Chapter 456: 456 Revealing the Su Family, the Antique Belonging to Shui Yunqing!【2 More】

In Su Jinran’s generation, only Su Ningxiang qualified to enter the Forbidden Land for training and she managed to come out alive.

However, aside from Su Ningxiang, two other core disciples also entered the Forbidden Land, but eventually did not make it out alive.

Su Jinran recalled Su Ningxiang mentioning that the deeper one went into the Forbidden Land, the more poisonous plants there were.

Moreover, higher-level herbs were often accompanied by fierce beasts.

Those beasts were extremely ferocious, and without sufficient strength, one could not survive the Forbidden Land.

When Su Ningxiang emerged, she was barely breathing and covered in wounds, and it took her a whole month lying down before she could walk again.

Because she successfully came out of the Forbidden Land, Su Ningxiang’s position as the Young Family Head became even more unassailable.

Su Ningxiang was the successor cultivated by the Su Family with all their resources, and even with her extraordinary talents, she barely passed the Forbidden Land assessment.

Then, what about Ye Wanlan, an ordinary person without Martial Arts skills?

She might not even leave her bones intact, likely devoured by snakes and insects.

"Director, I must say something," Su Jinran saw that the director seemed to want to send someone in to rescue Ye Wanlan and she sighed, "Even my sister came out of the Forbidden Land severely injured and close to death, anyone else going in would simply lose their life for nothing."

Director, stupefied and instantly turning pale, said, "But Miss Ye isn’t someone who wanders off recklessly!"

"It’s also my fault," Su Jinran shook her head, "I forgot to mention how dangerous the Forbidden Land is, but I also didn’t expect Miss Ye to accidentally enter it."

"Don’t panic, old friend, please don’t panic," seeing the director about to explode, Producer Liu pulled him aside and murmured, "When has Miss Ye ever used all her abilities? Have you forgotten what happened at the Xiang’s Imperial Palace Ruins? Miss Ye was simply godlike."

The director fell silent.

A moment later, he still hesitantly spoke, "What if..."

"Impossible, there absolutely won’t be a ’what if,’" Producer Liu patted his chest, "I trust Miss Ye, she often creates miracles, old friend, I’m someone whose worldview has been shattered by Miss Ye several times."

Director: "..."

He felt the same!

"But I suspect, someone in the Su Family definitely wants to harm Miss Ye," Producer Liu frowned, "After this episode is filmed, we must have Su Jinran leave the crew!"

For Ye Wanlan’s safety, as well as the future of the crew, they couldn’t allow a ticking bomb to stay.

**

At this moment, within the Forbidden Land.

Ye Wanlan and Yan Tingfeng walked side by side, with extremely bright and beautiful flowers blooming beside the path and colorful birds occasionally perching on them before swiftly flying away.

But, the more beautiful things are, the more dangerous they can be.

Although these flowers looked exceedingly attractive, they all were highly poisonous.

"Golden Flame Flower, Red Blood Grass, Butterfly Bamboo..." Utilizing her exceptional memory, Ye Wanlan identified these flowers and trees one by one.

Listening, Yan Tingfeng’s eyes narrowed slightly, "There’s even Heavenly Gang Earth Sha Wood here..."

Heavenly Gang Earth Sha Wood was one of the most toxic poisons, once contaminated with its sap, even if the Taiyi Divine Doctor were to reincarnate and exert all his power, he could only prolong the poisoned person’s life for three Shichen Chinese Time at most.

It’s known that the Taiyi Divine Doctor competes with King Yama for souls, which shows just how deadly the Heavenly Gang Earth Sha Wood is.

"Indeed, the Su Family has still hidden many things," Ye Wanlan crouched down, her eyes and eyebrows emitting a cold intention, "They tell outsiders that these herbs are extinct, but in reality, there are many in the Forbidden Land."

Information disparity seems simple, yet, it plays a critical role in most matters.

In the business world, having information others don’t have can be used to gain more economic benefits.

An old saying in Shenzhou goes, ’Know the enemy and know yourself, and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles’, which is essentially about information disparity.

So, before doing anything, Ye Wanlan always gathered as much information as possible, distinguishing the genuinely useful intelligence from it.

Because even a slight information gap can cause substantial impacts.

The Su Family’s concealment of these matters was because they alone held this information, which could be used unexpectedly at critical moments to catch others off guard and secure victory.

If they hadn’t seen the Heavenly Gang Earth Sha Wood here today, they would have believed it extinct and not stayed alert for it in the future.

"Mm," Yan Tingfeng’s eyelashes drooped, covering the fierce light flickering in his pupils, "So, the news that there are only three parts of the ’Taiyi Acupuncture Technique’ is also false."

At that time when he found out this news, he was also somewhat surprised.

Shui Yunqing had paid a great price to fully protect the legacy, and he had promised Shui Yunqing to find a hidden place for the remaining disciples of Taiyi Palace to avoid the devastation of the war.

Initially, Yan Tingfeng thought it was because the span of three hundred years was too long, or perhaps some unknown changes had occurred, which had led to the partial loss of the Taiyi Acupuncture Technique again.

Now it seemed that it was merely a smokescreen released by the Su Family.

"For personal greed, disregarding the original intention of healers." Ye Wanlan slowly closed her eyes, "How is the Su Family worthy of being the successor to Taiyi Palace."

If the Su Family could foster a character as malicious as Su Ningxiang’s, the previous generation of the Su Family was certainly not good either.

No wonder Su Yingxia was disappointed and left the Su Family to marry Rong Jingqiu.

Yan Tingfeng turned his head to look at her, "Xiao Wan, what do you plan to do?"

No matter what she did, he would help her.

Even if she were to kill someone, he would hand her the knife.

"I will help Xueqing return to the Su Family." Ye Wanlan opened her eyes and said softly, "Xueqing has already completed the three parts of the Taiyi Acupuncture Technique. Her talent is not inferior to Su Ningxiang’s and within half a year, she should surely reach the Sixth Layer."

Yan Tingfeng nodded and smiled lightly, "Good."

The two continued walking until they arrived at a wooden hut.

The hut was old and dilapidated, clearly long uninhabited.

Ye Wanlan pushed the door and entered. Inside the hut were several chilling skeletons, unsurprisingly, they were core disciples of the Su Family who had entered the Forbidden Land for training.

Judging from their skeletons, they hadn’t been poisoned; rather, they had lost their direction and starved to death here.

"Xiao Wan, here," Yan Tingfeng suddenly said. "There’s a hidden compartment."

Once he had spoken, a floor tile sank in, revealing a box within.

Ye Wanlan took out the box and opened it.

"This is..." When she saw the contents, she was taken aback, "Earrings?"

No, they were not just ordinary earrings.

The earrings were shaped like plum blossoms, crafted from pure gold through ancient techniques, with jade embedded at the center as the pistil.

The gold and jade interplayed radiantly, emitting a faint glow in the sunlight.

Of course, Ye Wanlan recognized these plum blossom pendants.

They were some of the few pieces of jewelry owned by Shui Yunqing.

As the Palace Master of Taiyi Palace, Shui Yunqing would have had a lot of leisure time, and she could have delegated all her duties to other disciples.

However, she often left the valley personally to treat patients.

Shui Yunqing also usually wore plain clothes, veils, along with plum blossom earrings and a plain bangle.

Even those from Jianghu who didn’t know Shui Yunqing’s appearance could identify her by her signature accessories.

Under the severe conflict between good and evil, nobody would dare harm Shui Yunqing.

"Plum Blossom Pendant." Yan Tingfeng’s gaze slightly intensified, "These must be Palace Master Yun Qing’s relics."

This was also something recorded in the historical books.

The Su Family had even publicly released a portrait of Shui Yunqing, who appeared like a celestial being in the painting, bringing significant economic benefit to them.

"I wonder," Ye Wanlan sighed softly, "what exactly was Palace Master Yun Qing’s fate during that great battle? Historical records on the Jianghu sects are far too sparse; many things remain unknown to us."

Yan Tingfeng fell silent.

As someone who had personally experienced that war, he indeed had many unknowns.

But the fate of Shui Yunqing...

He turned his head away, his expression somber.

Ye Wanlan placed one of the plum blossom earrings back into the compartment and touched a complete pair again, the light suddenly intensified!
