Chapter 130 Cheng Hong Ling is Poisoned
Cheng Hong Ling entered the room and gently placed Qi Huang on a chair. Facing her own clone, she would absolutely not be gentle and polite even with several close senior sisters.
Qi Huang slumped onto the chair like a wet noodle, her heart beating so hard she could hear it clearly. The killing intent on the Fierce Weapon List was something she, a newbie, could not resist.
Indeed, killing intent had nothing to do with cultivation level or spiritual sense; only those with strong mental fortitude could resist it.
“Speak, what do you want the Ghost Tomato for?”
Cheng Hong Ling stood before her clone and asked leisurely.
“…”
Qi Huang fell into thought. She relied on the Ghost Tomato to become stronger. Because that thing was scarce, it was easy to be controlled by others, so she had to keep it a secret from outsiders. But what about facing her main body?
Qi Huang re-examined the stunningly beautiful Cheng Hong Ling before her. If she maintained the status quo, her fate and her own were undoubtedly tied together, so there was no need to hide anything. But what if her identity was exposed?
‘If my true identity is exposed, will she help the Spiritual Wisdom assimilate me completely, or do other things that are detrimental to me?’
This was what Qi Huang was worried about, so she hesitated, not knowing whether to speak.
“Not talking? Then you’ll never get out of here.”
Cheng Hong Ling fiddled with the Fierce Weapon List in her hand.
“Wu He, that old bastard, even after death, he won’t let me have an easy time.”
Qi Huang trembled with anger.
“I think he’s quite good, sending me such a great gift even after death. Otherwise, if I can’t even control a clone, I’m afraid I’ll truly become a laughing stock in the cultivation world.”
Cheng Hong Ling teased.
Qi Huang was speechless and contemplated how to escape from the clutches of this “demoness.”
“Take your time to consider. I have plenty of time. No rush!”
Cheng Hong Ling teased and then turned to walk to the table, unhurriedly drinking tea.
Qi Huang was in a dilemma, but she quickly realized that she didn’t have to tell the truth.
Thinking this, Qi Huang lied, “Actually, I discovered that thing can be used as hair dye. People with white hair can regain their youth immediately after dyeing it, and it’s fade-proof. This is a great business opportunity.”
“What?”
Cheng Hong Ling was astonished. This answer was completely unexpected.
“You mean that thing can be used as hair dye?”
Cheng Hong Ling confirmed after recovering her senses.
“Yes! See? My hair is so soft and black because I used it. What do you think those uncles and aunts with white hair will think when they see it?”
As Qi Huang said this, she almost believed it herself.
“Indeed, they will be extremely envious, just like the villagers in Bajiao Village.”
Cheng Hong Ling slowly stood up, her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly.
“It’s not like everyone will be poisoned.”
Qi Huang retorted, thinking quickly.
“Are you saying you won’t be poisoned?”
Cheng Hong Ling had a half-smile on her face.
“Of course!”
Qi Huang answered very decisively, she was still quite confident about this.
“Alright! Then bring some Ghost Tomato and show me.”
Cheng Hong Ling requested mercilessly.
“Now? Let’s not. I need to plant those Ghost Tomato seeds now. They need to be watered with the most sufficient amount of Ghost Tomato juice to germinate. If I use it now, it would be like draining the pond to catch the fish.”
Qi Huang quickly explained.
“I just want to verify if what you said is true or false. I didn’t ask you to use how much.”
Cheng Hong Ling rolled her beautiful eyes.
Qi Huang wished she could slap herself. After thinking it over, she had no choice but to stand up and walk towards the room. Unexpectedly, after only a few steps, her feet felt light, and she was picked up by her main body again.
“You tremble three times with every step. Are you suffering from kidney deficiency?”
Cheng Hong Ling asked impatiently.
“…”
Qi Huang was extremely ashamed to be carried, and her heart was filled with resentment: ‘Do you not know if I have kidney deficiency? Besides, in my current state, it’s probably difficult to have kidney deficiency?’
‘However, your embrace is quite comfortable! In this world, perhaps only I have this good fortune, right?’
Qi Huang’s heart fluttered at the soft touch, and she subconsciously leaned closer.
A moment later, the two arrived in Qi Huang’s room.
Forced by the situation, Qi Huang could only shakily take out a Ghost Tomato and carefully tear a small hole in its skin with her sharp pink nails.
“Wait, this thing is really poisonous. Don’t be overconfident, or even a cultivator will have a hard time.”
Cheng Hong Ling quickly reminded her. After all, they had telepathy, and she was afraid of suffering along with her.
“It’s okay, I’m immune to this poison. Don’t you believe me? Just watch.”
Qi Huang smiled confidently. As the black juice flowed out, she picked up a regular comb and dipped a little of it, then began to comb her hair. With her main body watching, she wouldn’t be foolish enough to use the Tongming Comb.
“Wait, are you sure you’re going to comb it like this?”
Cheng Hong Ling reached out to stop her, looking uneasy.
“Anyway, this is how I comb it. It’s not the first time. Don’t worry.”
Qi Huang replied while lifting a strand of her hair from behind and combing it with the Tongming Comb.
“How is it?”
A moment later, Cheng Hong Ling asked cautiously.
“It’s incredibly good.”
Qi Huang smiled brilliantly, looking completely unlike someone who was poisoned.
“You really won’t be poisoned?”
Cheng Hong Ling was stunned and stood up to examine her clone from head to toe.
“I told you long ago, but you didn’t believe me. I’ve tried it. Once this thing gets on you, it’s hard to fade. As long as I find someone with a similar constitution, I can make a lot of money by selling this ‘hair dye’ to them.”
Seeing that she had fooled her main body, Qi Huang continued to babble.
“Let me try!”
Cheng Hong Ling was a little unconvinced and extended her jade finger to touch the Ghost Tomato.
“Wait, are you sure you want to touch it? Do you know the way to the doctor’s clinic?”
Qi Huang was startled and immediately stopped her.
“You’re overthinking it. I am a dignified cultivator of the Guiyi Realm. Even if this thing is poisonous, its effect on me will be limited.”
Cheng Hong Ling impatiently pushed aside Qi Huang’s hand and stubbornly touched the juice of the Ghost Tomato. However, she soon frowned, because her jade finger had already swollen and turned red, clearly poisoned.
“Are you alright?”
Qi Huang stared dumbfounded and quickly asked with concern.
“Are you crazy for money? Who would you sell this to?”
Cheng Hong Ling, enraged and embarrassed, stood up and walked downstairs.
“It wasn’t me who made you touch it, why are you taking it out on me?”
Qi Huang complained unhappily for a few sentences, then quickly chased after her.
Cheng Hong Ling was not lying. Her cultivation was strong, and her physique was amazing. After circulating her cultivation technique twice, she recovered. However, having suffered a loss, she lost interest in the Ghost Tomato.
Seeing that she had dealt with her main body, Qi Huang finally breathed a sigh of relief and then went out to buy materials on her own.
Qi Huang arrived at the plaza and was surprised to find it very lively today. However, it didn’t seem like a good thing, because most of the people there were from Bajiao Village or Panshan Village, hoping that the sect would uphold justice for them.
“Sect Leader Qin, our Bajiao Village is within the sphere of influence of the HongHua Sect. Now that we have been harmed like this by the HeYi Sect, you must bring justice for us.”
“Yes, so is our Panshan Village. We have been besieged by the HeYi Sect for more than half a year. Our father lost an arm saving us. Who can bring justice for him?”
“If you fear the HeYi Sect, then please inform the Immortal Alliance and let the Immortal Alliance make the decision.”
…
The people from the two villages, having suffered greatly, could not bear it for another moment, which is why they came to the sect so quickly.
“Esteemed elders and folks, I can understand your feelings, but those people from the HeYi Sect are determined not to admit their fault. It won’t be easy to make them yield.”
“Yes! Everyone, please go back first and let us discuss it. We will inform you immediately once we have a result.”
…
Elder Ruan and Xu Mei were present to maintain order. Although they sympathized, they could not make any promises at the moment.
“Everyone, don’t worry. I will handle this matter for you. Within half a month, I will definitely make the HeYi Sect kowtow and apologize to you.”
A clear voice rang out. It was none other than Qi Huang.
