Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“With so many people poisoned in one go, the problem naturally lies in the food.” Yan Chen sat across from Su Qian and continued, “Tianji Sect’s meals have always been separated for the elders and disciples. This time, it’s said that the elders’ food was tampered with. It seems like both the Sect Master and the elders ate the same batch of food and all fell victim. As for the ordinary disciples, they’re fine. The only ones affected were the cooks in the kitchen who accidentally ingested the leftovers.”

“I don’t know who poisoned them but it’s quite satisfying!” When Feng Tianjiao said this, she couldn’t help but smile. “I heard that the doctors in Tianji Sect can’t cure this potent toxin at all. They’re all anxious.”

“Then let them be anxious. It’s none of our concern.” After saying that, Su Qian raised her hand and patted Feng Tianjiao on the shoulder. “Since something happened in the kitchen, it seems that our dinner plans are ruined. If you two are free, go to the back mountain and find something to eat. We’ll cook something ourselves when you return.”

“Sister Su is right. People are iron, but the food is steel. Missing a meal is distressing. Regardless of what happening in Tianji Sect, we can’t neglect our stomachs.” Feng Tianjiao stood up with a bright smile and patted Yan Chen’s back. “Come, let’s go to the back mountain to find something to eat so that Sister Su can rest.”

After saying this, the two of them left together.

As soon as they left, Qing Zhu arrived at Su Qian’s door while she still had a cup of tea in her hand.

“Young Master Qing Zhu.” As soon as Qing Zhu appeared in front of the courtyard, Su Qian noticed his existence. She raised her eyebrows and asked, “Young Master Qing Zhu, what brings you here at this time?”

Qing Zhu appeared somewhat disheveled. He hesitated for a moment before walking in. He stood not far from Su Qian and bowed respectfully to her. “Elder Su, I beg for your help.”

A glint flashed across Su Qian’s phoenix eyes as she immediately understood what Qing Zhu meant. However, she pretended not to know. “I don’t quite understand Young Master Qing Zhu’s words.”

“Elder Su, I know that I shouldn’t have come to seek your help from my position. However, the number of people poisoned in our sect has spiraled out of control. Our doctors can’t cure the poison, so I had no choice but to come to Elder Su.” Qing Zhu looked very embarrassed. It was obvious that he had sacrificed all his dignity to come and beg Su Qian.

“How do you know that the poison wasn’t administered by me?” Su Qian raised her eyebrows and asked with a smile, “I’ve only been here for a few days, and your people from Tianji Sect have already been poisoned. Isn’t this a little too much of a coincidence?”

Hearing Su Qian’s words, Qing Zhu raised her head and glanced at her then lowered his head again. “Miss Su, let’s not joke around. I know that this matter has nothing to do with Miss Su.”

“How can you be so sure that it has nothing to do with me?” Su Qian was very surprised that Qing Zhu believed her without any hesitation.

Although she had never done it before, everyone in the world knew that she was a poison physician who was proficient in potent toxins. She had only been in Tianji Sect for a few days, and such a thing had happened. Most people would suspect her.

“Intuition.” Qing Zhu’s expression remained unwavering. He continued with a firm expression, “My intuition tells me that Elder Su wouldn’t do such a thing. And there’s another reason..”
