A Two Star Dou Master? Killed with One Finger!

Mu She!

The leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group!

One of Qing Shan Town's three major mercenary groups!

He was a Two Star Dou Master himself. Though he had stagnated for many years, he was still not someone ordinary mercenaries dared provoke!

Mu She spoke up, making it clear that he was backing World-Saving Hall!

He walked to the World-Saving Hall owner's side and released the Dou Master's Dou Qi pressure.

The ordinary mercenaries around them immediately fell silent and even quietly retreated several steps.

Even the mercenaries who had been shouting about helping out earlier no longer dared speak, afraid of offending Mu She.

They were merely ordinary mercenaries.

If they offended Mu She, life in Qing Shan Town would become difficult for them in the future!

The Ten Thousand Medicine Hall owner's expression immediately turned ugly!

He had only dared to threaten to tear down World-Saving Hall because Ten Thousand Medicine Hall had grown stronger after hiring Xiao Yi Xian.

But if the Wolf Head Mercenary Group stood with World-Saving Hall, Ten Thousand Medicine Hall would have a hard time resisting them!

"Just as I said before, if she could be poisoned to death so easily, then this healer's medical skills were probably nothing special!"

Mu She sneered.

His cold gaze swept across the surrounding crowd.

Seeing everyone who met his gaze lower their heads, he snorted smugly.

Under Mu She's threatening gaze, Ten Thousand Medicine Hall's momentum weakened considerably.

"Hmph! Stop spouting nonsense! How could anyone guard against thieves every day? Everyone has moments when they let their guard down!"

The Ten Thousand Medicine Hall owner said with a livid expression, "Xiao Yi Xian being poisoned does not prove anything about her medical skills!"

"Besides, the witnesses and physical evidence are right here. Does your World-Saving Hall intend to distort the truth?!"

The Ten Thousand Medicine Hall owner clung tightly to the witnesses and evidence, forcefully refuting Mu She's words at the same time.

The World-Saving Hall owner sneered, clasped his hands behind his back, and slowly walked down.

He came before the witness, craned his neck, and examined him closely.

"Heh, Ten Thousand Medicine Hall! I don't know this person at all!"

"Who knows where you found this scapegoat, beat a confession out of him, and falsely accused him of being one of World-Saving Hall's men!"

The old man slowly straightened up and said calmly, "This so-called witness is merely your one-sided claim. Who knows whether you colluded with him beforehand?"

"As for this so-called physical evidence, who can prove that the poison in these pastries came from our World-Saving Hall?"

"Even if the poison really did come from World-Saving Hall, perhaps some other schemers wanted to frame World-Saving Hall!"

When the old man said "schemers," he deliberately glanced at the Ten Thousand Medicine Hall owner.

It enraged the Ten Thousand Medicine Hall owner so badly that his beard bristled and his eyes bulged!

At the end, the old man even put on a sorrowful expression and said, "Poor Xiao Yi Xian. She was poisoned to death, yet people still want to use her as a tool."

The old man's words immediately stirred up a wave of discussion among the surrounding crowd.

"That does seem possible. Those witnesses and physical evidence Ten Thousand Medicine Hall brought out might really have been staged by their owner!"

"Bullshit! Why would the Ten Thousand Medicine Hall owner poison Xiao Yi Xian? Xiao Yi Xian brought Ten Thousand Medicine Hall so much business!"

"Come to think of it... they keep saying Xiao Yi Xian was poisoned to death, so why haven't we seen her body yet?"

As the crowd buzzed with discussion, Xiao Ze had already pulled Xiao Yi Xian away from this troublesome place halfway through.

Since both sides insisted on their own version, they would gather evidence directly!

A potent poison was not so easy to produce. It would definitely leave behind traces!

While World-Saving Hall's attention was drawn to the front,

Xiao Ze pulled Xiao Yi Xian into World-Saving Hall in secret and began searching inside.

After searching around, they really found a hidden room!

The residue inside the room was precisely the potent poison that had poisoned Xiao Yi Xian!

"Good. Now the evidence is irrefutable!"

Xiao Ze had already been inclined to believe that World-Saving Hall was behind this.

Now that he had seen the physical evidence, he no longer had many reservations about taking action!

When Xiao Yan arrived in Qing Shan Town two years later, only Ten Thousand Medicine Hall remained dominant.

Presumably, following the original course of events, Xiao Yi Xian had not been poisoned to death, and the matter between the two sides had ended inconclusively.

With Xiao Yi Xian's help, Ten Thousand Medicine Hall continued to develop and soon either absorbed World-Saving Hall or drove it into ruin.

As for why the Wolf Head Mercenary Group was backing World-Saving Hall?

Xiao Ze guessed that World-Saving Hall had likely resorted to a desperate gamble after seeing its business deteriorate!

It had offered the Wolf Head Mercenary Group enormous benefits in exchange for handling the aftermath of poisoning Xiao Yi Xian!

Perhaps it was some rare medicinal herb, or perhaps a share of the business profits for the next ten years.

Faced with such massive benefits, the Wolf Head Mercenary Group certainly could not resist. Mercenaries were driven by profit by nature!

After all, the rapidly rising Ten Thousand Medicine Hall would not offer the Wolf Head Mercenary Group such enormous benefits!

Xiao Ze did not care about the dealings behind all this. He only wanted to deal with the mastermind and accomplices who had poisoned Xiao Yi Xian.

Then he would leave Qing Shan Town with Xiao Yi Xian and have nothing to do with this place ever again!

Xiao Ze arrived at the entrance of World-Saving Hall, where the two sides were still arguing.

"Hehehe! Stop arguing. I found the poison used to kill Xiao Yi Xian inside World-Saving Hall!"

A hoarse, sinister voice came from Xiao Ze's mouth. He found that the laughter of Soul Hall elders really was quite distinctive.

Xiao Ze's words immediately stunned both sides into silence.

This unexpected third party drew everyone's attention.

Two figures clad in black cloaks walked in from beyond the crowd.

Xiao Ze threw the evidence he had collected onto the ground.

Panic flashed across the World-Saving Hall owner's face, while the Ten Thousand Medicine Hall owner was somewhat delighted. This mysterious person seemed to be on his side.

The old man still wanted to muddle through and argue without reason.

But Xiao Ze spoke first.

"You need not argue any further. Xiao Yi Xian once treated me, and now she has died of poisoning. I want to avenge her."

As he spoke, Xiao Ze walked toward the old man.

Seeing the mysterious figure approach, the old man retreated again and again.

He was like a scholar facing a soldier, unable to reason with him!

"Hmph, so now that you can't win the argument, you want to use force?"

The old man forced himself to say, then turned to Mu She, who had been standing there watching the show, and shouted.

"Commander Mu She! You promised to take action!"

"I know. How strong could some sneaky, face-hiding fellow be?"

Mu She said confidently. The aura of a Dou Master burst from his body as he lunged forward with a savage grin.

"You sneaky rat, if you want to avenge someone in your next life, you'd best first measure your own strength!"

The powerful Dou Qi pressure forced the surrounding crowd to retreat again and again.

They looked at Mu She with horrified expressions.

This was the might of a Dou Master!

"Heh, I'll return those exact words to you!"

Xiao Ze stopped walking and said with a smile.

"Arrogant!"

Mu She roared and charged straight at him, reaching for Xiao Ze's cloak in an attempt to see his true face.

Seeing this, the surrounding crowd's hearts rose to their throats.

They felt sorry for Xiao Ze. Of all people, he had chosen to provoke a Dou Master!

Xiao Ze mobilized the Water Attribute Dou Qi within him and mixed in a trace of Poison Attribute Dou Qi. His originally pale-blue Dou Qi instantly turned dark blue!

Xiao Ze's finger moved later but struck first.

Before everyone's eyes, it seemed slow yet was actually swift as it landed between Mu She's brows.

Squelch!

The scene seemed to freeze at that instant!

When Xiao Ze withdrew his finger, it was still as clean as before.

But Mu She now had a bloody hole between his brows.

The surrounding crowd was utterly stunned.

A Two Star Dou Master had been killed with one finger?!!
