"What did you say! Let me tell you, all of us here are high-level poison masters, we rely on our strength, unlike you who rose to power through your body. If you anger us, we will definitely make you die from a thousand poisons piercing your heart," a seductive woman said angrily to Dongfang Mian, a venomous snake around her neck flicking its tongue threateningly at Dongfang Mian.
"Oh, what a coincidence. I'm also a high-level poison master. I'm not afraid of you little bug. What do you think we should do about this?" Dongfang Mian casually pinched the snake on the woman's neck, grabbing it by the seven-inch mark and shaking it around in her hand.
"Release the Poison King!" the alluring woman shouted angrily.
"You call this thing a Poison King? Tsk tsk, I suggest you go get your eyes checked," Dongfang Mian said disdainfully, tossing the venomous snake aside before standing up from the rocking chair.
"My purpose in coming here today is simple. Although I don't know how the news spread, I'm very unhappy to be called an old man's concubine who rose to power through her body. I'm not here specifically to clarify, but also to see everyone's strength."
But the result!
I'm very disappointed. If your abilities are as good as your empty words, I think you should just quit now. I don't care if you want to go and die, but wasting my time and trying to annoy me is wrong of you.
The Shi family head should have already informed you that we'll be setting off to collect poisonous creatures in three days. The entire Poisonous Swamp Forest is vast, and I'm sure none of you want to go there and become fertilizer for the poisonous creatures. So, I advise you all to obey my orders without question. That way, if I'm in a good mood, I might even lend you a hand in a life-or-death situation.
If anyone disagrees, I hereby issue a challenge. The rules are simple: a poison-testing contest. Whether it's a King-level, Emperor-level, Saint-level, Divine-level, or even Legendary-level poison, as long as you can produce it, I'll accept!
After Dongfang Mian finished speaking with great momentum, all the poison masters present fell silent. Through the incident of the seductive woman provoking Dongfang Mian, everyone realized that things might not be as they had heard. The strength that Dongfang Mian displayed did make some people feel threatened.
Furthermore, judging from what Dongfang Mian just said, it seems that she was invited by the Shi family head to lead his group of poison masters.
Furthermore, the fact that Dongfang Mian accepted poison of any level made everyone wonder about her cultivation level.
For a time, no one dared to step forward and challenge them.
Dongfang Mian gave a cold laugh, "So everyone's convinced now?"
"I refuse to accept this!" A clear, cold voice came from the doorway.
Looking in the direction of the sound, a woman dressed entirely in black stood at the doorway. The woman exuded a cold and eerie aura, even her lips were black.
"Who are you?" Dongfang Mian asked.
"She is Guiyue, a Saint-level Poison Master," a voice came from among the Poison Masters, seemingly implying a surrender to Dongfang Mian.
Dongfang Mian nodded in satisfaction and said to Guiyue, "So you want to challenge me?"
"Hmph, you're nothing but a clown. You think you're so important just because Patriarch Shi values you? I, Guiyue, started testing poisons at the age of three, passed the poison master exam at seven, passed the King-level poison master exam at seventeen, and am now a Saint-level poison master at thirty-seven. What makes you think you, a flirtatious old woman, can compete with me?" Guiyue said with a disdainful look.
The group of poison masters were also surprised. After all, for cultivators, a hundred or two hundred years would pass in the blink of an eye. They never expected that the Saint-level poison master Guiyue in front of them would be so young. They had always thought that Guiyue was at least a thousand years old.
