187 Fulfilling the Daoist’s Words
“Thank you for your supper, Sister!” Li Buhu picked up the bowl and wolfed down the entire bowl of eight treasures porridge.
“Hello…”
Before Qin Huai could say anything, Li Buhu’s face instantly turned black.
“Poison. It’s poisonous …” Li Buhu’s eyes were filled with shock.
Qin Huai, who was beside him, slapped him on the back. He opened his mouth and a red ball flew into it.
“Can’t you see how many poisonous powders are floating in this room because of you?” Qin Huai shook his head.
He had never met someone like Li Buhu who had no affinity with poison path. Not to mention his comprehension ability, he wasn’t even very familiar with releasing poison.
“Miss, you should eat too.” Qin Huai threw an antidote pill to Li Shaoxiang.
“Husband, how many cultivators can this poison kill?” Li Shaoxiang ate the red pill Qin Huai threw at her and looked at the bottles and jars in the room curiously.
“For most poisons, one will die after inhaling a little of it after the fourth refinement. The remaining thirty percent of the poison can affect great blood refinement martial artists.”
When Qin Huai mentioned this, he explained further, “There are also a few things that are used for tracking. If they are contaminated or inhaled into the body, they will leave a mark. I can use ordinary sparrows to track them.
“This is a mixed poison. There won’t be any problems inhaling it alone. However, after adding a primer, it would instantly detonate and quickly spread through his body.
“And this… A potent aphrodisiac that can make the lower body of a male burn with fire. I’ll prepare a set of these for you to use for self-defense…”
Qin Huai spoke in a somewhat absent-minded manner. Then, he looked up in shock and realized that Li Shaoxiang was looking at him with a gaze filled with fanaticism and worship.
“As expected of my husband! Even this kind of despicable poison can play so many tricks!” Li Shaoxiang looked very excited. Or rather, she was very excited to see something related to Qin Huai.
Qin Huai listened to Li Shaoxiang’s voice. The contents of the letters Li Shaoxiang had sent over the past few days echoed in his mind as if they had a voice.
If it were anyone else who said these words, Qin Huai would probably think that they were mocking him. But when it came out of Li Shaoxiang’s mouth, he knew that she was genuine in praising him.
“Sister Shaoxiang, since you’ve already sent the supper over, you should hurry up and leave. Don’t delay me and my brother-in-law from studying the poison.” Li Buhu recovered from the poison and waved at Li Shaoxiang.
“Are you ordering me?” Li Shaoxiang looked at Li Buhu with a cold gaze.
One after the other, it was as if ice and fire were two heavens, causing Li Buhu, who was originally addicted to making poison, to instantly wake up.
“Well… That… How would I dare, Sister Shaoxiang? Brother-in-law, I’ve learned enough today. It’s getting late, so I’ll go back and rest first…” Li Buhu rushed out with his spoils of war as if he was rubbing oil under his feet.
Inside the house, only the red and green poison powder, Qin Huai, and Li Shaoxiang were left.
“Husband, you are really amazing. In just half a month, you’ve already firmly controlled Fourth Uncle’s bloodline.”
When Li Shaoxiang looked at Qin Huai, the ice and snow in her eyes melted, turning into extreme fanaticism. The crazy followers of the Sacred Heart sect might not even be as fanatical as her.
“Since I promised Miss to revitalize the Li family, I naturally have to show some results.” Qin Huai remained calm as he spoke to Li Shaoxiang while grinding the poison.
“I also heard that you killed Wu Zian today?”
Qin Huai nodded.
“That man was a heaven’s favorite a few years ago. His combat strength should not be underestimated…”
“The prodigies of the past are in the past. There’s nothing to be proud of.”
“Wu Zian seemed to have contacted Zhang Haoyue’s men yesterday,” Li Shaoxiang said.
Qin Huai frowned. Zhang Haoyue again? Once or twice was a coincidence, but three or four times?
That harmless face appeared in his mind. Qin Huai was now sure that Zhang Haoyue was one of the people who wanted to kill him.
The Zhang family wanted him dead, and so did the Li family. There was also the county governor and Song Ya…
As for those who disliked him, there were countless of them. How could he be worthy of the killing intent of such a big shot?
“Husband, I also brought back a lot of great medicine that can replenish qi and blood.” Li Shaoxiang, who was dressed in a red dress, had unknowingly climbed onto Qin Huai’s chest.
The fervor in her eyes allowed Qin Huai to truly experience what a ‘burning gaze’ was.
“Where did you get so much money to buy medicine?” Qin Huai was puzzled.
These days, Li Shaoxiang would send a large box of medicine every two days. Many of them were extremely expensive items.
In the Nine Dragons sect’s treasure pavilion, the number of points required was astounding. So, even with her status, it was probably not easy for her to get these.
“My mother left me a dowry in the past, so I used all this money to buy medicine for my husband. It’s just that those medicines are not easy to find, so we can only send some over every few days,” Li Shaoxiang said matter-of-factly.
Qin Huai had mixed feelings. He had been taken care of by Li Shaoxiang too much. “What right do I have…”
“Husband is our destiny!” Li Shaoxiang’s eyes were still filled with fanaticism.
Qin Huai’s voice was calm as he said, “I will fulfill the old Daoist of the Green Cloud Temple’s words.”
Li Shaoxiang’s slender fingers clung onto Qin Huai’s chest, her eyes filled with affection. Qin Huai did not refuse.
That night, Qin Huai had many forbidden techniques, and many people did not sleep.
