Chapter 1392: Chapter 1394 Infernal_1 Chapter 1392: Chapter 1394 Infernal_1 “Could this be a false pretense?” Honglian said with suspicion.
“Let’s invite them to et and find out,” the great elder said, “And if that fails, we still have the drugs to control them.
I doubt they could slip through the palm of my hand.”
He truly needed people now; why else would he take an interest in these two foreigners of unknown origin?
Honglian knew the reason and did not oppose any further.
The recent series of ergencies must be related to Lin Zhu!
Honglian thought furiously, teeth clenched, while an image of soone afla remained stubbornly in her mind, bringing a reddish hue to her eyes.
Over at the Holy Hall, Bai Ruozhu had developed an antidote after analyzing the queen’s poison and had added so detoxification pills.
She handed them to Jianqi, saying, “Secretly deliver these to Elder Xuan Jizi for their protection.”
Jianqi accepted the order and quickly delivered the dicine to Xuan Jizi’s hands.
In the afternoon, Xuan Jizi and his wife Lin Lian were taken to the great elder and Honglian, half invited and half forced by the great elder’s n.
“What are you two foreigners doing in Gaochang?
You’re not harboring any ill intentions, are you?” the great elder asked coldly.
Their faces changed, and Lin Lian, unable to hold her composure, said, “We do have ill intentions, but I’ve heard my enemy is at odds with your Holy Hall.
Are you now standing up for her?”
“Your enemy?” the great elder feigned ignorance as he asked.
Xuan Jizi quickly threw Lin Lian a look, signaling her not to say more.
The great elder noted their behavior, and his suspicion diminished slightly; he would not have believed them if they had started talking about who they had grudges against.
“Don’t feel like talking?” Seeing them silent, he chuckled, “Those at odds with our Holy Hall these days are mostly from Danliang.
You two look like you’re from Danliang, aren’t you?
Could it be you ca targeting them?”
Xuan Jizi bowed to the great elder, “This is a private matter of ours.
We Jianghu people prefer to solve our own problems and would rather not trouble others.”
“How dare you!
This is the great elder of our Holy Hall.
How do you speak to him?
Showing such disrespect to the great elder, do you no longer value your life?” a Holy Guard who brought the couple in shouted sternly.
The great elder raised his hand to silence him and looked at the two with a chuckle, “The enemy of my enemy is my friend, but if you don’t tell the truth, I can’t allow people of unknown origin to leave.
You will inevitably suffer here in the Holy Hall.”
“You…” Lin Lian wanted to curse but was held back by Xuan Jizi.
Honglian spoke up at the right mont, “Why don’t you two share your story?
If there is truly an injustice, the great elder will help you seek justice.”
Xuan Jizi and Lin Lian exchanged glances, both showing hesitation.
Then, Lin Lian gritted her teeth and said, “We have co all the way here seeking revenge against Lin Zhu.
That woman is heartless and cruel.
All I did in Danliang was compete with her for a hairpin, and she poisoned , leaving disfigured like this.”
After speaking, she unveiled her face to reveal a series of hideous blotches.
She had been receiving treatnt for her poison from Bai Ruozhu, which had improved her condition greatly from when it began.
However, the dust toxin required gradual removal due to many years of accumulation.
Even though her condition had improved, her appearance was still quite terrifying.
“Every woman cares deeply about her looks.
How could she do such a thing?
How do you plan to take your revenge?” Honglian stared at Lin Lian as if trying to see through her.
As Lin Lian thought of the person who had poisoned her, the suffering she had endured over the years, and the death of her son, she was overwheld with hatred and all her emotions surged forth.
“I’ll definitely cut him into a thousand pieces, smash his corpse into ten thousand fragnts, carve a hundred and eighty wounds on his face, and then sprinkle salt over them, making her wish for death!” Lin Lian gritted her teeth as she spoke, yet the ‘he’ she referred to wasn’t the ‘she’ Red Lotus and others assud.
The great elder chuckled, “Sprinkling salt?
You should sar honey instead, let ants and bees crawl into her wounds.
That’s the true way to take revenge.”
Lin Lian showed a look of surprise, but soon her face bore a delighted and ferocious smile, “That’s an even better idea, thank you.”
Red Lotus and the great elder exchanged glances, both certain that Lin Lian was fine, as the hatred she just expressed was too genuine to be faked.
“Since you two want vengeance, follow , and I’ll arrange an opportunity for you.
It’s better than crashing around headlessly like flies.” the great elder said, his body suddenly in motion.
From a bottle in his hand, strands of qi wafted out, unexpectedly entering the nostrils of husband and wife Xuan Jizi.
“What are you doing?
Surely this isn’t what cooperation with the great elder looks like, is it?” Xuan Jizi asked indignantly.
“Who said I was going to cooperate with you?
I’ve already said follow .
If you want revenge, from now on you listen to my arrangents, otherwise…” He drew out his words, his face wearing a smug smile.
Xuan Jizi and Lin Lian both clutched their stomachs, beginning to moan in pain.
Red Lotus handed a dicine pill to each of them, saying, “Don’t overthink it.
After the matter is settled, the great elder will surely give you the antidote.
You will achieve what you desire.
Isn’t that a good thing?”
Lin Lian and Xuan Jizi glanced at each other and could only bow their heads and call him master.
“Now go and heal yourself.
In a few days, I’ll arrange for you to seek revenge on Bai Ruozhu,” the great elder said satisfied.
Xuan Jizi and Lin Lian were led away and temporarily stayed near the great elder.
That night, Qingyou Hall again received mysterious visitors.
This ti, it was two people.
Bai Ruozhu was awakened, only then learning that Master Hao Feng had arrived with the unconscious Fen Wan!
She dressed excitedly, quickly arranged her hair, eager to see what the forr Saintess Fen Wan looked like and what was her current state.
Jiang Yichun accompanied her to Chu Hai’s room, where Chu Hai, with red eyes, was evidently just done crying, opened the door.
Bai Ruozhu entered the room and bowed to Hao Feng before finally seeing a beauty, lying on the bed like Sleeping Beauty.
She couldn’t help but move closer, and only then did she truly see Fen Wan’s face.
Startled, she thought, is this Chu Hai’s mother?
She doesn’t look much older than Yu Yao!
“This is the truly fearso aspect of the Reincarnation Poison.
Those poisoned who are lucky enough to survive not only avoid aging but even seem to grow younger.
However, if the poison isn’t cured, the victim’s internal organs will slowly rot away.
To outsiders, it appears as a reversal of aging, becoming younger and younger, while the interior is already decaying, rely watching life slowly diminish until death,” explained Hao Feng in a grave tone.
Bai Ruozhu had only seen the poison in the blood of Chu Hai’s Fen Wan, which wasn’t fully turned, so she didn’t expect such a situation.
Shocked, her hand reached for Fen Wan’s pulse.
But upon feeling it, she sharply retracted her hand, as though sothing had pricked her fingertip…
