After being forced into a marriage of convenience, a master of metaphysics manipulates a cold and al

As a member of the scum of the Xuanmen sect, Qiu Wude has always believed in lawlessness.

There are only two types of people who can frighten him.

First, there are the masters in the orthodox Xuanmen sect, those hypocritical people who often have nothing better to do than clean house.

Unfortunately, each of them possessed astonishing skills, making them impossible to defeat, ultimately leading to a tragic end.

The other type is the police.

In this society governed by the rule of law, anyone who commits illegal or disorderly acts trembles with fear before law enforcement agencies, and scoundrels from the Taoist sect are no exception.

Especially since they live in the city and never seek refuge in the deep mountains and forests, they know how troublesome it is to mess with the cops.

But Ye Bai in front of him looked ordinary and clearly had no connection with either of these two types of people, so Qiu Wude was naturally not afraid.

"Call out all your accomplices. If you're alone, I'm afraid I could punch you so hard you'd shit yourself."

Ye Bai glanced at Jiang Nuai next to Qiu Wude and confirmed that the teaching assistant had indeed fainted.

The breathing and heartbeat of someone feigning unconsciousness and someone who is truly unconscious are completely different.

"Hehe, this is the funniest joke I've heard in all these years!"

A fierce glint flashed in Qiu Wude's eyes, and he pounced on Ye Bai.

With lightning speed, he rushed forward in the blink of an eye, then reached out and grabbed Ye Bai's neck.

A second later, Ye Bai looked at Qiu Wude lying on the ground, his face covered in blood and unable to get up, and shook his head helplessly: "I told you you can't do it, why don't you believe me?"

He really only threw one punch, and he deliberately held back, worried about killing his opponent.

"You...who are you?"

Qiu Wude was no longer the arrogance he had been before; the sinister look in his eyes was now replaced by fear, and he asked in a trembling voice.

He practiced martial arts from a young age. Although limited by his talent, his skills were only in the middle to lower ranks among the scoundrels of the Xuanmen sect, but he could be considered a true master among ordinary people.

Moreover, besides martial arts, he also possesses other mysterious techniques that are impossible to guard against.

But to everyone's surprise, he was so easily defeated in front of this young man!

They didn't even have the chance to use those methods!

There is only one reason why this situation has occurred.

The difference in strength between him and his opponent had reached an outrageous level!

But how could a place like Jingzhou have such a young and top-notch expert?

Ye Bai ignored Qiu Wude and instead squatted down to feel Jiang Nuai's pulse.

Then, he took out a small porcelain bottle from his pocket and poured out a brown pill the size of a soybean.

"What...what are you going to do? Please..."

Seeing Ye Bai silently take out pills without saying a word, Qiu Wude was so frightened he almost peed himself and instinctively prepared to shout "Help!"

But before he could utter even half a word, Ye Bai moved his hand and stuffed the pill into Qiu Wude's mouth.

"Cough cough cough... What... what did you give me to eat?"

Qiu Wude tried to cough it up, but the pill was too small, and Ye Bai chose the right time to swallow it in an instant. Now, even if he coughed up his lungs, it would be of no use.

"Hmm, this is a good thing, it's called the 'Worry-Free Pill'. Just take one and you'll have a clear understanding of life, be carefree, and achieve complete enlightenment."

Ye Bai answered with a smile, while waiting for the medicine to take effect.

He made these pills himself, so their effects were certainly not as miraculous as he claimed.

It's a combination of hallucinogen and truth serum with serious adverse effects.

Its effect is to produce a hypnotic effect after people eat it.

But it is much more domineering than hypnosis. Once taken, the person will have no secrets left and will reveal everything they have done and know.

When used for interrogation, it can be described as an absolute marvel.

However, this drug has serious side effects.

It will cause severe damage to the central nervous system of the user, turning them into a complete idiot afterward, losing all their memories, and leaving them like a blank sheet of paper, like a newborn baby...

Completely enlightened, carefree.

Therefore, after Ye Bai refined it according to the ancient formula of the Xuanmen, he rarely used it.

Turning someone with minor sins into an idiot is too harsh. But for someone with grave sins, sending them straight to hell is sufficient; there's no need for such a complicated process.

But at this moment, this thing was perfect for these scoundrels of the Xuanmen sect.

He couldn't kill directly, but he had to punish the perpetrator. He also needed to extract the information he required from them, and afterwards, he couldn't allow them to reveal his identity.

All these things can be perfectly solved with a single "Worry-Free Pill".

"Ho ho ho..."

Half a minute later, Qiu Wude suddenly started grinning foolishly, his eyes no longer showing any fear, but instead filled with peace.

The medicine took effect.

Just to be on the safe side, Ye Bai picked him up and walked into the deepest part of the forest.

After a while, Ye Bai carried the unconscious Qiu Wude back to the original spot, his expression constantly changing.

This black-robed Taoist priest named "Qiu Wude" did not hold a high position among the scoundrels of the Xuanmen sect.

Due to his status, his knowledge was naturally limited.

However, Ye Bai also obtained some useful information from the other party.

The death of Dong Yang, the medical student, was indeed related to them.

The reason is not complicated. These guys somehow got information that there are several rare medicinal herbs in the medical school, which are extremely valuable.

This naturally holds immense allure for the corrupt members of the Xuanmen sect, who have always been driven by greed and lust.

It's no exaggeration to say that if they succeed in this job, even if they can't retire early, they can at least enjoy a comfortable life for another ten or eight years.

Finding out where those medicinal herbs are stored is a difficult task.

The principal must know, but they wouldn't dare to make a move against such a powerful figure easily, otherwise it would be easily exposed.

So in the end, they approached medical students to see if it would work.

By sheer coincidence, Dong Yang became their first target.

So they sent one of their accomplices to impersonate a "mysterious master" skilled in fortune telling and face reading, and began to deceive him.

Although Dong Yang was young, he was not stupid. He quickly realized that these guys were not good people, so he kept delaying.

He readily agreed verbally, but he had no intention of checking where the medicinal herbs were stored for them.

In the end, they even prepared to call the police and bring these scheming individuals to justice.

This naturally angered the black-robed Taoists, who were already vicious and ruthless, and they couldn't stand it. So they decided to teach Dong Yang a lesson and let him know who the boss was.

But it was just a lesson learned.

Dong Yang, they didn't kill him...
