Chapter 197: Hongxiu Mountain Villa
s a stall selling steamed buns, I'll go buy one for you. 。After saying that, he didn't care whether Xiao Yuge agreed or not, and ran to buy it. 。He came back soon carrying two flatbreads: “Ge’er, here..."Is it helplessness" Xiao Yuge narrowed her eyes, as if she thought of something: "Could it be that Lei Ting Ge has some means of controlling people Such as poisoning" Feng Yanniang's expression seemed to confirm her guess.
The Thunder Pavilion has a kind of poison called Seven Steps Haitang. It only requires an antidote once a year. Once it takes effect, as the name suggests, death is inevitable within seven steps.
Xiao Yu's song was stunned upon hearing this: "So this time, they went to pick up medicine for healing, while I went to pick up poison" No wonder that old Feng ran away so fast, it turned out he had found a scapegoat.
No, no. When she checked Wind Elder's body, he didn't have any poison in him. Could it be that the antidote she gave him was the Seven Steps Sea棠 poison
That's impossible! That poison sounds pretty potent, how could it be so easily cured What if Old Man Feng doesn't have the antidote this time Wouldn't he be done for
Feng Yanni lightly coughed twice: "Master, now I am acting on your behalf..."
Xiao Yu Ge only reacted after hearing the song, “Sister Feng, I didn’t know it would be like this. Let’s switch places instead.” Since she had promised Old Man Feng, she might as well see it through to the end. Surely with her medical skills, she could research an antidote.
Of course, she didn't know that the poison was actually developed by her master, Wu Hui Lao Ren. Crane Ming could resolve it, and perhaps she could too.
"Rest assured, Master. Since I agreed to take your place at the meeting, I've been prepared. Besides, there's an antidote for this poison every year, so I won't die." Feng Yanniang was surprisingly calm.
"What if the people from Thunder Pavilion discovered that you were a fake What would they do" Xiao Yu Ge suddenly realized that this legendary Thunder Pavilion was even more terrifying than she had imagined.
They would kill me outright, and the next day, there would be no more Frost and Snow Pavilion in the martial arts world!
"What" Xiao Yuge widened her beautiful eyes. She didn't expect the consequences to be so serious. Now, no matter what she said, it wouldn't make Feng Yanni dress up as her: "Sister Feng, let's change back immediately. I can't joke about your life and the lives of everyone in Frost and Snow Pavilion."
"Host, it's too late. I'm afraid the moment we leave the city gate, we'll be within the surveillance range of Lei Ting Ge. If we switch now, they'll become suspicious."
"I really didn't expect the consequences to be this serious..." Xiao Yuge muttered: Old man tricked me!
Feng Yiniang comforted her in return: "Master, rest assured. As you said, no one recognizes Feng Yingxue right now. I have never participated in the Alliance either, so no one will recognize us."
Xiao Yu Ge heard this and felt a little more at ease. She also silently made up her mind that no matter what, she would protect Feng Yan Niao's well-being: "If the old man has no antidote, then what should we do" Although she was a bit angry with the old man, she still didn't want him to die.
"Rest assured, host. Once a sect has a new leader and that new leader accepts the Seven Steps Begonia, Lei Ting Pavilion will definitely send someone to deliver the antidote to the old leader. This is an unspoken agreement between Lei Ting Pavilion and the leaders of all the sects."
"I see!" Xiao Yuge stroked her forehead, so she was chosen to be a scapegoat Then did that mean she had to choose someone from now on
Feng Yianrang saw her worry and smiled comfortingly: "Host, don't worry, this poison is harmless to the body, you just need to be loyal to Lei Ting Ge."
"Actually, this trip, I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse. There's something I haven't told you guys..." Xiao Yuge thought for a moment, then decided to take out the secret letter she had received before. She had been wanting to show it to them and discuss it these past few days, but she had secretly discussed it with Night Big Brother and made a decision. Now that Feng Yan Niang was replacing her, she didn't want to hide anything from her anymore.
Feng Yanniang picked up the secret letter with a puzzled expression. After reading it, her face changed drastically: "Sir, when did this happen"
It was probably a few days ago...
"What do you mean, master" Feng Yan'n had never felt this nervous before. This was the way to Hongxiu Mountain Villa, the path to the Alliance. Even carrying this letter, there was still a possibility of being strangled.
Of course, it's all forgotten.
"Have you discussed this with the Night Pavilion Master" Feng Yan'n naturally knew about her relationship with Ye Wuhuan.
"Night Elder also said that this matter needn't be taken to heart. If Old Qin wants to rebel, it's his business. Other sects probably wouldn't agree either. Besides, according to Night Elder, at this time, Thunder Pavilion is estimated to be on its way to Sky Sword Gate."
Feng Yanniang finally let out a sigh of relief: "Master of the building, you are right. Over the years, not everyone has rebelled against Thunder Pavilion. The consequences have been the same in every case. A person who can wipe out a country with a wave of their hand, what kind of sect dares to provoke them It's simply courting death!"
"When we get to Hongxiu Mountain Villa later, what if that Qin leader comes to discuss things with us What should we do" Xiao Yuge seemed to have no experience dealing with these matters of the Jianghu.
"The host can rest assured. My subordinate has heard from the old host that after arriving at Hongxiu Villa, besides being able to meet everyone from the Alliance in person, all other times are spent separately in their own courtyards and there's no opportunity to see each other."
Both of them were first-time visitors to Hongxiushan Villa. They didn't understand anything anyway, so they could only bite the bullet and go on.
At the entrance to Hongxiu Mountain Villa, someone stopped their carriage. Feng Yanniang calmly took out the token from the Frost Snow Tower. The man glanced at them and then made a gesture, signaling the next checkpoint guard to let them pass.
Along the way, numerous checkpoints made Xiao Yu Ge secretly admire. This Hongxiu Mountain Villa sounded like just a villa, but these layers of checkpoints were comparable to the strict security of the imperial palace. If someone wanted to do something here, they probably wouldn't live to see the next checkpoint. It seems that Qin, the leader of the alliance, is in for a tough day today.
They arrived at Hongxiushan Villa soon and instantly saw the gilded, crimson plaque with four large characters. The powerful brushstrokes exuded an air of nobility. From the outside, it was impossible to tell how vast this estate truly was because many smaller villas surrounded it, making it resemble a vast and mysterious labyrinth. With the sun just rising, one could easily lose their way if they took a wrong step.
The entire manor was built of high-quality solid wood, looking grand and majestic. It could be seen that the owner had put a lot of effort into it, even the patterns on the columns were carved very meticulously. The design within the garden was also ingenious, with lawns, gardens, streams, and hills complementing each other. Now that autumn has arrived, the maple leaves are all red and vibrant. A gentle breeze rustles them, causing the crimson leaves to dance in the wind and playfully fall into every corner of the garden, adding a unique touch of autumn color.
It's a pity that Xiao Yuge and the others had no heart to appreciate these. Because, people from several major sects arrived one after another. The manor arranged a steward for each sect, and each steward respectfully welcomed their guests into their rooms and then began to arrange meals.e carriage quickly disappeared around the bend.Xiao Yu sang carefully examined Qian Ting Xuan, making sure he had no other abnormalities before letting out a sigh of relief. She picked up the bowl of...
