Chapter 794: Chapter 794: Poisoning
Wolong Villa.
Ma Chuxia, Xia Ying, Ji Zhengyu, and others all erged from the Formation.
Every face was radiant, glowing. They were in peak physical condition like they had just imbibed Jadescent Nectar.
They had completely absorbed the potency of the Ghost Pill, and it worked wonders on them!
Whether in terms of strength, speed, jump power, explosive force, resistance to hits, or immunity… they had all just transcended human limitations, reaching a superhuman realm.
With every movent, they were capable of tearing a tiger or a leopard apart.
Take Sun Wei and Jin ngqi for example. Although they had practiced ancient martial arts, their fundantals were too shallow; they hadn’t even reached the realm of a Grandmaster. But after absorbing the power of the purple Ghost Pill, they could effortlessly unleash the strength of dozens of fierce tigers. To think that a human could exert the power of a tiger, how terrifying was that?
However, for the majority of people, this tamorphosis was barely visible to the naked eye. The intensity of True Qi was discernible to an experienced Great Grandmaster, but physical strength wasn’t so easily asured.
Huang Xiaolong had to recite a clairvoyance spell before he could see that their insides were teeming with vitality, as if there was a blazing fla inside.
The Ghost Pill enhanced not only physical strength, but also ntal determination. That being said, their vigor and spirit now resembled a plu of smoke, shooting straight upwards!
With this enhancent, they wouldn’t be intimidated when facing the geniuses from the ten great ancient martial families. They could maintain a calm deanor and wouldn’t have any inferiority complex.
“Alright. Tomorrow we will head to Dong’an City, et up with my wife Aoshan, and then attend the Rising Dragon Martial Arts Tournant!” Huang Xiaolong grinned.
“Thank you for your great kindness, Master!!!”
A handful of slaves all roared in unison and kneeled before Huang Xiaolong, pledging their absolute loyalty.
These slaves felt that they now possessed so dignity! Because they had power, and power symbolized dignity! They obliterated the slave brand that had been seared into their hearts. From this point onward, they were Huang Xiaolong’s exclusive slaves. They no longer needed to grovel and submit to others. Even when facing a powerful martial artist from one of the ten great ancient martial families, they could maintain their composure.
Lin Zicong, Ji Zhengyu, Old Master Jin, and those from the Sun Family also knelt.
“Master, I am a bastard, hence I was always despised in my family and had virtually no dignity. But now, I have a say. I can return to my family and reclaim my dignity!” Ji Zhengyu said, choked up. “The greatest fortune of my life is eting you, Master!”
Huang Xiaolong waved it off nonchalantly. “Don’t ntion it. To , these things are a piece of cake.”
“Master, I received a call from my father. I need to return and join my family, then head to the venue of the Rising Dragon Martial Arts Tournant.” Ji Zhengyu reported.
“Oh, then you should go.” Huang Xiaolong nodded.
“Master, we will et again at the venue of the Rising Dragon Martial Arts Tournant.” Ji Zhengyu rose to take his leave.
At that mont, Huang Xiaolong bid farewell to his wives who stayed in Binhai, knowing that they were in good hands under the protection of Ghost King Ying Kexin, who had control over the Binhai City God Temple.
On the following day, Huang Xiaolong led his team in a grand manner to board a private jet provided by the rich and powerful individuals of Binhai. They flew directly to Dong’an City to join the massive team from the Ying Family!
…
Ji Family Headquarters!
In the grand reception hall, the atmosphere was subtly intense.
An elderly man with a gleaming gaze sat at the head of the table in a Taishi Chair.
Both sides were filled with the Ji Family’s second generation and young geniuses.
All of these people were Grandmasters of ancient martial arts, their vitality vibrant and robust.
In the middle of the hall stood a figure, who was none other than Ji Zhengyu!
“Little Yu, you left the family a long ti ago, how co you’re back now ?” The old man glared slightly with displeasure at Ji Zhengyu.
“Grandfather, I was just gaining experience outside. The Rising Dragon Battle Martial Arts Competition will open soon, and after receiving father’s call, I hurried back,” Ji Zhengyu replied deferentially.
“Little Yu, it seems your training has been fruitful. Not only did your True Qi cultivation break through the barrier and make substantial progress, even your vitality and spirit are much stronger than before. It seems you’ve had so adventures outside,” a middle-aged man with an unruly aura said with a smile towards Ji Zhengyu.
This middle-aged man was Ji Zhengyu’s biological father.
“Yes, father, I’ve had so adventures,” Ji Zhengyu did not ntion Huang Xiaolong. Huang Xiaolong had too many secrets. It would be best not to carelessly ntion it. Otherwise, the covetousness and jealousy would bring about trouble. Ji Zhengyu also didn’t want to stir up unnecessary contention for Huang Xiaolong.
“Ha ha ha ha~~ child, you don’t have to hide anything anymore.” At this point, Father Ji laughed heartily. “We already know that you t a benefactor. His na is Huang Xiaolong, right? According to our intelligence, Huang Xiaolong has done many unbelievable things. He even defeated the experts from the Yu Family. It’s said that he can forge lost artifacts… tsk tsk… the boy has many secrets!”
While speaking, Father Ji and the mbers of the Ji Family present all had unrestrained greed surfacing in their eyes!
“Little Yu, your achievents today, I’m afraid, are related to Huang Xiaolong, aren’t they?” The elder in the superior Taishi Chair added sinisterly.
This~~” Ji Zhengyu was taken aback.
“Alright, we’re all family here, no need to mince words,” Father Ji laughed. “My child, you are of illicit birth, and indeed your father has mistreated you in the past. But don’t worry, starting today, your father will compensate! However… um, there’s sothing I need you to do.”
“What… what is it?” Ji Zhengyu felt his heart skip a beat.
“Heh~~ Little Yu, think about it, you’ve only followed Huang Xiaolong for a few months, and your progress has been astonishing…” Father Ji said with a playful smile. “If a man like this were under our Ji family’s control, serving our Ji Family, how would that be?”
As he spoke, Father Ji’s pupils were already warming up with excitent!
“Little Yu, listen: here is a bottle of ‘Five Poison Heavenly Water’, the strongest poison passed down in our Ji family!” Father Ji took out an ancient jade bottle from his bosom. “Now you go back to Huang Xiaolong, find a chance to covertly put a drop of ‘Five Poison Heavenly Water’ in Huang Xiaolong’s food or drink! Once ‘Five Poison Heavenly Water’ enters the body, it causes excruciating agony every seven days, worse than death, the antidote is in our Ji family’s hands, there’s no way he can slip through our grasp!”
“What? You… you want… want to poison the master… from now on… from now on use the antidote to… to threaten him, control him …” Ji Zhengyu was slack-jawed, his eyeballs nearly popping out of his sockets. Yet an intense surge of anger crossed his heart.
In his mind, Huang Xiaolong was like a god, not to be blasphed, not even by his family’s elders!
“Yes! Little Yu, this boy can help our Ji family rise to prominence! If you accomplish this task, your grandfather and I, we won’t treat you unfairly!” Father Ji’s face was filled with a ferocious look.
“No! I… I can’t harm the Master! The grace he has shown , even if I were to shatter my body into pieces, I wouldn’t be able to repay him! I can’t harm him! I mustn’t!” Ji Zhengyu roared.
“Humph~~ useless waste! The family has raised you for nothing!” A mocking voice rang out from outside, and a young man in white leisurely walked in. His aura was terrifying, like a mountain flood, a storm, a volcano, even a hint of a domineering ‘who dare cross ?’ aura was mixed in. “For the sake of an outsider, you dare to defy your grandfather and the family’s decision… Ji Zhengyu, I will now give you two options. The first is to poison him and make Huang Xiaolong serve our Ji family. The second… is death.”
