Chapter 491: Chapter 491: Exposing the Truth
Lin Fei’s X-ray Vision saw the Golden Centipede inside Master Su’s body, it had already reached his stomach and was moving towards his heart.
The heart is the most critical part of the human body. If the Golden Centipede bore into the heart and bit through it,
then even immortals couldn’t save Master Su.
Therefore, Lin Fei channeled True Qi, and struck a palm at the location of the Golden Centipede.
True Qi surged out like a flood.
Master Su immediately felt his stomach churn violently, extremely uncomfortable.
“Pfft!” Master Su suddenly raised his head, opened his mouth, and spewed a mouthful of fresh blood.
Pop, the blood hit the ground.
The Golden Centipede moved swiftly, darting towards Master Qingteng, seemingly wanting to hide on him.
Swish!
A flying needle shot through the air.
“Zz.” As the Golden Centipede crawled to the foot of Master Qingteng, a silver needle pinned its head to the floor, emitting a very faint sound.
Although the head of the Golden Centipede was pinned to the floor by the silver needle, its body writhed, seemingly trying to free itself from the needle.
Seeing the Golden Centipede pinned to the floor with a flying needle, Master Qingteng glared fiercely at Lin Fei, flames of anger burning, wanting to kill Lin Fei.
This Golden Centipede was an exotic creature he painstakingly searched for in the mountains, cultivated with years of sinister magic to become a Gu Insect.
Now, Lin Fei pinned it to the floor with one needle.
His heart bled.
This was his lifeblood.
Moreover, Lin Fei’s needle had pierced through the Golden Centipede’s head, making it impossible for it to survive.
Although anger burned within him, wanting to kill Lin Fei,
he couldn’t explode because admitting the Golden Centipede was his Gu Insect would be equivalent to confessing he framed Master Su with the strange illness.
“What’s… what kind of insect is this?” Su Xiaoyue’s face showed horror as she asked Lin Fei.
Lin Fei said, “This is a Golden Centipede, a rare species of centipede, immune to water, fire, and poison. Wizards consider it the best Gu Insect.”
Saying this, Lin Fei told Su Xiaoyue, “Simply put, your grandfather was poisoned with a Gu.”
“A Gu!” Su Xiaoyue’s face changed, filled with shock.
Zheng Yutong and Xiao Ling also showed surprise on their faces.
Even Qin Zheng and the police stood up, being officers of the law, hearing about someone being framed using Gu Skill, how could they stand by?
Lin Fei nodded at Su Xiaoyue and said, “Poisoning someone with Gu requires someone who frequently approaches Master Su, so the one who set the Gu must be within the Su family.”
Su Xiaoyue suddenly remembered something and pointed at Yan Chunhua and Master Qingteng, saying, “The ones who poisoned my grandfather must be them.”
Yan Chunhua, whose heavily powdered face turned even paler, stuttered, “Su… Su Xiaoyue, you… you can’t accuse me falsely! I’m the master’s wife, why would I harm him?”
Master Qingteng, however, remained calm, with a slight smile, “Miss, you can’t accuse me without evidence. I have the right to sue you for defamation, and also, with the police here, I trust Miss will act with caution.”
“Lin Fei, what’s going on?” At this moment, Qin Zheng approached and asked Lin Fei.
Lin Fei, unruffled, told Qin Zheng, “Director Qin, the reason I called you over is that I discovered someone trying to frame Master Su.
Now, forcing the Golden Centipede Gu insect out of Master Su corroborates my suspicion.”
Indeed, Lin Fei called Qin Zheng upon hearing Su Xiaoyue mention that Master Qingteng was treating Master Su but never cured him.
So Lin Fei suspected that Master Qingteng deliberately didn’t cure Master Su, so he’d always rely on Master Qingteng and easily fall under his control.
Of course, if this were just speculation, later on, Su Xiaoyue said her grandfather’s strange illness began after marrying Yan Chunhua, who also invited Master Qingteng to treat him.
This made Lin Fei suspicious, thinking Master Su’s sudden illness was inevitably linked to Yan Chunhua and Master Qingteng.
This is why he called Qin Zheng.
Qin Zheng nodded at Lin Fei and said sternly, “Using sinister arts to poison others is a crime, and the police will handle it seriously. Lin Fei, who poisoned Master Su?”
Lin Fei replied, “Director Qin, as to who poisoned Master Su, I think Master Su himself has the best say.”
Qin Zheng and Su Xiaoyue both turned their gaze to Master Su on the bed.
Su Xiaoyue took out a tissue to wipe the blood from her grandfather’s mouth.
Although Master Su spat out a mouthful of blood, expelling the Golden Centipede Gu insect meant his illness root was gone. Though he still needed rest, his life was no longer in danger.
“Master Su, do you know who poisoned you?” Qin Zheng asked Master Su.
Master Su’s eyes immediately showed rage, pointing at Yan Chunhua and Master Qingteng, he said, “They poisoned me!”
Yan Chunhua’s face turned deathly pale, her body couldn’t help but tremble slightly.
But Master Qingteng remained as calm as usual, his expression deep, making it hard to discern what he was thinking.
Seeing Yan Chunhua’s face change and body tremble, Lin Fei, Qin Zheng, Su Xiaoyue, and others guessed she was related to the poisoning.
Qin Zheng then asked Master Su, “Master Su, could you please explain the situation in detail.”
Master Su nodded and said, “It’s my fault, seduced by Yan Chunhua’s beauty and marrying her. On our wedding night, I felt something crawling into my ear in my sleep.
The next day, I had severe abdominal pain, went to the hospital, and no expert could find a problem.
But upon returning home, the pain attacked again, unbearable.
I visited the hospital over a dozen times, eventually, Yan Chunhua said she had a relative who was a mystical healer and could treat me.”
Lin Fei, Su Xiaoyue, and others hearing this understood that the mystical healer must be Master Qingteng.
Master Su continued.
Following Yan Chunhua’s advice brought Master Qingteng, the mystical healer, to the Su family to treat him.
“Originally, hiring a mystical healer was to recover from my strange illness quickly, but little did I know, it was inviting a wolf into my house!” Master Su said this filled with remorse and anger.
Master Qingteng treated him for half a month then showed his true face, telling Master Su he was dosed with Gu.
At first, Master Su didn’t believe it; Master Qingteng chanted a curse, and Master Su was immediately attacked by the Gu insect, rolling and screaming in pain.
In the end, Master Su had to beg Master Qingteng for his life.
But Master Qingteng demanded he transfer Su Group shares to Yan Chunhua’s name.
Master Su, wanting to live, had to agree to Master Qingteng’s terms, transferring ten percent of Su Group shares to Yan Chunhua.
“However, this Master Qingteng wasn’t satisfied, instead using Gu Skill to constantly threaten me, forcing me to transfer more shares to Yan Chunhua.” Finally, Master Su looked at Qin Zheng and said, “Director Qin, you must arrest this Master Qingteng!”
