Chapter 4769: To Survive
Even if Madam was jealous, she couldn't possibly do such a thing. How could she poison Ziyan, and even harm Yun'er?
Long Chuyu instinctively shook his head. When his gaze met Ding Ziyan's, he felt a chill run down his spine.
Could Ding Ziyan really look at him with such hatred?
Long Chuyu quickly turned to look at Ding Yun, as if seeking confirmation, his eyes pleading as he looked at his son, "Yun'er, tell your father, is what your mother said true?"
This so-called "Heartbreaking Poison," was it truly passed to Yun'er through the mother's womb?
Ding Yun's gaze coldly swept over his face. "What good would telling you do? Can you avenge me?"
Long Chuyu immediately looked utterly devastated. He then turned to look at Madam Long, who was trapped amidst the wooden vines.
"Madam, why did you do this?"
"You ask me why I did this?" Madam Long shrieked. "If I didn't do this, could I have made that slut Ding Ziyan leave so willingly? You almost abandoned me for a woman from the Lower Star Domain. What else could I not do?"
Long Chuyu looked at her in shock.
Ding Yun watched, finding it immensely amusing.
He thought his father was truly comical. He was clearly the one juggling two relationships, swaying back and forth and harming others, yet he put on a facade of being a "victim."
It was truly ridiculous.
Ding Yun shook his head, not bothering to say anything more to him.
He turned and walked directly to Madam Long's side, only to hear Long Chuyu calling him mournfully from behind:
"Yun'er."
"Yun'er." Long Chuyu asked with a pained expression, "Does the Heartbreaking Poison affect you?"
Ding Yun found his father increasingly ridiculous. He turned and gave him a condescending glance. "What do you think? That's the only Heartbreaking Poison in the world. Do you think it would have no effect on me?"
"I've carried this poison since childhood. When I was little, the poison would flare up on the first and fifteenth day of every lunar month."
"To survive, I had no choice but to fuse with the venom of the Fire-Scaled Dark-Toothed Snake. It was a near-death experience, full of countless dangers and difficulties. Who could I tell?"
"Do you think I wanted to fuse with this snake venom and become an evil body master, hated by everyone? I did it to survive!" Ding Yun looked at him indifferently.
"Yun'er!" Long Chuyu cried out in sorrow. "Your father didn't know about this. Your father..."
"Now you know. You know who the perpetrator who harmed me is. Will you stand up for me? Can you solve my problems? Can you make your wife hand over the antidote for the Heartbreaking Poison?"
Long Chuyu was rendered speechless by his barrage of questions.
Ding Yun looked at him indifferently, a cold, sneering smile on his lips. "You can't do anything."
"Brother," Sikong Fuling walked to his side with light steps. "Everyone in the front and back courtyards has been captured, totaling over two hundred people. All are old, weak, women, and children."
"I know," Ding Yun nodded. "They only received the notice of relocation today. They probably hadn't even had a chance to cry before we captured them all."
The remaining old, weak, women, and children in the clan territory also had to move to Forgetful River Cold Valley.
But for them, Forgetful River Cold Valley was nothing short of a living hell; they might never return alive once they went there.
Sikong Fuling cast a disdainful glance at Madam Long. "Has this woman confessed? Has she said how to detoxify it?"
