Er Shi Xiong

Chapter 710 Poisoned

"There are two possibilities now!"

Ling Feng's expression relaxed a little.

Li Tianjiao leaned closer curiously, "What's the situation?"

"The first is a neurotoxin, deeply hidden, with periodic outbreaks, or triggered by certain conditions, such as allergic reactions."

"The second is a genetic toxin! This is more troublesome. Someone has already mastered your family's gene sequence. You can simply understand it as a targeted action against you!"

By the end of his words, Ling Feng's expression had become extremely serious.

Li Tianjiao couldn't help but twitch his lips, frowning at Ling Feng, "Could you be overthinking it?"

"I wish I were overthinking it, but... Nalan Xing's location has stopped moving!"

Ling Feng suddenly said this.

Li Tianjiao's eyes widened, "What did you say? Nalan Xing? You know where he is?"

Ling Feng shook his head at Li Tianjiao, "Do you think I'm as brainless as you? Why didn't I kill him directly back then? Do you think I was reporting to the Elder Council?"

Li Tianjiao's lips twitched, "Aren't you?"

Ling Feng then gave Li Tianjiao a blatant eye-roll.

"No! Nalan Xing's experiences are not enough for him to reach his current position. There must be a powerful force hidden behind him, at least these people are very wealthy! And today Nalan Xing was taken away, and a Supreme Elder died. This Supreme Elder was a sacrificial pawn, two possibilities..."

Ling Feng raised two fingers again.

Li Tianjiao was speechless, "Two possibilities again?"

"Yes, the first possibility is that this Supreme Elder had a close connection with them, in simple terms, he was their accomplice and has now been abandoned."

"The second possibility is that this Supreme Elder discovered deeper secrets and intelligence among them!"

"As for which situation it is, we need to see the body and the clues left at the scene!"

After Ling Feng finished speaking, as Li Tianjiao gasped, he spoke again, "Nalan Xing has a Gu worm I left on him. This Gu worm is nano-sized. If he hadn't lost more than 40% of his blood, he wouldn't have been able to get rid of the Gu worm on him, let alone be detected!"

Li Tianjiao gave Ling Feng a thumbs-up, praising him generously.

"Okay, you're really something!"

"Foolproof, playing the long game to catch a big fish!"

Ling Feng said it very simply, clearly no longer surprised by Nalan Xing being captured earlier.

Even Li Tianjiao felt that Ling Feng's previous demeanor was a pretense.

Ling Feng had actually been hoping for Nalan Xing to be kidnapped.

"Let's put these aside for now, and first figure out my sister's symptoms! You claim to be a divine doctor, don't let me look down on you!"

Li Tianjiao had already figured out one thing: the situation with Nalan Xing had been under Ling Feng's control from the beginning!

Since that was the case, what was there to worry about?

Although this was his dereliction of duty, and now Ling Feng had to clean up his mess.

However, Ling Feng had already done his share of cleaning up for him!

It wasn't too much for him to do it this time, and besides, he also cleaned up for Ling Feng.

Ling Feng glanced at Li Tianjiao and casually replied, "Haven't you looked down on me enough? Do you think I care?"

Li Tianjiao's lips twitched. This threat was useless!

Then, Ling Feng asked Li Mei, "Are you allergic to anything?"

Li Mei shook her head, her eyes still a little timid as she looked at Ling Feng.

"When did your symptoms start?" Ling Feng continued to ask.

Li Mei pondered for a moment before timidly replying to Ling Feng, "The year before last."

"The year before last? Then you should recall carefully if anything special happened that year," Ling Feng pressed on patiently.

Li Mei's eyes showed some confusion, and she shook her head, saying, "Nothing special happened. The year before last, I got into university from my village and then left town."

Ling Feng then looked at Li Tianjiao, "Village and town?"

"Oh, yes, Xiao Mei has been adopted all these years. Her adoptive parents live in a small mountain village on the outskirts of Kyoto. Life there is also difficult, and it was not easy for Xiao Mei to get into university," Li Tianjiao explained, looking at Li Mei with concern.

Upon hearing this, Ling Feng's eyes lit up, "What is the name of the place you lived in?"

"Beishan Township, Qing'ao Village," Li Mei replied truthfully.

Ling Feng pointed towards the northwest, "It's about 120 kilometers from here, right?"

Li Mei was startled, and instinctively followed the direction of Ling Feng's finger, her beautiful eyes blinking, "Have you been to our village?"

At this, Ling Feng retracted his finger and turned to look at Li Tianjiao.

Li Tianjiao naturally noticed the unusual expression on Ling Feng's face and frowned, asking, "Is there a problem? Is my sister's illness related to the village?"

"It's not related to the village, but to the people in the village!" Ling Feng replied coldly.

Then he shook his head and added, staring at Li Tianjiao, "Nalan Xing stayed in that village!"

Li Tianjiao's eyes immediately widened, "This is definitely not a coincidence!"

Ling Feng sneered, "Of course, it's not a coincidence. I told you before that you were being schemed against. If I'm not mistaken, you've also been poisoned!"

"Poisoned?" Li Tianjiao's brows furrowed, "No! I handle my own meals and drinks, and most poison masters can't get close to me!"

Ling Feng shook his head at Li Tianjiao, "It has nothing to do with that. It's a bloodline connection, a genetic infection. Have you been eating and living with her these days?"

"Of course, she's my sister, I have to keep her by my side. She was bullied at school, and her entire dorm ostracized her. I was so angry that I brought Xiao Mei to live in my residence!"

Li Tianjiao was still somewhat annoyed when mentioning this.

But soon, Li Tianjiao realized the deeper meaning in Ling Feng's words, and his pupils suddenly contracted, "You mean, just by eating and living together, I could be poisoned?"

"Not possibly, but certainly. It's just that your bloodline power is strong, so it won't manifest immediately!"

Ling Feng shook his head at Li Tianjiao, then looked at Li Mei, "I need a drop of your blood, and your brother's!"

Li Mei nodded and took off a simple hairpin from her head. The tip of the hairpin was quite sharp, and she pricked her finger with it.

Immediately, blood welled up.

Li Tianjiao, watching from the side, was heartbroken, "Oh my, that's too much, too much blood is flowing!"

"Stop the nonsense, yours!"

Ling Feng urged coldly.

Li Tianjiao glared at Ling Feng, clearly holding him responsible for his sister's bleeding.

Then he used his fingernail to cut his fingertip, and blood flowed out.

Ling Feng raised his hand and took a drop of blood from each of their fingertips.

Simultaneously, two wisps of bloody flames ignited.

Under the flickering light, the blood quickly evaporated, but soon, a powdery substance remained on Ling Feng's fingertips!
