"Thank you," Tang Zhuozhuo said to Ye Kunlun.
Ye Kunlun smiled wryly. Seeing Tang Zhuozhuo's sincere expression, he replied, "I think you haven't quite understood one thing. I'm not helping the Tang family; I myself want to read the wordless book!"
"No matter what, thank you anyway!" Tang Zhuozhuo said earnestly.
"Think whatever you want!"
With that, Ye Kunlun glanced at Wang You, who was kneeling beside them, and his voice turned cold. "Are you planning to kneel there forever?"
After speaking, Ye Kunlun walked out of the Tang family's residence.
Wang You shivered and quickly got up from the ground, following Ye Kunlun's footsteps.
Tang Zhuozhuo also hurried to catch up to Ye Kunlun. "I think the conditions at your Wujian Prison are a bit poor. How about you stay at our Tang family's place?"
Tang Zhuozhuo blinked her beautiful eyes. If he agreed to stay, she could slowly unravel the secrets on him. Ye Kunlun was like a mystery.
"Heh heh," Ye Kunlun sneered.
Tang Zhuozhuo smiled, her eyes curving as she looked at him again. "Oh right, can you guess who poisoned Grandma?"
Hearing this, Ye Kunlun paused. He looked at Tang Zhuozhuo and said, "You want to know?"
Tang Zhuozhuo was stunned and replied, "Of course!"
Ye Kunlun glanced at Wang You, who was following behind him. Wang You shivered, "Pavilion Master, have I... have I made another mistake?"
Ye Kunlun wouldn't speak without reason, and Tang Zhuozhuo also looked at Wang You. Wang You looked fearful and dared not speak further.
"You have a strange scent about you. Have you been refining pills recently?" Ye Kunlun asked.
Since Ye Kunlun had easily defeated the experts brought by Changsun Han, and considering his identity as the Pavilion Master of Piaoxue Pavilion, Wang You dared not hide anything. He took a deep breath, calmed himself, and said to Ye Kunlun, "Reporting to the Pavilion Master, before coming to the capital, I was indeed refining pills."
"Who were you refining them for, and what kind of pills?" Tang Zhuozhuo asked impatiently.
"The Patriarch of the Changsun family gave me a pill many years ago and asked me to refine the same kind of pill." Wang You recounted the matter of Changsun Changkong asking him to refine pills to Ye Kunlun in detail.
"That pill was refined by the Changsun family's genius 'Pill King' back then, and it has become a legendary pill. Changsun Changkong told me he asked me to help refine it to commemorate his ancestor."
"Moreover, I investigated it. The refining method for that pill is a bit complex, and one of the medicinal ingredients is quite special. Other than that, the pill is not toxic; it can be said to be an ordinary pill." After finishing, Wang You looked nervously at Ye Kunlun and Tang Zhuozhuo.
"It's the Changsun family!" Tang Zhuozhuo looked at Ye Kunlun, her beautiful eyes filled with coldness, completely certain.
"An ordinary pill?" Ye Kunlun snorted. "As a alchemist of Piaoxue Pavilion, you tell me a pill with added 'Dilong Sui' is an ordinary pill?"
Wang You shivered again, looking at Ye Kunlun with horror. He never expected Ye Kunlun to directly name the special ingredient. After all, he had spent a long time studying it to extract Dilong Sui from the pill given to him by Changsun Changkong.
"I know Dilong Sui is highly poisonous, but... but... after adding Dilong Sui, that pill was indeed non-toxic. I tested it multiple times," Wang You explained tremblingly.
"Because it only becomes a potent poison after merging with another substance!" Tang Zhuozhuo interjected, recalling what Ye Kunlun had said in the room.
Hearing this, Wang You's horror deepened. "Potent poison?!"
"That's right, potent poison!" Ye Kunlun replied. He did not press Wang You further, as he could tell he was not lying. From the moment he first saw Wang You, he had smelled the special pill scent and guessed that the poisoner was the Changsun family.
"Changsun family, my Tang family is irreconcilable with you!" Tang Zhuozhuo said angrily, her voice filled with killing intent.
"From what I know, your Tang family's overall strength is inferior to the Changsun family," Ye Kunlun said calmly, looking at the angry Tang Zhuozhuo. "What will you use to be irreconcilable with the Changsun family?"
"We can cooperate." Tang Zhuozhuo's eyes flickered, and she began to scheme against Ye Kunlun again.
"I can see you have some major conflict with the Changsun family," Tang Zhuozhuo put away her anger and fixed her gaze on Ye Kunlun. "Although our Tang family is not as strong as the Changsun family, we are still one of the seven great clans, and we have been in the capital for so many years. We understand the Changsun family better than you do!"
Ye Kunlun looked at Tang Zhuozhuo deeply, a slight smile playing on his lips. "It sounds not bad. Then let's cooperate once."
Tang Zhuozhuo breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that Ye Kunlun would retort with something like, "With my abilities, why should I cooperate with your Tang family?" Although she had only met Ye Kunlun three times, she knew his temperament. Fortunately, Ye Kunlun had agreed.
"With our cooperation, he is the best pawn," Ye Kunlun said, pointing at Wang You.
Wang You's face fell as he realized Ye Kunlun was targeting him again.
"You don't want to atone for your crimes?" Ye Kunlun said coldly to Wang You.
"Your subordinate dares not. I will obey whatever the Pavilion Master commands." Wang You quickly pledged his loyalty. Moreover, he had consumed the Heart Devouring Pill, and to be detoxified, he had to return to Piaoxue Pavilion. The poison of the Heart Devouring Pill could only be neutralized by Piaoxue Pavilion!
"Changsun Han did not hear my conversation with you, nor does he know that I am the Pavilion Master of Piaoxue Pavilion. After you return to the Changsun family, you will say this..." Tang Zhuozhuo's eyes revealed a mischievous glint as she listened to Ye Kunlun instructing Wang You.
"I didn't expect you to be so wicked!" Tang Zhuozhuo managed to say after holding back for a long time.
"Wicked?" Ye Kunlun's eyes showed a fierce glint. "This is just the beginning. You haven't seen my truly wicked side yet." Ye Kunlun's dark eyes held a strong sense of deterrence, making Tang Zhuozhuo feel inexplicably flustered. She quickly averted her gaze and huffed, "Do you want to stay for lunch?"
"Forget it!" Ye Kunlun refused. "Your Tang family's Old Madam doesn't seem to welcome me, so I won't stay here to be an annoyance."
Hearing Ye Kunlun say this, Tang Zhuozhuo couldn't help but laugh. "You know you're annoying."
"By the way, I heard that the Po Ling Pill bought by Nangong Lie was stolen last night?" Tang Zhuozhuo remembered something and asked with a smile.
"Why do you say it like I know something?" Ye Kunlun frowned slightly, feeling a bit exasperated.
"You definitely know something, or perhaps that Po Ling Pill also entered Ziyan Tower through you?" Tang Zhuozhuo said with a smile.
"The Po Ling Pill did indeed enter Ziyan Tower through me. My purpose in coming to the capital is very simple: to find the murderer who chased my family of four ten years ago!"
"How can I help?" Tang Zhuozhuo asked sincerely.
Ye Kunlun thought for a moment and replied, "Find a way to take me to the Dongtu Manor."
"The Changsun family's Dongtu Manor? Alright!" Tang Zhuozhuo agreed without asking further questions!
On the other side, Changsun Han was carried back to the Changsun family, shocking the entire clan!
