All Heavens: Starting with Little Li Flying Dagger

Chapter 57 Poisoning Methods That Are Hard to Prevent

In another room, the woman in white who had led Gu Yu there stood with her hands at her sides, her expression respectful.

A woman sat in front of her, an ordinary-looking woman.

She is the famous Lady of the South China Sea.

However, her current appearance is not her true face; even none of her disciples have ever seen her true face.

It is said that the South China Sea Lady can not only disguise herself as an old woman, a woman, or a young girl, but can even disguise herself as a man, without anyone noticing a single flaw.

"He stayed?"

The South China Sea Lady's voice sounded quite ordinary, somewhat hoarse. However, this wasn't her original voice, because her voice could change.

The woman in white replied, "Yes! She looks like she's enjoying it."

"Heh, those four women from the Western Regions took me a lot of effort to find. How could a lecherous man like him bear to leave them?"

The woman in white hesitated for a moment, then couldn't help but say, "But that boy obtained the Lotus Flower Mirror, so he must be quite knowledgeable about poisons. What if he sees through our plan?"

The Lady of the South Sea smiled: "Wang Lianhua is indeed an expert in poisons, but I didn't use any poison this time. How could that boy have seen through it?"

The woman in white was taken aback: "No poison?"

The woman from the South China Sea was quite pleased with herself and couldn't help but want to show off.

"Tell me, when a man is doing 'that', where does he have the most contact with a woman?"

The woman in white hesitated for a moment, then said, "Most men will kiss first, that is, on the lips, then on the chest, and finally... there."

"That's right! So, I first knocked out those four women from the Western Regions, and then applied three carefully prepared ointments to their lips, chests, and other areas. They had no idea, so they didn't give themselves away."

"Even that kid surnamed Gu wouldn't be able to detect it. Because all three ointments are colorless, odorless, and non-toxic."

The woman in white suddenly realized: "Disciple understands now. Although the three ointments are not poisonous, once they are mixed together..."

Speaking of which, it seems I've thought of something else.

Her face flushed, and she stammered, "But he might not... he might not kiss... there."

The Lady of the South Sea smiled and said, "It doesn't matter whether he kisses there or not. You don't understand the miraculous effects of my three medicines. After the ointments for the lips and chest are mixed, a catalyst is still needed."

"A medicinal guide?"

"As long as that kid does that with any of those four women from the Western Regions, the effects of the drug will slowly seep into his body and eventually mix together."

The woman in white's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, "Master's move is truly brilliant. No matter how cunning that kid is, he will fall into the trap without even realizing it."

"No, the medicinal guide I'm referring to isn't this. Even if the three ointments are mixed in his body, it will still be non-toxic and won't have any effect on that kid."

The woman in white was taken aback: "Then... what exactly is that medicinal ingredient?"

"You'll understand when the time comes."

Clearly, Lady Nanhai had a secret weapon she was keeping, one that she couldn't even reveal to her own disciples.

"Besides..." Lady Nanhai smiled and continued, "That boy has to deal with four women from the Western Regions. Even if I don't poison him, will he still have the strength to fight me?"

"Master is indeed brilliant!"

Gu Yu was unaware of these things.

With wine, meat, and four stunningly beautiful women from foreign lands in the room, he had no time to think about anything else.

Red smoke, green dew, and fragrant morning breeze; swallows dance and orioles sing as the spring day grows long.

Gu Yu was very busy that night!

After all, we cannot favor one over the other; we should be kind and treat everyone equally.

Even though his physical condition is now far superior to that of ordinary people, he is really finding it difficult to do much.

The four beauties from the Western Regions also looked languid, no longer having the energy to sing and dance as they had the night before.

"Young master, young master..."

After a while, a maid's soft voice called out from outside.

"Hmm~"

Gu Yu responded weakly.

"Please wash up, young master. My master has returned and is waiting for you in the front hall."

"Okay, come in."

A maidservant brought in a basin of water.

Upon seeing the scene inside the room, she couldn't help but blush slightly.

After washing up, the maid brought over some breakfast. After Gu Yu finished eating, she handed him mouthwash and a handkerchief to wipe his face. The service was impeccable.

"Young master, please!"

The maid led Gu Yu to the front hall.

"Young Master Gu, I am truly sorry about yesterday."

As soon as Gu Yu entered the front hall, Lady Nanhai stood up and said apologetically.

"Not at all..." Gu Yu smiled and cupped his hands in greeting. "I have long admired the name of Lady Nanhai, and it is my great honor to finally meet you today."

"Young Master Gu, please have a seat!"

Thank you!

Gu Yu sat down on the lower side, and the maid immediately served him a cup of tea.

"Huh, is this benzoin?"

Gu Yu took the tea and subconsciously glanced at the incense burning on the table.

Benzoin is a precious incense, mainly produced in the Persian region. It is rare and expensive.

Lady Nanhai nodded with a smile: "Indeed, it seems that Young Hero Gu is quite knowledgeable."

"You flatter me, Madam!"

After exchanging a few casual words, Lady Nanhai asked, "I heard that Young Hero Gu killed the Great Joyful Bodhisattva?"

"That's right! I know that she and Madam are both princesses of the Demonic Sect. Could it be that Madam has come down here to demand an explanation?"

"How could that be? I'm overjoyed!"

"Oh? You have a grudge against her?"

Lady of the South Sea nodded: "I suppose so. Back then, it was because of a conflict with her that I left the Demonic Sect and went to the South Sea."

"So that's how it is..."

At this point, Gu Yu suddenly frowned and subconsciously pressed his abdomen with one hand.

The woman from the South China Sea asked with concern, "Young hero, are you feeling unwell anywhere?"

"I think I ate something bad last night; my stomach is a little sore."

Upon hearing this, Lady Nanhai finally dropped her pretense and revealed a smug smile: "Let me tell you, you didn't have an upset stomach."

"Oh?"

"Do you know how much effort and money I spent to lure you in?"

Gu Yu's expression changed, and he angrily said, "Did you poison me?"

"Hehe, I know you've practiced the martial arts from the Lianhua Precious Mirror, otherwise you wouldn't have been able to kill the Great Joyful Bodhisattva. Wang Lianhua is skilled in using poison, so I suppose you've learned some of it as well."

Gu Yu said, "That's right, I checked all the food and drinks last night and confirmed that there was no poison."

The woman from the South China Sea looked smug and laughed, "The food and wine were indeed not poisoned, but you would never guess that I carefully prepared a special medicine and applied it to those four women from the Western Regions."

"They are all stunning beauties; you certainly won't want to miss a single inch of their skin..."

The Lady of the South Sea proudly explained the effects of the ointment she had prepared.

Gu Yu was speechless.

He truly hadn't expected that the Lady of the South Sea would be so skillful in her poisoning methods. It was bad enough that she poisoned the lips and chests of the four Western Region women, but she even...

Who can defend against that?

The Lady of the South Sea continued, "However, even if the three ointments are mixed, you still won't feel anything, and it won't have any effect on you. In this way, you won't be wary of me."

Gu Yu couldn't help but sneer, "That's right, I thought you were a bodhisattva, but I didn't expect you to be so vicious."

"Until you stepped into this room and smelled the benzoin..."

Gu Yu suddenly realized: "I understand now, benzoin was the trigger. I inhaled benzoin, which then triggered the poison in my body."

The Lady of the South Sea, with an air of complete control, smiled and said, "Smart! Now I have good news and bad news. Which do you want to hear first?"
