Chapter 381: Spirit Hall's Spirit Master Squad
After Yu Tianlin finished telling Yu Yuanzhen and the others about Yang Wudi, Yang Wudi quickly walked out of the mansion.
As soon as he appeared, he bombarded Yu Tianlin with questions.
"Yu Tianlin, is there a result from the matter last time? Is the poison you mentioned the seven-colored splendor? Has my brother really become Spirit Hall's lackey?"
He was clearly desperate to know whether his brother was a traitor. He even ignored Yu Yuanzhen and the others standing beside Yu Tianlin.
"Senior Yang, I came here this time to invite you to treat the poisoned person," Yu Tianlin said. "There is no time to waste. Could Senior Yang come with us? I will explain the specific situation on the way."
"You want me to see it myself? Fine!"
Hearing Yu Tianlin's invitation, Yang Wudi agreed without hesitation.
If he went there in person, he would naturally understand everything.
"Tell the Elders that I'm going out for a while and will return soon."
Yang Wudi said this to the Disciple guarding the gate, then followed Yu Tianlin and the others toward the imperial palace.
On the way, Yu Tianlin introduced everyone to one another.
Because Yu Tianlin had already told Yu Yuanzhen and Dugu Bo about Yang Wudi's abilities, they did not look down on Yang Wudi just because he was a Spirit Douluo.
As for Yang Wudi, he also had his own pride. Even when facing two Titled Douluo, he was neither servile nor overbearing.
After they became briefly acquainted, Yu Tianlin explained the situation to Yang Wudi and also brought Qian Renxue into the matter.
"You mean this Qian Renxue, the daughter of the former Pope of Spirit Hall, was the one who poisoned Emperor Xue Ye with the seven-colored splendor mixed poison?"
After understanding the situation, Yang Wudi immediately glared at Qian Renxue as if he wanted to devour her alive and questioned loudly, "Where did your seven-colored splendor mixed poison come from? Was it given to you by that bastard Yang Wushuang?!"
Qian Renxue did not answer Yang Wudi's question. She merely glanced at him with disdain, then closed her eyes and stopped looking at him.
Qian Renxue was a Spirit Saint with the Seraphim Martial Soul, while Yang Wudi was only a Spirit Douluo with extremely strong advantages but equally obvious weaknesses. If the two of them truly fought, Yang Wudi would not be her opponent. That was why Qian Renxue could not even be bothered to respond to him.
Even though Qian Renxue was currently down and out, reduced to a prisoner, she still had her pride.
Seeing Qian Renxue's attitude, Yang Wudi was instantly enraged and almost erupted on the spot to kill her. Yu Tianlin had to spend quite some effort before he finally managed to calm him down.
"Senior Yang, please calm down first. Qian Renxue impersonating the Heaven Dou Empire's Crown Prince and poisoning Emperor Xue Ye involves the Heaven Dou Royal Family. It would be best to explain the situation to Emperor Xue Ye after he is cured."
"As for the seven-colored splendor mixed poison, Senior Yang will know once you examine it."
Soon, everyone arrived at the imperial palace. With Dugu Bo present, they entered smoothly without encountering any obstruction.
Strictly speaking, Dugu Bo was a member of the Heaven Dou Royal Family's camp. With his status, bringing a few people into the imperial palace was a minor matter.
The group proceeded without hindrance until they reached the entrance of Emperor Xue Ye's sleeping quarters. There, they were stopped by a squad of heavily armored soldiers.
Dugu Bo clearly had not expected anyone to stop him. After a moment of surprise, he took out his Guest Elder token and said, "I have urgent matters to discuss with His Majesty. Move aside."
However, even after Dugu Bo displayed his Guest Elder token, the squad of soldiers remained unmoved. The squad leader even said coldly, "His Highness the Crown Prince has ordered that His Majesty is currently resting, and no one is to disturb him. Anyone who violates this order will be killed without mercy."
"Please return, everyone."
Hearing the squad leader's words, Yu Tianlin and the others immediately looked at Qian Renxue, their expressions somewhat speechless.
Qian Renxue also did not know what to say.
Their leader had been captured, and Snake Lance Douluo and Porcupinefish Douluo were already dead, yet her subordinates were still unaware of these facts. They remained loyal and dutiful, strictly carrying out her previous orders.
Seeing that these soldiers refused to let them pass, Yu Yuanzhen could not be bothered to waste words with them. He simply waved his sleeve, releasing his Lightning Power. A sea of lightning formed out of thin air, instantly enveloping the entire squad of soldiers.
A moment later, the sea of lightning dissipated, revealing the entire squad, including the captain, sprawled on the ground after being electrocuted.
"These fifty soldiers are all Spirit Masters from Spirit Hall, aren't they?" Yu Yuanzhen said after easily dealing with them. "I sensed the spirit power fluctuations in their bodies. Their cultivation is all above rank 50."
Qian Renxue lowered her head and remained silent.
Yu Yuanzhen had only said it casually. Even if Qian Renxue did not answer, he did not care. He directly led everyone into Emperor Xue Ye's sleeping quarters.
Emperor Xue Ye was currently unconscious. His face was purplish-black, making it clear at a glance that his condition was extremely poor.
When it came to detoxification, Yu Yuanzhen and Yu Tianlin, the grandfather and grandson pair, were both laymen. Thus, they merely watched from the side, while Dugu Bo and Yang Wudi quickly stepped forward.
Yang Wudi only used a silver needle to examine Emperor Xue Ye briefly before quickly identifying the poison in his body.
"It really is the seven-colored splendor. There is also another poison mixed in."
Yang Wudi's expression became very strange.
Although he had already learned about this from Yu Tianlin, when he truly confirmed it himself, he still found it somewhat difficult to accept.
This meant that his brother, Yang Wushuang, had indeed become Spirit Hall's lackey.
Yu Tianlin knew that Yang Wudi's mood was very complicated right now, but he still asked, "Senior Yang, what exactly is Emperor Xue Ye's current condition? And with this additional poison, can you still detoxify him?"
"Don't worry." Yang Wudi steadied his mind. "Although Emperor Xue Ye was previously poisoned by the seven-colored splendor, because he had been continuously taking targeted medicine, the seven-colored splendor had already been suppressed to its limit. Now, it is merely the final outbreak triggered by another poison."
"As for the other poison in Emperor Xue Ye's body, its subtlety is far inferior to the seven-colored splendor. Since he was poisoned with it recently, its erosion of his body is not severe."
"I can resolve it within two hours. It should not leave Emperor Xue Ye with any lasting problems. At most, his body will be somewhat weak afterward, and he can simply take some tonics to recover."
Hearing Yang Wudi's words, everyone present, except Qian Renxue, could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Emperor Xue Ye was out of danger and would not suffer any lasting consequences. This outcome could not be better.
After all, it had not been long since the two great clans formed an alliance with the Heaven Dou Empire. If Emperor Xue Ye died at this time, various problems would inevitably arise, and Spirit Hall might take advantage of the situation to infiltrate, potentially ruining the excellent situation they had built.
