The Unknown Beauty - Chapter 167 The Drug 26

“Wait, does that mean your kids are the twins he was talking about?” said Wu Lang.

“Yes, it must have been. I have identical twin sons,” said Xie Rong.

“Oh no…” said Wu Lang, thinking about what happened to him in the past.

“What?” asked Lin Yu Yan. She is looking ahead, paying attention to Min Fu-Han who is still in front of them but knowing something is wrong from the sound of his voice.

“Min Fu-Han… he probably did something to the twins already. Probably the same thing he did with me and my sister,” said Wu Lang.

“You’re a twin, Wu Lang?” asked Xie Rong, concluding from the way he spoke those words.

“Yes. I’m the younger one. My sister, Wu Long Long, is the older one. We escaped from him a few years ago but… he probably found my sister here when we got separated during the slave trade,” said Wu Lang. He looked down in sadness remembering those days with Min Fu-Han.

They were still going after Min Fu-Han and past edge of the magnetic field and climbing over the walls of Feng City and notice Min Fu-Han running a bit faster then he was before.

“Whao! I feel lighter now!” said Wu Lang, running twice as fast.

“I see… it was the magnetic field that was suppressing our energy and body…” said Lin Yu Yan. ‘No wonder I wasn’t as fast as I wanted to be when I was fighting him.”

“No wonder! I thought I was moving quite slow for some reason. So I wasn’t imagining it!” said Meiying.

“It’s a perfect place to train…” Lin Yu Yan said, almost forgetting the situation they were in.

“Really? Are you really thinking about training now?” said Meiying, rolling her eyes, smiling and sighing. ‘Of course Yu Yan would think of that.’

“Hey! I always think of ways to get stronger, okay? Don’t judge me!” Lin Yu Yan said as the others laugh.

“By the way, who is watching over the people since you are here Meiying?” asked Lin Yu Yan.

“Ah, Wei Ru is,” said Meiying.

“Yeah, He got back from the mission you gave him,” said Wu Lang.

“He finished already?” asked Lin Yu Yan.

“No, more like the mission you gave him is following him now,” said Xie Rong.

“Really? I didn’t think that would happen,” said Lin Yu Yan. “This might be better for the kid.”

“I think so too. I can feel the kid’s anger growing,” said Wu Lang.

They run after Min Fu-Han for a while now. They are faster then the speed they are currently running in but Lin Yu Yan is giving him a chance to run and to fool around for a while. Because he wasn’t in the magnetic field, he manage to use his qi to move faster to the location he was heading.

“Hey… is it just me or the smell is getting… stronger,” said Wu Lang, scrunching his face.

“No, It definitely is getting stronger,” said Xie Rong.

“I actually didn’t think the smell reached the unknown forest anyway,” said Meiying.

“Hurry, This has gone long enough,” said Lin Yu Yan. ‘Ugh! This smell is horrendous!’

Because she and Kenzhi has a better sense of smell then the others, it was giving the two a headache. Lin Yu Yan slowed down next to Kenzhi handing him a thick mask. “It won’t go away entirely, but it should help.”

Kenzhi put on the mask making him breath a little better and Lin Yu Yan then speeds up, finally catches up to Min Fu-Han. But he has stopped in his track and she could see his shoulders shaking.

‘Is he giving up now?’ thought Lin Yu yan. But something didn’t seem right. He wasn’t shaking in fear… he was laughing!

Lin Yu Yan then saw something move behind him.

“Back away!” she yelled, alerting the other to follow.

“HAHAHAHAHAAA! I never thought I would use this so soon!!” said Min Fu-Han.

He jumps on top of the figure as it raises to the moonlight to show itself.

“A Sea King!” said Wu Lang.

“A DEAD Sea King,” said Lin Yu Yan.

“This is where the smell was coming from,” said Xie Rong.

“How… horrible…” said Meiying.

They watch the black figure raise from the ground. The sea king looks a lot like the one they encounter before, when they arrived to the Feng city, but this one was rotting away. Lin Yu Yan doesn’t know the cause nor the reason for it to happen and Min Fu-Han seems to somehow have control over the dead Sea King.

‘I see. Minister Quan is the one that asked this guy to kill Quan Su Wen when we first got here. Not only that, He is the enemy of Meiying; who sold her off to the slave traders and got her teacher addicted to opium; Wu Lang, who experimented on his body, and Xie Rong and his family; who not experimented on his sons but also had relations with his wife…. What a small world…’ Lin Yu Yan thought.

“It seems like those sleeping gas won’t work this time since it’s dead.”

Quan Su Wen sits on her chair, waiting for the next item to be auctioned.

“Next, the longevity pill!!” said the host.

Everyone was waiting for this item. Especially all the ministers since most of them were old and many wanted to live longer.

“Same as the beauty pill, we will start the bid at 100 gold coins!”

“5 million pieces!” said Minister Quan. He wanted to make a high bet so he could get it right away but the other ministers bets were even higher. It past the amount he only had and eventually was sold for 25 million pieces of gold by another Minister among the Chu Empire.

“You idiot sons and daughters of mine! Because of you are I might not be able to get the Longevity pill!” said Minister Quan. He was getting super angry things weren’t going the way he wanted.

“Get someone to kill the emperor! I’m going to start it tonight! I might as well get rid of that garbage too!” said Minister Quan, getting angry at everything.

Quan Xue and Quan Wei-Kang looked over at their father with worry.

On the other hand, Wu Long Long was trying to bid for the pill as well and watched in shock as the number got higher.

‘Sh!t… master is going to be angry…’ she thought.

Quan Su Wen didn’t even try to bid for the item yet. She watched how high of a price the first Longevity pill will be so she can get the last one by bidding for it even higher.

“Now onto the next Longevity pill!” said the host.

“How is she” asked Guo Jinsong.

Hua Maoli was able to get someone from the medical sect. Guo Jinsong was surprise Hua Maoli was able to convince them.

“She’s fine. I gave her first aid so she is stable now. It’s not as serious as you all think so I will make a tonic which should heal her,” said Soo Li Na. She gets the supplies to make the tonic.

“Thank you, lady!” said Xie Tai-Hua.

“Thank you!” said Xie Cheng.

“How did you convince them?” asked Guo Jinsong.

“I didn’t. They just said they would come,” said Hua Maoli. “Saying it was their job to save people when they have the opportunity to.”

“That’s great!” said Guo Jinsong, breathing a sigh of relief.

Hua Maoli looked at Soo Li Na, remembering what she said at the Tang Pharmacy. ‘Lin Yu Yan told them to do their job. Does that mean that Lin Yu Yan isn’t with Minister Quan? Or she isn’t with the Medical Sect.? Or she isn’t with any of them at all? What the hell is going on?’

“Jinsong, I’m going to report to the Chu Emperor,” said Hua Maoli.

“Are you sure?” Guo Jinsong is worried about Hua Maoli about how he had to teleport with 4 other people.

“I should be fine,” he said, reassuring his friend.
