Chapter 503: Exposing Yu Guang
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Chen Zikuang frowned as he looked at Yu Guang hesitantly. One point that Yu Guang was right about was that they first needed evidence in order to prove that someone had the intention to harm others. If it was anyone else, his wrath would have already descended upon the major suspect. He would have used his original “would rather wrongly kill than let go” attitude to capture the suspect and severely torture them.
But Yu Guang was a member of the Medical Sect. His identity was special. It was inappropriate for them to make a move on him before they had concrete evidence.
After all, the Medical Sect had a high prestige in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. They had produced generation after generation of miracle physicians, treating and curing the sick as well as saving the world and lives. A physician from the Medical Sect would always receive the respect of others under normal circumstances. Given that he had no evidence, simply arresting Yu Guang would not only damage the reputation of the Intentionless Sect if word got out, but would also indirectly offend the Medical Sect.
“The evidence is indeed not simple. The toxicity of the cyan poison is mild. It is unable to continuously have an effect. Only by constantly poisoning the patient can the poisoner maintain the effects of the poison. You will have surely carried the poison on you. A quick search will naturally reveal all,” Mo Wen said plainly as he crossed his arms and looked playfully at Yu Guang.
Only by continuously poisoning Old Grandfather Chen could he maintain the effects of the poison at ten times its normal level. So, he must have hidden the poison on himself. By asking someone to go up and search him, they could easily locate it.
He did not believe that this Yu Guang had items like the storage ring. So, he could not hide the poison on himself. Also, even if he had a storage ring, Mo Wen could also see through it, so he wasn’t afraid of Yu Guang running off.
As for why Mo Wen was certain that the poisoner was Yu Guang, it was not only because of Yu Guang’s attitude from before but also because this type of poison could only maintain its effects with constant consumption. The only person who fulfilled such criteria was Yu Guang, who was a killer that was a doctor.
“You b*llsh*t, that’s a bloody lie!” Yu Guang’ expression instantly turned pale. He looked at Mo Wen as though he was looking at a monster. This youth actually knew so much about this type of toxin. It was as though he had already researched it. But he had only come over to diagnose less than fifteen minutes ago. How could he possibly know so much? He even completely understood the special traits of the poison.
Yu Guang was certain that few people knew about this poison. Even he only knew about this poison’s concoction method by chance. He believed that he was also the only person in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension who knew about this poison. Even if others did know, there would certainly be no more than five. The chances of Mo Wen being one of them were too slim.
There had once been a traitor in the Medical Sect. This traitor was an absolute genius. He had learned his set of absolute medical skills from within the Medical Sect, but his heart was twisted and he did not walk the path of righteousness. Not only did he not use his medical skills to save people, he instead liked to research poisons which would harm people. The cyan poison was a poison researched by this traitor a few centuries ago. Now, the people who knew about it were very, very few.
“Whether or not it is a bloody lie, we will know once we check.” Mo Wen laughed coldly. With a flash of his silhouette, he pounced on Yu Guang, directly attacking him. He had no interest in Yu Guang’s nonsense.
“Deputy Sect Leader Chen, this man is actually acting violently without any evidence. It is practically no different than attempting murder. As the Intentionless Sect deputy sect leader, are you going to interfere or not?” Yu Guang shouted loudly as his expression changed slightly. He had not expected that the youth would actually start attacking as he said he would. He did not give Yu Guang any time to consider countermeasures.
“Mo Wen is a guest of the Intentionless Sect. The Intentionless Sect has no authority to question his behavior. If he is against you, that is just your personal grievances with him. It is unrelated to the Intentionless Sect.” Chen Zikuang stood in his original position and did not move. His expression was calm, looking as though the matter was unrelated to him.
“Since this matter is unrelated to the Intentionless Sect and just my personal grievances with this brat, then I believe the Intentionless Sect will not intervene in this matter between us? This brat has been extremely arrogant and discourteous. If I accidentally kill him, I hope Deputy Sect Leader Chen will remain as an outsider to this matter.” Yu Guang’s eyes flashed with a savage look. Chen Zikuang’s words had made a sense of joy well up inside him. The brat had actually dared to attack him. He was practically seeking death. Yu Guang did not believe that a youth who was not even twenty would have much ability. Although he was a man of medicine, he also had Qi Nucleation realm cultivation. If he could not even handle a youth, he would practically be a joke.
Right now he really wanted to silence Mo Wen. The youth was too great of a threat to him. He believed that once he killed Mo Wen, he had the ability to deceive Chen Zikuang and keep the poison completely hidden away. But if this youth was alive, then it would be hard for him to hide away the poison, as the youth was clearly very familiar with it.
“If you can kill him, I will naturally not interfere.” Chen Zikuang crossed his arms and laughed coldly. How could Mo Wen be easy to kill?
Mo Wen also flashed a cold smile. With one step, his silhouette appeared in front of Yu Guang, as though he had teleported.
“Brat, die for me. You refuse to walk the path to heaven, instead you are trying to force your way into a doorless hell.” Seeing Mo Wen appear in front of him in an instant, Yu Guang’s eyes flashed a wild look. He suddenly attacked, furiously sending a punch roaring towards Mo Wen’s head. He was proficient in medicine and healing, not battling. But after all, he had Qi Nucleation realm cultivation, so a simple punch was more than enough to crush any Sea of Qi realm ancient martial art practitioner.
However, his punch had not extended far when a frightening pressure enveloped him like a storm surging out. Yu Guang’s figure froze. His expression suddenly froze on his face. The terrifying aura had actually made him unable to move.
“How can this be!” Yu Guang shouted out in shock. His eyes wore a look of disbelief. How was it possible for this youth to have such frightening cultivation! He was just a youth! How could this be?
Even Chen Zikuang was shocked. The pressure seemed to not be beneath the Golden Elixir realm. It was comparable to that of a beginning stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner. He never imagined that Mo Wen actually had such frightening cultivation. Didn’t Zi’er say before this that Mo Wen was just a Qi Nucleation realm ancient martial art practitioner? How could he suddenly reach the Golden Elixir realm?
Chen Zikuang naturally did not doubt his own daughter. But he was also aware that something had certainly gone wrong. Maybe Zi’er had also been kept in the dark. He could not believe that a person who was at the Qi Nucleation realm a month ago could reach the Golden Elixir realm within a month. It was practically nonsense.
Mo Wen extended a hand and directly caught Yu Guang in his palm. The corner of his mouth curled into a cruel smile. With the flick of a finger, tens of golden needles flew out, directly shooting into Yu Guang’s body.
The next moment, Yu Guang seemed to have fallen into Avichi. He started screaming shrilly. Even those who did not know what it meant to be better off dead than alive immediately knew once they saw Yu Guang now.
Chen Zikuang frowned. Yu Guang was still a member of the Medical Sect. He still came to Intentionless Sect to treat the old grandfather. If they could find incriminating evidence on him, that was still fine. If they could not and he had been tortured for no reason, the Intentionless Sect would most probably not be able to escape responsibility.
However, he did not say anything. This matter involved the safety of his father’s life. With such a serious matter, not one suspect could be let go.
“Stop...ah...ouch...b*stard....stop it I said...stop...” Yu Guang kept on screaming. In less than fifteen minutes, he had already softened up. He kept begging for mercy, and had admitted to poisoning the old grandfather.
“Soft boned.” Mo Wen coldly smiled. He probed slightly with his palm, then took a paper bag from Yu Guang’s clothes and simply threw it onto a table nearby.
Since Yu Guang had to administer the poison every day, the poison would surely be hidden in a place where he could easily retrieve it. It would not be too hidden, otherwise, it would be troublesome for himself. Mo Wen did not need him to admit it. He could just directly find the poison.
Chen Zikuang’s eyes narrowed. He walked with large steps to the table and opened the paper bag. In the paper bag was a smaller package. And in that smaller package was some green powdery substance.
“As expected, it was you, you crook!” When Chen Zikuang saw this, rage flared up in him. He was so angry that his blood began to boil. Wasn’t the green powdery substance the poison from before? This Yu Guang appeared to be treating old grandfather on the surface, but in secret, he was actually always poisoning him. Chen Zikuang could not wait to quickly kill Yu Guang.
For the Intentionless Sect and Chen Zikuang, this was a huge insult! It turned out that the culprit had been beside the old grandfather all along.
“Mo Wen, please give him to me. I want to skin him and pull out his tendons, then grind his bones into dust.” Chen Zikuang was purple with rage. He had treated Yu Guang as an honored guest. He had always hoped that Yu Guang would manage to cure his father. But he had never imagined that he had allowed such an ungrateful soul to be by his side.
Mo Wen casually threw Yu Guang at Chen Zikuang’s feet. The corners of his mouth curled into a cold smile. He crossed his arms, appearing as if he was watching a show.
“Zikuang, you interrogate him and see why he wanted to harm me. See whether it is related to the Sacred Flame Sect.” Old Grandfather Chen opened his eyes again and slowly woke up. This old grandfather looked as though he was unconscious, but in reality, he was more conscious at times than people who seemed to be fully conscious. Once there were any stirrings, he would be aware of it.
Upon hearing this, Chen Zikuang seemed to have figured out the key to the problem. Yu Guang was only a doctor from the Medical Sect. He had no grievances with the Intentionless Sect, so why would he secretly poison the old grandfather? There was certainly some conspiracy at play.
As expected, after a round of inquiry, Chen Zikuang discovered that this Yu Guang, who was from the Medical Sect, had always had connections with the Sacred Flame Sect. When Old Grandfather Chen was injured and poisoned, Yu Guang coincidentally appeared in the Intentionless City by the arrangements of the Sacred Flame Sect.
It could be said that back when Old Grandfather Chen was in the Beast’s Lair and was heavily injured, returning poisoned, the Sacred Flame Sect had already arranged for a series of conspiracies and traps. All of this was to eliminate the Intentionless Sect and devour its centuries of heritage.
Once this was all revealed, Yu Guang of course faced disaster. Chen Zikuang did not kill him on the spot, instead locking him up. As for how he wanted to deal with Yu Guang, no one else knew.
“Little friend Mo, I thank you for your help in this matter. Even I was kept in the dark. The members of the Sacred Flame Sect are certainly vicious.” After Yu Guang was taken away, Old Grandfather Chen turned his gaze to Mo Wen. He had a look of gratitude in his eyes.
