Dai Yaoyao's residence was not far from the Qin family's martial hall, separated only by a street.

The house was not large, but it was very clean and elegant, somewhat at odds with her alluring and changeable appearance.

Xu Wuzhou sat in the living room, where a pretty maid was brewing tea for him.

After Dai Yaoyao returned, she entered the back courtyard.

... In the secret room at the back, a young man was chained to the wall, and Dai Yaoyao stood in front of him.

"What do you want to do?"

The young man looked at the girl in front of him, her light blue dress outlining her exquisite and infinitely beautiful curves.

But he forced himself to look away after just one glance.

This demoness was not someone he could look at casually; if he lost his eyes, he would have no one to complain to.

"I'm going to let you go.

And I'm going to help you detoxify."

Dai Yaoyao said to the young man.

The young man's heart tightened. What new scheme was she up to?

This demoness was unpredictable, and this time, just one glance at her had gotten him bound for no apparent reason. They had no grudges or enmities in the past.

Yu Feng was extremely regretful. He had been driven out of his home by his own father and had come to Lin'an City to avoid familiar people because of the disgusting poison he had been given. He thought this city had a special significance and that he wouldn't run into anyone he knew, but who would have thought he would encounter this demoness.

Seeing that the young man did not answer, Dai Yaoyao asked, "Don't you want to leave?"

"Can't you just tell me what you want to do?

This makes me very scared."

The young man was very uneasy.

"Am I that scary?

I'm very kind, you know!"

Dai Yaoyao replied to the young man.

The young man remained silent.

What about your background, your methods, or your cultivation techniques has anything to do with kindness?

Do you think the name 'demoness' is given by people for no reason?

I may be reckless, but I'm not stupid enough to be reckless in front of you.

"Hehe, even a reckless guy like Yu Feng can be scared."

Dai Yaoyao laughed.

Yu Feng still remained silent.

"I admire your recklessness.

So I'm really going to let you go."

Dai Yaoyao said.

She had captured Yu Feng because he knew her.

Her heart meridian was injured, and if Yu Feng spread the news about her being in Lin'an, it would be very troublesome and dangerous for her.

But now, her heart meridian was 80% healed, and the remaining 20% could be fully recovered with time, even without Xu Wuzhou's help.

Thus, she no longer needed to worry about Yu Feng spreading the news.

Although Yu Feng was reckless, his background was not simple.

"What do you need me to do?"

Yu Feng asked Dai Yaoyao, thinking she wouldn't let him go for no reason.

"I don't need you to do anything, just let you go.

And I can help you detoxify, but I need a promise from you."

Dai Yaoyao said.

"Can you really detoxify me?"

Yu Feng asked.

"Promise to do one thing for me in the future, and I'll help you detoxify."

Dai Yaoyao said, "Do you agree?"

"Yes! I agree! Hurry up and detoxify me."

Yu Feng eagerly said to Dai Yaoyao. As for what he had to do, he didn't care. Nothing was more important than detoxifying.

Yu Feng was almost driven to despair by the poison. He had only slept with his fiancée's best friend, and then her best friend's best friend, and even her younger sister... Then, his own father, to keep him away from women, had given him this poison.

The poison wasn't fatal, but it was disgusting.

The symptoms were identical to those of a venereal disease. Which girl would want to get close to him?

He didn't even dare to go to the brothel, fearing that the girls would beat him out.

How could he live without girls? He couldn't accept it at all.

"Agreeing to something without knowing what it is, you truly live up to your reputation as a reckless guy."

Dai Yaoyao looked at Yu Feng. There weren't many people in the world who would so easily agree to do something for her.

"This isn't important! When will you detoxify me?"

Yu Feng asked anxiously, thinking the most important thing was to make women willing to get close to him again.

Other things, were they really that important?

"Follow me."

Dai Yaoyao untied the ropes.

... Dai Yaoyao brought out a person and asked Xu Wuzhou to take a look.

The person had patches of cauliflower-like red spots on his body and neck, some of which had already become ulcerated, looking very shocking.

"Can you detoxify him?"

Dai Yaoyao was confident in Xu Wuzhou, after all, he had healed her heart injury, but she wasn't sure about the poison given by Yu Feng's father.

"Negative and evil poison, spread throughout the body, concentrated on the skin.

This causes the skin to become negative and evil, and the body goes through a self-regulation process of yin and yang. The negative and evil nature here causes yang energy to neutralize it, and with the accumulation of yang energy, the toxins become stubborn and cannot be neutralized, leading to the accumulation of yang energy into red spots and even ulcers."

Xu Wuzhou explained.

"Can you detoxify him?"

Yu Feng asked anxiously, also wondering who this person was and why Dai Yaoyao had asked him to detoxify him.

"Silver needles can alleviate the symptoms, but to fully recover, medicinal herbs are needed to neutralize the negative and evil toxins."

Xu Wuzhou said.

"Does that mean you can detoxify him?"

Yu Feng was overjoyed, "Come on, alleviate it first. Don't worry about the herbs, I'll definitely get them for you."

Xu Wuzhou looked at Dai Yaoyao, and seeing her nod, he began to treat Yu Feng with silver needles.

The silver needles temporarily regulated the yin and yang balance in his body, and Yu Feng found that most of the red spots on his body had disappeared. He was overjoyed: "Hahaha, I can finally breathe the scent of girls again."

Xu Wuzhou wrote a prescription and handed it to Dai Yaoyao, saying, "Get these herbs, and I'll guarantee a full recovery in two days.

Three hundred taels of silver, please."

Dai Yaoyao threw a bag of silver to Xu Wuzhou and said with a pout, "Don't charge so much next time."

Yu Feng watched this scene, stunned, and looked at Dai Yaoyao, "You spent three hundred taels to detoxify me?"

Seeing Dai Yaoyao nod with a smile, Yu Feng wanted to curse.

What a joke?

This was the poison given by his father, and you're telling me three hundred taels can detoxify it.

And you even forced me to promise something, is my promise only worth three hundred taels?

You're making a huge profit as a middleman.

And is this young man a fool? Anyone who can detoxify his father's poison must be a highly skilled doctor, how could his brain be so messed up?

Yu Feng's eyes asked Dai Yaoyao: Where did you find this fool?

Dai Yaoyao understood Yu Feng's gaze and just smiled.

She suddenly wanted to see Xu Wuzhou's expression when he realized the value of his medical skills.

Yu Feng wisely kept quiet, thinking about whether he could also make a profit as a middleman in the future.

"Two days from now, you have the competition, right?

This time, you're going to make a big splash?"

Dai Yaoyao asked Xu Wuzhou, "Are you ready to take over Lin'an?"

"..." Xu Wuzhou thought to himself, "Take over Lin'an, my ass," but he said, "Haha, we need to plan carefully. Don't expose my ambitions, the timing isn't right yet."

"I understand your meaning, waiting for the right moment to take over Lin'an.

Hehe, I'm saying, if you need help, I can lend you a hand."

Dai Yaoyao said. Yu Feng, listening from the side, felt a chill run down his spine.

He stared blankly at Xu Wuzhou and Dai Yaoyao: What are these two planning?

Take over Lin'an and become king?

Are they crazy? Lin'an may not be a major city, but its significance is enormous, even terrifying.

From the demoness's words, the one planning to take over Lin'an was this young man.

Yu Feng stared blankly at Xu Wuzhou, is this guy even more reckless than me?

...
