Chapter 963: Chapter 962: Eternal Youth Pill

Lin Dong used his X-Ray and tracking abilities.

In an instant, everything within the Gu Family estate appeared before him.

After he left, the Gu Family began preparing for a dinner gathering, and the entire clan bustled with activity.

But just then, someone reported.

"Patriarch, Yan Family’s Yan Yu has come to visit."

"Yan Yu?" Hearing this, Gu Jiangming’s face changed slightly before he said, "Please invite him in."

That was the brother of War God Yan Qing; naturally, Gu Jiangming did not dare to negligently treat him.

Soon, Yan Yu entered the hall and approached where Gu Jiangming and the others were.

"General Tang Zhanshan, you’re here too," said Yan Yu, who obviously recognized the other party and greeted him with a clasped fist.

Tang Zhanshan gave him a slight smile, but it wasn’t too enthusiastic.

In fact, even though both he and Yan Qing were from the War department, the two of them belonged to different camps.

War God Yan Qing was one of the two leading war gods of the new generation, while Tang Zhanshan was in the camp of the veteran war gods, belonging to the Dragon King War God faction.

Thus, Tang Zhanshan and the Yan Family didn’t have a particularly close relationship.

Of course, superficial courtesies were still necessary.

"Young Master Yan Yu, as it happens, our whole family is gathering for a meal, if you don’t mind, you could stay and join us for dinner," said someone.

Gu Jiangming also said, "Indeed, if Young Master Yan Yu has matters to discuss, we can talk while having dinner."

Seeing this, Yan Yu laughed heartily, "Since Uncle Gu and General Tang Zhanshan have invited me so enthusiastically, I shall graciously accept."

After that, Yan Yu and his entourage took their seats, joining the Gu family’s dinner gathering.

There were quite a few tables.

Yan Yu was seated at the main table with Gu Jiangming, Tang Zhanshan, and a few others.

After the wine had gone around three times, Yan Yu also spoke of his intentions for visiting that day.

"Uncle Gu, I heard that the Gu Family possesses an ancient pill formula for the ’Eternal Youth Pill.’ It’s said that if one could refine it and consume it, they would maintain their youth for thirty years!"

"Yan Yu has come today to purchase that ancient pill formula from Uncle Gu."

Upon hearing this, Gu Jiangming’s expression shifted subtly.

He then laughingly said, "Young Master Yan Yu, that ’Eternal Youth Pill’ you speak of is not reliable."

"They’re just rumors, no one has ever managed to refine it."

Yan Yu laughingly said, "Uncle Gu, considering this, I think the Gu Family should sell that pill formula to me. I know an ’Alchemist’ who might be able to refine it."

Gu Jiangming chuckled and replied, "They’re all myths. Our Gu Family doesn’t have any ’Eternal Youth Pill’."

"Ah, Young Master Yan Yu, I don’t have a great tolerance for alcohol and can’t accompany you any longer."

"Zhanshan, could you keep Young Master Yan Yu company for a few more drinks?"

With that, Gu Jiangming, feigning a ’low alcohol tolerance,’ stood up and returned to the back room to rest.

Whereas Tang Zhanshan laughingly said, "Young Master Yan Yu, allow me to drink a few more with you."

Yan Yu could only chuckle and raise his glass to drink with him.

Yet in his gaze, there was a hidden streak of intense maliciousness.

As for Gu Jiangming, upon returning to the back room, he glanced toward the direction of the ancestral home and then entered the ancient residence.

And Lin Dong found that as soon as Gu Jiangming entered the ancestral home, his tracking and X-Ray abilities were rendered ineffective.

He couldn’t see through the part of the Gu family’s residence where the ancestral home was located.

"Seems like the Gu Family is not simple," murmured Lin Dong. He then shifted his X-Ray and tracking abilities back to Yan Yu in the living room.

Lin Dong saw a man in a suit accompanying Yan Yu discreetly open a bottle.

From that bottle, a stream of dark Qi that no one else could see floated out and seeped into Tang Zhanshan’s body.

Seeing this, Lin Dong was taken aback once again.

This method of poisoning was identical to what Lin Dong had seen at Wang Shouyi’s home.

Lin Dong could now confirm that the poison in Tang Zhanshan’s body was also related to the Yan Family’s Yan Yu.

Of course, the poison in Tang Zhanshan was different from that in Wang Shouyi.

The poison in Wang Shouyi began showing symptoms very quickly.

But the poison in Tang Zhanshan had no symptoms at the onset. Of course, once it took effect, the crisis was severe.

In just a few hours, it could claim Tang Zhanshan’s life.

This Yan Yu intended to take Tang Zhanshan’s life!

Lin Dong was capable of removing the poison from Tang Zhanshan’s body, but since Tang Zhanshan wouldn’t allow him to cure him, there was nothing Lin Dong could do.

As for the Yan Family’s true intentions, Lin Dong was still unable to fathom them.

He noticed that not long after Gu Jiangming left the dining table, Yan Yu also made his excuses to leave.

Seeing this, Lin Dong left early by car, so as not to be detected by Yan Yu.

He didn’t head directly back to the hotel, but instead went to buy some herbs for alchemy, specifically for refining ’Supplementary Yuan Pill’ and Nine Rebirth Pills.

He had run out of both the Supplementary Yuan Pills and Nine Rebirth Pills recently.

He needed to refine some to keep on him, so he could exchange them for herbs whenever necessary.

He spent an afternoon refining twenty Supplementary Yuan Pills and twenty Nine Rebirth Pills to hold onto.

After getting all this done, it had gotten dark.

Lin Dong then received a phone call from Qiao Bing.

"Lin Dong, night has fallen; you belong to me now," she said.

Lin Dong: "..."

It was just past seven in the evening.

"Sister Bing, isn’t it a bit early to discuss matters of life?" Lin Dong dryly coughed.

"What are you thinking about? I called you over to join me for dinner!" Qiao Bing shouted, "Why are you always thinking such racy thoughts?"

Alright, Lin Dong had misunderstood.

He quickly headed for the Demon City Grand Hotel.

However, the moment he arrived at the Demon City Grand Hotel, Qiao Bing took him straight to her room.

Lin Dong: ???

Puzzled, he asked, "Sister Bing, didn’t you say you wanted to have dinner together?"

Qiao Bing: "I don’t want to eat; I want to eat you."

Having said that, she lunged at Lin Dong.

Lin Dong: "..."

In the end, who was always thinking such racy thoughts?
