Chapter 94: Return to Lotus Village
Just as Peng Dawei finished speaking, an abrupt voice suddenly rang out. Everyone looked towards the source of the sound, only to see Chen Tianlong lift his head and speak very seriously.
Everyone was stunned, looking at Chen Tianlong in disbelief.
Previously, when he mentioned poisoning by a mixture, no one believed him. Later, when it was confirmed, they began to feel that Chen Tianlong was somewhat unfathomable. Could it be that this guy really has a solution now?
Even Lin Batian began to doubt, but at this moment, he had no other choice but to believe.
"What a joke... This poison is incurable."
"There is a way, but I need to take Lin Wushuang away."
Chen Tianlong was not indicating that he could cure it, but that his master, Chen Tian, could. Although he heard that his master had recently secluded himself, he didn’t care about that now.
"Alright, Tianlong, I trust you," Lin Batian suddenly mustered the courage to say. Rather than let his daughter wait here to die, it was better to trust Chen Tianlong and take the chance.
"Don’t worry, Mr. Lin, I will ensure Wushuang returns safely," said Chen Tianlong as he took Lin Wushuang from the ambulance into his arms and then ran to the carport, driving a BMW away from the school in an instant.
Leaving behind a crowd of astonished people, filled with disbelief, but even more with tension and worry.
Chen Tianlong drove straight to the westernmost part of South Sea City. This was a forest, and deeper into the forest was his hometown, Lotus Village.
This place was surrounded by mountains and waters, full of lotus trees, with beautiful scenery.
Chen Tianlong never imagined that returning here again would be to save a woman.
Upon entering the Lotus Village area, there was a 500-meter zone filled with traps. Had Chen Tianlong not been accustomed to this path since childhood, it wouldn’t have been so easy to break through.
Because of the traps, Lotus Village did not fortify this area, and when approaching the village entrance, four or five people jumped out from around him.
"Tianlong, you’re back?"
The village’s Huang Daniu immediately recognized Chen Tianlong, as he’d only been gone for less than a month, making the impression strong.
"Big Bull, there’s no time now. I need to see my master. My friend is poisoned and near death." Chen Tianlong didn’t chat with them much; saving a life was most important now.
"Huh? Poisoned? Tianlong, but your master seems to be in seclusion; you know that." Huang Daniu reminded him.
"Let’s not worry about that now. I’ll go plead with him."
Chen Tianlong wouldn’t return without completing his mission, but his relationship with Chen Tian was like that of a father and son, and he believed he wouldn’t just stand by.
"Alright."
Huang Daniu had no choice. Whatever Chen Tianlong decided to do, it was a must with his personality, and no one could stop him.
"Tianlong..."
A group of young men from the village saw Chen Tianlong return and called out one after another. He was the legendary figure of their village and the prized disciple of Chen Tian, with significant influence.
"Rude!"
Suddenly, a figure in white flashed out, revealing a tall man standing in front of him. This person was about 1.8 meters tall, wearing a white shirt and black tight pants.
Below his face, there was a scar about three or four centimeters long. He looked very stern, standing on the steps with a commanding presence.
"Master Three, I need to find the Master for help."
Upon seeing Ye Feng, Chen Tianlong halted immediately. In Lotus Village, besides his master, he respected the other two masters the most. They were no less powerful than Master Chen Tian, especially Ye Feng, known for his wisdom and as an excellent assassin.
"Tianlong, you’ve already left Lotus Village, promised the three masters to complete the task. Now you’ve come back without completing it, which is unlike you," Ye Feng said blandly.
Chen Tianlong took a deep breath, understanding Master Three’s point, but the current situation was urgent with no other options. Only Master Chen Tian could neutralize the poison.
"Master Three, my friend is about to die. Please help. I need to see the Master."
"This doesn’t seem to have anything to do with me, does it?" Master Three remained as cold as ever, unchanged, rightly called the King of Assassins by his master.
"Thump!"
Just then, the sound of someone kneeling on the floor broke out, causing Ye Feng to turn his head instinctively, looking surprised.
This individual, once known as the Prank King, Chen Tianlong, was pleading for a woman. Incredible! Even the companions behind him were dumbfounded.
"Master Three, Tianlong has never begged anyone. Today I beg you, please help me," Chen Tianlong was somewhat helpless. After all, only Master Chen Tian could resolve this poison.
"Sigh..."
"Ye Feng had no other choice. This was something Chen Tian instructed: don’t let Chen Tianlong return before completing his mission, which could spoil him."
"But Ye Feng, after all, was Chen Tianlong’s mentor, and he couldn’t just let it be."
"Alright, just this once. Make sure not to come back until you’ve completed the task in the future. You know this could bring disaster to our Lotus Village."
Ye Feng said this for a reason. Chen Tianlong’s outings weren’t simple; he might bring back all sorts of unresolved issues. If he got tracked by someone intent on harm, Lotus Village would not be peaceful anymore.
They didn’t want anything happening to Lotus Village.
"Yes, thank you, Master Three." Chen Tianlong was overjoyed and quickly stood up.
"What about this girl?"
"Poisoned!"
"What poison?"
"Heart-Eroding Hundred Poison Powder."
"What?"
Ye Feng didn’t speak further but widened his eyes and then quickly walked forward.
Meanwhile, Chen Tianlong didn’t dawdle and followed directly. After reaching the living room, Ye Feng told Chen Tianlong to wait while he went to the secret room to inform Chen Tian.
About ten minutes later, Ye Feng reappeared in the hall but with a worried expression. Chen Tianlong saw this and knew things weren’t going smoothly.
"Tianlong, Old Chen said he won’t come out of seclusion before it’s time," Ye Feng said with a bitter smile.
"Then...what to do? I can wait, but my friend only has a few hours of life left," Chen Tianlong was anxious, not expecting that coming to Lotus Village still couldn’t save Lin Wushuang.
"What’s your relationship with this woman?"
Master Three didn’t directly answer Chen Tianlong but replied ambiguously.
"Well... She’s my employer, or rather, the person I’m tasked to heal this time."
"In this case... There is a way, only the girl might... have to suffer a little."
Ye Feng didn’t specify, as it was difficult to bring up.
"What?"
Being a smart person, Chen Tianlong knew what Master Brother was hinting at. However, at this crucial moment, if he did something untoward, surely the Chen Family wouldn’t blame him.
"Alright, Master Three, just order me, and I will do it," after pondering for a moment, Chen Tianlong declared firmly.
Seeing Chen Tianlong’s determination, Ye Feng nodded, and led him to an empty room, where he had already instructed his men to arrange a bathtub.
"Master Three, is this going to be a bath?" Chen Tianlong asked, puzzled.
