Chapter 166: News From Fragrant Medicine Store

Cai Yunhai's gaze flinched as he felt Jia Hao's aura suddenly change. It wasn't as clumsy and playful as before.

' What's this brat thinking?'

Suddenly, Jia Hao's body blurred as he appeared right before Cai Yunhai. Channeling his internal energy, Jia Hao's sword shone with a crimson tint.

" Crimson Frenzy Aura!"

*SWISH! SWISH!*

With a huff, Cai Yunhai skipped a few steps back as he avoided Jia Hao's sword attack. Unlike before, his techniques completely changed.

His sword seemed to glow with that crimson tint as he kept slashing and slashing. Although each of the slashes looked like some sort of random slash, each of them was connected with another.

Not to mention, there was also Jia Hao's abnormal speed. His body was appearing and fading, like shadows in moonlight. Cai Yunhai's expression became a bit serious as he raised his saber.

" Take this!"

*CLANG! CLANG!*

Switching offense from defense, Cai Yunhai didn't choose to back down anymore. However, as he attacked Jia Hao, Jia Hao was able to barely dodge the attack.

Crouching his body, Jia Hao pounced forward, pointing his sword at Cai Yunhai's chest.

" Frenzied Stab!"

Cai Yunhai snorted as he raised his saber. " Ghost Wind!"

His saber made the wind wail as it sliced through all the stabs of Jia Hao. With an elegant arc, It shot towards Jia Hao's neck.

Jia Hao was alarmed as it was way too fast. Therefore, he could only use his sword to block it.

Lacing his sword with internal qi, Jia Hao could feel the sword covered with flame sparks.

*BOOM!*

Jia Hao pushed back greatly as he felt like his arms leaving his body. However, he adjusted his steps so he didn't fall down completely.

Cai Yunhai was a bit amused as his aura vanished. " Haha, I didn't think you would manage to make me use a bit of my internal qi."

' He was fighting without one now?' Jia Hao couldn't help but criticize inwardly.

Not to mention, that baleful killing intent Cai Yunhai accidentally released. Jia Hao felt like he was smelling the blood of freshly killed soldiers on the battlefield.

' Innate Realm Masters are so powerful. And this damned pot wants to use them as energy sources?'

" However, I have to admit. This round, you did well." Cai Yunhai rubbed his chin. " That sword form, I think I have seen it before? Isn't that Crimson Dagger Dojo's Crimson Frenzy Blade Art?"

" Father in Law is wise. It's indeed what you are thinking."

" How did you get it?" Cai Yunhai was surprised. " I thought only the core disciples were allowed to learn that technique? It's Crimson Dagger Dojo's core technique after all."

" Let's say, I had a chance encounter." Jia Hao spoke with an amused voice.

" Then what about your movement technique?" Cai Yunhai asked. " It's pretty...Good. It gives both agility and stealth. However, I can see that you are still clumsy at it."

This was the Fading Moon Steps which Jia Hao got from the Moonlight Rapist. Thanks to his ability absorption, he mastered the technique quickly.

But till now, there were quite a few chances for him to use it. So, his control of it was a bit weak.

Jia Hao's eyes shone when he heard that. " I see. So, It finally happened, eh?"

" Very well, Lead the way." Jia Hao adjusted his robes as a bright smile appeared on his face.

Cai Yixue and Minmin looked at Jia Hao and they glanced at each other.

" He is up to no good."

" I also think that."

It didn't take long before Jia Hao arrived at the Fragrant Medicine Store. He could already see a few disciples of Crimson Dagger Dojo standing outside.

As Jia Hao arrived, the workers of Fragrant Medicine Store bowed before him and took him in respectfully.

In the main room, Pharmacist Mo was sitting and a patient was lying before him. Pharmacist Mo checked his pulse and drew out some blood with a silver needle.

When he put the needle in a medicinal concoction, the needle turned pitch black with a purple shade.

Beside the patient stood a woman in her early twenties. She wore a black and red martial arts robe, with auburn hair tied into a long ponytail.

" Doctor Mo, I thought Violet Smoke Grass was prohibited?" The woman asked with a serious voice. " My father remained in the dojo for most of the time. How could he get poisoned by it?"

" Miss Qiuliu, As you can see, this silver needle already turned dark. This means Mr. Sang Qian is poisoned. As for what type of poison is it, we can guess because of this violet shade."

" There are very few poisons which can turn this concoction into a violet shade. And as far as Mr. Sang's symptoms showing, I believe it's Violet Smoke Grass."

" Do...Doctor Mo, Just tell me...If there are any cures."

" I... Maybe?" Pharmacist Mo spoke with a bit troubled tone. " However, I need to consult with another person."

" Doctor Mo, I beg to you. Please do everything you can. But please, save my father."

Sang Qiuliu was the daughter of Sang Qian. However, looking at the condition of her father, she couldn't help but kneel before Pharmacist Mo.

" Miss Qiuliu! Please, Get up!" Pharmacist Mo hurriedly replied. But then he saw Jia Hao arriving, making his eyes shine.

" Young Lord, You are here."

Jia Hao nodded as he looked at Pharmacist Mo and nodded. " Pharmacist Mo, I heard you were looking for me?"

" The master of Crimson Dagger Dojo, Sang Qian got affected by the Violet Smoke Grass." Pharmacist Mo replied.

" I would like to know everything from the beginning." Jia Hao looked at Sang Qiuliu. " Miss Qiuliu, Is it? Can you tell me?"

Sang Qiuliu looked at Jia Hao and nodded. " I...I can."

" Everything happened three days ago. Elder Lei was a bit worried when Lei Qinzhu, my junior disciple brother didn't return."

" But other than that, my father started to have a strange ache in his body. He felt his internal qi might have been disrupted. So he entered in seclusion training."

" However, Last night, he coughed a mouthful of black blood and fainted on the ground. He also felt his internal qi was getting all clogged and he couldn't channel it at all."
