Leaving the grocery store, Li Hengsheng imdiately saw there was a drugstore across the street.
Li Hengsheng sat at the nearby tea stall for a while; about an hour later, he went directly inside.
The drugstore was almost empty, with only a shopkeeper doing accounts.
Li Hengsheng pondered for a mont and directly took out ten taels of silver, placing them on the counter.
The shopkeeper, seeing the ten taels of silver, imdiately smiled and said, "What would the custor like to buy?"
"Do you have any potent poisons?"
Li Hengsheng asked directly.
"Poisons?"
The shopkeeper was taken aback and then looked at Li Hengsheng with a strange expression, saying, "Please don’t joke, sir. This shop does honest business."
"Honest business?"
Li Hengsheng smiled, with an expression of seeing through the facade but not exposing it.
Since entering the store, Li Hengsheng had already slled a bloody scent. More importantly, during the hour he observed from outside, many people sneaked in and bought a lot of unspeakable items.
If this were an honest shop, Li Hengsheng wouldn’t believe it.
The shopkeeper said they did honest business only because he wasn’t a regular, so he chose to be discreet.
"You won’t lack money." Li Hengsheng glanced at his storage ring, which still had over five hundred taels of silver.
It should be enough.
"So what kind of poison is the guest looking to buy?" The shopkeeper leaned in carefully, saying.
"Follow ."
Li Hengsheng went directly to the backyard, and the shopkeeper quickly followed.
Li Hengsheng placed the Archbishop on the ground and then said, "Poison him to death for , and these three hundred taels of silver are yours."
"Poison him to death?"
The shopkeeper was first shocked, but seeing the silver in Li Hengsheng’s hand, he patted his chest, assuring, "Okay, don’t worry, sir. If he’s still breathing, I’ll eat my shop’s sign."
After speaking, he directly took out a bottle of poison, pried open the Archbishop’s mouth, and poured it in.
But after a while, the Archbishop’s breathing was still even.
Li Hengsheng sat on the side drinking tea and said, "Keep going, bring out your best stuff; this person has deep cultivation, you need sothing strong."
"Hey, don’t worry, sir, we’re just getting started."
The shopkeeper chuckled.
Then he began administering a variety of poisons to the Archbishop.
But no matter how much poison was administered, the Archbishop’s complexion remained rosy, and his breathing was still even.
Even his pulse was strong and powerful.
Li Hengsheng watched, but the shopkeeper’s face grew increasingly solemn.
So many poisons had no effect?
"You don’t have anything stronger? Like the Ghost-devouring Rhinoceros Beetle?" Li Hengsheng asked as well.
"Sir, you must be joking; how could this shop have such things? They are exceedingly hard to acquire, and for re three hundred taels, it’s impossible to buy a Ghost-devouring Rhinoceros Beetle."
"If you can’t kill him, I won’t be giving a penny." Li Hengsheng shook his head.
"Damn, I’ve used so many poisons that the cost already exceeds three hundred taels, but never mind, I don’t believe they can’t kill this old thing today!"
"Just wait!"
With that, the shopkeeper went into the storehouse, returning after about half a stick of incense ti with a paper package in hand.
"Sir, I can’t ruin my reputation without making a profit. I’ll use this treasure to ensure you get your money’s worth!"
Seeing the drugstore’s shopkeeper’s fierce expression, Li Hengsheng was curious about what it was.
Only to see the shopkeeper open the paper package, revealing blood-red powder.
He mixed the powder with a black liquid, which turned into a strange purple color.
It bubbled away.
Li Hengsheng, also slightly surprised, couldn’t help but ask, "What is this?"
"This is Blood Bamboo Flower pollen," the shopkeeper chuckled and said, "This stuff is extrely poisonous. Let tell you, it’s the treasure of my shop. We’ve had offers to buy, but I was reluctant to sell. Today, you’re getting it cheap. The effect of Blood Bamboo Flower pollen combined with this Black Saliva River water is..."
As he spoke, he poured the bowl of poison down the Archbishop’s throat.
The entire bowl went down.
But after waiting for a stick of incense ti, there was still no reaction from the Archbishop.
He was still alive and well.
"How could it be..." the shopkeeper’s face was ashen as he sat on the ground, sowhat distraught.
"Impossible!"
The shopkeeper still couldn’t believe it.
"He’s still alive!" Li Hengsheng was also baffled.
"Could your poison be expired?" Li Hengsheng frowned and asked, "How long has it been stored?"
"Uh..."
The shopkeeper pondered for a mont, "Passed down from my grandfather’s generation, could it really have expired?"
Hearing these words, Li Hengsheng could only sigh.
What a scam.
They’re selling expired goods.
"Hmm..."
At this mont, a "hmm" sound unexpectedly ca from the Archbishop’s mouth.
This startled Li Hengsheng!
Oh no!
This old guy is waking up.
If he wakes up, I’m dood.
However, just then, the Archbishop slowly opened his eyes.
"Damn you!"
Li Hengsheng couldn’t help but curse. I asked you to poison him, but instead, you revived him!
Without a word, Li Hengsheng bolted.
Displaying Thunderbolt Rush to its fullest, Li Hengsheng moved incredibly fast. However, all the Ghost Race in the streets of Fengdu City could sense the presence of a Human Race, but by the ti they tried to see where this human was from, Li Hengsheng’s figure had already vanished.
Li Hengsheng strode quickly out of Fengdu City, then, orienting himself, he fled toward Ghost City.
If I reach Ghost City, I might still have a chance to survive.
If this old guy dares to break into Ghost City, City Lord Xu Zhi’an is not one to let things slide.
He might just provoke them into fighting.
But just as Li Hengsheng hadn’t gone ten miles from Fengdu City, behind him ca a surge of imnse energy!
"Li Hengsheng!"
That voice was like a vast wave, sweeping up sand, almost overturning the land.
Feeling this intimidating aura, Li Hengsheng was also taken aback, the old guy was catching up.
Trying to escape from a Great Martial Sect’s clutches is nothing short of a pipe dream.
If I had known, I wouldn’t have done this. I should have left much earlier.
But now it’s too late; how can I, running, possibly outrun soone who can fly?
A figure suddenly descended from the sky!
It was the Archbishop.
"You think you can still run?" At this mont, the Archbishop of the Longevity Sect looked at Li Hengsheng full of malice. He had never suffered such a loss before, inexplicably following Li Hengsheng into a city, only to be inexplicably transported to so unknown world, nearly beaten to death inside.
Now, though he was severely injured, thankfully, it didn’t hinder him from capturing Li Hengsheng.
Li Hengsheng saw the Archbishop blocking his path and felt desperate.
Out here in the wilds, there’s no way a miracle would occur, and no one would co to save him.
"The pain I’ve endured, I want to reclaim from you. Anyway, the Realm Master Cangyuan only needs one living Li Hengsheng!"
The Archbishop approached with a cold smile.
Li Hengsheng’s heart nearly stopped.
He could only surrender and wait for death.
Father, I’m sorry, your son is useless and couldn’t help you.
Li Hengsheng sighed softly.
Just when the Archbishop was less than ten ters away from Li Hengsheng, a strange noise suddenly ca from the Archbishop’s stomach.
The Archbishop’s face imdiately turned peculiar.
He clutched his stomach, and then his expression turned pained, the next mont, he let out an explosive, foul-slling fart!
"What the..."
The Archbishop broke into a cold sweat, then pointed at Li Hengsheng and said, "You stay there, I’ll be right back."
With that, he turned and ran.
Li Hengsheng was dumbfounded. Was the Archbishop of the Longevity Sect having diarrhea?
"Huh?"
Moreover, Li Hengsheng suddenly noticed, at this ti, the Archbishop’s cultivation realm was continuously dropping!
Previously, it was inscrutable, but now he could feel that the Archbishop’s realm had fallen to the ordinary Innate Realm.
Postnatal Peak...
Postnatal Great Perfection...
What’s happening?
Did so poison take effect?
If you have no cultivation power, why should I be afraid of you?
Li Hengsheng directly followed behind!
Rounding a green stone, Li Hengsheng found the Archbishop squatting on the ground, pants down, looking pained. Seeing Li Hengsheng approach, the Archbishop gritted his teeth and asked.
"Do you... have any paper?"
