The sudden incident was beyond everyone’s expectations.
No one had expected Lin Yuanheng to eat Ye Xuan’s pill without hesitation.
Even Alchemy King Gu Xi’s heart was in his throat. He was the one who brought Ye Xuan over. If something happened to Lin Yuanheng, the Lin family patriarch would probably take revenge on Ye Xuan.
He couldn’t protect Ye Xuan even with his status by then. For a moment, his head hurt to the extreme and he began to regret bringing Ye Xuan here, “Elder Ye, what did you give to Young Master Lin?”
“It’s a supreme-grade Marrow Cleansing Pill!”
“We’ve already come to this point. Can you stop joking?”
Alchemy King Gu Xi was so angry that he couldn’t speak. He didn’t expect Ye Xuan to be such unreliable. After checking Lin Yuanheng’s physical condition, his expression became even more unsightly.
“Young Master Lin suddenly fainted for some reason. I think…”
Alchemy King Gu Xi stammered as he spoke the rest of his words. His expression revealed his guilt. The Lin family patriarch immediately understood the meaning behind his words and his expression turned even colder.
“I think it’s because of that pill.”
The Lin family patriarch was so angry that he couldn’t speak, “Hurry up and bring the young master back to his room for treatment.”
Even if Alchemy King Gu Xi didn’t want to admit it, he couldn’t refute it. He lowered his head in guilt. Lin Yuanheng’s foundation wasn’t good. If he got worse because of this pill, the Lin family patriarch would probably vent his anger on him.
“He didn’t want the incomplete supreme-grade Marrow Cleansing Pill but ate a pill of unknown origin instead. You see, he’s unconscious on the ground now for some unknown reason.”
Patriarch Su consoled him, “Brother Lin, don’t worry too much. God will help a good person. Based on his current condition, he can’t be that bad either.”
Although he was comforting the Lin patriarch, the gloating in his expression couldn’t be concealed, and the words he said were even more sarcastic and harsh to the extreme.
The Lin family patriarch’s anger rose.
“Men! Take him down!”
Although he had a good impression of Ye Xuan, he couldn’t be blamed for the current situation. After all, Lin Yuanheng fainted because of the pill in Ye Xuan’s hand.
If this was poison, or if it was mixed with something harmful to the body, wouldn’t it cause an even greater blow to Lin Yuanheng?
“There must be a misunderstanding,” Alchemy King Gu Xi came forward.
The Su family was still adding fuel to the fire by the side. They fanned the flames while watching the sense of bustle, even trying to make things worse.
“Why are you so angry? Isn’t this Young Master Lin’s own choice? I think the young man is too impulsive. If he had accepted our pills, there wouldn’t be any hassle.”
Su Qingyun also thought that Lin Yuanheng had brought this upon himself.
The Lin family patriarch’s understanding of their shamelessness and self-righteousness had once again been refreshed.
“Your Su family is also one of the main culprits. If it wasn’t for your continuous humiliation and pressure, my son wouldn’t have taken this choice.”
“Brother Lin, I don’t like what you said. Your son ate something bad himself, and we didn’t force him to do so. How can you blame us? We reminded him as well.”
At this moment, a servant from the Lin family ran over hurriedly, “Patriarch, please go and see the young master!”
Seeing the look of panic on his face as if something big had happened, the Lin family patriarch immediately panicked, “What happened?”
The servant stammered, “Patriarch, you’ll know when you see him.”
Patriarch Lin looked at the Su family and Ye Xuan coldly. He ordered the people around him, “Keep an eye on them. They are not allowed to leave without my orders.”
Su Qingyun was still a little unhappy, “We’re not criminals. Besides, we didn’t cause Lin Yuanheng to be like this. Why can’t we leave?”
Seeing that Su Qingyun still wanted to continue, Patriarch Su stopped her, “It’s fine. I’d like to see what the Lin family can do to me if something happens to Lin Yuanheng.”
Most importantly, the two families had already fallen out, so there was no need to maintain a superficial peace. He was also happy to see the Lin family suffer.
Su Qingyun was very disdainful, “It’s Lin Yuanheng’s fault for not knowing what’s good for him. He deserves this kind of ending, but they still want to blame us.”
When the Lin family members heard this, they immediately glared at her.
“Don’t go too far, Su family! It’s all your fault that the young master becomes like this. It’s fine if you don’t regret it, but you’re still making sarcastic remarks here.”
If it wasn’t for the Lin family patriarch’s instructions to not get into a conflict with the Su family, they would probably have taught this group of people a deep lesson.
Su Qingyun snorted coldly, “How could it be our fault? The real culprit is right next to us.”
After that, everyone’s eyes fell on Ye Xuan. He didn’t look flustered at all. instead, he was extremely calm, as if everything had nothing to do with him.
He said disapprovingly, “What are you looking at me for? I said it’s a supreme-grade Marrow Cleansing Pill. There’s nothing serious. He’ll wake up in a while.”
His attitude and appearance made the other guests exclaim in admiration.
“Putting everything else aside, this person is impressive in lying. The matter has come to this point yet he’s still talking about supreme-grade Marrow Cleansing Pills.”
“This is the first time I’ve seen someone who can boast to this extent without a change in expression.”
“Could it be that the thing just now was poison? Otherwise, why did Young Master Lin faint straight away after he had eaten?”
“He doesn’t have the guts. Besides, there’s no enmity between the two of them, so why would he do such a thing?”
Just as everyone was discussing, the Lin family patriarch walked over slowly with a serious expression to Ye Xuan. His steps seemed to be heavy, and every step he took made people’s hearts tremble.
Seeing this expression, Alchemy King Gu Xi immediately felt that something was wrong. Could something have happened to Lin Yuanheng?
“It’s over,” that was the last thought in his mind.
However, the next second, the Lin family patriarch bowed to Ye Xuan in front of everyone. They were shocked.
What was this about?
