Chapter 1 Slap

Pa—

Chen Xiao's slap wasn't hard. He didn't use his true essence, not even his spiritual energy.

Otherwise, with that slap, Liu Rushi's head would have exploded like a watermelon.

However, although it didn't hurt much, it was extremely humiliating.

"You, you, you trash, how dare you hit me?"

Liu Rushi covered her face, staring at Chen Xiao with wide eyes, in disbelief.

Of course, in her eyes, the one who hit her was the Holy Son of the Earth Sect, Li Shouzhen.

And Li Shouzhen was a well-known useless idiot.

"I, the dignified Holy Son of the Earth Sect, and you call me trash? Who gave you the courage?"

Chen Xiao glared coldly at Liu Rushi and slapped her again.

Pa—

Liu Rushi's delicate little face instantly swelled up, red and high.

"You're asking for death!"

Liu Rushi gritted her silver teeth, and the qi energy in her hands began to circulate.

Although the Hundred Flowers Sect wasn't known for its combat prowess, she still possessed the cultivation of the Transformation Realm.

The reason why she had been slapped twice in a row by Chen Xiao was firstly because she was unprepared, and secondly because she couldn't imagine that the useless Holy Son of the Earth Sect would dare to attack her, and in such a humiliating way.

Of course, these were just her assumptions. Chen Xiao hit her because he wanted to, how could she possibly stop Chen Xiao's slap with her strength?

"You bastard, this old lady will kill you today!"

Liu Rushi finally revealed her true colors, no longer pretending to be innocent. Suddenly, two vine whips covered in thorns appeared in her hands.

The vine whips grew out of her skin; they were part of her body. This was a unique method of the Hundred Flowers Sect disciples.

Pia—

Liu Rushi sprang back more than two meters, whipping Chen Xiao.

Wrapped in a thick and strange qi energy, the vine whip transformed into a green light, swiftly lashing towards Chen Xiao.

The speed of Liu Rushi's whip was very fast, exceeding the speed of sound. Before the "pia" sound had finished echoing, the whip was about to hit Chen Xiao.

However, Chen Xiao's speed was even faster. Just before the whip was about to hit him, he reached out and firmly grabbed the emerald green vine.

"Too slow, too slow… you need to practice more when you get back!"

Chen Xiao shook his head, his face full of disdain, as if he were teaching an unpromising disciple.

Li Miaozhen was stunned, because with her strength, she would never be able to dodge Liu Rushi's whip. Although she wouldn't be injured, she could only choose to withstand it head-on.

However, to grab it casually like the Holy Son, was something she could never do.

After all, the other party wasn't just anyone, but a genuine Holy Daughter of the Hundred Flowers Sect, with the solid strength of the Transformation Realm.

Although the Hundred Flowers Sect wasn't as good as the three super sects of Heaven, Earth, and Man, it was still among the top of the ordinary large sects.

Thinking of this, Li Miaozhen suddenly shouted, "Not good, Holy Son, quickly let go!"

Only then did Li Miaozhen remember that although the Hundred Flowers Sect was good at fighting with plants, their real strength was in using poison.

And the Holy Son just grabbed the vine whip in his hand so carelessly, he would inevitably be plotted against by the other party.

"Hehe, only just reacted now? It's too late!"

Liu Rushi sneered triumphantly.

The thorns on her vine whip were transformed from true essence, and their Hundred Flowers Sect had been feeding on poison since childhood. The toxins had long flowed in their blood, spiritual energy, and even the true essence later on.

Watching the thorns transformed from true essence pierce into the Earth Sect Holy Son's hand, Liu Rushi became more and more smug.

"Li Shouzhen, if you want to live, kneel down and kowtow three times to this grandma, then bark like a dog, and keep barking until I'm satisfied, otherwise, just wait to die from skin ulceration!"

Liu Rushi scolded in a delicate voice.

"You… you woman, so vicious! Quickly hand over the antidote, or this grandma will be rude to you!"

Seeing that the Holy Son had fallen for this bitch's trick again, the Earth Sect Holy Daughter Li Miaozhen was furious. How could she allow this bitch to run wild in front of her?

"Hehe, rude to me? If you want to watch your Earth Sect's Holy Son die with his whole body ulcerated, then go ahead!"

Liu Rushi felt that the situation was completely under her control, and she didn't care about Li Miaozhen's threat at all.

"You…"

Li Miaozhen gritted her teeth, but she was helpless.

She glanced at the Holy Son. For now, the only way was for the Holy Son to compromise, kneel on the ground and bark like a dog, to get the antidote.

However, to her surprise, the Holy Son suddenly smiled.

How could this person still be smiling now?

Li Miaozhen couldn't understand!

Chen Xiao smiled slightly and said, "Whole body ulcerated? Like this?"

As he spoke, he suddenly yanked the vine whip he was holding in his hand.

Then, with a "pia" sound, before the sound had finished echoing, the whip had already struck Liu Rushi's face at a tricky and strange angle.

"You…"

Liu Rushi was naturally angry that she had been hit in the face again, but then she smiled, saying triumphantly, "You're really an idiot, the poison is mine, how could it hurt me?"

Hundred Flowers Sect disciples had been feeding on poison since childhood, and were already immune to all kinds of poisons!

"Hehe, is that so? Your poison can't hurt you, but what about mine?"

Chen Xiao suddenly smiled wickedly.

"Your poison?"

Liu Rushi was stunned for a moment, repeating the sentence.

In her impression, the Earth Sect's cultivation methods had no achievements in the way of poison, and even if they did, they couldn't be more skilled in using poison than their Hundred Flowers Sect.

Just when she thought that the Earth Sect Holy Son was just talking nonsense, Li Miaozhen suddenly covered her mouth and said in shock, "Oh no, what happened to your face?"

"What do you mean, what happened to my face?"

Liu Rushi's face was burning with pain, but she thought it was just from being whipped. However, following Li Miaozhen's gaze, she touched her face and immediately felt a numb, rough texture.

She quickly took out a small bronze mirror from her body. Such a thing must be carried with her by a beautiful woman.

However, when she looked at her face in the mirror, she shouted and dropped the mirror on the ground.

Because on her face, the area where Chen Xiao had just whipped her was already ulcerated and decayed, and the ulcerated wound was still spreading.

On the other hand, Chen Xiao was fine.

What was going on? Li Miaozhen was at a loss, already stunned.

Liu Rushi quickly took out an antidote and swallowed it.

At this moment, Chen Xiao said indifferently, "Your antidote can cure your poison, but how can my poison be cured by your antidote? What a joke!"

"Quickly give me the antidote! Let's exchange them! Otherwise, you'll die from the poison too!"

Liu Rushi forced herself to calm down and said fiercely.

"Is that so?"

Chen Xiao shook his intact palm, "I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you. Your poison has no effect on me at all. On the contrary, my poison, except for me, no one in this world can cure it!"

"You…"

Liu Rushi was so angry that she almost fainted, but for the antidote, she could only beg for mercy, "Holy Son, I really know I was wrong, please, forgive me this time, I won't dare to do it again… Haven't you always wanted to get me? As long as you give me the antidote, I'll give myself to you!"

"Ugh…"

Chen Xiao retched, "I say, have you seen your face? Sleeping with you, I'm afraid I'll be woken up in the middle of the night!"

Liu Rushi recalled the scene she had just seen in the mirror, and she almost vomited herself.

Moreover, the ulceration of the wound was still spreading. She didn't dare to waste time and said resignedly, "Then what exactly do you want? What do I have to do for you to give me the antidote?"

Chen Xiao smiled slightly, "It's simple, do to me what I once did to you, and that will do."

"What did you say?"

It wasn't that Liu Rushi didn't understand what Chen Xiao meant, she just didn't expect Chen Xiao to force her to do this.

"Take off your clothes, kneel in front of me, and bark like a dog, until I'm satisfied."

Chen Xiao explained it again, fearing that she didn't understand.

"You… Li Shouzhen, don't go too far! If this gets out, it won't be good for either of us!"

Liu Rushi said angrily.

"Is that so? Then if I was the one who was poisoned just now? Do you still think it wouldn't be good for either of us?"

Chen Xiao asked calmly.

Liu Rushi's tone stagnated, and she couldn't say anything.

She could only blame herself for never taking the Earth Sect Holy Son seriously, thinking that she could be teased and ravaged at will!

Little did she know that the current Earth Sect Holy Son was not the Earth Sect Holy Son of the past.

Li Miaozhen was dumbfounded. The Holy Son had become so powerful!

Not only was he powerful in strength, but also in mind and means, he was not the same as before.

"Senior Brother Li, I advise you not to go too far. The Heavenly Pride Battle is coming soon, it's better for us to be amicable. Just now, Senior Sister Liu was just joking with you. I believe that even if you were the one who was poisoned, Senior Sister Liu wouldn't really not give you the antidote."

Just then, a magnetic voice came. A man with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, with a dignified appearance, came to Liu Rushi's rescue.

This person was also one of Liu Rushi's companions. As soon as the man finished speaking, Liu Rushi hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, Senior Brother Jian is right. I was just trying to joke with Li Shouzhen, but I didn't expect this person to be so humorless, sob sob sob, Senior Brother Jian, you must help me!"

Obviously, in Liu Rushi's opinion, this Senior Brother Jian's strength was above Li Shouzhen's.

"Don't worry, Senior Sister Liu, I believe Senior Brother Li will definitely not make things difficult for you!"

The man surnamed Jian gave Liu Rushi an 'assurance' look, and then said to Chen Xiao in a gloomy tone, "I'm right, Senior Brother Li?"

As he spoke, he shook his sword scabbard, and the buzzing sound of a sword rang from within the scabbard…
