Chapter 990: I’m a Good Person
This was the same poison as the one used to deal with the people from Little Silver Mountain and Wu Feng Hall. However, after Ling Chuxi little tweaks of improvement, the effect of the poison had more than doubled. Back then, even Qiu Gaohe, who was also good at using poisons, was afraid of it. So, one could only imagine how powerful this strengthened version was.
If it wasn’t for the fact that the Gongxi clan’s endurance was far better than ordinary people, they might have already pulled out their blades and committed suicide.
“You are despicable!” Gongxi Kuangdao’s entire body trembled as he cursed in a hoa.r.s.e voice.
“Despicable? If I let you refine some kind of holy blade and cause trouble for Golden Pill Sect, would you have let us off so easily?” Ling Chuxi sneered before continuing, “I’ve already shown you mercy. You are just suffering a little bit of physical pain. Oh, no, you don’t even need to suffer. It’s just an itch and numbness for a while. You’ll be fine in three to five days at most.”
Three to five days? Even if it was another hour, Gongxi Kuangdao probably would have rather committed suicide.
“What on Earth do you want?” Gongxi Kuangdao shouted hysterically.
“Didn’t I already tell you? I just wanted to find someone to be my guinea pig.” said Ling Chuxi innocently as she looked at Gongxi Kuangdao as if she was looking at an idiot.
“Don’t you just want to learn forging? I’ll teach you.” Gongxi Kuangdao was reluctant to commit suicide in the end. He still had his clansmen waiting for him, but he really couldn’t stand the h.e.l.l-like torture on Earth, so he gnashed his teeth and finally gave in.
“You said it yourself. Don’t say that I forced you to, now or in the future,” said Ling Chuxi. “No matter what, I’m still the sect leader of Golden Pill Sect. If your nonsense ever gets out, I’m afraid things might only get worse for you.”
Gongxi Kuangdao almost spat out a mouthful of blood. If this wasn’t forced, then what was? He had seen shameless people before, but never anyone asas shameless as Ling Chuxi. He’s had enough of this!
“I understand. You didn’t force me. So, hurry up and bring me the antidote,” said Gongxi Kuangdao impatiently.
Ling Chuxi then took out a few pills and threw them over. “You asked for this. I’m a good person. I didn’t force you.”
Gongxi Kuangdao and the others really wanted to bang their heads against the wall when they heard Ling Chuxi’s shameless words. Huangfu Qingjue watched this scene from the sidelines with a faint smile in his eyes. Little Meatball had been in his hands the whole time and it had been feeling quite uncomfortable. It couldn’t take it anymore as it squirmed out of his grip and ran back into Ling Chuxi’s pocket, hugging the insignia in comfort.
Gongxi Kuangdao and the others took the pills and swallowed them without even looking. Immediately, a warm air current rose from their Qi Ocean which instantly flowed through their limbs and bones. Wherever it pa.s.sed by, it swept away the pain and itchiness they were experiencing. Their bodies suddenly felt light, as if they had been reborn.
If it weren’t for the red marks from the scratching, they would have thought that they had had a terrible nightmare.
“Okay, this antidote can last for three days. I will give you the antidote in the three days after,” said Ling Chuxi lazily.
“What, only three days?” Gongxi Kuangdao recalled the feeling of thousands of ants drilling into his heart and felt a chill. If something happened to Ling Chuxi and she missed the three-day period, then…just thinking about it made Gongxi Kuangdao s.h.i.+ver.
“If something happened to you during the three days…” Gongxi Kuangdao blurted out.
“Do you really think I will let anything happen to me?” Ling Chuxi snorted.
Gongxi Kuangdao shut his mouth and his face turned green.
A demon! Ling Chuxi was a demon.
