356 Lady Poison Strikes (2/2)

Jin Gang yelled out, and he instinctively jumped back, like a cat with its tail caught, for he knew better than anyone about the effects of her poison.

Seeing Jin Gang's panicked reaction, Xiao Luo erred on the side of caution and backed off, holding his breath to avoid ingesting the strange fumes.

After the fumes dissipated, the three remained standing in a straight line with Fu Yiren in between the two of them. The fire in their eyes cooled, and along with it, their battle frenzy.

”Lady poison, just what are you doing here?!” Jin Gang scowled.

”The director does not wish to see either of you getting injured, so it's time for you both to stop,” Fu Yiren said, in no uncertain terms, then she smiled cheekily and quipped, ”I declare this match as a tie!”

”This is a matter between the both of us, stay out of it… leave!”

Xiao Luo snapped as he still felt the lust for battle, and he would not allow this woman to intervene.

Jin Gang gasped, for fearless as he was, and despite being a Grade-S warrior, he was still afraid of Fu Yiren's ability with poisons. She had once beaten him up in the past, and despite the embarrassment, he never once considered taking revenge as he had no effective way to counter her toxins.

”Cough, cough...”

Jin Gang winked at Xiao Luo discreetly, signaling for him not to provoke Fu Yiren.

”I'm sorry, I didn't catch you… what did you say?” Fu Yiren responded, riled up over Xiao Luo's curt remark.

Fu Yiren gave Xiao Luo a coy smile when she spoke, but her glowering eyes told a different story—she would not take no for an answer.

Suddenly, Fu Yiren's green viper appeared from Xiao Luo's back. It hissed with jaws wide open baring its venomous fangs and looked like it was about to strike Xiao Luo's exposed neck.

Jin Gang gasped and immediately checked his body for the second snake, and only after he determined there was none did he let out a sigh of relief.

The crowd turned pale and was aghast at the sight of the venomous serpent crawling behind Xiao Luo's neck. They had not expected Fu Yiren to drop her pet viper on Mie.

Ji Siying panicked, and without a second thought, she ran up to plead with Fu Yiren. She shuddered at the sight of the snake coiled up on Xiao Luo's shoulder, and hurriedly turned to Fu Yiren, begging, ”Ms. Yiren, we are all part of the NSA, please spare him and retrieve your snake.”

Fu Yiren smiled coldly and replied, ”Well, it's none of your concern, so you should get the hell out of here.”

”Ms. Yiren, please, this is Mr. Mie's first visit to headquarter, and he is still learning many things, please don't...”

”Get lost!”

Fu Yiren's face took on a dark, grim expression, and she suddenly waved her left arm at Ji Siying, releasing a cloud of toxic fumes.
