"I have a vial of poison here too; it takes effect twelve hours after contact, so it should be useful."
Inside the room, everyone had looked over the porcelain bottles on the table. Min Yi and Senior Sister Jun each held a bottle and opened their mouths in turn.
As for the other bottles filled with poisonous pills and powders, they don’t act immediately, or they’re not lethal enough, so even if used, they wouldn’t achieve the desired effect.
"Let me see."
Qian Yizheng took both porcelain bottles into his hands and first examined the poison found by Senior Sister Jun.
"This won’t do. It acts within the time we need, and its toxicity is strong, but it’s only a second-grade poisonous pill. If anyone can detoxify it, it would have no effect at all."
"A second-grade poisonous pill is already quite powerful!"
A sect disciple muttered a phrase upon hearing Qian Yizheng’s words.
In his sect, a second-grade pharmacist can walk horizontally, yet in the eyes of these children, second-grade medicine seems as monplace as cabbages, worth nothing?
"Use this poisonous powder; it’s more effective."
Ignoring the muttering, Qian Yizheng placed the poisonous powder Min Yi found on the already cleared table, then turned his gaze to Little Nuonuo.
"Nuonuo, how much of this poisonous powder do you have left?"
"Let me check."
Qian Yinuo squinted at the characters on the porcelain bottle held by his eldest brother, then reached into his Qiankun Bag, rummaging around for quite some time.
Finally, he extracted nothing, and looked up innocently at Qian Yizheng.
"There’s none left; this is the only bottle."
He couldn’t possibly carry a lot of poisonous pills and powders; these were remnants from his mother’s medicine refinement in the planes, and many were secretly stored by him.
Perhaps this poisonous powder was from a single refinement, so he truly didn’t have any more.
"That poison powder is too toxic, and there’s no antidote, plus its transmissibility isn’t good, so... it probably wouldn’t be very effective?"
The little baby quietly reminded that they were poisoning to deal with those two Saintess Sect disciples who entered the City Lord Residence. If this poisonous powder was used, Xiao Yi would be dead a hundred times over, and those two women would still be around.
Upon hearing this, Qian Yizheng glanced once more at the porcelain bottle in his hand.
If this doesn’t work either, does it mean none of the poisonous pills or powders will be usable? Could it be they’re actually waiting for those two women to leave the City Lord Residence? Or perhaps someone among them could infiltrate the residence and kill those two women?
"Then we should think of other methods."
He put away the porcelain bottle, saying.
"Weren’t those two women brought into the City Lord Residence by Xiao Yi? Does Xiao Yi also live there?"
Fifth Senior Brother of the Bright Moon Sect voiced his doubt.
The other two leaders don’t live in the City Lord Residence; each has a courtyard of their own. Could it be that Xiao Yi doesn’t even have his own home and lives in the City Lord Residence with his master Yang Tianxiu?
"This... could definitely be inquired about." Min Yi’s eyes brightened upon hearing this.
If Xiao Yi doesn’t live in the City Lord Residence, those two women would certainly e out, as they’d have to stay with Xiao Yi at his place.
Unless those two women gained the favor of their master Yang Tianxiu in a short time.
"Why don’t we keep closer watch outside the City Lord Residence lately? I’m sure we’ll find an opportunity to kill those two once they leave."
