Chapter 702 Unraveling the Mystery 2
Yunxi paused here, glanced at the Su brothers, and then, under their gaze, said quietly:

"So the height of summer did not fall."

Upon hearing this, not only Su Miao, but even Su Jing couldn't control his expression, a look of surprise flashing in his eyes.

Su Mu blurted out:
"How do you know?"

Yunxi stroked Lili's head and said:

"My guess."

The courtyard fell silent, but the atmosphere was even more tense than before. The only relaxed one was Yunxi, who idly stroked Lili's head, waiting to see what the two would do next.

Su Jing sighed, breaking the eerie atmosphere in the courtyard, and then cupped his hands in greeting:
"Fellow Daoist Ranxi, my brothers and I have come to your door today to ask you to save Shengxia's life."

Yunxi said calmly:
“Fellow Daoist Su, you should have the right attitude when asking for help. You invited me to the Su family's territory under the pretext of my mother, just so you could use my mother to control me and force me to do everything in my power to save Sheng Xia.”

If I were to enter the Su family's territory, I would truly become a fish on a chopping board, forced to do whatever you say, not only for my mother's sake but also to save my own life. Your plan is well-conceived, but unfortunately, I don't like being threatened. I prefer to nip any potential threats in the bud.

After speaking, he glanced coldly at Su Miao and Su Jing and snorted.

Su Jing hadn't expected his Daoist partner's daughter to be so intelligent and also so difficult to deal with. Although she hadn't guessed all of their plans correctly, she had guessed about 70%. However, for Sheng Xia's sake, he had no choice but to compromise, so he cupped his hands and said:

"Fellow Daoist Ranxi, what do you intend to do?"

"Bring Feng Jiayun to the Medical Immortal Sect to see me. I can check on Sheng Xia's condition, but I cannot guarantee that I can cure her. I can only make a judgment after seeing her in person."

Su Miao gritted his teeth and said:

What if we disagree?

"It's alright, I haven't suffered any losses anyway. And don't even think about getting your ancestor to arrest me and take me to the Su family. I have my ancestor protecting me. If you dare to scheme against me, I will make sure the Su family is infamous."

"Don't you care about your mother at all?"

Su Mu still wanted to try.

Yunxi smiled calmly and said:
“Aside from blood ties, the bond between my mother and me is not deep. Besides, she already has a new Daoist partner and has given birth to a son for your brother. If Su Zisheng can’t even protect his own mother, he doesn’t deserve to live.”

The last sentence made Su Miao and Su Jing's expressions change. They both knew that this was Ran Xi's threat. They threatened her with their mother, and she threatened them with her son's (nephew's) life. Then they would see who was more cunning.

Yunxi's smile widened further, and she changed the subject:

"Do you know why the Immortal Healer Sect treats me with such courtesy? Besides my strength, it's also because I inherited the complete legacy of the Immortal Healer Sect. The founding ancestor of the Immortal Healer Sect was skilled in both medicine and poison, but the Immortal Healer Sect in the Spirit Realm has lost its legacy of poison techniques for self-preservation, which is why it is in such a passive position."

As if realizing something, Su Jing pulled Su Miao and slipped away to the courtyard gate.

Yunxi laughed and said:

"Su Jing, Su Miao, my spiritual tea isn't that delicious."

The Su brothers immediately began to examine themselves, but found no signs of poisoning.

Yunxi, however, picked up the spirit tea in front of the two of them and drank it all in one gulp. After putting down the cup, she said:
"I'll give you five days to bring Feng Jiayun to see me."

Su Jing said with a stern face:

"If you dare to poison us, the Su family will not let you off the hook."

"I'm waiting. I just don't know whether your Su family will come looking for me first, or whether you will perish first."

"Stop threatening me. It's more practical to go back and pick them up. Five days is the time it takes for the poison to take effect. I can guarantee that once it takes effect, even a miracle won't save you unless you dissipate your cultivation. But once your cultivation is gone, you'll only have one path left: old age and death."

Su Mu said through gritted teeth:
"Wei Yunxi, you are truly vicious."

Yunxi stood up with Lili in her arms and said, "Didn't you plot against me first? I was just retaliating. What kind of reclusive family would resort to such underhanded tactics?"
You could have made your request openly and honestly, or even used my mother's emotions to your advantage—I could have accepted that. But you chose to use threats to achieve your goal, and I hate being threatened!

After saying that, Yunxi waved her sleeve and swept the two of them out of the courtyard without any politeness.

Su Jing and Su Miao exchanged a glance, and finally turned and left Yingke Peak. However, they did not leave the Medical Immortal Sect, but went to see Chen Yebai. Yun Xi knew their purpose and did not stop them. She even sat leisurely in the courtyard and waited.

Dian Dian popped out of the spirit beast pouch, waving its arms and legs excitedly as it said:
"Master is mighty!"

Lili flicked her tail and said:

"Your Majesty, will your subject Ye Bai intervene? What if he manages to cure your poison?"

Yun Xi laughed and said:

"I didn't actually poison him, so how can Chen Yebai find an antidote?"

"You didn't poison it?"

This time, Dian Dian and Li Li were surprised.

"It's just to scare them, so I can see my mother as quickly as possible."

"I see. I guess they went to see Your Majesty to verify whether what you said is true."

Lili swung her thick tail.

"We'll find out later."

After an incense stick's time, You Zisang arrived at Welcoming Guest Peak. Upon seeing the leisurely Yun Xi, she said with some helplessness:

"Fellow Daoist Ranxi, I heard that you poisoned the Su brothers. The Ancestor investigated for a long time but couldn't find out what kind of poison it was."

Yunxi gestured for the other person to sit down, then asked with a smile:

"What did Your Majesty say to them?"

You Zisang coughed lightly and said:
"The ancestor said that you are the only one who inherited the poison techniques of the Immortal Medicine Sect. There are indeed poisons that are colorless, odorless, and even impossible to detect. Just because he can't detect them doesn't mean that they haven't been poisoned."

So persuade them to do as you ask, since your request isn't unreasonable. The ancestor guarantees that if they do as you say, he will definitely persuade you to remove the poison from their bodies.

Upon hearing this, Yunxi smiled, revealing a pair of dimples, and said with a smile:

"Thank you for your support, Ancestor. I will compile the information on the inheritance of poison techniques and present it to you with both hands when the time comes."

You Zisang nodded, then whispered:

"Ranxi, you didn't poison them at all; you're just trying to scare them."

Yunxi readily admitted:

"Yes! Chen Zhenzun must have seen it at a glance, but he was willing to cooperate with me. Only the ancestor's ambiguous words could make them believe it without a doubt. Who told them to threaten me with my mother? They even bullied me because of my low cultivation level and tried to forcibly take me to the Su family. Their domineering behavior is annoying."

"You!"

You Zisang shook her head helplessly, then instructed her to stay at the Medical Immortal Sect for the time being before leaving Yingke Peak.

As soon as You Zisang left, Bing Li seized the opportunity to enter Yun Xi's courtyard and asked with a gossipy look:

"So, has it gone well? Has everything been agreed upon?"
