Female martial arts fanatics only love to fight, while men fight for their lives.

Chapter 220 Yue Pengyu is poisoned

"If I wasn't from Hengjian Villa, and if you weren't the Duke of Zhenguo, maybe you and I would become good friends."

Yue Pengyu couldn't tell whether he was happy or sad. "It's not just Yue Zhanchi, right?"

Lou Xiao's silence was enough to answer everything.

"I only know that my family's business is big. My father said I have extraordinary talent, so he only let me practice martial arts and never get involved in family affairs."

Yue Pengyu was not trying to excuse himself, "I thought my father valued me and wanted me to be the future owner of Hengjian Villa, so I have been committed to developing and expanding Hengjian Villa."

To be respected in the martial arts world, we must gain a good reputation for Hengjian Villa and make Hengjian Villa the number one martial arts sect.

She has been working hard for this.

For this reason, she strives to be a respected leader in the martial arts world,

However, he did not expect that all the money spent by the family was earned from selling out the country.

It's really ridiculous.

"These are not your fault." Lou Xiao said sincerely, "You don't have to feel guilty for the mistakes they made."

"It's not guilt," it's that I lost my direction and finally saw the illusion in front of me.

Yue Pengyu's eyes were dark. All her insistence had become a joke. Now the chivalrous men in Hengjian Villa didn't say anything to her face for her sake.

Once the siege of Hengjian Villa is lifted, the entire martial arts world will know how hypocritical Hengjian Villa is.

Collaborating with the enemy and treason, privately opening mines, forging swords and selling them to Beimo,

The good reputation that Hengjian Villa has built up over the years will be wiped out in an instant.

Lou Xiao didn't know what Yue Pengyu should do now, so she had to pick up the sword. The two martial artists used the simplest competition to forget all their troubles.

There was no killing to the death, just the simplest fight, all as a way to vent.

However, when the two intersected again, Yue Pengyu suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest and his vision went dark.

But her body was already heading towards Lou Xiao's sword, unable to change direction, and she was about to be pierced through by Lou Xiao again.

This time Lou Xiao retracted the sword and stretched out his left hand to support her, who was shaky and obviously not well. "Yue Pengyu, why do you look so bad?"

"Nothing..." Yue Pengyu said nothing, and his eyes became darker, his legs became weak, and there was a constant buzzing in his ears.

The pain in my chest felt like being cut by a sharp knife and soon spread throughout my body. I let out a "wow" and spat out a mouthful of dark green liquid.

Then Yue Pengyu fell down, and even though Lou Xiao supported her, she couldn't stop falling.

"Yue Pengyu?! You are poisoned!!"

As soon as the black-green liquid came out, Lou Xiao immediately grabbed Yue Pengyu's pulse.

Her heart was beating erratically. Lou Xiao picked her up and said, "I'll take you to see Old Doctor Bian! Yue Pengyu! Do you remember if you came into contact with any suspicious people? Think about it quickly!"

At first he was confused, then he seemed to have figured something out. Yue Pengyu pulled her sleeve, endured the severe pain all over his body and said with difficulty,

"Tianci... go quickly - Tianci..."

She remembered!

Before coming, she had a drink with other sisters and brothers.

At that time, another servant had been sent by his father Yue Kun to call Yue Tianci, who had just woken up, to attend the banquet.

If Yue Tianci, who had just woken up, arrived at the banquet... he would definitely be forced by his father to drink, and there was a high possibility that the wine was poisoned.

She was going to save her relatives when Yue Tianci just woke up from danger and knew nothing about anything. Was he going to die inexplicably?

"Hurry... take me to the banquet," Yue Pengyu grabbed Lou Xiao with all his strength, "He is innocent... innocent."

Lou Xiao called Er Liu to invite Doctor Bian, and informed Xiao Zhengdu of the current emergency. She followed Yue Pengyu's instructions and helped her go to the banquet.

During the journey, Yue Pengyu vomited several times. Lou Xiao also patted her chest and asked her to try to expel everything in her stomach, perhaps she could have a chance of survival.

As we got closer to the main courtyard, we didn't see any guards.

Xiao Zhengdu had his men surround Hengjian Villa, so it was normal for the guards and servants inside to panic.

But after all, it is impossible to have a banquet and not have anyone to serve. In the silence, there is a kind of silent deathly atmosphere.

Yue Pengyu recalled that before she came out just now, there were many trembling servants, and some of them looked like they hoped that she could go and ask the Duke of Zhenguo to ease the current situation at Hengjian Villa.

Now there is no one left.

Yue Pengyu, who was supported by Lou Xiao, reluctantly let go of her hand and staggered towards the wide-open gate.

Lou Xiao looked back at somewhere in the darkness, then followed.

But the closer she got, the more she realized something was wrong. It was not until she stepped onto the stairs that she saw Yue Pengyu supporting himself with one hand on the pillar, not daring to step near the purple-red round table.

Every seat was occupied, but there was no sound.

There was only one person sitting at the main seat, and next to him stood an old cook, wearing a spotless white apron, who was bending over and serving food to the person in the main seat.

Hearing the sound, he and the host looked up at Lou Xiao and Yue Pengyu.

“You’re here—”

Yue Pengyu dragged her heavy steps and slowly moved closer. When she arrived in front of him and confirmed that the person sitting there was dead, she looked at the person in the main seat with red eyes.

"What did you do——"

She suddenly remembered something and looked around, "Where's Tianci?!"

The person sitting at the main seat did not speak, but the old cook at the side spoke up.

"Replying to Miss Ten, he is not here."

Yue Pengyu looked at him suddenly and asked, "Uncle Mo! I have treated you well in Hengjian Villa——"

How could you watch her family members die on the spot? !

The old cook felt no guilt, and answered very sincerely, "Because they deserved it."

Lou Xiao glanced around and saw that there was indeed no way to save the situation.

He only asked the person in the main seat, "What kind of poison did you use? Bring me the antidote."

"There is no antidote. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Lord Zhenguo." Yue Mingxuan's voice was calm, with a bit of long-lost gentleness, unlike his usual sharpness.

"I have been waiting for this day for a long time. It is not a pity for them to die—"

But Yue Pengyu still asked, "Why?"

Yue Mingxuan was about to speak when he saw Yue Tianci standing at the door, his face pale with disbelief.

Youshan King Xiao Zhengdu raised his hand to let the people around him leave, and walked in with big strides.

The old doctor Bian who was following him pushed his granddaughter behind him to prevent her from seeing such a tragic scene.

"He died cleanly." Xiao Zhengdu said expressionlessly, with his hands behind his back.

He was flipping through the account book page by page, and was filled with rage.

He was unable to punish the Yue family members personally, and they died so easily at the banquet.

He was really depressed.

"Why, you are going to tell me that everything is their fault and you are totally unaware of it?"

His voice was full of sarcasm, and he even sneered, "Your Yue family is a family of one generation."
