Chapter 133 I Certainly Have a Way
At the same time.
In a luxurious pavilion in Nanlin City, Qin Hu and Zhu Xiyan met with the Alchemist Tian Xiu.
Although this Alchemist Tian Xiu had gray hair just like Zhu Xiyan, he looked spirited, with a frivolous look in the corners of his eyes, always giving people a sense of eccentricity and paranoia!
At this moment, he sat opposite Qin Hu and Zhu Xiyan, a trace of disdain hanging on his face.
"Qin Hu, Zhu Xiyan."
Tian Xiu took a sip of tea and said sarcastically, "I didn't expect you two to actually kneel and beg for mercy from a wet-behind-the-ears young man; it's truly laughable!"
As a tenth-grade Alchemist, or perhaps a quasi-Pill King, Tian Xiu's status was not in the slightest weaker than Qin Hu and Zhu Xiyan's.
And because his relationship with Qin Hu and Zhu Xiyan was quite good, he had always been very blunt with them.
"Tian Xiu, you don't understand how terrifying that Su Lang is!"
Qin Hu's expression was very ugly, "I couldn't even last a single move under his hands!"
"That's right, Tian Xiu, don't think that we are all softies!"
Zhu Xiyan's face flushed red, and he said through gritted teeth, "If it hadn't been a last resort, would we have abandoned our dignity and knelt to Su Lang?"
"Hmph, truly useless!"
Tian Xiu lifted his chin in disdain, "If you can't defeat him head-on, don't you know how to outsmart him?"
"Outsmart him? How do we outsmart him?"
Qin Hu's eyes flickered, and he said thoughtfully, "Could it be that you have a way?"
"That Su Lang is as strong as an Advanced Martial Commander, how can we outsmart him!?"
Zhu Xiyan stared at Tian Xiu with displeasure, "It's easy for you to talk!"
"I certainly have a way!"
Tian Xiu snorted coldly and stood up, "Isn't Su Lang asking me to go and treat his servant? This is a great opportunity!"
"Tian Xiu, what exactly is your plan?"
A trace of surprise appeared in Qin Hu's eyes, "Can you really handle that Su Lang?"
"Tian Xiu, tell us quickly!"
Zhu Xiyan also turned his worry into joy.
He and Qin Hu had been heavily slapped in the face by Su Lang; to survive, they had to sell out their dignity and even gave up all their family wealth. How could they not hate him?
Previously being as docile as lambs in front of Su Lang was entirely because they had no power to resist and had to submit.
Now that they saw hope for revenge, how could they not be excited?
Tian Xiu smiled faintly: "Have you ever heard of the Impermanent Purple Jade Poison!"
"Impermanent Purple Jade Poison?"
Qin Hu and Zhu Xiyan looked at each other, then slowly shook their heads.
"Hmph, I knew you hadn't heard of it."
Tian Xiu gave a soft snort, his face full of complacency, "This Impermanent Purple Jade Poison is a tenth-grade deadly poison that has been lost for thousands of years!"
This deadly poison is colorless and odorless; it can be dissolved into a Medicinal Pill without affecting the original medicinal properties of the pill!
If one is not an Advanced Alchemist, it is impossible to identify it at all; it can be said to be impossible to guard against!
After I obtained its incomplete formula, I also spent a great deal of effort to re-develop it!"
"There is actually such a deadly poison?"
Qin Hu and Zhu Xiyan simultaneously felt a chill rise from their tailbones.
They often consumed Medicinal Pills refined by Tian Xiu; if the other party had even the slightest malicious intent, they would be in big trouble!
"You are truly timid!"
Tian Xiu sneered, "We have Advanced and retreated together for so many years; if I wanted to harm you, would I have waited until now?"
"Ahem."
Qin Hu coughed lightly to hide his embarrassment, and asked again, "The Impermanent Purple Jade Poison is indeed impossible to guard against!"
"However, the one who is seriously injured is Su Lang's servant, not him personally; he isn't the one taking the Medicinal Pill!"
"That's right…"
Zhu Xiyan frowned and guessed, "Could it be that you want to pretend to submit first, feign sending that Su Lang a Medicinal Pill, and wait for him to take the pill and be poisoned?"
"Wait for him to be poisoned? Hmph, do we even need to wait!?"
Tian Xiu snorted disdainfully, "Prick up your ears and listen to my methods!"
"We are all ears!"
Qin Hu and Zhu Xiyan solemnly cupped their hands.
Tian Xiu picked up his teacup, took a sip, and said unhurriedly: "Isn't his servant looking to treat his injuries? We will do this…"
Upon hearing this, Qin Hu and Zhu Xiyan were immediately enlightened.
Immediately, intense killing intent, as well as anticipation and excitement for revenge, erupted in their eyes.
