Dongfang Mian waved her hand, "Actually, money isn't important. Just tell me some news, and I'll give you this Soulless Fruit."
"What news?" The Shi family head didn't think ordinary news was worth a Soulless Fruit.
"Tell me, where is that Poison Mother of the Swamp Forest?" Dongfang Mian asked casually.
"Poison Mother!" The Shi family head exclaimed in surprise, then immediately said with a blank expression, "What is Poison Mother? I don't understand."
"Alright, stop pretending. The Shi family is a family that specializes in poisons. How could they not even know about the Poison Mother? This makes me have a very bad impression of the Shi family. Fine, if you don't want to tell me, then forget it. I can go find it myself, it'll just take a little more time," Dongfang Mian said irritably.
The so-called "Poison Mother" is the origin of a poisonous land. Poisonous swamps and miasma valleys are all examples of how a Poison Mother first appeared in this area. It could be a poisonous creature or a poisonous flower or herb. These poisonous creatures lived on this land for a long time, and slowly the toxins spread, forming a poisonous land. Some extremely large poisonous lands may have many Poison Mothers at the same time. Dongfang Mian has heard that there are many such large poisonous lands in the Ghost Realm of the Human World.
Upon hearing this, the Shi family head looked at Dongfang Mian with a troubled expression. He did know what the Poison Mother was, but he couldn't say it. The Poison Mother was the source of the poisonous land. Once Dongfang Mian took the Poison Mother away, this poisonous land would perish in a short time. The poisonous land they were going to was a very important source of poisonous creatures in the Medicine Domain. Once the poisonous creatures inside died out, the entire poisonous drug market in the Medicine Domain would be severely disrupted.
"Miss Dongfang, please don't be angry. I'm just worried that you might be in danger. You should know that the place where the Poison Mother is located is extremely dangerous. Even I can't guarantee that I'll escape unscathed..." The Shi family head tried to persuade Dongfang Mian.
Dongfang Mian didn't waste any words and directly released some of her aura. The Shi family head immediately shut up. He never expected that this young girl in front of him would be of equal strength to him.
“Our strengths are evenly matched, and I am an Emperor-level Poison Master. If I want to escape unscathed, I should be able to do so,” Dongfang Mian said.
“Yes, if Miss Dongfang had told me sooner, I would have told you already. With your strength, I don’t need to worry about you. How about this, I’ll have my men draw a map of the location of the Poison Mother later, which will save you a lot of time,” the Shi family head immediately changed his tune.
Now, Dongfang Mian is far more important to him than the Poison Land. If he can befriend Dongfang Mian, not only will he be able to get away with the small Poison Land of the Medicine Domain, but Dongfang Mian might even be able to take them to the great Poison Land of the Ghost Domain to broaden their horizons.
"Thank you very much then," Dongfang Mian said without any politeness.
“Miss Dongfang, please don’t be so polite. I’ll arrange accommodations for you right away, and I guarantee you’ll be satisfied,” said the head of the Shi family.
"No need, I will come on the day of departure," Dongfang Mian said and walked out.
The head of the Shi family followed closely behind, and when he saw Yan Lin and A Ju waiting outside, he greeted them warmly and then personally saw them off at the Shi family gate.
The Grand Protector was quite surprised. Although he knew that the Shi family needed a high-level poison master, he did not expect that the Shi family head would value Dongfang Mian so much. Was there something he did not know? In any case, the Grand Protector now had more confidence in Dongfang Mian's ability to save the young master.
While the Grand Protector was lost in thought, the Shi family head had already put away his smile and said to him, "Come in, I have something to ask you."
The Great Protector immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
