Poison Doctor Roaming the Martial World

As the three figures drew closer, the woman being escorted had her face covered with a veil, and her loose hair obscured most of her face, making it impossible to see her true appearance.

The golden bell on her wrist jingled as she struggled, sounding particularly jarring in the chaotic scene.

Yao Yusheng closed her eyes in despair...

Although they hadn't spent much time together, they were practically inseparable. Others might not have recognized her, but Yao Yusheng recognized her at a glance.

It's Nangong Fu!!!

What an idiot, why is he still at the Grand Tutor's residence!

Yao Yusheng cursed inwardly, "We absolutely cannot let anyone discover Nangong Fu's identity!!"

She quickly composed herself, and when she opened her eyes again, she had regained her usual arrogance, her voice cold and authoritative, "Who is she? Why is she in the Grand Tutor's residence!"

A cold smile crept across Han Zhao's lips, his gaze sharp as a hawk's as he stared directly at Yao Yusheng. "That's a question you should ask Miss Yao: why did she appear at the Grand Tutor's residence?"

He then pointed his sword at the woman's gold pendant, saying, "Miss Yao's gilded armor is carved with jade hairpin flowers... This woman's gold pendant is also made of jade hairpin flowers... Judging from the patterns, it is very likely that they were made by the same master!"

Hosta is a plant unique to the southern Vietnamese region. It grows on the high peaks of the dense forests of the southern Vietnamese. In the southern Vietnamese, it is interpreted by women as a flower that waits for love, and therefore it is very popular among the women of the southern Vietnamese region.

Yao Yusheng's heart tightened, and she subconsciously curled her nail guard into her palm, but feigned innocence, "This humble woman does not know her! Nor does she know what a jade hairpin flower is, I..."

"Whether we recognize them or not, we'll find out before His Majesty! Guards, take them all away!!"

Han Zhao interrupted Yao Yusheng without any mercy, giving her no chance to explain.

Yao Yusheng glared at Nangong Fu resentfully, thinking it best to pretend she didn't know her!

If Emperor Dongli discovers that the Grand Tutor's Mansion has any connection with Nan Yue, then the Grand Tutor's Mansion is finished!

Nangong Fu felt truly wronged. Her courtyard had been struck by lightning and flooded for no reason, and she had no idea where so many poisonous creatures had come from.

Although we come into contact with these things on a daily basis, with them densely packed all over the yard, who could stand it...?

Even worse, during her escape, she was ensnared by a giant python and unable to move.

Moreover, the Gu worms he carried were thrown out, but before they could even attack, they were eaten by a small yellow snake!

Yes, they ate it!!

The Gu worms she painstakingly cultivated were eaten like snacks!

Nangong Fu's heart seemed to be bleeding...

Upon receiving the order, the Imperial Guards acted swiftly, escorting Yao Yusheng and the woman together towards the palace.

The following day, at Anguo Temple.

The copper bells on the eaves occasionally emit a delicate, ethereal sound in the gentle breeze.

Yang Jianwu, wrapped in a cloak, sat on a soft couch, abandoning her usual elegant tea-tasting demeanor and instead gulping down an enormous cup of tea with great relish.

"It's so sweet! I forgot to add more herbal jelly. It's delicious and good for your skin."

Master Konghui, sitting opposite, twitched his lips slightly, the black stone he was holding suspended in mid-air, hesitating about how to drop it.

Yang Jianwu slurped up some herbal jelly, chewed it down in two bites, and made sure to eat and drink well while playing chess.

"I hate playing chess. I have to think for ages about every move. The time spent thinking is not proportional to the result of the move. It's not worth it."

Master Konghui, "..."

Many people long to play a game of chess with him, but none of them can get it. This person, on the other hand, acts as if he's suffered some great hardship by asking her to play chess.

"Young friend Yang is still too young; he doesn't have the patience to play chess with an old man like me."

Master Konghui sighed.

Yang Jianwu quickly waved his hand to explain, "No, that's not it. I can chat with you or discuss other things. Playing chess is not my forte."

It's not that I don't know how to play chess, it's that I don't have the patience to play chess.

When she was with her master, Master Tie, she could freely exchange martial arts skills.

When with the Ghost Doctor, they can delve deeper into medical studies together;

He could even have a pleasant conversation with the old doctor, discussing things for several hours...

As for Master Konghui, every time we met, he would either play chess, meditate, or debate Buddhist teachings, which was extremely boring and tedious.

Only those with similar interests can have things to talk about; she and Master Konghui were like two people who couldn't see eye to eye...

As soon as Master Kong Hui's black piece landed on the board, Yang Jianwu followed closely behind, placing her piece as if strolling in a garden.

Back and forth they went, and the black pieces seemed to be running themselves ragged...

In the blink of an eye, the white pieces had built up a "golden corner and silver edge" on solid ground, as if separated by an insurmountable chasm.

Master Kong Hui's beard twitched as he looked at Yang Jianwu in disbelief. After so many years, this girl's chess skills were even better than before.

"Young friend Yang is definitely not good at playing chess??!!"

Yang Jianwu responded absentmindedly in a muffled voice, "Mm."

This is so boring, when will it end?

Smoke curled around the edge of the table as the contest continued for several rounds, the black and white jade pieces striking the chessboard with a crisp sound.

Seeing this, Master Konghui sighed helplessly.

The white pieces have formed a formidable galaxy formation, a game of chess, a world unto itself, where black and white pieces intertwine, displaying their brilliance.

If even a game like this can be considered weak, then wouldn't everyone else have no chance of living?

Master Konghui asked curiously, "May I ask what is Young Friend Yang's forte?"

Yang Jianwu pondered for a moment, then a sinister smile appeared on his face.

"I prefer to achieve my goals without bloodshed!"

If blood must be shed, then it should be the enemy's blood.

Master Konghui understood. "Just like what happened with Grand Master last night?"

"Shh-"

Yang Jianwu put her index finger to her lips, "Master Konghui, please don't accuse me. Last night I was clearly sharing His Majesty's burdens."

It is unreasonable for the princess of Nanyue to visit Dongli without presenting a letter of state.

To put it mildly, it was the princess who was playful and sneaked out for a stroll.

To put it more bluntly, that means he came to Dongli as a spy...

The reason why the princess of the enemy country appeared at the residence of the Grand Tutor of his own country is something that Emperor Dongli can judge for himself.

"What you're saying is true, young friend..."

Before the enemy could even act, the rebels nipped the threat in the bud, eliminating a potential danger for Emperor Dongli.

It was truly a bloodless victory, achieving three goals at once, and keeping the merits and fame hidden.

"May I ask you a question, young friend?"

Yang Jianwu nodded. "Master Konghui, please ask."

"How did you manage to make the lightning strike the Grand Tutor's residence so precisely?"

After Master Konghui determined Yang Jianwu's destiny as a phoenix star, he had no doubt about her abilities; he was simply curious.

"Well, that's a secret that can't be revealed!"

Yang Jianwu touched the tip of her nose guiltily. It wasn't the rainy season yet; how could she possibly have the ability to accurately attract lightning?!

It was simply a combination of two types of fireworks that created the lightning strike effect.

The flash bomb was thrown vertically upwards and exploded high in the sky, like a bolt of lightning streaking across the sky.

The Xiang 30 has tremendous explosive power and can knock down sycamore trees whose soil has been loosened in advance;

Sprinkle some flammable materials and white phosphorus around the area...

Everything was seamless, looking just like a natural lightning strike.
