Because of the ancient warship's array formation, any sea beasts with a bit of strength and intelligence would flee far away, so there was no danger in going to the sea. One of the tasks of the shift workers was to go fishing in the sea. This was what it meant to rely on the sea to survive. Only the sea had the freshest and most abundant ingredients.
Without special permission, no one could go to the sea without permission. As Lin Yi said, the prerequisite to fishing out a poisonous creature like the Heart-Piercing Sea Anemone was to go to the sea for a task, and he clearly didn't have this condition.
"Secondly, even if I could really fish out the Heart-Piercing Sea Anemone and use it to poison everyone, would I use the antidote to save people? And specially prepare over a hundred antidote pills in advance? Is there something wrong with my head? "Lin Yi glanced at Ren Zhongyuan, who was rolling on the ground.
"Ahhh! You just want Junior Sister Yu Die to think that you're stronger than me! You despicable, shameless villain! " Even now, Ren Zhongyuan was still stubborn. He knew that if he changed his words and begged for mercy now, he would be completely ruined. He might as well grit his teeth and persevere, treating it as a ruse to gain people's trust.
"Hehe, if it was just to prove that I'm stronger than you, a simple move would be enough. Why go through so much trouble? Do you think I'm a fool, or do you think everyone here is a fool? You're from East Continent Academy, after all, but you're not even good at lying … "Lin Yi couldn't help but laugh.
Everyone else was also shaking their heads. Ren Zhongyuan's words were getting more and more ridiculous. Anyone with a brain wouldn't think like that. Even his loyal subordinates were too embarrassed to continue echoing him at this time. It was embarrassing to say it out loud. What if people really thought they were fools and laughed at them in the future?
"Now that things have come to this, I believe everyone has nothing to say. Not only is Lin Yi not the real culprit, he's also your savior. Do you still have any objections?" Liu Ziyu immediately went along with the flow.
Of course, no one dared to stand out. As for Ren Zhongyuan, who was rolling on the ground, he still wanted to say a few more words. However, with Liu Ziyu's aura suppressing him, and the Five Elements killing intent rampaging through his body, he was in so much pain that he couldn't say anything.
"Since that's the case. Men, carry him away. This matter ends here. " Liu Ziyu threw a glance at Ren Zhongyuan and said with a deep meaning in her words, "Let me remind you. Stay in your room and recuperate. If there's nothing important, don't come out casually. In particular, don't create any trouble for me. I'm the person in charge of the East Region's diplomatic mission. Even if there was no evidence, he could still act first and report later. You'd better remember this! "
This time, anyone with a discerning eye could see that the real suspect of poisoning was not Lin Yi, but Ren Zhongyuan, who was the first to bring up the Heart-piercing Anemone. In all likelihood, this guy was the thief who cried "stop the thief" and wanted to kill Lin Yi with hatred in his heart.
It was a pity that she could not find any concrete evidence. No matter how suspicious Ren Zhongyuan was, Liu Ziyu could not do anything to him for the time being. She could only use this excuse to put him under house arrest. So that he could not continue to stir up trouble.
Since Liu Ziyu had already said so, this matter was considered settled. Although Yi Xiaotian and the others were unwilling, they could only follow Liu Ziyu's words and carry Ren Zhongyuan back to his room. After all, this old woman's fierce reputation in the East Region was not just for show. If she was really forced to be ruthless, none of them would have a good ending.
The group of East Region disciples dispersed one after another. Lin Yi cupped his hands toward Liu Ziyu and said gratefully, "Thank you, Vice Headmaster Liu, for helping me out of this predicament. Otherwise, I really wouldn't be able to explain myself today. "
This was the truth. Although Lin Yi had a hundred ways to expose Ren Zhongyuan's framing, he had to first have the chance to do so. If Liu Ziyu had not helped him earlier, he would not even have had the chance to concoct pills and detoxify the poison. He didn't even give them the chance to concoct pills and detoxify the poison, so it was even more impossible for anyone to listen to him. With Ren Zhongyuan and Yi Xiaotian fanning the flames from behind, they might have already been forced to fight.
"You've got it backwards. I should be the one thanking you properly. If it weren't for you, I don't know how this matter would have ended." Liu Ziyu shook her head with some lingering fear. Fortunately, Lin Yi could really concoct so many detoxification pills. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
"This time, Ren Zhongyuan got away with it. It's really too hateful. If this was West Island, even if there was no evidence to prove that he poisoned someone, just the crime of framing would have been enough to put him in jail!" Ning Xuefei said angrily.
"Yeah, this matter was obviously done by Ren Zhongyuan. Master, are we really going to let him off just like that?" Huo Yudie was also somewhat unwilling. She hated Ren Zhongyuan to begin with, and this time, he actually caused such a big incident to frame Lin Yi. This made her even more furious, and she wished she could execute this b * stard on the spot.
"Without irrefutable evidence, we can't touch him, especially on this ship." Liu Ziyu sighed helplessly. She didn't want to spoil Ren Zhongyuan and his group of people. Unfortunately, although she was the person in charge of Dongzhou's diplomatic mission, her identity on this ancient battleship was still a guest. Those crew members would give in to Ren Zhongyuan, but they wouldn't give in to Liu Ziyu.
Lin Yi looked at Ning Xuefei and Huo Yudie's indignant expressions and couldn't help but be amused. He said indifferently, "Hehe, actually, there's no need. That guy has already been punished. Look at him, he's in so much pain."
Hearing this, the two women immediately smiled. When they thought of how Ren Zhongyuan was rolling on the ground just now, their anger was vented. Even Liu Ziyu covered her mouth and laughed. A wicked person would be tormented by another wicked person. Ren Zhongyuan had really kicked an iron plate this time.
After being carried back to the room by Yi Xiaotian and the others, Ren Zhongyuan still had some backbone. He howled in pain as he chased all these people out. After all, his current appearance was really too embarrassing. With Yi Xiaotian and these underlings looking at him like this, how could he still be arrogant in the future!
"Detoxification! There must be a way to cure the poison! Ahhhh! " Ren Zhongyuan was hysterical alone in the room. Similarly, a wave of vital energy was flowing everywhere in his body. He subconsciously thought that this was a strange poison like the Heart-piercing Sea Anemone. He was a pharmacist and an alchemist, and he even had a high-grade detoxification pill with him. No poison could trouble him, absolutely not.
Without hesitation, he swallowed the detoxification pill. At the same time, he clenched his teeth and endured the intense pain. He circulated his mental cultivation method to dispel the vital energy. Two hours passed. Four hours passed. He tossed and turned like this until midnight. Only then did Ren Zhongyuan completely collapse, because all of this was completely useless!
That strange, ghost-like vital energy could not be dispelled at all. It was simply inexplicable. Not only was it as indistinct and difficult to capture as the Heart-piercing Sea Anemone's poisonous gas, even if one could really catch it by chance, there was no way to dispel it.
Generally speaking, whether it was the poisonous gas or the vital energy, once it could be successfully locked on, there would always be a way to dispel it little by little using one's own mental cultivation method. It was just a matter of how fast it was! (Murloc in School Belle 3D's arduous path of becoming an expert. Speaking of this makes me feel stifled.
