Chapter 571: This Is What They Owe Me

"Is this medicinal formula something you developed? So, are you also a member of the Feng Family?"

What is going on with the Feng Family? Feng Moli wants the Feng Family destroyed, and this one right here also wants not a single member of the Feng Family left alive; can't their family produce someone normal?

It is truly not easy for a family like this to have survived until now.

"No, Lord Shen, do not misunderstand. I am merely a pharmacist hired by the Feng Family. If I were a member of the Feng Family, how could I have ended up in such a state!"

With a burning gaze, as if recalling the past, a look of regret flickered across the old man's face. He was not a member of the Feng Family, yet he had to participate in the Feng Family's secrets; wasn't this just asking for death?

One misstep leads to eternal regret; looking back, all is in vain. If only I had known... forget it, money can't buy foresight!

"My name is Xue Muchen. Lord Shen should find this name very unfamiliar, but thirty years ago, many people should have heard of it."

"Back then, I shouldn't have been so foolish as to trust the Feng Family's words and come here. It is laughable that I thought the Feng Family was truly a prestigious clan of medicine and martial arts, not knowing they were merely famous in name only—a bunch of hypocrites!"

"Medicine King Xue Muchen, so it is you!" A disgraced disciple of Medicine King Valley, expelled back then for having a crooked heart.

But because his natural talent was too high, even while bearing the title of a disgraced disciple of Medicine King Valley, he still flourished in the pugilistic world.

In the end, he even self-proclaimed himself the Medicine King. Doing this was undoubtedly a slap in the face to Medicine King Valley. One must know that only the head of Medicine King Valley of each generation is qualified to inherit the title of Medicine King and walk the pugilistic world.

Yet even so, Medicine King Valley did not respond to this. For a time, there were actually two Medicine Kings in the pugilistic world simultaneously.

One was the head of Medicine King Valley, and the other was the disgraced disciple of Medicine King Valley.

This matter both demonstrated the sufficient magnanimity of the Medicine King Valley head at the time and showed that Xue Muchen's medical techniques had indeed reached the pinnacle.

Perhaps even the head of Medicine King Valley admitted that he might not be his opponent in this regard. It is no wonder the formula for the Living Dead came from his hands.

"So Lord Shen has heard of my name; I am truly ashamed!"

"Then, did you have a falling out with the Feng Family in the end?"

"When the birds are gone, the good bow is put away; when the rabbits are dead, the hounds are cooked—it has been this way since ancient times!"

With a faint smile, Xue Muchen said slowly, "How could the Feng Family allow such a formula to remain in the hands of an outsider? Therefore, I had to die!"

"When I obtained such a formula and began to study it, I knew there would be such a day. But such a formula is too attractive; who wouldn't want to study it, who wouldn't want to become world-renowned because of it!"

"Fortunately, I knew the Feng Family well enough and knew they would definitely make a move in the end, which is why I secretly dosed myself as well!"

"The Feng Family really does things with perfect precision, so that was when you became a Living Dead?" Looking at him like this, one can tell Xue Muchen is another person who can become so obsessed with research that he cannot extricate himself.

Such people are extremely paranoid; when they encounter a strange medicinal formula they are interested in, they will inevitably feel an unbearable itch. Even knowing the Feng Family would not spare him afterward, he still could not resist studying it.

All in all, this was his own doing. However, he had long known the outcome, so there was no need for such great hatred, right?

"Correct, that was when I became a Living Dead. No matter what, the Feng Family is a clan that uses medicine; if I hadn't truly died, how could I have deceived them?"

"Moreover, in their eyes, a Living Dead has no emotions, no reason, and is just a qualified tool and weapon. They felt that with my pride, it would be impossible for me to turn myself into a Living Dead."

"But they forgot, I am Xue Muchen, the Xue Muchen who can turn the impossible into the possible!"

At this moment, Xue Muchen was indescribably confident, and his eyes held even more disdain for the Feng Family.

When it comes to the art of using medicine, Xue Muchen considers himself, if not the best, then certainly among the few who can compare. This is his pride; the Feng Family isn't even fit to carry his shoes.

Perhaps in his view, if not for the many formulas they had plundered, how could the Feng Family have its current status, and why would it have attracted him here?

With such a personality that looks down on others, it is thanks to his contributions that he wasn't beaten to death by the Feng Family members. Otherwise, his ashes would have been scattered to the winds.

"I have studied such medicine for many years, so naturally, I have ways to preserve my will. It's just that I didn't tell the Feng Family about these. Living under someone else's roof, one must always keep an ace up their sleeve!"

"So I was able to live as a Living Dead; I predicted the Feng Family would give me a grand funeral—they are always so hypocritical."

"I guessed right; the Feng Family members are just that hypocritical. It's just that the side effects of this medicine were a bit large, and I slept for two years before waking up and crawling out of the grave."

"But what I didn't expect was that by the time I crawled out, things had already changed!"

"Does Lord Shen know what I saw?"

With a cold smile, Xue Muchen's gaze became icy, and killing intent radiated from his body.

"I saw my wife, children, and grandchildren all die miserably on the streets, and my granddaughter sold to a Brothel and bullied to death. Two years, in only two years, all my relatives were gone!"

"All of this was done secretly by the Feng Family members. Although it was only done by ordinary Feng Family members, I don't believe the higher-ups of the Feng Family didn't know, yet they turned a blind eye to it."

"I made so many contributions to the Feng Family, and this is how they treated me. Do you know how much I hated them at the time? I wanted to uproot the Feng Family right then and there!"

"Understood!" Once Xue Muchen said this, Shen Yu understood completely.

Regarding Xue Muchen's personality, to put it bluntly, it was arrogant and conceited. Even now, he mentions the Feng Family with a look of disdain.

It is estimated that when he was in the Feng Family, he looked down on all sorts of pharmacists and even the Feng Family members themselves; that arrogant temperament likely offended countless people.

When he was in his prime, naturally no one dared to provoke him, and everyone would fawn over him.

But later, when he died, the humiliation the Feng Family members had suffered before would naturally be returned a hundredfold upon his family.

In the end, this was still self-inflicted. Once Xue Muchen died, the Feng Family members began their liquidation.

At first, the Feng Family naturally had to put on a show, letting everyone know that their Feng Family would never treat anyone unfairly, giving Xue Muchen a grand funeral.

After the limelight passed and no one was paying attention, some people began to have their own little schemes.

The higher-ups of the Feng Family naturally wouldn't do such low-class things; Xue Muchen was dead, so he was dead, and there was no need to take it out on his family, but the lower-level Feng Family members didn't think so.

It's just that what the Feng Family did was indeed too excessive; after all, the man had made contributions. The ordinary clansmen might not know, but didn't the Feng Family's higher-ups know?

It was obvious they were playing dumb. This guy probably didn't give the Feng Family's higher-ups much face either; no wonder they retaliated afterward.

"I knew they were ruthless, but I didn't expect them to be this ruthless!"

"They killed me in the end, and I didn't resent them. Because I knew that no matter who it was, they would do the same; the formula for the Living Dead must be kept in one's own hands and not known to outsiders—this is human nature."

"But they shouldn't have been so ruthless, so extreme! From that day on, I made up my mind to take revenge on the Feng Family. I want them to pay the price!"

"But I am only a physician; even after becoming an undying person, I couldn't kill many Feng Family members. Afterward, there was a possibility they would discover me."

"Therefore, I started with the weakest. And I knew there was one person in the Feng Family most suitable. A behemoth like the Feng Family can only be broken from within!"

"So you chose Feng Moli?"

"Correct, it is precisely the Feng Family's Second Master, Feng Moli!"

With a faint smile, a look of pride appeared on Xue Muchen's face. Feng Moli was his proudest masterpiece. If not for him, how could he have everything he has now.

"I have met this Feng Family Second Master; I know how he is treated in the Feng Family. I don't believe he has no hatred in his heart!"

"As long as such a person is guided slightly, they can be made into a blade in my hand. By then, even if I cannot destroy the Feng Family, I will definitely be able to teach them a profound lesson."

"But in fact, Feng Moli was luckier than I imagined. Do you know, Lord Shen, when I was tailing him, I inadvertently sensed that he seemed to have encountered a treasure."

"It is just that he has never been able to open this place, and he did not know that a pair of eyes had been watching him from behind all along."

"Therefore, this fortuitous encounter that originally belonged to Feng Moli was obtained by me, and I was able to ascend to the heavens in a single step because of it; as for Feng Moli, he became my Chess Piece!"

"After obtaining the inheritance, I thought of using the blood of the Feng Family to activate the Great Array. This is the end they deserve, and it is also what they owe me!"
