165: Leaving the House

Upon receiving this news, a cold glint flashed in Li Changfeng's eyes.

Mulan Manor launching this battle for the Seven-Colored Powder and subsequently destroying the Gao Family seemed like a plausible reason.

However, what did Mulan Manor want with the Seven-Colored Powder?

Could it be that there was truly some secret?

"Physician Chen, I ask you, who from Mulan Manor told you to go to the Gao Family?" Li Changfeng turned back, a flash of realization striking his mind.

Just at this moment, Li Changfeng suddenly thought of something else.

The news of Mulan Manor attacking the Gao Family should have been quite confidential.

Yet Physician Chen knew about it, and even knew that the Seven-Colored Powder was in the Gao Family Warehouse. So, who told him?

Or perhaps, Physician Chen knew something, and he had some connection with Mulan Manor.

"This..." Physician Chen was somewhat conflicted. If possible, he didn't want to say anything about these matters at all.

"What is it? Is Physician Chen unwilling to speak?" Li Changfeng looked up, staring intently at Physician Chen.

At that moment, Physician Chen gasped, trying his best to calm himself down.

Li Changfeng became even more curious about this Physician Chen. If things were truly as he claimed, it wouldn't be like this right now.

Moreover, Physician Chen was simply too strange.

"It's not that I'm unwilling to speak, but that I cannot. That person will kill me, and will kill my whole family!" Physician Chen was somewhat agitated, and as he said these words, he was actually trembling.

If it were possible, Physician Chen would not want to be in such a predicament. After all, this was something he had no choice in.

"Then tell me, who is that person? I will take care of him before he can make a move!" A cold glint flashed in Li Changfeng's eyes.

Li Changfeng's face was grim as he stared fixedly at Physician Chen.

Just at this moment, Physician Chen lowered his head and pondered for a long time.

After a long while, Physician Chen was finally willing to speak; judging by his expression, he seemed to have made up his mind.

"Fine, I will tell you. That person is a commander of Mulan Manor. Actually, I don't know who he is, I only know his name." Physician Chen lowered his head, having pondered for a long time.

"A commander? A commander from Mulan Manor?" Li Changfeng was curious.

In Yizhou, Li Changfeng only knew of one commander, and that was Wang Yi.

Could there be a second commander in Yizhou?

Li Changfeng pondered for a moment, but he could not think of who this person might be.

"Yes, that person is a commander of Mulan Manor. I heard he is in charge of the Yizhou Imperial Guard, and this unit is Mulan Manor's personal army." Physician Chen lowered his head, thinking for a long time before finally remembering.

"Right, I remember his name is Zhang Chongfei."

"As of now, Zhang Chongfei should be at the Gao Family mansion's warehouse; he is waiting for me to go there."

Physician Chen's eyes lit up; he had an idea.

Since this Zhang Chongfei was an Advanced commander of Mulan Manor, his status within Mulan Manor must not be low.

Zhang Chongfei would know about the Seven-Colored Powder and would likewise know Mulan Manor's secrets.

Li Changfeng understood in his heart. Originally, he had only intended to save someone, but he had unexpectedly stumbled into a conspiracy.

"Physician Chen, are you sure this person is named Zhang Chongfei?" A sharp glint flashed in Li Changfeng's eyes.

Li Changfeng stared intently at Physician Chen, wanting an accurate answer.

"Yes, he is called Zhang Chongfei, but I have never met this person; I only know the name." Physician Chen looked serious, and he did not appear to be lying.

Li Changfeng gasped; he already had some ideas in his mind.

Since this Zhang Chongfei was part of Mulan Manor's personal army, his presence in Yizhou was also to garrison the city.

And Wang Yi was also a commander of Mulan Manor; he was the garrison commander of Yizhou.

Mulan Manor had first seized the city gates in Yizhou, and then seized the heart of the main city. Such ambition was obvious.

"Then where did this person tell you to go?" Li Changfeng continued to press.

"The Gao Family Warehouse." Physician Chen replied.

Hadn't he just said it? He was to go to the Gao Family Warehouse to find the Seven-Colored Powder.

Why was this kid still asking? Could it be that he hadn't understood?

"Good, Physician Chen, I have a favor to ask of you. Help me save Situ Jiu, and I will help you deal with your enemy!" Li Changfeng's eyes lit up, his expression serious.

"But, as I said before, Young Master Situ Jiu's injuries can only be treated with the Seven-Colored Powder; other medicines are useless." Physician Chen sighed.

In truth, it wasn't that Physician Chen didn't want to save him, but that there was simply no way.

If he had the Seven-Colored Powder, that would be one thing.

But the Seven-Colored Powder was already in the hands of the Gao Family, and furthermore, it was about to fall into the hands of Mulan Manor.

Physician Chen was truly helpless.

"Who told you there was no Seven-Colored Powder?" Li Changfeng curled his lips into a smile and pulled a jade bottle from his bosom.

Li Changfeng handed the jade bottle to Physician Chen.

"What!" Physician Chen was slightly stunned. He found the jade bottle very familiar.

Afterward, he hurriedly turned around, stretched out his hand, and carefully took the jade bottle.

Physician Chen gently opened it and took a sniff.

"This is the Seven-Colored Powder! This is truly the Seven-Colored Powder!" Physician Chen was overjoyed.

"Young Master, how did you get your hands on this!"

The Seven-Colored Powder, the most poisonous substance in the world, was inherently rare. Finding it in such a short time was truly not easy.

Even if one knew where it was, it was not so easy to obtain.

"It's very simple. This Seven-Colored Powder is the very bottle from the Gao Family Warehouse, so you don't need to go at all; there is no Seven-Colored Powder in the Gao Family Warehouse." Li Changfeng curled his lips and held his head high.

Li Changfeng revealed a smug smile.

It was also at this moment that Li Changfeng had a little scheme.

"Physician Chen, think about it yourself. If you go to the Gao Family Warehouse and don't find the Seven-Colored Powder, how will the commander treat you?"

"His plan will have failed, and he will be furious. Do you think you will survive?"

"And your family? Will they be able to live on?"

"Doesn't it all depend on Zhang Chongfei's whim? He could cut you down if he's unhappy. Is it really worth risking your life for someone like that?"

Li Changfeng's words struck right at Physician Chen's heart.

In truth, Physician Chen knew very well that in Zhang Chongfei's eyes, he was just a dog.

He was not even as good as a dog.

Physician Chen was only helping Zhang Chongfei find what he wanted, but if he didn't find it, Zhang Chongfei would definitely fly into a rage.

And at that time, Physician Chen wouldn't even have room to regret; his life was in Zhang Chongfei's hands.

"Young Master, you are right. Perhaps, from the beginning, I thought of it too simply." Physician Chen looked somewhat dazed; he gasped, feeling utterly helpless.
