Chapter 350 - 219: The Bloodline Reappears, the Mysterious Stone Eye

’This kind of person would be a good fit for a Demon Sect.’

Li Chang’an thought to himself.

A short while later, he left the secret chamber and secretly followed Mu Hua.

Mu Hua was only a Fake Foundation Establishment Cultivator. His Magical Power and Divine Sense were inferior to those of a true Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

Meanwhile, Li Chang’an’s Divine Sense was at the Foundation Establishment Peak, and his Escape Technique was masterful.

Mu Hua remained completely unaware that he was being followed.

He left the Black Market and headed back to Yellow Crane Immortal City. Halfway there, he removed his disguise, quickly reverting to his usual pale, sickly appearance.

Not long after, the two of them entered Yellow Crane Immortal City one after another.

Li Chang’an watched as Mu Hua returned to his residence.

"Sis, I’m back."

"Ah Hua, how are you feeling today? Any better?"

Mu Caiwei asked with a concerned smile.

"Don’t worry, Sis. I feel much better."

A smile appeared on Mu Hua’s pale cheeks.

Next, he went into the kitchen, took some flesh, blood, and Spirit Medicine from his Storage Pouch, and began preparing Spiritual Cuisine for Mu Caiwei.

"Sis, you’ve taken care of me all these years. Please, let me cook for you today."

Hearing this, Mu Caiwei was overjoyed, and her eyes grew misty.

Her little brother was changing for the better. How could she not be happy?

At that moment, Mu Caiwei suddenly recalled Li Chang’an’s warning.

The last time they met, Li Chang’an had told her that her brother might not be sick, but was instead cultivating a Poison Technique.

Many Poison Cultivators had the same appearance as her brother: gaunt and sickly.

’Ah Hua is kind-hearted. He can’t possibly be a Poison Cultivator.’

Mu Caiwei didn’t believe Li Chang’an. She chose to trust her own heart.

Little did she know that inside the kitchen, Mu Hua was adding several types of Tier Two Poisons to the Spiritual Cuisine.

Li Chang’an’s Divine Sense enveloped the entire residence, allowing him to see Mu Hua’s actions with perfect clarity.

’Five types of Tier Two Poisons. There’s a Sleep Poison and another that causes Stagnant Magical Power. Mixed together, not even a Foundation Establishment Cultivator could withstand it.’

He had killed the Five Poison Wanderer’s disciple and son, obtaining a large number of Jade Scrolls detailing various poisons from their Storage Pouches. His knowledge in this area was now far greater than before.

He could recognize common poisons with a single glance.

After a moment, Mu Hua brought the poisoned Spiritual Cuisine to the dining table without hesitation.

"Sis, I just had a breakthrough in my Spiritual Cuisine skills. Have a taste."

"Ah Hua, you’ve worked hard."

Mu Caiwei’s heart filled with warmth. With her guard completely down, she began to sample the Spiritual Cuisine.

It tasted a little strange.

She didn’t think much of it, assuming it was just due to Mu Hua’s lack of skill. Still, she put on a satisfied expression, praising the food as she ate.

But gradually, she began to feel that something was wrong.

’Why do I feel so drowsy? Could it be a latent injury from my last fight with that Demon Beast?’

Even then, Mu Caiwei still didn’t suspect Mu Hua. She simply wondered if she had some residual Demon Poison in her system.

But as the dizziness gradually intensified, she finally looked at Mu Hua.

"Ah Hua, you..."

"Sis, I’m sorry."

Mu Hua dropped his disguise. The smile vanished from his face, replaced by pure indifference.

He said in a cold voice, "All these years, the Yellow Crane Mountain Lineage has been targeting us, causing us to suffer heavy losses. Master needs the body of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator to nurture his Poisonous Insects—preferably a living one."

Upon hearing this, Mu Caiwei froze.

She never could have imagined that Mu Hua was actually a Poison Cultivator!

From his words, it wasn’t hard to deduce that his master was none other than the notorious Five Poison Wanderer!

"Ah Hua, when did you become a Poison Cultivator?"

"A long time ago."

Mu Hua’s expression was cold, showing no trace of emotion.

"Sis, you’ve helped me so many times. Just help me one more time. I want to be a revered Foundation Establishment Cultivator, just like you. If I offer you to Master, he’ll surely reward me with Foundation Establishment Resources."

At his words, a wave of sorrow washed over Mu Caiwei.

In Mu Hua’s eyes, she was apparently worth nothing more than some Foundation Establishment Resources.

"Ah Hua, if you want Foundation Establishment Resources, I can find them for you."

"Sis, you don’t understand. The Foundation Establishment Resources Master gives me will be the best kind for me."

Mu Hua shook his head indifferently.

"Besides, if I offer you to him, Master is sure to think more highly of me. He’ll direct more resources my way in the future."

"You..."

Mu Caiwei’s eyes turned red and her voice choked with emotion. A profound sense of pain and sorrow surged through her heart.

She had imagined many possible ways her life might end.

But she had never, ever imagined...

that she would be betrayed by her own brother.

"Sis, I only have an Inferior Spirit Root. I’ve paid a heavy price to get to where I am today, and I’m willing to pay even more," Mu Hua said coldly.

"Don’t worry. I’ll become the next Mo Qingkuang, and I’ll surpass him. When I become one of the most powerful cultivators in the world, I swear I’ll resurrect you from the river of time."

After speaking, he immediately took out a Tier Two Spirit Net, intending to bind Mu Caiwei.

Deeply poisoned, weak, and powerless, Mu Caiwei was completely unable to resist.

Bitterness and regret filled her heart.

If only she had listened to Li Chang’an and paid closer attention to Mu Hua, she might have noticed something was wrong.

But now, it was too late.

"Sis, don’t struggle. Nurturing the Poisonous Insects won’t be painful. You’ll be unconscious for most of it."

Mu Hua looked at Mu Caiwei, his pupils gradually turning a jade green color.

He activated a Poison Dao Technique, preparing to cast the Spirit Net.

But just then, an immense power descended from above. It felt like a towering mountain suddenly crashing down on him, making his entire body tremble violently.

BOOM!

Mu Hua couldn’t react in time and was forced to his knees on the spot!

Shocked and enraged, his jade-green pupils swept across the room.
