Volume 1: The Devil's Hand, Heavenly Doctor, Hidden Fangs 028 Nightfall, Kill Without Mercy!
"Madam, young master, actually you both have eaten it."
"What did you say?" Bai Yan stared at her in a daze, thinking she had misheard her words.
On the side, Xia Yu smiled and said: "Madam, your body is not good, so Miss gave you a Qi-gathering pill to nourish your body. It's that black medicinal pill that Miss gives you every year. The effect of the Qi-gathering pill is very strong, so it can't be taken in excess. I heard Miss say that Madam's body has gradually recovered and will have no problem getting pregnant again after two more years." As soon as she said this, she couldn't help but cover her mouth, looking regretful.
"Oh no, I've spoken too much again. The young lady said she wants to give her husband a surprise."
As she listened to her words, Bai Yan's eyes became slightly hot and her heart felt warm and fuzzy, so moved that she didn't know what to say. From five years ago, Xin'er would give her a black pill every year, saying it was to supplement her body, and after eating it, she found that her old ailments of dizziness and blood not clotting had disappeared, thinking that the pill was quite effective, but never knowing that the black pill was so precious...
"Black pill?" Tang Zihao narrowed his eyes, seemingly recalling something. After a moment, he looked taken aback and asked: "Then the black pill I took when I broke through to Martial Master that year, was it also an Gathering Qi Pill?"
Ji Qi Dan, as its name suggests, can condense the true energy within the body. Especially for cultivators who are stuck at a bottleneck and unable to make progress, it is an invaluable divine pill! In those years, he spent two years trying to break through the Wu Shi level but was unable to do so. It wasn't until his sister gave him a black medicinal pellet that he finally broke through three days later. He thought it was just a coincidence, but little did he know, everything was secretly arranged by his sister...
He thought he was very fond of her and treated her well, but it turned out that his sister had done so many things for them without their knowledge. Thinking about this, a complex emotion swirled in his heart, lingering on.
At the same time, on the other side, Tang Xin, who was kidnapped by Wu Zong, was taken to a desolate wilderness. Since she didn't resist or cry out throughout the journey, and there wasn't even a hint of Wu's power in her body, he also let his guard down. As soon as they arrived at an uninhabited place, he released her.
"I never thought I'd have such good fortune, tsk, tsk, a truly rare beauty." After Wu Zong released her, he began to undress himself, untying the belt around his waist, step by step approaching Tang Xin, with an evil tone: "Come and keep me company, I can make your death a little more pleasant."
Tang Xin raised the corner of her lips in a seemingly smiling yet not quite smiling glance at Wu Zong, slowly and neatly smoothing out the wrinkles on her skirt that he had caused. As she watched him step closer, she said: "If you can tell me who is behind this, I might consider letting you die a little more quickly."
"Haha! Joke! You think you can?" He sneered at her with a contemptuous glance, his lecherous gaze lingering on her slender and delicate figure, but before he could make another move, a soft voice with a hint of laughter whispered in his ear.
"Not bad, I'm going all out!"
Tang Xin suddenly appeared behind him, and in an instant, several cold lights flashed by, shooting into the body of that Wu Zong. Wu Zong stood stiffly with his eyes wide open, his face filled with incredulity, his heart like a stormy sea, shocked to the point where he couldn't utter a single word, and cold sweat poured down his back, wanting to move but unable to do so.
When did she come to his back? He was completely unaware! With Wu Zong's strength, how could he be hit by this little girl's move? This is too sinister! Too sinister!
"What are you saying? Or not?" She smiled and walked around him, stopping in front of him. Her absolutely beautiful face had a harmless smile on it, but it made that martial arts master's heart turn cold, his gallbladder tremble, and his hair stand on end.
He wanted to use Wu Zong's intimidation to deter her, but unexpectedly the intimidation that emanated from him seemed transparent to her, and had no effect whatsoever. Seeing that she was unaffected by Wu Zong's intimidating aura, he stuttered in incredulity.
"You, you can't cultivate martial power, can you? You're unable to cultivate, aren't you? How is it possible that you're not intimidated by my pressure..."
Tang Xin raised an eyebrow and glanced at him, but didn't answer his question. Instead, she asked: "Who sent you to make a move on the Xiang Mansion? Who is the person behind all this?"
"You don't have to think about getting any news from me, I know nothing!" Wu Zong swallowed hard, although he was terrified in his heart, but still forced himself to calm down.
"Oh? Is that so?" She took out a bottle from her bosom, dripped a drop onto the ground, and even the ground was corroded. The martial arts master's eyes widened in horror as he stared at her.
Corpse water! It's actually corpse water! That's the poisonous potion developed by Gui Shou Tian Yi, due to its strong corrosiveness, the amount of corpse water circulating in the market is very small. Even a powerful martial artist like him can't get his hands on a bottle, so how did she, a young lady from a noble family who has been raised in a deep boudoir, manage to obtain such a thing?
"Since you won't talk, I'll just have to let you taste this corpse water then." She carelessly played with the bottle in her hand, a sly smile spreading across her lips as she opened the bottle and raised it above his head, pretending to pour it down.
Seeing the corpse water about to pour down on his head, Wu Zong was so frightened that he lost his soul, and could no longer care about anything. He hastily begged for mercy: "Don't don't! I'll say it, I'll say it..." Betraying the organization would be death, falling into her hands would also be death, he just hoped to die a little more quickly.
Corpse water...... If the corpse water really poured down from his head, it would corrode even skin and flesh, that kind of pain that's worse than death, he really didn't dare to imagine.
"Speak!" she shouted sternly, her smile disappearing from her face, her eyes cold as frost.
After being scolded like that, and then meeting her icy gaze again, the proud Wu Zong expert actually felt a hint of fear in his heart, and hastily said: "I, I only knew that man wanted to buy Tang Zhengyu's life, we sent out men to intercept and kill him, but didn't see him die before he left, knowing that Tang Zhengyu was rescued and taken back, the higher-ups instructed us to witness his death with our own eyes, so we planned to cut the grass and eliminate the roots overnight... Ah..."
A shrill, mournful cry suddenly pierced the dark sky, startling the birds in the forest to flutter and fly away. The only thing that could be seen was that the powerful warrior had vanished into thin air right before her eyes, leaving behind only wisps of white smoke rising from the ground...
A flash of coldness flickered across her eyes, and she swept the ground with a glance. She raised her head to look at the sky, turned around and walked into the forest. In the quiet and dark woods, only her ethereal figure was seen gradually disappearing into the night...
Digression
Tomorrow... Tomorrow someone will come out...
