Chapter 648: Chapter 648: Exposed!

Seeing Zhou Yu commit such a cruel act against the River Taoist, Yan Kaining was furious.

"Uncle Zhang, I had pulled strings and paid a huge price to invite the River Taoist here."

"I didn’t expect that he would be humiliated like this in your presence."

"It seems that Uncle Zhang doesn’t take the Yan Family seriously at all."

"If that’s the case, then I’m leaving!"

Yan Kaining’s face was filled with rage, and he was about to leave.

However, a cold light flashed in the depths of Zhang Zheng’s eyes.

He said with a feigned smile:

"Kaining, don’t be in a hurry."

"Now that things have come to this, I will definitely give the Yan Family an explanation; just wait a moment."

As soon as Zhang Zheng finished speaking, Liu Bo slightly raised his head, and the expert behind him blocked Yan Kaining’s way out.

Yan Kaining’s expression changed, and a look of panic flashed in his eyes.

Jingjing, however, failed to grasp the significance of this; seeing her own father pushing Yan Kaining to this extent, she was driven to tears.

Jingjing’s eyes reddened, and she glared angrily at Zhang Zheng.

"Dad, I am very disappointed in you."

"Kaining has paid such a huge price to cure you, and yet now you are repaying his kindness with enmity."

Saying this, Zhang Jingjing moved next to Yan Kaining, standing beside him.

"Dad, if you do not provide an explanation today that satisfies me, I will never forgive you for the rest of my life."

Zhang Zheng’s eye twitched; this daughter of his really gave him a headache.

However, he said nothing, instead glancing briefly at Liu Bo.

Liu Bo nodded, understanding the hint.

Afterwards, Zhang Zheng looked towards Zhou Yu.

"This is your last chance."

Zhou Yu was calm and composed; he lowered his head to look at the River Taoist.

"What exactly is the matter with Governor Zhang’s illness? Tell me everything."

The River Taoist, stunned, mechanically began to speak:

"I was acting on the orders of the Yan Family Head..."

This statement shocked everyone present.

Yan Kaining’s face greatly changed, and he immediately shouted:

"Nonsense!"

"This is slander!"

"This guy must have tampered with something secretly..."

However, before he could finish, Zhang Zheng looked at him sternly, and that look made Yan Kaining swallow the rest of his words.

The River Taoist continued:

"Three years ago, the Yan Family Head used his connections to find me and discussed this matter in secret."

"He asked me to implant witchcraft in Zhang Zheng’s body to make him gravely ill and gradually wear down his will, turning him completely into an obedient puppet to help the Yan Family gain full control over Haizhou."

Zhou Yu narrowed his eyes.

"As far as I know, once the witchcraft is planted, nothing else needs to be done, so what was your purpose in coming here today?"

The River Taoist said blankly:

"The Yan Family wanted to test the control results of the past two years so, they had Yan Kaining and me come together, planning to have me control Zhang Zheng to agree to Jingjing marrying Yan Kaining."

"If agreed, it would prove the effectiveness of the control over the past two years, thus facilitating the Yan Family’s subsequent plans."

This revelation once again shocked everyone.

Especially Jingjing, who just a second ago had tears in her eyes and was feeling indignation for her boyfriend.

The next second, she was stunned.

Disbelievingly, she turned to look at Yan Kaining.

"Is... is all of this true?"

At this moment, Yan Kaining’s face turned extremely ugly.

At this moment, he was beyond any attempt to defend himself.

Looking at Jingjing in front of him, a sinister look flashed in Yan Kaining’s eyes, and he swiftly reached out, trying to grab Jingjing’s neck.

Just as he almost succeeded, Liu Bo made his move.

He threw a punch through the air.

The formidable Gang Jin directly sent Yan Kaining flying.

Pfft!

Yan Kaining spewed a mouthful of blood, flying backward and crashing heavily on the ground, nearly losing consciousness.

Meanwhile, Zhang Jingjing was saved by Uncle Liu.

Uncle Liu snorted coldly,

"Had Governor Zhang not reminded me just now, I wouldn’t have noticed that you, boy, had sinister intentions."

"Miss, are you all right?"

At this moment, Zhang Jingjing’s expression was already numb.

She couldn’t believe what she was seeing.

Yan Kaining had been so good to her, provided her with many beautiful memories, moved her, made her happy.

Was all of this fake?

She felt as though the sky was falling.

At this time, Zhou Yu continued,

"I just examined Governor Zhang’s body and vaguely sensed the witchery you implanted near his right arm, but I can’t find the whereabouts of the witchery. Why is that?"

Jiang Daoren said blankly,

"That’s a secret technique I obtained accidentally. This technique can completely merge the witch poison into flesh and blood, undetectable even by a master of the Saint Realm."

No wonder he couldn’t find any anomalies within Zhang Zheng’s body just now.

So that was the reason.

"Then how can it be removed?"

Zhou Yu asked the final question.

Jiang Daoren said blankly,

"The secret technique I obtained only has the method to apply it, not to remove it."

"To remove it, one must completely excise it."

Zhou Yu nodded and then looked towards Zhang Zheng.

"Governor Zhang, do you have anything else to ask?"

Zhang Zheng shook his head.

Zhou Yu immediately pulled out the three silver needles from his head.

Jiang Daoren trembled all over, and soon, he regained clarity.

After regaining his senses, his face turned ashen. Without saying another word, he immediately executed his movement technique and dashed outside.

His speed was such that even Zhou Yu took notice.

Zhou Yu inwardly praised.

This old Daoist still had some tricks up his sleeve.

However, he did not make a move, instead, he wore a look of someone watching a play unfold.

Just as the old Daoist reached the door, he felt a terrifying Gang Jin sweeping towards him.

Jiang Daoren’s face changed drastically, and turning his head, he saw that the person who made the move was a man of the Saint Realm.

It was Uncle Liu.

At this moment, Uncle Liu also harbored a lot of anger in his heart.

He, as Zhang Zheng’s guard, had no clue his charge had been stealthily bewitched, which was a direct slap to his face.

Therefore, facing this mastermind, he showed no mercy at all.

Bam!

A punch flew out, and Jiang Daoren was sent flying, blood spewing from his mouth.

This punch shattered all the meridians in his body.

Jiang Daoren, if not dead, was now crippled.

After doing all this, Uncle Liu looked towards Zhang Zheng.

"Old Zhang, what should be done with this person?"

Zhang Zheng’s eyes were filled with coldness.

"Take him out, deal with him."

Uncle Liu immediately waved his hand, having someone drag Jiang Daoren out.

Then, Uncle Liu turned to Yan Kaining.

"And him?"
