The Sect Master is famously pure and untainted!
Hearing Zhao Liguo's brazen words, Yang Bingyi's expression grew increasingly grim.
Zhao Liguo, this move brings you no benefit. If you give me the antidote now, I will pretend nothing ever happened.
Yang Bingyi was in a state of panic. She had prepared thoroughly for this retreat, but she never expected Zhao Liguo to betray her. Just moments ago, he had entered under the pretense of asking a question, and then she felt her energy dissipating all over her body. After she lost her ability to resist, Zhao Liguo forced a red pill into her mouth.
After taking the pill, a strange sensation began to rise from her abdomen.
"Yang Bingyi, do you think I am too naive or are you too clever?" Zhao Liguo said with a wicked smile.
"What exactly did you poison me with?"
"Haha, the Elder of the Taiping Sect sent me a special aphrodisiac pill. After all, I prefer women to be a bit more proactive," Zhao Liguo said, his eyes roaming over Yang Bingyi's beautiful figure as he licked his lips.
At this moment, he had already decided to imprison Yang Bingyi here. Soon, the people from the Taiping Sect would come, and the Yanzong would cease to exist. He would become the protector of the Taiping Sect, gaining not only half of Yanzong's benefits but also a special inheritance.
The Elder had promised him the method of Harmony, which would help him ascend and reach the first-grade realm—this was certain.
"What? You are collaborating with the Taiping Sect? Zhao Liguo, have you lost your mind?" Yang Bingyi exclaimed in shock.
"No, I haven't gone mad; I've just come to understand things clearly. I've worked diligently here for ten years while watching you prepare to enter the first-grade realm. And what about me? I'm still stuck at the fourth-grade! Why should that be? If my master had made me sect master back then, do you think I would be weaker than you?"
"It's all his favoritism! He said everyone else would submit to you. Hmph! With his support, of course they would!"
"But it doesn't matter; it’s proven that my master’s judgment was flawed because Yanzong will no longer exist! Hahaha!"
Yang Bingyi wanted to argue back but felt the effects of the poison intensifying within her body. The once-cold gaze was now filled with desire.
Damn it! The Elder's aphrodisiac pill is so potent!
Yang Bingyi cursed inwardly and tried to force the poison out while Zhao Liguo was speaking.
However, as luck would have it, the poison spread even faster.
"Yang Bingyi, stop struggling. Unless you have the cultivation of a first-grade master, you won't be able to break this poison," he taunted. "By the way, do you remember? Back in the day when I wanted to pursue you, you were so proud, saying you would never marry. Hahaha! Look at you now, so impressive. Here I am, just sitting here waiting for you to take the initiative. Hahahaha!"
Yang Bingyi gritted her teeth, her eyes blazing with fury as she spat out, "Shameless!"
Suddenly, she lowered her head, a glimmer of determination flashing in her eyes. As the leader of the Yanzong sect, she naturally had her trump cards. She was just waiting for Zhao Liguo to let his guard down.
Now!
Yang Bingyi's delicate face tightened as she summoned the last ounce of her strength and opened her mouth to expel a fine needle.
Whoosh!
This silver needle was made from thousand-year-old cold iron, a heavenly-grade treasure imbued with a powerful chill. It was her life-saving item that she had nurtured in her dantian for many years without using.
Even Zhao Liguo had no idea she possessed such a trump card.
Caught off guard, the silver needle pierced into his neck.
Pfft!
Instantly, warm blood gushed out.
Zhao Liguo's expression changed dramatically as he slapped his neck to temporarily stem the bleeding. "Damn it, how could you—"
His eyes blazed with fury as he glared at Yang Bingyi, realizing he had been hit.
At that moment, an extreme cold began to spread throughout his body; soon, frost was creeping over his skin.
Seizing this opportunity, Yang Bingyi struggled to move toward the exit.
But just as she took two steps, Zhao Liguo grabbed her hair. "Yang Bingyi, I will not let you go."
Meanwhile, the masked guard stationed at the entrance of the cave smiled to himself as he listened to the commotion inside.
Zhao Liguo had certainly learned a lot after receiving guidance from the Elder of Harmony. However, he hoped Zhao would understand that there was more to deal with than just the remaining disciples of Yanzong; there was also that Chen Anlin.
The timing of Chen Anlin's appearance was rather strange; he had completely wiped out the Zhang family. To avoid any lingering issues, he needed to take him down first thing in the morning.
Suddenly, a yellow flash pierced through his skull before he could react. He felt a dizzying sensation wash over him, and then everything went dark.
Looking at the corpse on the ground, Chen Anlin retracted the yellow flash and approached the entrance, listening to the sounds coming from inside. He had vaguely heard Yang Bingyi's voice from outside, but he never expected the effects of the aphrodisiac to be so potent.
It was well-known in the martial world that Yang Bingyi was renowned for her purity and was recognized as a celestial being untouched by worldly affairs. Yet here she was, under the influence of this drug.
But rest assured, Sect Leader, I won’t let anything happen to Yang Bingyi.
With that thought in mind, Chen Anlin swiftly concealed his presence and entered the cave.
As soon as he stepped inside, he heard the sound of tearing fabric.
"Yang Bingyi, you still dare to resist? Ha ha! Resist all you want; it only excites me more!" Zhao Liguo laughed maniacally.
Just as he was about to strip away Yang Bingyi's last line of defense, a yellow shadow darted past him from behind with a whoosh.
Before Zhao Liguo could react, a blade pierced through his back. He stumbled forward and fell to the ground, pinned down.
"Who is it?!" Zhao Liguo cursed angrily.
Chen Anlin had no time to respond; he wasted no words and unleashed several sword energies. In an instant, Zhao Liguo's head rolled away, lifeless.
Seeing this scene, Yang Bingyi relaxed her body completely, feeling utterly weak.
The danger had been eliminated!
Her gaze toward Chen Anlin was complex; she never imagined that the one who saved her in the end would be him.
"Sect Leader, are you alright?"
Chen Anlin walked over and glanced at Yang Bingyi, whose clothing was in tatters, unable to help but take a quick look.
At first glance, it was a magnificent sight. Rarely seen in the world, if this were the previous life, people would definitely think it was a product of human creation! However, this world lacked such technology, so it was purely natural.
Chen Anlin sighed inwardly. The leader of the Immortal Sect, who seemed so ethereal, was actually in such a state. Was the medicine from the Elder He Huan truly that powerful?
Suddenly, Yang Bingyi sat up straight, grabbing Chen Anlin's hand. Her body radiated heat, and her gaze on him was as if she wanted to swallow him whole.
"Leader, are you alright?" Chen Anlin stood directly in front of Yang Bingyi.
Yang Bingyi wanted to resist the poison's effects, but after narrowly escaping death moments ago, she seemed to relax all at once, feeling a strange urge to indulge herself. Moreover, Chen Anlin's dignified demeanor and handsome appearance made her less inclined to resist.
"W-What are you doing here?" Yang Bingyi instinctively pulled Chen Anlin down to sit beside her.
"Leader, I just noticed that everyone at the entrance has passed out. I dealt with a masked guard at the cave entrance, so you can rest easy. But what about the poison in you?" Chen Anlin asked with concern.
"This poison is a type of He Huan poison."
"Ah, that sounds troublesome," Chen Anlin leaned in closer.
At that moment, Yang Bingyi suddenly lunged at Chen Anlin.
"Ah! Senior, what are you doing? No!" Chen Anlin was startled. What was happening with Yang Bingyi? She was the leader of a sect and yet was acting this way towards a junior!
Although he could have resisted immediately, he didn’t want to hurt Yang Bingyi. After all, he understood that she was unable to control herself; it was simply the poison’s potency that had overwhelmed her.
In the end, Chen Anlin surrendered to the situation, deciding to treat it as an experience. After all, he found her quite appealing.
At that moment, Yang Bingyi's beautiful face was filled with desire.
Time passed without notice. When Yang Dou and Su Menghan arrived with a group of guards, Chen Anlin had already sent a message to Yang Dou beforehand, instructing them to wait outside. He was currently treating the leader's injuries; it was a critical moment and could not be interrupted. Otherwise, both he and Yang Bingyi would be put in an awkward position—or worse, they could both get hurt!
