Shangguan Xiu stubbornly refused them.
Jia Sen, having believed Ouyang Zhi's words, schemed against the Shangguan Family, nearly causing their ruin. The predicament he is in now is entirely his own doing; he deserves it.
If the Old King hadn't been murdered previously, perhaps Shangguan Xiu would have given him the antidote.
But now, Shangguan Xiu has no time to deal with his own issues, let alone spare a thought for others' lives.
After hanging up the phone, Shangguan Xiu tossed it aside. Observing the mess in the bedroom, he angrily opened the glass door and stepped onto the balcony. His face darkened, his hands resting on the railing, gazing coldly at the distant forest, without any further reaction.
Meanwhile, Ouyang Zhi managed to contact Shangguan Xiu. He thought that by claiming to know the true culprit, Shangguan Xiu would believe him and cooperate, so he could obtain the antidote.
