205 A Battle of Poisons
The battle between the Sacred Heart sect and Nine Dragons sect had been going on for three months now, and there was no sign of it stopping. There was even the Twin Extreme sect and the county governor’s mansion who added fuel to the fire, causing the battle between the two sides to be at a white-hot stage.
People died near September Hook every day. Fortunately, the Nine Dragons sect was not like the Thunderbolt Dojo of the past. The Nine Dragons sect was a huge sect with five to six thousand martial artists and experts. In three months, they had only lost one or two hundred people, so it was not a big deal.
However, the people around Lingjiang county suffered. When the giant beasts attacked, the ants suffered.
Countless villages had been destroyed, and the Sacred Heart sect was frantically recruiting disciples in the surrounding areas. Even the poor could cultivate, and commoners could also become the temptation of geniuses. It made countless people scramble for it.
In order to weaken the Nine Dragons sect, the county governor was very passive in clearing out these Sacred Heart disciples. It was as if he was raising a tiger to bring disaster upon himself and driving the tiger to swallow the wolf.
However, from Qin Huai’s point of view, the chances of the governor overboard were extremely high.
Whoosh!
A poisonous dart instantly streaked across the sky and struck Qin Huai from behind.
“Die!”
A low shout exploded behind him, and the sound of several poisonous darts breaking through the air followed.
Qin Huai quickly twisted his body and nimbly moved around in a small area.
Bang bang bang!
Several poison darts pierced into the ground, completely burying the entire dart. It was a strong force.
Qin Huai glanced at the marks on the ground, feeling a lingering fear. In front of him, the figure of the person had already appeared.
He was bald, ruffian-looking, burly… It was the target of his trip, Zhang Dagen, the most capable lackey of the Zhang family.
“Brat, I’ve been waiting here for a long time!”
Zhang Dagen grinned hideously as if he was looking at a lamb waiting to be slaughtered. He licked the dagger in his hand, looking even more terrifying.
“I think there might be some misunderstanding between us.” Qin Huai squeezed out a smile.
“What a coincidence, I thought so too.” Zhang Dagen chuckled. “That’s why I’m waiting here. I want to resolve the conflict with you. ”
The two of them began to laugh and then walked toward each other.
Zhang Dagen stared at Qin Huai, who was approaching him, and he became even more excited. He was a wild cultivator, so he knew that the latter would definitely ambush him if he got close.
However, he was a top-notch wild cultivator. He used to be best at using dirty tricks, and among those dirty tricks, he was best at using poison. Just by relying on his exquisite poison techniques, he had escaped danger countless times and even killed his enemies.
His previous cultivation technique, qi and blood pills, and his illustrious reputation were all based on poison techniques and unscrupulous schemes. This gave Zhang Dagen the opportunity to join the Nine Dragons sect, a top sect, and become the descendant of a righteous sect.
And now…
Even when dealing with Qin Huai, who was only at the eighth refinement realm, Zhang Dagen still followed the strategy of being careful. The poison in his hands was used to deal with the great refinement blood, which was also something he had carefully prepared for Qin Huai.
He had seen Qin Huai release poison in September Hook. To ordinary people, Qin Huai’s poison techniques might be very exquisite.
However, in Zhang Dagen’s eyes, it was very crude. He only relied on his strange martial arts techniques. Poison techniques were not worth mentioning.
Zhang Dagen started to get excited. After killing Qin Huai, he would be able to advance again. The importance of the family head was more important than the affirmation of the young master.
In the future, he would become the leader of the Nine Dragons sect’s underground world, the leader of the darkness. Just thinking about it made Zhang Dagen feel full of energy.
He watched as Qin Huai drew closer. It was time!
He raised his hand.
Swoosh!
A colorful poisonous object appeared in front of him, and his pupils constricted.
What a fast speed and smooth technique. He was too careless!
This brat had been hiding his strength previously. His poison art was probably not inferior to his.
Zhang Dagen immediately realized that this opponent was not simple.
Whoosh!
The poison in his hand was a step slower, but it was also instantly thrown out. Following that, Zhang Dagen took a few steps back like flowing water to put some distance between him and Qin Huai.
“To deal with you, I specially chose some unorthodox poisons. Your poison resistance is ineffective.” Zhang Dagen sneered.
Activating the white dragon in his body, he pushed the poisonous fog that filled the sky toward Qin Huai.
Boom!
Two powerful air currents collided in the air, producing a shocking boom.
‘This kid…’ As expected, he was as shrewd as he was. He took a deep breath and inhaled a little of the poisonous fog that Qin Huai had sprayed out.
Zhang Dagen’s heart tightened. The two of them actually used the same move. Moreover, they had chosen the unorthodox poisonous fog. He had really underestimated him…
Swoosh!
A few daggers suddenly flew out of the poisonous fog. They were as sharp as before, and the angles were tricky.
Zhang Dagen turned his body and easily dodged it.
“How about this move?!” Zhang Dagen growled. The white dragon wrapped in the poisonous mist in his sleeves turned into two bullets and charged at Qin Huai.
Whoosh!
In the poisonous fog, a pair of fists was actually very close to him.
Zhang Dagen squinted his eyes. The other party had broken through. He grabbed the robe on his body with one hand and yanked it.
With a stabbing sound, the robe was torn into pieces. Under the sunlight, Zhang Dagen’s body reflected the light. The armor under the robe had rows of poison darts hanging on it.
They flashed past. Dozens of poison darts flew in all directions.
Clang clang…
Sparks flew everywhere.
Qin Huai curled up his body and activated his qi shock scale armor. The robe on his body was also torn and tattered, but the dark armor underneath was exposed, blocking all the swift and fierce poison darts outside his body.
