Chapter 1909: Chapter 1909 Really Died Innocently
“No, no problem.”
Second Elder quickly shook his head; how could he dare to admit there was a problem?
Even if he had co to gather herbs and refine detoxifying dicine, he wouldn’t dare to say so now, as he certainly wasn’t eager to die.
“As for the dicinal herbs in Poison Valley, you and High Priest Demon Heart are free to dig up as much as you please.”
They were already digging; his objection would be useless, wouldn’t it? Rather, it made sense to do a favor easily given, to offer a face-saving gesture to the two authorities, in hopes of leaving a good impression on them in their minds.
Perhaps that way, securing an antidote might be easier.
Qian Jiyun paid him no attention, instead refocusing on his wife as she gathered herbs.
Next to him, Second Elder swallowed saliva, not daring to even breathe heavily.
He had mostly followed the Young Valley Master in the past; he harbored no grand hopes for getting an antidote for himself, but there were so many disciples in Poison Valley, many of whom were forced into killing, not because they wanted to harm others out in the world.
“Um…sir, may I speak a few words with you? Just a few words.”
He inhaled deeply, mustering the courage to address Qian Jiyun, knowing that an opportunity missed might never co again.
“Speak.”
Seeing that Second Elder was reasonable, Qian Jiyun was not entirely dismissive.
After all, this man was not Liao Fusheng, he did not bear the Liao surna, and judging by Second Elder’s look, he didn’t seem like a bloodthirsty killer; presumably, he did not have many lives on his hands.
Upon hearing his words, Second Elder felt a surge of excitent, nearly leaping for joy.
He steadied his mind, endeavoring to suppress the excitent within.
“Sir, I know that you believe Poison Valley’s disciples have killed too many people, based on the rumors outside, which is why you wish to eliminate Poison Valley.”
“Is it not so?”
Qian Jiyun countered, how could one accurately count the number of Sect disciples slain by Poison Valley disciples, or the number of poisons and dicinal pills they had refined that hard countless civilians?
“No, no, I’m not saying what Poison Valley’s disciples have done outside is false,” Second Elder quickly denied, shaking his head and waving his hands.
The outside world had portrayed Poison Valley so viciously, and much of it was not fabricated; under Liao Valley Master’s leadership, the behavior of Poison Valley’s disciples indeed grew increasingly brazen. The slightest displeasure would lead to killing with poison, and such incidents were not rare.
“But sir, not every disciple of Poison Valley is like that. There are many disciples in Poison Valley who are kind-hearted. Among them, many are not irredeemably wicked and can still reform.
I’m not asking you to grant an antidote, but to spare the lives of those innocent disciples; they…they have been implicated by us and the Valley Master.”
His words were heartfelt; there were over a thousand disciples in Poison Valley, and if they all died, indeed, so would die unjustly.
If they could be saved, then even if he died, he would be content.
“I beseech you and the High Priest to give them a chance to live. Let them join the dical Valley, send them away, or even — I would consent to having them ingest a potion that erases all mories related to Poison Valley if that’s agreeable.”
Listening to Second Elder’s plea, Qian Jiyun’s gaze flickered.
To him, these words seed pointless, but one could not deny that there was so truth to them; if so disciples of Poison Valley truly wished to repent earnestly, they could indeed be allowed to join the dical Valley.
dical Valley has always been dedicated to refining dicinal pills that cure diseases and save people, cultivating dicinal herbs, and when it cos to poisons, they actually don’t know much about them.
