Chapter 487 There is a Spy
Fox stood on the dock, his face had turned the color of an eggplant, he never expected today's plan to be so brutally thwarted.
In order to gather everyone together, he didn't know how much effort he had put into it, even going so far as to create a fake gemstone conference at great cost.
Only when the boat had traveled far away did Fox finally start to recover.
"Issue the order, tell all the industries under the Knights of the Round Table to immediately commence a full-scale hunt for Chen Yu!"
The people present were momentarily stunned, seemingly hesitant.
One of his subordinates approached Fox.
"Sir, after all, Chen Yu is a member of the Knights of the Round Table, and all of his industries have already been linked to the Knights of the Round Table, trying to hunt him is like hunting ourselves."
Fox suddenly turned around and lifted the speaker high into the air.
"I don't care how you do it, I want results in three days! In five days, I want Chen Yu's head on my desk."
The man was scared half to death and nodded repeatedly.
After leaving the archipelago with his group, Chen Yu followed Luo Qing straight to Luo Hai's territory.
The others had verbally agreed with Chen Yu and then left on their own.
These people represented various major organizations and, to some extent, could represent their respective organizations, but Chen Yu couldn't possibly pin all his hopes on them.
Apart from those organizations that truly had a stake with him, the rest were fair-weather friends.
It's possible that these people might immediately throw themselves into the embrace of the Knights of the Round Table as soon as they left.
Compared to other organizations, the Luo Hai organization was relatively independent, residing on an island in the southern hemisphere.
It had a very strong ethnic character, and many people had come here to seek refuge.
When he landed on the island, Chen Yu was captivated by the scenery here.
That kind of beautiful tropical scenery would mesmerize anyone who saw it.
"Mr. Chen! My father is right ahead in that mansion."
Luo Qing's voice was thick with worry.
He knew that Chen Yu had arrived in a hurry, without any Water Spirit Pearls on him, and he didn't know if he would be able to cure his father.
Chen Yu didn't think too much and strode towards the mansion.
The Luo family had a tradition of passing down its lineage from father to only son, and Luo Ming only had one son, Luo Qing, who was also borne late in life.
It was said that at fifty, with no children, Luo Ming sought a child through his early connections with the Xuanqing Sect.
At that time, the Heavenly Master Long Tian gave him a medicinal pill, and after returning, he indeed had a child.
Unfortunately, this medical quest used up their favors with the Xuanqing Sect.
This time, to treat Luo Ming, Luo Qing took the risk to bother Chen Yu.
In the vast room, Luo Ming lay on the bed, barely clinging to life, his aged cheeks full of wrinkles and dark spots, seemingly at death's door.
Considering that Luo Ming was nearly eighty years old, if he died at that age, it would be a natural death from old age.
In this case, preserving Luo Ming's life indeed seemed like defying heaven.
Chen Yu crouched by the bed, grasped Luo Ming's pulse, and after gently probing for a moment, suddenly stood up.
"Has your father been to any strange place recently, or eaten anything unusual?"
This question stumped Luo Qing, who hesitated for a moment before immediately summoning a servant to his side.
A group of people were all talking at once, saying a great deal, until eventually, a mute old mother pulled Chen Yu's hand and pointed out the window, gesticulating for quite a while.
Chen Yu couldn't understand very well and could only scan the other party's brain for information.
"Are you talking about the black flower that's planted in the middle of the yard's garden?"
The old mother nodded her head vigorously, and once again started gesticulating a great deal.
Chen Yu ran straight outside to the yard and picked a black flower.
Pure black flowers are not common in this world, and many people call this kind of flower "Hell Flower."
Legend has it that if you're lucky and eat this thing, you can live forever; if you're unlucky, you'll drop dead!
Chen Yu, of course, didn't believe such nonsense and immediately started to analyze it with the system.
The reason this flower was pure black was merely because of its growing environment, and moreover, it contained a strange toxin that could somewhat alter a person's genetic factors.
After quickly analyzing the toxin's components, Chen Yu went directly inside the house, took out acupuncture needles, and started to apply them to Luo Ming.
Luo Qing approached with some worry.
"Mr. Chen, I have consulted many famous doctors before, and they all said that only the Water Spirit Pearl from the Xuanqing Sect can truly cure him. Are you sure this will heal my father?"
Chen Yu did not answer and just focused on inserting the needles.
"Mr. Luo, if you want your father to survive, don't disturb him. Just wait quietly over there," Chen Yu said.
Jin Lingsu directly went forward to pull Luo Qing aside.
Minutes and seconds passed, and there was no movement from Luo Ming, whose body was already full of needles, looking like a hedgehog.
Just when Luo Qing was becoming extremely anxious, Luo Ming suddenly sat up and violently spat out a mouthful of black blood.
Chen Yu immediately relaxed, walked over to the side, wrote out a prescription, and handed it to Luo Qing.
"Immediately fetch three portions of these herbs according to the prescription. The medicinal soup must be ready within an hour," Chen Yu instructed.
Luo Qing dared not delay, and the small island even had a pharmacy that stocked all sorts of medicinal herbs from around the world.

In less than an hour, his subordinates had already prepared the medicinal soup and brought it before him.
Chen Yu did not have Luo Ming drink the soup; instead, he soaked a towel in the medicinal soup and began to wipe it over Luo Ming's body.
After doing all this, Chen Yu suddenly pulled Luo Qing aside into the yard.
"Your father's condition isn't simply due to eating the flower from the yard; someone has poisoned him. I suspect that among the Luo Hai, there is a mole," Chen Yu revealed.
Luo Qing froze on the spot.
The Luo Family's organization was isolated overseas, and this place was also quite secretive, beyond the reach of ordinary people.
For someone to infiltrate here and silently poison Luo Ming, the person's backing organization must surely be one of the top ten.
"It must be those sons of bitches from the Knights of the Round Table, damn them for going too far!"
Luo Qing gritted his teeth, wishing he could immediately wipe out the Knights of the Round Table completely.
Chen Yu patted his shoulder.
"Don't act rashly. I will write another prescription for you. For the next half a month, follow the prescription when taking medicine. Not only will your father recover, but his bodily functions will also return to the state they were in ten years ago. At that point, we can discuss revenge," Chen Yu advised.
Luo Qing nodded repeatedly, just as he was about to say a few words of thanks, a slight sound suddenly came from a corner.
Before he could react, Chen Yu's figure had already flashed over, and after a short while, he dragged out a young girl in her twenties.
