Da An Prefecture.
This place had long lost its usual bustling and bustling atmosphere. There was a deathly stillness everywhere. Even if someone occasionally appeared on the streets, they were all trembling with fear, fearing that they would encounter some crazy Poison Men and die an inexplicable death if they were not careful.
At the very edge of the east side of the city, there was a large mansion that was brightly lit but exuded a strange aura. Other than this mansion, the surrounding residences had no lights at all. It was pitch black and in the middle of the night, it made the mansion even more terrifying.
Originally, this was the most central place of the Da An Prefecture. The mansion originally belonged to a large family in the Da An Prefecture. Half a year ago, this family was killed overnight and no one knew who moved into the mansion. Gradually, the entire Da An Prefecture was filled with Poison Men who took the Poisonous Pills.
The people who lived in the surrounding area were afraid of being killed and quickly moved away. Who would dare to live in the vicinity?
"Lu Lingzhi, what is this place?" Mo Ronghui had just arrived at the Da An Prefecture today and as soon as he walked into the mansion, he felt an inexplicable chill. The guards standing in the corner seemed to have an abnormal expression, just like the Poison Men he saw a few days ago.
Could it be that the people here had lost their humanity?
"I'm going to see someone." Lu Lingzhi said lightly. He seemed to be used to the strange guards around him.
Mo Ronghui looked deeply at Lu Lingzhi and followed him into the hall.
He did not know what he would face next. If it were not for Ye Zhen, Mo Ronghui would not be willing to fight for the throne. The only one who could inspire his ambition and give him a little hope was always her.
However, things seemed to be beyond his imagination.
Lu Lingzhi was not helping him contact his old subordinates to help him, but to use these Poison Men.
The person he wanted to see, was it the person who made the Poisonous Pills?
"Let's go in." Unknowingly, they had already arrived at the hall.
Mo Ronghui's heart sank as he slowly walked up the steps. The voices of several people could be heard in the hall. At a glance, he could only see the man sitting in the centre. He was tall and dressed in a black cloak, it was impossible to see what he looked like.
This person caused Mo Ronghui to feel an invisible pressure pouncing on him.
"Sovereign." Lu Lingzhi bowed, a rare look of fear and caution on his face.
The man in the black cloak was none other than Chou Hen. He glanced at Lu Lingzhi indifferently before turning his gaze to Mo Ronghui. "You are Mo Ronghui?"
"Yes." Mo Ronghui listened to his deep voice and panicked.
"Very good." Qiu Hen nodded with satisfaction. "Tomorrow, we will announce to the world that we will rise up in the name of legitimacy and take back the throne that belongs to the Crown Prince."
Lu Lingzhi smiled. "Sure."
Qiu Hen stood up and ordered his subordinate, "Bring Zhong Yue here."
"Yes." A tall man beside him replied in a low voice.
Only then did Mo Ronghui realize who was standing in the corner. It was his sixth brother! It was Mo Rongke!
Although he hadn't seen his sixth brother for a long time, he heard that he was no longer a prince and had broken off relations with Mo Rongzhan. Moreover, his name in Jianghu was Murong Ke.
Why was he here?
Looking at his pale complexion, could it be that he had also swallowed a Fishy Poison Pill?
"Your Highness, why are you looking at him? Don't tell me you know him? "Qiu Hen asked coldly.
"I don't know him … I just feel that he doesn't look too good." Mo Ronghui said indifferently. He glanced at Lu Lingzhi but saw that he was expressionless, as if he didn't recognize Murong Ke.
Could it be that Lu Lingzhi didn't know that person was Murong Ke?
This was the first time Lu Lingzhi saw Murong Ke beside Qiu Hen. Naturally, he recognized him. However, he had his own plans and didn't expose Murong Ke's true identity on the spot.
Qiu Hen definitely didn't know that Murong Ke was the current Sixth Duke.
Murong Ke had already brought the unconscious Zhong Yue over. He didn't even look at Lu Lingzhi and Mo Rongyi. He just looked at Qiu Hen calmly.
"Who is this person?" Mo Ronghui pointed at Zhong Yue on the ground and asked.
"Have you seen this before?" A white porcelain bottle appeared in Qiu Hen's palm. He looked at Lu Lingzhi.
"I seem to have seen it somewhere." Lu Lingzhi said.
Qiu Hen's eyes turned cold. "Think clearly, where have you seen it before!"
Lu Lingzhi looked at the porcelain bottle. "I think I saw the same porcelain bottle on Mo Rongzhan."
"What does this person have to do with Mo Rongzhan?" Qiu Hen looked at Zhong Yue coldly, doubting his identity.
Mo Ronghui looked at Murong Ke. He didn't know this person. For Qiu Hen to treat him so seriously, he was definitely not an ordinary person.
"He is Yan Xing's nephew. Yan Xing is now in the palace." Lu Lingzhi said.
Qiu Hen chuckled. "It seems that the palace is full of capable people."
What did that mean?
Lu Lingzhi and Mo Ronghui didn't quite understand what that meant.
"Bring him along and follow me." Qiu Hen said to Murong Ke lightly.
Murong Ke nodded. He easily picked up Zhong Yue and followed Qiu Hen out of the hall.
"Where are they going?" Mo Ronghui asked.
"Go back and rest. Don't ask what you shouldn't know." Lu Lingzhi said.
Mo Ronghui looked out of the hall. He couldn't see them anymore.
Murong Ke held Zhong Yue in one hand. He didn't know where Qiu Hen was taking him. Looking at the direction, it seemed to be to the Floating Cloud Mountain.
After a while, he finally confirmed that they were going to the Floating Cloud Mountain.
"Wait here." Qiu Hen left Murong Ke at the entrance of the cave.
"Master, I've brought him here." Qiu Hen walked into a cave and said to a mountain wall.
After a while, a deep voice came from behind the mountain wall. "You brought him here?"
"Master, I don't know where this person came from. He didn't become addicted after taking the Poisonous Pill. After interrogating him, I found out that he took this medicine," Qiu Hen said.
There was actually a human who couldn't become addicted to the Poisonous Pill? After a while, the person behind the mountain wall said, "Bring it in."
The mountain wall that was originally blocking Qiu Hen disappeared in an instant. Qiu Hen was shocked. He carried Zhong Yue and walked in. In the dark cave, he could only see a faintly discernible figure.
"Master." Qiu Hen looked at the figure in front of him in surprise. He grew up in the mountains. If his master hadn't let him drink the milk of wild animals, he might have died long ago. However, after so many years, he could only hear his master's voice. He had never seen what his master looked like.
He knew that his master wasn't from this world. When his master's cultivation method was completed, he might be able to follow him to another world.
"Master, he took this medicine." Qiu Hen handed over the porcelain bottle.
The figure's arm moved slightly, and the porcelain bottle automatically flew into his hand.
"There's actually a spiritual spring in the human world!" The person's voice was shocked. "Great, I can finally take over your body. Qiu Hen, my good disciple, you're finally useful. Give your body to me."
Murong Ke, who was outside, hadn't heard clearly what was said inside. He had already heard Qiu Hen's terrified scream.
