"Thank you all for gracing us with your presence! You must all be curious about who Cold Mountain Pharmacy is!" Ziyi slowly stood in the center of the hall and said with a faint smile.
"Ziyi Hall Master! Stop keeping me in suspense! Just tell me already!"
"Yes! We've been holding back for days, we're so curious about who the owner of Cold Mountain Pharmacy really is!"
Upon hearing this, the Ziyi chuckled softly and flicked her finger, pointing to the unique large red table in front of her. Suddenly, a young figure appeared there. "He is the owner of our Cold Mountain Pharmacy!"
Everyone was stunned by what they saw. They hadn't expected the owner of Cold Mountain Pharmacy to be so young, and they couldn't believe it!
Seeing this, Li Changfeng slowly raised his glass. "I'm sure you're all very curious about me! Let me introduce myself. My name is Li Changfeng. Thank you all for gracing us with your presence at the conference where I'm reporting on this matter! Cheers!"
After saying that, Li Changfeng drank the wine without saying another word, and everyone was immediately surprised. "Li Changfeng! Is that Li Changfeng?!"
Then everyone quickly raised their glasses, "Let's toast Hall Master Li!"
Suddenly, a clear, melodious voice rang out from outside the hall, "Hall Master Li! Why didn't you invite me to today's conference?"
A graceful figure in white robes walked in from outside the hall, followed by a group of Brocade-Clad Guard, all with smiles on their faces.
Li Changfeng was slightly taken aback upon seeing this. "Princess Minmin! What brings you here!"
Princess Minmin smiled faintly upon hearing this, "What! Can't I come?"
Upon hearing this, Li Changfeng chuckled and said, "Someone! Bring Princess Minmin to me!"
"I obey!"
At this moment, a commotion arose from the audience, "What! Princess Minmin is here too! Could he really be Li Changfeng, the number one on the Human Rankings?!"
"Of course! Even Her Princess is here, so it must be true!"
The people below the stage were immediately filled with excitement. They never expected that the owner of Cold Mountain Pharmacy was actually Li Changfeng, who ranked first on the Human Rankings. At the same time, they were extremely shocked!
However, five people in the audience had grim expressions; they were the elders sent by the five major sects to assassinate Li Changfeng.
Their faces were extremely grim. "Damn it! Even Princess Minmin has come! What are we going to do now!"
Upon hearing this, the Meteor Sect leader's face darkened. "Things have come to this! We have no choice but to bite the bullet and go for it. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"
The Iron Palm Gang elder hesitated upon hearing this, "What if Her Princess drinks poisoned wine?"
Upon hearing this, the leader of the Meteor Sect looked grave. His gaze fell on Wang Jiao, who was not far away, and he transmitted his voice, "Boy! Things have changed. Find a way to put the antidote in the Princess's wine!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Jiao gritted his teeth. He knew this matter was of great importance. He picked up two cups of wine and slowly walked towards Princess Minmin. "Your Princess! I admire you immensely! May I offer you a toast?"
Princess Minmin narrowed her eyes slightly upon hearing this. "You want to offer me a toast?"
At this moment, the guard beside Princess Minmin's face darkened upon seeing this, "Who do you think you are! What right do you have to drink with Her Princess!"
Wang Jiao's face turned ugly upon hearing this. He had lost face completely in front of everyone, and now he was in a dilemma. He couldn't leave, and he couldn't stay either.
The Viper's face turned extremely ugly upon seeing this. "Jiao'er! What are you still standing there for! Get out of here!"
At this moment, Li Changfeng narrowed his eyes slightly upon seeing this, and immediately guessed what the wine was. He transmitted his voice, saying, "Princess Minmin! Drink it! There will be a good show to watch!"
Upon hearing this, Princess Minmin glanced deeply at Li Changfeng, then immediately took the wine cup and drank it down. Seeing this, Wang Jiao was overjoyed and also drank the wine in one gulp before slowly taking his leave.
The five elders below breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this, "Finally, Princess Minmin has taken the antidote!"
Li Changfeng stood up, smiled slightly, and said, "Everyone! Don't just stand there, let's eat!"
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately began to eat, creating a lively atmosphere. Li Changfeng also slowly joined the hall masters and Princess in their meal.
Princess Minmin frowned. "Li Changfeng! When is the show you promised going to start?!"
No sooner had the words left his mouth than a commotion erupted in the audience. Several diners collapsed to the ground, clutching their stomachs and convulsing, coughing up a mouthful of black blood. "This... this food and wine is poisoned!"
The others also immediately felt a surge of poison in their stomachs, their faces turning extremely pale. They quickly circulated their internal energy to suppress the poison within their bodies!
At this moment, Blackheart, Viper, Ziyi Robe, and Green Robe were also poisoned and sat down on the ground. Ziyi gritted her teeth and said, "Viper, what happened! We entrusted you with the important task of guarding the kitchen, and you have such a loophole!"
Upon hearing this, the Viper gritted its teeth. Suddenly, it noticed Wang Jiao standing there unharmed, grinning maliciously at Li Changfeng. Its heart skipped a beat. "You unfilial son! Could it really be you?!"
At this moment, Li Changfeng's face was ashen. He pretended to be poisoned, sat cross-legged on the ground, and circulated his internal energy to detoxify himself. He looked at Wang Jiao with a gloomy expression and asked, "Why? Why did you do this!"
Wang Jiao sneered, "Why? That's ridiculous. We fought our way back to Cold Mountain Pharmacy, and you take everything away as soon as you come back. I'm not having it!"
Upon hearing this, Li Changfeng said calmly, "Is that all?"
"Of course that's not all! You also stole my Xiao Qing away, and he hasn't spoken to me since you came back! You deserve to die!"
Xiao Qing's face turned extremely pale upon hearing this. "I'm so sorry, big brother! It's all my fault, Wang Jiao! Hand over the antidote now, and I might beg you to spare my life!"
"Spare my life? What a joke! He must die today!"
"Hahaha! Young man Wang! You did a great job! We'll reward you handsomely after this is all over!"
Upon hearing this, the Viper's face turned ashen. Enraged, he spat out a mouthful of Blackheart, "You unfilial son! You unfilial son! How could you collude with foreign enemies! You even... you even poisoned me! Are you even human?!"
Wang Jiao's face turned ugly upon hearing this. "Father! It's not what you think. They promised to give you the antidote and then hand over the Cold Mountain Pharmacy to us, father and son. That's why I did it!"
Seeing this Azure City Sect elder sneered, "Boy! It seems your father doesn't know what's good for him! Here's what we'll do! Go and kill your father, and I'll pass on the Azure City Sect's unique martial arts to you!"
Wang Jiao's expression changed drastically upon hearing this. "This... this isn't right! After all, he's my father!"
The Meteor Sect elder smiled slightly upon hearing this, "No poison, no man! There is always a price to pay. You are a smart man, so there are some things we don't need to say more about!"
Wang Jiao's face turned ugly upon hearing this. Now he finally realized that he had been deceived and that the power was not in his hands at all. If he did not do something, he would surely die!
After a moment's hesitation, he made his choice, slowly drawing his long sword and walking towards the Viper, looking at him with a complex expression. "Father! Don't blame me! I have no other choice now!"
