Chapter 69 The Secret Troubles of Long Tianxiao

“Of course I believe you . That’s because if you had lied just now, the current you would already be a corpse . ” Long Chen’s light words were filled with self-confidence .

Chen Fei was greatly alarmed . But examining his body, he didn’t notice any changes .

“That pill that I threw out is called the Soul Burning Pill . Even if you completely stopped your breath just now, it would have been completely useless . That poisonous gas directly erodes yours pore to enter your blood . If you use too much strength or fight intensely, your blood will begin to flow quicker and the poison will immediately invade your spirit . At that time, your death would be doubtless,” explained Long Chen .

Chen Fei’s expression changed . He had never imagined that Long Chen’s poison pill would be so terrifying . But since Long Chen already trusted him, he definitely wouldn’t deceive him now .

“The reason I believe you is because I am confident in my pills . If you had lied when I questioned you just now, your blood would have begun circulating faster . Then blood would flow out of your seven apertures . Here, eat this . ”

Long Chen handed Chen Fei a medicinal pill . Chen Fei didn’t even think about it before directly swallowing it .

“After taking this pill, the poison in your body will be destroyed . However the effect is a bit slow, so you cannot undergo any intense fights for the next three days . Ok, let’s go . ”

Long Chen directly started walking back home . Chen Fei hastily went to keep up with him . They left behind a miserable area of blood and severed limbs .

. . . .

“b.a.s.t.a.r.d, you actually dare try to kill Long Chen behind my back? Do you think that I don’t dare kill you?” Within a secret room, a white-robed man was angrily cursing at Xia Changfeng . A murderous aura came from him .

At the same time, a terrifying killing intent seemed to take solid form and locked Xia Changfeng in place . It was as if a sharp blade was being held to Xia Changfeng’s neck . As long as the white-robed man wished it, his life would be over in an instant .

“Brother Luo, listen to me . This wasn’t done by me! My sister ordered my subordinates . I know nothing about it!”

Xia Changfeng was completely terrified as he tried to explain the situation . Sweat had completely drenched his robes . That killing intent was just too terrifying . Even he, a Blood Condensation expert, was unable to block it . He felt as if he were a tiny ant that was completely unable to resist .

“Do you think I’m an idiot? Do you really think your guards would follow the orders of your sister without your go-ahead? You obviously wanted to remove that thorn Long Chen before you left . It’s lucky that Long Chen didn’t die, otherwise this matter would have truly blown up . Even if you had ten lives, you wouldn’t be able to block the anger from those higher-ups,” coldly shouted the white-robed man .

Xia Changfeng lowered his head and didn’t dare say anything . It was true that the a.s.sa.s.sination attempt of Long Chen had been arranged by Xia Baichi, but the white-robed man was entirely correct . He had lent his personal guards to her .

He had hoped that once Long Chen was dead, he could push the blame onto Xia Baichi . With her Pill Adept status, she should be fine .

Having already borrowed so much money from Xia Baichi at the auction, he had been forced by her to provide help .

But he hadn’t expected that a group of Blood Condensation experts would fail and only have three of their members return . But before he could even clearly ask what had happened, that white-robed man had already arrived .

“Xia Changfeng, this is your last warning . Your matters are small . If the bigger plots go wrong, let alone you, even your entire Grand Xia is unable to handle the punishment . Go back and tell your stupid sister that if she once more dares take such a rash course, I will personally twist off her head . That old pervert Wei Cang never once truly placed her in his eyes,” coldly snorted the white-robed man .

“Yes, yes, Changfeng will definitely properly instruct his sister . I definitely won’t cause any more trouble . ” Xia Changfeng nodded his head over and over .

“Long Tianxiao has already stated that if anything unexpected happens to his wife or son, he will give up his border post and kill his way into the capital . That is the situation we want to avoid the most, do you understand?” The white-robed man coldly continued, “We’ve been constantly testing his bottom line, but Long Tianxiao refuses to give us any reaction . However that doesn’t mean that he doesn’t care about his wife and son . He is someone who either doesn’t take action or strikes like thunder . That is him warning you guys, but you idiots weren’t even able to understand that . ”

“Brother Luo, I still don’t understand . With brother Luo’s skill, why don’t you directly kill Long Tianxiao?” asked Xia Changfeng .

“Idiot, if I really could just take action in the open, do you think I’d still need you guys? Furthermore, Long Tianxiao is also a Muscle Rebirth expert . How is he so easy to kill? If I don’t succeed in one blow and news of it spreads, who is going to take responsibility for that?” cursed the white-robed man .

Xia Changfeng immediately felt awkward, but he didn’t dare retort . He just endured it obediently . But his hatred towards Long Chen only continued to grow .

Xia Baichi’s actions were actually something he had also wanted . But since Long Chen hadn’t died, the anger inside him could only continue to be stifled .

He really had never imagined that over ten Blood Condensation experts working together would still be unable to succeed . And his losses were actually so great .

When Xia Changfeng returned to his room, that white-robed man sighed . It had not been easy for him to get such an easy mission, but perhaps it wouldn’t be as easy as he had thought .

He had been so enraged just now that he had almost slaughtered Xia Changfeng . But he couldn’t actually do that . The plan had been in motion for many years . In fact, he had originally come here to reap the final profits that someone else had worked for .

But the result was that he felt as if everyone around him was completely stupid, completely infuriating him . He had a stomach full of anger than he had nowhere to let out .
