Chapter 641 Where will he go?
Ye Qing'an returned to the city garrison with Yi Moxu. Xing Jun also arrived, bringing news from the Siyou Kingdom's camp.
"It is said that Liu Enze was not found in the Siyou Kingdom's camp."
Ye Qing'an and Yi Moxu exchanged a glance and both fell silent.
Ye Qing'an was silent for a moment: "Liu Enze taught me before to inject spiritual power into the stone door. The stone door has gaps, so spiritual power can smoothly enter through the gaps. Since spiritual power can be injected, then... smoke can also enter."
"Poisonous smoke?"
As soon as Ye Qingan said that, Yi Moxu guessed what Ye Qingan was thinking.
"Hmm." Ye Qing'an nodded: "Poisonous smoke."
He paused for a moment before adding, "The kind that's lethal."
"While I am indeed very curious about the secrets of Nightshade and Liu Enze, I feel that if we miss this opportunity and Liu Enze survives, it will have a significant impact on us."
"If we let the tiger return to the mountain, Liu Enze will inevitably become an obstacle for us in the future. It would be better to get rid of him as soon as possible."
"If Liu Enze has indeed prepared an illusion in that stone chamber, then we don't need to risk our lives. We can just use poison smoke to poison him to death."
"As for the secrets of Nightshade, we can investigate them if we have the chance in the future. If we don't have the chance, then let Liu Enze take all the secrets underground."
Upon hearing Ye Qing'an's words, Xing Jun couldn't help but turn and glance at her.
He simply took a step back silently.
He wasn't very familiar with this newly appointed mistress of the lord before, but now, listening to her speak, he inexplicably felt a sense of oppression and fear that he only felt when facing Yi Moxu.
Xing Jun was somewhat worried. One Venerable Lord was already difficult enough to deal with, and now another one had come along...
“That works.” Yi Moxu nodded. “I’ll go get the medicine.”
Ye Qing'an raised an eyebrow: "Aren't there any healers in the city? We'll have to trouble you, Lord..."
Yi Moxu chuckled lightly, ignoring her teasing: "I'll be right back."
Xing Jun waited until Yi Moxu left before explaining with a smile: "Madam, you may not know this, but although there are medical practitioners in the city, the Venerable Master is a master of both medicine and poison. The poisons he concocts are unique in the world, and no one else can cure them. To deal with someone like Liu Enze, we should naturally use the most potent poison."
Ye Qing'an nodded and smiled, "I see."
"Before Yi Moxu..." Ye Qing paused, "he probably didn't know any medical skills before he was exiled to Qian'an, right?"
"Yes." Xing Jun nodded, intending to make Ye Qing'an sympathize with Yi Moxu so that they would treat their Lord better. He sighed and said, "At that time, the Lord was punished by Yi Yun Kui, and lost all his power and had his meridians severed. It was Consort Xian who tried every means to find the strange doctor Meng Jiu and asked Meng Jiu to save the Lord."
"Later, when the Lord was recuperating from his injuries, because his tendons and veins were all severed and just reconnected, he was almost completely unable to move. Only two or three fingers were barely usable. When he had nothing to do, he would take Meng Jiu's medical books to read."
"Meng Jiu saw that he had exceptional talent, so he took him as his disciple and taught him everything he knew."
“Studying medicine is alright, but studying poison is something no human can do.” Xing Jun sighed, and once he started, he couldn’t stop: “Studying poison requires tasting poison. Several times, when the Lord was tasting poison, we almost thought he couldn’t be saved.”
"However, after his power developed to a certain extent, the Lord stopped testing poison on himself as much."
Ye Qing'an nodded: "I see."
Xing Jun nodded repeatedly in agreement: "It's truly not easy for the Lord to have survived until now..."
As Xing Jun was speaking, Yi Moxu walked in from outside, only glancing at him indifferently: "What nonsense are you spouting now?"
“I’m not talking nonsense. Although I may seem unreliable, I always tell the truth and never lie.”
"Your Excellency finished it so quickly?"
Yi Moxu nodded: "This is a poison I had already prepared beforehand. The materials are all readily available; it's just that I didn't finish it properly."
Yi Moxu looked up at Ye Qing'an and handed her a pill.
"Hmm?" Ye Qing'an raised an eyebrow.
"Antidote."
Ye Qing'an took it and swallowed the antidote directly.
Aren't you worried about what kind of food I'm giving you?
Ye Qing'an glanced at Yi Moxu: "Besides myself and my brain, what else do I have that is worth Your Excellency's painstaking efforts to obtain?"
Yi Moxu chuckled softly, "Madam is absolutely right, let's go."
Ye Qing'an and Yi Moxu then went to the secret passage and went straight to the outside of the secret chamber.
After dismissing everyone else, Yi Moxu lit the pill and waited for the poisonous smoke to rise. With a wave of his hand, the poisonous smoke seemed to obey perfectly, spreading across the stone wall and quickly finding the cracks in the stone door, seeping in through the four gaps.
The pill quickly burned out, and the poisonous smoke filled the stone chamber.
Ye Qing'an took two steps forward, infused his spiritual power, and used it to investigate the situation inside.
After a while, the two looked at each other.
"Alright," Yi Moxu said.
Ye Qing'an nodded, her brows furrowing slightly: "I didn't sense anything, not even the slightest trace of life inside."
In this situation, either the person inside is already dead.
Or maybe there's no one inside at all.
Yi Moxu nodded, raised his hand, and gently pressed on the stone wall, causing the stone door to lift up.
There was no one inside.
Yi Moxu raised his hand, and a fire dragon suddenly appeared. The fire dragon roared and rushed into the secret chamber. It circled the secret chamber but still found nothing.
The two then entered the secret room together.
The two searched the secret room but found nothing.
"It's definitely not in here."
Ye Qing'an frowned: "But how exactly did he leave this secret room?"
Yi Moxu shook his head: "I don't know."
"After he left, he didn't immediately return to the Siyou Kingdom's camp. So where did he go?"
Ye Qing'an asked as if talking to herself, but a thought suddenly flashed through her mind.
Ye Qing'an quickly raised her head, her gaze meeting Yi Moxu's. The two looked at each other, each seeing the other's thoughts in the other's eyes.
"Anzhi City".
"In the city."
Two voices sounded at the same time.
Yi Moxu pursed his lips: "It was my oversight. When Jiuxiao said that Liu Enze could not be found in this secret room, I should have thought of this possibility. But now there are quite a few people in Anzhi City. With Liu Enze's abilities, it would not be difficult for him to hide himself and find out the truth in a crowded place."
"If he has now infiltrated Anzhi City, it will probably be difficult to find him again."
