Chapter 461: Chapter 461 You Don’t Need to Live Anymore!

Hearing Pojun’s words, Chen Xuan’s brows furrowed slightly.

"Did Qisha not convey my message, or were my words last time not clear enough?"

"I’ve already said that I have no interest in this so-called Nanjiang Earl title!"

Pojun snorted coldly, "Bestowing you the title of Nanjiang Earl is the wish of our King Shao, not something you can refuse just because you’re not interested!"

"Enough, I’m not here today to waste words with the Nanjiang Earl."

With that, Pojun’s gaze fell on Tang Ying, or more precisely, on the Jade Corpse Ginseng in her hand.

"Jade Corpse Ginseng, it seems today’s trip was not in vain after all!"

Tang Ying’s complexion changed drastically, "You... what do you want to do!"

Pojun let out a cold laugh, "Such a treasure in the hands of you ants is simply a waste of heaven’s gifts. Hand it over to me now!"

Tang Ying felt despair, she had already recognized the identities of these people before her, they were likely the Dong Family’s personal guards!

The Dong Family!

For Tang Ying, this was an entity beyond her reach.

Now that they had set their sights on the Jade Corpse Ginseng, it was as if she were being pushed onto a path of no return!

Despite knowing she stood no chance against these people, Tang Ying still stubbornly said, "This... this is the medicine that will save my father’s life, I will absolutely not hand it over to you!"

Chen Xuan’s brows furrowed, "Miss Tang, I advise you to hand over that thing sooner rather than later, to avoid trouble for yourself!"

Tang Ying was shocked, she hadn’t expected that even this man who had once saved her life would choose to stand on the side of the Dong Family.

Of course, with the influence of the Dong Family, there were few in the world who would not fear them, his recognition of the situation was only to be expected.

Yet, Tang Ying still couldn’t help feeling disappointed.

After all, the heroism he had shown in the tomb chamber had stunned her, and now he still had to bow to the Dong Family. Tang Ying felt helpless, realizing she had overestimated him before.

Tang Ying remained resolute, "You need not persuade me, I won’t hand it over!"

Pojun snorted, "You stubborn girl, it seems you are seeking death!"

Chen Xuan also sighed helplessly, "Ignorant of the enormity of the universe! You can’t even see the situation clearly, such a fool doesn’t need to live!"

Having said that, Chen Xuan suddenly made his move, a streak of cold light piercing straight through Tang Ying’s chest.

He had personally killed Tang Ying!

Tang Ying collapsed in an instant, utterly shocked to her very last moment.

She could never have dreamed that the man who had once saved her life, would turn around and send her to her death in the blink of an eye!

Not just Tang Ying, even Pojun was surprised by the scene that unfolded before him.

A subordinate picked up the Jade Corpse Ginseng and checked Tang Ying’s breath, then nodded at Pojun.

Pojun let out a cold laugh, "I’ve long heard of Chen Fengchuo’s vast abilities and decisive killings. Today I’ve witnessed it for myself!"

"Chen Fengchuo takes his leave, we shall meet again!"

With that, Pojun made a hand gesture, and everyone withdrew from the pit, taking a plane to leave directly.

Only after confirming that Pojun and his men had all left did Chen Xuan hurry to Tang Ying’s side.

After pressing a few points on the chest acupuncture meridian, Tang Ying, who had been declared dead, miraculously came back to life.

Tang Ying opened her eyes to see Chen Xuan and was immediately filled with horror. "You... what did you just?!"

While tending to Tang Ying’s wounds, Chen Xuan inquired, "Do you have any idea who those people were just now?"

"If I’m not mistaken, they should be from the Dong Family."

"Then what do you think they want with the Jade Corpse Ginseng for?"

After pondering for a moment, Tang Ying responded, "There have been rumors before that the Eastern King had long passed away. Those were the Dong Family’s personal guards. They’re seizing the Jade Corpse Ginseng probably to use it on the Eastern King, to bring him back from the..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Tang Ying was struck as if by a bolt of lightning and instantly realized the implication.

The death of the Eastern King was only a rumor, and no one could truly confirm this news.

Yet now, the Dong Family’s people were snatching away Jade Corpse Ginseng, known for its life-restoring properties, wasn’t this indirectly confirming the Eastern King’s death?

Even if it couldn’t directly prove the death of the Eastern King, it at least indicated that the Eastern King’s current situation was very grim!

If such news reached the Northern Family or other interested parties from the other two families, it would be extremely detrimental to the Dong Family!

Under these circumstances, how could King Shao from earlier possibly have allowed Tang Ying to leave this place alive!

It was precisely for this reason that Chen Xuan had made a move in advance, feigning the killing of Tang Ying, which ultimately helped her escape this calamity!

Tang Ying was quick to understand Chen Xuan’s painstaking efforts and immediately knelt down.

"Thank you, Nanjiang Earl, for saving my life!"

Chen Xuan kept a calm expression, "I have never accepted any form of conferment as the Nanjiang Earl, just call me Chen Xuan."

"Moreover, I hope you will consider things more carefully in the future; with your strength, you are simply no match for King Shao and his men. If you had really died, how would you keep the Jade Corpse Ginseng safe? And how would you save your father?"

Tang Ying nodded, "You’re right in your reproach. I won’t be so reckless again. It’s just... my father, he... "

Originally, the Jade Corpse Ginseng was her only hope to save her father.

Now that the Jade Corpse Ginseng has fallen into the hands of the Dong Family, isn’t her father left with no choice but to wait for death!

With this thought, Tang Ying felt despair, and tears uncontrollably streamed down her face.

Chen Xuan did not intend to meddle any further, but seeing Tang Ying having struggled for years to acquire the Jade Corpse Ginseng only for it to be taken by the Dong Family moved him with compassion at her current pitiable state.

He sighed, and finally said, "Actually, to cure an illness, Jade Corpse Ginseng is not the only option! I’m quite proficient in medicine; perhaps, I can give it a try!"

Tang Ying suddenly lifted her head, her tear-streaked face filled with anticipation.

"Are you... are you serious? Do you really have a way to save my father?"

"I can only say I’ll try. Whether it’s feasible or not will have to be determined after a thorough examination."

Such a response already sent Tang Ying into a frenzy of joy.

For she had long heard that this Nanjiang Earl, known as Chen Fengchuo, was an extraordinary presence on par with Sleeping Dragon Liu Mingkong, with vast supernatural abilities and heaven-reaching skills!

For him to agree to try meant that the chances of saving her father were significant!

"Then may I know when Mr. Chen would be available to accompany me to Jinmen?"

Chen Xuan glanced at Tang Ying’s chest wound, "Your injury is not suitable for treatment right now, and I also have some matters to attend to."

"How about this: you rest up in Huai City for three days, and then we’ll head to Jinmen together. Does that sound good to you?"

Tang Ying nodded, "Good, then I’m in Mr. Chen’s debt! I will come to fetch you in three days!"

Afterward, Chen Xuan gave Tang Ying some fast-acting trauma medicine, then left immediately.
