Chapter 603: Assassin

"Well, if you let her go now and take the initiative to surrender to the government, it can still count as turning yourself in." Lu Yang walked back into the room again and sincerely persuaded the murderer.

This was clearly the woman next door staying, and the assassin climbed through the window to assassinate the woman, but was bumped into by himself.

"You have to die too!"

The man in black holding the dagger saw Lu Yang returning, cold light flashed in his eyes, but he was pressed to the ground by Lu Yang.

"I guess you won't surrender either."

Lu Yang suppressed the man in black with one hand, his tone calm.

The man in black was in disbelief. He didn't even see Lu Yang's movements clearly before he was subdued.

"F-Foundation Establishment stage?!"

He, a dignified ninth-layer Qi Refining assassin, was instantly subdued. The other party could only be a great Foundation Establishment stage cultivator!

The black-clad assassin was desperate. Who was this uninvited guest? Was he a bodyguard hired by the target? How was he so familiar with this suicide set?

Since things had come to this, he could only commit suicide!

Lu Yang grabbed his head, broke off two front teeth. The front teeth contained fatal poison, and then picked up the rag on the ground and stuffed it into his mouth to prevent him from biting his tongue and committing suicide.

"You are poisoned. His dagger is poisoned. It's the Green Ghost Entangling Soul Poison. It will break out in three days. The Green Ghost will claim your life, and you will die. It's not a very rare poison. My detox pill can detoxify it."

And even if he saw it, it would be useless. His poison was rare in the world, and even he didn't have an antidote.

He pointed a few times on his body to block his meridians, making him unable to move.

The woman calmed down and looked at Lu Yang gratefully: "Thank you, benefactor. My name is..."

"The stepmother believes that the family business should be inherited by her son, so she has always made things difficult for me. Fortunately, I have resolved those difficulties one by one."

However, he hadn't noticed that he had applied chronic poison to the dagger. No one could see it when it didn't break out, but once it broke out, even the gods couldn't save him. The target had already been stabbed by himself and was not long for this world.

The woman took the detox pill woodenly. It was icy and cool, very comfortable, and her heart was much more settled.

Why was it this grandson saving the beauty again?

"Miss, what happened that you were being hunted?"

"I have shown extraordinary business acumen since I was a child. My father has had the idea of handing over all the family business to me to manage many times, but they have all been blocked by my stepmother."

These were all poisons left over from the Pill Cauldron Peak.

Lu Yang took a pill from his identity jade plate and handed it to the terrified woman.

The situation in the room was simple and clear, and one could see at a glance what had happened.

Meng Jingzhou entered the room, and his smile froze.

"Stop, don't say what your name is, where you are from, what your identity is, and why there is an assassin coming to kill you. I am just a guest next door, and I know nothing. I see you have cultivation, and the assassin's cultivation has been abolished by me. You can take him to report to the government yourself."

"Ah? Ah, thank you."

Lu Yang skillfully interrupted the woman's self-narration.

Lu Yang just wanted to stop her, but heard the woman introduce herself:

"My name is Fuling, and I come from Xuan City next door. My family runs a cloth business, and I came here to expand the family industry."

He had been walking in the rivers and lakes for many years, all relying on causing trouble. He saw at a glance that this was a trouble, and he didn't know how many things were involved behind it.

"Haha, Old Lu, I heard movement on your side, and I knew you had something going on here too!" Meng Jingzhou's hearty laughter came from behind Lu Yang.

"This assassin should have been sent by my stepmother. Thanks to the young master's help, Fuling escaped this disaster."

Lu Yang shook his head gently: "This assassin shouldn't have been sent by your stepmother."

Fuling was very surprised, and incomprehension flashed in her eyes.

"Young master, why do you say that?"

"Since you came here to expand the family industry, your stepmother should wait until the business route in this city is opened before killing you. Killing you so early is no different from throwing away the industry here."

Fuling thought about it seriously, and there was indeed such a possibility.

"Could it be because I went to the black market?"

"How to say?"

"Young master, you should not know that there is a black market not far from here. I went to the black market for a turn tonight, saw a twenty-year-old ganoderma looking good, so I bought it. Is it possible that I picked up a leak, and what I bought is not ganoderma, but something else?"

"Can you take it out and show me?"

With the grace of saving her life, Fuling believed that Lu Yang wouldn't harm anyone and took out the ganoderma bought from the black market.

The ganoderma was the size of a palm, presenting a dark red color, and there were circles of patterns on the umbrella cap.

"Miss, you guessed half right. This thing is ganoderma, but it's not ordinary ganoderma, but a three-hundred-year-old thunder-struck ganoderma. Because it suffered a great tribulation, its appearance is very different from a three-hundred-year-old ganoderma."

"It seems you have good luck."

Lu Yang, as a friend of the Little Medicine King, had learned a lot of knowledge about plants from the Little Medicine Kings.

"It's just that this is still not the reason why you were assassinated."

"Why is this again?" Fuling's eyes flashed with incomprehension.

"This assassin has poison hidden in his front teeth. He is clearly a professional assassin, not someone who sees wealth and has evil intentions. He climbed through the window to take your life."

Fuling thought about it and said again: "I have a childhood sweetheart. He is attached to me, and my childhood sweetheart is very excellent. There is a female disciple of the sect who likes my childhood sweetheart, but was rejected by my childhood sweetheart. The reason is that although the female disciple is very good, if he hadn't met me first, he might have liked her."

"It is possible that this female disciple of the sect sent an assassin to assassinate me."

Lu Yang pondered. This was possible, and he couldn't find any doubts for a while.

"Which sect is that female disciple you mentioned from?"

The assassin twisted on the ground. His mouth was stuffed with a rag by Lu Yang, and he couldn't say a word.

He listened to Fuling and Lu Yang's analysis for a long time, and finally spat out the rag.

"Well, can I say a word?"

The three looked down at the assassin together.

The assassin felt guilty being watched by the three, but still said: "Miss Fuling, right? Sorry, I seem to have recognized the wrong person. My target is in the room opposite. Her name is Kong Que."

Fuling: "..."

Lu Yang: "..."

Hearing the assassin say this, Meng Jingzhou seemed to have solved the mystery and showed a sudden realization: "So that's it."

Lu Yang was surprised: "What do you understand?"

"I encountered a robbery cultivator in my room. He hid very well, but was still discovered by me. After I subdued him, he confessed that he was preparing to steal a ganoderma."

At this time, Shi Chan also walked over: "Hmm, the poor monk still wanted to find the two senior brothers in the room. Two senior brothers, why are you here?"

"What's the matter?"

"It's like this, I met a woman living here in the corridor, named Kong Que. She said she was targeted by an assassin. Seeing that the poor monk has cultivation, she wanted to ask the poor monk to protect her. The poor monk wants to ask the two senior brothers what they think." ===== CHAPTER 604 =====
