Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning-Chapter 1188 - 463: Audience_2

And the reason for choosing these people was precisely because they were infamous villains in the Jianghu.

Even if they disappeared, no one would bother looking for them.

At the same time, capturing them could reduce the number of wrongdoers in Jianghu.

It was something done for the common folk.

Elder Du always acted in this manner.

He would kill Jianghu people when necessary, never hesitating.

However, towards the common folk, not only did he never commit the slightest harm, but he even offered healing and medicine, saving countless lives.

Lady wholeheartedly supported this notion of his.

Thus the scene on Yusheng Island came to be.

In fact, if the couple had remained peaceful, these people wouldn’t have been able to cause any trouble.

They were firmly controlled by the duo.

But unexpectedly, Lady fell ill suddenly and couldn’t recover. Elder Du tried laboriously multiple times but failed to awaken her, so he left Yusheng Island to explore Jianghu seeking solutions.

Yet even though Elder Du left, according to his arrangements, this group still found it difficult to rebel.

Because aside from these criminals, there were loyalists of Elder Du on the island.

Elder Du trusted two people the most.

One was named Qingyang, and the other was named Yue Ying.

Qingyang Yue Ying had been learning medicine and poison from Elder Du since childhood.

Qingyang primarily studied medicine, while Yue Ying focused on poison.

Though not formally teacher and student, they were in practice.

Both were loyally devoted to Elder Du, leading him to entrust them with secrets.

Another person was Zhou Mao.

Zhou Mao had extraordinary cunning, and his daily disguise was excellent. Although Elder Du was quite perceptive, perhaps because he had no children in his old age, he regarded these clever young people as sons and nephews.

Even knowing Zhou Mao’s cunning and somewhat extreme nature.

He never truly cared.

He thought that as long as he stayed by their side and mentored them well, they wouldn’t have difficulty succeeding.

As for cunning, without cunning, how could one mingle in Jianghu?

If one’s nature was purely kind, they might be taken advantage of.

Therefore, he appreciated Zhou Mao, much like Sister Zhu said, treating him like a son or nephew.

Because of this, Qingyang Yue Ying didn’t deliberately guard against Zhou Mao.

No one imagined that this oversight would lead Yusheng Island into this predicament.

Zhou Mao and the ship’s captain colluded, finding them the antidote to restore their Inner Strength.

When they suddenly erupted, even though Qingyang Yue Ying had great skills.

They were still no match for these people.

Naturally, they were captured together.

After the rebellion, they initially thought about dispersing to the ends of the world, where there were plenty of places to go.

Even if Elder Du had extraordinary abilities, capturing them all was a delusion.

Yet they didn’t expect the issue to reach the final crux.

Qingyang Yue Ying didn’t know how to counteract the poison affecting them.

They only had poison, no antidote!

Because of this, the two endured silent torture repeatedly.

Ultimately, they couldn’t extract any clues from them.

This group of people was completely distraught.

The poison Elder Du planted typically flared once a year.

Without an antidote, they would suffer intestinal rotting without dying, screaming miserably for three days and nights, enduring all earthly torments before finally dying.

Without the antidote, even if they could momentarily wander Jianghu.

In the end, they would face a tragic outcome.

More critically, at the moment of their successful rebellion, they couldn’t act as if nothing had happened.

Thus... they thought of another plan.

This was to lure the Nanhai Alliance and Dragon King Hall people onto the island.

The Nanhai Alliance hated Elder Du intensely, and the Dragon King Hall felt similarly.

After all, one had their daughter abducted by Elder Du, and the other had their fiancée taken away.

Even though the current Dragon King Hall Master wasn’t the same as before.

This hatred persisted because of the past Black Island incident and, instead of diminishing, intensified.

When planning this, they didn’t know Elder Du had passed away.

So, the original purpose of bringing these two onto the island was to deal with Elder Du; additionally, was to join the Nanhai Alliance and seek their help in detoxifying.

The Nanhai Alliance naturally wouldn’t cooperate easily.

Because they were only minor figures, even if they helped deal with Elder Du, they might not wholeheartedly detoxify them.

Therefore... they fed the poison to Lady as well.

With this tactic, even if not for themselves, the Nanhai Alliance would exhaust all efforts to find an antidote for Lady.

The best outcome would be capturing Elder Du.

Taking the antidote from his hands would solve everything once and for all.

But no one expected Elder Du to leave Yusheng Island only to return lying down.

This development genuinely filled them with mixed emotions.

They feared Elder Du, which had become habitual.

Years of immersion led to conditioned reflex-like terror.

Now that this looming threat had died, their hearts naturally relaxed.

However... with Elder Du’s death, their antidote was entirely reliant on the Nanhai Alliance.

So, today there were these three ’gifts.’

The final move was to present Lady willingly, becoming ’aligned’ with the Nanhai Alliance.

Then shift all blame to Elder Du, claiming Lady was also victimized by him and helpless.

With this narrative, even the shame of the Nanhai Alliance’s young lady following Elder Du to the end of the world could be somewhat washed away.
