228: Chapter 228 Treatment!

Xu Qingqing’s face turned a sudden shade of crimson.

However, since Zhou Yu had already seen her once before when treating her illness, Xu Qingqing didn’t feel overly embarrassed this time.

Quickly, Xu Qingqing took off her upper garment.

The moment she took off her top, Zhou Yu saw a faint mark just below Xu Qingqing’s chest, which was impossible for her to see due to the large size of her bust, looking downwards.

She couldn’t discover it herself, and it was even less likely for others to notice.

Zhou Yu’s gaze became intense as he said,

“Qingqing, bear with it for a moment.”

After speaking, he reached out and pressed his hand directly onto the spot.

In an instant, the Nether Fire True Qi surged, and from the palm of Zhou Yu’s hand, a strand of dark Qi seeped out between his fingers.

Witnessing those strands of dark Qi, Xu Qingqing’s eyes filled with fear; she couldn’t believe that such things were coming out of her own body.

Zhou Yu, too, flashed a look of astonishment in his eyes.

The evil Qi inside Xu Qingqing was far from being as simple as it appeared on the surface.

In the past, he had seen others affected by evil Qi, such as Lv Fang’s son Lv Kai, Hou Baoguo, and others.

But compared to the evil Qi inside Xu Qingqing, their cases were utterly insignificant.

However, speaking of which, the methods used to infuse this evil Qi seemed somewhat similar.

Could it possibly be the work of the same person?

A gleam of sharpness flickered in Zhou Yu’s eyes.

The process of expelling the evil for Xu Qingqing was quick, lasting less than three minutes.

After he was done, Zhou Yu withdrew his hand and said,

“It’s done.”

“Put on your clothes.”

Xu Qingqing hurriedly dressed herself.

At this moment, Xu Zongnian and others also walked in.

“Mr.

Zhou, my daughter, how is she?” Xu Zongnian asked anxiously.

Zhou Yu began to speak,

“There’s no doubt that she has been possessed by evil Qi.”

“Moreover, the evil Qi in Qingqing is no ordinary Qi; it will continuously devour the vitality of those close to her.

The longer the contact, the more severe the vitality will be consumed.”

“In at most half a month, when the evil Qi reaches saturation, Qingqing’s body will essentially contain a ticking time bomb.”

“Once this bomb explodes, no one below the Innate Realm can survive.”

Hisss—

Xu Zongnian took a sharp breath, his face instantly turning deathly pale.

If it weren’t for Zhou Yu’s timely discovery, their Xu Family might have been doomed.

“Could it really be Hou Junshan?”

“Who is Hou Junshan?”

Zhou Yu inquired.

Xu Zongnian quickly responded,

“Hou Junshan is Qingqing’s uncle by marriage.”

“He suddenly visited our home yesterday, bringing along a Divine Doctor, claiming to examine Qingqing to see if the Fire Poison she had suffered from before was truly cured.”

“I was there the whole time; the man simply checked and then said that she was indeed cured.”

“Logically speaking, if he were to employ any methods, they shouldn’t have been able to deceive me.

Xu Zongnian, after all, was a peak expert in the Postnatal realm of Qi Refinement, how could he be fooled before his very eyes.

Xu Qingqing bit her lip tightly.

“My uncle has always been good to me from a young age; I don’t believe he would do this.”

Xu Zongnian hastily said,

“Mr.

Zhou, if you see Hou Junshan in person, is there a way to confirm whether it was his doing or not?”

Zhou Yu nodded,

“I can.”

Xu Zongnian immediately gave a respectful bow,

“Mr.

Zhou, I beseech you to help me confirm this.

My Xu Family will be extremely grateful.”

Zhou Yu glanced at Xu Qingqing.

Although she seemed disinclined to believe it, she also showed a pleading look.

Zhou Yu nodded, “I can do it.”

Xu Zongnian sighed in relief and quickly thanked him.

“Mr.

Zhou, you’ve worked hard today.

Let’s go have a meal first; in a day or two, I’ll invite Hou Junshan over to our house, and then I’ll ask you to help identify whether it was indeed him.”

“Alright.”

The group arrived at the private dining room and began their meal.

During the meal, Xu Zongnian made several seemingly casual inquiries about the Zhao Family’s takeover of the Fang Family, making Zhou Yu realize what was going on.

No wonder Xu Zongnian suddenly invited him to dinner—it seems he was covetous.

But Zhou Yu didn’t mind.

His ultimate goal was to find more protectors for the Lin Corporation.

As long as the Xu Family didn’t oppose the Lin Corporation, he was happy to lend them a hand.

After all, having one more friend is always better than having one more enemy.

The meal was quite enjoyable, except for Lin Wanhao.

At first, when Lin Wanhao saw Xu Zongnian personally welcoming him at the hotel, he felt greatly honored.

Yet, throughout the meal, Xu Zongnian seemed almost willing to sit in Zhou Yu’s lap, scarcely conversing with him at all.

It was then Lin Wanhao realized that Xu Zongnian’s intent was solely to invite Zhou Yu for the meal, and that he was likely invited just in case Zhou Yu wouldn’t come otherwise.

After coming to this realization, Lin Wanhao couldn’t help but smile wryly to himself.

However, he found himself admiring Zhou Yu even more.

After the meal, everyone stood up, preparing to leave.

At that moment, Xu Qingqing suddenly approached Zhou Yu.

She gently tugged at the corner of Zhou Yu’s clothing.

Zhou Yu turned around and saw Xu Qingqing hesitating to speak, as if she had something on her mind.

“What’s the matter?”

Xu Qingqing first glanced at her father, then said in a low voice,

“Zhou Yu, could you…

take a walk with me?”

Zhou Yu was taken aback, but then nodded,

“I can do that.”

Xu Qingqing showed a grateful face, then informed her father.

Xu Zongnian laughed heartily.

“Very well, Mr.

Zhou, I entrust my daughter to you.”

“If it gets late, no need to send her back home.”

“…”

Zhou Yu was speechless.

But Lin Wanhao felt an urgency.

What was Xu Zongnian implying?

Was he trying to poach his future son-in-law?

Not wanting to directly confront Xu Zongnian due to his status, Lin Wanhao tried to hint at Zhou Yu instead,

“Zhou Yu, you’ve been outside for a while, and Luoluo has hardly smiled at all.

Try to come back earlier tonight to keep her company.”

Zhou Yu smiled wryly,

“Understood, Uncle Lin.”

After seeing the two off, Zhou Yu and Xu Qingqing strolled along the streets.

“Qingqing, you have something on your mind, don’t you?”
