The village beauty and me!

Chen Huan's words immediately surprised the woman in the white vest.

What followed was deep-seated doubt.

He glared coldly at Chen Huan and questioned, "You're really that kind?"

Chen Huan shrugged. "Think what you want."

"However, your current situation doesn't allow you much time to consider this."

"Either submit to me obediently, accept my help, and preserve the last bit of life for your Ouyang family."

"Or, the entire Ouyang family will be wiped out in an instant."

"This medicinal herb cultivation base that you risked your lives to protect will also become someone else's wealth."

"And Ma Yingjun, who caused all of this, is now living a carefree life overseas."

"They might even say with disdain, 'The Ouyang family is incredibly stupid,' after they learn about this place."

Chen Huan's words turned the woman in the white vest pale.

After quickly exchanging glances with the people around him, he frowned and replied, "Even if I believe you, so many people want our lives and want to seize the resources here. What makes you think you can protect us?"

Chen Huan grinned, "Just because of my name, Chen Huan."

At this moment, the people who had come to attack Chen Huan all looked at him with hostility and fear.

Just as Zhao Yaru and Huang Yanyan had said before.

At this time in Dongjiang City, the name Chen Huan was practically a household name, as famous as the sun at its zenith.

Anyone with a bit of influence or ability knows Chen Huan.

After all, the biggest reason why the Ma family, who used to be able to control everything in Dongjiang City, suddenly fell from power was because they had offended Chen Huan.

This is now an open secret in Dongjiang City.

Chen Huan narrowed his eyes and scanned the area, unconsciously exuding an aura of power.

Although those people were some distance apart, they all felt a sudden tightness in their hearts at that moment.

I inevitably felt a little bit of pressure.

Seeing their tense expressions, Chen Huan chuckled and said, "How about we give each other face and let's leave it at that for today?"

"I, Chen Huan, thank you in advance."

A moment of silence fell over everyone; no one objected.

Seeing this, the woman in the white vest from the Ouyang family couldn't help but have a burning desire in her eyes.

He muttered to himself, "Whatever this guy's motives, it seems he's the only one who can save us tonight."

But her joy didn't last long.

Suddenly, someone in the crowd shouted, "So what if you're Chen Huan?"

  

"Rumor has it that you have some ability, but the reason why the Ma family fell was simply because their fate had run out."

"Now that you're all alone, you don't really think you're in charge here tonight, do you?"

Once such a voice appeared, the others around also began to feel more confident and were eager to make their move.

Chen Huan grinned and pointed outside, "Guess why Ma Yingjun was willing to give you such a big gift, revealing the Ouyang family's secret base to you."

"And they even specifically sought out an expert who calculated that by the time the moon is full tonight, the Ouyang family's poison array will be mostly dissipated, giving you an opportunity to take advantage?"

"Take another guess, will this poison array keep dissipating?"

When Chen Huan finished speaking, the people in front of him began to panic again.

People began to look towards the place where the poisonous gas had been gathered in the distance.

Chen Huan pointed to the sky again, "Soon, when the clouds cover the moon, the feng shui here will change once more."

"At that time, the toxins will regroup and become even more ferocious and terrifying than before."

"Even if you kill members of the Ouyang family and steal their things during this period, if there is no way to cure the poison or save your lives, no one can escape."

"The entire herb-producing base will be enveloped in toxins. Even if you dig three feet into the ground and hide in a hole, you will still not escape death in the end."

"They will be buried with the entire Ouyang family!"

"In the end, all Ma Yingjun needs to do is wait until you're all dead, and then choose a suitable time to come here and reap the benefits."

At that moment, someone else shouted in a shrill voice, "It's not as scary as you say, is it?"

"You're definitely trying to scare people."

Chen Huan shrugged. "You'll find out soon enough whether it's just a scare tactic or not."

"However, it may not be so easy to finish this quickly. Although the Ouyang family does not have many people left, they are all true experts. It should not be a problem to stall for time."

"Really, young lady? By the way, what's your name?"

The woman in the white vest opposite her immediately replied, "My name is Ouyang Hongyu. You're right. The poison array will be activated again soon. Before that, no one will leave alive."

The remaining members of the Ouyang family also shouted in unison, "We'd rather die together! You who kill the Ouyang family members won't have a good life!"

This made those who wanted to besiege the area even more panicked.

Originally, I was thinking that if all else failed, I could capture two members of the Ouyang family and force them to hand over the antidote or a way to escape.

But now that Chen Huan has intervened, he has given the Ouyang family endless confidence, to the point that they are all determined to fight to the death.

In this situation, no one can guarantee a successful strike.

The moonlight streaming down from the sky began to dim.

Finally, someone couldn't hold on any longer and immediately ran towards the outer perimeter.

Once a loophole is created in this kind of thing, and once someone takes the lead and sets an example, the rest of the people will naturally follow suit and imitate it.

In less than five minutes, everyone who wanted a piece of the pie at this base gave up the idea.

Filled with resentment and anger, the entire group withdrew.

At this moment, Ouyang Hongyu's body went limp and she was about to collapse.

People nearby quickly helped him up and called out anxiously.

Chen Huan frowned and slowly approached, saying, "She has too many wounds on her body. She has been holding on until now, and she is already exhausted."

"In addition, he was too ruthless in using poison, which led to him being poisoned by the poison itself."

"If you don't treat him quickly, I'm afraid he might not survive."

The Ouyang family was in a state of panic.

They could analyze that Chen Huan was right and also wanted to save Ouyang Hongyu.

Unfortunately, Ouyang Hongyu was poisoned by a mixed poison that he himself had concocted. Although the others were all experts in using poison, they had no way of analyzing how to cure this mixed poison in a short period of time.

Moreover, Ouyang Hongyu already had enough injuries, so even if the poison could be cured, it would inevitably cause secondary damage.

Therefore, in the eyes of the remaining members of the Ouyang family, Ouyang Hongyu's current fate is almost certain to be death.

However, some people were astute enough to immediately see the deeper meaning in Chen Huan's eyes as he approached.

"Chen Huan, is it? If you're willing to save Hongyu's life, and considering the favor you showed us by helping us out tonight, from now on, the rest of us, representing the entire Ouyang family, are willing to submit to you!"

"From now on, I will serve you faithfully, through fire and water!"
