The Rebirth of the Legendary King
Used to Be Too Arrogant

On the other hand, Ling and the others had already returned to the Shi Family.

The Shi Family Elder saw if Ling did not bring up the matter yesterday. Whether it was coincidence or indeed planned, there was no denying that Ling had saved them.

"Your room is still the same as yesterday. It was beside Chen Yuai's room. If there is nothing urgent, it is better not to go out. I'll send someone to look after you," the Shi Family elder said.

Ling only slightly nodded and said nothing. He also doesn't care about anything else.

He returned to his room and turned on his computer to search for information about the Shi Family.

However, his expression became grim. He suddenly realized that Mr. Shangxuan had told him to come to the Shi Family not to save people. He did not know if Ling could save those people or not. So, what was the real reason Master Shangxuan had sent him to the Shi Family?

Ling looked at the computer screen seriously. As he pressed the enter button, a map of the entire island instantly appeared on the screen.

His gaze froze.

Based on the book that Master Shangxuan showed him, the Shi Family probably had pieces of ancient maps.

If he wanted to save Zhuo Xia, he would have to find an ancient altar. If his guess was correct, the pieces of paper he had been collecting were all part of that ancient map.

If the one remaining piece was indeed in the Shi Family .. however, Ling also believed that one more piece was in Wu Shao's hands.

Ling massaged his temple.

When he was thinking hard, there was another commotion outside.

*

"Quick! Quickly go to the Xiao Family and invite that Doctor Zhuo. Earlier, Doctor Zhuo said that if someone who is infected can be cured as long as it has not been infected for one more day. He had just been infected and could definitely be cured" said someone in a panic.

Ling came out and saw many people already gathered outside the courtyard. In the middle of the crowd, there was someone lying on the ground. His skin gradually turned blackish green.

Chen Yuai had just exited the room and yawned. As he looked at Ling, he immediately pulled his hand away. He doesn't know what to say to Ling now. He didn't want to tell her anything either.

However, as he looked at the person lying on the ground, his expression instantly changed. Fortunately, Ling did not see it. Ling just stared fixedly at the person lying on the ground.

However, Chen Yuai was caught off guard.

Ling glanced at him and was somewhat astonished to see Chen Yuai's expression.

Chen Yuai as soon as possible changed her expression, "I'm just afraid something happened to her. Don't get too close. I've sent people to look for Miss Zhuo Shiaonian. He'll be here soon."

However, Ling brushed off his hand and simply nodded. He looked very cold and did not speak. He walked to the back of the crowd and was still staring at the person lying on the ground.

Seeing Ling like this, Chen Yuai said nothing.

After the incident last night, he had vaguely figured out Ling's character. He looks ordinary, but he is actually more difficult to approach than other people. He and Shi Jiu only knew if his surname was Chen. They don't even know his name.

However, now was not the time to think about this. He again stared fixedly at the person from the Shi Family lying in front of him.

It seemed like the people behind this were indeed targeting the Shi Family.

As Madam Shi looked at Ling, he immediately said, "Why did you let her out? I heard you even took him out last night?"

No one knows his daughter better than he does. He knew that Shi Jiu had always focused on researching potions. He was never interested in anything else. In fact, he did not treat Chen Yuai in any special way. Now, his nature was a bit strange towards an unknown person. Madam Shi felt she was extremely dangerous.

However, before he got an answer, a voice stopped him.

A group of people who looked haughty came, "Quick, step aside! Miss Zhuo Shiaonian is here. No one surrounds this place. Miss Zhuo Shiaonian said if the air is obstructed, then the people around her will be easily infected."

After hearing this, everyone immediately dispersed.

Ling stood in the middle of the crowd and looked at that familiar figure. No doubt that person was Zhuo Shiaonian. The trap was right.

However, there was indeed something wrong with the Shi Family.

"Miss Zhuo Shiaonian, please save him," said Chen Yuai who rushed out from the crowd. His tone sounded pleading.

Zhuo Shiaonian just frowned and did not say anything. He went straight to the man lying on the ground.

First of all, he took out a silver needle and inserted two needles into the person's body. The color of the needle changed immediately.

The people watching did not understand what he was doing. They only knew, after Zhuo Shiaonian took those two needles, he sighed and stood up.

"I can't save him," replied Zhuo Shiaonian who everyone had never expected.

The Shi Family Elder immediately said, "Miss Zhuo Shiaonian, didn't you say if you can save anyone, on condition that you haven't been infected for more than a day? I can still be quiet for the matter of the Young Master before, but this time, he has obviously just been infected. Why can't you save him?"

Shi's family was in a chaotic state. Including this person, two people from the Shi Family were infected with a rare virus that even Doctor Zhuo could not cure.

Shi Jiu frowned. He stood to the side and clenched his hands. As for Chen Yuai, when he heard Zhuo Shiaonian's words, he was somewhat dazed. It was obvious that he was hit hard.

Ling silently glanced at the person lying on the ground. As he looked at Chen Yuai from the tail of his eyes, he immediately turned his head towards him and raised an eyebrow.

Chen Yuai did not pay much attention to Ling's current expression. When Ling heard the question his face turned somewhat pale. He replied, "I've known him since I was in the Cheng Family. If it wasn't for him, I would've been dead a long time ago."

Ling nodded slightly.

At this moment, Zhuo Shiaonian began to speak again. However, he was unaware of Ling's presence among the crowd.

To be honest, at Ling's level right now, even Zhuo Xia alone would find it difficult to find him secretly.

"Eld Shi, I really cannot save this person. Because the virus in his body was different from the previous Young Master. Maybe I need to study it again for a few days. And also, I suspect the virus this time can be transmitted through the air. However, I can't do anything. You need to find a solution as soon as possible" said Zhuo Shiaonian. He didn't seem to feel guilty at all. He just shook his head relaxed.

The expressions of everyone who heard this were instantly grim. They also realized that the symptoms of this time around were indeed different from those of the previous Young Master.

The elders and servants of the Shi Family instantly panicked. What should they do now? Did those people really want to exterminate the Shi Family?

"Elder, it's not safe here. Let's move the Shi Family first from here" said one of the people.

"Chen Yuai, I will ask you again. Do you know Cheng Rui? Young Miss Cheng Family?" tanya Ling looked at Chen Yuai.

Although he did not understand why Ling was asking that, he still nodded in response.

Knowing the answer, Ling shook his head slightly, "Hm, it turns out that he really knows her."

Ling didn't know what virus the person was exposed to, but it wasn't hard to save him. However, he could not do that secretly.

As he thought, he shifted someone in front of him and he walked forward.

Elder Shi was currently chatting with Shi Jiu, "Young Miss, I will arrange for all family members to go to the Xiao Family to seek help. The people behind this must all be eyeing our Shi Family. This time ...."

Ling was still walking forward. As he heard elder Shi's words, he raised his eyebrows. He glanced at elder Shi and could not help but laugh, "I want to see how dangerous this virus is. However it turned out, it had only been made for the Shi Family to leave. Zhuo Shiaonian, is this the gift you gave me for a year?"

This voice was too sudden and very cold. When people panicked, this voice was like a bucket of water resuscitating them.

The guard beside Zhuo Shiaonian immediately turned his head furiously. That person obviously wanted to fight Zhuo Shiaonian!

As he turned around, he saw a figure slowly walking out of the crowd.

Ling narrowed his eyes a little. As he met people like this, he clearly looked arrogant. His eyes, his body, all exuded an indifferent attitude.

As Zhuo Shiaonian's guard saw Ling's face, he felt as if someone had strangled his neck. His eyes widened and he was speechless.

The atmosphere felt very quiet. Although he wanted to stop Ling, but his actions were reversed with his mind.

"Young Master Chen?" the guard felt disbelief as he looked at Ling. He could only speak after being stunned for quite a while.

He was Zhuo Shiaonian's guard, of course he knew Ling. Especially because of that student acceptance competition. Nine potion recipes that were almost never heard of appeared. Ling's name and figure instantly became the legend of a new generation in the herb world. Even Zhuo Shiaonian was not worth comparing to him. If not for Ling having disappeared from the face of the earth over the past year, no one in the herb world would have been able to act as they pleased.

"Ah, that's you," Ling said glancing at the guard. His voice sounded pleasant when he greeted him. Ever since in Shadow City, that guard had always been one of the guards behind Zhuo Shiaonian. Ling could remember it because he had a photographic memory.

The guard didn't expect Ling to still remember. He was flattered.

As Zhuo Shiaonian heard the words of his guard, he froze for a moment and slowly turned around. As he looked at Ling, his eyes dimmed.

"Chen Ling, are you going to interfere in this matter?" asked Zhuo Shiaonian.

There are indeed rules in the world of potions, if one should not interfere in the affairs of other herbologists. If Ling forced him to interfere, it meant that he would fight Zhuo Shiaonian openly.

Of course, if Zhuo Shiaonian was willing for Ling to interfere, there would be no problem. However, the two of them have always been in conflict. How could Zhuo Shiaonian be willing?

Madam Shi frowned as she saw Ling out barging through the crowd. He was afraid that Ling would offend Zhuo Shiaonian. However, he did not expect that Zhuo Shiaonian guards turned out to be so courteous to Ling. This leaves him dumbfounded.

Ling walked slowly towards Zhuo Shiaonian. He smiled slightly and nodded, "I have no other choice. I owe Chen Yuai a favor."

Before Ling left, Chen Yuai gave him the nearby mountains with abundant resources for free. It was indeed what he needed, so Ling did not reject it.

However, from a long time ago, it was very difficult to pay the favor. Ever since he met the Cheng Family, he was already supposed to do this.

Zhuo Shiaonian did not know where Ling had gone for a year, but he knew that he could never underestimate Ling. In the past, he was too arrogant and thought that no one in the world could match him. He fought Ling with confidence. But apparently, he was wrong.

So, when Ling said that he wanted to interfere in the matter, Zhuo Shiaonian did not say anything. He waved at his guards, "Let's go."

The group of people who originally came over haughtily, now they all left in silence.

Seeing Zhuo Shiaonian already gone, Ling turned around and looked at Chen Yuai, "Move this person into the house."

However, not a single person moved.

He played his fingers and said lazily, "Don't worry, with me here, you won't catch the virus."

As they entered the house, Madam Shi pulled Chen Yuai's sleeves nervously, "Son, who is this Young Master Chen?"
