Free Web NovelChapter 72: Chapter 70: Her True Face
"Host, be careful!"
In that critical moment, Little Nine’s voice rang out, "Quick, use the poison!"
Su Mo didn’t have time to think. She snatched the medicine packet that had fallen in front of her and clutched it tightly in her palm.
She also grabbed a poison-dipped silver needle from her waist.
Yue Ying had already sensed someone approaching Su Mo. He frowned slightly and secretly took out the medicine packet Su Mo had given him.
The moment he threw it, the two people opposite him unexpectedly threw out medicine packets of their own, and he instinctively held his breath. fгeewebnovёl.com
Just as he staggered, there was a loud BANG, and the people outside forcibly smashed through the carriage wall.
Yue Ying couldn’t worry about anything else. He turned, about to grab Su Mo from inside the carriage.
But he was a step too late.
The person outside the carriage was faster than him.
Just as the black-clad man’s hand was about to touch Su Mo, she abruptly flung the medicine packet in her hand at him!
In the next instant, his eyes glazed over for a moment, and a trickle of blood even escaped from the corner of his mouth.
’Damn it! Her poison has actually gotten stronger again!’
He desperately suppressed the poison spreading through his body and, with his last ounce of strength, finally seized the woman before him!
Su Mo’s eyes widened in astonishment. ’No way, he’s not dead from that? He’s so hard to kill!!!’
"Little Nine, save me! Your Host is really going to bite the dust this time!!!"
There was no response.
Su Mo: "!!!"
’Useless piece of junk, can’t you be reliable for once?!’
The black-clad man seized Su Mo and shot out of the carriage like a hurricane.
When Mo Xiao and Fei Yan finished dealing with matters in the forest and flew over, they saw Su Mo being abducted!
Without a second thought, he and Fei Yan immediately flew off in pursuit.
Su Mo was held in a death grip around her waist. She felt like she was about to be crushed to death.
In her desperation, she secretly tightened her grip on the silver needle and viciously stabbed it into the black-clad man’s wrist!
The man’s brow twitched, and his grip loosened slightly.
Just as Su Mo thought she was about to escape the tiger’s jaws, the man put in a burst of strength and grabbed her by the neck.
He threatened in a harsh voice, "Be quiet, or I’ll kill you right now!"
Su Mo couldn’t help but shudder.
’This is insane. I’m just some cannon fodder from the original story, so how did I manage to provoke such a powerful enemy?! You big idiot, why are you grabbing me? Go grab the female lead! She’s your ultimate target!!!’
After calming down for a few seconds, she figured this wouldn’t do. She had to find a way to get some useful information and stall for time.
So, she began tremblingly, "Sir, we have no quarrel with each other. Why... why are you kidnapping me?!"
"No quarrel? When you were poisoning me, why didn’t you say we had no quarrel then?"
Su Mo’s eyes widened. "That’s because you attacked first! I was only defending myself. What did I do wrong? Why are you targeting me? Let me go, and we can go our separate ways!"
"Too late!"
Su Mo’s mind raced, and she started rambling, "Who are you? What’s your name? Where are you from? The martial world is all about honor! Kidnapping me against my will like this isn’t honorable at all!"
The man snorted. "Why would I talk about honor with someone who’s about to die!"
"That’s where you’re wrong! How can you operate in this world without any honor? You say you attacked me, but was I just supposed to stand there and wait to die? I did nothing wrong, so since I did nothing wrong, you can’t kidnap me! If you have any guts, face me openly. What kind of a move is this cheap sneak att—"
The incessant chatter in his ear made the man frown. "Shut up! One more word, and I’ll kill you!"
The man’s hand on her neck tightened slightly, and Su Mo, knowing what was good for her, immediately begged for mercy.
"I was wrong, I was wrong~"
The black-clad man shot her a contemptuous look, as if to say, ’And here I thought you were capable of something. This is all you are.’
On the surface, Su Mo still looked scared out of her wits, but inwardly she couldn’t help but roll her eyes.
’What are you looking at? This is a strategic retreat! This young lady’s number one rule in life is: the one who survives to the end is the real winner! You don’t know shit!’
’It’s so weird. Why haven’t my fiancés caught up yet...?’
An idea popped into Su Mo’s head. "Um, I kinda have to pee. Can you let me down..."
Before she could finish, the hand clamped around her waist tightened dangerously.
"Know your place, or I can send you to see King Yan at any moment! Don’t even think about it. Your fiancés won’t find us here! I’ve already blocked your pheromones!"
Su Mo subconsciously sniffed herself. Sure enough, there was the faint scent of medicinal powder.
’Holy crap, this son of a bitch really came prepared!!!’
Su Mo put on a look of lingering fear, swallowed, and glanced at him timidly. "I’ll just... hold it in then..."
The man shot her another contemptuous look, then gave a slight cough. A trace of crimson stained his black face mask.
It seemed Su Mo’s powder from earlier was taking effect.
However, he just wiped it away and seemed to recover completely.
Su Mo secretly gritted her teeth.
’This bastard, is he even more immune to poison than I am?!’
The next second, the Male Beastman brought her to a cave and viciously threw her to the ground!
He roared menacingly, "The antidote!"
Su Mo looked at his outstretched hand and decided to play dumb. "I only research poisons. I’m not very good at making antidotes..."
The man grabbed her slender neck, his dark, sharp eyes boring into her as he repeated, "Give me the antidote if you don’t want to die!"
Su Mo’s eyes widened in pain as she choked out, "Y-You... let go of me first... We can... talk this out!"
The man abruptly slammed her against the stone wall behind them.
Her back hit the wall unexpectedly, and she instinctively clenched her jaw against the pain.
’You son of a bitch, you better hope you never fall into my hands, or I’ll make you pay!’
She stammered, "I... I don’t have an antidote... but I can try to develop one for you..."
Even if the system really did have an antidote, Su Mo wouldn’t give it to him so easily.
If she gave him the antidote now, there was no guarantee she would live to see the sunrise.
The man’s blade-like eyes stared at her, clearly not believing a word she said.
’This little Female is incredibly cunning!’
He took out a small knife, cut his own finger, grabbed her, and was about to shove it into her mouth!
’I have to make her suffer the same poison as me!’
Su Mo’s eyes widened in terror. ’This dishonorable son of a bitch! Is he really this calculating?!’
She struggled, refusing to cooperate. "Wait, calm down... I-I’ll find an antidote for you to try first!"
The man’s grip on her loosened slightly. Su Mo pulled a Detoxification Pill from her pocket and handed it over.
This was the same type of Detoxification Pill she had given to Fei Yan and the others. It couldn’t completely neutralize the poison in this bastard, but it could suppress it for a while.
Any time she could buy was a victory.
The man took the pill, studied it for a moment, then held it under his nose and sniffed it gently.
He was just about to take it but, after a second thought, still felt uneasy.
He shoved his finger into Su Mo’s mouth after all, forcing her to swallow his poisoned blood.
Then he stuffed the Detoxification Pill into her mouth!
"COUGH, COUGH, COUGH!" Su Mo nearly choked to death.
It took her a long moment to recover.
The man seized her wrist, probed her with his Inner Strength, and then frowned deeply.
’Such a potent poison, and it has almost no effect on her?’ freeωebnovēl.c૦m
’What kind of poisons are in her body?’
’It’s a miracle she’s even still alive!’
As he withdrew his hand, he looked at Su Mo’s pale and rather plain face.
With the Inner Strength of a Level Nine Beastman, he instantly saw, hidden beneath the plain features ravaged by poison, her true face.
