The Emperor God Wife Is Naughty
168. Shi Family

Since the deal had taken place, Shi Yang had Xie Ruo stay at his residence as well as bring his mother's corpse to be examined. Xie Ruo agreed unconditionally. After all, it was advantageous for him to have a temporary residence without spending any money.

Xie Ruo kept taking Lan Xuanyi's corpse into the space ring, then replacing it with an illusion that seemed very real. They also left home.

But before leaving, Xie Ruo looked at Shi Yang with doubt. Was it true that Shi Yang was alone? After all, Shi Yang was an ordinary human.

In the end, Xie Ruo did not ask at all as long as he followed the girl away to the residence. His gaze was blank, using a cane as an aid to feel and find a way. Xie Ruo was still somewhat doubtful that Shi Yang could actually direct him to the appropriate place.

"Miss, I don't know your name yet." Shi Yang did not know how to call her.

"Xie Ruo." Xie Ruo did not hide his name. Who knows that name?

"Your name is similar to the Goddess of the Holy Tower."

Xie Ruo glanced at him in disbelief. The goddess? Since when did he get the nickname abal-abal? Even in the Holy Tower, he got no nicknames and was always called by his little name.

"Is he that famous? To my knowledge, in the Holy Tower there is absolutely no goddess." Xie Ruo tries to figure out how famous she is and why she is called a goddess. Previously, she had indeed intentionally made her name come out as the Miss of the Xie Clan other than Xie Ran. But who would have thought it would be that bad.

"Although not a goddess, people say she is as beautiful as a goddess."

"really?" Xie Ruo smiled proudly while holding his face that was decorated with ugly embellishments.

"That's what people say. It all started a few years ago since Xie Ran was rumored to die. The position of the chairman fell into Xie Ruo's hands if he returned later. Since Xie Ran was so beautiful, everyone speculated her twin must have been very beautiful as well, let alone grown up in the Holy Tower since childhood. His temperament would also be better than Xie Ran, then his strength would also definitely not be less powerful. Xie Ran was very famous for his actions in the Xie Clan and resigned bravely, not even fearing the Emperor. Of course when the news about Xie Ruo spread, many were curious and spread many rumors to call her a goddess."

"Sheboh that ...." Xie Ruo felt somewhat astonished. Why are people in this age so excited like Mei Liena? They're weird. "I know him well, he's not what's rumored."

"really? Are you from the Holy Tower? But ... Your aura is not felt. Your names are the same."

Xue Ruo started thinking how to cover up identity. "I've only seen him once, but I know him well. He ... was just someone who liked to eat and troubled many members of the Holy Tower, he liked to break the rules. He was famous for his always-out-of-the-rule attitude and punished seniors, otherwise, where could he possibly become so famous?"

"Isn't she the Queen disciple of the Holy Tower? How could it be so careless?" Shi Yang could not believe it.

"If you go to the Holy Tower and ask the disciples there, they will say the same. Besides being beautiful and strong, her temperament was worse than Xie Ran."

"So bad?"

"Very bad. He is easily angered by small things and will teach a lesson to anyone who annoys him. He was a bloodthirsty tyrant, even killing with a smile without blinking since childhood. Don't be idolized."

Shi Yang was silent for a while, then frowned. "You're tricking me? If her attitude was like that, mena might people call her a goddess?"

"Because they don't know. After all, not all goddesses have graceful nature, some are crazy to want to destroy a city and always make things difficult for people."

Xie Ruo subconsciously insinuated a certain goddess who was relaxing on the mountain to make him sneeze very hard.

It took a while for Shi Yang to speak after hearing Xie Ruo's words which seemed as if he really wanted to hate 'Xie Ruo'.

"Why do I feel, you know him so well."

Xie Ruo snorted. "I told you, I know him very well."

"If you behave like that, I'm afraid I misunderstood that you are Xie Ruo from the Holy Tower."

Xie Ruo chuckled. "I am from another world," he murmured in a voice so low that Shi Yang could not hear it.

Through a path that only Shi Yang knew, they finally arrived at a dilapidated mansion. This situation really felt like nostalgia for Xie Ruo.

They went inside. Originally Xie Ruo thought that they would be strayed, but it turned out that Shi Yang pointed the way properly as if he could see.

When viewed from his sight, there was no way Shi Yang would pretend to be blind. He could sense the different spiritual auras around him, surely that was what made Shi Yang able to sense and remember each path properly. It was the same as the condition Xie Ruo used to be in. Unfortunately, Shi Yang's cultivation was still low. He understands that.

He placed Lan Xuanyi's corpse onto the bed Shi Yang pointed out. Xie Ruo used his magic to preserve Lan Xuanyi's corpse, clearing out all the remaining blood in his body and adding a corpse preservation technique.

Xie Ruo walked out after the process was completed, meeting Shi Yang who was waiting at the doorstep.

"You previously said blind isn't a hassle, what does that mean?" Shi Yang wanted to know. Does the woman in front of him have a solution in order to make him see? But, he was blind from birth, how could that be done?

"Although I can't make you see the world, I can make you imagine the world. I see your cultivation has already reached the early professional, not bad."

Shi Yang was embarrassed to hear it. He felt his cultivation was very bad. "That's not a proud thing."

"Your age is 18 years old, your talent is not bad for an ordinary human, let alone living a difficult life and having to survive in the middle of a poison storm. If trained more seriously, your cultivation speed will increase." Based on what Xie Ruo knew, Shi Yang had an unusual constitution, but the pay was sight. It seemed like Lan Xuanyi was no ordinary person either.

Xie Ruo grabbed Shi Yang's arm, checking his pulse. He smiled slanted. "Luckily your body is anti-poison, or you've been dead since the beginning."

"I'm poisoned?"

Xie Ruo had studied medicine a little with Mei Liena and in the Holy Tower, but he did not go too deep because the time was too short. He could only know basic things like poisoning, meridian and dantian problems, and minor illnesses. For poison, he was good at poison because of the lessons of the past.

But to make medicine, that wasn't his forte. He could only treat using spiritual power for wounds that were not too serious.

"The poison that just disappeared from your body recently is not the same poison as Lan Xuanyi. It's supposed to be a long-term poison that can shorten your life and die suddenly like a heart attack, not terrible."

Not terrible for Xie Ruo, but terrible for Shi Yang. The girl wondered why Xie Ruo so easily said things about life and death.

But Shi Yang did not want to think of Xie Ruo's way of thinking. Hearing that he was poisoned and lucky that the poison did not affect him, he felt indignant. He guessed who would do such a thing.

"Do you know who did it? Then, choose whether you will reply or not. I'm not interfering." Xie Ruo shook his shoulders. He did not want to involve the problems of ordinary people because his main purpose of coming here was to research the poison and its source.

Since the poison was connected to the Shi Family, he had to get to know the Shi Family further and determine the origin of the poison. Through Shi Yang, he had reason to approach the Shi Family. Although he is not interested in family conflict, he can take advantage of family conflict to find the mastermind. Shi Yang was the right person to use.

"That Lu surname .. I will repay you." Shi Yang had been affected and gripped his fist tightly. For years he harbored for helplessness, now he must not hold it anymore.

"Good choice." Ah, Xie Ruo feels like she's back as Isabella. He remembers doing the same thing with Gwen, his little 'cousin.

"Are you going to help me?"

"I won't interfere in family conflicts, but I can train you. Do you believe me?"

"We just met, it takes time to believe in someone. Making a mutually beneficial deal just broke my limits." Shi Yang refused to believe it. His trust in Xie Ruo had yet to achieve the trust that should have been placed in the closest person.

After all, Xie Ruo was still a stranger. That was why he had Xie Ruo stay at his house to be within his reach to be monitored.

Xie Ruo smiled widely. "You are reliable." He prefers someone who does not trust strangers easily. In that case, he should put in a little more effort to earn Shi Yang's trust. All this for the sake of his mission.

Lan Xuanyi's death was just like the traits Zhong Xiaorong described. The body was dried up and was already like a bone, it was not a surprise since he had seen it last night. In addition, there are many black spots on each part of the body. He thought it was a poison effect.

The black spot felt cold to the touch. Feels cold, but makes Xie Ruo gloves porous as if burned so it must be replaced. This is the same as a cold fire.

If exposed to the skin, it looks like the poison will be contagious. No one dares to be close together, let alone touch it for cleaning.

"This poison .. is quite interesting." Xie Ruo remained calm while turning the small blade in his hand.

He slashed his left chest to look. Since there was no blood, his hands were not moistened by blood. The heart that had stopped was blackened and rotten. It was seen that it was decaying a long time ago, coinciding with Lan Xuanyi's poisoning.

In addition to the heart, the lungs are also blackened. If this was the Modern World, he would probably think that this one woman smoked or used illicit drugs until overdosed. Unfortunately, it can only be caused by a respiratory illness.

Apparently, not only the heart, but also other organs. The toxin slowly shuts down the organ system and decomposes it during the long-acting toxic process. Starting from the lungs which means the poison enters through breathing, then propagates to other organs.

A person will experience shortness of breath and think that it is just an ordinary pain. As time goes on, he will have a heart attack periodically without killing him when the poison has reached the heart. All the meridians and arteries were closed, the condition muscles died causing him to be completely paralyzed.

Even though his nerve muscles died, he could still feel pain throughout his organs. Maybe he will also get sick when breathing because his lungs rotted a long time ago.

Because of this, he had trouble breathing and his heart was no longer working properly. It will die in a dry state due to malfunctioning organs, as well as a heart that stops suddenly.

After death, the poison will settle through the skin and make black stains in some parts of the body where the organs have decayed such as the left chest, stomach, heartburn, and waist. When the poison settles, the originally red blood-like poison turns black without the process being completed and is ready to transmit anyone who touches it.

Xie Ruo had brought the red-colored poison that Pei Xi had given as a sample. Distinguishing from black poison residue deposits, they have slightly different properties.

The black-colored poison is so corrosive and damages the skin. He didn't know what the effect was because there were no victims who were exposed to the poison deposits here. But he was sure that their deaths were the same. Maybe the suffering and the way it spreads will be a little different.

Since there was no microscope or advanced laboratory tool, he could only examine it using spiritual power. Although it was a bit complicated from having to carefully take a sample and freeze it in cold flames, then controlling it from being destroyed, he managed to do so.

The process took several days so Xie Ruo shut himself up with Lan Xuanyi's corpse for a full day. After all, Xie Ruo still ate three meals a day using the food contained in the space ring. There was no way he would ask Shi Yang to cook for him.

After learning how to transmit and how a person can be exposed to the poison, he finally completed an autopsy. Sew Lan Xuanyi's skin, then get out of the room.

People of this age only do the examination in the physical part only, not in so as not to know what happened to the victim more deeply. The poison has no cure.

Since Xie Ruo knew all the causes of the poison, he could ask Mei Liena for help to make an antidote so that there would be no more casualties. Although this process would be very long and would also have to research the two toxins further, at least this disaster was resolved. If left unchecked, there will be an outbreak.

This poison reminded him of the poison in Shuiyang City. Looks like Mei Liena was right, all this has to do with 'her'.

Just as Xie Ruo walked out of the room after a long time, he heard a noise from outside. Sounds like a man's voice is angry, also a woman's voice that sounds irritating. I don't know what happened to Shi Yang.

Out there, a tall and burly man with his soul face bullied Shi Yang using a bass voice that caused his voice to sound all the way outside the residence.

Beside him was a beautiful woman, looking quite young and seemingly as beautiful as Xie Ruo. He put on a bitter face with a wrinkled forehead, looking at Shi Yang dislike.

"Shi Yang, I've warned you not to disturb Shi Wei and humiliate him. Shi's family should have no disabled people, and you shouldn't have walked out of the residence unless you cut ties!" The man, Shi Muyue said in his suffocating bass voice.

Shi Yang simply stayed on the spot in a forced kneeling state, he did not say anything. Why if it's defective? Even the outsider said that blind was not a hassle, why did his own family scorn him?

"Master, I told you Shi Yang has an unlucky star. Even Big Brother Lan had left because of it, now she wanted to make Shi Wei have some misfortune. Just as he had almost harmed Shi Wei, you should give Shi Wei justice." That woman, Lu Xijue, Shi Yang's stepmother.

Lu Xijue used to be a friend of Lan Xuanyi and came from a low-class family. Her position increased after teasing Shi Muyue and becoming a concubine five years ago. She looked beautiful and seductive, let alone her age was the same as Xie Ruo who was still two heads.

"While I'm not Shi Wei's biological mother, I'm still worried about her safety. Yi'er was very familiar with Shi Wei, he would be sad if anything happened to Shi Wei." Lu Xijue put on a pitiful face. If Shi Yang could see, perhaps he would curse the woman.

Shi Wei was from Shi Muyue's first wife who had died in childbirth. When Shi Muyue remarried to Lan Xuanyi, Lu Xijue followed along as caretaker and took care of Shi Wei. It was only natural that Lu Xijue had earned Shi Muyue's confidence that he was worried about Shi Wei.

Basically Shi Muyue loved Lan Xuanyi. But he was instigated by Lu Xijue, saying that Shi Yang was a pesky star-bearer who was born blind. Because Lan Xuanyi was protecting him, Lan Xuanyi was unlucky and died of an infectious disease.

Especially when Lan Xuanyi was sick, Shi Yang was always with her. It made Shi Muyue's chaotic thoughts uncontrollable and trusted Lu Xijue.

Looking at Shi Yang, Shi Muyue's gaze was filled with hatred. "Shi Yang, are you mute or don't want to talk? Quickly apologize and go back inside the residence to reflect on your mistakes! If I refute, I'll teach you how to be self-knowing!"

Shi Yang finally spoke in a cold tone. "Master Shi, am I so disgusting in your eyes compared to someone who climbed into his friend's husband's bed?"

Lu Xijue was surprised at Shi Yang's bravery. He immediately sandwiched next to Shi Muyue. "Sir, you know me very well. Shi Yang had just said that I was a traitor. I can't possibly betray Lan Xuanyi whom I've considered to be my own brother."

Shi Yang replied with sarcasm. "What about me as her daughter? Will I cause my mother to suffer like that? It was clear who benefited the most in this matter."

"Please!" Shi Muyue slapped Shi Yang in the face hard. Even Shi Yang's face flushed to the red would be a slap mark. The man turned to look at the servants who were following, then spoke firmly. "You people! Give him a lesson on his insolent mouth! If you hear this kid say something dirty like that again, just cut his tongue off!"

"You too, really stupid." Shi Yang snorted.

Shi Muyue was furious. But before Shi Muyue grew even more furious, the servants immediately ran around carrying the long wood and lifted it up high to give a loud punch.

Shi Yang was already preparing. His strength could still not be disclosed or there would be many disasters beyond belief. He gripped the skirt firmly preparing to withstand the blow of very thick and hard wood. He hopes all this ends quickly and the two bastards leave as soon as possible.

However, something heavy did not hit his back. It only held back the wind that blew, as if all of this was a mere delusion.

What the hell's going on?

Shi Yang had no idea what was happening behind him. The large wood that the two maids were holding was floating in the air without being able to move, before finally the wood moved backwards just like that causing the arms of the two maids to twist backwards causing the sound of fractures to be heard.

Everyone is surprised. The two maids fell backwards until their heads hit the ground and bled. The red blood flowed like water on the ground, causing many servants to retreat in shock. The two maids were unconscious at that very moment.

"What's going on?" The servants were panicking. They search the culprits in all directions vigilantly.

However, despite being vigilant, some stones attacked them to the ground and fell to the ground. The five maids simultaneously fell helplessly due to a few small stones striking their feet.

That phenomenon caused Shi Muyue and Lu Xijue to be greatly shocked. They were trying to find anyone who tried to interfere, but no one other than Shi Yang was still kneeling in a frozen state. He also looked surprised.

"Who are you? Don't just be a coward who hides!" Shi Muyue was already extremely annoyed.

For some reason, Shi Muyue suddenly felt the aura around him becoming hot cold and congested. He shuddered in horror, but could only be brave despite being somewhat afraid.

"I'm not sure, if I go out, you'll still be able to stand." The cold voice was heard to their ears with pressure that made them almost dizzy.

Shi Muyue was suddenly frightened, while Lu Xijue was tensed. Since when was there such a strong person? Even until the mid-level savage beast in his consciousness trembled in fear.

Although Shi Muyue did not possess any advanced professional strength, still he was able to tell that the strength that had just charged him was already more than an advanced professional!
