205: Chapter 199: Evil Begets Evil_1 205: Chapter 199: Evil Begets Evil_1 Lu Chuan was montarily stunned; he had been wondering why the rapist had co here, but after hearing the man’s words, he instantly understood the other’s purpose.
The Dragon’s Whiskers Herb was known for its effects in nourishing the kidney and essence.
Though the rapist was strong, he evidently indulged excessively and had depleted his health.
His probable reason for seeking the Dragon’s Whiskers Herb was to restore his vitality.
Zhu Cheng’an and Zhu Keyan’s expressions both changed upon hearing the man’s words.
Zhu Cheng’an quickly sent Zhu Keyan a look, signaling her not to let anything slip.
Upon seeing the two’s reactions, a cold smile appeared on Lu Chuan’s face.
Seeing Lu Chuan’s expression, Zhu Cheng’an grew panicked and urgently sent a pleading look, begging him not to spout nonsense.
Lu Chuan completely ignored Zhu Cheng’an and said, “The Dragon’s Whiskers Herb has already been eaten by this woman.”
Upon hearing this, the man turned his head to look at Zhu Keyan, and upon realizing that the girl was pretty with soft, white skin, his eyes lit up, “You ate the Dragon’s Whiskers Herb?”
Full of fright, Zhu Keyan quickly shook her head, saying, “No… no, don’t listen to his nonsense; he is deliberately causing trouble for .”
Lu Chuan sneered and said, “You were quite forceful and domineering when you were taking things by force before, so how co you now dare not admit it?”
Zhu Keyan glared at Lu Chuan, feeling a murderous rage within her.
The man observed Zhu Keyan, stroked his chin, and said with a smile, “Forcibly taking and seizing…
tsk, let introduce myself, my na is Zhou Kun, and there’s nothing I despise more than those rich young ladies who bully others based on their family background.
Whenever I co across such people, I have to give them so punishnt.”
Completely flustered, Zhu Keyan was on the verge of tears as she insisted, “I…
I’m not that kind of person who uses power to bully others.
I’m beautiful and kind-hearted, I often do good deeds anonymously.
This guy is the shaless villain; you should punish him instead!”
Zhou Kun smiled and said, “I’m not interested in n.
Just tell , did you or did you not eat the Dragon’s Whiskers Herb?”
Zhu Keyan frantically shook her head, “I didn’t, he’s slandering !”
Zhou Kun said, “No matter, I’ll know whether you ate it or not just by sensing it.
I just want to see if you’re a truthful girl.
If you are, I naturally won’t lay a finger on you today, but if you’re full of lies, then I’ll have to teach you a lesson.”
Having said that, he reached for Zhu Keyan’s wrist and grabbed it.
Zhu Keyan was taken aback and was about to start explaining.
However, she saw Zhou Kun smile and say, “Little sister, you’re not being honest.
You clearly ate the Dragon’s Whiskers Herb, yet you lie to saying you didn’t.”
“Fortunately, I can still extract the dicinal effect of the Dragon’s Whiskers Herb from your body.
It just so happens you like to lie, to seize by force, to bully others.
You are exactly the type of target I hunt.
Co with !”
Zhu Keyan’s face was the picture of despair, “I was wrong, please let go, I’ll never lie again!”
She turned her head to Zhu Cheng’an and cried out, “Dad, save !”
Zhu Cheng’an was also frantic, saying, “Brother, please show rcy.
I am the Chairman of the Jiangbei Province Martial Arts Association.
As long as you let my daughter go, I can offer you any benefit you want.”
Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise crossed Zhou Kun’s face, “You are actually the Chairman of the Jiangbei Province Martial Arts Association.”
Seeing a glimr of hope, Zhu Cheng’an quickly said, “Indeed, I ask you to afford so face and let my daughter go.”
Zhou Kun curled his lips and said, “I’ve heard that you are a person of very poor character; don’t call brother, it disgusts .”
“Since you’re the Chairman of the Martial Arts Association, it suits my intention perfectly.
I love to take down the daughters of prominent people like you, especially when your character is also lacking.
It seems today is my lucky day.”
With that, he dragged Zhu Keyan away from the place, with all her pleas for rcy proving futile.
Zhu Cheng’an stood there, dumbfounded.
He never expected that revealing his identity would only strengthen Zhou Kun’s resolve to take his daughter away.
“Return my daughter to !” Zhu Cheng’an scread hysterically.
Unfortunately, Zhou Kun paid him no mind and quickly vanished from the restaurant with Zhu Keyan.
After Zhou Kun left, the oppressive presence in the private room also dissipated, and Lu Chuan and the others regained the ability to move.
Lu Chuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief; a Profound Realm skillful expert was still too frightening for him at the mont.
The feeling of being utterly powerless was despairing.
However, he also felt sowhat fortunate that Zhu Keyan had eaten the Dragon’s Whiskers Herb, for if it had ended up in his possession, Zhou Kun would have co for him, likely killing to seize the treasure.
Zhu Cheng’an regained his ability to move, looked at Lu Chuan with raging anger, and shouted hysterically, “You bastard!
If it weren’t for you, how could my daughter have been taken away?
I’ll kill you!”
Lu Chuan sneered and said, “This is just karma for the things you and your daughter have done; don’t play the bla ga.
And let remind you, this Zhou Kun is the infamous rapist who has been causing a stir lately.
the won who fall into his hands all end up as playthings.
You better hurry and think of a way to save your daughter!”
Zhu Cheng’an’s face instantly turned ashen when he heard this.
He looked at Lu Chuan with hatred in his eyes but ultimately just viciously flung his sleeves and shouted, “You just wait, we will settle our account later!”
Then he hurried out of the private room to chase after Zhou Kun.
Lu Chuan pursed his lips and said, “Good will be rewarded with good, and evil with evil.
It seems this saying really holds true.”
Yu Qingfeng, standing beside him, nodded in agreent, “They truly got what they deserved.
If they hadn’t engaged in such oppressive acts, they wouldn’t have encountered this trouble.”
Lu Chuan sighed and said, “But it’s a sha that we finally got our hands on the Dragon’s Whiskers Herb, and now it’s gone.”
Yu Qingfeng appeared sowhat apologetic as he said, “This is also my fault.
If I had taken care of confidentiality, this wouldn’t have happened.”
Lu Chuan smiled and said, “Senior Yu, you’re being too hard on yourself.
The only one to bla is that shaless Chairman of the Martial Arts Association; it has nothing to do with you.”
Yu Qingfeng thought for a mont, then said, “I’ll be transferred to the Censorate Departnt Headquarters soon, and when that happens, I’ll have access to more resources.
If there is any news about the Dragon’s Whiskers Herb, I promise to notify you imdiately.”
Lu Chuan gave a formal bow of thanks, “Then I must thank Senior Yu.”
He was not sure if by then he would still need the Dragon’s Whiskers Herb.
The two didn’t say much more and left the restaurant.
Back at Hanging Gourd dical Hall, Lu Chuan shared the matter of the Dragon’s Whiskers Herb with Mu Nanqing, Suzumiya Ichikazu, and Su Ming.
Suzumiya Ichikazu said angrily, “That Zhu Cheng’an is too despicable!
The Dragon’s Whiskers Herb should rightfully belong to Big Brother Lu Chuan.
What right do they have to snatch it away!”
Following him, Mu Nanqing added, “This pair of father and daughter are indeed quite despicable, but this also turned out to be a blessing in disguise.
Fortunately, that haughty miss consud the Dragon’s Whiskers Herb, which attracted the attention of the rapist; otherwise, Xiaochuan would have been the unfortunate one.”
Su Ming pondered and said, “In other words, if Zhu Keyan hadn’t consud the Dragon’s Whiskers Herb, the rapist would have gone after my big brother?”
Lu Chuan kicked him, “Has your head been squeezed by a door?
Does your family’s rapist even target n?”
Su Ming chuckled sheepishly, “What if, after all, everyone is under a lot of stress in today’s society, and anybody can have so special fetishes?”
Suzumiya Ichikazu sneaked a glance at Lu Chuan and asked timidly, “With the Dragon’s Whiskers Herb gone, doesn’t that leave only that one thod of obtaining the dragon vein, Big Brother Lu Chuan, you…”
Lu Chuan asked with a smile, “What, are you hoping that I resort to that thod?”
The face of Suzumiya Ichikazu instantly turned red, and she stamred, “No…
not at all.
I’m just anxious to help Big Brother Lu Chuan get the dragon vein.
If there really is no other way, then I can only…”
Mu Nanqing looked at them with a face full of suspicion, feeling as if their conversation had a hidden ssage, and asked, “What are you two talking about?
What thod are you referring to?”
Suzumiya Ichikazu quickly said, “Nothing, nothing, Sister Nanqing, please don’t get the wrong idea, Ichi has only ever liked Sister Nangong…”
After saying that, she wrapped her arm around Mu Nanqing’s and rubbed her head against it, acting coquettishly.
Su Ming clicked his tongue in wonder, “Big brother, see what I an?
I’ve been telling you the stress of modern society is making everyone a bit deviant.
Here’s a case in point.”
Suzumiya Ichikazu glared at Su Ming, “Who are you calling deviant!
My love for Sister Nanqing is pure, not as dirty as you think!”
Su Ming smirked, “Really?
Then who was it begging my sister-in-law to share a bed together at night?”
Suzumiya Ichikazu, her face flaming, retorted angrily, “You shaless!
Eavesdropping on my conversation with Sister Nanqing!”
Su Ming replied, “I didn’t eavesdrop, you were just talking too loud.”
Mu Nanqing’s cheeks also flushed with embarrassnt, rembering Suzumiya Ichikazu’s restless behavior at night, making her feel ashad.
It was all because the tea she last brewed for Lu Chuan was accidentally drunk by Suzumiya Ichikazu, and since that incident, Ichikazu had discovered new territory.
Every night, she would sneak into her bed and her hands weren’t the least bit idle, causing Mu Nanqing to start feeling flustered.
Lu Chuan, bemused by these three characters, said, “The Dragon’s Whiskers Herb is not the only thod.
Dragons are fond of water, so to extract the dragon vein from your body, one could also soak in a special dicinal solution, causing it to willingly transfer from your body to the solution, allowing to absorb it.”
“However, this thod is much slower, and the soaking solution must contain abundant spiritual energy.
I still have so hundred-year dicinal herbs, but the water used to make the solution must be a special spiritual water for it to be effective.”
“This kind of spiritual water is much easier to find than the Dragon’s Whiskers Herb.
I’ll ask around later to see where I can get so.”
On hearing this, Su Ming quickly asked, “Does the water from a spring that has absorbed the essence of the sun and moon, and beco sowhat special, count as spiritual water?”
Lu Chuan nodded, “Of course, the spiritual water I’m referring to doesn’t need to be very high-level, it just needs to have certain special properties.”
Su Ming said, “In that case, I know of a place called Moon Natural Spring.
The spring water that erges from there is very unusual.
Drinking it can even enhance one’s physique and ward off all diseases.
Moreover, the spring water from Moon Natural Spring is peculiar as it only possesses spiritual qualities when collected at night with the moon present.
If you collect it during the day, it is just ordinary spring water.”
“Moon Natural Spring is located on the outskirts of Cloud City, I read about it in the archives of the Profound Sect.”
Lu Chuan’s eyes lit up upon hearing this, and he quickly said, “Tell the exact location of this Moon Natural Spring.”
Su Ming did so without hesitation.
Lu Chuan glanced at the ti.
If he headed for the outskirts now, he would arrive by nightfall, and the weather forecast predicted clear skies, allowing for a bright moon.
Without hesitation, Lu Chuan gave Su Ming a few instructions, took a bucket taller than a person, placed it inside the Demon Suppression Pagoda, and then set off toward the outskirts.
After so searching, Lu Chuan finally found the Moon Natural Spring described by Su Ming at nine o’clock at night, just as the moon was at its brightest.
Even from a distance, he could feel the abundant spiritual energy in front of him, which even contained a trace of the essence of heaven and earth.
This confird what Su Ming had said was true.
He made his way through the underbrush and finally arrived at the edge of Moon Natural Spring.
Under the moonlight, the spring water shimred.
This was the spiritual water Lu Chuan needed!
But before he could collect any water, he saw in the middle of the spring a woman with fair skin and a remarkable figure, completely naked, gently wiping her body.
The first thought that ca to Lu Chuan’s mind upon seeing this woman was: rich and generous.
In the moonlight, her enchanting body appeared even more seductive, making Lu Chuan’s mouth go dry.
