Blood gushed out, and the deputy envoy Wu Lu slumped against the stone chair, his right hand gripping the wound on his left shoulder tightly.

In a short while, Qin Fu, who was ranked second in the "Kill" category, was smashed into a pulp, and even the deputy envoy of the secret treasury was forced to cut off his own arm.

Despite the bloody scene, the assassins from the Luo Wang organization felt little fear; instead, they began to feel excited.

It's a bit of a shame that we didn't get to see the woman with the great figure have her limbs broken.

But Wu Lu, the deputy envoy of the secret treasury, who was usually high and mighty, was now in such a sorry state, which excited them just as much.

A sickly flush appeared on some people's pale faces; this powerful force was exactly what they sought in the Net.

Just when everyone thought the matter was over, and some were even ready to leave, what happened next made all the assassins from the Luo Wang organization stop in their tracks.

Deputy Envoy Wu Lu slumped onto a stone chair, barely managing to stop most of the gushing blood with his internal energy.

He then struggled to his feet, picked up the severed arm from the ground, and just as he was about to leave, a detached voice called out to him.

"Wu Lu, have you forgotten something?"

I didn't come to the secret vault just to visit you.

Upon hearing this, Wu Lu nearly coughed up a mouthful of blood.

However, he also remembered that before the water supply was cut off, he had said that he came to the secret vault to exchange for some things.

In other words, coming to pick up the item is the other party's real business.

What I did before seemed like a trivial matter done casually.

What seemed like a trivial matter to the other party cost Qin Fu his life, and he also lost an arm.

Right now, he can't go to the Luo Wang's doctor to treat his injuries; he still has to accompany the other party here to choose some good items.

Although he used his internal energy to stop most of the bleeding, he couldn't completely stop it, and the intense pain would only intensify over time.

Thinking of this, a surge of anger rose within him, causing Wu Lu to pause in his breathing for a moment.

"The water supply is cut off. What do you want to replace it with?"

Wu Lu clenched his teeth and asked in a cold tone.

"Change to some poison."

Li Ji stood with his hands behind his back. His black robe was stained with some of Wu Lu's blood, but the bloodstains quickly disappeared as the moisture around him swirled.

Wu Lu gritted his teeth and shouted in a hoarse voice:

"Guards! Quickly fetch the poison from the storehouse!"

Two vault guards appeared in the darkness.

This is not the same group of secret vault guards who were originally prepared to capture Tian Yi.

After Li Ji appeared, the guards of the secret vault quickly disappeared.

Without the orders of the treasury master, they could not take action against a first-class Heavenly rank official.

Two guards of the secret vault, their faces shrouded in hoods, appeared. They bowed before Wu Lu to acknowledge his command, then turned and went into the vault, just as they were about to retrieve the item.

Li Ji's gaze swept over the two of them, and he suddenly said:

"Wait, I'm not comfortable with them handling it."

Then, he glanced indifferently at the deputy envoy, Wu Lu, who was convulsing in pain, and said, word by word:

"I would like the Vice Envoy to personally help me carry it."

I hope you can grant this small request.

Upon hearing this, Wu Lu nearly fainted and collapsed to the ground.

This is outrageous! This is outrageous!

They're trying to kill him!

He was already in so much pain that he had neither the mind nor the strength to help the other person choose something.

Moreover, this will inevitably aggravate the wound, causing more bleeding and greater pain.

Rather than be killed by the other party, he would rather just fall to the ground and pretend to faint.

He's already fallen to the ground; we can't just let him go get things without water.

Once this matter is over, he will definitely find the mastermind and ask him to stand up for him!

Even if the other party is of the highest rank, they cannot act so recklessly; cutting off the water supply will come at a price.

Just as Wu Lu was about to feign death and try to get away with it.

He suddenly noticed that a puddle of water on the ground had begun to churn.

Its appearance was clearly that of a human face!

And this face is exactly like Li Ji's.

Unlike Li Ji, this face now had red eyes, filled with icy killing intent, staring intently at Wu Lu.

Wu Lu was instantly terrified and broke out in a cold sweat.

This bizarre method was clearly a warning to him by cutting off the water supply.

Wu Lu had no choice but to temporarily suppress his ulterior motives, endure the excruciating pain, and walk into the secret vault behind him.

That human face was Li Ji's attempt to use the Water Element Illusion Body in another way.

The Water Element Illusion Body can detach from the body and manifest a complete form, requiring less than one-tenth, about half a percent, of his true energy.

The amount of Netherworld Qi required to condense a human face is pitifully small, yet the effect is quite remarkable.

After a while.

Wu Lu, trembling, took out several jade bottles from his bosom and placed them on the stone platform.

At his feet, drops of blood seeped out.

Clearly, this action made him very uncomfortable; cold sweat had soaked through the back of his clothes.

Li Ji stepped forward slowly, his gaze sweeping over the poisons on the stone platform. Each jade bottle was labeled with the name of the poison, all of which were commonly used by assassins from the Luo Wang organization.

Bone-rotting water: colorless but odorous, it corrodes bones and rots flesh upon entering the body, causing internal organs to rot within a day, and turning into a pile of putrid water after three days.

Breath-Sealing Powder: After inhalation or ingestion, it can cause suffocation and death shortly afterward. The duration of the attack depends on the amount inhaled, ranging from three to five hours to one or two days.

Bewitching Pigeon: Made from poisonous pigeons, it paralyzes the whole body after half an hour of ingestion and kills the person in less than an hour.

Li Ji casually picked up a jade bottle labeled "Bone-Corroding Water" and uncorked it.

A faint fishy smell wafted out.

The surrounding assassins from the Luo Wang organization all stopped in their tracks; almost no one left.

What exactly is this person trying to do?

After forcing a deputy envoy of the secret treasury to cut off his own arm, he was then made to retrieve the item himself.

After the item is retrieved, what will this person do next?

At this moment, Li Ji's every move in the stone hall captivated everyone's attention.

The surrounding assassins from the Luo Wang organization hoped this man would stay a little longer, so that the deputy envoy Wu Lu could bleed more.

They craved blood.

Like vultures circling in the sky, waiting for their prey to die and rot.

The deputy envoy, Wu Lu, hoped that the person in front of him would take the poison and leave as soon as possible, because every second he stayed was a great pain for him.

But what happened next left everyone speechless.

Li Ji brought the jade bottle closer and took a sniff.

Then, he tilted his head back and poured all the rotten bone water from the bottle down his throat.

It wasn't held in the mouth, but swallowed whole.

Li Ji's Adam's apple bobbed as the entire bottle of bone-rotting water was swallowed.

However, after drinking the poison that could turn a person into putrid liquid, Li Ji only frowned slightly.

It wasn't that he felt unwell.

But this poison has no smell at all.

He drank it like he had just drunk a bottle of water.

Not only did he feel no physical discomfort, but he also did not experience the bitterness that poison should have in his mouth.

The only change might be that the intense thirst in Li Ji's abdomen had slightly lessened.

Although the thirst was still intense, he did feel a slight change.

Li Ji picked up the second bottle of poison, which was labeled "Bewitching Dove".

At this moment, Li Ji felt his robes being slightly tugged behind him.

He turned around and found that it was Tian Yi who had pulled him by the hand.

Li Ji gave Tian Yi a reassuring look, then tilted his head back and drank the Bewitching Dove wine.

But this time he didn't stop. Li Ji immediately swept all the poison on the stone platform into his hand.

Then he swallowed it all at once.

Everyone present was stunned by what they saw.
