"I let you be ungrateful, I let you beco ingrates..."
Minutes later, Tang Ming’s fists hailed down on Chu Batian’s face like raindrops, and each attempt by Xin Badao to get close was t with a rciless kick that sent him flying.
In no ti, Chu Batian’s face was swollen and bruised, resembling a pig’s head, while Xin Badao, after being kicked away for the last ti, simply chose not to get up again.
"Poison Master, we give up, stop hitting us."
Chu Batian, with a whine in his voice, mumbled unclearly.
"Hmph, you understand my power now?" Tang Ming tossed Chu Batian next to Xin Badao and said coldly:
"You have so nerve, betraying the mont you gain a little strength. What use do I have for subordinates like you? I might as well just kill you and be done with it."
"No, no, no, we didn’t betray you. We were just too excited after our breakthrough and wanted to test our skills against you."
Xin Badao hastened to explain, considering Chu Batian’s face turned into a pig head, he felt sowhat relieved. No matter what, he looked much better than Chu Batian; at least his face was unhard, just body pain.
"Yes, yes, yes, we just wanted to test our abilities," Chu Batian also nodded repeatedly.
"Have you had enough of a trial now?" Tang Ming adjusted his clothes and asked coldly.
"We’ve had enough! We understand now! We are no match for you."
Both n shouted in unison.
"Poison Master, what is going on exactly? How can you defeat us without using Gang Qi? Did you have another breakthrough?"
After composing themselves, Xin Badao asked curiously, and Chu Batian’s eyes were also fixed on Tang Ming. Despite the beating, he needed to know why!
"Heh, I might as well tell you. The reason your cultivation has soared after practicing the cultivation technique I improved is that I mixed my own cultivated Poison Skill into your techniques," Tang Ming explained with a faint smile:
"The martial arts I practice are the best for rapidly enhancing cultivation through Poison Skill. Otherwise, why do you think you broke through so swiftly?"
"Oh, and then?"
Both n nodded repeatedly, but still didn’t quite understand what was happening!
"The flaw in the improved cultivation technique is that I can draw upon a cultivator’s Gang Qi at any ti. Simply put, if you try to confront , I can use your Gang Qi to fight, without needing to exert any effort myself."
Tang Ming smiled wickedly; he had anticipated Xin Badao and Chu Batian’s insincerity from the beginning. He had dared to teach them the revised technique because he had already prepared a contingency.
"That’s just heaven-defying!"
Xin Badao and Chu Batian were both stunned. In this way, it ant that they could never defeat Tang Ming in their lifetis. No matter how high their cultivation, in the face of Tang Ming, their own Gang Qi could beco Tang Ming’s weapon. So what was the point in fighting?
Exchanging glances, Xin Badao and Chu Batian were completely despairing. Now that they had practiced this treacherous technique, they could never escape Tang Ming’s control for the rest of their lives, and they would never beco the supre leader of the Poison Sect, for above them would always sit the Poison Master.
"Hmph, I really can’t understand why you would betray ," Tang Ming snorted coldly, speaking with a hostile expression:
"I’ve taught you martial arts and helped your Poison Sect with poison refining, achievents you couldn’t have reached over the years. Without improving your skills, Chu Batian would never have broken through to Six-star in his lifeti, and Xin Badao would’ve needed at least ten more years to make the sa breakthrough. Now, I’ve allowed you to achieve this goal in a short period, yet instead of being grateful, you’re trying to step on ? Have you no conscience at all?"
Chastised by Tang Ming like this, Xin Badao and Chu Batian imdiately felt ashad. Reflecting on it, Tang Ming had indeed brought them unparalleled benefits since taking his position in the Poison Sect, sothing they couldn’t achieve when they were in control. Tang Ming truly had been beneficial to them up to now.
However, because they had just made a breakthrough, these two were fixated on teaching Tang Ming a lesson and venting their frustrations, so they didn’t consider those points. Now they were feeling sowhat regretful.
"Boss Poison, we really just ca to try; we had no other intentions. Please, don’t be angry, alright?"
Xin Badao looked at Tang Ming pitifully and explained sincerely.
"Yes, yes, we won’t dare to do it again in the future."
Chu Batian nodded repeatedly, part out of fear, and part because he no longer had the qualifications or strength.
"What you’re truly thinking, only you yourselves know best," Tang Ming waved his sleeve, sneering as he said:
"I’m not going to make it difficult for you. A beating today will serve as a lesson. Whether there’s a future for you or not will depend on your own decisions."
"What do you an?"
Both Chu Batian and Xin Badao’s faces changed as they asked nervously.
"Do you think I really care so much about that damn Poison Sect?" Tang Ming said dismissively, with an arrogant tone:
"Now that my Poison Skill has reached Great Success, the Poison Sect has no use to . I’m just staying here as the Poison Boss as a favor because you helped recover my cultivation and improve my strength. Since you so desire freedom, then I’ll give it to you. From now on, you can get lost."
"Really?"
Chu Batian was suddenly thrilled. If what Tang Ming said was true, then they could reclaim their power and reign supre again.
"Idiot."
Xin Badao glared fiercely at Chu Batian before looking at Tang Ming and saying:
"Boss Poison, we were truly wrong. From now on, you are the leader of the Poison Sect, and we are willing to follow you wherever you lead."
"Haha, you’re worried I might kill you right now, aren’t you?" Tang Ming looked at Xin Badao with contempt and said indifferently:
"Rest assured, I, Tang Ming, am not a narrow-minded person. Even the Qin Family offended greatly, yet I didn’t annihilate them entirely. It’s your own decision whether you stay or leave. If you stay with , I guarantee your cultivation will continue to advance by leaps and bounds, propelling the Poison Sect to greater heights. You should already have felt the results of this by now. But if you decide to follow , and I find out you still harbor any second thoughts, don’t bla for being rciless. If you don’t want to follow , then scram imdiately and never show your face in front of again. I won’t trouble the Poison Sect."
No sooner had his voice fallen than Tang Ming turned and walked towards the residential area, not giving the two n the chance to decide on the spot. But he was confident that as long as they had a bit of sense, they would know what decision to make.
"What..."
Watching Tang Ming leave like that, Xin Badao was sowhat taken aback. His previous display of loyalty was out of fear that Tang Ming would strike them down. Now that Tang Ming had simply walked away, it seed he was overthinking it and began contemplating what Tang Ming had said.
