Zheng Gong said, "Understood!"

"It is precisely because of the secret medicine bestowed by Master that we were able to break through to this Realm!"

"Because of this, we will be completely loyal to Master." freewёbnoνel.com

"Even if Master asked me to die right now, I would not hesitate..."

"Yet, even so, Master has still given me a choice. I... am immensely grateful."

Song Cheng said, "I suspect this Immortality Peach might be a secret medicine from a higher realm entity... Upon consumption, there are three possibilities."

"First, you emerge unscathed, with your lifespan and Realm increased;

"Second, the strength from the other party overpowers mine, and you become their person;

"Third, the conflicting forces cause you to die instantly."

Zheng Gong asked, "If the second scenario occurs, will Master kill me?"

Song Cheng replied, "Of course."

Su Mengzhen’s intelligent eyes flickered, and Song Cheng’s judgment made her thoughts run wild.

Sniffing his nose, Zheng Gong glanced at the Immortality Peach on the table and suddenly made his decision.

"Fortune favors the bold. I am willing to take the medicine."

Song Cheng said, "Get one and eat it."

"Yes, Master!" Zheng Gong respectfully went over, took a jade box, and then retrieved a peach. He looked at it blankly for a moment, before wolfing it down greedily, and he didn’t even leave the pit—his strong teeth chewed it into bits and swallowed it down with the rest.

Song Cheng calmly watched the man.

His suspicion arose firstly because Su Keshi’s "favorability" was very strange.

If he had agreed to the other party, their favorability should have increased.

If it didn’t increase, then everything was a facade.

Secondly, the Immortality Peach is a product from a land extremely rich in Yang Qi, and the essence of materials from a Noble Family Child used in secret medicine also has a rich concentration of Yang Qi.

Nonetheless, even with these two points, the likelihood of "Immortality Peach being a secret medicine" was still very low, so low that a normal person might simply ignore it.

But Song Cheng did not ignore it.

He would rather have a Pseudo-Profound Realm expert test the medicine, even if it meant wasting an Immortality Peach.

The reason it was a Pseudo-Profound Realm was because he felt that the Immortality Peach was of a high level and perhaps only when a person of a slightly higher Realm consumed it would the effects become evident.

Joy and pleasure showed on Zheng Gong’s face.

But the data provided a more direct expression of his changes at this moment.

His "strength data" started to rise directly, while his "favorability" plummeted rapidly, turning into "30" in a short while.

Thirty, which very likely represented the true attitude of their real master towards Song Cheng.

"Master, I feel very comfortable, so there shouldn’t be any issues," Zheng Gong reported the result.

Song Cheng responded, "Then take your time to digest it, and let me know once you’re done."

"Yes, Master!" The blue-shirted man with the aquiline nose continued to lie.

Seeing this scene, Su Mengzhen secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Once the man had left the room, she said with sympathy, "We wasted a peach."

Song Cheng said, "No waste."

Su Mengzhen: ???

Song Cheng said, "The Immortality Peach shouldn’t be eaten. There was indeed a problem."

Su Mengzhen realized, "You discovered a problem?"

"A big problem," Song Cheng said. "I know a Heart-Viewing Secret Method, so I was aware that Zheng Gong betrayed me the moment he ate the Immortality Peach."

Su Mengzhen: ...

Silence fell in the room.

The elder sister-in-law didn’t know what to say.

Should she comment on "the long-sought Immortality Peach that turned out to be inedible," or the "Heart-Viewing Secret Method?"

However, the words "secret medicine from a higher realm entity" had already shocked her.

"What do we do now?" the Head of the Su Family asked.

Song Cheng didn’t answer; he was pondering.

The more he pondered, the more thoughts stormed into his mind, and the multitude of clues began to outline, link, and form a complete, true event.

If the "Immortality Peach" is indeed a secret medicine from a higher entity, then "Su Keshi finding the peach and fleeing southward" must surely conceal the will of that entity...

At the same time, it just so happened that there was an issue with the canal.

All of it seemed to hint at someone wanting them to leave Accumulating Thunder Mountain’s Yaochi Peak.

And there, something big must be about to happen.

There were two questions:

One, if the other party was a much higher entity than him, why still resort to methods to lure him away?

Two, what did the other party want to do?

Honestly, although he still hadn’t been able to reach the higher realms of the world, he didn’t want to make deliberate contact. So... what was the best course of action for him now?

Song Cheng closed his eyes to ponder for a moment.

Suddenly he said, "Sister Su."

Su Mengzhen let out a giggle and then, knowing Song Cheng had a plan, she looked up at him expectantly.

Song Cheng said, "Tomorrow, you will help me kill Zheng Gong. Remember to strike with all your might and don’t hold back.

Afterwards, I will scold you and question why you killed a man.

You will say it was because you were jealous he ate the Immortality Peach."

We will have an argument, and you’ll leave in anger, then return, pretending to be me, and head west alone.

I will order the Medicinal Human to obey your commands."

As for me, I shall visit Accumulating Thunder Mountain once more..."

Su Mengzhen didn’t ask, "How are you going to impersonate?" or anything of the sort.

Truth be told, as one of the few people in the Noble Family who had survived the Reappear Calamity, she found it quite easy to adjust her voice to mimic another person.

As for appearance, she was very familiar with Song Cheng’s body—a body she had touched many times by her own hands. So, she would deliberately mold her body, bind her chest, and dress up...

If it were summer, this would be impossible, but as it’s still March and the people are wearing warm robes, it would be much easier.

...

...

That day, Song Cheng and Zheng Gong had a pleasant chat, and Song Cheng even went as far as to say, "Now that he has consumed the Immortality Peach and grown significantly stronger, we can henceforth refer to each other as brothers. There’s no need to keep using the formal address of master anymore."

Zheng Gong’s favorability showed no increase whatsoever.

The next day, Su Mengzhen struck without warning, severely injuring Zheng Gong with a sneak attack, then the two engaged in a chase.
