Chapter 659: Top Grade Heavenly Spirit Water 1
Su Xi invited Master Leng back to the manor.
When Su Zian saw that Su Xi had actually invited Master Leng over, he gave her an appreciative look.
This daughter is useful after all! Compared to Su Xi, Su Luo is utterly useless!
Then, he rushed forward excitedly, "Master, please come quickly and take a look! Jingyu is not doing well!"
Master Leng's expression turned slightly stern. He frowned and said, "That's impossible." Master Leng was very confident in his treatment methods; how could it possibly worsen?
Master Leng coldly pushed Su Zian away, sat by the bed with a cold face, and began taking the pulse.
Master Leng's face was set and cold; no one could discern anything from the old man's expression.
After examining for a long time, his expression became somewhat displeased, and he fell into deep thought. "How could this be? What exactly happened…? It shouldn't have worsened."
"Master Leng, what… what exactly happened?" Seeing Master Leng's displeasure, Su Zian didn't dare to press too hard, lest he flick his sleeves and leave.
Master Leng stroked his beard and said concisely, "Your son has been poisoned."
"Poisoned? How could he be poisoned? Why wasn't it found yesterday?" Su Zian asked urgently.
Master Leng let out a cold snort, flicked his sleeves, and said angrily, "Are you doubting this Master Alchemist's ability?"
"No, no, no, Master Leng, you've misunderstood. What I meant was…" Su Zian was sweating profusely with anxiety.
In front of Master Leng, who was famous throughout the continent, Su Zian felt weak inside and naturally humbled himself.
Master Leng glared at him. "You don't need to explain. This poison was administered after I left yesterday."
Su Zian's eyes widened!
What? After Master Leng left yesterday, someone poisoned Su Jingyu? That's impossible!
Could it be that Master Leng's ability is insufficient, so he's deliberately saying this…?
Who was Master Leng? Su Zian's flickering gaze was immediately caught by him. Master Leng let out a cold laugh, "You wouldn't possibly think that this Master Alchemist's ability is insufficient, and I'm deliberately lying to deceive you, would you?"
"How could I dare, how could I dare…" Su Zian wiped the sweat from his forehead. If he really angered Master Leng away, Su Jingyu would truly lose his life.
Because if others knew that Master Leng had left the Su manor in anger, flicking his sleeves due to his medical skills being doubted, which other alchemist would dare to take over?
Master Leng glared at him again. "If it weren't for your daughter's sake, this Master Alchemist would be too lazy to bother with your messy affairs and would have turned around and left immediately!"
"Yes, yes, yes." Su Zian was sweating profusely with anxiety. "Master Leng, please don't take offense, please don't."
As Su Zian spoke, he also tugged at Su Xi, who was standing to the side.
Su Xi was tugged by her father like that and almost fell to the ground. She was very confused and looked blankly at her father.
Su Zian gave a forced laugh while dragging Su Xi to kneel on the ground. "Why aren't you quickly thanking Master Leng?"
His words were useless, but Master Leng thought so highly of Xi'er, surely this would work.
Master Leng, however, frowned, flicked his sleeve, and gave a cold snort. Just casually calling a girl to thank him? What did he mean by that? That Su girl was right, Su Zian was truly unreliable!
"Your son was secretly poisoned with Eight-legged Giant Scorpion Poison last night. This poison is extremely virulent and can almost be said to be incurable. Moreover, if there is no antidote within twenty-four hours, he will vomit blood and die." Master Leng swept a light glance at Su Zian.
Su Zian was instantly dumbfounded.
"Master Leng, you just said this poison… is almost incurable. Does that mean there might still be a way?"
