Jinling had excellent Fengshui and a pleasant environment. It was a very suitable city for settling down.
Many high-ranking officials and nobles liked to live here for the rest of their lives. Among them, there were two people with the most power, Her Royal Highness Li Lin, the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty, and Prince Li, the cousin of King Tang, Li Zixing.
Since ancient times, one's status was determined by one's family background.
Therefore, among the second generation of authority, Li Lin's son, Qi Siyuan, and Li Zixing's son, Li Yue, were the two members of the royal family with the highest authority.
Speaking of which, Li Lin and Li Zixing could also be considered relatives. On the surface, they got along well, but behind the scenes, they were competitors.
A mountain can't accommodate two tigers, not to mention that Li Zixing had always treated Jinling as his territory. In the end, Li Lin interfered and took away part of the profits. Who would be happy about this?
The grudges of the family would naturally affect the next generation.
Qi Siyuan and Li Yue were rivals. Both of them had a group of fans and people who were related to them, so they naturally formed two circles.
Although they wouldn't fight to the point of being badly battered and completely falling out with each other, there would always be small frictions due to jealousy and sparring.
Qi Siyuan and Li Yue were of the same age and were both students from famous schools. They wanted to trample on each other. Therefore, they would find all sorts of reasons to fight each other every year when they came back from their annual leave.
In the past, the two of them were evenly matched. But in the past two years, Li Yue's strength had improved by leaps and bounds. Hence, Qi Siyuan kept on losing.
Hearing Bai Ziyu's words, Qi Siyuan's countenance turned a little gloomy. As a scion of noble birth and a member of the royal family, Qi Siyuan's face was more important than his life.
Qi Siyuan fell silent, throwing a glance at Xu Rui and then at Zhang Mingyu. He felt a little tempted, but he soon gave up on this thought.
"I came to find him to get rid of the master-disciple relationship between him and my cousin. What's the point of asking him for advice?"
Qi Siyuan smiled in self-mockery. (Moreover, I'm a student of the Skyraise Academy. Because my aptitude isn't bad and my status isn't low, it isn't difficult for me to seek guidance from 3-star great teachers. So, is there a need for me to lower myself to a guy without any stars?)
"You're poisoned!"
Sun Mo looked at Qi Siyuan and suddenly spoke.
"What did you say?"
Bai Ziyu was stunned and looked at Qi Siyuan. "Siyuan has been poisoned?"
"What happened?"
"Who did it? I'll go kill him! "
"How dare you provoke our Brother Qi! You must be tired of living!"
The other second-generation nobles were furious when they heard this. They immediately asked with concern, wanting to kill the guy who poisoned them.
"What do you mean? Grandstanding? "
Qi Siyuan frowned and stared at Sun Mo. "I'm a Regional King. Who would dare to poison me? Do you want your entire family to be executed? "
"Over the past year or so, your right chest has occasionally hurt. When you circulate your spiritual energy, the pain will become more frequent and even more intense."
If it wasn't for the fact that this fellow was Li Ziqi's cousin and was very concerned about the little sunny egg, Sun Mo couldn't be bothered to care about him.
Qi Siyuan's countenance sank and he subconsciously clutched his chest. It was because Sun Mo had hit the mark.
"Over the past three months, the duration of your chest pain has increased, and it will occur about once a week, mostly at night."
Sun Mo stared at Qi Siyuan.
Seventeen years old, Spirit Refinement realm, 36 acupoints opened.
Strength: 15. You want to be a ferocious man, but you don't have this physique. Being a weak scholar is your label.
Intellect: 14. Average standard. Slightly high EQ. Not recommended to take on an official career. Don't participate in the struggles of the imperial court and be a carefree Regional King. Otherwise, you wouldn't even know how you died.
Agility: 18. Suave, elegant, scholarly. In addition to your unrivaled family background and handsome looks, you can be called the Seducer King.
Endurance: 15. Although you come from a wealthy background, you've cultivated very hard and gained quite good endurance.
Will: 13. You haven't experienced any major events and are relatively weak.
...
Potential value: A little above average.
Note: You clearly have the disposition of a scholar, but you insist on taking the path of a ferocious man. I can't understand it. Could it be that you have the potential to be gay?
Note: One and a half years ago, you were injured by the Purple Smoke Palm. The poison has already invaded your muscles and bones. If you don't receive treatment in time, although you won't die, your body will be crippled. There'll be no possibility for you to break through in your cultivation.
Sun Mo hadn't heard of the Purple Smoke Palm before, but the ancestor-grade Divine Sight was too powerful. Therefore, he directly explained it in detail.
It was a rare cultivation art. Although its grade wasn't high, being only a peerless-grade earth-tier cultivation art and its attacking prowess wasn't strong, it was too sinister.
The palm force unleashed by this palm art contained poison, and it wasn't easy to detect. After hitting the enemy, the poison would slowly invade the enemy's body, all the way to their bones.
The person wouldn't die, but they'd be crippled.
Qi Siyuan's countenance was already very grim. It was because Sun Mo had hit the nail on the head regarding the development of his symptoms. This... this was too amazing!
Sun Mo raised his hand.
Qi Siyuan didn't want Sun Mo to treat him, but he was worried, especially because he wanted to know who had poisoned him. Therefore, he gritted his teeth and walked up to Sun Mo.
Sun Mo pressed down on Qi Siyuan's chest and activated the living blood technique.
Cough cough!
Qi Siyuan immediately started coughing. He couldn't stop it at all and felt extremely uncomfortable. After a few coughs, he spurted out a large mouthful of blood that had a tinge of purple in it.
"Brother Qi!"
"Young Prince!"
"What did you do? Quickly stop! "
The group of second-generation nobles were both shocked and enraged. If it wasn't because most of them were kneeling on the ground, their aura would really be a little awe-inspiring.
"Don't be noisy!"
Qi Siyuan bellowed. He looked at the fresh blood on the ground and sank into deep thought.
Sun Mo had no reason to harm him. Moreover, if it wasn't because of his relationship with Ziqi, Qi Siyuan probably wouldn't have mentioned this matter. After all, those who had the guts to plot against him would definitely be enemies with an extremely great background.
Sun Mo was just an ordinary teacher. There was no need for him to offend a powerful enemy for his sake.
"What poison did I get?"
Qi Siyuan asked, his attitude becoming a lot more amicable.
"Violet Smoke Palm!"
Sun Mo explained, but he was secretly praising in his heart. This was the way of thinking and the way a second-generation nobleman should handle things. It was obvious that someone like Bai Ziyu hadn't matured yet.
"Teacher Sun, from what you mean, I should have been plotted against during a spar. Do you know the exact time?"
Qi Siyuan humbly sought guidance. As a student of a famous school, there would be no end to all sorts of competitions and spars. Over a year ago, Qi Siyuan had sparred with at least 30 people. However, he had a few targets.
After asking, Qi Siyuan silently scolded himself for being stupid. It was already very impressive that Sun Mo could tell that he had been poisoned over a year ago. If he were to ask for the exact time, he would be making things difficult for Sun Mo.
"Summer of the year before last, early June!"
Sun Mo was very familiar with it.
"Huh?"
Bai Ziyu was dumbfounded. (To think that you really mentioned it? You couldn't have guessed it, right?)
Qi Siyuan's body trembled, revealing an expression as if he had expected this. In June of the year before last, he had sparred with Li Yue and lost.
A few months after the start of the martial arts competition, the growth of his strength had slowed down. Because of this, the head of the year had even talked to him, saying that glory and wealth were merely worldly possessions, and that strength was everything. Therefore, he had to work hard and not waste his talent.
Back then, he had felt depressed for a very long time, thinking that he had reached a bottleneck. By the looks of it, this was because that b * stard Li Yue had played a dirty trick!
"F * ck, I've wasted close to two years of my time!"
Qi Siyuan's countenance was grim, and he was so angry that his hands started to tremble. Who didn't know that this was the golden age for cultivation? However, because he had been poisoned, his cultivation progress had slowed down.
If it wasn't for Sun Mo, he would still be in the dark and his life would be ruined. At the thought of this, Qi Siyuan bent his back and bowed.
"Teacher Sun, thank you for your generous guidance!"
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Qi Siyuan + 200. Friendly (200/1,000).
Sun Mo nodded. The favorable impression points were not bad.
"Teacher Sun, I still have something to do. I'll take my leave first."
Qi Siyuan wanted to quickly return and tell this matter to his mother. Then, he would get someone to treat him. He mustn't delay any further.
"Siyuan!"
Bai Ziyu interjected, "Since he can tell your symptoms, he should be able to treat you, right?"
Qi Siyuan was also flustered from worry. Hearing that, he turned to look at Sun Mo.
"I can treat him, but this is a long-term process. I'll need about three months."
Sun Mo told a small lie. With his powerful ancient massage technique, he would be able to purge all the poison in Qi Siyuan's body after massaging him three to four times. However, if the treatment was so easy, Qi Siyuan would look down on him and feel that this was a minor illness that anyone could treat.
After all, a life-saving debt was something one should be grateful for compared to treating a fever.
Of course, the reason why Sun Mo dragged out the time was so that Qi Siyuan wouldn't look for trouble with him and that Qi Siyuan would find out more about him.
He believed that if Qi Siyuan heard more about him, he would change his view of him.
Hearing this, Qi Siyuan heaved a sigh of relief and his attitude became even more respectful. "Teacher Sun, can you please treat me? Later on, I'll get my father to pay a visit to thank you for your help. "
"It's fine if you want to thank me. You're Ziqi's cousin, so it's only right for me to help you!"
Sun Mo thought to himself, 'Look at how good he is with his words. Getting the father of the clan head to pay a visit means that he regards Sun Mo highly. It also means that he'll send a thank-you gift at that time.'
It was much more elegant to do this.
It was too vulgar to thank him in person, and it would also make the other party feel awkward. It would make it seem as if he was helping him because of the gift.
After all, teachers valued their reputation a lot.
"Then I'll have to trouble Teacher Sun!"
After Qi Siyuan thanked him, he asked again, "What medicinal herbs do you need? I'll prepare them as soon as possible! "
"There's no need!"
Sun Mo smiled.
When Qi Siyuan heard this, his smile stiffened, thinking that Sun Mo wasn't messing with him, right?
"If you don't use medicinal herbs, how are you going to treat me... F... F * ck... What is this?"
Bai Ziyu was puzzled, but before he could finish his question, he saw spirit qi gushing out from Sun Mo's hands, instantly condensing into a muscular genie.
It was wearing a vest and had a purple turban on its head, looking very coquettish.
The genie raised its hands high and exerted force, causing the muscles on its upper body to swell up. Under the sunlight, it seemed as if it had been smeared with olive oil, shining brightly.
"What the hell?"
Qi Siyuan instinctively took a step back. Then, amidst Ada's cry, he saw the muscular genie flying over and grabbing his arm.
Then, two big hands pressed down on his body.
Qi Siyuan's butt tightened and he subconsciously cried out.
"Ah, go away!"
