Lin Tianyi sneered inwardly.
Could it be that Xu Fengqiu wasn't the one poisoned?
How utterly ridiculous.
Why didn't the Xu family announce who was poisoned when they summoned physicians from across the land?
Everyone is just guessing it's Xu Fengqiu?
Because they don't want people to think something has happened to Xu Fengqiu.
Especially now, with the Xu family and the Holy Yao Empire facing the Great Emperor, the Northern Underworld Empire.
Naturally, they don't want everyone to know that Xu Fengqiu, who can deal with Lin Tianyi, is in trouble.
Lin Tianyi understood this all too well.
Because he was certain that something had happened to Xu Fengqiu.
Moreover, this wasn't a poison, but a curse.
It just looks like a poison to normal people.
But there's no way they could ever find that out.
"Should I go and investigate myself?"
Lin Tianyi pondered.
After all, the Xu family is summoning physicians from across the land to detoxify.
He could completely go as a physician.
That's right!
Anyway, the only one he's wary of is Xu Fengqiu.
Ensuring the success of this matter is more important than anything.
Although he now believes that Xu Fengqiu has definitely been hit.
Isn't the reason he hasn't returned to the Northern Underworld Empire just to confirm this?
...
After disguising himself, Lin Tianyi also arrived at the Xu family.
"Nangong Ye, from the Apocalypse Empire, heard that someone in the Xu family is suffering from a severe poison and came to try his hand."
Lin Tianyi cupped his fist in greeting.
"Please, someone inside will take you there."
Lin Tianyi bowed and then entered the Xu family.
Then, he arrived at the Young Master Peak.
After all, he had seen Xu Fengqiu in the Xu family, and he knew that this was the Xu family's Young Master Peak.
Arriving on the peak.
There were quite a few physicians waiting here.
Seeing this, Lin Tianyi was overjoyed.
It seems it's true.
These physicians were also chatting about something.
"Have you gone in to see? What's the situation?"
An old man shook his head: "A type of poison never seen before, it has already exceeded this old man's knowledge."
"Yes, the toxicity is extremely strong, I estimate… it's difficult."
"Alas, what a pity."
"What are the effects of the poison?"
"The effects of this poison…"
Lin Tianyi was overjoyed when he heard their conversation.
The so-called effects of the poison they were talking about were the effects of the Ghost Fiend Death Spirit Curse.
It just looks like a poison, but in reality, it's not a poison at all.
After waiting for a long time, Lin Tianyi was finally called.
Lin Tianyi walked into the room.
Inside the room, a figure was lying on the bed.
There were curtains blocking the view.
Lin Tianyi sat beside him.
"Please extend your hand."
Xu Fengqiu's hand was extended.
Lin Tianyi examined it.
It's Xu Fengqiu!
Although this aura is very weak, one can feel that this is definitely a Celestial Emperor.
This is definitely Xu Fengqiu without a doubt.
"Does this lord feel any discomfort?"
Xu Fengqiu's voice came: "A certain top-level poison, the whole body is weak and powerless, and there is a severe stinging pain in the internal organs…"
What Xu Fengqiu said was the effect brought about by the Ghost Fiend Death Spirit Curse.
Moreover, this voice was Xu Fengqiu's.
Lin Tianyi sighed: "I'm sorry, I am powerless to help."
After saying that, Lin Tianyi walked out.
Then, he left the Xu family!
"爽! !" (Shuang!! / Awesome!!)
Lin Tianyi came to a deserted place and shouted loudly at the front, venting the comfort in his heart.
It's so damn comfortable!
This Xu Fengqiu is finished.
Moreover, he himself thinks that this is some kind of poison.
Then it's even more impossible for him to survive.
Thinking about it, that's right.
It inherently looks like being poisoned, and there aren't many people who understand curses.
Isn't that a dead end?
"Let's go."
Lin Tianyi returned to the Northern Underworld Empire with satisfaction.
After returning to the Northern Underworld Empire, he only needs to wait a few days and directly attack.
This time, there will be no accidents.
Xu Fengqiu has methods.
But now, do you still have the mind, energy, and ability to condense formations and create Xuan Tian poisonous weapons and the like?
"In the end, I still win! Xu Fengqiu, originally you were indeed heaven-defying enough and powerful enough, and you could indeed go very far, but unfortunately, you met me, born at the wrong time."
...
Time flies.
Ten days have passed.
And the Xu family has also stopped summoning physicians from across the land.
Northern Underworld Empire.
Lin Tianyi sat above the high hall.
In front of him were the powerhouses of the royal family and the sect masters of more than a dozen powerful forces in the Northern Underworld Empire who were willing to follow him, Lin Tianyi, on the expedition.
Today, he also gathered them together.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Everyone saluted one after another.
In the previous battle, Lin Tianyi suffered a crushing defeat.
The myth of invincibility was broken, and his reputation plummeted.
But after all, the foundation was still there, and his own forces suffered minimal losses.
Therefore, they are still willing to follow Lin Tianyi on the expedition.
Mainly, they are indeed afraid of Lin Tianyi.
Lin Tianyi lost, but that doesn't mean they can challenge Lin Tianyi.
Lin Tianyi's royal power is still very strong.
"Everyone, I was designed by this cunning Xu Fengqiu before, which caused this emperor to suffer a crushing defeat. This emperor has also reflected a lot these days."
Lin Tianyi looked down at them from above.
"Your Majesty, victory and defeat are commonplace in military affairs, not to mention that this Xu Fengqiu is indeed very strange, but as Your Majesty said, temporary success or failure cannot determine a hero. Can't he, Xu Fengqiu, lose? He will also lose."
"That's right, Your Majesty, this Xu Fengqiu seems to be in trouble."
"I heard, should it be the handiwork of Medicine God Mountain? I heard that he was suffering from a severe poison, although they didn't say that Xu Fengqiu was poisoned, but it must be him."
"Didn't you hear, everyone? It has already been cured."
"Really? It has already been cured?"
"Yes, just yesterday, there were still some physicians who went to the Xu family, but the Xu family said it had already been cured, so they didn't need to take action."
"…"
They were also discussing.
Hearing that Xu Fengqiu might be fine.
Their mood became heavy again.
They themselves came with a feeling that something had happened to Xu Fengqiu.
If that were the case, then there would be no risks or accidents in this battle.
But now…
"嗤 ——" (Chi —— /嗤——)
Lin Tianyi sneered.
"Do you believe that Xu Fengqiu is really well?" Lin Tianyi asked.
"This?"
Those powerhouses looked at each other in surprise.
"What does Your Majesty mean?"
Lin Tianyi said: "This Xu Fengqiu is not well, but most likely already dead. The Xu family released the news that Xu Fengqiu had recovered just to cover people's eyes and deceive us, to give us pressure."
"What?"
They looked at each other in disbelief.
"The poison of this Xu Fengqiu was administered by this emperor. Wouldn't this emperor know whether he can get better or not?"
"What! It was actually Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty is mighty! This Xu Fengqiu's methods are heaven-defying, and he is also a good hand at using poison, but he didn't expect that Your Majesty is even more powerful than him, and he also fell under the most confident poison."
"Hahaha! Since Your Majesty has said so, then this Xu Fengqiu is bound to die."
"…"
Lin Tianyi said: "Knowing that you still have a trace of doubt in your hearts, then this emperor will tell you another piece of news. What Xu Fengqiu is suffering from is not a poison, but a top-level curse!"
