At this moment, Lucy Li of the Tian Hui Pavilion was poisoned by Nelson Chong. Except for her ability to speak, her entire body was motionless.
Under repeated questioning by Nelson Chong, Lucy Li finally revealed the information he wanted.
Regarding Ferrid Chu, Lucy Li had received the most inquiries in the past few days because there were too many people in Maple City looking for information about Ferrid Chu.
These inquiries came from the field of traditional Chinese medicine, big families, the Patrol Bureau, and even the Spirit Realm Martial Arts Investigation Department, which gave Lucy Li a headache. It wasn't that she couldn't find some information about Ferrid Chu; it was that she didn't want to see Ferrid Chu's name.
The last time at Ferrid Chu's villa, she was ruthlessly mocked and taunted by him, which left her nursing a grudge and feeling miserable for several days.
Furthermore, she received inquiries from various factions about Ferrid Chu's information every day, which made her even more irritable. She felt like Ferrid Chu was everywhere, in her eyes and on her mind, and she wished she could strangle him in one go.
Just when she received another inquiry about Ferrid Chu, Nelson Chong burst in and used poison to control Lucy Li directly.
Nelson Chong immediately asked two questions: Who killed White Crane, and what is the whereabouts of the Dragonchant sword?
These two questions from Nelson Chong pushed Lucy Li to her limit, as both of these matters were related to Ferrid Chu. Ferrid Chu was the one who had killed White Crane! But due to the powerful poison used by Nelson Chong, she had no choice but to reveal what Nelson Chong wanted to know.
First, Ferrid Chu killed White Crane Taoist priest, and second, the Dragonchant sword was in Ferrid Chu's possession.
Upon hearing this, Nelson Chong was overjoyed!
The Dragonchant sword had always been a coveted treasure for the Thousand Poisons Sect. Now that Nelson Chong had obtained the Tiger Roar scabbard and the Dragonchant sword, it would be a great achievement when he returned to his sect.
So he ordered Lucy Li to call Ferrid Chu and ask him to come quickly.
"How old are you?" Nelson Chong scrutinized Lucy Li, who was indeed a beautiful young woman, especially her enchanting eyes that seemed capable of captivating any man's heart. His gaze settled on her curvaceous figure, and Nelson Chong's breathing became rapid.
"Twenty-two. What's the matter?"
Lucy Li looked at Nelson Chong with disdain.
"I'm forty, so it's a good match. If I'm not mistaken, you're skilled in seduction, right? Just now, you tried to use your charm on me several times, trying to hypnotize me. Unfortunately, you were under the control of my poison, so you couldn't use your seduction. Am I right?" Nelson Chong gloated.
"You despicable scoundrel! Using such filthy methods, I have no respect for you!" Lucy Li exclaimed.
"Haha, in this world, the winner takes all. I don't care what methods I use. I see you're quite attractive, with a good figure. Your big bottom is perfect for bearing children. After I'm done with my business, I'll take you back to the Thousand Poisons Sect and give you some aphrodisiac poison. You should serve me quite comfortably, especially with your seduction skills. It will greatly enhance my pleasure!"
Nelson Chong had already planned his actions for the future and his eyes lit up with excitement.
"You... You're truly twisted!" Lucy Li cursed.
"Haha, curse all you want; the more you curse, the more excited I become!" Nelson Chong laughed lasciviously.
"You bastard! You've destroyed my Hu Xiao villa, I'll fight you to the death!"
A stern voice rang out, and a sword energy burst through the door, heading straight for Nelson Chong.
"Whoosh!"
Nelson Chong's brows furrowed, and he waved the folding fan in his hand. A green smoke immediately shot toward the person who had attacked with sword energy.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The green smoke made contact with the attacker's body and exploded, causing the attacker's skin to blacken and crack!
"You..."
With a longsword in hand, Hu Ying took a few steps back, then spewed out a mouthful of blood. She had already been seriously injured by Hong Man, and now she forcibly unleashed sword energy. As a result, she was once again subjected to Nelson Chong's poison, bringing her to the brink of collapse.
"Hmph! Sneak attacking me, Nelson Chong, you're truly looking for trouble!
The folding fan unfurled, and Nelson Chong swung it fiercely. Instantly, a wave of green energy surged towards the fallen Poseidon Hu.
"A big man like you, brandishing a tattered fan here, what a noise!"
A cold voice resounded, and a mighty force directly surged forward, overpowering the green energy released by Nelson Chong. It engulfed him and then charged towards him.
"Ah!"
Feeling the terrifying force, Nelson Chong's face tightened. After a burst of black mist, he swiftly dodged aside.
Boom!
Lucy Li’s office desk, along with the adjacent window, was directly shattered by the impact.
"Your poison, might be enough to kill a mosquito or a fly. But it’s useless against me!"
Slowly emerging from the black mist, Ferrid Chu was unscathed. The black mist was highly toxic; even a slight touch would cause the skin to corrode, leading to death within half a minute!
However, this black toxic substance had no effect on Ferrid Chu's body. It was indistinguishable from ordinary smoke.
"You actually managed to withstand our Wan Du Men's top-grade poison mist. Ferrid Chu, you're more capable than I thought!"
Nelson Chong coldly remarked. He then moved his right hand behind his back. His right hand had already been shattered by Ferrid Chu's strike.
"Don't waste time. Hand over the Tiger Roar scabbard, or there will be no mercy!" Ferrid Chu glared at Nelson Chong, his gaze sharp.
Looking into Ferrid Chu's eyes, filled with a murderous intent, Nelson Chong felt fear for the first time in his life. Ferrid Chu's earlier strike had proved that the gap in their strength was too great.
In a flash, he grabbed Lucy Li's throat and threatened, "Hand over the Tiger Roar scabbard. No excuses. Hand over the Dragonchant, and it might be negotiable. If you don't, I'll kill her!"
"Her?"
Ferrid Chu looked at Nelson Chong strangely. He said, "Her? Feel free to kill her. I only want the Tiger Roar scabbard!"
"What?"
Lucy Li glared at Ferrid Chu, her annoyance evident. "What do you mean, 'feel free to kill her'? I'm the head of the Tian Hui Pavilion, and men from Maple City have been pursuing me. They've even reached the Spirit Realm. Don't you understand the value of cherishing a beautiful woman?"
"In my eyes, you're no beauty worth cherishing. Why should I cherish you?" Ferrid Chu rolled his eyes.
"Oh my!" Lucy Li was almost driven to anger by Ferrid Chu. Her pretty face turned crimson, and she shouted, "Ferrid Chu, you're completely unreasonable!"
"Are you going to make a move or not? If you don't, I'm going to snatch the Tiger Roar scabbard back!" Ferrid Chu impatiently urged.
Ferrid Chu's actions left Nelson Chong completely at a loss. He glanced at Lucy Li and then at Ferrid Chu, shouting, "Ferrid Chu, do you really think I won't dare to kill her?"
"Hurry up and make your move; I have a dinner appointment." Ferrid Chu said impatiently.
