Soul Shaking Mystic Art! Seven Killings Hall! Blood Fiend Poison!

This sudden turn of events took everyone by surprise.

No one expected that the usually amiable and shrewd Qian Family Head would suddenly do something so crazy.

"Has this old man gone mad?!" That was the first thought of all the guests.

But then they realized something was wrong.

Because the aura emanating from the Qian Family Head was too strong and too terrifying.

The icy chill seemed to freeze hearts, causing all the guests to tremble, their hands and feet stiff, almost unable to move.

"Not good!"

Even Wei Xinghe, a Martial Dao Grandmaster, felt his mind falter and his reaction was several beats slower.

He was terrified and could only watch helplessly as the "Qian Family Head," who was bursting with powerful aura, lunged at Wei Zi'an, his eyes wide with rage.

"Soul Shaking Mystic Art, Blood Slaughtering Sword, Seven Killings Hall Assassin?!"

The Plain-Clothed Youth suddenly stood up, his face full of surprise.

He possessed a sect treasure, making him unaffected by the Soul Shaking Mystic Art, but due to the great distance, he could only watch helplessly as this scene unfolded, unable to offer any assistance in time.

"Wait, where is Young Master Lu?"

The Plain-Clothed Youth had just begun to sigh when he realized something was wrong: Lu Qing, who had been at his table, was nowhere to be seen.

But the next moment, he knew where Lu Qing had gone.

On the makeshift platform, Wei Zi'an and Ma Gu were already stunned by the icy aura emanating from "Qian Family Head".

With his hands and feet ice cold, Wei Zi'an felt an endless chill rising from his heart. He could see the other person rushing towards him, but he couldn't move his body at all.

The same was true of Ma Gu, who was behind him.

The aura emanating from that "Qian Family Head" was terrifying, as if he possessed some strange power that could freeze a person's mind, rendering them completely immobile.

The distance of a dozen steps passed in the blink of an eye; the "Qian Family Head" was already in front of Wei Zi'an in the blink of an eye.

His gaze was deep and cold, devoid of any emotion, like a death god crawling out of the deepest hell, as he thrust his sword toward Wei Zi'an's heart.

With the force it unleashed, if this sword strike landed squarely, even a celestial being descending to earth would likely find it difficult to save Wei Zi'an.

However, just as the short sword was about to pierce Wei Zi'an's heart, suddenly, a teacup appeared out of nowhere and smashed onto the short sword with a violent gust of wind.

Bang! The teacup struck the side of the short sword and shattered instantly.

However, all the power contained within it is poured into the short sword.

The force was astonishing. Even with the strength of the "Qian Family Head," he felt his arm tremble and was unable to fully control the short sword, forcing it to tilt to the side.

Swish! A trail of blood flew up.

The short sword missed its target and did not Wei Zi'an's heart; it merely grazed past him, slashing his arm.

"Get out of my way!"

At the same time, a loud tiger roar rang out, and Lu Qing's figure appeared on the platform.

With his right fist clenched, his Qi Blood Eruption, carrying an extremely powerful aura, and he punched the side of "Qian Family Head".

What? A flicker appeared in the deathly cold eyes of the "Qian Family Head," who seemed surprised that someone could react so quickly under his Soul Shaking Mystic Art.

But he knew that the opportunity was lost. If he continued to make a move, even if he could forcibly kill Wei Zi'an, he wouldn't be able to escape once Wei Xinghe and the others reacted.

The thought flashed through his mind, and the "Qian Family Head" made a decision in an instant.

He turned around and spun around, suddenly striking out with his palm to meet Lu Qing's fist.

Boom! Fists and palms collided, air currents burst forth, the platform shook, and in the hasty response, the power unleashed by "Qian Family Head" was no match for Lu Qing who seized the opportunity.

That chubby body flew out and crashed through the wall not far away!

"Trying to run?!"

However, Lu Qing realized something was wrong in an instant.

In the exchange just now, the opponent was not injured at all. Instead, he used an extremely clever way to deflect the force of the punch and escape.

Without a second thought, he pushed off with his feet and chased after the enemy through the gap in the wall.

"Xiao Li, protect Xiao Yan!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Qing's figure disappeared, leaving behind a group of guests who stared in disbelief at the scene.

From the moment the "Qian Family Head" Qi Blood Eruption, to Lu Qing saving Wei Zi'an and then smashing the "Qian Family Head" away with a punch.

All of this happened in the span of a few breaths.

Many guests didn't even have time to realize what was happening before they saw Lu Qing already chasing after them.

But in that brief moment, the powerful aura that erupted from their fight shocked everyone.

The disciples of the Azure Cloud Sword Pavilion, in particular, were filled with disbelief.

"An'er!"

Just then, Madam Wei let out a startled cry.

Everyone quickly looked over and saw Wei Zi'an being held by Ma Gu, with Wei Xinghe and his wife and Wei Zihao all gathered around, looking anxious.

As for Wei Zi'an, he was covering the wound on his arm, but his eyes were closed, and a dark aura appeared on his face, which showed signs of gradually deepening.

"The sword is poisoned?!"

Everyone was immediately startled, guessing what had happened.

I was utterly horrified.

What kind of poison was coated on that sword? It was so terrifying! Young Master Wei had only been injured for a few breaths when he was already unconscious from the poison! "Wei Family Head, quickly seal the acupoints on Young Master's hands to prevent his blood from flowing back to his heart. That person is an assassin from the Seven Killings Hall, and he used Blood Fiend Poison. Once the blood poison attacks his heart, it will be too late!"

The Plain-Clothed Youth spoke, and at the same time, he appeared on the platform.

Seven Killings Hall? Most guests were bewildered when they heard this name, not knowing what kind of organization it was.

Only a few disciples of the Azure Cloud Sword Pavilion, who also came from major sects, were greatly shocked upon hearing this, their eyes filled with horror.

Upon hearing this, Wei Xinghe had no doubts and immediately used his fingers to seal the blood and qi in Wei Zi'an's arm.

However, even after the blood and qi were sealed, the rate at which the black aura on Wei Zi'an's face thickened did not slow down much, and the situation remained far from optimistic.

"Your Excellency Zhi Rui, what should we do next?"

Knowing that the Plain-Clothed Youth was knowledgeable, Wei Xinghe quickly asked.

"I have an antidote pill here. You can give it to the Young Master to temporarily stop the poisoning."

The Plain-Clothed Youth took out a porcelain bottle and poured out a pill.

"Thank you Your Excellency Zhi Rui."

Wei Xinghe took the pill, pried open Wei Zi'an's mouth, and made him swallow it with water.

After taking the pill, the rate at which the dark aura on Wei Zi'an's face deepened significantly slowed down.

But it was still clear that his condition had not improved, and he had not woken up.

"Your Excellency Zhi Rui, how could this be?"

Upon seeing this, Madam Wei was greatly alarmed and asked in grief.

"Madam Wei, my pills can only achieve this much." The Plain-Clothed Youth sighed and said, "The assassin just now used the infamous Blood Fiend Poison. This poison is a secret poison of the Seven Killings Hall. It is extremely vicious and is made from a variety of hot poisons. As long as a trace of it seeps into the body, it can burn away one's blood and qi. Even Martial Dao Grandmaster would find it extremely difficult to cure if he were to be poisoned."

"Then wouldn't our An'er be..."

Upon hearing this, Madam Wei immediately burst into tears.

The guests were equally shocked upon hearing this.

This was the first time they had ever heard of such a terrifying poison, one that even Martial Dao Grandmaster found difficult to resist.

Wei Xinghe felt a little dizzy, but as a martial arts expert, he quickly calmed down.

He asked in a deep voice, "Your Excellency Zhi Rui, is there really no way to save us?"

"My antidote can only suppress the Blood Fiend Poison for half an hour at most. If we can find a famous doctor within this time, there should still be a way to detoxify. Isn't Old Doctor Chen right here at your residence? Why don't you ask him to come out and help?"

The Plain-Clothed Youth asked, somewhat puzzled.

With that person's medical skills and his cultivation at the Innate Realm, even if the Blood Fiend Poison is extremely potent, there should be a way to deal with it.

Upon hearing this, Wei Xinghe's face immediately turned bitter. "Your Excellency Zhi Rui. This morning, because of a banquet being held at the manor, the Old Ancestor complained that it was too noisy, so he invited Old Doctor Chen to go on a trip to the mountains to collect herbs. He is probably still on his way."

Otherwise, how could such a commotion in the mansion have escaped the notice of those two? But given their speed, they are nowhere to be found at this moment. Even if someone were to search for them, it would be impossible to find them within half an hour.

"If that's the case, then I have no better solution," the Plain-Clothed Youth sighed.

Is it really fate?

At this point, even Wei Xinghe couldn't help but feel despair.

Although there are doctors in the city, even His Your Excellency Zhi Rui is helpless against this poison, so ordinary doctors are probably powerless to deal with it.

Unfortunately, neither Old Doctor Chen nor the Old Ancestor were in the manor at this moment. Was An'er truly destined for this calamity? "Young Master Lu!" Ma Gu suddenly shouted, "Wei Family Head, quickly send someone to call Young Master Lu back. He knows medicine and should be able to save Zi An!"

"Yes, yes, quickly go and invite Young Master Lu!" Madam Wei finally realized, "Young Master Lu healed my injuries back then, he must have a way!"

Madam Wei recalled that when she was seriously injured, she was on her deathbed, and her condition was not much better than An'er's now.

But under Lu Qing's treatment, he recovered enough to walk in just half a day.

If he were here, he would surely have a way to detoxify.

"But Father, Young Master Lu has gone after that assassin. With our skills, we probably can't keep up with their speed," Wei Zihao said with shame.

"A Hai, go and bring Young Master Lu back quickly. Tell him that Zi An in grave danger and only he can save him!" Wei Xinghe immediately ordered.

Among them, there are probably only a handful of people who have a chance of catching up with Lu Qing and his companion.

Wei Xinghe couldn't persuade the County Magistrate or the Plain-Clothed Youth, and he couldn't leave either.

The only hope lies with the Grand Steward, whose Inner Organs Great Accomplishment.

"Yes, sir!"

Grand Steward Wei dared not delay and immediately tried to chase after them through the gap in the wall.

However, before he could take two steps, he suddenly heard a gust of wind.

With a bang, a figure flew in from outside the wall and crashed heavily to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Qing's calm voice rang out from above.

"I told you, you can't escape."

Everyone looked up and saw Lu Qing standing tall and proud on the wall.

The person on the ground, with twisted limbs and covered in blood, was none other than the "Qian Family Head".
