"Old Divine Doctor Jiang, is there still hope for my father's health?"

Wenren Yage asked with a face full of worry.

More than seeking revenge, she was now more concerned about her father's health.

"Yes, I can perform some acupuncture and prescribe a formula. Just a week of recuperation and he'll be fine."

"Fortunately, you came early. If that person had treated him one more time, even I would have been powerless."

After speaking, Old Divine Doctor Jiang instructed the father and daughter to go to his room to prepare for Wenren Yuanshan's treatment.

"Thank you, Old Divine Doctor Jiang. The Wenren family will never forget your kindness today."

Wenren Yage quickly bowed in gratitude.

While her father was receiving acupuncture treatment, Wenren Yage stood outside the door with a face full of hatred, clenching her fists tightly.

Lu Junzhuo, how dare you humiliate the Wenren family like this!

She, Wenren Yage, swore she wouldn't rest until she avenged this!

However, thinking about her current lack of strength compared to him, she felt a bit frustrated.

In recent years, the Wenren family had declined significantly, mainly because of her father's incident.

The other experts in the family were now about the same strength as her, all stuck at the early stage of the Mystical Realm.

Even if they joined forces, their chances of defeating Lu Junzhuo were slim.

The difference between the peak of the Mystical Realm and its early stage was clear.

She began to devise a plan for revenge in her mind.

No matter what, she couldn't let him off easily!

...

At this moment, Lu Junzhuo was resting at the Wenren family residence.

After suffering a major setback a few days ago, he had finally recovered after two days in the hospital.

Once recovered, he returned to Suzhou and Hangzhou to rest at the Wenren family home.

He was also preparing to take over the Wenren family!

Ye Chen, that fool, was always thinking about making money from the four major families first.

He was different; he valued power more.

The Wenren family was his stepping stone to conquering the ancient martial arts forces in Suzhou and Hangzhou!

He was currently sitting by the artificial lake at the Wenren family residence, fishing and feeling quite pleased.

You could be reading stolen content. Head to Royal Road for the genuine story.

The treasure he had his eye on at the auction had already been photographed and sent over.

He was certain that the jade lion contained the Nine Revolutions Pill, a long-lost elixir!

The Dragon Soul organization had records about it!

For him, the Nine Revolutions Pill was immensely beneficial.

With it, he could break through to the Earth Realm in one go!

By then, that Tang kid would be dead for sure!

Why would he need to care about Tang's inexplicable power?

After killing him, he would even have his way with Tang's fiancée!

In doing so, he could also humiliate Ye Chen!

Therefore, he was determined to get this item, no matter how expensive it was!

...

Antique shop.

When Tang Yu arrived, the new manager of the shop was already waiting for him.

Ever since Zhao Gaoshen was sent to Antarctica, his replacement was a little old man, a knowledgeable expert.

"Young Master Tang."

Seeing Tang Yu arrive, he quickly greeted him respectfully.

He was very courteous to Tang Yu.

The previous manager, Mr. Zhao, reportedly helped Young Master Tang with something and received a billion-dollar reward.

He was even promoted to a position abroad!

Being able to work for Young Master Tang was a blessing cultivated over eight lifetimes.

"Old Master Peng, how's the jade lion I asked you to work on?"

Tang Yu asked with a smile.

"Oh, that. It's almost done, Young Master Tang. Take a look."

Old Master Peng quickly led the way.

A few days ago, he received a notification and a photo from Tang Yu.

He immediately gathered a few experts to carve the jade lion that Young Master Tang wanted.

After a few days of rush work, the finished product was ready, though it still had some minor flaws.

Seeing the coconut-sized jade lion, Tang Yu was quite satisfied.

Although the cost was high and required a lot of money, it wasn't a problem.

Even the mechanism beneath, the Nine Palace Lock, was perfectly replicated according to Tang Yu's requirements.

The original jade lion had a Nine Palace Lock mechanism beneath it.

And no one else could open it, only Dragon King Ye Chen could.

Damn it, Fortune's Chosen.

It seemed like all the good things in the world were prepared for him.

Fortunately, having read the original plot, Tang Yu remembered how to open it.

"That's good enough."

Satisfied with the finished product, Tang Yu instructed it to be packed up and sent to the auction.

He chuckled, "I'm not going to compete with you directly. I'll do a switcheroo!"

"Old Master Peng, here's a packet of medicinal powder. Please help me make it into pills."

"You can add something disgusting inside the pills, and then send it to Wanbao Building for auction."

After giving his instructions, Tang Yu patted the old man's shoulder and left with a laugh.

In the original plot, Dragon King Ye Chen also saw the Nine Revolutions Pill for the first time.

Now, with Lu Junzhuo, it should be the same.

And this packet of medicinal powder was specially concocted by him; it couldn't be identified by smell alone.

Without tasting it, no one would know it was poison!

Just like feces, you can see it and smell it, but unless you taste it, how can you assume it's feces?

"Something disgusting?"

Old Master Peng rubbed his bald head, using his decades of accumulated wisdom to ponder this question.

After a moment of thought, his gaze turned towards the restroom.

Once he completed the task assigned by Young Master Tang, Old Master Peng emerged from the restroom with a red face.

He had done such mischievous things as a child, and he never expected to relive his childhood innocence at his age.

He placed the processed pills inside the jade lion and personally delivered them to the Wanbao Building auction.

...

Two days passed in the blink of an eye.

The auction was held at the Sishui Villa in the suburbs.

Sishui Villa was located in a scenic spot by the mountains and water, a place where the city's wealthy often came to play.

Tang Yu was quite familiar with this place, and upon getting out of the car, he encountered many acquaintances.

"Hello, Young Master Tang."

"Oh, Young Master Tang is here too."

"What are you here to buy today, Young Master Tang? It's the first time I've seen you at an antique auction."

Many people greeted Tang Yu warmly.

After responding to a few, Tang Yu found it troublesome and quickly slipped into the villa.

As soon as he entered the main door, Tang Yu saw Wenren Yage.

Beside her was a handsome young man with a devilish smile, very similar to Dragon King Ye Chen.

However, his smile was on the right side, while Ye Chen's was on the left.

If their smiles were combined, it would be quite comical.

Strictly speaking, this was Lu Junzhuo's first time meeting Tang Yu with his own face.

So, upon seeing Tang Yu, he continued to smile confidently, not worried about being recognized by Tang Yu.

Striking from the shadows, delivering a fatal blow to the enemy, was his specialty!

It was also Tang Yu's first time seeing Lu Junzhuo's face.

Recognizing him immediately, Tang Yu couldn't help but glance at him a couple more times.

[This bastard, smiling just like Ye Chen.]

[If you put their mouths together and cross their eyes, hey, that would be something!]

Hearing Tang Yu's internal monologue, Wenren Yage's mouth twitched.

She now also found Lu Junzhuo's devilish smile a bit silly.

It was like he had a facial nerve problem.

After taking her father to receive treatment from Old Divine Doctor Jiang, she had been contemplating revenge for the past two days.

She decided not to rush it.

Take it slow, let him lower his guard, and then strike with a fatal blow!

Today, when Lu Junzhuo mentioned attending the auction to find some precious herbs for her father's treatment, she decided to accompany him alone.

All three of them deliberately avoided drawing attention to themselves, so they didn't greet each other.

Sitting in the front row, Tang Yu took out his phone to check.

Today, the Reaper Squad wasn't following; Lu Junzhuo had them doing something else.

After being beaten by the Reaper Squad last time, Lu Junzhuo had developed some resentment towards them.

As for suspicion, he hadn't reached that point yet.

Because the four of them had indeed loyally carried out his orders, and the beating was just a misunderstanding.
