The True Heiress Is The Real Bigshot novel Chapter 682

Chapter 682: 568 This is a big fall from the horse, are you the Diviner too?【2 more updates】

Madam Xu and the steward were just taken to the Judicial Hall by Yun Shan.

Patriarch Xu was still lying on the ground, lifeless.

Indeed, those medicinal herbs could not be used to make any lethal poisons, but that’s only for the average Ancient Medicine practitioner.

For Ying Zijin, all she needed to do was alter the dosage of the herbs and the order in which they were added to the medicine furnace, and she could refine a new Pill.

This Pill was highly beneficial for healthy individuals.

However, Patriarch Xu’s body was already broken. Such an excessively nourishing medicine not only failed to cure his poison, but also, due to its overwhelming potency, his body couldn’t withstand it, and he perished.

Foo Chen hurried to follow: "Old... Auntie, this is Miss Ying."

He then said to the girl, "Miss Ying, this is my aunt."

Ying Zijin looked up, her face fully exposed to view.

Foo Xi’s fingers trembled even more violently as she struggled to contain her emotions: "You, leave."

Foo Chen was startled: "Ah?"

Foo Xi didn’t want to say another word, and with a wave of her hand and a gust of wind, she blew Foo Chen out.

Ying Zijin paused in expression.

Foo Chen landed on his buttocks and almost fell apart, feeling dizzy and disoriented.

He had yet to recover when the door "bang" shut.

The next second, Foo Xi’s Inner Strength completely enveloped the room.

Those with lesser Ancient Martial Cultivation could not probe the situation inside.

The room was very quiet.

Foo Xi took a deep breath and knelt before the girl.

Her voice trembled, her throat choked up: "Disciple Foo Xi, pays respects to Master."

That clearly wasn’t the face she knew.

But Foo Xi knew this was the master who had taken her out of the slums.

Ying Zijin taught her for three years, passing on the Art of Alchemy and Acupuncture Technique.

Allowing her to establish the Foo Family and the Heavenly Medical Sect.

Though it was not the face she remembered, her master now seemed more alive, more vivid, and had a more human touch.

In other words, she became a living, breathing person.

Unlike before, like a heartless rock, unmoved by anything.

"Don’t kneel," Ying Zijin finally spoke after a long silence, in a low voice, "So much time has passed, and I don’t like these cumbersome formalities."

"To me, Master has granted a life anew," Foo Xi did not get up, but bowed again, "Even kneeling is not enough, I would give my life to Master, and it would be deserved."

The grace of a teaching master is indeed greater than heaven and earth, heavier than the duty to one’s parents.

She had been an orphan from a young age, with Ying Zijin being the only one who ever taught her.

It was as if time had reversed back to long ago,

Ying Zijin remained silent, not speaking.

She had thought that she might die, but she never imagined that she would return to Earth and see her old acquaintance.

All this was beyond her expectation.

She didn’t even think anyone would remember her for so long.

Ying Zijin picked up a tissue and gently wiped away Foo Xi’s tears.

She was softer-hearted toward someone of the same sex.

If Xize Lorentz cried in front of her, she would not care.

Foo Xi finally regained composure, stood up, and asked earnestly, "Master, is that your real name?"

Ying Zijin tossed the tissue into the trash can: "Yes, my surname is Ying, and my name is Zijin."

Foo Xi murmured, "That’s nice."

In her lifetime, she could know the real name of her master.

At that moment, the door was pushed open.

Foo Xi’s expression changed, and she swiftly turned to look.

Upon seeing the man, she let out a soft exclamation of surprise: "Eh? It’s you?"

She remembered Fu Yunshen.

Because no one had visited the Ancient Medical World more often than Fu Yunshen, each time in a near-death state.

She had even wondered whether he would survive.

Fu Yunshen nodded slightly, smiling: "Foo Xi, thank you for your timely assistance."

Foo Xi, however, frowned and didn’t reply, instead looking straight at the girl.

Ying Zijin took the hot fruit juice from Fu Yunshen’s hand: "He can know."

Foo Xi didn’t ask why, only respectfully said, "Yes, Master."

As this title was uttered, a deafening silence ensued.

Fu Yunshen was calm, his eyebrows twitching slightly.

Foo Chen, who had followed inside, was genuinely stunned: "Master?"

Ying Zijin was the master of the Foo Family’s ancestor?

What the hell?

This was truly fantastical.

Foo Chen was very clear that even if one could cultivate to pause aging and extend life, it was absolutely impossible to change bone age.

The Bone Age Pill Alliance had records of Ying Zijin’s bone age, which was 18, going on 19. _{freёwebnovel.com}

What was going on?

Foo Chen was utterly bewildered.

Fu Yunshen changed the subject: "Shall we go eat?"

"Steak."

"Got it, wanna lift?"

"Mm."

"This topic change isn’t very good," Fu Yunshen said with a chuckle, pressing his forehead against hers, "But it’s true that my ability does exceed the ordinary. Sometimes I feel that I learn things very quickly, as if I was born with some skills."

"Hmm, maybe the difference between you and me is that I don’t have memories of the past," he mused.

"That’s quite alright," Ying Zijin leaned on his shoulder, "Then you don’t have to carry any psychological burden."

She also knew why she liked him.

Because only with him could she be a child.

**

The commotion at the Xu Family Patriarch had long startled the entire Xu Family.

But no one was dealing with it; instead, they were happy to see it happen.

With the Xu Family Patriarch’s death, his influence dissolved, making it perfect for them to move up.

Foo Xi killed quite a few of the Xu Family’s guards, including the Elders Council.

But the Xu Family’s ancestor could only hold back because his Ancient Martial Cultivation was just over two hundred years, not as strong as Foo Xi’s anyway.

After all, the Xu Family wasn’t wiped out.

After the Xu Family Patriarch’s death, a new family head was quickly selected.

Xu Bai successfully ascended to the position of family head.

The guards came to report the day’s events to him.

"Poisoned to death?" Xu Bai frowned, "Are you sure it was Ancient Medicine that poisoned him to death?"

"Certainly," the guard saluted, "They had invited the Pill Alliance’s new genius alchemist Ying Zijin, but the Xu Family Patriarch died after taking the medicine she refined."

"Tch," Xu Bai said indifferently, "This matter doesn’t concern us. The Ancient medical field will have their own judgment. Send the word out, from now on, no one is to provoke Ying Zijin."

"The Xu Family will withdraw from all strife and focus on development first."

He did not know who the woman who broke into the Xu Family today was, but it was clear she had come for Ying Zijin.

The loss of three Ancient Martial Grandmasters was a severe blow to the Xu Family this time.

Xu Bai asked further, "How did the Fifth Elder die?"

The guard shook his head, "We haven’t found out yet, probably also killed by that woman."

Xu Bai nodded and no longer pursued the matter.

After getting his affairs in order, he began to purge all of the Xu Family Patriarch’s cronies.

**

The Xu Family’s massacre was embarrassing and naturally wouldn’t be fully publicized.

The Ancient medical field only knew that people from the Xu Family had died.

What was most crucial was that the Xu Family Patriarch had died after taking Ying Zijin’s medicine.

This caused an uproar.

Because Ying Zijin’s reputation was indeed not low now, the Pill Alliance convened a meeting overnight.

The Vice Alliance Leader and the heads of the Hall all participated.

"Ancient Medicine should only use medical skills to save people, how can they kill?" Head of the Hall Fang sneered coldly, "She is violating medical ethics and breaking the rules established by the Ancient medical field. How is she any different from those malicious Ancient physicians like Shi Fengyi?"

"I suggest, we take away her Inner Strength and prevent her from practicing medicine."
