Chapter 425: Competing with Her in Using Poison?
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Xi Shijin:
He thought that all he needed to do was bring Nan Yan into the Seven Deadly Sins headquarters. However, it turned out that she was here to rescue someone!
Not only did she need to come in once, but she also had to leave again and then bring in even more people!
Xi Shijin knew full well the consequences of betraying the Seven Deadly Sins. However, if he didn’t follow Nan Yan’s instructions, he truly would be better off dead.
He wanted to live; he didn’t want to die. So, he didn’t want to expose his betrayal to the Seven Deadly Sins and hoped to fulfill Nan Yan’s request to gain his freedom as soon as possible.
Xi Shijin harbored a deep hatred for Nan Yan but was forced to comply with her demands, leave for now, and wait for her to bring enough people.
“Xi Shijin, leaving so soon?” Chapman wore a smile that didn’t quite reach his eyes as he looked at them with apparent interest.
Xi Shijin’s heart skipped a beat, and he tightly controlled his emotions, not letting panic show on his face. This man before him had been their colleague for two or three decades, but being around him always felt like being with a hidden snake.
Despite his polite and courteous demeanor, his perpetual smiling appearance made people feel uneasy.
Xi Shijin suppressed his emotions, smiled, and replied, “I suddenly remembered some matters at the research institute that need attending to.
Since the boss isn’t here, I’ll head back for now.”
Chapman glanced at Nan Yan and seemed somewhat intrigued by the new face Xi Shijin had brought along.
Nan Yan lowered her head slightly, restraining her aura, trying her best to appear ordinary.
Chapman casually shifted his gaze away and said, “Oh, in that case, go ahead.”
As they left the Seven Deadly Sins headquarters, Xi Shijin breathed a sigh of relief. Then he hesitated and said, “I think Chapman might become suspicious of our intentions in bringing you along. If we go there again, he’s likely to keep a close eye on us.”
“He’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Don’t be fooled by his perpetual smiles; he’s the most scheming one,” Xi Shijin warned, not willing to take the risk.
Nan Yan’s eyes were filled with determination and a cold, sinister edge as she said, “So what if he suspects us? Even if he keeps an eye on us, we must make this trip.”
“Third Brother and Bai Chen must be saved!”
And she had determined to annihilate the Seven Deadly Sins.
Nan Yan, like a demon from hell crawling out, slowly said, word by word, “If you want to escape, I won’t stop you. As for the poison inside you, I’m sure that there’s no one in this world who can cure it.’
Thinking of that unforgettable excruciating pain that felt like it was eating away at his bones, Xi Shijin quickly shook his head and said, “I dare not escape.”
“But when do you plan to go back to headquarters?” Nan Yan asked.
Xi Shijin hesitated, realizing that his previous excuses would likely be exposed. Going back inside so soon, it was obvious that something was amiss!
Even Chapman, with his dark thoughts, might find it suspicious. Xi Shijin himself felt something wasn’t right. But…
He couldn’t resist Nan Yan and could only reluctantly agree.
Nan Yan feared that time would slip away, and she was more concerned about what would happen if Chapman discovered something was wrong and decided to move Bai Chen and Shen Junqing.
She was even more worried that if she alerted them, they might resort to violence.
So, she had to act quickly and rescue both of them.
One hour later, Qin Yi and Li Yuan arrived.
In addition to the two of them, there were several covert guards who had come to help.
“Yanyan, did you see Bai Chen?” Li Yuan was very concerned about Bai Chen’s condition.
Nan Yan nodded, her expression somewhat grim. “He’s not doing well; he has suffered quite a bit inside.”
A glint of chilling intent flashed in Li Yuan’s eyes. He considered Bai Chen as his little brother, and if someone had mistreated him, there was no way he would let it slide.
“Let’s go rescue him first,” Li Yuan suppressed the killing intent in his heart. They would figure everything else out after rescuing them.
Nan Yan’s gaze turned to Xi Shijin.
With a heavy sigh, Xi Shijin reluctantly said, “Follow me inside.”
One hour later, Xi Shijin led Nan Yan and the others back into the Seven Deadly Sins headquarters.
As they walked in, they found Chapman casually sitting in front of the door. He had set up a small table with coffee, pastries, and a laptop on it.
It seemed like he was lying in wait for them.
He had already guessed that they would come back again.
Chapman leisurely sipped his coffee, tilting his head back lazily, and with a smile, he asked, “Xi Shijin, don’t you want to introduce the name of your esteemed guests?”
Xi Shijin was in deep trouble, and a shiver ran down his spine.
He felt that today might be the day he met his end.
Should he betray Nan Yan, or should he betray the Seven Deadly Sins?
But no matter which choice he made, it seemed like his fate wouldn’t be too favorable.
Nan Yan, on the other hand, had no patience for the man in front of her. She exchanged a glance with Li Yuan, and with their years of understanding, they attacked simultaneously.
Chapman hadn’t expected that they would start fighting without a word, without any conversation.
But he wasn’t just going to sit there and be caught.
Chapman kicked the table in front of him with his foot, causing the chair to slide backward rapidly, evading the joint attack from Nan Yan and Li Yuan.
Not only that, while he was retreating, he pressed a button on a remote control in his hand.
A cloud of white smoke poured down from above Nan Yan and the others.
Xi Shijin’s face changed, and a thought flashed through his mind: “I’m done for!”
Competing with her in using poison?
Nan Yan sneered.
She took a pill bottle from her pocket, pouring out seven small pills. She took one herself and handed the rest to Li Yuan and Qin Yi to distribute.
“Immunity to all poisons for six hours.”
As for Xi Shijin, he no longer had a reason to live.
If he was lucky, he might survive. If the poison was too strong, then his death was deserved.
Breathing in the smoke, Xi Shijin felt his breath becoming labored, as if someone was choking his neck, making it impossible for him to intake oxygen.
This was a poison targeted at the respiratory system. Once inhaled, it would burn the mucous membrane of the respiratory tract within a minute, quickly causing the poisoned person to fall into unconsciousness.
Seeing that the others had taken the antidote and showed no adverse reactions, Xi Shijin struggled to clutch his throat, emitting a hoarse cry, “Save me… please save me!”
After pushing him away, Nan Yan moved like lightning towards Chapman, ready to strike.
Chapman was quite surprised that this group of people could neutralize the poison of their Seven Deadly Sins.
These individuals were in league with the two they had captured earlier.

But who were they, exactly?
Despite subjecting the two captives to severe torture and various brutal methods, they had extracted no useful information from them.
To be honest, he had some admiration for those two.
At the very least, he couldn’t endure those tortures; either he’d take his own life, or he’d give up resistance and confess to find some relief.
But these two individuals had never uttered a word about their own identities from beginning to end. They refused to disclose why they had infiltrated the Seven Deadly Sins headquarters….
