Alert! Miracle doctor released from prison
Chapter 361 The Storm Is Brewing
Chen Huo remained calm.
It appears to be a compromise, but in reality, it's a strategic retreat.
Zhu Junchen knew nothing about his abilities.
Once refined, the Breakthrough Pill can help people break through their cultivation levels, but it can also be deadly.
And it will also prevent him from noticing.
of course.
Agreeing too readily is also not good.
"but……"
Chen Huo said calmly, "How can you believe that you won't kill me after I refine the Breakthrough Pill? If I can't even protect my own life, why would I refine a pill for you?"
"Brother Chen."
Zhu Junchen, feigning a close relationship with Chen Huo, said with a broad smile, "My Zhu family is no match for your Goddess Pavilion. Why make a powerful enemy? Don't you think that makes sense?"
"This reason is not sufficient."
"Isn't that enough?"
Zhu Junchen snorted and said, "My goal is to improve my cultivation and strengthen the Zhu family. How can the family grow stronger if I create so many enemies? I offered you some items to refine pills, and you also benefited. We don't have any irreconcilable conflicts, do we?"
Chen Huo looked thoughtful.
He nodded after a moment.
"It seems I have no choice."
"Indeed, there aren't any. If you need any other medicinal herbs, write down the prescription. I'll also send someone to collect the other herbs. By the way, you'd better not try anything funny with the herbs; I'll have someone test the elixir."
Zhu Junchen said with a hint of warning.
……
Dingyang Central Hospital.
Yuan Gang looked at Yao Chong'an's corpse with a complex expression.
He never expected that this senior, whom he greatly respected and who was highly praised in the official government, would suddenly turn against him and cooperate with Wu Hao, intending to coerce Chen Huo into refining a life-extending elixir.
He never expected that Chen Huo was prepared.
They tampered with the Lesser Rejuvenation Pill.
They said Yao Chong'an wouldn't live to see the dawn.
He actually died before dawn this morning.
"He was wary of us from the very beginning."
Yuan Gang sighed softly and said.
He asked himself if he had been completely honest with Chen Huo.
Little did he know that Chen Huo was on guard against him.
I felt somewhat sad.
He Chenglong's injuries had mostly healed, and he already knew what had happened last night. Hearing this, he shook his head and said, "He's not wary of you, he's wary of Yao Chong'an. If he treated you the same way, would you still be standing here talking?"
Yuan Gang was slightly taken aback upon hearing this.
He began to reflect on his past interactions with Chen Huo.
"You're too caught up in the situation to see the truth."
He Chenglong said calmly, "Our official martial arts department has been fighting with the major martial arts families for countless years. We have infiltrated each other and are intertwined. This is something everyone knows."
"Chen Huo is familiar with you; you've known each other for more than just a day or two. He trusts you, but what's wrong with being wary of others, especially those whose strength is enough to overwhelm him?"
"Most importantly, he knew Yao Chong'an was coming, yet he didn't ask other experts to keep him in check. Isn't that the greatest trust he could place in you? If it weren't for you, would he have accepted it?"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Gang's expression turned solemn.
He nodded heavily.
"You're right!"
"Enough of this. My life was given to me by Chen Huo, and I will not let this go! Have you found out who kidnapped Chen Huo and where he went?" He Chenglong said coldly, his eyes blazing with murderous intent.
His cultivation level was the same as Yuan Gang's, both at the fifth level of the Emperor Realm.
After being injured, his cultivation level was greatly reduced, and he once fell to the first level of the Emperor Realm.
After being treated by Chen Huo, he has now recovered to the fourth level of the Emperor Realm.
The return to the top is imminent.
"No!"
Yuan Gang gritted his teeth and said, "The other side has clearly made ample preparations, and their counter-surveillance methods are extremely sophisticated. Our people haven't found any valuable clues yet!"
"Then continue sending people to search!"
He Chenglong said coldly, then changed the subject, "And Wu Hao, are the higher-ups planning to continue to tolerate this? I certainly can't. This time, we must get an explanation for Chen Huo!"
If it weren't for Wu Hao, the authorities wouldn't have assigned Yao Chong'an to protect Chen Huo.
If it weren't for Wu Hao, Yao Chong'an wouldn't have betrayed them.
If the Wu family hadn't been the first to snatch the Crimson Flame Heart Sunflower, none of this would have happened.
All the trouble was caused by the Wu family.
"The higher-ups are still holding a meeting to discuss it."
Yuan Gang said somewhat angrily, then coldly added, "I don't care about anything else, I can't stand it anymore, I've decided to go after the Wu family! Otherwise, how will I face Chen Huo in the future?"
"Good brother, let's do it together!"
……
The Gong family.
Gong Jinghan was tending to her grafted peonies, which she had just brought from the Central Plains, in the villa. The brightly blooming flowers were full of vitality, and she loved the colorful and vibrant feeling.
Just then.
A young man jogged over.
"Grandma, Grandma, something's happened!"
"What kind of behavior is this, all loud and boisterous? You should learn from that kid Chen Huo; no matter what happens, you need to stay calm and composed." Gong Jinghan glared at her most beloved grandson and said.
This younger generation of mine is far inferior to Chen Huo.
"Grandma, it's Chen Huo who's in trouble!"
"What?"
Gong Jinghan's face darkened, the shovel in his hand shattering into pieces. He hurriedly asked, "That kid is so cunning, how could he get into trouble? What happened? Tell me in detail!"
……
Jiangcheng.
Goddess Pavilion.
A cold shout suddenly rang out from the secluded chamber where Pavilion Master Bai Lingyuan was in seclusion.
"Send people to search! Send everyone from the Goddess Pavilion out!"
"Don't come back until Chen Huo is found!"
"Tell the officials that if they don't give me an explanation this time, I, Bai Lingyuan, will turn against them!"
"That old bastard Wu Hao thinks he's invincible just because he's only at the seventh level of the Emperor Realm? Shu Yue, come with me to the Wu family. Today I'm going to wipe them out!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a middle-aged woman with an elegant and noble demeanor stepped out. Her face was ashen, her eyes were filled with murderous intent, and she exuded a sharp aura.
Song Shuyue followed beside her and said in a deep voice, "Sect Master, you are at a crucial time to break through to the seventh level of the Emperor Realm. It's not advisable for you to leave seclusion! Leave this matter to me!"
"You think you can beat Wu Hao?" Bai Lingyuan glared at Song Shuyue and asked.
"But, Pavilion Master, you..." Song Shuyue gave a dry laugh, but swallowed the words back down.
They didn't say it directly.
But the meaning is clear.
Bai Lingyuan hasn't broken through to the seventh level of the Emperor Realm yet, so she probably can't beat Wu Hao.
"Breaking through to the seventh rank is just a hair's breadth away. I'm in my prime, while Wu Hao is nothing but a decrepit old man. What is there to fear? Only by eliminating him can we deter those who have kidnapped Chen Huo and prevent them from causing trouble!"
After saying that, he quickened his pace and walked away.
As Bai Lingyuan passed by Yu Ji and Gu Yingxue, who were kneeling and trembling with fear, she paused for a moment and said calmly:
"This isn't your fault. Come with me to the Wu family to kill them, so the world will know the consequences of messing with the young master of my Goddess Pavilion!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Ji and Gu Yingxue quickly stood up and followed behind Bai Lingyuan.
Their pretty faces were frosty, and their eyes revealed murderous intent.
