Chapter 51: Let's chat first
'Give up?' Yin Bai smiled bitterly. He was injured, and even if Gao Lan Mei was lying about the poison, there's not much he could do.
Three deadly small snakes were watching over them, their cultivation lost without a trace, an enemy they were not prepared for. These were more reasons that he could think of to justify their desire to give up.
Releasing a deep breath, "I am tired." She had accidentally inhaled some poison earlier, controlling her combat action was difficult. She needed to get into good shape for physical fights.
It was strange for the Liqi clan to accept missions on the mortal domain, "I am in a good mood, so let's chat first." Gao Lan Mei put down both her weapons.
Gao Lan Mei's action should have lowered their guard, but no. The young woman had prepared many schemes. If they had three layers of back-up, she might have even more.
"Do you guys know about the Slow Lily?" She asked, "Well, I should call it fast lily now actually, but I just named it Deceiving Lily. Better right? For the better version." Gao Lan Mei said smiling like sharing a story.
The improved poison from Xiao Jun was now helping her tremendously. In its powder form, it's much more convenient since it did not have a smell.
She did not have enough details on what it could do right now, though. Would it also affect the cultivators of a higher degree? How long would it take to effect if that was the case? She did not know yet.
Did she need to offend more people so that she could have more opportunities to test her new creations? She really wanted to try it on other creatures.
Poison was not really her specialty before, but now, learning it seemed to be necessary and would be beneficial for her survival.
Thinking this, Gao Lan Mei felt an oncoming headache. The things that she needed to do were piling up and her resources were scarce. So limited. Having Feng Ji borrow, a lot of things might be necessary. 'I will just list my enemies later.'
In the Immortal Domain, slow lily was a known poison for exiles. From the name itself, one would know that it acted slow and might take years before it really showed its effect.
It was designed to remove cultivation at a very slow pace, the physical senses, then the flesh, finally, the bones, until nothing was left. It's like an unseen organism that finished you off little by little — wanting, begging to die but not able to. It would be the worst kind of death!
As a part of an assassin clan, they were aware that there's a lot of attempts to hasten the pace of the poison as it was deemed beneficial for anyone, but that was a failed dream even in the immortal domain.
If Gao Lan Mei is telling the truth, then they would truly soon experience the worst kind of death fast!
"It's getting late. You can tell me who send you or I can just wait for the poison to enjoy you?" She said, with a hint of impatience.
Not being able to help himself because of fear, "The Ye family! They sent us!" Yin Bai moved forward to confess. He was already poisoned and could feel his weakening physique. If Gao Lan Mei would not set them free, at least he would beg for a quick death!
How about the antidote? He wanted to consider that option as well but in exchange for what? A mortal who could recreate the Slow Lily should never be offended!
