Chapter 119: Your daddy doesn’t like the looks of you
Han Yunxi was scared. Without another thought, she bit viciously into the masked man’s hand! Seeing this, Qingyi and the other masked assassins were all struck dumb. Although master admired Han Yunxi’s poison skills and wanted to train her in their ranks, she’d only be courting death with her current actions!
Master liked those who deferred to him and were absolutely obedient. Amidst the shocked stares of the crowd, everything seemed to freeze in time.
“Let go!” the low voice that came from above her was filled with the suppressed silence of the calm before the storm.
But Han Yunxi seemed not to have heard. She bit down with a do-or-die desperation, hoping that the other would release her instead. When an intense bolt of pain traveled up his arm, the masked man’s eyes filled with doubt. His anger dissipated, to be replaced with a never before seen amusement. “Han Yunxi, are you poisoning your lord?”
What kind of poison was this? He wasn’t able to sense it until just now.
Han Yunxi’s teeth turned stiff before she released him and looked back, openly admitting her deed. “Yes, and what’s more, you’ve already been poisoned!”
At her words, the masked man burst out into laughter. “Good! Very good!” He really had been poisoned. This should be the first time anyone had successfully done the deed.
“Is it very funny?” Han Yunxi said coldly. She’d injected him with a modern-day toxin, a dose of highly concentrated vitamins. Vitamins were good things but cause acute poisoning when taken in excess that affected the functions of the body, eventually leading to death. Vitamins existed in the past, but there was no way to extract them separately in large quantities to make into poison. If the poison didn’t exist, it meant that its antidote didn’t, either!
No matter how formidable this person’s poison skills were, he’d be helpless against a crisis once poisoned. He couldn’t feel the effects now, but it wouldn’t be long before he was wracked with pain.
“Han Yunxi, you’re growing more and more interesting to your lord,” the masked man said. He raised his hand and carelessly kissed away the fresh blood on the skin. “Your lord will take you back and have you slowly treat the poison.” So speaking, he grabbed Han Yunxi by the waist and threw her over his shoulders before turning to leave.
Han Yunxi kicked and pounded his back with her fists. “Let me go! I’m the only one who can treat your poison! If you don’t want to die, then let me go!”
“Within an hour, you’ll definitely die from its effects.”
“You don’t know what you’ve been poisoned with, right?”
……
The masked man allowed Han Yunxi to keep struggling as he kept her imprisoned. Unexpectedly, it was right at this time that a red shadow suddenly appeared before them. He descended from the skies, his lavish wide sleeves fluttering in the wind. It made him seem like a flicker of flame dancing in the air, half-divine half-demonic, half-dream half-fantasy.
So beautiful! That was Han Yunxi’s first thought. When the masked man said that they’d been followed, did he mean by this guy?
A red shadow, is he Gu Qishao? Just when Han Yunxi was filled with doubts, the figure teased, “Poison lass, missed me yet?”
It really is him! Han Yunxi rejoiced inwardly. Unexpectedly, this guy was even more good-looking than she imagined.
“Who are you?” the masked man asked coldly, growing guarded. This person’s martial arts weren’t ordinary. He knew that Long Feiye’s men were behind the poison mosquito swarm but hadn’t caught the existence of this red-robed man.
“Fellow brother, it’s not good to bully a weak girl like this, hm?” Gu Qishao grinned, his stunning smile capable of felling entire nations.
“What’s it to you?” the masked man asked loftily, extremely disdainful.
Who knew that the extraordinarily attractive Gu Qishao suddenly started to swear, “It’s none of my business. But it’s a shame that your daddy doesn’t like the looks of you!”
“You want to die?!” the black-robed man held Han Yunxi with one hand while he floated to the air, immediately releasing a slew of hidden darts.
Dootdoot!
Han Yunxi’s detox system alarms reminded her that there was poison!
“There’s poison! It’s snake powder!” Han Yunxi warned. The weapons themselves were just a pretense. At the same time that they were released, poisonous snake powder filled the air. Once inhaled, the victim would be poisoned. It was impossible to guard against this type of poisoning!
The masked man shot Han Yunxi a disbelieving look, surprised that she’d recognized his poison at one glance. But Gu Qishao only laughed.
“Poison lass, don’t worry. Big brother’s not afraid!” he held his breath and took a blood-red whip from his waist before viciously lashing it their way.
Dootdoot!
The detoxification system gave another alarm, there was poison in the vicinity! And the method used to disperse the poison was the same as the masked man. At the same time the whip cracked over, poison powder was scattered into the air. No wonder Gu Qishao wasn’t afraid of the poisonous mosquitoes, he was a poisons expert as well. Han Yunxi couldn’t help but be bewildered. Why were poison experts suddenly showing up all over the place?
