Chapter 23 Detoxification (2)
The boy was over 1.9 meters tall, with a slender build and short black hair that stood up like steel needles. He was not handsome, and the muscles on his face looked stiff and unattractive.
"Bang bang bang!"
Meng Shenji couldn't help but tap the table, emphasizing, "Yu Tianheng, what do you think this place is? This is the Education Commission office. Who gave you permission to run wild here?"
"I'm sorry, Your Honor, Tianheng was offended. However, I heard that someone dared to spread rumors about Yanyan. If I could tolerate it, I wouldn't be a man!"
Yu Tianheng said firmly, showing no fear even when he saw Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo.
Because he knew that such important figures wouldn't stoop to his level, and the person spreading the rumors certainly wasn't one of those important figures.
Meng Shenji immediately felt a terrible headache. This Yu Tianheng had a high reputation in the Tiandou Royal Academy and came from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. He was the grandson of Yu Yuanzhen, and his status was not comparable to that of ordinary people. He really didn't dare to do anything to Yu Tianheng.
Yu Tianheng barged into the office, his eyes fixed on Chen Feng. He guessed that the rumors were most likely spread by this kid!
"A real man should take responsibility for his actions. Who spread these rumors? Aren't you afraid to stand up?"
Although Yu Tianheng was asking questions, his eyes remained fixed on Chen Feng, as if he wanted to tear him apart.
"rumor?"
Chen Feng suddenly laughed. He slowly stood up from his chair, a sharp aura gradually rising with his ascent. "What makes you so sure what I said is a rumor? Do you even know anything about poison? What right do you have to deny it!"
Yu Tianheng was immediately stumped. He really didn't know anything about poisons. He had only heard rumors about Dugu Yan, who was his close girlfriend.
In Yu Tianheng's heart, Dugu Yan was his exclusive possession, and he would not allow anyone to slander her, which was why he stormed into the Education Commission office in such a fit of anger.
Chen Feng coldly rebuked, "You know nothing. Just because you have a good relationship with Dugu Yan, you barged in like you were here to interrogate someone. Is this the kind of education the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family provides?"
"Tell me, if Dugu Yan truly possesses a deadly poison, and only I can cure it, what would you do? Would you simply drive me away with this attitude? Or would you beat me up to vent your anger?"
"Let me tell you, if Dugu Yan succumbs to the poison and becomes a corpse, you will be indirectly responsible for her death! Because she had a chance to live, which you squandered!"
Chen Feng's series of questions immediately stunned Yu Tianheng.
His face darkened, his hands clenched and unclenched repeatedly, and his chest heaved violently, clearly trying to suppress his anger.
For someone with his straightforward temper, this is not an easy thing to accept.
But Chen Feng didn't care about any of that. He wasn't here to see him in the first place. He just had to come in looking for trouble. What kind of jerk is that?
You might as well call yourself the Cheap Douluo...
Chen Feng crossed his arms, sat down again, and said coldly, "If Dugu Yan is here, let her in. I'll wait for her for ten minutes. If I don't see her, I'll leave immediately."
After saying that, he closed his eyes, looking like he didn't want to talk to anyone.
After hesitating for a while, Yu Tianheng finally didn't dare to lose his temper any longer and turned to leave the Education Commission office.
Meng Shenji's voice came at just the right moment to remind him: "Remember to fix the door!"
"oh……"
Yu Tianheng's simple, honest voice answered from outside the door.
A dozen seconds later, a faint fragrance wafted in, and a purple-haired girl walked in.
It was indeed Dugu Yan; clearly, she had been outside the door the whole time.
Dugu Yan was tall and slender, with green-painted nails, and most notably, her green eyes possessed an eerie charm.
However, her expression was very unhappy, which is understandable; anyone would be upset to hear that they have been poisoned.
Chen Feng looked up at her and asked, "Where's your grandfather?"
Dugu Yan sneered, "I knew you had ulterior motives. You want to ask my grandfather for a favor through me? Let me tell you, don't even think about it!"
After saying that, she looked quite smug.
Chen Feng looked speechless, pointed to Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo behind him, and said helplessly, "Please, what can I ask your grandfather for? Can you help me fight? Even the two of them combined probably wouldn't be a match for Grandpa Sword."
"Put it down..."
Dugu Yan's expression changed, and she wanted to say something swear, but in the end she chose to shut up. It was clear that she was still very wary of Sword Douluo.
Chen Feng said, "The reason I sought out your grandfather is because he knows far more about the Jade Phosphorous Serpent King's venom than you do. He can spot the key to the antidote at a glance, unlike you, who thought you were fine when you were actually deeply poisoned!"
"I'm asking you, do you experience unbearable pain in your bones every time it rains, and does this pain intensify significantly as your soul power increases, and is it relieved by medication?"
Dugu Yan's expression changed, and after hesitating for a moment, she nodded.
Chen Feng nodded and said, "That's right! This toxin is inherent in your Azure Phosphorous Serpent King's martial soul, not caused by external factors. And those so-called medicinal liquids cannot suppress the boiling soul power, so they naturally cannot relieve your pain."
Upon hearing this, Dugu Yan's expression changed.
In truth, she already believed him to some extent, because what Chen Feng said was exactly the same as what had happened to her. However, her dislike for Chen Feng reduced her trust to three-tenths.
Chen Feng then pointed to her eyes and said, "Everyone thinks that your pupils are naturally beautiful, a beauty bestowed upon you by the Azure Phosphorous Serpent King. But in reality, your eyesight has been damaged by the poison. If I'm not mistaken, you no longer see things in their original colors; they appear somewhat greenish, right?"
Dugu Yan hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
Chen Feng stated definitively, "I dare say that if you ignore it and continue to ignore the poison in your body, you will go completely blind in less than two years!"
"You're talking nonsense. If the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor Martial Soul really had such strong side effects, then how come my grandfather was alright?" Dugu Yan retorted unwillingly.
Chen Feng said, "The timing of the toxin's onset varies depending on a person's constitution. Besides, your grandfather isn't unaffected; he's been suppressing it with various concocted medicinal liquids, and his soul power has already reached the Title Douluo level, which is why he doesn't appear to have any abnormalities."
"What you don't know is that your grandfather's illness has truly penetrated to the bone marrow precisely because of his powerful cultivation. You might still be able to be saved, but your grandfather... sigh!"
"One more thing, if I'm not mistaken, your father also died from the venom of the Jade Phosphorous Serpent King, right?"
Upon hearing this, Dugu Yan was struck dumb, her mind going completely blank.
