My Pretty Campus Queen

Chapter 647 - 645: The Cure for the Poison

"Yes, I know that already." Jiang Yufan nodded and continued, "As for the remaining condition, you also noticed it, right? Both people must have a Thunder Element physique. Hehe, our Jiang Family is from the Demon Exorcist Race, of course with Thunder Element lineage, but Chen Tianlong, you..."

"Ah?" Chen Tianlong widened his eyes in disbelief. It couldn’t be such a coincidence, right? He also happened to have a Thunder Element physique. His master, Ye Feng, had told him that long ago. He was just musing earlier about where to find a Thunder Element girl willing to take a bath with him.

And now, here she was, a Thunder Element beauty who sounded very willing to contribute. Chen Tianlong started daydreaming again.

His good fortune was indeed not shallow. Just arriving in Yunfu, he had already captured a beauty’s heart.

"Chen Tianlong, what’s wrong with you?"

Jiang Yufan looked at Chen Tianlong’s expression and felt something was off. Why was he so shocked about her Thunder Element physique? Suddenly, Jiang Yufan thought of something and also widened her eyes, timidly asking, "Could it be that you..."

Before she could finish her question, Chen Tianlong started nodding. Both of them understood without words, and Jiang Yufan’s face flushed red on one side, realizing that her previous words implied she agreed to take a bath with Chen Tianlong.

"Cough cough... Yufan, since all the conditions are met, let’s set off tomorrow." Wan Qi glanced outside; it was already dusk. It was too late to go now, and although Qilin Mountain wasn’t far, it was more dangerous at night.

"Okay, Grandma." Jiang Yufan nodded in agreement.

But Chen Tianlong thought about it; an elderly lady, going through all this trouble with him, he felt somewhat apologetic and said, "Grandma, I’ll go by myself tomorrow. Don’t trouble you, dealing with a Qilin is still manageable for me."

"Alright then." Wan Qi thought it made sense. It’s just an animal, and Chen Tianlong was a skilled fighter. If the poison didn’t flare up, the Qilin shouldn’t pose a threat to him.

"No, Chen Tianlong, you can’t go alone. What if your Gu Poison acts up?" Jiang Yufan said worriedly, "How about this, I’ll go with you tomorrow. We can look out for each other."

"Well... but..."

"Oh, what’s the but, I’ll take care of myself. It’s just a beast after all. Don’t underestimate me, you know, I’m pretty good at running." Jiang Yufan smiled sweetly.

"Alright, alright, just let her go. She’s just a playful soul. If you don’t take her, she’ll probably sneak along on her own, which would be more dangerous." Wan Qi couldn’t bear it anymore, knowing Jiang Yufan’s nature all too well.

"..." Chen Tianlong was speechless, but since the elder insisted, he couldn’t refuse, so he agreed.

Capital City, inside the Chu Family Mansion.

A black BMW slowly drove into the courtyard, and four people stepped out of the car: Chu Jiangnan, Chu Jingyun, Wang Tao, and Xue Kong.

This time, it was the leaders of the Black Alliance who visited. Even if Elder Chu was proud, he couldn’t joke about his life. First, he was hit by the Heart-Eroding Gu from the Black Alliance’s Gang Leader, needing to take medicine annually. Second, Xue Kong was a Yellow Dao Seven Star expert, who could easily slaughter their whole family if displeased.

"Second Elder, you’ve been frightened this time, haven’t you? Come inside, I’ve already arranged the kitchen to prepare a feast. Let’s eat and talk." Master Chu hurriedly and respectfully invited.

"Alright." Xue Kong, tired from a day’s hassles, had lost his appetite with the Earth Dragon gone, and didn’t want to speak much.

Soon, they arrived in the great hall where the servants had prepared wine and dishes to welcome Xue Kong.

"Master Xue Kong, our Earth Dragon was destroyed this time. That Chen Tianlong is truly hateful. Given the chance, I’ll make sure he’s cut to pieces." Wang Tao couldn’t help but speak during the meal.

"Ah? Are you saying Chen Tianlong went to Yunfu?" Master Chu was surprised. He didn’t expect Chen Tianlong to be everywhere, even visiting Yunfu during the New Year and defeating both Xue Kong and others?

This was what shocked him the most. In front of him were two people: one was a Yellow Dao Three Star expert, and the other a Yellow Dao Seven Star expert. If Wang Tao was defeated, that was understandable, but Xue Kong? He was a Yellow Dao Seven Star expert; it would be laughable if he got defeated by Chen Tianlong.

"Yes, do you know Chen Tianlong?" Wang Tao didn’t realize Chen Tianlong’s presence, thinking he was part of the police.

"Yes, we not only know him but are also archenemies. He’s a significant foe for our Chu Family. This kid is a bit strange; his strength seems average, yet he fought off all our experts without leaving a trace."

Master Chu shook his head, a bit helpless. Initially, he was reluctant to admit it, but hearing that Earth Dragon housed numerous experts, including Yellow Dao Six Stars, now being so embarrassed, it was likely that Chen Tianlong could defeat a Yellow Dao Six Star expert, too.

"Wow, he’s that powerful? No wonder. Even our commander Hu Fei got injured by him. I was puzzled back then." The more Wang Tao thought about it, the more frustrated he became. But now, knowing Chen Tianlong’s strength, he felt lucky not to be defeated.

"Alright, don’t undermine yourself. Actually, that Chen Tianlong kid is practically a dead man now." Xue Kong sneered coldly.

"Ah? A dead man? What do you mean, Master Xue?" Wang Tao was puzzled.

"Do you remember when Chen Tianlong got hit by my dart?"

"Yes, I do. Why?"

"The dart was coated with Heart-Eroding Gu poison. It was a special poison dart prepared by the Gang Leader for me, meant to make life worse than death. Fortunately, Chen Tianlong became the lucky recipient." Xue Kong explained with a cold smile.

"Great!" Master Chu clapped happily, and Chu Jingyun was also overjoyed. The thorn in their side was finally removed; it was a cause for celebration. However, he suddenly remembered something and asked, "But Master Xue, doesn’t the Heart-Eroding Gu not cause death?"

"Hehe, cause no death? That’s because when you are hit, the Gang Leader immediately gave you medicine, and every year before that day, you must get the medicine, or within seven days, you’ll die from heartache."

Xue Kong revealed the truth. Originally, Master Chu thought he just needed to endure, and after the flare-up, he could last another year or so, but hearing Xue Kong’s explanation, he broke into a sweat.

In other words, he would always have to obey the Black Alliance, or one day, if they got angry and withheld the medicine, he would be waiting for death.

Thinking of this, Master Chu quickly and respectfully said, "Come, let me toast to you both. This matter is settled, and we will think of other ways to find new, profitable ventures to compensate for your sect’s economic losses."

Master Chu understood that the Earth Dragon, after all, was just a money-making place, and the best way to make the Black Alliance happy was, of course, to introduce them to more profitable methods.
