“Tell me about it,” Su Qian said with a smile as she looked at Qing Zhu calmly.
“Elder Su has always been fearless. Clearly, you’ve been wrongly accused, yet you’re willing to stay at Tianji Sect. I think there must be some special reason. I originally thought that you might be here for revenge, but if you wanted to make a move, you could have done it on the first day you arrived at Tianji Sect instead of waiting until today. Therefore, I believe in Elder Su.” Qing Zhu’s every word came from the bottom of his heart.
Su Qian was skilled at reading people, so she could be certain that Qing Zhu wasn’t lying.
“Qing Zhu, you have a way with words.” After saying this, Su Qian slowly stood up and said calmly, “Speaking of which, I still owe Young Master Qing Zhu a favor.”
Knowing that Su Qian’s words were an agreement, Qing Zhu’s eyes lit up with ecstasy. He cupped his hands respectfully at Su Qian and said, “Thank you, Elder Su. May I ask Elder Su to follow me to the Elder’s Pavilion?”
The Elder’s Pavilion was where the elders usually resided. Now that Qin Guang, Yun Xiao, and the others were all in the Elder’s Pavilion, the place was already in chaos. If this dragged on, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Su Qian’s eyes flickered as she shook her head and rejected Qing Zhu. “No rush. The Sect Master and elders have strong abilities and are more resistant to toxins. Their ability to resist poisons is undoubtedly stronger than that of ordinary people. There is no distinction between n.o.ble and humble people. The lives of those chefs are crucial in my eyes. I think we should first go and check with those chefs in the kitchen first.”
Thinking about the chefs in distress and the fact that there would be no one to cook in the future, Su Qian felt deeply concerned.
Qing Zhu naturally listened to Su Qian. After hearing this, he hurriedly nodded and said without hesitation, “Yes, we’ll go wherever Elder Su says.”
Seeing Qing Zhu quickly leave with Su Qian, Qian Rong, as a servant, naturally had to chase after her.
However, before Qian Rong could do anything, Xiao Yan’s cold gaze swept over.
Qian Rong was so frightened by this gaze that her neck shrank. She didn’t even dare to breathe loudly. Her hair stood on end as she watched Xiao Yan catch up to Su Qian. She obediently hugged Black Ball and didn’t dare to go forward.
At the same time, on the top floor of the Elder’s Pavilion, in the room where Qin Guang was.
The continuous sound of whip striking echoed in the room, but Qin Guang paid no attention, bent over, and continued to vomit uncontrollably.
“Ughh, ugh, ugh!” Qin Guang almost vomited out all his bile. In just four hours, he had lost a lot of weight. A strange gray color appeared between his eyebrows, large patches of blisters had appeared on his arms, and blood continued to flow from his nostrils.
Qin Guang raised his hand and touched the blood that was flowing out of his nose. He then fiercely ordered his subordinates, “Beat this useless thing to death with all your might!”
“Yes!” The guard wielding the whip vigorously continued to strike Hei Wu on the ground, leaving no patch of unbruised flesh on his body.
“Sob, sob, sob, I was wrong. I truly know I was wrong. Please, cough! Sect Master, please spare my life.” Hei Wu was also badly poisoned. At this moment, he fell to the ground in pain and squirmed his body. Even the blisters on his body had been whipped into a b.l.o.o.d.y mess. Other than blood, there were traces of vomit on his body. He curled up his body and begged for mercy.
Qin Guang glared angrily at Hei Wu, his eyes almost spewing fire. “You, you useless trash, you better explain clearly to me.. What exactly have you done!”
