Oh no! I, the weakling, have become the villain!

Chapter 173 Leaving the Forbidden Area

This was the first time in Xu Yao's life that he had seen so many medicinal herbs. To be honest, most people would never have the chance to see so many medicinal herbs.

But here's the problem: honestly, it's really impossible for the average person to get their hands on so many precious medicinal herbs.

However, now that Xu Yao and his two companions have encountered them, Xu Yao, true to his nature, will naturally want to get to the bottom of this matter.

However, at this moment, the old man's initial joy gradually turned into worry.

Seeing the old man like this, Xu Yao asked curiously, "Old man, weren't you very happy just now?"

"With so many herbs, why are we suddenly feeling worried?"

The old man then said, "These medicinal herbs are indeed precious, but they are all highly poisonous. If we take them directly..."

"I'm afraid he'll die from the poison before he can even take it away."

"No way!" Xu Yao looked at the old man with a completely bewildered expression.

This feels like going from heaven to earth; we were just saying we were going to do something.

Now that's settled, since this is the way things are going to be, there's really nothing more to say.

That's just how things are, but if you do it that way, then it's hard to say what will happen.

Anyway, that's the situation now. Xu Yao knew that since the old man said these herbs were poisonous, there was nothing more to say.

Anyway, that's the situation now. Since we need to figure it out, that would be the best thing to do.

However, there's not much to say now, since all these herbs are poisonous.

Then there's no need to waste too much time.

Just as Xu Yao was thinking this, he heard Chen Yue say, "Xu Yao, I've been poisoned."

"Wow." Xu Yao almost exclaimed, "Wow, that's so accurate!"

While he was still telling the old man that the medicinal herbs were poisonous, the next second, Chen Yue was also poisoned by the herbs.

Upon seeing Chen Yue's condition, Xu Yao's face instantly turned pale. He quickly said, "Don't move."

"I'm suppressing the poison for you now, so that if you get poisoned, things will become complicated."

Xu Yao quickly used his internal energy to suppress the toxins in Chen Yue's body.

After a while, Chen Yue's complexion improved considerably.

Xu Yao then said, "You've managed to suppress the toxicity for now, but the spread of this toxin is probably beyond what most people can achieve."

"In short, everything else is fine, but if this poison spreads, it could be disastrous."

"Just bear with it for a bit, we'll think of something else. As long as you don't do anything reckless, the poison shouldn't spread too quickly," Xu Yao said.

Upon hearing Xu Yao's words, Chen Yue nodded in agreement.

Then, Su Chen was seen searching for an exit throughout the forbidden area.

Although there are precious medicinal herbs everywhere, there are also poisonous plants all over the place, so Su Chen naturally has no interest in dealing with them.

And the most important thing is that no one can find a way out right now, and that's the most important thing.

It would be best if we could find a way out, but we can't right now.

That's a different story. At this point, Xu Yao said directly, "It seems we have no other choice now."

"In that case, how about this: let's first find a way out, and then..."

"Then we'll talk about what happens next. In short, we'll leave everything else here. If we really want to cause trouble..."

"Then there's nothing to say."

Just as Xu Yao was leading the old man and Chen Yue around looking for an exit.

Just then, a middle-aged man appeared in front of them.

The man was around forty years old and seemed a bit strange, but it was surprising that he had managed to come to this valley.

I'm afraid this person is from Medicine King Valley.

Upon seeing the three of them, the man smiled and said, "Are you three lost?"

"Um, um!" Xu Yao was a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say.

After all, whether or not they got lost, the motives weren't pure to begin with, so there's not much to say now.

Anyway, the matter is what it is now, and if we're going to do it, then of course we can.

But here's the problem: if we really want to do something, then that would be the best thing to do.

But here's the problem: the uncle's sudden appearance made the three people present somewhat embarrassed.

The man smiled and said, "Let's go. This forbidden area is full of poisonous plants. If you stay here, it will only be more dangerous."

"And I saw your little brother; he's probably already been poisoned."

Chen Yue then nodded.

Xu Yao is also at a loss now. After all, if it were someone else, it would be much easier to talk to.

But here's the problem: now that things have come to this point...

Then there's no point in wasting time; that's just how things are right now.

Once this matter is resolved, everything else will be much easier.

Thinking of this, Xu Yao led the two men and followed the uncle, leaving the place directly.

After leaving the valley, the three of them finally emerged from the place that had been filled with medicinal herbs.

Next, the man arranged accommodations for the three of them, but so far none of them know who he is.

Although Xu Yao was very curious, it wasn't appropriate to ask right now, so he suppressed his curiosity.

And so, the three of them settled down, and thanks to the uncle's help, Chen Yue was able to get rid of the toxins in her body.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Xu Lan was sitting in the room with Chao Feng discussing this matter.

Xu Lan said, "The head of the Chen family is also poisoned and unable to move, and the young master of the Chen family, Chen Yue, is also missing."

“This is a perfect opportunity for us to cause trouble at the Chen family’s house. If we miss this chance, we might not get another one like it,” Xu Lan said.

"If you go now, Chao Feng, while Chen Yue is away, you can wipe out the entire Chen family. Then all the wealth and status of the Chen family will belong to your Chao family."

"You should already know about such a good thing as Chao Feng's, so I don't need to say anything more," Xu Lan said directly.

After hearing Xu Lan's words, Chao Feng said, "What you said is true, but there is only one problem."

"Will this work?" Chao Feng asked, somewhat worried.

Xu Lancai then said, "You are, after all, a member of the Chao family. Do you think the Chao family would be afraid of the Chen family?"
