Chapter 75: The Treatment Plan

Earlier, Gu Zhuo had some concerns about the quality of the medicinal herbs the Cheng family acquired, but reality proved that Aunt Ye had good reason to make such bold guarantees at the time—she did possess genuine capability. However, what Gu Zhuo hadn’t expected was that arsenic would be the first to arrive, and its quality was surprisingly excellent.

Seeing the astonishment on her face, Aunt Ye felt a little embarrassed and explained, “Actually, arsenic is usually the hardest to obtain, but I was lucky. My father’s old friend had some realgar stored away, and after some special…”

Rumors about Wu Yuan’s affair were swirling everywhere. Bai Jun naturally heard some of them, and in the end, he dialed Bai Yu’s number—only for Shen Tong to answer unexpectedly.

Later, Ding Zhentian recounted some recent events to Ye Zhen, but Ye Zhen wasn’t in the mood for conversation. After all, Ding Zhentian’s sudden attack had caught Ye Zhen completely off guard. If he’d had a little warning, perhaps he wouldn’t have acted so rashly, but Ye Zhen couldn’t see where he’d made a mistake.

“Idiot, what are you thinking?” Li Jiaoyun, seeing Li Litian’s movements and recalling his earlier odd behavior, immediately understood everything.

“It’s best if it’s someone close, but they need professional knowledge of hypnosis. Psychological counseling would be better,” Dr. Liu emphasized.

It appeared this deep trench had originally been a farmer’s sewage pit, roughly thirty meters square. Now, cables inside were still burning, releasing a dense, suffocating, acrid smell.

“It’s going to hurt a bit, just bear with it.” Shen Tong used a dagger to cut open Shen Yun’s leg, and poisonous blood streamed down Shen Yun’s leg.

Li Zheng sighed quietly, muttering to himself, “Let’s hope they’re all safe. If not… then I’m finished…” With that, he bowed his head and resumed his silent, motionless posture.

“Well said. You’re a grown man now. Didn’t Big Sister choose some good girls for Ming Fan before? Let him go on some dates—maybe he’ll meet someone he likes.” Ming Lou seized the moment and grabbed Ming Fan, who now had no choice but to jump into this deep pit.

These matters were almost identical to what Feng Yi had described. Feng Yi had also told me that the Underworld belonged to another realm. No matter what happened on Earth—even if all parallel worlds’ timelines altered together—it wouldn’t affect the Underworld at all. The same was probably true for other realms.

The talent show was secondary for Xu Xuan; since he didn’t participate, this year’s contest wasn’t much different from his previous life.

At noon, I had lunch with William and Shuke. When we learned about Dong Tian’s wild night, everyone burst out laughing. Dong Tian suggested that after lunch, instead of returning to the dorm, we all nap in the classroom. Everyone agreed.

It seemed Qian Cao had taken to heart Dongfang Tiexin’s words and no longer insisted on finding someone to take her place in the trial. Instead, she quietly encouraged herself.

The elders of Medicine King Valley were enraged and all set out to hunt down Zhu Shengshou. They finally discovered the traitor about a hundred miles from Nine Spirits Gate.

“Yes, it was a reminder, but to be precise, it was a plea—Grandmother begged me to agree,” Chen Bin replied truthfully.

To be honest, carrying Lu Xue all the way, Chen Bin wasn’t troubled, but he was indeed a bit tired and thirsty.

Because it was Director Pa’s class, every student listened intently, afraid the director might catch them making a mistake.

Once the Daoist arts of Ancestor Chen Tuan condensed in the prayer beads, the Thunder Demon’s lingering resentment was instantly exposed and inevitably annihilated.

All along, this family had been supported by his wife Lin Xiaoxue’s job at the advertising agency. With him fooling around outside, there was hardly any money at home.

“The pitch-black thing in his hand is the bone of the Sonic Leopard,” Bai Ze communicated to Duan Tianyu.

Ghost Three sprang up from the ground, his face already deformed from Hua Shanmu’s fierce punch. He spat out a mouthful of blood, and with it, three or five large white teeth mixed in.
