Chapter 119: Battle against the Poison Lady (Part 1)
Lin Shen couldn't sense Cai Yi's location in the Shangshu Mansion and thought: Oh no, I guess I messed things up because of me. Maybe she went straight to find the Poison Lady.
After Lin Shen opened his eyes, Liu Jinyuan asked, "Where's Caiyi?"
Lin Shen said, "She is not in the Shangshu Mansion."
Lin Yueru said, "How could that be? Where is she?"
Lin Shen said, "I thought of the worst possibility, which is to go find the Poison Lady."
Zhao Linger asked, "Why did she go to see the Poison Lady?"
Lin Shen said with a serious face, "Because Poison Lady has always wanted to eat Caiyi to improve her cultivation, she probably wants to exchange her life for hers."
When they heard Lin Shen say 'life for life', they immediately understood what Cai Yi wanted to do. Liu Jinyuan shouted, "No... She is my wife... She can't die... Anos, I beg you."
Liu Jinyuan knelt down and said, "I beg you, save Caiyi. I will agree to any conditions."
Lin Shen said in a mocking tone, "Just now he was calling me a witch, and now he calls me his wife. He's really fickle."
Liu Jinyuan said, "I was wrong. It's all my fault. I let Caiyi down. I beg you, please find a way to save her!"
Lin Shen exchanged a Condensation Pill through the system and gave it to Liu Jinyuan, saying, "Take this pill. Although it cannot detoxify you, it can temporarily suppress the poison in your body.
Fortunately, no one except us knows Caiyi's true identity. Therefore, this matter must be resolved quickly to minimize the danger.
Let's go to the Black Spider Forest now, kill the Poison Lady, and save Caiyi."
When Liu Jinyuan heard this, he stood up and ran out, but was sucked back by Lin Shen using the Star Absorbing Technique. He said, "Why are you in such a hurry? Who wouldn't be suspicious if you ran out like this?"
Liu Jinyuan said, "What should we do then?"
Lin Yueru said, "Brother Liu, calm down. Anos knows space magic, teleport us out."
Liu Jinyuan nodded and took the Ninglu Pill given by Lin Shen. Lin Shen used the Yuexing technique to teleport several people away.
As Lin Shen had expected, Caiyi arrived at the Black Spider Forest. She walked forward until she came to an area covered in spider webs.
There was a woman with a charming figure in a gray dress waiting for her.
At this time, Lin Shen and his companions arrived at the Black Spider Forest. Lin Shen closed his eyes and sensed Cai Yi's location. Not long after, he found Cai Yi and Poison Lady together and shouted, "Not good!"
Liu Jinyuan asked, "What's wrong?"
Lin Shen said, "Cai Yi has found the Poison Lady. We have to hurry." So Lin Shen used the Leaping Technique again and rushed in with a few people.
The woman said, "You finally came to see me."
Caiyi said, "If it weren't for...it wasn't something..."
At this time, Lin Shen and his companions were teleported nearby. Liu Jinyuan was about to go up to save Caiyi, but was stopped by Lin Shen. Lin Shen said, "Why are you in such a hurry?"
The woman said, "Do you think your Hundred Flowers Immortal Brew can undo the soul-binding silk I've placed on him? At most, it can delay his death by a few days. I've already said that no one in the world can save him except me."
You expended so much mana to save him, but it was all in vain. Originally, your cultivation was four hundred years higher than mine, but now you have no power to deal with me."
Liu Jinyuan and Li Xiaoyao understood what Lin Shen said. Cai Yi said, "Poison Lady, I... please, save him."
Poison Lady said with disdain, "Beg? Haha... You'll have to beg me one day. I'm going to take that man's life. I was afraid of you before, but what can you do to me now?"
Cai Yi said, "I...I am willing to exchange my life for his. As long as you are willing to cure his poison, I...I will do whatever you want with me. If you want to eat me...that's fine too."
Poison Lady said, "Oh!? Is this man worthy of you doing this?"
Cai Yi said, "Only...as long as you promise me...to save him."
Poison Lady said, "Okay, then I'll grant your wish! That man saved you from me once, but in the end, you still have to come to me obediently."
After saying this, the Poison Lady transformed back into her original form: a large brown spider two meters tall. The Poison Lady said, "Without any effort, you can increase your cultivation by a thousand years! Go to hell!"
After saying that, the poisonous lady pounced on Caiyi. Caiyi also closed her eyes, waiting to be eaten by the poisonous spider.
At that moment, Lin Shen flicked his fingers, and a shield appeared in front of Caiyi. Poison Lady rammed into the shield and was deflected. Caiyi opened her eyes and found herself fine.
Poison Lady transformed back into human form, covered her forehead and shouted, "Who is it? Who ruined my good deeds!?"
Lin Shen teleported in front of Cai Yi and said, "It's me!"
Poison Lady said, "Who are you and why are you ruining my good deeds?!"
When Cai Yi saw her, she said, "Anos, why are you here?"
Lin Shen said, "If I hadn't come, you would have become her meal. It seems that you still chose your husband."
Cai Yi said, "My husband saved my life, I...I can't abandon him."
Lin Shen said, "At least this time you didn't call me slave or concubine all the time. I feel uncomfortable hearing such names. But have you ever thought about the fact that Liu Jinyuan is not around? What if she eats you and then refuses to admit it? You would have died in vain."
Poison Lady seemed to have been touched on a sore spot and shouted, "You...what are you talking about!?"
Cai Yi saw Du Niangzi's reaction and understood. She said, "So... So you had no intention of keeping your promise and had no intention of saving my husband from the beginning."
Poison Lady sneered and said, "So what? No one can detoxify him except me. He is a useless man anyway. The real thing is to get your thousand-year cultivation."
Caiyi said, "I...I'm going to fight you! If my husband really dies, I'm going to drag you down with him!"
After saying that, Caiyi gathered her spiritual power and shot a water ball towards Du Niangzi. Du Niang blocked Caiyi's water ball with a wave of her sleeve.
The Poison Lady waved her sleeves and fired a bomb, which hit Caiyi. Caiyi vomited blood and fell to the ground.
A pair of huge butterfly wings appeared on Caiyi's back, and her skirt turned into a purple bellyband. Liu Jinyuan, who was hiding in the dark, ran out and shouted, "Caiyi~!"
Caiyi looked in the direction of the voice and was stunned. Liu Jinyuan ran up to Caiyi and said, "Caiyi~Caiyi~How are you? Are you okay?"
Caiyi said, "Husband, why are you here?"
Liu Jinyuan picked up Caiyi and said, "Anos brought me here. I know everything. Caiyi, I'm sorry. I failed you. How could you be so stupid as to compromise your own cultivation for me? It's my fault."
Poison Lady sneered, "What a loving couple! But this love... comes a little too late. You've been poisoned, and you won't live for many days."
Caiyi also damaged her own cultivation by saving you, so she is no match for me at all."
Lin Shen said angrily, "Hey, hey, hey, have you forgotten me? I dared to bring him here because I was sure I could kill you."
The Poison Lady said, "You are looking for death!" and then a thunder bomb flew towards Lin Shen. Lin Shen slapped the thunder bomb away with a slap. The thunder bomb exploded in the air, scaring Liu Jinyuan and Cai Yi.
Lin Shen said, "I say, you guys, it's almost time to watch the show. It's time to show up."
Caiyi and Du Niangzi looked to the side and saw Li Xiaoyao, Zhao Linger, Lin Yueru, and Anu coming out. Caiyi said, "You...you guys?"
Lin Shen said, "This time, are you going to deal with that poisonous lady, or am I going to take care of her?"
