Chapter 398: 374 Fu Yunshen: What evidence do I need? [2 updates]

To have the Guard Team Captain of the family personally take action, only the Head of the Family could give such an order.

The mastermind behind this matter was none other than the Head of the Yu Family.

Nie Yi knew that Ying Zijin’s medical skills were exceptional, so after obtaining the information, he went to the Ancient Martial World ahead of time.

Old Master Nie gripped the armrest of his chair tightly and recounted the events of that day with a grave voice, “This matter, it cannot be separated from the Lin Family!”

How could it be such a coincidence that right after Steward Lin visited, Nie Chao was injured by people from the Yu Family?

“The Lin Family,” Fu Yunshen hadn’t expected this twist, his peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly, “It’s the Lin Family again.”

The Lin Family was one of the three major clans in the Ancient Martial World, surpassing the Ling Family by a great margin, let alone the Yu Family.

Not to mention families like the Nie and Mu families, even the other two major clans in the Ancient Martial World wouldn’t clash head-on with the Lin Family.

Especially since, the Lin Family had produced a Lin Qingjia.

Thus, within the Ancient Martial World, the Lin Family had the best relationships with those Ancient Medicine Families.

The reputation of the Lin Family was also the most prominent, with the other two families avoiding their sharp edge.

“First, we go to the Yu Family, then to the Lin Family,” Fu Yunshen didn’t smoke, but he lit a cigarette anyway.

The flame reflected in his light amber-colored pupils, cold and detached.

He spoke indifferently, “Also check who else is involved in this matter, not a single one can be let off.”

Fu Yunshen could guess that the Yu Family targeted that medicine, or more precisely, they targeted Ying Zijin.

The Lin Family, cunning as they were, chose not to act directly but leaked the information to their subordinate clans.

Whether it was injuring Nie Chao or targeting Ying Zijin, each was a line he refused to allow others to cross.

Old Master Nie shook his head, looking defeated, “But we have no evidence.”

Upon hearing this, Fu Yunshen chuckled softly.

He snuffed out the cigarette he had just lit, casually stating, “What need have I for evidence?”

When Old Master Nie heard this remark, he trembled, “You…”

Indeed.

In the Ancient Martial World, power is the only evidence that matters.

“The way things are done in the Ancient Martial World will follow its rules,” Fu Yunshen said as he smiled, his voice as gentle as ever, “Whoever hurts my brother will pay the price.”

Conflicts in the Ancient Martial World were frequent, with life-and-death fights occurring daily and clans being annihilated monthly, thus making death a common event.

Sometimes, the friction between the major clans could be even more brutal than ancient wars.

It was this kind of environment that bred the ruthless and arrogant nature of most ancient martial artists.

In the eyes of many ancient martial artists, life was worth next to nothing.

Old Master Nie also felt fortunate that Nie Yi, after so many years in the Ancient Martial World, hadn’t developed a crooked nature.

Aside, Ying Zijin had rested for a few minutes and stood up, “Let’s go together.”

“Yaoyao, be good, you just exhausted yourself, stay here,” Fu Yunshen’s gaze hardened, “I’ll handle this matter.”

“I won’t fight,” Ying Zijin said softly, “I’m just delivering medicine to them.”

Fu Yunshen paused, knowing what she was thinking.

He caressed her head, his eyes tender, “Then let’s go together.”

**

The Ancient Martial World.

The Yu Family.

“Head of the Family,” the middle-aged man kneeled on one knee, displaying great respect, “The task you commanded has been completed, although a little accident happened during the blood collection process.”

He explained the mishap that had occurred.

After listening, the Head of the Yu Family frowned slightly, but soon relaxed, waving his hand dismissively, “A trifle, don’t worry about it; I’ll have someone send the blood for research shortly.”

The middle-aged man bowed again before leaving.

Although he had accidentally crippled Nie Chao, he hadn’t forgotten to collect the blood.

If they could decipher the composition of the medicine Nie Chao consumed, the strength of the Yu family would also rise.

After the middle-aged man left, the Head of the Yu Family scoffed softly.

Even if their Yu Family was far inferior to the Lin Family, they were still a clan with over a hundred members, and with household guards and protectors, the numbers exceeded five hundred.

Apart from some children and females, the rest were ancient martial artists.

The highest cultivation within the Yu Family belonged to an Elder who had practiced for eighty years.

The Nie Family was a merchant family, a secular clan; how could they compete relying on just a Nie Yi?

No matter how excellent Nie Yi’s ancient martial talent was, no matter how genius, he couldn’t possibly assault the Yu Family alone to seek revenge.

If Nie Yi did rush over, the Head of the Yu Family wouldn’t mind keeping him as well.

The Head of the Yu Family wasn’t particularly concerned about the incident; after sipping his tea, he prepared to rest. However, at that moment, a household guard ran in frantically and knelt with a “thud” on the floor: “Head of the Family, there’s trouble, someone has broken in!”

The Head of the Yu Family’s hand trembled, his expression changing, “What did you say?!”

“It’s Nie Yi!” the household guard said with a trembling voice, “Nie Yi, he’s broken in!”

Hearing that name, the Head of the Yu Family calmed down, “Who do you think it is, just him? Send a few Guard Team Captains.”

Nie Yi, twenty-seven years old this year, had cultivated inner strength since the age of seven when he came to the Ancient Martial World, his cultivation spanning twenty years.

But he alone couldn’t possibly take on several Guard Team Captains.
