Poison Mother was already furious at being captured by Dongfang Mian, and now seeing several humans daring to mock her so arrogantly only fueled her rage. In a flash, she climbed onto the elder who was laughing the loudest and spat a mouthful of poison gas into his face.
One second the elder was laughing heartily with his mouth wide open, the next second he turned completely black and collapsed to the ground.
Dongfang Mian hadn't expected this to happen. She hurriedly stepped forward, kicked the troublemaker, Poison Mother, aside, and carefully examined the elder's condition.
Seemingly aware that she had gotten herself into trouble, Poison Mother walked to Dongfang Mian's side with a wronged expression and said, "I didn't mean to. It's just that he was laughing so happily. I didn't spray my natal poison mist. It was just ordinary poison gas. It looks scary, but he'll be fine in a dozen or so breaths."
Dongfang Mian was relieved. Everyone stared intently at the elder lying motionless on the ground. He looked as if he were dead, but after a dozen breaths, the blackness on his body faded, his complexion returned to rosy, and his breathing became smooth again.
Mu Bai squatted down next to the elder with a mischievous grin and said, "Third Elder, are you still able to do it now?"
The Third Elder on the ground was so embarrassed that he wished he had just poisoned himself to death earlier, so he wouldn't have to embarrass himself again after waking up.
"Bai'er, how dare you speak to the Third Elder like that?" the Mu family head said, feigning anger.
Mu Bai stuck out her tongue and stood to the side.
The head of the Mu family stared at the Poison Queen with apprehension. Judging from his strength, it wouldn't take long for this golden ant queen to poison him. He was shocked. How could such a venomous creature be caught, and it seemed to be so obedient to Dongfang Mianfu?
Seeing that Dongfang Mian's move had stunned everyone, Mu Bai smiled and his eyes narrowed. Hmph, let's see who dares to teach him a lesson now.
"So the young lady is also a poison master," the head of the Mu family exclaimed.
"Dongfang Mian, an Emperor-level Poison Master, Patriarch Mu, just call me by my name," Dongfang Mian said calmly.
Upon hearing this, the elders who had been laughing the loudest almost bit their tongues. Good heavens, an Emperor-level Poison Master! Hopefully, she won't remember what they look like.
The head of the Mu family was also surprised, not expecting that Dongfang Mian would be such a high-level poison master. "I wonder which family Dongfang Poison Master comes from?"
"Don't worry, Patriarch Mu, I have no connection with the Shi family," Dongfang Mian said.
The old master of the Mu family blushed. What was going on today? He kept getting shut down for every word he said.
“Not only is Sister Mian not a member of the Shi family, but she also has a grudge against them,” Mu Bai said, then looked at Dongfang Mian and asked, “Sister Mian, may I tell you?”
Dongfang Mian nodded. Seeing the current situation, she knew that the Mu family head wouldn't let her get close to the family head's wife unless she explained things clearly. If she just turned around and ignored it, she couldn't bear to see Mu Bai's desperate expression. So she decided to just say it. If she could cooperate with the Mu family at some point, it would be an unexpected bonus.
So Mu Bai recounted in detail the story of how the Shi family wanted to exchange a baby for the ancestor's blessing for a thousand years during the ancestral worship ceremony, and also talked about how he met Dongfang Mian. He explained everything clearly.
After hearing the whole story, Patriarch Mu was so angry he was about to explode. He slammed his fist on the table and said, "That damn Patriarch Shi! He actually dared to do such a heaven-defying thing. He's utterly inhuman. What he's doing will bring disaster to the entire Medicine Domain."
The elders looked at each other in disbelief, unable to believe that the head of the Shi family would dare to do such a bold thing. They knew that this matter also threatened the Mu family, and they all stared at the head of the Mu family, waiting for him to make a decision.
