Chapter 227: Chapter 226 Poisoning

"That's right. This is the reason why your qi and blood are not flowing smoothly. You have always relied on advancing your cultivation to heal, but the hidden injury never got better, which could cause a blockage in your qi and blood at critical moments. You can't continue to advance your cultivation anymore. You must first address this issue," Tang San said."So, what should I do?" Mu Yunyu immediately became anxious.

Tang San said, "The meridians affected by the old injury need to be nourished with warmth; using the fire attribute bloodline power is the best way to dispel the chill within the injury and warm the meridians. Once the stagnation and congestion in your body are completely resolved, you will be fine. I think the mayor is the most suitable to help you."

Mu Yunyu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I see, I'll ask the mayor for help later. How do you know so much at such a young age?"

Tang San smiled and said, "Naturally, it was Mayor Teacher who taught me."

If there was something he couldn't explain clearly, he would let the teacher take the blame.

"Teacher Mu, I would like to buy some herbs," Tang San finally revealed his intention.

"Sure, pick them out yourself."

Tang San entered the small shop, selected the herbs he had already thought of in his heart, paid for them, bid farewell to Mu Yunyu, and returned to his own room to start concocting his medicine.

Heavenly Fire Fine Iron was the most convenient for heating, and for the first time since arriving in this world, Tang San began to concoct the medicines from the Tang Sect of his previous life.

Two days went by in the blink of an eye.

After school in the afternoon, Pretty Girl once again came to Jiali Plaza. She had made all sorts of preparations, and for her, Asura's plan was just one part of the operation. If Asura's plan did not succeed, she would have to follow her plan.

Whether it was the assassination of the Diamond Bear leader or the Chief of the Wind Wolf Clan, her goals were twofold. One reason was that these venerable nobles of Jiali City were supporters of the Peacock Demon Clan's legitimacy, forming an obstacle to her most important future plan to inherit the Demon King title. The other was of course that those from the Monster Race that were attacked had committed evil deeds against humans.

Pretty Girl's second type of Bloodline Cultivation required the accumulation of killing intent. Killing stronger opponents, especially those of a higher rank, was most beneficial for stimulating her bloodline, aiding in the advancement of her cultivation.

She was not disappointed. As soon as she arrived at the small inn's entrance, she spotted the familiar figure in the same corner as last time.

The two entered the inn one after the other, going to that familiar room.

Asura followed behind her into the room; it was his third visit here, and he knew his way around well. Unfortunately, they were not here for a date—how great that would have been!

Asura took out the map and handed it to Pretty Girl.

"Are you ready?" Pretty Girl asked.

Asura nodded and said, "Yes. We'll start the operation shortly. You hide here near the Ancestral House." He spread out the map and pointed at a spot on it.

"That's the front yard. What can be done there?" Pretty Girl asked with confusion.

Asura said, "You don't need to do anything, just wait for my message. If I run into trouble and need your support, I'll notify you."

Seeing the mistrust in Pretty Girl's eyes, Asura said helplessly, "Trust me this once, I'll prove it with my actions."

"Alright," Pretty Girl nodded.

Asura opened the window and checked the sky outside. "Their ritual time is at the moment when the sun sets, right?" The ritual times of the same race wouldn't easily change.

"Yes."

"When the sun begins to set, that's when we'll start our operation," Asura took a deep breath and said.

The bright sky gradually darkened as the sun slowly set in the west, its dying rays as red as blood, seemingly in silent correspondence with the blood sacrifice that was about to begin.

Asura and Pretty Girl were both somewhat silent. They knew they couldn't stop the blood sacrifice, otherwise, they would expose themselves and their plans would be unable to proceed. The only thing they could do was to seek revenge for their fellow clan members.

Asura's fists clenched subconsciously; he couldn't help but think back to that day, the day when Teacher Wang Yanfeng had shielded his vision, sparing him from witnessing the most brutal moment. It was from that day on that his second objective in this world had emerged.

"Let's go," Asura said softly, and in the next instant, he had already passed through the window. With a single flicker, he had vanished into thin air.

Pretty Girl watched his departing figure, her body twinkling with silver light, and she too disappeared without a trace. Searᴄh the nôvelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

The scope of the Ancestral House of the Wind Wolf clan was even larger than that of the Diamond Bear's last time, as this was, after all, the core location of the Wind Wolf clan.

Asura climbed onto the rooftop of the front courtyard of the Ancestral House from the side. From the backyard, there came the rhythmic roaring and howling of wolves. Without a doubt, the sacrificial ritual had already begun. Through the Spirit Rhinoceros Eye, he could see vague bursts of blood light emanating from the direction of the backyard.

Asura flickered and moved inward, taking advantage of Leopard Flash. Since it was an important day for the ritual, the entire Wind Wolf Ancestral House was heavily guarded, with watch posts every few steps.

However, if one looked closely, they would find that nearly none of these sentries were above the Fifth Stage of cultivation. The higher-ranked Wind Wolves should all be in the backyard at this time, participating in the sacrificial ceremony, the Wind Wolf clan's most important annual ritual.

The map of the Wind Wolf clan's Ancestral House had long been deeply etched in Tang San's mind. Utilizing Leopard Flash and the terrain, he silently reached the middle courtyard and quickly arrived at the kitchen area.

He quietly lifted a tile from above the kitchen and looked down. The kitchen was bustling with activity, with no human vassals in sight; all those busy here were from the Pig Monster Clan, vassals of the Wind Wolf clan. Steam mixed with the scent of meat rose upwards.

The kitchen was large, with at least fifty Pig Monsters busily working inside, clearly preparing food for the celebration that would follow the ritual.

Through the Spirit Rhinoceros Eye, Tang San's gaze penetrated the steam and swept across the inside of the kitchen. Quickly, his eye locked onto the rows of large urns on the west side. The elemental waves emanating from these urns indicated that they weren't water urns, but wine urns.

Besides the water element, there was also a certain degree of fire elements within the urns, a very distinct character trait.

Outside the kitchen, two Fourth Stage Wind Wolf Demons were guarding the place. Tang San had no intention of entering through the front door but carefully lifted more tiles instead. Thanks to the steam rising from the large pots of meat being cooked inside and the evening hour, the Pig Monsters below noticed nothing.

Tang San slipped in soundlessly, came to rest on a beam in the roof, and activated his Capturing Dragon skill to adhere his body there. He moved across the beam, getting closer to the position of the wine urns on the west side.

The Pig Monsters below were all sweating with their frantic efforts. For them, failing to prepare the food in time might lead to them becoming tomorrow's feast, so they dared not slack off.

With Leopard Flash activated, Tang San swiftly descended into a corner and curled up, staying perfectly still.

Time passed by in the waiting. The sky outside had also become completely dark.

Suddenly, the door to the kitchen was pushed open forcefully.

"The celebration begins, bring out the wine and meat," called a Wolf Monster at the door.

"Alright, alright," the leading Pig Monster in the kitchen hurriedly responded.

What they didn't know was that, just as all the Pig Monsters' attention was drawn to the door, a figure was rapidly flickering in front of the western wine urns.

Tang San swiftly dumped prepared packets of medicine into the urns. There were only simple lids on top of the urns, and with the full force of Leopard Flash, it took only a few seconds for him to have added the drugs to dozens of urns.

With one last Leopard Flash, Tang San shot out through the roof, landing back on top of the kitchen.

Continually using Leopard Flash at such high intensity made him breathe slightly harder, but he had achieved his goal.

Carefully returning the tiles to their original places, Tang San crawled on top of the kitchen, gazing in the direction of the Ancestral House's backyard.
