Being threatened felt terrible, terribly terrible. Liu Xiaoyuan wished he could send Yang Jing to his death on the spot. However, with his father's life in Yang Jing's hands, Liu Xiaoyuan had no choice but to swallow his anger.
Alas! It seems that even having a god-level invincible system isn't omnipotent, especially when it comes to using poison, which is a weakness.
Liu Xiaoyuan didn't quite believe the words of the god-level invincible. He summoned a master of poison and a doctor with superb medical skills, but even they were not entirely confident in their ability to use this poison.
Finally, Liu Xiaoyuan had no choice but to walk up to Yang Jing and lift him up from the ground.
Yang Jing laughed heartily and said, "Mr. Liu, have you agreed to my request?"
Seeing Yang Jing's smug look, Liu Xiaoyuan immediately punched him in the face.
"Haha, Mr. Liu, you'd better go easy on me. If you kill me, no one will be able to save your father's life," Yang Jing laughed.
Liu Xiaoyuan was furious, but there was nothing he could do. He glared at Yang Jing and asked, "What is it?"
Yang Jing asked knowingly, "So, Mr. Liu, you've agreed to help me?"
Seeing Yang Jing ask such a question when he already knew the answer, Liu Xiaoyuan felt extremely disgusted, but there was nothing he could do.
"Stop talking nonsense, let's just die together!" Liu Xiaoyuan said angrily.
Upon hearing this, Meng Ting, who was sitting on the ground, immediately said, "Mr. Liu, we can't die together. I haven't lived enough yet, Mr. Liu."
Liu Xiaoyuan is furious right now, thinking that if it weren't for the fact that Meng Ting is your boyfriend, none of this would have happened.
The angrier Liu Xiaoyuan got, the more he said, "Shut up!"
Seeing Liu Xiaoyuan lose his temper, Meng Ting immediately shut her mouth and dared not say a word, while Yang Jing laughed and said, "Mr. Liu, don't be so fierce to girls, be a gentleman."
"Gentleman my ass!" Enraged, Liu Xiaoyuan punched the guy right in the face.
After being punched a few times by Liu Xiaoyuan, Yang Jing's smile finally disappeared. He glared at Liu Xiaoyuan and threatened, "Mr. Liu, if you try to hit me again, believe me, I'll make sure your father loses his life right now."
"Threatening me, huh?" Liu Xiaoyuan angrily grabbed Yang Jing's neck again.
"I'll kill you right now. As for the poison in my father's body, I'll figure out a way to deal with it later," Liu Xiaoyuan said.
Seeing the expression on Liu Xiaoyuan's face, Yang Jing was really frightened and quickly said, "Mr. Liu, let's talk this out. We are in a cooperative relationship now, so please don't act impulsively."
Liu Xiaoyuan didn't want to risk his father's life, so he finally let go. Yang Jing immediately started coughing violently.
After coughing for a long time, Yang Jing finally said, "Mr. Liu, are we in a cooperative relationship now? Or is there something we can discuss sitting down?"
Yang Jing was also afraid that if Liu Xiaoyuan were to kill him, it would be a great injustice.
"Tell me, what is it?" Liu Xiaoyuan asked.
Yang Jing said with a smile, "This is not the place to talk. Let's speak in private."
The two walked to the hospital rooftop, where there was no one else around, so they could talk freely.
“Mr. Liu, it’s like this. My master’s family has a secret manual that has fallen into a cave. Before entering the cave, we have to pass through a miasma-filled area. Although I am an expert in using poison, I still have no confidence that I can get through the miasma-filled area,” Yang Jing said with a smile.
Liu Xiaoyuan glanced at the other person and said, "If you're not confident you can pass, do you think I am?"
Yang Jing said, "Mr. Liu, you will definitely be able to get through this miasma zone, because the Three Steps will have no effect on you, so the miasma will not have much of an impact on you either."
Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaoyuan was puzzled. What did this mean? Could it be that the toxicity of miasma was the same as that of the Three-Step Fall?
“Since you have the Three-Step Fall Powder, you must also have the antidote. In that case, you can get through the miasma zone with the antidote. What do you need me for?” Liu Xiaoyuan asked.
Yang Jing explained, "Let me put it this way: although the toxicity of this miasma is similar to that of the Three-Step Fall Powder, the difference between the two is vast. If you are poisoned by the Three-Step Fall Powder, you can recover in two hours at most, but if you are poisoned by the miasma, you will die immediately."
Upon hearing Yang Jing's words, Liu Xiaoyuan thought to himself, "Aren't you just blatantly sending me to my death?"
"Are you asking me to risk my life to retrieve the secret manual for you?" Liu Xiaoyuan asked Yang Jing.
Yang Jing quickly shook his head and said, "Of course not, of course not, please don't misunderstand, Mr. Liu."
"It's hard not to misunderstand. The miasma is so poisonous. You're asking me to cross the miasma zone to get you the secret manual. What am I supposed to do if not send me to my death?" Liu Xiaoyuan asked.
Yang Jing said, "I've heard people say that the young master of the Liu family, like you, has an immunity to the Three-Step Poison. Moreover, he hid this secret manual in a cave after crossing the miasma zone."
Looking at Yang Jing, Liu Xiaoyuan couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you a member of the Liu family?"
Yang Jing chuckled and said, "Since things have come to this point, I'll keep it a secret. I'm indeed not a member of the Liu family."
Damn it! This guy is really cunning. If I really were the young master of the Liu family, I would have been fooled by him.
"What kind of secret manual is the Liu family hiding in the cave?" Liu Xiaoyuan asked with interest.
Yang Jing said, "It is said to be a book of a hundred poisons, which records the formulas and antidotes for various poisons. It is a secret manual that everyone in our Poison Sect dreams of."
"Poison Sect?" Liu Xiaoyuan looked at the other party with some surprise. What exactly is this Poison Sect?
Yang Jing explained, "The Poison Sect is a general term. Anyone who uses poison belongs to the Poison Sect, just like the Beggars' Sect. As long as you are a beggar, you can say you are a member of the Beggars' Sect."
"Oh, that's what it means," Liu Xiaoyuan nodded.
If, as Yang Jing said, the cave truly contains the Hundred Poisons Manual, then it is indeed a valuable item. Even Liu Xiaoyuan would want to possess it, as it records the formulas and antidotes for various poisons.
"Mr. Liu, so you can rest assured. The young master of the Liu family was fine after crossing this miasma zone, and I believe you will be fine too," Yang Jing said.
Liu Xiaoyuan will be fine, of course, because all he needs to do is summon a character from the God-level Invincible System.
Since Yang Jing knew that he would be fine crossing the miasma zone, he still dared to send him to retrieve the Hundred Poisons Manual. This could be because Yang Jing had no other choice but to do so, or because Yang Jing definitely had a backup plan to deal with Liu Xiaoyuan.
Therefore, Liu Xiaoyuan reminded himself that he must not let his guard down at that time.
