He walked up to Su Hanjiang, bowed, and handed him the tea.
"Master Su, please don't be offended. I apologize on behalf of my disciple."
Su Hanjiang did not accept the tea.
Li Yueyun was embarrassed.
Ji Kongmeng, showing consideration for his former master, accepted the tea with one hand.
And he put it to his lips and took a sip.
They are so filial!
Qin Mu said, "What do you mean! This tea was offered to Valley Master Su by my master. How could you drink it?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Kongmeng opened his mouth and spat the tea back in.
He hadn't intended to drink it; he just wanted to taste whether anything had been added to it.
Li Yueyun really didn't disappoint him.
All cultivators: !!!
Second Elder: Brilliant! There's such a thing?
Ji Kongmeng's actions were too arrogant and rude, and the cultivators all whispered their condemnation.
The main reason is that I don't dare to be too loud.
Ji Kongmeng finished spitting out the tea and put down the teacup.
"You've offended me, so why can't I drink it? Besides, if I don't try it, what if Master Li poisons my master?"
Upon hearing Ji Kongmeng's words, Li Yueyun's face immediately darkened.
Ding Chunshui advised, "Nephew, it's not that bad. Master Li, he shouldn't dare."
Li Yueyun's face darkened further after hearing Ding Chunshui's advice, and a layer of cold air seemed to emanate from his body.
Ji Kongmeng sensed the chill in the air and decided to make matters worse: "What is there that Master Li wouldn't dare to do? It's just one life; he has plenty more on his hands."
"Don't talk nonsense! What is your intention in making baseless accusations against Master Li?"
The speaker was Luo Cheng, the eighth elder of the Elders' Hall.
Luo Cheng, who was in charge of criminal laws, detested baseless accusations.
Ji Kongmeng said, "Reporting to Eighth Elder, Kongmeng has evidence for saying this, and that evidence lies with Master Li!"
Li Yueyun finally couldn't hold back his anger and shouted: "Nonsense!"
As he spoke, a gust of wind lashed out at Ji Kongmeng!
But this slap was deliberately deflected slightly, so that it would not land on Ji Kongmeng, but on the stone table in front of Su Hanjiang.
Others might not see through this trick, but it couldn't fool Su Hanjiang.
Even Luo Cheng, who had seen countless cunning and treacherous people, could not be fooled.
He instantly appeared beside Li Yueyun, grabbed his hand, and twisted it so that Li Yueyun could not move.
Luo Cheng's claw technique can penetrate flesh and skin, and its power is extremely strong.
He turned Li Yueyun's hand over and found that he was holding a small porcelain bottle.
Judging from the unique sealing method of the porcelain bottle, it should be a kind of smoke-based poison, but this kind of poison is obviously not enough to kill a cultivator like Su Hanjiang.
Luo Cheng snatched the porcelain bottle from Li Yueyun's hand, somewhat puzzled: "If you're going to poison someone, why use a non-lethal poison?"
Ji Kongmeng said, "Eighth Elder, you may not know this, but this Baili bamboo leaf tea is mixed with the juice of fresh Baili bamboo, plus the Qianyun tea that my master drank earlier."
This can form a toxin that is difficult to detect. The toxin penetrates first, damaging the skin texture, then entering the bloodstream, and finally reaching the bone marrow.
Its interior is completely destroyed, making it fatal regardless of the type of poison.
Bamboo leaves are never used with fresh juice, as it will produce a sour taste.
Having spent four years at Yueyun Manor, Kongmeng naturally knew that Master Li was a connoisseur of tea.
This cup of tea was probably adulterated with juice on purpose.
Whether I'm lying or not, the Second Elder should be able to testify.
The Second Elder, Xilou Yue, who had been called out, walked over with a smile and checked the three items.
After the inspection, he was utterly impressed: "Wow! Master Li is truly remarkable! To be able to devise such a vicious method to harm people, even I am ashamed of my own abilities. I wonder if you could write a book about it so that I can admire it?"
