40: Chapter 40 Protecting Our Master!

"Brother Yan! Watch out!"

Qian Duoduo and Chen Yan were standing opposite each other, and he discovered the ambusher first.

But the sword light arrived in a flash, and he only had time to call out a warning.

Chen Yan felt a chill behind him and instinctively used his Flowing Light Movement Technique.

"Rip!"

Just as he shifted sideways, the sword light grazed his left arm, tearing it open!

"Hiss!"

Blood sprayed from Chen Yan's arm, and before it hit the ground, it turned black!

The black blood splattered on the ground, making a sizzling sound; its strong corrosive properties actually melted a large pit in the ground!

"The sword is poisoned!"

Qian Duoduo couldn't help but exclaim, quickly taking out his portable antidote pills and feeding them to Chen Yan.

But after the antidote was swallowed, a wisp of black Qi on the wound was still squirming crazily, burrowing into Chen Yan's Meridians!

The fatty's antidote had absolutely no effect!

For a moment, Chen Yan felt the world turn black, became dizzy, and his heart started beating violently!

"Hahaha! Chen Yan, you've been struck by the Heart-Devouring Poison. Let's see how you survive this time!"

The sword light had not yet dissipated when a familiar, sharp voice rang out in front of Chen Yan!

Her words were filled with crazy hatred!

"Heart-Devouring Poison?"

Chen Yan clutched his wound, supporting his body, and looked at the ambusher. His expression changed instantly: "Lin Qinger, it's you!"

The person who arrived was actually Lin Qinger!

But her originally delicate face was now twisted and hideous, her eyes full of endless resentment!

The pitch-black longsword in her hand was constantly emitting a chilling black Qi!

Qian Duoduo looked at the black sword in her hand, his face turned pale instantly, and he silently took two steps back.

Heart-Devouring Poison!

This was the most famous poison of the Blood-Devouring Sect!

Under the influence of the poison, the victim's blood would burn out, and their heart Meridians would snap, leading to death!

This poison had no known cure to this day; whoever was struck would surely die!

"Chen... Brother Yan, are, are you okay?"

The fatty looked at Chen Yan nervously, not knowing what to do.

"Hahaha! This piece of trash will definitely die today!"

Lin Qinger looked at Chen Yan's swaying figure and laughed crazily:

"Once struck by the Heart-Devouring Poison, even the gods can't save you! Do you still expect to live?"

Chen Yan's legs felt weak, and his body swayed.

The toxicity of this Heart-Devouring Poison was too fierce!

In the blink of an eye, the black Qi had already burrowed into his Meridians and darted up to his shoulder!

Now his entire left arm was pitch black, and even the left half of his body had become numb!

If there was no solution, he would probably really die here!

He raised his head and chuckled at Fatty Qian: "Don't worry, I won't die!"

Then, under Lin Qinger's mocking gaze, he took a long object out of his bosom!

A long, red, shiny... Spicy Stick!

That's right!

It was exactly the Detox Spicy Stick obtained from the System's ten-draw!

[Detox Spicy Stick: Can cure all poisons in the world, just a little spicy~]

Chen Yan didn't know if the "all poisons" mentioned by the System included the Heart-Devouring Poison.

But at this moment, he could only treat a dead horse as if it were alive!

As for the "little spicy" written after the Spicy Stick.

Heh.

If it wasn't spicy, could it still be called a Spicy Stick?

Without another word, before his consciousness faded, he grabbed the Spicy Stick and stuffed it into his mouth.

As soon as the Spicy Stick entered his mouth, he didn't even need to chew.

It instantly turned into pure Spiritual Qi and poured into his body.

A sensation of spicy pleasure rushed straight to his crown, stimulating him to shiver all over.

"So refreshing!"

Chen Yan shouted, full of energy!

The effect of the Detox Spicy Stick was immediate. In the blink of an eye, the black Qi on his body melted away like snow in the sun!

The Heart-Devouring Poison, which everyone in the Tianxuan Continent feared, was just like that, cured!

Chen Yan smacked his lips, seemingly still savoring the taste of the Spicy Stick.

But the next second.

"Hiss~~!"

Chen Yan felt a burning sensation in his mouth, as if a ball of fire was burning inside!

Before he could react, his lips swelled rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In the blink of an eye, two thick sausage lips hung on his mouth.

Red and swollen, shiny.

And a little... sexy.

Chen Yan: "Σ(°△°|||)"

He couldn't help but touch his lips and turned to look at Qian Duoduo: "Look at me, am I sexy?"

Qian Duoduo looked at his sausage lips, stunned, and then burst into laughter like a pig.

"Pfft hahahaha!"

"Sexy, sexy! Brother Yan, your lips are absolutely amazing!"

"Hahaha! Sorry, I usually don't laugh!"

"Unless I can't help it! Hahaha!"

"It's... it's too funny!"

Qian Duoduo laughed until he was bent over, tears streaming down his face.

Lin Qinger looked at Chen Yan, who was unscathed, and the crazy smile on her face froze.

For this Heart-Devouring Poison, she had spent a full 500 Spirit Stones to buy this little bit from the black market!

For this day, she had practiced diligently, suffering humiliation at the hands of that old thing Li Qingxuan more times than she could count!

But what was the result?

She had worked so hard to ambush him, and that piece of trash Chen Yan just ate a weird snack and was fine?

They didn't even take her seriously and were there mocking her!

"Bastards! You! How dare you ignore me!"

Lin Qinger screamed angrily, her expression becoming increasingly twisted and hideous!

"Chen Yan! Why aren't you poisoned! Why aren't you dead!"

"You piece of trash! Why don't you just die!"

The more she spoke, the crazier she became, her aura surging wildly, and a pressure emanated from her!

"You! All of you deserve to die!"

"Boom!"

In the surprised eyes of Chen Yan and Qian Duoduo, a Foundation Establishment Perfection aura erupted from Lin Qinger.

She rose in a rage, the spiritual sword in her hand turning into a sky full of sword shadows, enveloping Chen Yan.

"I'll kill you first, then I'll go kill that bitch Leng Qingshuang!"

"I clearly awakened the mystic ice sword tassel, I clearly am her most suitable Disciple!"

"Why does she look down on me? Why does she despise me for having an impure heart? Why would she rather take you, a piece of trash, as a Disciple than me!"

"I am clearly ten thousand times better than you! I am ten thousand times better than you!"

"Go to hell! You all deserve to die!"

"Reincarnation Sword Technique—Yellow Springs!"

[Detected host's strong desire to defend Revered Master, issuing new task: Defend Our Revered Master!]

[Defend Our Revered Master: My Revered Master, only I can defy! Defeat the insolent Lin Qinger! Task completion reward: One random Spiritual Artifact!]

"Swish!"

There was no need for the System's task reminder.

Chen Yan's face, which was still joking with Qian Duoduo, instantly turned cold.

He flicked his longsword, cold aura rolling off his body, and looked at Lin Qinger with icy eyes:

"You low-life!"

"When you failed to frame me back then, you first incited others to attack me; later, you secretly hired assassins to intercept and kill me halfway down the mountain!"

"I didn't expect that today, not only would you use poison, but you would also dare to insult my Revered Master! You are simply courting death!"

Leng Qingshuang was not only his Revered Master, but also the backing he could rely on to gain a foothold in this Taiqing Sword Sect and in this world!

Under the subtle influence of the Rebellious Disciple System, he had long regarded Leng Qingshuang as his exclusive possession!

In his heart, the only person who could bully his Revered Master was him!

Anyone else who dared to be disrespectful to his Revered Master must be killed!

"Hum!"

A sword hum resonated in the forest!

Inside Chen Yan's Dantian, that mystic ice sword tassel began to tremble non-stop.

A Mystic Ice Sword Intent emanated from his longsword!

"If you had just cowered on the Fifth Peak, I would have been helpless against you!"

"But since you delivered yourself to my door today, let's settle all our old and new scores together!"

"Mystic Ice Water-Splitting Sword—Glacier Cracking Earth!"
