Zheng Yang scratched his head sheepishly.
"I agree to it!"
Seeing Zhang Xuan's expression, Wei Ruyan shook her head expectantly. "Do you need me to poison them? I guarantee that they will die immediately without leaving any traces behind. I can even help you destroy their corpses and poison their entire clan to prevent them from retaliating against you … "
"There's no need for that …"
Zheng Yang shuddered. He suddenly felt that it was a little inappropriate for him to approach this junior of his.
"There's no need to stand on ceremony. If you don't want to die from poison, I can forge some medicine for you that can turn you into a puppet. After consuming it, they will willingly become your plaything without any resistance …"
Wei Ruyan replied calmly.
"Cough cough …" With a serious look on his face, Zheng Yang said, "Junior, I suddenly remembered that I have other matters to attend to. You seem to be quite busy, so I won't trouble you any further. Farewell …"
With that, he turned around and left.
As expected of the head of the Poison Temple … He really couldn't afford to offend her!
Before he could get far, a gust of wind suddenly blew behind him, and a faint figure followed him. Turning around, two of his three souls were scared out of their wits.
"Junior …"
Zheng Yang frowned bitterly.
"Alright, there's no need to waste your breath. I was just making a casual remark; I'm not a murderer! Even if I want to kill someone, I should at least be an Ancient Sage. Ordinary humans aren't interested in it! "
Wei Ruyan harrumphed coldly.
She was just making a casual remark. Even though she was the head of the Poison Temple, she wasn't a person who would kill the innocent. How could she possibly poison someone to death so casually?
If she really did so, her teacher would probably be the first to slap her to death.
"But …" Zheng Yang frowned bitterly.
Even though he knew that the other party was just joking, he didn't dare to use an expert who could release poison at any moment!
If she were to get angry and poison a large group of them to death, he would really die for nothing.
"There are no buts. Lead the way, or else I'll turn you mute!"
Wei Ruyan waved her hand.
"…" Zheng Yang burst into tears.
What in the world was this?
If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have wasted my breath on her … Great, I've boarded the pirate ship, and I can't even get off now.
It didn't take long for the both of them to fly out of the boundaries of Hongtian Academy. Not too long later, they arrived at a certain location and stopped. Before them was a massive mansion that stretched far into the distance.
"That's not right …"
Standing in the air and looking around, Zheng Yang's head was filled with confusion.
"What's wrong?" Wei Ruyan walked up to him.
"I used to live in a commoner's district. How did it become such a big mansion?"
Zheng Yang landed with a strange look on his face.
His family wasn't very well off. Otherwise, with a proper education, he wouldn't have failed Wang Chao's class.
A year and a half ago, this was just a slum. When did such a big mansion appear?
"Isn't that simple? Just find someone and ask them …"
Harrumphing lightly, Wei Ruyan landed on the ground and walked up to a tea table. She turned to the vendor and asked, "This friend, I would like to ask if this mansion has just been constructed?"
The vendor initially wanted to ignore her, but upon seeing the appearance of the lady before him, a smile immediately appeared on his face. "Lady, you must be new to Tianxuan City, right? The construction of this mansion began a year ago, and it was completed in less than a month. We hired top-notch craftsmen, and look at the layout and architecture of the courtyard. I heard that they even employed landscapers. It's even grander than the royal palace! "
"They even employed landscapers?"
Wei Ruyan and Zheng Yang glanced at one another.
Others might not know of landscapers, but the two of them were well aware of them. They were incomparably rare, and even a powerful clan like the Zhang family would find it difficult to find one. Yet, one suddenly appeared in this place and built a mansion?
"Whose mansion is this?"
Unable to hold himself back any longer, Zheng Yang asked curiously.
"The Su Clan!" The vendor replied.
"Su?" Zheng Yang was perplexed. "When did the Su Clan appear in Tianxuan Royal City?"
The Four Great Clans of Tianxuan Royal City, Wang, Liu, Bai, and Du, were all famous clans. He had never heard of the Su Clan before.
"You don't even know of the Su Clan? The clan head, Su Maoqing! "
Seeing the doubt on Zhang Xuan's face, the vendor frowned.
"Su Maoqing?" Zheng Yang's body swayed, as though he had heard something unbelievable. "His … daughter is Su Feifei?"
"That's right!"
The vendor nodded. "If not for his daughter finding a good son-in-law, how could he, Su Maoqing, live in such a mansion? To tell you the truth, two years ago, he couldn't even afford a cup of tea, and he was so poor that he didn't even have a few clothes on him. Now, he's spending like a king. I heard that he spent more than ten gold coins on a meal yesterday … "
"Son-in-law?" Interrupting the other party's words, Zheng Yang clenched his fists tightly.
"Indeed. It seems like you aren't too familiar with the matter. However, it's a good thing that you asked me. I have been doing business here for more than a decade now, and I know every single thing that goes on in this area!"
"His daughter, Su Feifei, somehow got acquainted with a young master from some empire. That young master is both rich and powerful, and that's why they have this luxurious mansion. Otherwise, do you think that the two of them could afford to buy such a large place?" "That's right.
"I understand …"
Zheng Yang shook his head, as if he was about to let go of a knot in his heart.
"So, Su Feifei is the girl that you liked? It seems like your eye of discernment isn't that great! "
Wei Ruyan chuckled softly as she sent a telepathic message to Zhang Xuan.
What Young Masters of the Empire? Even if it was the Emperor, compared to Zheng Yang, what were they?
To think that Su Feifei would fall in love with such a person. It was truly a wonder what she was thinking.
"I …" Zheng Yang was at a loss for words.
Back then, before he acknowledged Wang Chao laoshi as his teacher, he had just suffered a setback when he confessed to Wang Chao laoshi and was rejected. Due to that setback, he had become hesitant in his spearmanship, and in the end, he was unable to enter Wang Chao laoshi's tutelage.
"Look, they're coming out …"
At this moment, the door to the mansion suddenly creaked open. Jiya! A door slowly opened, and a beautiful girl holding a middle-aged man's arm slowly walked out.
The young lady wasn't too beautiful, but her looks were above average. Putting aside Wei Ruyan, Zhao Ya, and the others, even Shen Bi Ru and the others couldn't match up to her. The middle-aged man beside her was fat and ugly. His physique was even more exaggerated than Yuan Tao's.
If it had been anyone else, they would have felt ashamed to be holding onto such a young man. On the other hand, the young lady looked as if she was holding onto a noble and dashing prince. There was an indescribable pride on her face.
Wei Ruyan sneered, "How can someone so ugly and old be called a scion?"
In her view, scions were all dashing, dashing, and extravagant. She didn't think that the other party would be fat, ugly, and old. How in the world did this young lady fall for him?
"Let's go!"
Exhaling deeply, Zheng Yang turned around and said.
This was the first woman that he had fallen in love with, and he had had a crush on her for more than five years. This time, he had returned only to meet her once to resolve the obsession in his heart. Since he had seen her, and she was living a blissful life, he was satisfied.
"Go? How can we leave before the show is over? "
Wei Ruyan chuckled softly as the corners of her lips curled upward.
