Chapter 129 Past Events

  Du Ming listened to An Pingwen's words and laughed instead, "Is that so? I'd like to see what you're capable of now. You wait, I'll find you sooner or later and tear you limb from limb!"

  The last few words were spoken by Du Ming with gritted teeth, one word at a time, his voice extremely cold and cruel, even Zhao Yuexin beside him trembled slightly.

  Anping's expression didn't change, he coldly snorted, "Alright, I'll wait and see, let's see who can outlast the other."

  Du Ming said, "Your apprentice Qin Huaiyi is now in my hands, don't you care about his situation?"

  "Qin Huai Zhi?" An Ping Wen said lazily, "Since you've already caught him, what's the point of me keeping him? Besides, he probably has already revealed my situation to you. If I let him come back, I'll have to bother punishing him. It's better to just hand him over to you for disposal!"

  Anping finished speaking and hung up the phone with a bang. Du Ming squinted his eyes for a long time, then fiercely slammed the phone to the ground, smashing it into pieces.

  Qin Huaiyi was still staring at Du Ming in shock, as before him, except for his master An Pingwen, he had not seen anyone so powerful that he could ignore the poison he had put on himself, and he had not recovered yet, staring blankly at him.

  Du Ming turned his head to look at Qin Huaiyi, suddenly bent down and grabbed his collar, lifting him up. "You want to challenge the entire medical field? Alright, I'll compete with you!"

  As he spoke, Du Ming grabbed Qin Huaiyi with one hand and took out a tool kit from his bag with the other. With a flick of his wrist, a ring with a fine silver needle appeared in his palm, similar to the previous ring used to detect poisoning, but with some differences in color.

  Du Ming flipped the ring over, with the silver needle pointing outward, and directly stabbed it into Qin Huaiyi's arm, leaving a small red dot.

  Du Ming disdainfully threw Qin Huaiyi to the ground, picked up the ring and coldly looked at Qin Huaiyi saying, "This poison will also take effect in twelve hours. If you don't find an antidote before it takes effect, you will undoubtedly die. If you can solve it, then solve it, or go find that stupid master of yours? Tomorrow at this time, I'll still be here waiting for you."

  After finishing speaking, Du Ming stood up straight and pulled Zhao Yuexin, "Let's go."

  Everyone in the bar just witnessed this sudden change, they were all stunned and watched as Du Ming and Zhao Yuexin walked out of the bar in big strides.

  As they left the bar, Zhao Yuexin pulled Du Ming and said, "That Qin Huaiyi, aren't you going to interrogate him again? Maybe he still knows some other information."

  Du Ming sneered and said, "Don't worry, after twelve hours, he will come to me by himself. Him? With that cowardly look, is interrogation even needed?"

  Zhao Yuxuan nodded, hesitated for a moment, and then asked cautiously, "That Anping Wen, who is he? You seem to get very angry whenever you hear his name, as if you want to skin him alive."

  Du Ming let out a long sigh and said, "An Pingwen, he used to be my junior fellow apprentice. Although he's a despicable person, I have to admit that he has great talent. If he develops properly, he might become a famous figure in the field of poison-making or medicine in the future. However, his heart is not right and he has taken the wrong path."

  "Evil path? I think you're quite evil yourself," Zhao Yuexin joked, but seeing Du Ming's serious expression, she retracted her playful tone. "What's going on, what did Anping Wen do?"

  Du Ming said, "Originally, Anpingwen was favored by his master because of his cleverness, but as time went on, his true nature was revealed. His master saw that he never listened to advice and did things that were not in line with ethics, thinking it was because he had spoiled him too much, so he decided to be stricter with him. Unexpectedly, Anpingwen felt that he was no longer favored by his master, but instead of thinking it was his own problem, he thought it was someone else's."

  "Other people's problem?" Zhao Yu'e asked curiously, "What does this kind of problem have to do with others?"

  "We have a young junior brother named Gao Changyue, who is very intelligent and kind. Everyone likes him, but Anping Wen thinks that the young junior brother has stolen away Master's favor. At that time, he had just successfully created a poisonous medicine and said that it was impossible to create an antidote for this poison."

  Zhao Yu'e interrupted, "Is it the same kind of poison that Qin Huaiyi gave me today?"

  Du Ming nodded, "Yes, that's the one. At the time, Master saw it and said Anping Wen was wrong, this poison must have an antidote, Anping Wen didn't believe it, one day he secretly gave the young apprentice the poison, the young apprentice soon showed symptoms of poisoning, even Master couldn't save him in time, in the end the young apprentice died."

  Zhao Yu'e took a cold breath, "This Anping Wen, actually dared to be so ruthless? That's his own junior brother!"

  Du Ming said with a sigh, "In his eyes, what's left of the sect's bonds! My master regretted it for a long time and studied the poison in my junior brother, vowing to find an antidote. Anping Wen had talent, but the poison he concocted wasn't perfect. After researching for a period, Master found its antidote, but by then, Junior Brother was already gone, and even if we'd found the antidote, it would've been too late."

  Zhao Yu'e also felt a pang of regret and lowered her head with a sigh.

  Du Ming said, "So today you were poisoned and I was able to find the antidote so quickly. To be honest, if Master hadn't studied this poison before, I might not have been in time to help you detoxify."

  Zhao Yu'e nodded, "That's also my good fortune."

  Du Ming continued, "At that time, my junior brother was poisoned. We thought it was the enemy seeking revenge, but we didn't expect it to be someone from our own sect who had administered the poison. However, An Pingwen's true nature became more and more apparent. Master said that with his impatient and greedy mindset, he would never become a true master. Yet, he himself refused to accept this and wanted to prove his abilities, even until the very end..."

  Du Ming paused for a moment, revealing an angry expression. Zhao Yuexin asked somewhat urgently, "What happened next?"

  Du Ming said, "An Ping Wentai was too eager to prove himself. He even poisoned his own weapon when exchanging blows with his master, wanting to prove that his poison-making skills were stronger than his master's. And indeed, his master was poisoned by him. Mainly because he didn't expect his own disciple to secretly plot against him."

  "Then what happened to your master in the end? Won't he also..."

  Du Ming said, "No way, otherwise how could we let Anping Wen leave the sect alive?" As he spoke, Du Ming suddenly revealed a hint of a triumphant smile, "After all, although Master was calculated by this bastard, isn't there still a senior brother in the sect like me?"
