In the beginning, he was ranked alongside An Shigeng as a spoiled brat.

Yaoyue was also in hot pursuit. The two figures chased and fled through the mountains and forests at a speed like eagles soaring in the sky. The two ghostly figures disappeared from sight in an instant.

After an unknown amount of time, the two arrived at a valley where hundreds of flowers were in full bloom.

Within the valley, spring-like weather prevails year-round, and wildflowers create a vibrant sea of ​​color.

Deep within, however, a sea of ​​vibrant red flowers creates a romantic atmosphere that captivates visitors.

It was now three months into the spring, the trees were lush and green, and the flowers were just beginning to sprout new buds.

This beautiful valley is truly a magnificent sight.

Even Yaoyue looked surprised, then glanced at Zhang Xiaoshan. She sensed that Zhang Xiaoshan had deliberately brought her here.

"This is where?"

"Valley of Heartbreak!"

Valley of Heartbreak?

Upon hearing such a domineering name, even Yueyue's expression turned solemn. She never imagined that such a place existed in the world.

"This is the place I found out about from Qiu Qianren before; it's also the territory of his brother-in-law, Gongsun Zhi."

However, as far as I know, this Gongsun Zhi is no good. He has probably already murdered Qiu Qianren's sister, which is why I'm here—to reclaim this place!

Gongsun Lü'e and Yang Guo were about the same age.

Although Yang Guo was no longer alive at this time, Gongsun Lü'e should have already been born and was about one or two years old.

Therefore, Qiu Qianchi should have also fallen victim to Gongsun Zhi's poison. Zhang Xiaoshan's goal is not only the Valley of Heartbreak, but also Qiu Qianchi, and then to win over Qiu Qianren.

"You're quite the schemer, but... are you content to live in seclusion like this?"

"Retire to seclusion? Who said I wanted to retire to the countryside?"

I was drawn to the environment here, especially the flowers that bloom in all four seasons, making it a perfect place to make floral essential oils.

Besides that, did you see that beautiful sea of ​​flowers?

That flower is poisonous. Would you like to try it and see if the poison works on you?

"Poison? Who's afraid of who?"

Upon hearing that Zhang Xiaoshan had tested her with poison, Yaoyue immediately reached out and took a bright and beautiful love flower in her hand.

The red flowers are exquisite and extremely beautiful!

Looking at the incomparably beautiful flowers before her, even Yaoyue looked at Zhang Xiaoshan with curiosity and said coldly:

"Is this flower poisonous? Why have I never seen it in the martial arts world?"

"This flower is called the Love Flower, and its poison is naturally the poison of the Love Flower."

With your skill, you could force out even the Heavenly Divine Water in one gulp, but this flower is different.

If there is affection, the deeper the affection, the more the heart aches.

You invited Yue to claim you were both a god and a demon, to test whether the Love Flower would work on you.

If you feel heartache, then it proves you've already fallen in love.

The Poison of the Love Flower?

Yaoyue looked at Zhang Xiaoshan, never expecting that there was such a strange poison in the world. So she opened her mouth and swallowed the Love Flower in one gulp.

"No, the petals aren't poisonous; the poison is in the thorns on the stem."

"You didn't tell me earlier!"

Looking at the thorny flower stem, Yaoyue pricked her hand, and a sharp pain shot through her heart.

"You're poisoned, poisoned by love!"

Seeing Yaoyue's eyes narrow, Zhang Xiaoshan knew that Yaoyue was in pain.

"Who said that?"

Wearing a mask, Yaoyue didn't believe Zhang Xiaoshan's words, but at this moment she felt a continuous pang of heartache.

If it were just a taste, that would be fine, but now Zhang Xiaoshan is provoking her right in front of her, making Yaoyue recall every little detail of the inner demon world.

The more it hurts, the clearer the memories become; the clearer the memories, the more it hurts, creating an endless vicious cycle...

"Eating this will relieve your heartache!"

Zhang Xiaoshan took out a piece of Gelsemium elegans and handed it to Yaoyue.

Yaoyue, who should have been on high alert, only realized what was happening the moment she saw the Heartbreak Grass.

"Who wants this thing? I don't care."

"The poison of the love flower corrodes the bones and rots the heart."

Your senses had suddenly weakened; it seems you've fallen deeply in love. You've lost.

· ········Requesting flowers· ········

"I didn't lose!"

Yaoyue looked at Zhang Xiaoshan's 'evil' eyes with anger.

"who?"

Inviting the Moon's unwilling shout immediately attracted the attention of the disciples in the valley.

Looking at the two figures standing in the sea of ​​love flowers, Zhang Xiaoshan looked at Yaoyue and said:

"Alright, eat it and detoxify yourself first."

Take a few back with you, and do with them however you like.

"you···"

Yaoyue looked at the Heartbreak Grass in her hand. This thing was also highly poisonous, but she didn't expect it could cure the Love Flower poison.

Love blossoms, heartbreak.

Even Yaoyue couldn't help but sigh, it truly was a case of mutual generation and restraint.

puff!

After taking a bite of the Heartbreak Grass, Yaoyue spat out a mouthful of black blood due to the reaction of the two deadly poisons.

"I have been entrusted by Chief Qiu to find his sister, Qiu Qianchi. Here is also a letter that she gave to your Lady of the Valley."

what?

Upon seeing the letter Zhang Xiaoshan produced, the disciples exchanged bewildered glances.

They knew that the Valley Master's wife's name was indeed Qiu Qianchi, but she had been murdered and disappeared several months ago. They never expected that her family would come to deliver a message now.

........ ........ ...

"Please follow me, gentlemen!"

Seeing Zhang Xiaoshan casually toss the letter over, even though both were wearing masks, none of the disciples dared to make things difficult for them.

After all, this is the late lady's family. Even if they have some quirks, it doesn't give them any reason to neglect their guests.

Soon, Zhang Xiaoshan and Yaoyue were taken to a somewhat historic attic.

At the head of the hall, the dignified and imposing Gongsun Zhi held a letter.

With just a glance, he knew it was a handwritten letter from one of his brothers-in-law, and for a moment he felt a little nervous.

Keep in mind that at this time, his strength was only at the first-rate level, and that was only with the guidance of his wife.

But that brother-in-law was a top-notch expert, and even his first wife was at the highest level. If he hadn't secretly plotted against her, they wouldn't have been a match for that welding woman at all.

"Thank you both for delivering the message, but unfortunately, Sister Chi..."

"You ambushed me and sent me tumbling into the abyss, didn't you?"

what?

Upon hearing this, the disciples in the hall were all horrified.

They had already found the lady's mysterious disappearance strange, but they never expected that she had been ambushed and knocked into the abyss by the Valley Master.

"What do you mean, Your Excellency?"

"Hahaha, why do you think Chief Qiu sent us here so suddenly?"

"It was your sneak attack on Qiu Qianchi that was witnessed by your disciples in the valley. They secretly sent a message to the Iron Palm Clan, which is why Clan Leader Qiu sent us to avenge his sister."

"what?"

Upon hearing Zhang Xiaoshan's explanation, Gongsun Zhi's expression changed drastically.

Unexpectedly, what he thought was a closely guarded secret had already been seen by someone, and the Iron Palm Gang had been notified.

"who is it?"

With a furious glare and murderous intent, Gong Suzhi glared at the disciples below.

This reaction made Yaoyue frown. She hadn't expected that Gongsun Zhi would actually resort to underhanded tactics and kill his wife.

"The mistake has been made, and none of you will leave today!"

A fishing net formation!

Gongsun Zhi suddenly looked at Zhang Xiaoshan and Yaoyue again, his eyes revealing a sinister look.

His mistake wasn't killing Qiu Qianchi, but rather letting the news leak out.

Chapter 181 Dragon-Subduing Wood, Dragon Blood Vine, Dragon Saliva Fruit

"Gongsun Zhi, do you think Chief Qiu sent us here because he's afraid of you little wretches!"

Suddenly, Zhang Xiaoshan flicked his finger, and a stream of extremely cold and yin energy passed directly through Gongsun Zhi's body.

The extremely yin and cold energy, like a bone-deep infection, entered Gongsun Zhi's heart meridian.

In Zhang Xiaoshan's eyes, a mere first-rate expert was not even worth a sparring match; a single Xuanming Finger Force was enough to restrict Gongsun Zhi's entire abilities.

Not to mention that at this time, Gongsun Zhi's breath-holding technique was not yet fully mastered.

Even the most advanced level of breath-holding skill is as thin as rice paper and easily defeated by the Xuanming Finger Force.

"Spare me..."

In just three breaths, Gongsun Zhi's breath was so cold that it sent chills down everyone's spine.

Even the disciples inside the valley were terrified and retreated upon witnessing this scene.

Keep in mind that this was the Valley Master; he was rendered helpless without even seeing how the Valley Master made a move.

If they went up there, they would probably die even faster than "883".

Moreover, in this matter, it was their valley master who was in the wrong first, as he secretly plotted and killed his first wife.

Although Qiu Qianchi was domineering and arrogant, she was nothing more than one of the maids who had a close relationship with Gongsun Zhi.

It was Qiu Qianchi's spoiled, pampered nature, coupled with her suspicions during her pregnancy and Gongsun Zhi's infidelity, that led to this great disaster.

Ultimately, it comes down to a lack of ability.

If Zhang Xiaoshan were like Gongsun Zhi, he would have been ground to dust by Yaoyue long ago.

"Are there any cliffs or deep abysses nearby?"

Chief Qiu said, "Even if someone is dead, we must find the body."

"Yes! Yes! Please come with us, both of you."

Hearing Zhang Xiaoshan's words made them even more certain that he was definitely from the lady's family.

Even if the lady has been murdered, her body must be found and brought back.

This shows that the sentiment is absolutely sincere.

Only Yaoyue looked puzzled. Who was this person? Nobody gets up early for nothing!

Why would someone do this if there were no self-interest involved?

Soon, several disciples led Zhang Xiaoshan and Yaoyue to a cliff.
