Reborn Song Qingshu: Besieging Bright Peak at the Start

Chapter 63 Fan Yao Unleashes His Power

Now let's talk about Fan Yao.

After poisoning Hebi Weng, Sun Sanhui, and Li Sicui, he confirmed that the three were completely dead.

He bent down and searched Hebi Weng's body carefully, but couldn't find the Ten Fragrant Softening Powder.

Just when he thought the medicine wasn't on him, he discovered that his ever-present iron staff seemed to hold a secret.

Fan Yao picked up the iron staff and felt around the crane's beak with his fingertips for a moment. Sure enough, he found a thin slit. He twisted it with his fingertips and the crane's beak opened with a snap. Inside was powder, which was the Ten Fragrant Softening Powder.

He immediately put away the Ten Fragrant Softening Powder and stuffed the corpses under the bed or into the cabinet. He didn't have time to deal with the corpses, and no one would suspect him for a while. By the time the corpses were discovered, he would have already fled.

He locked the doors and windows, and quietly crept to the front of Lu Zhangke's house. He pressed his ear against the door and listened for a moment, confirming that there was no movement.

He then gently pushed open the door and slipped inside.

As soon as he entered, he saw Lu Zhangke lying on the edge of the bed, his clothes disheveled, blood streaming from his seven orifices, but with a happy smile on his face.

Han Ji on the bed had already woken up. She lay naked in the brocade quilt, unable to move or make a sound. It was clear that her acupoints and speech points had been sealed.

When Fan Yao came in, her eyes first showed fear, then a pleading light appeared in them as she looked at him expectantly, blinking repeatedly.

Fan Yao ignored her pleas for help, stepped forward, pointed at her, and Han Ji's eyes rolled back as she fainted again.

Without looking at it for long, he turned around and searched for the antidote on Lu Zhangke's body. With the experience from Hebi Weng's side, he directly picked up Lu Zhangke's deer antler staff, twisted off one of the antlers, and sure enough, found the antidote inside.

Following the same method, he stuffed Lu Zhangke's corpse into the cabinet, then after thinking for a moment, he wrapped Han Ji in a quilt, thinking that Han Ji might be used as a hostage later.

After packing, Fan Yao, carrying his bedding, locked the doors and windows and headed towards the pagoda.

The guardian of the pagoda was Wuwang Apu, Lu Zhangke's eldest disciple. When he saw Ku Toutuo approaching with his bedding in his arms, he hesitated for a moment and stopped Fan Yao to ask, "Master Ku, what brings you here?"

Fan Yao remained completely calm, gesturing with his hands to convey his meaning:

The princess was worried about the defenses of the tower, so she specially asked him to move into the tower to guard it day and night. The bedding in his arms was his.

Uwang Apu hesitated, then reached out to lift the blanket: "Master Ku, according to the rules, this package needs to be—"

Before he could finish speaking, Fan Yao's eyes sharpened, and he stepped forward, gently pressing his hand on Wuwang Apu's shoulder with such force that Wuwang Apu's legs went weak.

He then made a few cold gestures, implying that even his master, Lu Zhangke, had to show him respect, and that a junior like him dared to question him.

Uwang Apu swallowed hard. He knew that the princess often consulted this man about martial arts, and that he held a high position in the palace. He had seen him go out with the princess before, so he assumed that the princess had indeed given such instructions.

Now, overwhelmed by his imposing aura, he immediately cowered and chuckled dryly, saying, "It was my rudeness, Master Ku, please come in, please come in."

Once inside the tower, Fan Yao first gave the antidote to Zhang Wuji and the other two, then went to each of the sects' cells to distribute it, including Kong Wen,

After Song Yuanqiao and the others took the medicine, they inevitably had to spend some time explaining it to them.

Although the people from various sects were initially skeptical, they were eventually persuaded by Fan Yao, and the process went relatively smoothly.

But when it came to the Emei Sect, he was really furious. Each sect leader had a separate room. He pushed open the door to Miejue's room and said, "This is the antidote. Take it quickly. Once your internal strength is restored, we can all work together to break out."

To everyone's surprise, Extinction looked at her with suspicion: "Who are you? Why did you give me the antidote?"

Fan Yao didn't think much of it; other sect leaders would ask the same question. So he said, "I am Fan Yao, the Right Envoy of the Brightness Sect. I have stolen the antidote and come here to save the nun."

But Miejue was furious upon hearing this, as she had always been irreconcilably opposed to the Ming Cult.

This was because, in her early years, her senior brother Gu Hongzi and Yang Xiao had become enemies.

The two agreed to a duel, and Gu Hongzi was severely injured by Yang Xiao. On his way back to his sect, he became increasingly angry and fell ill and died in just three days. Later, Yang Xiao even abducted Ji Xiaofu, which made Miejue hate the Ming Cult even more.

"You treacherous villains of the demonic cult! They still dare to toy with me!"

Extinction was furious, her eyes filled with hatred that almost overflowed.

Fan Yao also got angry.

He went to great lengths to steal the antidote, risking his life, but the old nun not only didn't appreciate it, she also cursed the evil cult as traitors.

He sneered and said, "That's right! I've come specifically to send you to your death!"

Extinction was already prepared to die, but upon hearing this, she calmed down and said coldly, "Very well, you don't need to do anything. Just lend me your short sword, and I'll end it myself."

"Please summon my disciple Zhou Zhiruo; I have a few last words to say."

Fan Yao had only spoken in anger, but he hadn't expected the old nun to be so fierce and to attempt suicide on the spot.

He was immediately put on hold. The sect leader repeatedly instructed him to make peace with the six major sects. If he were to let Miejue die here, the feud would only deepen.

He suppressed his anger, snorted coldly, and turned to go next door to bring Zhou Zhiruo over, thinking that he would let the master and disciple talk for a while, and then persuade the old nun to take the medicine after she calmed down.

When Zhou Zhiruo arrived, Miejue told him to wait outside the door, and she only needed to say a few words.

Although Fan Yao found it troublesome, he still patiently went out the door.

Inside the house, Miejue truly harbored a death wish, entrusting her orphan to Zhou Zhiruo.

She entrusted the sect leader's iron ring to Zhou Zhiruo because although Zhou Zhiruo's martial arts skills were not as good as her other senior sisters at the moment, she knew that Zhou Zhiruo had good martial arts talent and a high potential, and that she would definitely be able to carry forward the Emei martial arts in the future.

Then, Miejue told Zhou Zhiruo the secrets of the swords and sabers.

Furthermore, she could tell from the light that Zhang Wuji still harbored feelings for Zhou Zhiruo, so she ordered Zhou Zhiruo to pretend to approach Zhang Wuji in order to obtain the swords.

Once they obtain the swords, they must sever all ties with Zhang Wuji.

Therefore, she made Zhou Zhiruo swear a poisonous oath.

If she obtains the sword and does not sever ties with Zhang Wuji, her children will be slaves for generations, and her children will be prostitutes for generations.

Even if she becomes a ghost after her death, she will not let Zhou Zhiruo go.

Zhou Zhiruo was so frightened that she trembled all over, cried, kowtowed three times, and swore an oath as instructed.

The master and disciple embraced and wept, filling the room with sorrow.

Fan Yao waited and waited outside the door, feeling that time was passing by. He had already wasted a lot of time giving the antidote to the other sects, and he was afraid that things would change if he delayed any longer.

He couldn't wait any longer, so he kicked open the door and strode inside.

Upon entering, one sees the master and disciple weeping together, genuinely making their final arrangements.

Fan Yao was both angry and speechless. He patiently said, "Now that you've seen your disciple, can you take the antidote?"

Extinction helped Zhou Zhiruo up, wiped away her tears, and coldly looked at Fan Yao: "Enough nonsense, bring me your sword! This old nun will kill myself right here!"

People can get so angry they laugh when they're speechless. This old nun is truly stubborn and incorrigible, always threatening to commit suicide.

He sneered, "I don't even need a short sword. Abbess, you truly have keen insight. My scheme has finally been seen through."

I have poison in my hand, poison upon poison. Do you have the guts to take it? Once it enters your stomach, your intestines will be torn apart in no time, and you will die a gruesome death!

Extinction could not withstand such provocation. Without saying a word, she took the powder from his hand and swallowed it.

Zhou Zhiruo: "Master! Master! Master!"

As she screamed, Fan Yao grabbed her cheek and said, "Here, you try some too!"

Before anyone could react, he poured all the powder into Zhou Zhiruo's mouth.

Fan Yao clapped his hands and laughed loudly: "Shaolin, Wudang, Kunlun, and Kongtong have all fallen for the Ming Cult's scheme!"

From this day forward, the Ming Cult will rule the martial world; who dares disobey?

After saying that, he turned and left.

It doesn't matter if Miejue dies, but Zhou Zhiruo, on whom she placed great hopes, has also been harmed by villains!

She felt utterly hopeless!
