After Defying the Villain's Fate for Nine Lifetimes, the Heroines Turn Mad!-Chapter 307 - Jiang Chen Would Never Harm Me
Chapter 307: Jiang Chen Would Never Harm Me
In the Ancient Pill Tower, the Legacy Tower.
No sooner had Zhang Hu left than Lin Feng woke up from his unconscious state.
After looking around, Lin Feng let out a long sigh of relief.
Touching his swollen cheek, he had a bitter expression.
Although he had been slapped by Jiang Chen again, he had survived.
The fact proved that his Way of Laying Low were somewhat useful, at least it had brought him to Jiang Chen’s location.
“Damn it!”
Thinking back to being chased by Qingning for three thousand li, he was furious.
It’s not that he didn’t calculate the chances of escaping successfully, but he hadn’t expected Qingning to be so persistent, chasing him for a full three thousand li without giving up.
“Are you awake?” A pleasant voice came from the side.
Hearing this, Lin Feng was shocked.
When he looked in the direction of the voice, he was even more startled!
Because at that moment, Shi Ning was in his room!
Lin Feng was afraid of Shi Ning.
Since entering the Ancient Pill Tower, he had always avoided Shi Ning, running away whenever possible when he met her.
But now, the beautiful woman he feared was right before his eyes!
This not only made him more fearful but also went against his Way of Laying Low, which included avoiding women.
“Gulp...”
After swallowing hard, Lin Feng tried to struggle and escape, but he couldn’t muster any strength.
“Don’t move, you’ve just taken my medicinal pill and need time to recover,” Shi Ning said, stopping him.
“Your medicinal pill?!”
Lin Feng was even more shocked.
A woman’s medicinal pill, especially a beautiful woman’s, he had taken one before, but it turned out to be a poison pill!
In an instant, Lin Feng was sweating profusely.
Using the little spiritual power he had left, he carefully examined his body.
Sure enough, he was indeed poisoned!!!
If it weren’t for Old Man Tianji constantly using his soul power to resist the toxins, he would have already suffered a toxin outbreak and who knows what would have become of him!
“Lin Feng, you have taken a poison powder made from a hundred kinds of poisons! My soul power is no longer sufficient to support you, I must rest for now...” Old Man Tianji’s exhausted voice sounded.
After that, no matter how Lin Feng called out in his mind, all he got in return was Old Man Tianji’s silence.
And with the loss of soul power suppression, the toxins in his body erupted instantly.
His flesh, bones, and meridians were all covered with a layer of black.
This black toxin ate away at his body like a festering sore!
“Pfffft!!”
Lin Feng suddenly spat out a mouthful of black blood.
Pointing at Shi Ning, he shouted, “Indeed, a woman’s heart is the most poisonous! Shi Ning, you’re a madwoman too!”
Lin Feng thought it was Shi Ning who had poisoned him without a doubt, not knowing it was actually Zhang Hu’s doing.
Old Man Tianji knew the truth, but there was no time to explain.
As for Shi Ning, upon hearing Lin Feng’s words, her brows furrowed immediately.
Madwoman?
Lin Feng dared to call her, the Tower Master, a madwoman?
This was outrageous!
If she hadn’t seen that Lin Feng was truly in bad shape, she would have punished him!
“You’re poisoned. I have some pills here that can suppress the toxins, take them first,” Shi Ning said while holding back her anger and stepping forward.
“Don’t come any closer!!”
Lin Feng recoiled in terror while curling up on the bed.
“...”
Shi Ning was speechless.
With no other choice, she had to summon the Great Elder of the Ancient Pill Tower, who was also Lin Feng’s master, Yu Shi.
Upon hearing that his beloved disciple was severely poisoned, Yu Shi rushed over.
Seeing Lin Feng’s flesh shriveled to the bone, lying on the bed twitching with black blood oozing from his orifices, Yu Shi was even more anxious.
Yu Shi picked up Lin Feng and asked loudly, “Disciple, what on earth happened to you?!”
After hearing the voice and seeing the person, Lin Feng’s face was covered in tears!
Among the countless cultivators in the world, only upon seeing Yu Shi did he feel as if he had seen a family member!
He wanted to pour out his grievances, but being continuously abused was too embarrassing to speak of.
“If you don’t want to talk, it’s okay, it’s good that you’re back,” Yu Shi patted Lin Feng’s shoulder and comforted him softly.
“Master...”
Lin Feng was moved again, clutching Yu Shi’s old hand tightly.
“Don’t worry, I’m here,” Yu Shi patted him back.
The next moment, both master and disciple had tears in their eyes, staring blankly at each other, both with an expression that said, ‘everything can be understood without words.’.
Seeing this, Shi Ning got goosebumps.
It had been rumored not long after Lin Feng entered the Ancient Pill Tower that this Son of Destiny didn’t like women and had special preferences.
Initially, Shi Ning didn’t believe it, as she found Lin Feng quite pleasing to the eye.
But now? She had to believe it!
After all, the way these two master and disciple looked at each other was just awkward!
Especially Lin Feng’s attitude towards Yu Shi, which was completely different from his attitude towards her!
At this moment, Shi Ning finally understood.
No wonder... No wonder Lin Feng didn’t want to take her as his master, it turned out he had ‘thoughts’ about Yu Shi!
With this thought, she suddenly felt a chill.
“Master, the Tower Master is harming me! You must help me detoxify...” Suddenly, Lin Feng cried out urgently.
“????”
Shi Ning was completely dumbfounded.
When had she ever harmed Lin Feng? If it weren’t for her timely arrival, Lin Feng would have been buried alive?
Shi Ning also guessed that someone had tampered with the medicinal pill she gave to Lin Feng, so she said helplessly, “It must be Jiang Chen who instructed Zhang Hu to poison you.”
“You’re talking nonsense!”
Lin Feng didn’t believe it and shouted loudly, “That’s impossible! Jiang Chen would never harm my life!”
“Why is it impossible?” Shi Ning was puzzled.
“You don’t understand, this is a matter between men. Although Jiang Chen is bad, he also has his merits,” Lin Feng sighed.
The matter he referred to was a self-assumed agreement.
He believed that Jiang Chen had tormented him yet also saved him numerous times, all for the sake of one day having a fair, just, and open duel with him, the Son of Destiny.
However, in Shi Ning’s view, this was completely twisted.
A matter between men? What kind of matter could that be between men?
Could it be...
Does Lin Feng have feelings for Jiang Chen too?!
Shi Ning was stunned.
The source of this c𝐨ntent is freёnovelkiss.com.
She hadn’t expected Lin Feng to not only have peculiar tastes but also to be so greedy!
‘Fortunately, Jiang Chen is secretly in love with me, so this must be Lin Feng’s wishful thinking.’ Shi Ning felt relieved in her heart again.
After feeling that she had seen through Lin Feng’s true nature, she left with a flick of her sleeve.
The room was filled with an air of bromance, and she feared she would truly vomit if she stayed any longer.
Yu Shi also didn’t believe that Shi Ning would harm Lin Feng.
After all, Shi Ning was the Ancient Pill Tower Tower Master, and poisoning a prodigy of the Ancient Pill Tower would bring her no benefit.
He was more inclined to believe that Lin Feng was harmed by Jiang Chen.
Lin Feng’s earlier words were dismissed by him as nothing more than delirious nonsense due to the poisoning and frustration.
“It’s quite a coincidence, I have recently refined a detoxifying pill. This pill is unnamed, and while it’s not very effective against specified toxins, it works wonders on mixed toxins. Take it quickly!” Yu Shi took out a translucent pill and said.
Lin Feng didn’t have the slightest doubt and swallowed the pill immediately.
Just as Yu Shi had said, after the pill entered his stomach, the toxins that were spreading throughout his body were indeed suppressed and began to be expelled from his body under the effect of the pill.
Although the pill was effective, Lin Feng estimated that it would take at least a month to completely detoxify himself.
But now, there were only a few days left until the start of the Alchemy Conference...
“Don’t worry, the Alchemy Conference might be postponed,” Yu Shi said, seeing Lin Feng’s concern.
“Postponed? Why?” Lin Feng was puzzled.
“This is a strange matter...”
Yu Shi frowned and explained in detail: “More than a month ago, pill refiner masters from various places began to arrive at the Ancient Pill Tower. But strangely, all of these people have disappeared!”
“Disappeared?” Lin Feng was even more puzzled.
It’s one thing for one or two people to disappear, but what kind of situation is this where a whole group has vanished?
“The specifics are still under investigation, but there are rumors that on the borders of the Ancient Pill Tower, a group of lunatics who only show their heads and hide their tails has appeared, capturing anyone they see, regardless of age or gender!” Yu Shi said.
“L-Lunatics?!”
Lin Feng shuddered with fear.
Suddenly, he had a bad premonition about this Alchemy Conference...
