Chapter 602: Chapter 602: Unable to Comply

Chen Xuan had thought he understood this woman he worked with well enough, but it was only at this moment that he realized he knew absolutely nothing about her except for her name and job!

However, right now, Chen Xuan didn’t have the time to think about these things.

Even with the protection of the White Jade Anklet, the poison from the Life-Death Pill was simply too potent, and Song Qiuhuan’s condition was still far from optimistic.

Without further delay, Chen Xuan immediately set up a fire in the courtyard and began to prepare the Half-Step Revival Pill.

All the herbs were ready, and Chen Xuan took out the Revival Grass from the box.

"It all depends on you now!"

As he spoke, Chen Xuan was about to throw the Revival Grass into the Pill Furnace.

But just at that moment.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

A gust of strong wind blew past, and over a dozen soldiers clad in black leaped over the villa’s high walls, appearing directly in the courtyard.

Leading them was a towering and robust man.

Chen Xuan recognized the man at a glance and frowned.

Dong Family, Pojun!

Upon seeing Chen Xuan, Pojun’s face revealed a playful smile, "We meet again, Nanjiang Earl!"

Chen Xuan’s gaze was icy.

The last time he had encountered this Pojun was at the construction site in Jinxiu City.

That night, Pojun had come to snatch the Jade Corpse Ginseng, leaving Chen Xuan no choice but to relinquish it and fake Tang Ying’s death to narrowly escape disaster.

Unexpectedly, today, the man had reappeared before him.

Having dealt with them a few times, Chen Xuan had come to understand the methods of the subordinates of the Eastern King somewhat.

Whether it was Qisha or Pojun, these men were like venomous snakes, filled with danger, and their visits never boded well.

If possible, Chen Xuan truly did not wish to have any dealings with these people.

Unfortunately, it seemed he might not be able to avoid them now.

"What do you want?" asked Chen Xuan, not interested in wasting words, his voice cold.

With a grin, Pojun replied, "Nothing much. I just heard that the Nanjiang Earl happens to have something our Dong Family desires, so I thought I’d come to borrow it."

As he spoke, Pojun’s gaze drifted meaningfully towards the Revival Grass in Chen Xuan’s hand.

Chen Xuan immediately understood and snorted coldly, "Your Dong Family is really something. Not satisfied with taking my Jade Corpse Ginseng last time, now you’ve set your sights on my Revival Grass. It seems your Dong Family is quite in need!"

Pojun laughed heartily, "Can’t help it. Who made the Nanjiang Earl so fated with our Dong Family? Hahaha..."

Chen Xuan couldn’t find it amusing and, changing his tone, said with an underlying message, "What, even the Jade Corpse Ginseng last time didn’t work, and you need this Revival Grass for another try? It looks like your Eastern King is quite seriously ill..."

More than just seriously ill.

Chen Xuan had already guessed that the Eastern King was probably long dead, but the Dong Family, to maintain their deterrence, had not announced this news.

Furthermore, it seemed the Dong Family was secretly plotting something, attempting to use special means to resurrect the Eastern King from death.

The Jade Corpse Ginseng they took earlier could resurrect the dead.

This Revival Grass, similarly, had the power to retrieve the soul and revive the spirit.

These successive actions of the Dong Family were now blatantly clear in Chen Xuan’s eyes!

Hearing Chen Xuan’s insinuating words, Pojun’s expression instantly turned grim.

"Nanjiang Earl, watch your words. The condition of our Emperor is not something you can discuss lightly!"

There was a threatening tone in Pojun’s words.

Chen Xuan smiled faintly, "Rest assured, I have no interest in your Eastern King’s condition. However, it would be best if you didn’t disturb my life time and again. Simply put, I want nothing to do with you!"

Pojun Hall sneered coldly, "Nanjing Earl, rest assured, Pojun Hall is also one to follow the rules. As long as you hand over the item to us, we will immediately leave this place without violating even a strand of your hair!"

Chen Xuan’s expression was frosty, "I’m sorry, but the item you want this time is something I am afraid I cannot comply with!"

Pojun’s eyes suddenly narrowed, "Nanjing Earl, I advise you to think carefully before you speak..."

Chen Xuan’s gaze also turned icy, "I said, I cannot comply!"

Four words represented Chen Xuan’s attitude, but they completely offended Pojun’s bottom line.

"If that’s the case, then don’t blame me!"

As he spoke, Pojun’s feet moved abruptly, and a punch struck towards Chen Xuan.

The path of the fistwind stirred up such a strong current in the air that even the leaves were shredded!

True to being one of the Eastern King’s top three warriors, Pojun’s strength was truly fearsome!

However, just as Chen Xuan was about to meet the challenge, a figure whose origin was unknown suddenly stood in front of Chen Xuan.

Without any fancy movements, just one punch was thrown out.

Boom!

The fists collided, setting off a huge wave of energy that knocked down all the nearby grass and trees!

Chen Xuan was shocked, knowing that he would not dare to casually receive such a punch from Pojun.

The unexpected guest before him dared to confront in such a domineering manner, displaying strength that was simply extraordinary!

Not only that, but after this exchange of punches, Pojun was forced to retreat more than a dozen steps, whereas the unexpected guest stood firmly in place, without moving an inch!

The relative strength of the two was immediately apparent!

"You..."

Seeing the newcomer, Pojun’s face revealed shock and even a hint of fear, as if he had seen a ghost!

"Scram!"

The newcomer did not utter another word, simply spitting out a single command.

And unexpectedly, Pojun, who always held himself above others with the Dong Family backing him, heard the command and, as if granted amnesty, did not hesitate any further, leading his men to jump over the wall and leave!

From the arrival of the newcomer to the escape of Pojun and his men, it all happened in no more than five seconds.

This scene truly shook Chen Xuan.

Who exactly was this person before him, to scare Pojun, who had both strength and influence, out of his wits?!

At this moment, the figure in front finally turned around.

Chen Xuan could now clearly see the person’s appearance.

This was a man in his thirties, handsome and stern-faced, with an indescribably proud look in his eyes.

Such incredible strength from someone so young was indeed surprising.

But what surprised Chen Xuan even more was that this proud man was wearing an army green trench coat.

He was actually a member of the War Division!

There was such a master within the War Division?!

Before Chen Xuan could understand all this, the man surveyed Chen Xuan up and down and then suddenly asked, "Are you Chen Xuan?"

Chen Xuan froze, not expecting the other party to know him.

"Yes, I am. May I ask who you..."

Before Chen Xuan could finish, the man before him shook his head and said with a hint of disappointment, "You are not worthy of my sister!"

Chen Xuan: "..."
