"Quickly, take off your clothes!"
Cai Wei screamed this out, busily dealing with Tianjizi alone while taking advantage of the fact that he was injured.
Manager Li did not dare slack off. Quickly, he ripped off the clothes he was wearing. Fortunately, it was winter and he was wearing thick winter clothes. Before the blood could stain his skin, he had already stripped.
No sooner had he taken them off than his clothes suddenly caught fire and in a blink turned into ashes.
"Old poison, even your blood is poisonous!"
Manager Li cursed loudly and clad only in his underpants, went back to the cataclysmic fight.
Tianjizi was already wounded from the spear and further attacked by the two of them. He quickly lost the strength to defend himself. On the other hand, Cai Wei was only getting more vigorous with each passing moment. Because Tianjizi was a little slow to respond, she managed to cut off his right arm!
Black blood was spurted out. Cai Wei swiftly flashed to stand in front of Manager Li, shielding him. She also raised her large sleeve, covering her own face.
Tianjizi, having lost an arm, screamed in pain and staggered, nearly falling.
Seeing such a perfect opportunity, Cai Wei wasn’t going to let it slip. She held her treasured sword and slashed at Tianjizi with all her might. Tianjizi, now left only with one arm and in poor physical shape, was soon overpowered. In a quick succession, his other arm was also chopped off by her, and finally, he fell to the ground.
Nangong Huan strode towards them, holding in his hand a long spear identical to Cai Wei’s.
Seeing this, Cai Wei curled her lips. This guy was untrustworthy, he had secretly made a spear identical to hers. But, thankfully, today, if not for this very copied spear, she might have been the one meeting her cruel death today!
"You cannot come over! The blood of this ol’ geezer has extreme poison. It’s too dangerous for you!" Cai Wei yelled.
Nangong Yi had already seen the self-combusting spectacle of Li Chongzong’s clothes and noticed the voluminous Taoist robe that Cai Wei was wearing. Knowing that the robe must have been a shield protecting her, he nodded and said reassuringly, "Okay, I’ll wait for you!"
Cai Wei nodded slightly at him and then turned back towards Tianjizi with her sword.
Strong murderous intent shone in her eyes, cutting through the old man’s body like a knife, Tianjizi quickly was on his guard.
"Wait! You can’t kill me!" He yelled out.
Cai Wei let out a cold laugh, mocking him, she said, "Give me a reason, why can’t I kill you?"
Tianjizi laughs crazily, "Because, your family is in my hands. If I die, they will surely die with me!"
Upon hearing this, Cai Wei trembled as if she was just slapped across her face, the change in her expression was palpable. She took a step forward, one foot landing on Tianjizi’s chest, and angrily demanded, "What did you do to my family?"
Tianjizi laughs maniacally, "I didn’t do anything. Except for hiding them in a place where no one will ever find. Hahaha..."
"What do you want?" She asked through gritted teeth.
Tianjizi knew it was impossible to ask Cai Wei to die for him at this point, especially knowing Manager Li won’t let him live either. Not to mention King Qin who was watching him closely. So, he changed his tack and pleaded, "Let me go!"
If it were anyone else, they might have agreed to the request if their families were held hostage. However, she couldn’t afford to.
"Hehe, don’t you know? My Brother Parrot excels at finding things. Why shouldn’t I let him find them instead of believing you? Oh, I remember now. Brother Parrot is afflicted with Gu poison and cannot assist me. But from what I know, the moment the person who implanted the Gu poison dies, the Gu poison in Brother Parrot can be nullified. Let me think, who was the person who started this Gu poison cursing?"
