The Legend of the Devil
Ch. 87 - News Spread

Yin Jiao was said to be in critical condition and unconscious for two weeks, Ziran Zhao summoned all the medicinal experts from any Empire to cure her. One of the healers from the Guang Empire came all the way at Ziran Zhao's request to save the girl's life.

Luckily, in the treatment for two weeks, Yin Jiao was rescued even though she was unconscious. Because the body and the drug takes up to several months to fully recover.

The physician of the Guang Empire, Chang Bei moved a ceramic container filled with Yin Jiao blood mixed with red poison powder. He intends to research in advance the content in the poison that makes it difficult to control and does not take long to directly gnaw the body of its prey.

"This is the Thousand Flower Poison, no doubt," he said, after smelling the blood-soaked fishy smell of the most poisonous flower that only grows on a former mountain of battle in the Guang Empire. Not many are able to handle this type of poison because once the process is so complicated and time-consuming, one of the things Yin Jiao's life will not be saved.

The girl was lucky to still be alive despite the possibility of forever being only fifty to fifty. Ziran Zhao let out a long sigh, his struggle to save the girl was not in vain. Both of Yin Jiao's parents found the right person to deal with the matter.

The rest he needed to clear up some of the problems that had arisen after the death of that sin-bearing demon. On one hand many people claimed to be calmer after the demon was exterminated.

But unexpectedly in the meeting held with the four Emperors from various countries, there were two voices that regretted the actions taken by Ziran Zhao.

Emperor Li of the Feng Empire and Emperor Mo of the Bing Empire admitted the act disappointed them. Until the second where Xue Zhan was killed by three hundred more people, no one could prove the young man guilty or not. The last news that was heard from the Eternal Valley, on the wall of the room of the Eternal Ancestral Hall was a red needle as thin as a spider web sticking right at the point where the 45th Elder was sitting. The needle instantly killed a disciple who touched it.

Kang Jian's death was uncertain as no eyewitnesses saw how the man plunged into the river, there is also no exact source from which the rumors about the death of the honorable man originated. Kang Jian was a straight swordsman, doing reckless actions for no reason was not his identity. Even if Kang Jian could not bear his embarrassment, he would have come to the palace grounds and beheaded himself before Emperor Ziran.

The mystery remains unsolved even though a month has passed.

"It's unfortunate, very unfortunate."

Not knowing how many times had Ziran Zhao heard the sentence, a swordsman escorting the arrival of the physician Chong Bei, Tao Guixang shook his head. Ziran Zhao who had been trying to calm his mind with a cup of warm drink was disturbed. He breathed deeply. The guest from the Guang Empire was resting after successfully curing the Yin Jiao poison.

Of course Ziran Zhao's duty is to serve his two guests.

"According to His Majesty does that demon really deserve this treatment?"

"What do you mean, Physician Chong?" Ziran Zhao still showed his friendly face. He smiled, "Young Swordsman Zhan has made a fatal mistake involving two great warriors from the Eternal Valley and harmed Miss Yin. This is an unforgivable evil deed."

Swordsman Chong Bei's bodyguard let out a voice, "Sorry to interrupt. But lately news has been heard that the real culprit is not the Young Swordsman Zhan, and also he himself who said he was slandered. But the swordsman from the Diqiu Empire would not listen to his voice. Is that true?"

The physician Chong Bei commemorates Tao Guixang. "Well, who do you think you're talking to? What happened, happened. All decisions have good bad."

Tao Guixang was not satisfied before getting the answer he wanted.

"If if the one who did this deed were Miss Yin, would Her Majesty also do the same? It is precisely possible that you and everyone will seek justification for Miss Yin to be able to survive. But that poor devil, he didn't do anything and everyone cornered him. Aishs. It's very pity."

"You'd better take a walk first, Taoist Swordsman. There are many beautiful sights in our city." The courteous attitude he displayed was inversely proportional to his sharp eyes. Ziran Zhao flicked the sleeves of his robe, suddenly overheating. Chong Bei smiled awkwardly,

"I'm sorry for the sassness of my bodyguard, he must learn some manners first before meeting a great person like you, Your Majesty. But I guess I should say goodbye first."

He bowed respectfully to Ziran Zhao and panted after. Now only Ziran Zhao and his bodyguards and servants remain. Weighing the situation outside that is still hot after a month has passed.

Lately the central weather of Diqiu Empire is a little strange, the rain is relentless and then the next day is hit by drought for days. The air can be very cold and an hour later so dry. Ziran Zhao walked slowly to the window and noticed the overcast sky above.

The storm came making his white-patterned golden robe fly, those aging eyes trying to search for something within the cloud clump that was similar to the sky when the event occurred. The riddle the demon left behind had no end, like a tangled thread. He could have stretched the thread, but in the end it was still difficult to find the end.

The look of agitated face continued to be plastered on Ziran Zhao's dignified face. Someone knocked on the door of the room and entered after being allowed, he half-kneeled as he delivered the news.

"Your Majesty, you should know this-"

The soldier's breath was wheezing, as Ziran Zhao's body turned around only to realize the man was covered in blood and his arm was torn by the incision. His face was half crushed like a blister eaten by fire.

"Say," Ziran Zhao replied quickly. The soldier raised his frightened face.

"An assassin came and destroyed the residence of the Second Young Master, Yin Xumei."

"What-what?!" Ziran Zhao was shocked half to death. Yin Xumei was part of his immediate family, supposedly the guarding in that place was very strict and strong. Especially in the midst of this uncertain situation everyone is all alert.

"Who did it? And how's it going in there?"

"Second Young Master was seriously injured and is currently being treated at his in-law residence. While the perpetrator of the attack was not known, he killed all the servants and bodyguards as well as Yin Xumei's son. Eleven people died in the massacre."

As if struck by lightning in broad daylight, Ziran Zhao immediately rushed to the Yin Xumei residence. Along the way the soldier explains that the mysterious swordsman uses a type of fire power. Enough to explain who destroyed the family.

"Don't it be you, Young Master Jiazhen," she whispered, Jiazhen Yan reportedly disappeared from her college. Jiazhen Wu had been on a search to find her son but the results were nil. He disappeared without a trace. During this one month Jiazhen Wu had repeatedly personally come to Ziran Zhao. To help him find his son.

Not even a hundred warriors would be able to find where the young man had gone. Everyone knew, Xue Zhan and Jiazhen Yan were very close like brothers. Losing Xue Zhan took him a hit and maybe that was the reason for disappearing all along. However this news made Ziran Zhao start to get anxious.

If Jiazhen Yan turned into an enemy of the Diqiu Empire to avenge himself, he was afraid that the young man would join a group like the Ghost Jade Tower or the Red Fangs to destroy them all, he was afraid that the young man would join forces with a group like the Ghost Jade Tower or the Red Fangs to destroy them all, the people who made him lose his friend.
