Super Rich Fantasy: I Grow Stronger By Spending Money-Chapter 375 - The Art of Poison Men
375 The Art of Poison Men
Zhou Hong was sinister and cautious. The fewer people who knew about the spies he had planted in other sects, the better. Therefore, he would only contact them personally. If any news was leaked, it would raise the vigilance of others.
Seeing that Ye Xuan was deep in thought, the disciple lowered his eyes, but a dark light flashed in his eyes. The poisonous fog grew thicker as if something was approaching.
“What’s your plan? Tell me how it will be carried out, what time will it will be carried out, and when it will start. Tell me everything.”
“Okay, I’ll tell you-”
The disciple dragged out his voice and then exploded with lightning speed. The ruthlessness in his eyes was not concealed at all. It seemed that the cooperation just now was all an act.
“The King of Hell will tell you the answer!”
Dozens of venomous insects flew out from his sleeves and pounced over. Every one of them was highly toxic, and anyone who was bitten would lose their mobility. The disciple and Ye Xuan were so close that Ye Xuan couldn’t dodge the attack at all.
As long as he fell, the poisonous insects of midsummer would swarm over and gnaw on him until there was no corpse left. This was the consequence of offending the Five Poison Sect!
The disciple’s attack was ruthless as if he had already seen the scene of Ye Xuan’s head being separated from his body.
To his surprise, Ye Xuan didn’t look panicked. Instead, he smiled sarcastically. He dodged and cut the poisonous insects in half with his sharp sword Qi.
The whole process happened in the blink of an eye. His speed was so fast that it was impossible to see how he made the move. Wherever the sword Qi passed, the poisonous fog was shattered. Even the poisonous insects hiding in the dark were intimidated and did not dare to cross the line.
The Five Poison Sect disciple’s face instantly turned deathly pale, and a thin line of blood appeared on his neck. He had been injured by Ye Xuan’s sword Qi.
At this moment, he was like a wooden man, fixed in place, with the corpses of poisonous insects piled up at his feet, afraid that he would be the next one to be beheaded.
Ye Xuan sighed softly, “Some people just don’t know their place. I wonder if the King of Hell will accept such an evil person like you.”
The disciple only felt his hair stand on end and an unprecedented pressure enveloped his head. He didn’t even feel this way when he was facing Zhou Hong.
The disciple quickly replied, “I only vaguely heard the elders talk about it. The ancestor wanted to annex other sects. How would we, the junior disciples, know such a big plan? I don’t know anything more. The elders know more in detail.”
Ye Xuan sized him up as if he was considering the truth of his words. This time, no matter how careless Ye Xuan was, the disciple didn’t dare to act rashly after the lesson just now.
“Then how are your poison men concocted and what are their weaknesses?”
It had to be said that Ye Xuan’s questions were all very sharp. If this information was leaked, it would not be enough for him to die ten thousand times. Obviously, this disciple also realized this, and his face turned pale.
“Sir, please spare my life. I am only following orders.”
Ye Xuan’s expression was cold as he pushed the tip of his sword forward. The disciple could feel the coldness and pain in his neck as if the god of death was waving his sickle and was in danger of falling at any time.”
“If you don’t say it now, you won’t have the chance to say it again,”
Looking at Ye Xuan’s dark eyes, the disciple couldn’t help but shiver, as if he was facing an abyss, and he had the courage to resist.
“I’ll talk, I’ll talk.”
“There are several steps to the concoction of poison men and in order to prevent such a heaven-defying technique from being leaked out, the elders have divided us into several groups and we are all acting according to the orders of the higher-ups. I only know that each group is responsible for handling different matters and as for the weaknesses of the poison men, there shouldn’t be one.”
It had to be said that the person who came up with this idea was really amazing. This way, it could prevent people from secretly learning it, and also prevent the enemy from causing trouble if they knew about it.
Even if their enemies caught a few of the Five Poison Sect disciples, they would not be able to find a solution, let alone find the right solution. It was impossible to catch everyone. If they did, the commotion would be too big, and the Five Poison Sect would be aware of it.
The disciple revealed an ingratiating smile and poured out everything he knew. “Sir, I’ve told you everything I know. Can you let me go?”
Ye Xuan raised an eyebrow and said, “You’ve done so many terrible things, and you still want me to let you go?”
Ye Xuan did not need to ask to guess how sinister the methods of making the poison men were. These poison men had lost their consciousness and turned into bloodthirsty monsters that only knew how to kill. Such a sinister method had been studied for a long time by the Five Poison Sect.
According to what they had said earlier, there had been quite a number of failed products of inferior quality before this. Ye Xuan asked, “Then what if you fail to refine them into poison men?”
The disciple looked at Ye Xuan carefully and replied, “If it’s a failed product, the poison will enter the lungs and there’s no way to save them.”
His words were rather tactful. Those failed products could not become true poison men because they could not withstand their own poison.
Before death, they would suffer immense pain, and all the poisons would erupt. It could be said that there were thousands of poisons in the world, which could almost drive people crazy.
This disciple had once seen those half-finished products in so much pain that they wished they were dead. Even people like him felt their blood run cold when they heard their screams.
“Is it possible for the poison men to regain their consciousness?”
The disciple shook his head and replied, “Once they become a poison man, there’s no cure. Even if their blood relatives stand in front of them, they will not hesitate to kill them.”
Seeing the killing intent flashing in Ye Xuan’s eyes, the disciple shrank his neck. “I’m just following orders. Please spare my life, Sir.”
To be able to come up with such a technique to make poison men, the entire Five Poison Sect had already rotted from its roots.
The disciple in front of him wanted to draw a clear line between him and the Five Poison Sect. However, to be able to climb to his current position and come into contact with such confidential matters, his hands must have been stained with a lot of blood.
“If you want me to let you go, I can-”
Ye Xuan took advantage of the disciple’s distraction and stuffed a pill into his mouth.
