Chapter 213 The Elder's Daughter
In addition, the valley master of Medicine Ghost Valley also went with them. The valley master of Medicine Ghost Valley has a great reputation. They collect all kinds of medicinal herbs.
They have a lot of medicinal herbs. Chen Feng had dealt with them before. Most of their medicinal herbs were bought from there. They were cheaper and had a wider variety.
After the five of them entered, the elder told them about some taboos of the Chen clan.
Chen Feng and the others had some things to manage. With their arrival, the Chen clan gradually increased their strength and gave them some power. So Chen Feng and the others each had their own things to do. Chen Feng then helped him by saying that they had opened several shops in Luoyang City. Originally, the elders wanted them to live here, but after hearing what Chen Feng said, they let them live outside. However, they still needed to come in for meetings and such.
After explaining these things, the elder let them leave, giving them a waist token, which was for the Chen clan.
The master of Medicine Ghost Valley is called Xie Sanshao. Xie Sanshao said to Chen Feng, "I remember you are the one who bought a large quantity of medicinal herbs last time. I heard that the Guose Tianxiang restaurant on this street is owned by you."
"Yes, I was the one who went to buy medicinal herbs a few days ago, and it was indeed for the 'National Beauty and Heavenly Fragrance' herb."
Upon hearing Chen Feng's words, the Valley Master of Medicine Ghost Valley said, "Oh, then we've already joined the Chen clan. In the future, when you come to buy medicinal herbs, I can give you a discount, since we're fellow disciples."
Chen Feng didn't stand on ceremony when he heard this and said thank you.
Afterwards, they returned to their respective residences. Chen Feng said to the remaining three, "The Valley Master of Medicine Ghost Valley has been very kind to us, but we still can't be wary of him. Now that he has joined the Chen Clan, he must have his own needs, so we can't let our guard down. Even though he has extended an olive branch to us, we can't just agree to it. He might be an informant for one of the elders."
Hua Wushang also felt it was inappropriate. She had lost to this person in a previous duel, which involved using poison. It was clear that this Valley Master's poison skills were superior to theirs, so they had to be even more careful. They had no way to deal with someone who used poison, since someone who used poison could fight against a hundred people, which was a terrifying thing.
Although Hua Wushang was also a master of poison, she was still a little inferior to the Valley Master of Yaogui Valley.
Moreover, the Valley Master of Medicine Ghost Valley has many poison experts under his command, so she can't let her guard down. Fortunately, He Fei is also an expert, so she should be able to stop him.
If the Valley Master of Medicine Ghost Valley is He Fei's mortal enemy, they need to be even more careful, as they don't know what tricks these people will use.
However, all four of them have now become members of the Chen clan. Although they have only just joined, he believes that with their strength, they will surely reach a certain level in the future and be able to help He Fei. However, he cannot acknowledge He Fei before that.
Not acknowledging them is for their own good. After all, those who oppose He Fei are in the shadows, while they are in the open. Until then, they should be extra careful. There are many people they need to be wary of. Their shop will surely shine brightly in the future.
During this time, the elders of the Chen clan invited Chen Feng and his group of five to attend a meeting. Through this meeting, Chen Feng and his companions learned that the elders were divided into three factions: the first was the priests, the second was the Grand Elder, and the third wanted his daughter to become a priest in the future.
Similarly, the Second Elder also hoped that his daughter would become a priestess.
Therefore, there are three factions in this Chen clan. Two elders check and balance each other, while the priests are controlled by them.
Chen Feng didn't know why, but it was probably because the Holy Maiden was young and had only returned in the last few years.
In the past few days, Chen Feng and He Yi have been investigating some things within the Chen clan.
He Yi also found out the family affairs of these elders of the Chen family.
The elder had a daughter named Chen Qin who was disabled in both legs.
Right here in Chen Qin's courtyard, she was enjoying the breeze.
Turning his head, he saw his personal maid walking towards him.
She was less a maid and more a spy sent by her father to monitor her.
"Miss, the medicine is ready."
"I see".
After saying this, Chen Qin sat in a wheelchair with the help of a maid, who then pushed her back.
Shortly after returning to the room, the maid brought the medicine.
Chen Qin took a light sniff, frowned slightly, but ultimately drank it down.
After taking her medicine, Chen Qin prepared to rest.
The maid left the room after Chen Qin had fallen asleep.
Chen Qin heard the door close before slowly opening her eyes and hearing the footsteps fading into the distance. Only then did she sit up.
She sat cross-legged with her eyes closed, her hands forming a strange gesture, each breath drawing in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
After a long while, she slowly exhaled a cloud of black gas with a slightly foul odor. This was the poison mixed into the medicine. Chen Qin opened her eyes, glanced at the wheelchair beside the bed, and a cold smile curled at the corner of her lips. Chen Qin, the eldest daughter of the Feng family, was confined to a wheelchair due to a leg ailment. Moreover, she was a useless person who couldn't cultivate spiritual power, but she wasn't entirely useless.
Although she was unable to cultivate, she possessed powerful spiritual strength, which is why she was protected from a young age.
Her father originally meant well for her, but later he changed his mind.
Her father's ambition led Chen Qin to overuse her mental energy, which is why she was able to completely control this body.
Chen Qin is no longer the same Chen Qin.
She looked at her legs and sighed helplessly.
These legs shouldn't be like this, but Chen Qin had drunk too much of that medicine before, and the toxins had accumulated in her legs. She could only use other methods to expel the toxins from these legs.
She took out a roll of something wrapped in cloth from a hidden compartment on the bed. When she unfolded it, she found it contained silver needles of various sizes.
Chen Qin skillfully and quickly inserted silver needles into acupoints on her legs. This was mainly to unblock blocked meridians. Chen Qin reached out and placed her hand on the silver needles. As she moved her hand, some black substance was pulled out through the needles. Each time, she could expel some accumulated toxins.
After putting away the silver needles, Chen Qin lay down. She was exhausted and needed rest. When Chen Qin woke up, it was already getting dark. The door was pushed open, and a maid came in and asked, "Miss, would you like some food?"
"Bring it up," she said, as she was also a little hungry. Just as Chen Qin was eating, a maid came in and said to her, "Miss, the master is looking for you."
"I'll be there shortly." Chen Qin ate a little, and then a maid pushed her to the elder's study.
"Father, what brings you here?" Chen Qin asked as soon as she saw the Grand Elder.
