Not long after, Liu Xiaoyuan heard a rumbling sound and the ground shook as if an earthquake had occurred.
Holy crap! What's going on?
Just as Liu Xiaoyuan was unaware of what was going on, he saw a group of animals running towards them. This group of animals was of all kinds, including elephants, tigers, and wild boars...
However, these animals seemed to be larger and more dangerous than the animals outside.
The little guy stood on the head of an elephant, like an emperor leading his troops into battle, with the animals as his subjects.
The animals stopped about fifty meters away from Liu Xiaoyuan. The elephant immediately knelt down, put its head on the ground, and stretched its long trunk over its head. After the little guy stood on it, the elephant slowly lowered its trunk to let the little guy land safely.
After the little guy stood on the ground, the animals immediately cowered down, just like when an emperor held a morning court and his subjects paid their respects.
Seeing this amazing scene, Liu Xiaoyuan found it incredible. How could such a small, adorable animal, like a kitten, have such power to make other animals obey you? It was simply amazing.
"Eee-yah-yah!" The little guy started making "ee-yah-yah" sounds as soon as he saw the animals kneeling down, as if to say, "I'm going out today, and you all have to behave yourselves inside. If you don't behave, I'll punish you when I get back."
After a while of babbling, the little guy finally stopped talking, but the animals remained kneeling on the ground. The little guy walked to Liu Xiaoyuan's side and babbled a few words, meaning that we could leave.
After Liu Xiaoyuan understood what the little guy meant, he immediately followed the little guy into the miasma forest. Before leaving, Liu Xiaoyuan took one last look at the animals lying on the ground.
The animals seemed quite pleased with the little guy's departure; you could tell from the look in their eyes.
However, when they met Liu Xiaoyuan's gaze, they were so frightened that they changed their gaze to one of reluctance.
Haha, it seems these animals are quite clever, even more so than humans.
With the little guy around, the miasma forest was no longer a problem. Liu Xiaoyuan and the little guy strolled leisurely through the miasma forest. Some poisonous insects, oblivious to their own mortality, tried to bite the little guy, but were slapped to death by him.
A venomous snake tried to bite the little guy, but Liu Xiaoyuan simply used his claws to cut off its tongue.
Along the way, the little guy cleared the way for Liu Xiaoyuan. Most of the poisonous insects and snakes that couldn't escape were killed by the little guy. This little guy was the nemesis of those poisonous insects and snakes.
After walking for nearly an hour, we finally emerged from the miasma forest. By the time we got outside, it was already dark, and we couldn't see anything at all.
However, this is not a problem for a master at the second level of the Innate Realm. Even in the darkest night, Liu Xiaoyuan can clearly see the scenery within a few meters around him.
Once outside, Liu Xiaoyuan saw Yang Jing still standing there. Hearing the noise, Yang Jing immediately called out, "Is that Mr. Liu?"
Liu Xiaoyuan replied, "It's me, Yang Jing!"
Upon hearing Liu Xiaoyuan's voice, Yang Jing immediately went up to him. Looking at the wooden box in Liu Xiaoyuan's hand, Yang Jing's face lit up with joy, and he asked, "Mr. Liu, have you obtained the Hundred Poisons Manual?"
Liu Xiaoyuan said, "Yes, Yang Jing, the Hundred Poisons Scripture is on me. If you want it, you'll have to exchange it for my father's antidote. Otherwise, don't even think about it."
Yang Jing smiled and said, "Mr. Liu, you're overthinking it. Alright, I'll exchange the antidote for it. Here's the antidote!" After saying that, Yang Jing reached into his clothes and rummaged around for a few moments before pulling it out in a fist.
"Mr. Liu, this is the antidote you wanted!" Yang Jing suddenly opened his hand and threw a handful of powder at Liu Xiaoyuan's face.
At such close range, and at night, Yang Jing was convinced that Liu Xiaoyuan had no way to dodge. In fact, Liu Xiaoyuan had already guessed that Yang Jing would come back, but Liu Xiaoyuan did not dodge because even if he was poisoned, it would be fine, since he had the little guy by his side.
Seeing that Liu Xiaoyuan did not dodge, Yang Jing laughed and said, "Liu Xiaoyuan, I've tolerated you for a long time. You can just stay here and keep these poisonous insects and snakes company."
After Yang Jing finished speaking, he snatched the wooden box from Liu Xiaoyuan's hand and laughed loudly, "The Hundred Poisons Manual, haha, the Hundred Poisons Manual is mine!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Jing felt something was wrong. He started to have a headache, and then he felt weak all over and collapsed to the ground.
"Oh no, it's poisoned!" Yang Jing immediately realized he had been poisoned.
"Mr. Liu, how despicable of you! You actually poisoned this!" Yang Jing said, glaring fiercely at Liu Xiaoyuan.
Liu Xiaoyuan said, "When it comes to being despicable, no one can beat you. Also, the poison on this wooden box wasn't put on by me, but by someone else. By the way, I'll tell you now, the poison on this wooden box is colorless powder. You should know how powerful colorless powder is!"
As someone who uses poison, Yang Jing certainly knew the power of the Colorless Powder; it was one of the most potent poisons, with no antidote.
"You, how come you're alright?" Yang Jing asked in surprise when he saw that Liu Xiaoyuan was unharmed.
Liu Xiaoyuan laughed and said, "You don't need to worry about that. Anyway, I have a way to deal with the colorless powder, but you don't, haha..."
Yang Jing immediately pulled out a bottle of medicine from his body and said, "Mr. Liu, this is your father's antidote. Please give me the antidote for the colorless powder. If you save my life, I will serve you like a slave from now on."
Liu Xiaoyuan smiled and looked at Yang Jing, saying, "Sorry, I don't need to be your servant, because I don't like riding horses. As for oxen, I have a yellow ox at home!"
Yang Jing's face turned ashen, because he felt his breathing becoming difficult, and he felt a bit suffocated. As a master of poison, Yang Jing knew that he was about to die.
"Mr. Liu, please save me, please!" Yang Jing crawled toward Liu Xiaoyuan, but was kicked into the miasma forest by Liu Xiaoyuan.
"Oh, right, you can find the answer yourself in the Hundred Poisons Manual!" Liu Xiaoyuan said, tossing the Hundred Poisons Manual over.
At this moment, Yang Jing didn't even think about why Liu Xiaoyuan was so kind as to give him the Hundred Poisons Scripture. He picked up the Hundred Poisons Scripture from the ground as if he had grasped the last straw.
But when he opened the Hundred Poisons Classic, he found that it was completely blank, with nothing on it.
"How is this possible? Why is it blank? How is this possible?" Yang Jing shouted like a madman.
"Haha... As expected, the legend is true. The Hundred Poisons Manual is a fraudulent thing, haha... Ah..." As Yang Jing was speaking, he was bitten by a poisonous insect in the miasma forest and immediately screamed in pain, looking like he was about to die.
