Enjoying the fruits of others' labor! How does a sect's holy son break through the defense

Looking at Zhao Yueqing sitting in the chair, Ma Yan bowed respectfully.

"What brings you here, Senior Brother?"

Zhao Yueqing gave a gentle smile in acknowledgment.

"Sit down first, and tell me slowly."

As he spoke, he released his spiritual pressure, forming a barrier that isolated sound and aura, and walked out of the room.

At this moment, Ma Yan could barely suppress the smile on his face.

I thought to myself, Brother Donkey is really something.

Look!

Even Zhao Yueqing, the son of the Grand Elder of the Inner Sect and a Jade Leaf level cultivator, treated him with great respect.

This was something I never even dared to imagine before.

"Thank you, senior brother."

Ma Yan chuckled and sat down to the side.

To his utter bewilderment, Zhao Yueqing actually poured him a glass of wine himself.

This made him even more flattered.

"Oh dear, no, no, you're making me feel so bad, Senior Brother!"

Zhao Yueqing insisted on pouring the wine with a smile on his face.

"Little Ma, as far as I know, your father's name is Ma Maipi, and he worked as a menial servant in the Cloud Sect for thirty years."

"Eight years ago, your father died in an accident, leaving you and your mother to depend on each other. Your mother suffered a lot to raise you, didn't she?"

Ma Yan didn't understand, but still smiled and said.

"Senior brother is right. My father's last wish was for me to make a name for myself in the Cloud Sect and take good care of my mother."

"So I swore a long time ago that I would risk my life to make something of myself in the sect, so that my mother could have a better life and not be bullied by anyone."

He actually did it.

Because of Lü Tu, he can now act with impunity in the outer sect.

Even those who had bullied him or his father in the past now respectfully address him as "Master Ma".

That was truly a moment of triumph.

Seeing Zhao Yueqing's signal, Ma Yan quickly drank the wine in his cup in one gulp.

"Good wine, thank you for the treat, Senior Brother."

"By the way, senior brother, what brings you here?"

Zhao Yueqing smiled and took out a small jade bottle and placed it on the table, along with a spatial ring.

"Nothing else."

"There are 50 spirit stones in this spatial ring. They're yours."

Ma Yan's eyes widened immediately.

50?

hiss~

You have to understand that a menial disciple only gets ten spirit stones a month. He couldn't earn that much in ten lifetimes.

This is absolutely a huge sum of money.

"Senior brother, this..."

Ma Yan was so excited he couldn't speak.

Look!

This is the prestige of Brother Donkey.

The eldest elder's son personally came to deliver the money to him.

"Then, senior brother, what's in this little jade bottle...?"

It must be a magic pill to enhance one's natural talent and physical constitution.

Absolutely!

Zhao Yueqing probably saw how powerful Brother Donkey was and wanted to give him some benefits in order to build a good relationship with him.

Just as Ma Yan was getting excited.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Yueqing smiled and said...

"Corrosive Vein Poison!"

"what?"

Ma Yan's heart skipped a beat, realizing something was wrong.

"Wh...what do you mean?"

The smile on Zhao Yueqing's face gradually faded.

"The Corrosive Vein Poison can destroy a person's meridians and dantian, causing them to lose all their cultivation. Even a Spirit King Realm cultivator will perish on the spot."

"I want you to... trick Lü Tu into drinking this poison!"

Upon hearing Zhao Yueqing's words, Ma Yan turned pale and was so frightened that he knelt on the ground, his body covered in cold sweat.

"No, no, no... No!"

"Brother Donkey has done me a great favor; I cannot do this, and the sect will not forgive me either."

Zhao Yueqing said with a smile.

"If you do it, the 50 is yours, and I can guarantee your safety afterwards."

As he spoke, he flipped his hand, and a long sword appeared in his hand, which he examined carefully.

"If you don't do it, I'll kill you and your mother...."

Zhao Yueqing's words sent a chill down Ma Yan's spine, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

Extreme fear made him kneel on the ground and kowtow repeatedly, begging for mercy.

"Senior brother, spare me! I...I really wouldn't dare, please spare me!"

"Besides, I didn't have a chance to trick him into drinking this poison. How about this, could you find someone else? I promise I won't tell anyone."

His priority now is to save his own life.

If I survive, I'll tell Lü Tu immediately.

Looking at Ma Yan kneeling on the ground and kowtowing repeatedly, Zhao Yueqing sneered.

"This Corrosive Vein Poison is colorless and odorless, making it difficult to detect and easy to deceive."

As he spoke, he glanced at the wine glass that Ma Yan had drunk from.

"Just like this glass of wine, didn't you drink it too?"

Ma Yan realized something was wrong and his face turned pale.

"Wh...what do you mean?"

Wow ~

But no sooner had he finished speaking than he vomited a mouthful of black blood.

And he felt as if all the bones in his body were being torn apart by thousands of insects, and he screamed and rolled on the ground in pain.

The excruciating pain soaked his clothes with sweat.

"Ouch...it hurts so much! Senior brother, have mercy!"

"I really can't do it. I can't betray Brother Donkey, no matter who else I betray. Why did you choose me?"

Despite being in excruciating pain and convulsing all over, Ma Yan forced himself to kneel before Zhao Yueqing and kowtow repeatedly.

"Senior brother, just kill me! Kill me and find someone else! I can't betray Brother Donkey!"

Zhao Yueqing glanced down at Ma Yan.

"Because you are Lü Tu's only friend in the Cloud Sect, and he only trusts you, the one who poisoned him... could only be you."

"It's easy for you to want to die, but what about your mother?"

Seeing Ma Yan's pupils suddenly contract, Zhao Yue pressed the sharp tip of his sword against his throat.

The voice was chillingly cold.

"The poison I gave you is called Corpse Dissolving Powder. The first time it takes effect, it will cause excruciating pain, which you have already experienced, but this pain will soon disappear."

"However, if you do not take the antidote within seven days, you will turn into a puddle of pus and leave no trace."

"If you don't agree, I guarantee your mother will die a worse death than you. She'll be subjected to endless humiliation, paraded naked through the streets, dismembered, and then sent to you in pieces."

Zhao Yueqing's words plunged Ma Yan into utter despair, and he sat limply on the ground.

Seeing Ma Yan's blank expression and lifeless eyes, Zhao Yueqing sheathed his longsword.

"How can even the best of friends compare to a mother who raised you with such hardship?"

"Anyway, I will definitely find a way to kill Lü Tu."

"Is it the choice to give you and your mother 50 yuan so that you and your mother can live a worry-free life for the rest of your days?"

"Or will you and your son be buried with Lü Tu?"

"You choose!"

He wouldn't be foolish enough to poison Lü Tu himself.

But it's okay!

This would allow him to find a more suitable scapegoat.

What Zhao Yueqing didn't know was that he was also Li Peng's scapegoat.

A long silence followed!

Ma Yan, who had been looking down, suddenly spoke in a low, hoarse voice.

"I'll do it!"

"I hope my senior brother will keep his word."

That's all!

He grabbed the small jade bottle and the spatial ring containing 50 coins from the table, and walked out without looking back.

A sinister smile crept across Zhao Yueqing's lips.

Lü Tu?

hum~

"Only those who survive are true geniuses."

......

"Sister Yunshu, does the sect have any eighth-grade metal-attribute spiritual materials?"

"Huh? Eighth rank?"

Lu Tu's question left Gu Yunshu somewhat bewildered.

"Eighth-grade spiritual materials are extremely expensive, and the sect really can't produce them in a short time."

"Although Yehua Prefecture is quite large, it doesn't actually rank among the top nine prefectures of the Immortal Martial Empire."

"Located on the border of the empire, this place is relatively scarce in resources compared to the more powerful states. Eighth-grade spiritual materials are practically priceless."

As she spoke, a hint of curiosity flickered in Gu Yunshu's eyes.

"By the way, Lü Tu, you're a wind-attribute martial artist, what do you need metal-attribute spiritual materials for?"

Lu Tu laughed.

"That would be extremely useful. Could the sect help me obtain it? As long as it's of the eighth-order metal element, the type doesn't matter."

Lu Tu wanted the eighth-grade metal-attribute spiritual material, naturally to prepare for Chu Nan's tribulation.

If Luan Yang helps Ye Linxiao overcome a life-threatening crisis, he can bind himself to Chu Nan.

If we help Chu Nan fully awaken his Xuanjin Spirit Body, we can then bind him to the next protagonist.

The more protagonists he binds to, the stronger he becomes.

This is important business and cannot be delayed.
