Chapter 142 (1/2)
Chapter 142 – Silencing People (4)
“Were you the one who poisoned them?” Number Two couldn’t resist asking.
The corner of Ning Xuemo’s lips hooked up slightly. “What do you think?” Like this the ball was tossed to him.
In the end, Number Two shut his mouth and stopped asking.
“Loathsome girl! What sinister thing did you give us? Quickly, give us the antidote!” Zhong Rushuang endured the pain and loudly shouted at Ning Xuemo.
“Is it painful?” Ning Xuemo was standing charmingly on top of a thorn, that was swaying to and fro, without making Ning Xuemo fall.
“Little girl, quickly help detoxify us. We will forget about this offense…” One of the youths, who was once wearing a white cloth, which was now grey from dust, knew that it was not the moment to be brave or stubborn. He tried to conciliate with Ning Xuemo.
“If I detoxify your poison, will it not be easier for you to attempt to silence us again? Are you people crazy or did you think I was crazy?” Ning Xuemo giggled as she said words that could infuriate those people to death.
“We, we didn’t try to kill you in order to silence you…. It… We were only pranking you earlier. We just wanted to scare you so you will give us the fire crystal core. We didn’t really intend to kill you…” Zhong Rushuang tried to endure the pain and stand up several times, but she could not jump on her feet to take revenge on Ning Xuemo. The pain started from her forehead and had spread to her body from there, rendering her helpless and feeling as if she was being cut to pieces by a hatchet and sliced by thousands of blades. She could not even muster any strength to sit.
“Is that so?” Ning Xuemo pursed her little mouth into a smile. She was not so polite about exposing Zhong Rushuang’s lies. “Aren’t you afraid that this matter about wanting to rob the crystal core will reach the crown prince’s ears and you would not be able to explain yourself in front of him? Therefore, you want to silence us and destroy our corpses. Killing us would solve all your troubles, am I right?”
Zhong Rushuang’s complexion paled. This little girl had unexpectedly guess everything correctly!
