Chapter 23 Poisoning



Bai Qing: "How dare you! I am the Left Protector of the Underworld Pavilion, and you dare to be so disrespectful. I was trying to reason with you, and you dare to spout such nonsense! You're simply refusing to listen to reason and asking for trouble!"

Bai Qing was furious and reached out to hit Feng Qinghuang.

Seeing that Bai Qing was about to hit Feng Qinghuang, Hong Wu quickly stepped in front of Feng Qinghuang and stopped her.

"Guardian Bai, please calm down. You mustn't touch this little girl."

Mo Wen, the male protector beside Bai Qing, quickly pulled Bai Qing back as well.

"Bai Qing, this is the Underworld Pavilion, you better behave yourself."

Mo Wen turned to Feng Qinghuang: "Miss, Bai Qing didn't mean anything by it just now. She just wanted you to return our sect leader's token. But what you said just now was a bit too much."

Feng Qinghuang pushed Hongwu away: "She said she would return it, so she just did. Is this jade ring hers? Besides, you say she didn't mean anything by it, but it seems to me that she's jealous of me."

"They're jealous of my good looks, jealous that I have Aqi's affection, jealous that I have a jade thumb ring, jealous of everything I have."

"Tsk tsk tsk, I think she's just jealous that Aqi likes me, and doesn't like her at all."

Bai Qing was trembling with anger, her hands clenched tightly. Every word Feng Qinghuang spoke felt like a knife stabbing into her.

Bai Qing gritted her teeth: "What...nonsense are you talking about?"

Whether I'm talking nonsense or not, only you know the truth.

"Now I'm telling you, Aqi is mine, and can only be mine. Anyone who tries to take him from me can try. Including you."

Feng Qinghuang is extremely protective of everything she owns, whether it be people or things.

"Impossible! The master would never like you. You've only been by the master's side for a short time, while we've been with him for ten years." Bai Qing was still relentless.

Feng Qinghuang: "Tch... So what if it's been ten years? After ten years, you're still a protector. But it's different between me and Aqi. We fell in love at first sight, were deeply in love at second sight, and pledged our lives to each other at third sight. Oh, what a wonderful feeling."

"I suppose you'll never understand."

Mo Wen said, "Young lady, don't go too far."

Feng Qinghuang looked at him: "Am I being too much? Everything I said is true. If you really think I'm being too much, then let me tell you about what I did when I was with Aqi?"

Hongwu thought Feng Qinghuang's sharp tongue was infuriating, and she could already sense that Bai Qing was about to explode.

Bai Qing glared at Feng Qinghuang with eyes full of anger.

"You are so shameless."

Feng Qinghuang chuckled.

"How am I shameless? Two people who like each other can do many things together. How did you know that what I'm talking about is something embarrassing?"

"It's because your own mind is dirty that you have so many ideas. Besides, even if we do something, it's much better than someone like you who only fantasizes behind people's backs."

Taking advantage of a moment when no one was paying attention, Bai Qing suddenly flicked an extremely thin black snake from his hand, which flew towards Feng Qinghuang.

Feng Qinghuang naturally saw it. Heh... I didn't expect it to be someone in the same industry.

Feng Qinghuang casually touched her left wrist, just as she was about to release the ball of energy from it. Suddenly, a woman in red gauze appeared before her, blocking the black snake from her way.

Hongwu looked at the bite marks on her arm: "Protector Bai, you dare to poison me?"

When Bai Qing released the snakes, Hong Wu didn't have time to push Feng Qinghuang away and could only shield the snakes with her own body.

Even if it wasn't for Feng Qinghuang, it was for everyone in the Underworld Pavilion.

If their master knew that Feng Qinghuang had been poisoned in the Underworld Pavilion, even if the Underworld Pavilion were torn down, it probably wouldn't quell their master's anger.

Mo Wen, who was standing nearby, had also seen it, but he didn't intervene. He wanted to see what this little girl was capable of, but who knew that Hong Wu would have to shield her? She really didn't have any skills; she was just pretty.

Feng Qinghuang looked at Hongwu in front of her, whose arm had turned black from being poisoned by a snake while shielding her, and exuded an imposing aura without anger.

Feng Qinghuang took out silver needles from her spatial storage and sealed her acupoints. She then took out an antidote pill and fed it to Hongwu.

He helped the person to sit down at the table, then turned to Bai Qing and said, "Very well, you actually dared to poison me. If it weren't for Sister Wu protecting me, wouldn't I have suffered the same pain?"

"Since that's the case, then you can experience what it's like to be bitten by a snake. Let's see if your snake is more powerful, or my dumpling is more powerful."

As soon as Feng Qinghuang finished speaking, a small silver snake darted out from her sleeve. The snake moved so fast that it became a streak of light and returned to Feng Qinghuang's wrist in the blink of an eye.

In an instant, all that could be heard in the room was Bai Qing's shouts from the ground.

Bai Qing tried to stop it, but the silver snake was too fast; she couldn't react in time. After being bitten, she immediately took out an antidote pill, but it had no effect. How could this be? Why couldn't the antidote pill cure the venom of Feng Qinghuang's snake?

When the detoxifying pills failed to work, Bai Qing felt as if his internal organs had shifted.

Bai Qing's entire body turned a dark purple color and was stiff.

Seeing this, Mo Wen angrily questioned Feng Qinghuang: "What kind of poison did you use? Why didn't the antidote work?"

Feng Qinghuang spread her hands: "Who knows what kind of trashy antidote pills you have in your hands?"

Mo Wen said, "Don't you have an antidote? Bring it here quickly, Bai Qing is dying."

Why should I give her an antidote?

"Because I was bitten by your snake." Mo Wen looked at Feng Qinghuang angrily.

Feng Qinghuang: "But her snake was about to bite me just now. If it weren't for Sister Wu, I would be the one poisoned now. I was just giving her a taste of her own medicine."

Mo Wen said, "But aren't you alright? It's Bai Qing who's going to die now."

Feng Qinghuang nodded: "Don't worry, she won't die. How could I let her die so easily? I'm just making her suffer a little."

Mo asked, "Aren't you afraid that when the master returns, he will take his anger out on you?"

"He won't. You should worry about yourselves."

Feng Qinghuang naturally knew that Rong Qi would not hold a grudge against her. If she didn't even have this much self-awareness, then it proved that Rong Qi was not worthy of her love at all.

Bai Qing was furious as she watched the two of them arguing. She was still in pain; couldn't they at least check on her?
