The poison spread fast!
Within a few breaths, He Pingsheng felt the numbness growing stronger and stronger.
With a thud, he collapsed to the ground and lay motionless.
Thirty zhang away, behind an old tree so thick it would take two arms to encircle it, the female disciple of the Zhuang Family cautiously extended her Divine Sense to probe him.
Once she confirmed that He Pingsheng had stopped breathing, she stepped calmly out from behind the tree.
"Heh heh..."
She chuckled as she walked, murmuring casually to herself, "Did you really think I was someone you could push around?"
"Idiot... go to hell!"
"Now everything belongs to me!"
"Heh heh heh..."
Those three poisoned needles were her true trump card. Not only had her senior brother known nothing about them, even her elders were unaware of them.
Today, they had saved her life.
Utterly confident in her concealed weapons, the woman walked straight toward He Pingsheng.
When she was still a zhang away from him, she raised her hand and unleashed her Flying Sword again.
"Slash!"
The sword slashed down.
But then!
To the woman's utter horror, an earthen-yellow Defensive Light Barrier suddenly appeared around He Pingsheng.
The barrier easily blocked the Flying Sword. Then three Fire Crows flew out, moving like thunder before the ears could catch it, and one slammed into the woman's chest with a bang.
Bang! Bang!
The other two Fire Crows struck her in the back.
The female disciple of the Zhuang Family was dead!
Once again, He Pingsheng did not even know her name.
He Pingsheng climbed up from the ground.
Indeed, his collapse from poisoning had been an act.
He had truly been poisoned, but thanks to cultivating the [Nine-Toxin Golden Body] technique and its Divine Ability, he had acquired Hundred Poisons Immunity.
