Ch74 - Zhang Family Brother and Sister

Looking at Liu Mufeng’s indifferent face, Wang Jiang twitched the corners of his mouth. “Cousin, do you need to be so heartless?”

Liu Mufeng smiled. “As I have said, even brothers settle accounts. Do you want the detoxifying grass?”

“Yes!” Nodding, Wang Jiang took out five thousand spirit stones without hesitation and handed them to Liu Mufeng.

After receiving the spirit stones, Liu Mufeng smiled. Then, he took out the jade box from his storage ring and carefully took out a small piece of grass that he had just picked on their way a while ago and gave it to Wang Jiang.

Looking at the grass in his hand, Wang Jiang widened his eyes in astonishment. “No, isn’t this? Is this the antidote?”

“Yes, that’s it. Don’t talk nonsense, and eat it quickly. The venom will attack your heart, and you can’t be saved by talking. Eat it!” Looking at Wang Jiang, Liu Mufeng urged.

“En,en!” Wang Jiang hurriedly wiped the grass with his sleeves and ate it.

Seeing that Wang Jiang had bought the antidote, Wang Feng and Wang Kun immediately took out the spirit stones, bought the grass, and ate them.

After seeing the three Wang brothers eating the antidote, the blood from their wounds slowly turned red. The brother and sister Zhang Yan and Zhang Hui also immediately took out spirit stones and handed them to Liu Mufeng to buy the detoxifying grass.

Looking at the spirit stones handed to him, Liu Mufeng shook his head. “I don’t want your spirit stones. I want the Nine-petaled flowers.”

Zhang Hui was stunned and thought to herself, ‘How does this person know about the Nine-petaled flower? He shouldn’t have.’

“What nonsense are you talking about? We don’t have any Nine-petaled flowers.” Shaking his head, Zhang Yan immediately denied it.

Seeing Zhang Yan’s appearance, Liu Mufeng sneered. “The Nine-petaled flowers and this grass are born together. The Golden-capped Scorpions are the guardian beast of the Nine-petaled flower, and the three accompany each other. So the Golden-capped Scorpions rushed out to chase you. Therefore, I had the opportunity to easily get the detoxifying grass, the antidote for the poison of the Golden-capped Scorpion–Verdant Scorpion Grass.”

The three brothers of the Wang family had strange expressions on their faces. So, when Liu Mufeng was picking the grass just now, he knew that there were Golden-capped Scorpions, Nine-petaled flowers, and intruders here? This was really a magic trick.

Hearing what Liu Mufeng said, the faces of the Zhang brother and sister were distorted.

Liu Mufeng smiled. “I dug up all the Verdant Scorpion Grass outside the Golden-capped Scorpion’s nest. If you don’t want to trade with me, it’s okay, you just wait for the venom to kill you.” ‘Cousin. Cousin? What a joke. When the original owner was five years old without a father or mother, where were these cousins of his? When the original owner was assigned to Zhang Family Village, where were these cousins? Isn’t it too late to think about climbing relatives just now?’

“No, not one, but five. I checked the area where the soil was loose. You dug up five Nine-petaled flowers. And one of them is at least five hundred years old.” He narrowed his eyes and said coldly.

The faces of the Zhang brother and sister turned black. They never thought that this Liu Mufeng would be difficult to deal with. He even knew how many Nine-petaled flowers they got.

“Liu Mufeng, we took so much effort to get this opportunity. Why do you want it?” Staring at Liu Mufeng fiercely, Zhang Hui said unwillingly.

Liu Mufeng sneered. “Are you kidding me? The opportunity you’ve worked so hard to get? I solved everything. If I hadn’t released the Water Spirit Insect, the five of you would be dead by now.” This Zhang Hui was really shameless!

“Liu Mufeng, you are a wolf-hearted thing. You are actually going to let your cousins die for a few spiritual flowers. You are too much. No wonder our grandfather doesn’t want you!” Zhang Yan barked.

“Zhang Yan, don’t talk nonsense!” Staring at Zhang Yan, Wang Feng scolded coldly. His heart was saying,‘Zhang Yan, this idiot. Grandpa is now racking his brains to find a way to let his cousin go home. She dared to say such a thing. She’s foolish and hopeless!’

“Mufeng, look, let them give you three Nine-petaled flowers. What do you think?” Wang Jiang whispered.

“No, I came to the secret realm to find opportunities, not do good deeds. I killed the Golden-capped Scorpions, and the five Nine-petaled flowers should belong to me. If they want their lives, they will exchange the flowers with me for the Verdant Scorpion Grass. If they don’t want their lives, they can die with the Nine-petaled flowers. They will be poisoned within a cup of tea anyway. When they die, I can also get the Nine-petaled flowers.” Having said that, Liu Mufeng sneered.

He, Liu Mufeng, would not do thankless things. The Nine-petaled flower can refine seven kinds of medicinal pills, which was extremely precious, and he was bound to get it. As for the brother and sister of the Zhang family, they were the cousins of the original owner, and they had nothing to do with him. However, even if the original owner was alive, there would presumably be no family affection for this brother and sister pair.

“You, you, you vicious…” Before Zhang Yan finished speaking, Wang Feng stepped forward and slapped her.

“Eldest cousin!” Zhang Yan’s eyes widened in disbelief, and her eyes turned red with grievance.

“Shut your mouth and take out the flowers!” Wang Feng said coldly.

“Eldest cousin, I…”

“Don’t talk nonsense. Take them out!” Staring darkly at Zhang Yan, Wang Feng urged coldly.

Looking at her fierce cousin, Zhang Yan had no choice but to take out a jade box from her storage ring and gave it to Wang Feng.

Taking the box, Wang Feng opened the box and brought it to Liu Mufeng. “Mufeng, do you want to check it?”

After taking it over, Liu Mufeng checked it and determined that there were exactly five flowers inside and one was five hundred years old. He nodded with satisfaction. He put the flowers into his jade box, took out two stalks of succulents and gave them to Wang Feng.

After getting the Verdant Scorpion Grass, Wang Feng did not dare to delay. He immediately gave it to the Zhang brother and sister so that the two could eat the roots of the Verdant Scorpion Grass.

Although the poison was cured and their life was recovered, the Zhang brother and sister’s faces were still very ugly. Especially when they saw Liu Mufeng, their faces were gloomy, and their hearts were very aggrieved.

Ignoring the look of the two siblings staring fiercely at him, Liu Mufeng turned around and walked towards the outside of the woods. The others also left with him.

“Mufeng, you are really amazing. That Nine-petaled flower, what kind of flower are they? That Golden-capped Scorpion and the grass, you seem to know everything. There is nothing in this world that you don’t know.” Wang Jiang said excitedly.

“It’s nothing. I have read it in a book.” Smiling, Liu Mufeng said modestly.

“A book? What book?” Wang Jiang asked curiously.

Liu Mufeng shook his head. “I don’t remember the title. I read a lot of books. Sometimes I don’t read the title. I just read the content.”

“Oh? Then what books do you read?” After thinking about it, Wang Jiang asked again.

“Introducing history, geography, demon beasts, and various spiritual plants. I’ve read all the books in Black Dragon City’s bookstores.” This was the truth. Not only had he read them, but he had also memorized all their contents.

“Wow, you are really amazing. You actually read so many books.” Wang Jiang looked at him, his face full of admiration.

“Chii, a lot of idle books. What’s the use of reading them?” Zhang Yan snorted and said with a look of disdain.

“Why is it useless? At least Mufeng knows that the Verdant Scorpion Grass can detoxify the venom of the Golden-capped Scorpion. It’s better than some people who don’t understand anything but only know how to be reckless and implicate others!” Speaking of this, Wang Jiang glared at Zhang Yan unhappily.‘If it wasn’t for Zhang Yan and Zhang Hui, he wouldn’t be bitten by those scorpions. If Mufeng hadn’t released the Water Spirit Insects in time, he might have been more than just being bitten.’

“You…” Zhang Yan was annoyed when she heard Wang Jiang’s words.

“Enough!” With a scolding tone, Wang Feng gave Zhang Yan a sideways glance.

“Fifth brother, are they going to follow us?” After glancing at the Zhang brother and sister, Liu Mufeng looked at Wang Jiang.

“En, they are the Sixth Aunt’s son and daughter, as well as your cousins. So, they will follow us.” Looking at Liu Mufeng, Wang Jiang said grudgingly. He also doesn’t like these two cousins of his. They always looked down on him and always scolded him for being noisy every time they got together.

“Oh, I see. Tell them about my rules. So that they won’t be bitten or killed instantly, and they will come to blame me again.” After glancing at Wang Jiang, Liu Mufeng said so.

“En!” Nodding, Wang Jiang looked at the Zhang brother and sister. “Cousins, Mufeng doesn’t like being disturbed when cultivating at night. He will place the Golden Insects outside his tent. If anyone touches his tent, the Golden Insects will bite you two. So stay away from Mufeng’s tent at night. Otherwise, if you will be eaten by the Golden Insects, you can only blame yourself for your deaths.”

The Zhang brother and sister were stunned. “He? He sleeps with bugs at night?”

“He doesn’t sleep with bugs. He uses bugs to keep guard at night. Remember, stay away from your cousin’s tent and don’t touch his tent. Do you understand?” Looking at the two of them, Wang Jiang said solemnly.

“Yes, we understand!” The Zhang brother and sister said reluctantly and thought to themselves,‘This Liu Mufeng is quite shrewd, actually using the Golden Insects to keep watch. It seems that it is impossible to secretly give him a lesson.’

“Mufeng, I think that your Water Spirit Insects are quite powerful, huh? So why don’t you let them guard at night?” Wang Jiang asked curiously.

“The venom of Water Spirit Insects has no antidote. If I keep vigil with Water Spirit Insects, you will have to wait to die if you are accidentally bitten.” The Water Spirit Insects were the most powerful of the Five Elements Spirit Insects. This was also why Liu Mufeng gave the Water Spirit Insects to his wife.

“Oh, that’s why. Use the Golden Insects. The Golden Insects are better.” Wang Jiang immediately said that the Golden Insects were better, as he didn’t want to be accidentally bitten to death by the Water Spirit Insects
