The number of large family clans in the ancient medicine world could be counted on one hand.
Meng Xiong only knew the surname "Ying".
Ying Zijin.
The new genius in the field of ancient medicine had already surpassed Fu Chen by a notch.
Although Fu Xi did not show any attitude, he clearly admired her.
Meng Xiong had even specially thanked Ying Zijin yesterday for saving Family Meng's family members.
How could this …
Meng Xiong's hand trembled as the token fell to the ground.
The butler was still kneeling on the ground, not daring to breathe loudly.
When he first saw the token, he found it unbelievable.
But on careful thought, it did make sense.
Ying Zijin's rise in the ancient medicine world was indeed too fast. In just half a year.
The moment she came, she displayed unparalleled alchemy skills.
Her acupuncture skills were probably not too bad either.
Furthermore, she lived in the secular world and did not have any resources. Where did her medical skills come from?
It was truly unbelievable.
But if she was an evil doctor, then she could indeed rely on unorthodox methods to speed up her progress.
This was also the reason why he thought that Ying Zijin was an evil doctor at the beginning of the last Pill Alliance Conference.
"This is no longer something we can decide." Meng Xiong was somewhat tired. "I believe the news has already spread to the ancient martial arts world. We can't hide it anymore. Let's do what we need to do."
**
Ancient martial arts world.
Martial Alliance headquarters.
In the study.
A young man was reading a book.
This was the Martial Alliance's young master, Cheng Jin.
He was not the Martial Alliance's Alliance Leader's son, but his only personal disciple.
A guard knocked on the door.
Cheng Jin did not raise his head. "Come in."
The guard entered and knelt on one knee. He whispered, "Young Master, Miss Qingxue … has passed away."
Cheng Jin's hand that was pressing on the book paused.
He raised his head and narrowed his eyes. With a dangerous aura, he said, "You mean she's gone?"
He did not have any romantic feelings for Meng Qingxue. It was just a doctor-patient relationship.
It was normal for the Martial Alliance to pay for Family Meng's treatment.
Meng Qingxue had indeed misunderstood him.
The guard's voice trembled. "Yes, he was locked up because he made a mistake, but he was killed by the evil doctor last night."
"The Family Meng has found evidence. The three families of the Lin Family and Xie Yue Family have all gone to the ancient medicine field. They are preparing to interrogate the culprit. This is an important matter, so we need to vote."
"An evil doctor?" Cheng Jin frowned. "Who does the evidence point to?"
"Ying Zijin."
"Oh, I've heard of this name before. Her medical skills are very good. I was planning to invite her to meet me one day." Cheng Jin nodded. "Is she an evil doctor?"
"The evidence says so, but it's not conclusive yet. The ancient medicine world wants to force the whereabouts of the other evil doctors out of her mouth, especially the evil doctor commander."
"It seems that things are a little complicated. The Evil Doctor has been hiding for so long. It's impossible for him to be exposed so easily." Cheng Jin stood up. "I'll go take a look."
After taking a few steps, he seemed to have thought of something. "Who's going to the Lin family?"
The guard replied, "It's Miss Qingjia. She just left. The Xie Clan is Xie Nian. The Yue Clan is Yue Jingshan."
Cheng Jin understood immediately. "Miss Fuyi is still in isolation. No wonder."
Otherwise, the Yue Clan would not send Yue Jingshan for this kind of thing.
Cheng Jin called two guards. "Come with me."
"Yes, Young Master."

On the other hand, at the Imperial Capital University.
Ying Zijin helped Zuo Li complete an experiment.
Zuo Li was very happy and wanted to invite her to eat hotpot.
Ying Zijin thought about it and felt that she could save money on the meal, so she agreed.
Most importantly, Fu Yunshen was not there, so she did not need to be controlled. She could eat spicy hotpot with chili oil and drink a few bottles of cola.
Ying Zijin replied to Fu Yunshen with an emoji that said she was still working hard on the experiment. Then, two new messages came in on WeChat.
Fu Chen: Grandmaster, it's over! Just now, Family Meng sent a message saying that Meng Qingxue is dead. She died yesterday!
Ying Zijin narrowed her eyes.
Then, the second message came in.
Fu Chen: But what's worse is that she was killed by the evil doctor. What's worse is that there was your identity token at the scene! The people in the ancient martial arts world are alarmed. What should we do, Grandmaster? They all say that you are an evil doctor! And you are a senior in the evil doctor!
Ying Zijin paused and replied with a calm expression.
[It's okay. It's expected.]
Fu Chen: Grandmaster, it can't be. You can calculate it? Why was this within his expectations?
[It's not a calculation. It's just a deduction. The evil doctor's goal is all the geniuses in the ancient medicine world. We should have died on the mountain, but you and I both survived.
If we don't get rid of all of them, the evil doctor will take action next. Their target is not me, but you, or An Ling and An Miaomiao.
But it's easier to target me because you all have families behind you. It's not easy to frame them. I just came to the ancient medicine world. In their eyes, my foundation is not stable.]
She had never been able to calculate things that involved her.
What's more, her divination ability had not recovered yet.
Ying Zijin did not expect that the mysterious place where Norton was was would hurt her more than changing Wu Yue's fate.
But she always did things in advance. She always had to prepare something.
"Professor Zuo, I don't have time to eat hotpot with you today." Ying Zijin turned her head. "Maybe another day. I have something important to deal with."
Zuo Li was confused. "What's the matter?"
As soon as he asked this, there were exclamations on the street next to them.
Zuo Li looked over and saw two people dressed in ancient costumes walking over.
They were the ancient martial arts world's guards stationed in the ancient medicine world.
Many passers-by were taking photos.
"Miss Ying, sorry to offend you." One of the guards stood in front of the girl and said, "You are suspected of a murder. Please come with us."
Hearing this, Zuo Li's expression changed. He stepped forward and stood in front of Ying Zijin. "Who are you? This is the gate of the Imperial Capital University! Why did she kill someone? "
"Professor Zuo, I'm fine." Ying Zijin was very calm. "We are cosplaying. Recently, my company is planning to film a period drama. This is the line."
Zuo Li was stunned.
Then, he looked at the two guards and saw that they were indeed wearing ancient armor. He believed it a little.
Most importantly, he felt that although the two guards were wearing ancient costumes, they did not look like they could withstand a fight.
If anything happened to one of them, it would only be the two of them.
Ying Zijin's skills were still fresh in Zuo Li's memory.
She was a freak who could even punch out a member of the Yizi team.
There used to be a group of gangsters outside the Imperial Capital University who often extorted money from the students. Now, they would avoid Ying Zijin when they saw her.
"That, that's good." Zuo Li said, "Mr. Ying, be careful. Don't get hurt."
He emphasized the word "safe" and even looked at the two guards with great emphasis.
The two guards were confused by Zuo Li's gaze.
However, the ancient martial arts world's rules forbade them from showing their ancient martial arts in front of ordinary people. The two guards did not say anything and left with Ying Zijin.
Compared to yesterday's interrogation of Meng Qingxue, today's entourage was even bigger.
Ying Zijin's gaze swept across the seats. She had an idea of what was going on.
Not only were the representatives of the three ancient medical families, Danmeng, and Tian Yi Men present, the Lin, Xie, and Yue families and the Martial Arts Union were all present. There were also a few large families.
The last time something like this happened was when a notorious Ancient Martial Artist was executed in the Ancient Martial Arts World.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, the girl walked to the center and stood still. She was calm and composed from beginning to end.
Xie Nian narrowed his eyes and said slowly, "She's not bad looking. Evil doctors pay attention to appearances. I don't need to look at the evidence. I agree to detain her."
When Xie Nian said this, the families that followed the Xie family naturally stood on her side.
"Miss Xie Nian, please calm down." The First Elder of the Elixir Alliance frowned and said in a deep voice, "I've already told everyone what happened just now. The Evil Doctors have harmed the ancient medicine world and are also the enemies of the ancient martial arts world. The evidence is right here, and it all points to you being one of the Evil Doctors."
As he spoke, he picked up the command medallion. "Miss Ying, is this yours?"
Ying Zijin glanced at it and said calmly, "Yes, it's mine, but I lost it two days ago."
"Lost it? How did the evil doctors get it right after you lost it? "Xie Nian's red lips curled up and she chuckled." These words are quite fake, aren't they? "
"Miss Ying, it's not just this token." The First Elder hesitated. "We found these things in your personal refining room."
Cheng Jin pointed at the box on the table. "What's this?"
"It's something like a Buddhist amulet." The First Elder said, "But it's very sinister. There's a poison on it made by the evil doctors. Wearing it for a long time will speed up the aging process and cause premature death."
"A batch has already entered the secular world and the temples. We've sent people to retrieve all the amulets, and they haven't caused any harm to the ordinary people."
Ying Zijin raised her chin and said calmly, "That's all?"
"That's not enough?" Xie Nian laughed. "Can't you ancient doctors be a bit faster? I still have things to do. Hurry up and vote. "
"Miss Ying can't be an evil doctor. I don't agree with imprisoning her." Fu Chen sneered. "If she was an evil doctor, why would she come back to save me? Wouldn't it be fine if she just let me be eaten by a tiger? "
"Gongzi Fu Chen, everyone knows that you're close to Ying Zijin." An old man spoke up. "If you die, she'll be the only one alive. She'll be more suspicious. I agree with imprisoning her."
On Tian Yi Sect's side, Godly Doctor Gu and another godly doctor came.
Both of them wrote their agreement.
Godly Doctor Gu stroked his beard. "The evil doctor has committed a heinous crime. This evidence is enough."
Yue Jingshan also wrote his agreement.
Danmeng's Alliance Master Qiu Man's expression sank. "I don't agree. This is a trap."
Both sides had their own opinions.
Cheng Jin didn't put his pen down. Instead, he looked at Lin Qingjia. "What do you think?"
Lin Qingjia wrote his disagreement on the paper. "This kind of trap is very easy to use. The logic is completely reasonable, but a fake is a fake."
Cheng Jin nodded. "Okay."
He trusted Lin Qingjia.
If Lin Qingjia said it wasn't, then it wasn't.
She had always been very smart. Otherwise, even if she was an ancient doctor and martial artist, she wouldn't have been able to survive in a place as treacherous as the Lin family.
Cheng Jin voted his disagreement with imprisoning Ying Zijin. He put his pen down on the table and leaned back in his chair. "Hurry up. I still have things to do."
Xie Nian looked at Lin Qingjia. She licked her lips and laughed contemptuously. "Lin Qingjia, I really don't understand you. Isn't it good to have one less person as famous as you?"
She didn't care at all about how Meng Qingxue died.
It didn't make any difference whether she was killed by the evil doctor or vomited blood.
To her, it was good that Meng Qingxue died.
She didn't want to be associated with Meng Qingxue's name when people talked about ancient medicine and ancient martial arts geniuses.
She didn't deserve it.
But who knew that after Meng Qingxue left, Ying Zijin came.
Xie Nian played with her nails as she casually glanced at the girl.
She was just an ancient doctor.
She wasn't a threat to her.
Not to mention Ying Zijin, who was an ancient doctor, she could even crush Lin Qingjia to death easily.
Xie Nian didn't care about ancient doctors.
Ancient doctors had a short lifespan. When they died naturally, she would still be alive.
A few elders counted the votes.
The final result was 27 to 12.
There were 27 people who agreed with imprisoning Ying Zijin.
The minority obeyed the majority.
Danmeng's Great Elder had a complicated expression. "Then we will follow everyone's suggestion and imprison Miss Ying. Torture her until she tells the truth."
Even now, he still didn't believe that Ying Zijin was an evil doctor.
But the evidence was right there. He was just an elder of Danmeng. He couldn't change anything.
"Torture her?" Xie Nian stopped thinking about leaving. She crossed her legs and clapped with a smile. "Torture is good. I love to see it. Make it as bloody as you can. Don't hold back."
The two guards had just brought the torture equipment and hadn't moved yet.
"Why didn't you call me here for this?" A cynical voice sounded. It was a smile, but it was cold. "Why? Is the Hall of Justice not qualified? Or am I not qualified to attend this meeting? Hmm? "
Everyone looked at the door.
Some people stood up in shock.
