"Butler, prepare the car!"
"Master, where are you going so late?"
"To the Chen family."
"Yes, Master."
Master Deng sat in a black Audi, leaving the Deng family's villa estate under the protection of several bodyguard vehicles.
Half an hour later, Master Deng's convoy entered the villa estate of another powerful family, the Chen family, in Capital City.
After Master Deng's convoy entered the Chen family villa estate, a black Mercedes quietly stopped at the intersection not far from the Chen family's villa estate.
The driver of this black Mercedes was none other than Wu Yunci.
Wu Yunci spoke to the backseat, "Father, Deng Fangzhen and the others have entered the Chen family."
"Hmm." The person in the black cloak in the backseat responded.
Indeed, the person in the black cloak was Marquis Wuying.
After leaving the Deng family, Marquis Wuying did not truly leave; instead, he waited in a hidden place, sitting in the car driven by Wu Yunci.
After Master Deng's convoy left the Deng family, Wu Yunci then drove, following Deng Fangzhen's convoy from a distance, tracking them all the way here.
"Father, it seems just as you predicted, it's very likely that Chen Guowang is the old man who rescued Lin Zheng's female disciple." Wu Yunci said to his father, his eyes dark and deep.
The black cloaked Marquis Wuying nodded: "Although Lin Zheng's female disciple was rescued that night, Old Liang told me that the masked person who rescued the woman was hit by his Heart-devouring Palm. Without a miraculous elixir, he will die within a month as his heart veins fail."
"Although I had already suspected that the Chen, Liu, and Deng families were likely to have rescued that woman, it was just a guess. But tonight, hearing Deng Fangzhen request the Dragon Saliva Pill from our Wu family, I knew my guess was correct."
"Heh heh, Father, Deng Fangzhen took advantage of Yuqing's offense to Deng Ziyu to demand the Dragon Saliva Pill from our Wu family, thinking we wouldn't know he needed the pill to treat the serious injuries left by the Heart-devouring Palm on Chen Guowang." A cold smile curled at the corner of Wu Yunci's mouth.
"But Deng Fangzhen would never have thought that among the three Dragon Saliva Pills, one is lethally poisonous."
The secret that there is a fake Dragon Saliva Pill is only known to the Wu family. The fake pill is mixed with an odorless, colorless poisonous herb from the Western Regions. Because this herb is colorless and odorless, even the well-informed Deng Fangzhen could not detect the lethal trap hidden in the Dragon Saliva Pill.
Marquis Wuying said calmly: "Yunci, although Yuqing did not succeed in winning Deng Ziyu, who can say it's not a blessing in disguise?"
"Unexpectedly, because of this, we found clues about that woman. I believe we will soon find her, and as long as we get the Martial Saint Heart Sutra from Lin Zheng, our Wu family can still rise as a distinguished family even without Deng Ziyu. Let's go back!"
"Yes, Father."
The black Mercedes quietly left.
Wu family villa living room.
Marquis Wuying and Wu Yunci looked at Wu Yuqing, whose face was swollen like a pig's head, with barely suppressed anger in their eyes.
Originally, after giving the fake Dragon Saliva Pill to Deng Fangzhen and confirming the Chen family had rescued Lin Zheng's female disciple, they were in a very good mood.
But upon returning to see Wu Yuqing's pig-like swollen face, all their good mood vanished.
"Yuqing, who did this to you?" Wu Yunci asked Wu Yuqing in a deep voice.
Wu Yuqing laboriously opened his mouth and said, "It was that Lin Fei I mentioned to you last night."
"Him again!" Wu Yunci's hand clenched into a fist, pounding forcefully on the sofa.
However, Marquis Wuying questioned, "Yuqing, as a Martial King of the fifth level and one of the ten young elites in Capital City, how could you be defeated by this Li Fei?"
"What is the background of this Li Fei, and who is his master?"
Hearing his grandfather's inquiry, Wu Yuqing felt aggrieved because he wanted to know the answer to this as well.
He, as a fifth-level Martial King and one of Capital City's ten youths, how could he lose to a newcomer like Li Fei?
And what is the background of this Li Fei?
"Grandfather, I don't know..." Wu Yuqing said dejectedly.
"Father, first he spoiled the chance between Yuqing and Deng Ziyu, and now he has beaten Yuqing's face like this. Tomorrow, I'm going to settle the score with him." Wu Yunci was livid.
However, Marquis Wuying advised Wu Yunci, "Yunci, do not act rashly. I promised Deng Fangzhen not to cause trouble for Li Fei. Right now, our priority is to find that woman. Avoid unnecessary complications for now."
Wu Yunci, eager for his son's sake, knew the importance of priorities.
"Yuqing, we'll discuss avenging Li Fei in a few days." He comforted his son.
Wu Yuqing nodded. Since being beaten by Lin Fei until his face was swollen like a pig's, he developed an internal fear of Lin Fei.
Without his father's intervention, he did not dare to seek revenge on Lin Fei himself.
The night passed without further incident. The next day, Wu Yuqing did not attend school but stayed home to recuperate. Recuperation was one reason; the more significant reason was that he couldn't face anyone.
After all, he was slapped by Lin Fei the previous day, had confessed to framing Lin Fei, and spiked his drink. Now, he had become the laughingstock of Capital City University.
His reputation was utterly ruined.
Returning to school now would be extremely embarrassing for him.
Unless Lin Fei suffered greater disgrace and became infamous, eventually expelled from Capital City University, Wu Yuqing could not return.
At that moment, as Wu Yuqing lay on the living room sofa, feeling dejected, footsteps approached, followed by the voices of two young men: "Young Master Wu, we heard you were injured. Are you feeling better?"
Wu Yuqing sat up and looked up to see two tall, long-legged men walking in.
Both were over 1.8 meters tall, muscular, and bore striking similarities in appearance, both quite handsome, seemingly twins.
What differed was the cold demeanor of the man on the left, contrasted with the perpetual smile on the face of the man on the right.
This indicated their personalities–one cold, one warm.
"Yang Zhan, Yang Feng!" Upon seeing the two, Wu Yuqing was delighted and quickly greeted them: "Come, have a seat!"
Yang Zhan and Yang Feng were sophomore students at Capital City University and Wu Yuqing's closest allies there.
"Young Master Wu, we have heard about the humiliation by Li Fei. How can we assist you?" Elder brother Yang Zhan asked Wu Yuqing with a stern expression.
Wu Yuqing recalled his grandfather's advice to delay taking revenge on Lin Fei for the time being and said to Yang Zhan, "Yang Zhan, let's put revenge on hold for now. Let's give Li Fei a few days of arrogance."
"Young Master Wu, are you afraid of him? Even if you are, we brothers aren't afraid. Let us avenge you." Younger brother Yang Feng stood up for Wu Yuqing.
Despite Yang Feng's words reflecting his thoughts, Wu Yuqing couldn't admit it and said, "It's not fear; it's waiting for the right opportunity."
