Thousand Poison Workshop
"Ah~!" A bloodcurdling scream rang out before the murmurs had even subsided.
Hearing Zhou Bapi's agonizing screams, everyone turned their attention to him. They saw that Zhou Bapi's right arm was now completely empty, and strangely, not a drop of blood flowed from the severed area.
"You... you are the Poison King." At this moment, ignoring the pain of his broken arm, Zhou Bapi, who had been arrogant before, stammered out the words.
Just now, Zhou Bapi arrogantly approached Xiao Yi Xian and began to search her body.
Seeing that this mere Dou Master dared to touch her, Xiao Yi Xian didn't hold back. Just as Zhou Bapi's lewd hand was about to touch her, Xiao Yi Xian released a little bit of the poison gas that had been binding her, and then Zhou Bapi's scream rang out.
Although Zhou Bapi wasn't particularly talented, he was still a Poison Master. Seeing the poison spreading upwards from his arm, he knew how potent it was. So much so that at that moment, Zhou Bapi decisively severed his own arm, thus avoiding death from the poison's corrosive effects.
Although the toxins leaked by Xiao Yi Xian were just ordinary toxins, not the original toxins of the Woeful Poison Body, they were still ordinary toxins within the Woeful Poison Body. For others, their toxicity would be unimaginably potent.
This person, being a poison, naturally possesses a degree of resistance to toxins. Furthermore, having frequently dealt with poisons, they know which toxins they cannot tolerate. They also know the brief first-aid methods available upon contact with these toxins.
It could be said that if Zhou Bapi had been even a fraction slower in severing his own arm to stop the toxins from spreading into his body, he would have ended up like his arm lying on the ground, corroded until only a pile of bones remained.
With such potent toxicity, coupled with Xiao Yi Xian's almost human-like complexion, Xiao Yi Xian image in Zhou Bapi's mind instantly transformed from a stranger he could tease into a Poison King who had reached the level of Dou Wang. Therefore, after this scream, Zhou Bapi immediately ran towards the city gate.
You said that in other places, offending Dou Wang and running away before he makes a sound is suicidal. But where is this? This is the Chu Yun Empire, a gathering place for Poison Master.
Here, if you offend Poison Master of the Dou Wang, you might have a sliver of hope to survive if you run away, but staying would be utter suicide.
Poison Master who can reach the level of Dou Wang has completely mastered the poisons over many years and integrated them into their body. Although such people have more profound cultivation, their minds are relatively more twisted.
After all, ordinary Poison Master have had less exposure to toxins, and their minds are often warped, while those who have reached the level of Dou Wang have been corrupted by toxins for countless years.
As toxins erode the body, they also twist the mind. So, if someone as offensive as you is still around, isn't that just asking for trouble?
Now, by escaping like this, he can get away from the Poison King's sight and prevent him from leaking any more poison and killing him without a burial place. The other reason is that he has the backing of an elder of the Poison Cloud Sect, who is also a Poison Master has reached the Dou Wang level.
Although Zhou Bapi himself knew that he was completely insignificant in front of his cheap brother-in-law, let alone having caused the other party to make an enemy of another Poison King on his behalf.
But as the old saying goes, you have to consider the owner before you beat a dog, right?
Although he was of little value to his brother-in-law, who wouldn't risk offending another Poison King for his sake, face was a matter of mutual respect. His brother-in-law wouldn't risk offending a Poison King for his sake, and the Poison King present wouldn't risk offending the Poison King of the Poison Cloud Sect behind him for his sake either. So, as long as he escaped, the matter would basically be over.
After all, she had paid the price of losing an arm. If her brother-in-law found out, her younger sister could put in a good word for her, and there wouldn't be any problems.
"Let's go! Let's go into the city." With Xiao Yi Xian's intervention, no one dared to stop Lin Ming and his companions. So Lin Ming said this and walked towards the city gate.
Upon entering the city, Lin Ming frequently saw various poisonous substances being sold in the shops. Seeing this, he couldn't help but think once again, "No wonder this is the holy land of the Chu Yun Empire."
As they walked forward, the most luxurious and magnificent palace they had ever seen since entering the city came into Lin Ming.
"Thousand Poison Workshop!" Xiao Yi Xian exclaimed as she looked at the imposing characters on the magnificent hall.
"Let's go in and see what this Thousand Poison Workshop, which has a similar name to Thousand Medicine Workshop, is all about," Lin Ming said after Xiao Yi Xian spoke.
After Lin Ming finished speaking, Xiao Yi Xian nodded and followed Lin Ming inside.
As they walked among the guards, they all bowed respectfully to Lin Ming and his companions upon their arrival, only straightening their postures after Lin Ming had passed.
"It seems this Thousand Poison Workshop Pavilion is quite powerful!" Lin Ming thought to himself, observing the guards' actions.
Judging from the scale of the Thousand Poison Workshop, it is definitely not an ordinary place. As the guards of such an extraordinary force, it is impossible for them to bow to everyone who enters.
Lin Ming had just seen people go in, and the guards hadn't made a move. But now, when he and his group entered, they bowed.
That leaves only one possibility: the people at Thousand Medicine Workshop have already learned about what happened to Xiao Yi Xian at the city gate.
Since Zhou Bapi could guess that Xiao Yi Xian was Poison King with the Dou King cultivation, then presumably everyone else guessed the same. As a result, the people of Thousand Medicine Workshop already knew that Xiao Yi Xian was Poison King, which is why they were so respectful to Lin Ming and his companions.
Since entering the city, Lin Ming and his group haven't come directly here, but they've hardly stopped along the way, observing their surroundings as they arrived.
In such a short time, Thousand Medicine Workshop not only learned of Xiao Yi Xian's presence at the city gate, but also, judging from the current situation, relayed the message to the guards. This shows that Thousand Poison Workshop must have a very powerful background.
Lin Ming could guess these things, and so could Xiao Yi Xian. Others were guessing that Xiao Yi Xian was Dou Wang), but Xiao Yi Xian and Lin Ming knew the truth.
Xiao Yi Xian is currently only at the Da Dou Shi level. If she reveals her true strength after entering, there's no guarantee that others won't take any action. Therefore, at this moment, Xiao Yi Xian looked towards Lin Ming.
"Since we're here, let's make the best of it! We're already here, we should at least go in and take a look, shouldn't we?" Lin Ming said with a smile, looking at the gaze that Xiao Yi Xian casting at him.
