Chapter 398: 374 Fu Yunshen: What evidence do I need? [2 updates]
To have the Guard Team Captain of the family personally take action, only the Head of the Family could give such an order.
The mastermind behind this matter was none other than the Head of the Yu Family.
Nie Yi knew that Ying Zijin’s medical skills were exceptional, so after obtaining the information, he went to the Ancient Martial World ahead of time.
Old Master Nie gripped the armrest of his chair tightly and recounted the events of that day with a grave voice, “This matter, it cannot be separated from the Lin Family!”
How could it be such a coincidence that right after Steward Lin visited, Nie Chao was injured by people from the Yu Family?
“The Lin Family,” Fu Yunshen hadn’t expected this twist, his peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly, “It’s the Lin Family again.”
The Lin Family was one of the three major clans in the Ancient Martial World, surpassing the Ling Family by a great margin, let alone the Yu Family.
Not to mention families like the Nie and Mu families, even the other two major clans in the Ancient Martial World wouldn’t clash head-on with the Lin Family.
Especially since, the Lin Family had produced a Lin Qingjia.
Thus, within the Ancient Martial World, the Lin Family had the best relationships with those Ancient Medicine Families.
The reputation of the Lin Family was also the most prominent, with the other two families avoiding their sharp edge.
“First, we go to the Yu Family, then to the Lin Family,” Fu Yunshen didn’t smoke, but he lit a cigarette anyway.
The flame reflected in his light amber-colored pupils, cold and detached.
He spoke indifferently, “Also check who else is involved in this matter, not a single one can be let off.”
Fu Yunshen could guess that the Yu Family targeted that medicine, or more precisely, they targeted Ying Zijin.
The Lin Family, cunning as they were, chose not to act directly but leaked the information to their subordinate clans.
Whether it was injuring Nie Chao or targeting Ying Zijin, each was a line he refused to allow others to cross.
Old Master Nie shook his head, looking defeated, “But we have no evidence.”
Upon hearing this, Fu Yunshen chuckled softly.
He snuffed out the cigarette he had just lit, casually stating, “What need have I for evidence?”
When Old Master Nie heard this remark, he trembled, “You…”
Indeed.
In the Ancient Martial World, power is the only evidence that matters.
“The way things are done in the Ancient Martial World will follow its rules,” Fu Yunshen said as he smiled, his voice as gentle as ever, “Whoever hurts my brother will pay the price.”
Conflicts in the Ancient Martial World were frequent, with life-and-death fights occurring daily and clans being annihilated monthly, thus making death a common event.
Sometimes, the friction between the major clans could be even more brutal than ancient wars.
It was this kind of environment that bred the ruthless and arrogant nature of most ancient martial artists.
In the eyes of many ancient martial artists, life was worth next to nothing.
Old Master Nie also felt fortunate that Nie Yi, after so many years in the Ancient Martial World, hadn’t developed a crooked nature.
Aside, Ying Zijin had rested for a few minutes and stood up, “Let’s go together.”

“Yaoyao, be good, you just exhausted yourself, stay here,” Fu Yunshen’s gaze hardened, “I’ll handle this matter.”
“I won’t fight,” Ying Zijin said softly, “I’m just delivering medicine to them.”
Fu Yunshen paused, knowing what she was thinking.
He caressed her head, his eyes tender, “Then let’s go together.”
**
The Ancient Martial World.
The Yu Family.
“Head of the Family,” the middle-aged man kneeled on one knee, displaying great respect, “The task you commanded has been completed, although a little accident happened during the blood collection process.”
He explained the mishap that had occurred.
After listening, the Head of the Yu Family frowned slightly, but soon relaxed, waving his hand dismissively, “A trifle, don’t worry about it; I’ll have someone send the blood for research shortly.”
The middle-aged man bowed again before leaving.
Although he had accidentally crippled Nie Chao, he hadn’t forgotten to collect the blood.
If they could decipher the composition of the medicine Nie Chao consumed, the strength of the Yu family would also rise.
After the middle-aged man left, the Head of the Yu Family scoffed softly.
Even if their Yu Family was far inferior to the Lin Family, they were still a clan with over a hundred members, and with household guards and protectors, the numbers exceeded five hundred.
Apart from some children and females, the rest were ancient martial artists.
The highest cultivation within the Yu Family belonged to an Elder who had practiced for eighty years.
The Nie Family was a merchant family, a secular clan; how could they compete relying on just a Nie Yi?
No matter how excellent Nie Yi’s ancient martial talent was, no matter how genius, he couldn’t possibly assault the Yu Family alone to seek revenge.
If Nie Yi did rush over, the Head of the Yu Family wouldn’t mind keeping him as well.
The Head of the Yu Family wasn’t particularly concerned about the incident; after sipping his tea, he prepared to rest. However, at that moment, a household guard ran in frantically and knelt with a “thud” on the floor: “Head of the Family, there’s trouble, someone has broken in!”
The Head of the Yu Family’s hand trembled, his expression changing, “What did you say?!”
“It’s Nie Yi!” the household guard said with a trembling voice, “Nie Yi, he’s broken in!”
Hearing that name, the Head of the Yu Family calmed down, “Who do you think it is, just him? Send a few Guard Team Captains.”
Nie Yi, twenty-seven years old this year, had cultivated inner strength since the age of seven when he came to the Ancient Martial World, his cultivation spanning twenty years.
But he alone couldn’t possibly take on several Guard Team Captains.
“No… it’s not just him!” the household guard was shuddering, “Head of the Family, you might want to see for yourself.”
The Head of the Yu Family grew impatient, “Even if it’s not just Nie Yi, plus other people from the Nie Family, what can they do?”
Did they really think they could touch the Yu Family?
Naive.
But after thinking about it, he still went outside.
**
Outside.
The guards of the Yu Family lay fallen on the ground.
The middle-aged man was kneeling, trembling, his eyes wide with disbelief as he looked at the man in the black trench coat.
Nie Yi, when did he get to know such a powerful ancient martial artist?
But clearly, this man was only in his early twenties!
How high could his ancient martial cultivation be?
Yet in front of this man, he had no power to resist, not even able to take a single move.
“Sir…, what do you mean by this?” the middle-aged man could hardly accept the situation, his voice harsh and fearful, “Why did you hurt my Yu Family’s guards?!”
Fu Yunshen’s gaze was faint, “It was you, wasn’t it?”
The middle-aged man stiffened, obstinately denying, “What evidence do you have, sir?”
How much time had passed?
At most six hours.
They had clearly erased all traces, so how did the Nie Family track them down?
No, what’s most important is, who exactly is this man?
Fu Yunshen chuckled, “I don’t need evidence.”
Those six words sent the middle-aged man into a chilling despair.
Just as he was about to break down, Fu Yunshen released his control over him.
Overjoyed, the middle-aged man turned to run.
But just then—
“Crack.”
“Crack crack!”
The sound of bones shattering filled the air.
In just a second, both legs were broken.
The middle-aged man was immensely shocked, his complexion turning ghostly pale as he experienced a pain so intense he nearly passed out.
Inner energy from a distance?!
This technique, even the elders of the Yu Family couldn’t manage it.
The middle-aged man’s teeth chattered, “You…”
Fu Yunshen didn’t care to answer.
He turned around, the cold aura around him dissipated, and he beckoned, “Yaoyao, come here.”
Ying Zijin, carrying a small case, walked over.
The middle-aged man was still in extreme pain, about to faint from it.
His mind was groggy, his ears buzzing, until he heard a sentence.
“You want my medicine?” Ying Zijin squatted down, a light smile on her face, “Just in time, I brought it, you can eat as much as you like.”
The face of the middle-aged man changed completely, “You, you…”
Although Ying Zijin had changed her appearance, she hadn’t changed into an older one.
Ancient Medicine can preserve youth, but it’s not defying heaven; there are limits.
The middle-aged man thought, an ancient physician capable of refining such a medicine surely wouldn’t be less than a hundred years old.
An ancient physician of this age, even if preserving youth, could at most appear and sound as if they were twenty-five years old.
But the girl was clearly not over twenty!
What kind of powerful ancient physician was this?
Unheard of!
Ying Zijin put on her gloves and opened the case she was carrying.
Inside were filled with bottles and jars, dazzling to the eye.
Ying Zijin’s gaze swept over each container, she raised her hand, first picking up a white jade vial, opening the stopper.
Then looking up with a smile, her voice gentle, “How about I feed you?”
The middle-aged man felt his scalp tingle and almost explode with dread, “No… no!”
Without having to guess, he knew that whatever was inside that vial was surely not something good.
Although the combat power of ancient physicians is not strong, they have many methods to make a life worse than death for ancient martial artists.
The middle-aged man tried to escape, but his legs had already been broken by Fu Yunshen, leaving him without the ability to even stand.
Watching the girl, he was close to despair, “Don’t, I don’t want it!”
However, no matter how he struggled, it was all in vain.
In the midst of the middle-aged man’s terror, Ying Zijin remained emotionless, her eyes cold as blades.
She exerted force with her hand and with a “snap,” forcefully pried open his jaw using the broken bone method.
