Chapter 546

546 Intruders?

While walking enter the inner area.

“Brother, why are you and grandpa being so late? Don’t you know the time?” Bai Ying asked curiously.

Yo Tang waved his hand.

“No brother, we are not late. Actually, we already enter Xian Yang city a few days ago, but because of a very shocking incident, our journey was stopped.”

Bai Ying frowned.

“What kind of shocking incident, brother?” he asked.

Grandpa Ou Yang who was walking beside Bai Ying stroked his beard. He nodded at Yo Tang who looked at him as if asking permission before continuing his speech.

“Hmh, there was a group of people from the Blue Bamboo clan who claimed to be attacked by a group of people dressed in black and destroyed all their belongings. Even with some members seriously injured. According to the head of the city’s security service, it is likely that they are the bandits who often act near the mountain. Therefore the Blue Bamboo clan decided not to attend the gathering to treat their injured members. We had time to help them before they could set off back to their clan. It’s really unfortunate, all their belongings were robbed to nothing, those bandits are amazing to be able to attack the members of the martial clan like that.”

Bei Yau who heard Yo Tang’s story stopped his movements.

.....

“Em, master Yo, do you know what kind of injured those clan members are?” asked Bei Yau.

Yo Tang thought.

“Erm, like a small needle stick wound, there are also knife cuts and the like, but the worst is a wound that resembles a burn. It’s very strange, the teacher and I had time to think how bandits could get such weapons like that. Where did they get it from?”

Bei Yau frowned. He widened his eyes and rushed towards the hall.

Bai Ying and Yo Tang who saw Bei Yau’s worried face followed after him immediately.

“Come on brother”

The atmosphere in the hall sounded crowded. Some of the small clans started making noise starting from a few unpleasant words to offending other clans.

“God damn it! What did you say earlier?”

Sang Guan Bai Lu who was standing in the centre was managing the guests who were starting to make other guests uncomfortable.

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

“Gentlemen, please calm down, please sit down and enjoy the food and drink first, all can be discussed properly.”

While Luo Xiang was still sitting quietly enjoying his tea. The smell was a little strange, he had just smelled it but the smell of tea that was not like the one he used to drink made him stop his intention. How could the tea in the beautiful mountain smell like this? Not like the tea he drank this morning.

Wait, it’s not like the tea he drank this morning. His eyes went wide.

“Elder Yi, don’t drink the tea,” said Luo Xiang, stopping Elder Yi’s hand from sipping the tea with his lips. The old man widened his eyes, and quickly lowered the cup in his hand.

“What do you mean Your Majesty? This...”

Luo Xiang looked at Ye Lu and Xi Hu who had just lifted the teacup and were about to drink it. He immediately threw the small cup in his hand toward Xi Hu, hitting the cup in his hand fell to the ground.

“Don’t drink it, the tea is poisonous!” Luo Xiang exclaimed.

Hearing Luo Xiang’s loud voice, everyone immediately turned to look at him. Including Xi Hu who immediately pushed away the cup that was already stuck to Ye Lu’s lips.

“Younger brother!”

All eyes turned to Luo Xiang who had already stood up from his seat. Including Sang Guan Yi Lu himself who was confused by what the Crown Prince was doing.

“Y-Your Majesty, what do you mean by poison?” how can it be poisonous? He held his neck, the old man had been drinking the tea for a long time and didn’t feel anything.

Luo Xiang looked at everyone inside. Look at the faces of people who may be suspicious of him. Yi Fang also looked around. Holding the hilt of his wide machete firmly. The Crown Prince couldn’t possibly make it up, whatever he said must be true.

Just as everyone was questioning and suspicious of each other, a voice came from the door.

It was Bei Yau who rushed in and walked over to Luo Xiang.

“Your Majesty” the young guard was impatient to share the news he thought he had with the Crown Prince.

“Your Majesty, there is an intruder here” he whispered.

Luo Xiang who was standing looking at everyone’s faces nodded slowly. Of course, there were intruders among those people. Luo Xiang looked at Bai Ying and the members of the Medicine Valley clan who had just arrived.

“Ying, go back to your room” he called.

Bai Ying who had just arrived at the door frowned at the serious face of the Crown Prince at that time. Has something bad happened?

Bai Ying was about to enter but Bi’s hand held him.’

“Your Majesty, let’s get out of here.” The maid knew how dangerous a situation was, and now looked like a dangerous situation.

But Bai Ying kept his hand on the door. He just went inside.

“Brother Tang Tang, please take the other siblings and Sis Bi to the bedroom bungalow,” said Bai Ying before heading towards the Crown Prince.

Bi widened her eyes, and the young girl almost followed inside when Yo Tang’s hand was holding her. The stocky young men glanced at their younger siblings.

“You take Master and Miss Bi to the bungalow, stay there,” said Yo Tang.

The Medicine Valley disciples nodded.

“Yes, brother,” don’t ask more questions and they go out fast. The teacher and disciples from Medicine Valley were only guests. Their martial arts were not as great as others, so better to just stay away in the safest place.

Bi looked at Yo Tang with big eyes.

“Young master Yo, let me in.”

Meanwhile, the stubborn Bai Ying had already entered and stood beside the Crown Prince. Recently Yo Tang had also approached and stood not far behind Bai Ying, he readied his sword on standby.

“What nonsense is this? We don’t feel poisoned! And if it’s true that this tea has poison, this must be Sang Guan Yi Lu’s doing right? All these drinks from him!” exclaimed one of the young men from the Young Sun clan. The man in the yellow dress was clearly eye-catching.

“Yeah that’s right, this tea is from them!” shouts the others.

Yi Fang raised his long machete blocking the ugly-faced men from advancing. The heavy machete turned out to be two thin swords stuck together, which would separate when needed.

“Take another step forward, don’t blame this machete falling at your feet” Yi Fang’s voice was deep and heavy. He and the members of the Golden Moon clan were on standby to ward off anyone who would make a fuss.

The young men dressed in bright yellow stopped where they were. Their eyes widened and they swallowed their saliva at the sight of the sinister-looking man. From the start, everyone would be afraid of him because Yi Fang’s scarred face showed how much combat experience he already had, who would want to deal with him?

“That’s right young master, no one is poisoned here, everyone looks fine, are you just wrong?” said a rather old man standing at the door on the left. His students agreed.

“That’s right, we already drank the tea, what do you mean by scaring everyone?” cried one of the students behind the old man.

Xi Lei and Xi Hu looked at each other for a moment. Xi Lei raised two fingers to tap his blood path, bad, he had already drunk the tea which he thought was a bit strange so he only took a sip of it. Even if it’s a little, if it’s really poisonous then the tea has entered his blood. Instead of blocking his blood path, Xi Lei actually felt his chest hurt, was he really poisoned? What poison is this?

“Father!” exclaimed Xi Hu who was anxious to see his father who was spewing some fresh blood from his mouth. Instantly all eyes turned to the anxious Xi Lei and Xi Hu.

Bai Ying was about to approach but the Crown Prince’s hand held him back.

“Ying, stay closed. Whoever it is, that person is among the guests.”

Luo Xiang held Bai Ying’s hand tightly.

“I’ve heard of this type of poison, the Black Water Clan once used it to attack Yue Yang’s army. This is neither the poison of the Black Rose clan nor the Poison Valley. Whoever you are, you know coming in here is a suicide, right? Or, did you guys have any plans beforehand?”

Everyone looked at each other. Each of the guests already felt their chests hurt. Sang Guan Yi Lu himself felt heavy, so Jian er who was standing not far from him helped his teacher to sit back in his chair.

“Master, sit down first.”

Sang Guan Yi Lu sat in a meditative position. Regulating his breathing and blood flow since the poison had also begun to affect his inner strength.
