Chapter 1497 Chu Wuyang

1497 Chu Wuyang

'Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Why is this happening?! What went wrong?! I did everything perfectly!' Chu Wuyang cried inwardly after realizing that his plan to assassinate Chu Shijian had failed.

He shifted his gaze from Chu Shijian to Chu Liuxiang before stopping at Yuan.

'It must be this bastard's doing! This is the second time you've hindered my plans, you fucking bastard!'

Yuan noticed Chu Wuyang staring at him, so he made eye contact with him and showed a mocking grin.

'This fucker!!!' Chu Wuyang's body trembled from anger.

"Do you know who poisoned you?" Chu Shufen suddenly asked.

Chu Shijian didn't immediately respond, so the entire room fell silent.

"I do."

"?!?!" Chu Wuyang tried to hide the fear on his face but failed to do so.

"Who?! Which brave bastard dared to assassinate you?!"

Chu Shijian sighed and said, "That person is currently in this room with us."

"W-what?!"

The wives immediately started exchanging looks, their faces filled with disbelief and doubt.

Chu Shufeng shook her head and spoke a moment later, "Dear… there must have been some sort of mistake. How did you learn that someone here poisoned you?"

"I rarely left this place after my Dantian was crippled and I returned to being a mere mortal. I was completely healthy, albiet weak, until the system update for Cultivation Online happened. I began growing sick shortly after the system update, and I hadn't left our home for an entire month before the system update, so only someone from our family could've poisoned me."

"The poison, Basilisk's Tear, is administered through consumption, whether it be through liquid or food. Additionally, its intensely bitter taste can only be masked effectively with sweetness."

"Sebastian is responsible for all of my food, but there's no way he'd poison me. He has been with our family since birth, not to mention his ancestors. I trust him enough to entrust my life to him. Moreover, since I have a strict diet, he'd never go out of his way to cook anything sweet without receiving my request first."

"From the moment the system update occurred to now, only one individual in this room has fed me something sweet—

overwhelmingly so, at that."

Chu Shijian's gaze fell upon Chu Wuyang, who was visibly shaking by now and looked as though he was about to freeze to death.

The others followed his gaze to Chu Wuyang, their eyes wide with shock.

"N-no! There must've been a misunderstanding! My son would never do such a thing!" His mother quickly stepped forward, shielding Chu Wuyang with her body.
