Chapter 1429: Chapter 1429: Your Fate Will Be Even More Miserable Than His!

"Senior Sister Hanyi, I can see you’re really fired up from that last fight. How about I leave that woman to you as well, hmm?"

Yun Xiao, who had watched the entire process from start to finish, couldn’t help but let a faint smile surface on his face. Then he raised a hand and pointed at Song Qiuchan, whose arm had been severed, and the words that came out of his mouth made the Ghostly Poisonous Woman’s expression grow several shades darker.

Originally, when Song Qiuchan saw the man and woman joining hands, she had intended to ally with Lu Tianwen and Qi Feng so the three of them could take on two, crushing that man and woman and poisoning them to death on the stone platform with irresistible force.

Who would have thought that after just a single exchange, not even half a cup of tea’s time, Qi Feng would voluntarily concede and retreat in defeat. What remained now was only her and Lu Tianwen.

To be honest, after witnessing Liu Hanyi’s performance just now, although Song Qiuchan did feel a bit of apprehension, she didn’t take it too seriously. She believed that was merely the result of Liu Hanyi catching the opponent off guard.

This wasn’t one of those Poison Meridian Skill duels with strict rules and conditions. The deadly poison unleashed by the opponent could be avoided. So Song Qiuchan was convinced that as long as she didn’t let the venom cast by Liu Hanyi touch her, she would definitely remain invincible.

"Hmph, do you really think making that piece of trash Qi Feng surrender makes you invincible under heaven?"

With these thoughts turning in her mind, Song Qiuchan stepped forward directly, her aura locking onto Liu Hanyi. She didn’t bother too much about that coarse-clothed youth who shared a severed-arm grudge with her. Her cold snort caused Qi Feng, who had just stepped down from the arena, to stumble.

When they first joined forces she had still addressed him as "Sir", but now that she saw he was useless, he had become a "piece of trash". If he could, Qi Feng truly wanted to return to the stone platform and have a good talk with that old woman.

But as a loser, Qi Feng knew that if he went back onto the platform, it would be nothing but shamelessness, so he could only curse inwardly that Song Qiuchan would soon end up in the same state as he did.

"You guy really do take the easy way out whenever you can, don’t you!"

Seeing Song Qiuchan’s movements and hearing Yun Xiao’s words, a faint smile appeared on Liu Hanyi’s face, yet she didn’t refuse. Instead, she too took a step forward.

A faintly strange aura coiled over the stone platform. It was worth mentioning that although this final bout was called a Poison Vein melee, up to this point every clash had been a one-on-one Poison Vein duel.

At this moment, neither Yun Xiao nor Lu Tianwen made the slightest move. It seemed they wanted to see, between these two women, which one would come out on top.

What no one noticed was that in the depths of the eyes of the Vice President of Spirit Fighting Commerce, a hard-to-describe glint flickered from time to time. There was even a faint smile at the corner of his mouth. He showed not the slightest loss of composure despite the tense match.

Yun Xiao, for his part, was calm and unhurried, watching the Poison Vein duel about to erupt in the arena with a smile on his face. In the eyes of those below, this made it easy to believe that he had absolute confidence in Liu Hanyi.

"Little girl, some things only need to be used once. When you make me your enemy, you won’t get a second chance!"

Looking at the young girl not far in front of her, a surge of jealousy suddenly rose in Song Qiuchan’s heart. The words out of her mouth sounded lofty, yet carried a hint of sourness.

After all, although Song Qiuchan was one of the few Heavenly Rank Poison Vein Masters on the Tenglong Continent, she had only broken through to the Heavenly Rank after her first century of life, and even then it was with the help of a Moon Gazing Poison Demon’s energy.

Yet the genius girl of the Sky Poison Institute before her was barely in her early twenties, and had already cultivated her Poison Meridian Skill to a realm equal to her own. How could Song Qiuchan not be jealous?

What’s more, at this moment, Song Qiuchan already knew clearly the relationship between Liu Hanyi and Yun Xiao. Since that was the case, she would start with this girl first.

If she could afflict Liu Hanyi with a vicious poison, forcing her to scream in agony, Song Qiuchan really wanted to see what sort of expression Yun Xiao would have at that time.

"Don’t worry, your end will be even more miserable than Qi Feng’s!"

As for this woman known as the Ghostly Poisonous Woman, Liu Hanyi naturally felt no goodwill. After all, she now knew that inside the Nine Realms Poison Tower, Song Qiuchan had once made a move against Yun Xiao.

Even if the one who suffered a heavy loss in the end had been Song Qiuchan, Liu Hanyi would never let any of those who stood against Yun Xiao off the hook. She held a special kind of feeling toward Yun Xiao after all.

"Boasting shamelessly!"

Song Qiuchan seemed to be both angered and amused by Liu Hanyi’s words. The next instant, a faint black mist surged out from her body, and Yun Xiao was anything but unfamiliar with the aura of this mist.

"Poisonous Spirit Qi!"

Yun Xiao muttered softly. After all, back inside the Nine Realms Poison Tower, he had already learned that Song Qiuchan had once refined Poisonous Spirit Qi, which was why she coveted the Moon Gazing Poison Demon so much.

Of course, such Poisonous Spirit Qi might pose an extreme threat to Ordinary Cultivators or Meridian Refining Masters, but against Yun Xiao and Liu Hanyi it no longer had much use.

If she were facing Yun Xiao, perhaps Song Qiuchan wouldn’t have used this Poisonous Spirit Qi. Yet no matter how she calculated, she never imagined there would be a second person in this world immune to her Poisonous Spirit Qi.

Strictly speaking, this Immortal Poison Body that Liu Hanyi possesses has even stronger resistance to poison than Yun Xiao, and she even uses the assimilative power of the Immortal Poison Body to transform any poison in this world into nourishment to enhance her Poison Meridian Skill.

Hoo...

Endless black fog drifted past in midair like a patch of dark cloud. At this moment, everyone was secretly breaking out in a cold sweat for Liu Hanyi, thinking to themselves that the scene just now when she fought Qi Feng shouldn’t reappear so easily, right?

Liu Hanyi’s methods in dealing with Qi Feng had certainly looked stunning and swift, but on second thought, there was probably a certain element of exploiting a loophole.

That was, Liu Hanyi might have researched Qi Feng’s Seven-Colored Centipede Poison beforehand, so her body had already developed some resistance, and she had also made some targeted preparations, which was why Qi Feng, that poisoner, had no way to guard against it and fell for her trick.

Apart from a handful of people, no one knew that Liu Hanyi possessed the physique of an Immortal Poison Body, which had restraining and assimilating effects on all things in this world. They only knew that poisons were bizarre and unpredictable, and no one could claim to understand every poison under heaven.

Song Qiuchan naturally thought the same. In the Nine Realms Poison Tower there was already that demon Yun Xiao who was immune to Poisonous Spirit Qi; it was impossible that another little girl appeared who could also ignore her Poisonous Spirit Qi, right?

"Mere poisonous gas, and you think it can hurt me?"

Just when Song Qiuchan and everyone below all believed that Liu Hanyi would definitely dodge aside this time, they heard a crisp, clear voice filled with absolute dominance ring out from the girl’s lips.

As that voice fell, Liu Hanyi raised her jade-like arm, once again stretching out her hand to grab toward that Poisonous Spirit Qi that was like a mass of black clouds.

"She’s being way too arrogant!"

At this moment, some of the watching Cultivators repeated the words spoken earlier by someone. After all, Song Qiuchan’s reputation was far greater than Qi Feng’s, and her Poison Meridian Skill was rarely matched.

What’s more, although Song Qiuchan was a woman, her methods were extremely ruthless. Many of her enemies had been poisoned to death by her, their bodies turning into a pool of pus and blood in the end, dying in unspeakable misery.

Some watching Cultivators, seeing Liu Hanyi’s movements, subconsciously squeezed their hearts tight for her, thinking that this girl who had just performed so brilliantly might very well die in the next instant, bleeding from all seven orifices.

No one noticed that when Liu Hanyi stretched out her hand, intending to grab a corner of that black fog, a layer of black radiance had silently appeared in the center of her right palm.

This layer of black radiance was naturally the Immortal Embryo Poison belonging to Liu Hanyi. After all, she was also of flesh and blood; without the protection of this Immortal Embryo Poison, this body of hers would still be corroded by that Poisonous Spirit Qi.

However, with this Immortal Embryo Poison present, no matter how fierce Song Qiuchan’s Poisonous Spirit Qi might be, it could no longer harm Liu Hanyi in the slightest. This was the dominance unique to the Immortal Poison Body.

"I told you your poison is useless. You can have it back!"

A soft shout came from Liu Hanyi’s lips, and right after that, she grabbed a corner of the black fog with her right hand and actually swung the entire mass of black fog up.

At this moment, in Liu Hanyi’s upraised hand, it was as if she held a pure black strip of cloth, which she was whipping back and forth. In the very next instant, the black fog was flung from her hand and shot straight back toward its owner, Song Qiuchan.

"I can’t take it head-on!"

Seeing this scene, Song Qiuchan had no time at all to ponder why the other party was immune to the Poisonous Spirit Qi. She had just personally witnessed Qi Feng’s tragic state and had absolutely no desire to follow in that old codger’s footsteps.

As the mass of cloud-like black fog shrouded toward her, Song Qiuchan even faintly felt that the speed at which it was surging at her was faster than when she herself had controlled it.

One had to know that this cloudlike Poisonous Spirit Qi was not a tangible substance. Controlling this foglike energy as if it were an extension of one’s own body was something no one could do except for Song Qiuchan, its master.

Yet at this moment Liu Hanyi had done exactly that. This was the means of the Immortal Poison Body, the king of all poisons: no matter how fierce the poison, once it fell into Liu Hanyi’s hands, it would become as docile as a kitten.

So next, the watching crowd witnessed an extremely bizarre scene. That black fog, which had merely been spun around once in Liu Hanyi’s hand—that black fog unleashed by Song Qiuchan herself—its master actually didn’t dare to take it head-on.

They saw Song Qiuchan immediately leap sideways, not daring to let that black fog touch her body in the slightest. Compared to her own life, this little bit of lost face was nothing.

At the very least, Song Qiuchan understood that even if the aura of the Poisonous Spirit Qi was no different from before, Liu Hanyi had definitely tampered with it somehow. The instant she touched it, she would follow in Qi Feng’s footsteps.

Swish!

After all, Song Qiuchan was a powerhouse in the Floating Life Realm Late Stage, and her Poison Meridian Skill was distinctive and unique. As she dodged, a streak of black light suddenly shot out and in midair transformed into a colossal beast.
