Chapter 512: Trouble

While they were all struggling to respond to the sudden change in circumstances, one of the men was helping the man who had been thrown against the wall. He suddenly called out, Boss, Rong has been poisoned, and the antidote pill isnt working!

The leader of the little group was knocked back a half-step by this revelation. Everyone in their little group turned around in unison to examine their friend. The man who spoke pulled open the mans robes and grabbed the shirt underneath. He tore it away and revealed to the others a trio of green splotches on the poisoned mans chest, the shape of them reminiscent of blooming roses. Then he suddenly cried out and held out his hands. Green splotches began to form on his fingers and then drifted together underneath his skin to form into the shape of a rose on the back of each of his hands. With terrifying speed, the others in the group leapt back. The torn off shirt was laying on the ground and it was dripping a green liquid. It had already spread to one of their companions and they didnt want to be next!

What had once been an intimidating array of burly young men here to intimidate, had become a timid crowd pressed up against the walls of the courtyard, fighting their desire to immediately flee. The lead man seemed to have lost much of his arrogant confidence, but he still held himself proudly and spoke with conviction, It seems we underestimated you, Elder. Forgive these Juniors for misbehaving. A magnanimous person like you wouldnt hold it against us. Can you please provide the antidote?

Despite his words, he didnt say them with any humility. Sage wasnt going to let off this group so easily. Even if he didnt have a grudge with the Chong Wu, he wouldnt be so nice to a bunch of ruffians. Instead, he just snorted, You little brats still think youre worthy of speaking with me, let alone making requests after assaulting my people? Dont you worry, they will still live for quite a few months, maybe a few years if theyre lucky. Now, unless you wish to end up like them, scram!

To punctuate his sentence, Sage used the Law of Corruption to magnify the poison within the two men and also all the many minor aches or injuries the group of Wu men had built up within their bodies. A few of them even yelped in fear and pain, running away without waiting for an order from their boss. The little leader cursed under his breath and fled with them, not a single one of them waiting for their poisoned comrades, putting a wide gap between them in fear of being the next that the poison might spread to.

Tujiu had a pleased smile on his pale face. The poison continued to spread through his body, but he was still quite happy with the result of their confrontation. He took another look at the black mark spreading on his arm and then lifted his other hand into the air, Its alright. Its just an arm. Dont feel bad for me, those bastards probably wouldnt have traded you the real antidote anyway.

Once they were finished, Sage handed Tujiu some pills to restore his energy, You can stay in here and recuperate.

No, I must go back with you. I cant just disappear, we cant give them any room to suspect anything like this place.

Sage trusted the Tiankong Siblings implicitly, and they all knew quite a few of his secrets. Hed told them which things were unusual, but it wasnt until spending a few years roaming around the outside world that they came to know how miraculous both the Universe Ring and Sages Inner World were.

When they had just left the Universe Ring for a short while, Sage was surprised by a powerful aura rushing towards his courtyard. He walked back out into the entrance yard and told Tujiu to stay inside the house. A moment later, that powerful force fell down into his yard from the sky. Sage felt the undulations of law energy around the man, but he couldnt quite make out what exactly it was. Where he passed it looked like a cloud had formed and Sage felt a little splash of moisture when the man touched down. The man was wearing the same outfit as those from before along with their signature mask so Sage immediately knew who had come to visit.

Sage bowed his head and cupped his fist in greeting, Lang Sheng greets the Wu Elder.

Not only did he recognize his faction, Sage also picked out some of the decorations on the mans clothing as one of the three Elders of the Centipede faction. It seems those men worked pretty quick to get their Elder involved in just a couple hours. From the force of the mans aura, which he was unabashedly emitting, he was actually slightly more powerful than Sage. The man was far from polite, speaking brusquely, You poisoned the people of the Wu? This chapter made its debut appearance via N0v3lB1n.
