Douluo: Wuhun Seven Killing Sword, Sword Opens the Gate of Heaven

Chapter 275: The fake master treats the old patriarch of the Hong family

The girl looked aggrieved, but under Hong Kui's coercion, she still reluctantly kowtowed to Ning Tianchen and apologized.

Hong Kui smiled and said, "My little girl, Hong Xinyue, is used to playing around and has angered you. The Hong family is willing to pay any price to compensate you."

Ning Tianchen took a deep breath.

To be honest, he almost released murderous intent because of the girl's attitude just now.

The girl only had soul power at level 39, so she could not withstand his murderous impact and might explode and die on the spot.

After calming down, Ning Tianchen looked at Hong Xinyue. In her, he seemed to see the former Ning Rongrong.

No longer dwelling on the matter, he shook the teacup and said calmly, "Master Hong, your guests have arrived. We can talk about our business later."

Hong Kui's customer is a healing Soul King, but he is very arrogant. It is estimated that Hong Kui needs a favor from him, so it is no wonder that he is in such a hurry to clear out the teahouse.

Hong Kui was a shrewd man. He rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "My dear friend Tianchen, why don't you come with me to see Master Peng Shun?"

The other party is not very old, but has such a high level of cultivation. I guess he has the support of a powerful force.

What he wanted to do was nothing in front of the big forces. If he could take the opportunity to get close to a big man, it would be of great help to the Hong family.

Ning Tianchen did not refuse and walked down the stairs with Hong Kui.

"Master Peng Shun, I've heard a lot about you." Hong Kui greeted him politely with a bow.

The therapist named Pang Shun nodded in agreement and then found a table to sit down.

Hong Kui dared not be negligent and immediately poured him some good tea.

After sitting down, Peng Shun said indifferently: "Master Hong is not strict in governing his subordinates. When will the servants be able to sit at the table?"

There were a total of four people at the table, besides him there were the Hong family father and daughter and Ning Tianchen.

Hong Xinyue has a great reputation, and this person should know her. So the servant he mentioned is Ning Tianchen.

In the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect, there is one Soul Sage-level healing soul master, more than a dozen Soul Emperor-level healing soul masters, and it is not an exaggeration to say that Soul King-level healing soul masters are everywhere.

Who does this Pang Shun think he is? How dare he put on such high airs?
When Ning Tianchen was about to get angry, Hong Kui quickly came to his rescue, "Master, you may not know that this person is the eldest son of an old friend of mine. He is a guest of the Hong family this time, so we cannot neglect him, right?"

Peng Shun stopped pestering, took a sip of tea, and said leisurely: "I already know about your father's affairs. However, should the reward promised by the head of the Hong family be..."

Hong Kui cupped his hands, "Master, rest assured, I will never break my promise."

Ning Tianchen on the side was also analyzing it in his mind.

Those who claim to be masters usually have no real talent or knowledge. This Peng Shun must have grasped the weakness of the Hong family, so he dared to boss Hong Kui around.

Judging from Hong Kui's attitude, it is obvious that he urgently needs the help of this master.

Peng Shun is a healing spirit master, so it seems that the Hong family must have something that urgently needs treatment.

"Master, please move aside?" Hong Kui made a gesture of invitation.

Peng Shun snorted coldly, "Master Hong, is this how you treat guests? This master has come all the way here, and I can't even finish a sip of tea."

As he spoke, he rubbed his stomach.

Hong Kui immediately understood, "I'm sorry, I was obsessed. I will host a banquet at Xiangyue Tower later, please come over later."

If someone needs help from him, Hong Kui doesn't want to bother with the other person.

After receiving a positive response from the other party, Hong Kui immediately left the teahouse on the pretext of contacting the restaurant.

"Master Hong seems to have an urgent matter and needs that guy's help?" Ning Tianchen asked calmly.

Hong Kui did not give a direct answer, but asked instead: "If it were you, my friend, what would you do in the situation just now?"

Ning Tianchen sneered and said, "No matter whether he has real talent or not, based on his attitude, he must be taught a lesson first."

If Peng Shun acted arrogantly in front of Ning Fengzhi, the sect disciples would let Peng Shun know why the flowers were so red without Ning Fengzhi's instructions.

Hong Kui smiled bitterly, "To be honest, my father was injured. If he is not treated in time, it may damage his blood and affect his life span."

"Xinyue, take your friend for a walk around the city. Your father has some things to do."

As he spoke, he bowed to Ning Tianchen and said, "My dear friend, I have to excuse myself."

After Hong Kui left, Hong Xinyue completely released her nature.

However, she was afraid of the strength Ning Tianchen had shown before. Without Hong Kui by her side, she would not dare to disrespect Ning Tianchen.

"Hey, hey, what's your relationship with Ning Tianchen from the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect?" Hong Xinyue asked casually.

Perhaps seeing the shadow of Ning Rongrong in the other person, Ning Tianchen replied with interest: "What do you think is the difference between us?"

Hong Xinyue thought for a moment and said, "My father said that your strength is not weaker than his. I guess the only similarity between you and Ning Tianchen is your name. When Ning Tianchen was a Soul Master, he had the strength of a Soul King. Only two years have passed, so his strength breakthrough should not be fast. Anyway, you can't be him."

Ning Tianchen smiled faintly, "Why, have you seen him?"

Hong Xinyue put her hands on her hips and said proudly, "I was watching the finals. I forgot to tell you that I was a substitute for Qinglan College. Although our college was eliminated in the first round of the finals, we were watching the game from the sidelines the whole time."

Ning Tianchen had some impression of Qinglan College, which was a college located in the Xingluo Empire.

Hong Xinyue's current strength is close to level 40. Two years ago, her soul power was estimated to be around level 36, and she is indeed qualified to be a substitute player.

But at that time, Ning Tianchen had not paid attention to Qinglan College. Moreover, his temperament had changed greatly now, and people who were not familiar with him could not recognize his identity at all.

As for Hong Xinyue, she probably didn't pay attention to the Qibao Academy team at first, and only noticed them in the finals. During the finals, these eliminated teams could only squeeze into the audience seats to watch the game, and whether they could see the situation on the stage clearly was another matter.

"Really? I didn't expect that you, at such a young age, could become a substitute for the team." Ning Tianchen said casually.

Hong Xinyue seemed to have opened up a chatterbox and kept chattering, "Let me tell you, because I was young before, my family let me go to Qinglan College as a substitute so that I could gain more experience. In the next Soul Master Competition, my father said that he would let me go to a better college and become a main player."

Three years later, her strength reached that of a mid-level soul master, and she was indeed qualified to become a main player.

Despite her playful nature, her cultivation has not fallen behind, and her innate soul power is definitely not lower than level eight.

"What a pity, you won't have a chance in three years." Ning Tianchen said slowly.

In the original time and space, because of the soul hunting operation, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Family were injured and destroyed, causing panic among the people of the entire continent, so the Soul Master Competition was not held as scheduled. After that, there was a war that lasted for several years.

It can be said that there will not be any soul master competitions in the next ten years or so.

"Bah, bah, bah, don't talk nonsense. With my strength, I only need to practice hard for a period of time and I may even have the chance to become the captain or vice-captain of the team. How could I not be able to participate in the competition!" Hong Xinyue was a little dissatisfied.

Ning Tianchen did not answer and turned to walk towards the horse market nearby.

"Hey, hey, hey, are you listening to me?" Hong Xinyue stomped her feet in anger.

But she was no match for Ning Tianchen, and Hong Kui asked her to take good care of him. No matter how unhappy she was, she could only "swallow her anger".

After catching up with Ning Tianchen, she could see clearly that this was the horse market in the city.

Relatively speaking, horses in the north are taller, while horses in the south are relatively shorter.

In the Xingluo Empire, those tall and powerful Arabian horses were almost all obtained from the neighboring countries in the north.

In the horse market, most of the horses are local. Occasionally, you can see tall and fine horses, but these horses are very old and their hooves are badly worn. They are obviously eliminated from other places.

"Isn't that the eldest daughter of the Hong family? Why is she following that young man?"

"Oh, looking at how well behaved Miss Hong is, I guess she must have been taught a lesson many times."

"Stop talking, stop talking. They are coming. Everyone knows the temperament of the eldest lady of the Hong family."

Ning Tianchen was very perceptive. Hearing the discussions of the people around him, he suddenly smiled and said, "It seems that you are very famous."

Hong Xinyue curled her lips, "These guys only know how to gossip. Let me teach them a lesson later."

Through the eyes of these people, Ning Tianchen could roughly judge what kind of person Hong Xinyue was.

There was worry and tension in the eyes of these people, but there was no fear or terror. It was obvious that Hong Xinyue was not the kind of person who was unforgivable. At most, she could use her status to suppress others, but she would not destroy others' families.

After a pause, she asked curiously, "You want to buy a horse?"

Ning Tianchen nodded in agreement.

She continued, "You've come to the wrong place. The horse markets in the Xingluo Empire are full of these short horses. If you want good horses, you should go to the Tiandou Empire."

As she spoke, her eyes rolled and she smiled evilly, "But if you say something nice to me, maybe I will be persuaded and choose a few BMWs for you from my house."

After hearing her words, Ning Tianchen felt relieved.

The Hong family must have a BMW!
Now that we have established contact with the other party, why worry about not getting a good horse?

Ignoring the other party, Ning Tianchen just looked at the horse.

"My dear, one of the main businesses of the Hong family is selling horses. If you want a BMW, you should go to them." A stall owner who heard the conversation reminded him. Hong Xinyue said proudly, "Our customers are the imperial army. Please say a good word to me, and you can choose any BMW you want."

Ning Tianchen shook his head helplessly. This girl looked exactly like Ning Rongrong.

However, he was not interested in Hong Xinyue.

Looking up at the sky, he said, "It's almost noon. Let's go back. It's time to eat."

"Hmph!" Stamping her feet, Hong Xinyue reluctantly took him back.

After they left, the horse market became lively.

Being able to see the eldest daughter of the Hong family being humiliated with one's own eyes is definitely a topic of conversation after dinner.

……

Hong Kui directly booked the Xiangyue Tower and such a treatment was considered to be giving enough face to Pang Shun.

But at the dinner table, Pang Shun was dissatisfied with the food, which made Hong Kui embarrassed.

In the end, it was the dancer that Hong Kui found who attracted the other party's attention, and the matter was resolved.

After dinner, Hong Xinyue approached Ning Tianchen and said, "My father invites you to visit the Hong Mansion. Do you want to go?"

"Is this your attitude when inviting people?" Ning Tianchen asked back.

Hong Xinyue gnashed her teeth and said, "It's my fault. Master Tianchen, would you like to visit the Hong Mansion?"

"Lead the way." Ning Tianchen said seriously.

The Hong Mansion is not in Liushui City, but in Fengwu City, twenty miles away.

Sitting on the Hong Mansion's carriage, Ning Tianchen could recognize at a glance that the horses pulling the carriage were cold-resistant BMWs.

Hong Xinyue was dragged away by Hong Kui to keep Ning Tianchen company, and he was happy to have some peace and quiet.

Half an hour later, the carriage entered Fengwu City and drove all the way to the city center until it stopped in front of a huge mansion.

After getting out of the car, Hong Kui needed to receive Peng Shun in person, so Hong Xinyue took Ning Tianchen on a tour of the mansion.

"Won't you take me to see your grandfather?" Ning Tianchen asked.

He has a lot of healing herbs in his hands. The effect may not be as fast as the healing soul skills, but it can also heal most injuries.

Hong Xinyue was furious, but the target of his anger was not Ning Tianchen: "Don't make things worse. Dad spent so much money to invite this healing spirit master, he should be able to cure Grandpa."

Ning Tianchen asked with a smile: "Did that Peng Shun put his hands on you?"

Hong Xinyue's face changed drastically, and she hurriedly explained: "No, don't talk nonsense and tarnish my innocence!"

Next, at Ning Tianchen's repeated request, Hong Xinyue took him to the old patriarch's house.

"Why are you here?" Hong Kui asked casually and didn't ask any further questions, as if he didn't care about the result.

Ning Tianchen asked: "Did Peng Shun go in?"

Hong Kui: "The master has been in there for a few minutes. I think he can cure the old man."

When he spoke, his confidence was obviously insufficient. It was obvious that he had asked other healing spirit masters before, but they were ineffective.

About an incense stick later, Pang Shun walked out of the room.

Hong Kui hurriedly inquired about the situation.

Peng Shun rebuked, "Master Hong, you are not telling the truth. The old master was clearly poisoned, but you told me that it was an internal injury. How can I treat him?"

It seemed that he wanted to use an angry tone to cover up his incompetence.

Ning Tianchen said: "Let me go in and take a look. I also have some methods for detoxification."

"Just you? You are nothing, you little brat. I can't handle this."

Before Peng Shun finished speaking, a dark white murderous aura emerged from Ning Tianchen's body and enveloped him.

The realm of the God of Death!
Peng Shun seemed to see countless ghosts and monsters attacking him. He was so frightened that his body froze in place, and a clear yellow liquid flowed out from his trouser legs.

"Who do you think you are? You are just a healing soul king, how dare you be so presumptuous!"

Ning Tianchen's words were like the words of a Shura, which frightened Peng Shun so much that he kept begging for mercy.

This time, Hong Kui chose to stand idly by.

After Ning Tianchen entered the room, he even ordered his men to strip Peng Shun naked and throw him onto the street.

The room was filled with smoke.

According to Hong Kui, this is some kind of aromatherapy that suppresses toxins.

Lying on the bed was an old man with a thin figure and sunken eye sockets.

The moment Ning Tianchen's hand touched the other person's arm, the other person in return grabbed his wrist.

"Young man, you are so powerful at the age of sixteen. You must be from some powerful force." The old man said weakly.

Ning Tianchen responded calmly, "Did you offend some kind of poisonous soul beast while hunting souls, and were you scratched by it?"

The old man's withered face gave a bitter smile that looked extremely ferocious. "A few years ago, when I was looking for medicinal herbs in the Xingdou Great Forest, I met two people."

"I don't know the identity of one of them, but I remember the identity of the other one very clearly. He is Poison Douluo Dugu Bo."

Ning Tianchen was a little confused.

The poison that the old man was poisoned by has nothing to do with the venom of the green phosphorus snake, so why involve Dugu Bo?

Based on the old man's subsequent description, Ning Tianchen finally understood the situation.

It turned out that when Dugu Bo helped Ke Jie obtain the ninth soul ring, he accidentally caused a riot among the soul beasts.

When the old man was looking for medicinal herbs, he was sprayed with venom by a 40,000-year-old black water python.

He cleansed himself immediately, but the poison still entered his body.

Later, he ran into Dugu Bo and Ke Jie. Feeling sorry for him, Dugu Bo threw him a bottle of detoxification pills, which temporarily suppressed the toxins in his body.

A year ago, after taking the detoxification pill, the toxins in his body could no longer be suppressed until they erupted.

More importantly, a year ago, he was severely injured by a soul beast while helping an old friend hunt souls.

The poisoning and severe internal injuries caused this powerful Soul Saint in his sixties to become as emaciated as he is today.

"Are you sure it's the poison of the Black Water Python?" Ning Tianchen asked.

His pharmacology level was average, so it was difficult for him to distinguish which toxin the poisoning symptoms corresponded to.

The old man said weakly: "Not long ago, a healing spirit master visited me and confirmed that it was only the poison of the Black Water Python, not a mixed poison. Unfortunately, he can only stabilize the hidden injuries in my body. As long as the poison is not removed, my internal injuries will never be healed."

As long as it's snake venom, it's simple.

Ning Tianchen turned away, took out a knife and cut his palm, then caught the dripping blood in a glass cup, then took out several powdered medicines from the soul guide and mixed them into the blood.

After being tempered by the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire, his blood was almost immune to all poisons. And those medicinal powders were just ordinary snake venom antidotes.

With two tubes, the venom of the Black Water Python is no longer a concern.

After being brewed with water, the color of the blood was diluted and the old man was asked to drink the potion.

"Let's see the effect in two hours. If there is improvement, I will continue to prepare this medicine for you. After that, you need to treat your internal injuries at the same time."

"Thank you very much." After saying that, the old man closed his eyes.

The conversation just now obviously consumed too much of his energy and he was in urgent need of rest.

After leaving the room, he communicated with Hong Kui.

He was not a doctor, so he could not guarantee that the medicine could cure the disease, but there was no problem in saving the old man's life.

Hong Kui bowed and said, "Why don't you stay at my house first? I can also host a banquet for you later."

Ning Tianchen waved his hand, "No need to do that, just take what you need."

The purpose of his coming here was very clear, which was to get a horse from the Hong family that was strong enough to withstand the cold in the north.

Hong Kui understood and felt relieved.

You know, if Ning Tianchen didn't ask for anything, he would definitely not use his full strength during treatment. Now that there is a need, he will do his best.
