Chapter 989: Long Body and Silver Hair as Calm as the Wind
Before Gongxi Kuangdao landed on the ground, a few of his subordinates were also sent flying back towards Ling Chuxi. They were already much weaker than Huangfu Qingjue, and they had spent a lot of effort to extract the Black Dragon Gold, so they didn’t have the strength to resist at all.
Huangfu Qingjue still stood where he was as if he hadn’t moved at all. His long body, silver hair, and his body were as calm as the wind.
“As a descendant of the divine clan, do you really want to bully the weak like this?” Gongxi Kuangdao taunted sarcastically, knowing that he wouldn’t be able to escape anyway.
“Nonsense. If it’s not the strong that bullies the weak, then will it be the weak that bullies the strong? If you have the ability to, do show me.” Ling Chuxi knew that he was trying to provoke them, so she scolded him. “Stop talking nonsense. Hand over the forging technique honestly and I’ll let you go.”
“You’d better give up that idea. The forging technique of our Gongxi clan has been handed down over generations since ancient times. Even if you kill me, I will never teach you,” said Gongxi Kuangdao through gritted teeth.
Ling Chuxi had originally thought that they had hidden the forging secret on them, so she was willing to let them go once they had handed it over. After hearing what he said, she naturally couldn’t let them go anymore.
“Kill you? Why would I kill you? We had no grudges in the past. At most, it’s just a small grudge. What’s in it for me to kill you?” Ling Chuxi smiled. Then she turned to Huangfu Qingjue and said, “Forget it. Let’s go.”
“Go? Just like that?” Gongxi Kuangdao looked at Ling Chuxi in disbelief. Didn’t she just want to learn the Gongxi clan’s forging technique? Why did she give up so quickly? Was she moved by his heroic spirit of facing death? No, that shouldn’t be the case. No matter how he looked at it, Ling Chuxi didn’t seem like that kind of person.
This was nonsense. Although Ling Chuxi wasn’t a bad person, she wasn’t a good person either.
Gongxi Kuangdao had almost taken her life the first time they met. But after that, he had spent his hours calculating how he would exact revenge on Golden Pill Sect. How could Ling Chuxi let him off so easily?
Gongxi Kuangdao was puzzled for a while before he finally realized the reason.
Itchy, heart-piercing itchiness was spreading from his meridians to his brain from the depths of his bone marrow. It was as if countless ants were waking up in the depths of his body and biting at his meridians and bone marrow.
“Ah!!” Gongxi Kuangdao couldn’t help but let out a scream.
The cultivation method of the Gongxi clan was based on body cultivation. Whether it was endurance or perseverance, they were far better than ordinary people. However, at this moment, when the numbness and itchiness entered his mind, his entire body started to tremble. He wanted to just cut open his body with a blade.
And those few subordinates had long been screaming in heart-piercing pain and itchiness. They fell to the ground and rolled around, constantly using their fingers to scratch all over their bodies. Every time they scratched, their bodies would appear red and swollen like a centipede, the malevolence and distortion even made Gongxi Kuangdao’s scalp go numb when he saw it.
“What did you do?” asked Gongxi Kuangdao as he tried hard to restrain himself from scratching.
“Oh, it’s nothing. You know that besides medicing and alchemy, Golden Pill Sect also knows quite a bit about poisons. I just concocted some and was worried that I wouldn’t be able to find anyone to test it on. Anyway, you guys have already made up your mind to pick a fight with Golden Pill Sect, so I’ll let you guys have a go at it right now. Since we’re all enemies, I think you won’t have any objections to me doing this, right? said Ling Chuxi.
‘No! Who said I wouldn’t mind?!’ Gongxi Kuangdao’s whole body was tingling and itchy. His eyes were so red that they were almost bleeding. He wasn’t afraid of death. However, living a life worse than death was even more terrifying.
