The Yunnan Branch did this?
I didn't have time to ask. I asked them to put Xu Shuxing on the bed. Then, I went to check his body.
Xu Shuxing's face darkened. At first glance, I thought he was poisoned. After a closer look, I found that he was indeed poisoned. However, it wasn't a simple case of poisoning. He had been hit by poisonous Dao energy, which was why he was showing symptoms of being poisoned.
I had heard that some geomancy masters didn't have magic tools to use, and their Dao energy or talismans weren't powerful enough. That was why they had to find another way. When they cultivated their Dao energy, they had to take poisons to force the poison into their Dao energy and fuse it with the Dao energy. This way, the Dao energy could carry the poison and increase its power.
When I heard about this, I thought it was unbelievable. If the Dao energy wasn't pure enough, it would affect one's future progress. Moreover, it would be much more difficult to control the magic tools.
I didn't expect that someone would do this in real life.
After finding out the reason, I moved the Dao energy in my body and transferred it to Xu Shuxing's body.
Dao energy was a very powerful energy. As long as the cultivator had the Dao energy to protect him, ordinary poisons couldn't harm him. Xu Shuxing was poisoned because someone had scattered the Dao energy in his body.
After I transferred my Dao energy into his body, Xu Shuxing woke up. He didn't have time to talk. He sat cross-legged and moved the Dao energy in his body to slowly expel the poison.
I heaved a sigh of relief and sat down on a nearby chair. "Xu Shuxing, what happened?"
Zhang Wenfei's face was still full of resentment. "There's a public area not far from the dormitory area. Today, we felt bored, so we went out to sit for a while. Coincidentally, we met the people from the Yunnan Branch.
We didn't pay attention to them at first, but they sat not far away from us and purposely said that they were going to observe the true dragon vein in a few days. They even said that some of the branches were ranked last, and they didn't know if one of them would successfully reach the acupoint realm in the end … "
After listening to him, Xu Shuxing couldn't help but stand up and argue with them. In the end, both sides quarreled and almost started a fight.
However, since the people from the headquarters were there, they didn't fight.
After that, the people of the Yunnan branch left first. We thought it was over. Unexpectedly, when we were on the way back to the dormitory area, we were stopped by Bai Qiwen and his people. "
"This time, there was no one from the headquarters. Bai Qiwen attacked directly. He wasn't very strong, but I was injured and couldn't fight back. The others were no match for him. In the end, Xu Shuxing was seriously injured, and the others were more or less injured," Xu Shuxing said.
Yunnan branch, Bai Qiwen!
I still had some impressions of this person. At that time, I felt that he was thin and small and looked very wretched. As expected, one's appearance was born from one's heart. His methods were also very shameless.
"You didn't report this to the headquarters?" I asked with a frown.
Zhang Wenfei shook his head. "The headquarters has a written rule that anyone who causes trouble here, regardless of the reason, will be immediately expelled.
If the headquarters found out about this, all of us would be expelled. That's why we didn't dare to report it. We could only suffer in silence. "
At this time, Xu Shuxing also got rid of the poison in his body. He struggled to get up from the bed and said weakly, "Bai Qiwen used this rule to sneak attack us. If I'm not wrong, they will hide in their rooms for the next few days. They won't let us find a chance to take revenge."
"That's right."
Zhang Wenfei nodded. He slammed his fist on the table and angrily said, "If I wasn't injured, I would have made those bastards pay the price!
But now, it's too late. I'm afraid we won't be able to find a chance to take revenge. "
The others also had resentful expressions. Some of them even suggested that we directly go to the Yunnan branch's room and fight to the death with them. In any case, we were the last ones to observe the true dragon's vein. We might as well die together.
Before I could say anything, Xu Shuxing shook his head and said, "We don't know what we're doing. The people from the Yunnan branch don't have much talent. Even if they come here, they're just here to accompany the crown prince. If we perish together with them, we'll be the ones to suffer."
I was surprised. Xu Shuxing had a fiery temper. I had seen it more than once. How could he be so calm this time?
Everyone became silent. Our Guangdong branch was ranked eighth. We were one of the top branches in the country. If we perish together with the Yunnan branch, it would be too much of a loss.
But if we didn't do this, what else could we do? Should we just admit defeat?
At this time, Xu Shuxing suddenly grinned and said, "My talent isn't high. I can't compare to Zhou Yi and Zhang Wenfei. Moreover, I'm also injured. I'm afraid it will affect my ability to observe the true dragon's vein. How about this? I'll simply give up this opportunity and go to the headquarters to report this matter.
In any case, I'm the one who's seriously injured. Although you guys were there, you didn't do anything. When the time comes, I'll exchange for those Yunnan bastards. It won't be a loss. "
"How can we do that?"
Zhang Wenfei hurriedly refused. The others didn't want to either. However, Xu Shuxing seemed to have steeled his heart. No matter what, he wouldn't listen. He immediately endured the pain and went to find the headquarters.
In the end, I pulled him back and said with a smile, "Don't be so impulsive. There are many ways to deal with them. Why do you have to use this method of killing ten thousand enemies and injuring eight thousand yourself?
They did such a thing during the ranking competition. I didn't go to find them, but they came to find us first. They really don't know what's good for them. "
As soon as I said that, Zhang Wenfei was the first to understand what I meant. He turned around and frowned at me. "Zhou Yi, what do you mean?
Are you going to find them? "
I nodded. "Of course."
"But they will definitely stay in their rooms for the next few days and won't come out. If you go to find them, there are ten of them. If you go alone …" Zhang Wenfei's voice sounded hesitant.
I smiled and joked, "You're looking down on me. I defeated Han Wennan a few days ago. Do you think the ten people from the Yunnan branch can beat me?"
This time, Xu Shuxing spoke first. "But if you use the Yin Yang Yama Pen, the commotion will be too big. It's very likely that the Metaphysics Association will notice it."
I shook my head. "I don't need the Yama Pen to deal with them."
"You don't need the Yama Pen?"
Zhang Wenfei looked at me solemnly. "Zhou Yi, I know that you're powerful, but Bai Qiwen isn't to be trifled with. In terms of Daoqi, Bai Qiwen is far inferior to you. However, his Daoqi contains poison. It'll be very troublesome to deal with him.
Moreover, there are ten of them. Their combined Daoqi will definitely be more than yours.
Even if you use the Yama Pen, it'll still be troublesome to deal with the ten of them, let's not talk about not using the Yama Pen.
In my opinion, we should wait for Xu Shuxing and I to recover from our injuries. Then, we can go together before they go to observe the true dragon vein. As long as we're careful, it'll be possible to avoid being discovered by the people from the headquarters. "
What he said made sense, but that was before I had obtained that strange dark green power. Now that I had that power, the number of bastards in the Yunnan branch would double. I wouldn't even need to use Yama's brush to deal with them.
However, I couldn't explain this to them, so I could only pretend to give up on taking revenge by myself. I shook my head and said, "Alright, this matter isn't urgent. Xu Shuxing and Zhang Wenfei are still injured. Let's go back and rest first. We'll gather tomorrow morning to discuss this matter and come up with a plan."
Currently, my prestige in the Guangzhou branch was very strong. After I said that, the others didn't have any objections. They temporarily separated and returned to their respective rooms to rest.
After the others left, Zhang Wenfei sat on the bed and remained silent for a while. Then, he sighed and said, "It's all my fault. I let those clowns in the Yunnan branch step on our heads and steal our spots. They even provoked us … Damn it!"
I didn't know how to comfort him, so I walked over and patted his shoulder, telling him to rest early.
Zhang Wenfei sat there and sighed for a long time. In the end, he could only lie down and sleep angrily.
After he slept, I did some simple exercises. I told Zhang Wenfei that I was going to check on Xu Shuxing's injuries. Then, I got up and left.
After I left, I didn't go to find Xu Shuxing. Instead, I went directly to the Gui area.
Although the Yunnan branch had taken our spot in the ranking competition, their rooms hadn't changed. They were still staying in the last few rooms in the Gui area.
When I got there, I didn't know which room Bai Qiwen was in, so I randomly picked a room and knocked on the door. However, no one came to open the door. Feeling helpless, I could only walk along the Gui area and search from the back to the front.
I found the room with the number Gui Shen. Before I could knock on the door, I heard some chaotic noises inside.
I couldn't find anyone in the other rooms, and this room was very messy. I guessed that all the members of the Yunnan branch were gathered in this room.
It was better this way. I didn't have to search room by room.
