Chapter 254: Col Manor, Five-Level Poison Cultivator

Thirty miles away, even with a person in his hand, Zhao Ya arrived in just over two quarters of an hour.

As expected, in this valley hidden by the forest, there is a manor.

"Who is usually stationed here?" Zhao Ya asked.

Xiang Gui was dizzy from the bumps along the way, but facing Zhao Ya's question, he did not dare to hide anything and hurriedly said.

"Cong Bo specifically instructed that I am responsible for developing subordinates in the periphery, and the defense of this stronghold will be handed over to a man named Li De."

"Li De? Who is he and what is his strength?"

"He is much stronger than me, but I don't know what realm he is in. Although he is also the hall master, he has followed Cong Bo earlier than me and is considered a veteran of the Five Poison Sect."

"This person is usually not good at speaking, but he acts viciously and is very careful, so no one in the sect dares to offend him, and I rarely come into contact with him." Xiang Gui said.

"What exactly is arranged inside?"

Even though there is a huge difference in strength, Zhao Ya will not take it lightly.

A lion will use all its strength to fight a rabbit, not to mention that the Five Poison Sect is backed by the Beast Taming Sect. God knows if there are any special ambushes arranged inside.

Xiang Gui told everything in detail, and then Zhao Ya asked a few random questions. After confirming that he was not lying, he slapped him unconscious and threw him into the grass on the side of the road.

For now, Xiang Gui cannot be killed. It will not be too late to deal with him after this den is completely eradicated.

Zhao Ya performed the Spirit Turtle Hibernation Technique, and the overall presence quickly weakened until it was almost gone.

And then Zhao Ya quietly sneaked into the manor.

The defense in the manor was not strict.

At least that was the case for Zhao Ya.

The night patrol guards could not find Zhao Ya in hibernation at all.

So he came to the core of the manor very easily.

This is a courtyard, but the layout is very strange. There is a small building in the middle of the courtyard, which looks very abrupt.

Zhao Ya knew that this should be the Five Poison Building used by the Five Poison Sect to cultivate poisonous insects.

As the name of the Five Poison Sect suggests, its disciples basically use poison.

But the exotic insect incense used by Xiang Gui today is extremely precious. Only the hall master and other high-level members of the sect are qualified to use it. Ordinary disciples can only use ordinary poisons extracted from various poisonous insects.

This also caused a huge demand.

So in addition to developing downlines, the Five Poison Sect also has a very important job, which is to cultivate poisonous insects.

This Five Poison Building is used for this.

The guards here are also much stricter than those outside, but it is still not difficult for Zhao Ya.

With a light leap, Zhao Ya silently crossed the night sky and came to the roof of the Five Poison Building.

The whole process did not make any sound, and even the bells on the roof used for warning were not alarmed.

Then Zhao Ya turned to a corner of the courtyard where the light could not reach, leaned down, and clung to the wall like a gecko, moving silently with his powerful muscles.

Soon, Zhao Ya came to a lighted window and listened.

There was silence inside, but Zhao Ya could still infer that there were at least four people in the house just by the sound of breathing.

One of them had the longest breathing, and he should be a warrior who had mastered the skin polishing, and he should be Li De mentioned by Xiang Gui.

The breathing of the other three was much heavier, and their strength was about the third realm.

Zhao Ya had a bottom line in his mind.

If there were only four people with such strength, Zhao Ya could easily kill them in seconds.

Just as he was about to make his move, he heard someone say, "Master, Xiang Gui went to rob the escort of Yongshun Escort Agency, why hasn't he come back yet? Could something have happened?"

"Yes, the Lan family is not easy to mess with. Although Lan Tang is old, his grandson Lan Qingshan is quite powerful."

"Don't worry, Xiang Gui brought the exotic insect incense this time. No matter how powerful the grandfather and grandson of the Lan family are, they can't turn the tables." Someone said indifferently.

The voice was cold, and even if you just listened to it, it was as if you saw a poisonous snake hiding in the dark and choosing people to bite.

"So that's how it is. Then we are relieved."

"Yes, with the strange insect incense of the master, even if the grandfather and grandson of Lan Tang have the strength of the fifth realm, they will be caught if they are not careful."

"Where do you think Xuanhu Hall plans to send this hundred-year-old ginseng when it spends so much money and makes such a big scene this time?"

"Who cares? Anyway, it's ours if it falls into our hands."

The people were talking about it, and Zhao Ya listened carefully outside the window.

Because he heard a very useful piece of information.

It turned out that Xuanhu Hall was entrusted with the delivery of the dart this time.

Speaking of Xuanhu Hall, it is very famous.

It was originally a loose alliance of doctors in the folk, but with the chaos in the world, the status of doctors rose.

Finally, under the leadership of Sun Jingbo, a genius medical master, Xuanhu Hall was born and eventually became a huge medical organization.

It is reasonable that this hundred-year-old ginseng came from Xuanhu Hall.

I just don't know where it was sent to.

Zhao Ya was born as a bodyguard, so he naturally knew that this information was not very sensitive in normal times, but if the employer asked not to disclose it, then the escort agency with rules would never disclose it.

This was related to the reputation of an escort agency, and there was no room for any discount.

So Zhao Ya was very tactful and didn't ask the Lan family's grandfather and grandson before.

After listening for a while, I found that the people in the room could hardly provide any useful information.

Zhao Ya then stretched out his hand and quietly reached the corner of the window.

The weather is hot now, so for ventilation, the windows have been opened with a crack.

Zhao Ya held some medicinal powder in his hand, and soon followed this gap and floated into the house.

Then Zhao Ya counted silently in his heart.

one two three…….

When the count reached seventeen, a horrified shout was heard from the house.

"What's going on? Why am I feeling numb all over?"

"Me too!"

"No, someone poisoned me."

Amid the chaos, there was the sound of chairs being kicked and pulled. It was obvious that someone was trying to get up and run away.

Then there was the sound of someone falling to the ground, and then the room fell into a deathly silence.

Zhao Ya didn't rush in and waited outside for half a cup of tea. After making sure there was nothing unusual, he jumped lightly and entered the house through the window.

There were four people lying horizontally and vertically in the room, three of them were lying on the ground unable to move, and only one was sitting on a chair in the middle.

This person is a man about forty years old, with a hawk-nosed look.

According to Xiang Gui's description, Zhao Ya knew that this should be Li De who was responsible for guarding the manor.

However, at this time, Li De had also lost the ability to move. He could not even blink his eyelids and could only look at Zhao Ya with horror in his eyes.

Zhao Ya did not rush to move him, but kicked the three people on the ground first. After confirming that the three people were extremely poisoned, they would probably die of respiratory paralysis in a short time, and then smiled at Li De.

"Your name is Reed?"

Li De could not speak, he could only look at Zhao Ya with wide eyes.

But Zhao Ya still didn't take it lightly. He suddenly flicked his fingers and hit two stones in succession, heading straight for Li De's eyes.

Seeing that the pebbles were about to fly in front of him, Reed sighed suddenly.

"He's really cunning."

As he spoke, Li De suddenly waved his hand and shattered the two stones.

"Both each other." Zhao Ya was not surprised at all and said with a smile.

Li De looked at Zhao Ya and suddenly said: "I didn't expect that Zhao Ya, who is famous all over the city, is actually a master of poison."

"You actually know me too?" Zhao Ya said.

Is his reputation so great that even people in this remote mountain can recognize him at a glance?

"Haha, Shaoxia Zhao is now well-known, so we, the Five Immortals Sect, naturally have to inquire about it in advance. I have seen your portrait more than once, so I am not surprised to recognize you. But what I am curious about is, what do you think? I’m not poisoned?”

"Your performance is impeccable. You even pretended to have muscle paralysis, but you ignored one thing."

"Which point?" Reed asked.

But at this moment, Zhao Ya suddenly rushed out with his sword and struck Li De's neck with the sword.

"What a boy with no martial ethics."

Reed scolded, then lay back and jumped from the stool.

After dodging the sword, Li De reached out and pulled out his own weapon, a fine iron ruler over one meter long, and then he fought with Zhao Ya.

Zhao Ya was surprised to find that his previous guess was wrong.

This Li De is not a master of skin polishing at all, but a real five realms.

Why does such a person actually live in this small manor, even with people like Xiang Gui?

But Zhao Ya didn't know that he was surprised, but Li De was even more surprised than him.

Stationed at a place not too far away from Yandu City, he naturally heard Zhao Ya's name more than once.

But Li De scoffed at the rumors about Zhao Ya's glorious achievements, thinking that they were all rumors.

What kind of fantasy is this to defeat Kaimai in the Five Realms?

So Reed didn't believe a word of it.

But he didn't expect that after meeting Zhao Ya and taking action, Li De realized that the rumors were true.

Although they were both in the fifth realm, Zhao Ya was simply ridiculously strong. After just a few moves, he was forced to fend for himself and had no ability to fight back.

In desperation, Li De had no choice but to use his trump card and raised his hand to shoot out a cloud of smoke.

But he never expected that Zhao Ya wouldn't dodge at all, and even walked directly through the smoke, and then stabbed him again.

Really looking for death!

Although he was shocked, Li De's heart soon felt filled with ecstasy.

The smoke I created was carefully blended with the incense of insects and various poisons. Even a fifth-level warrior would have to take a sip without carrying it around.

As a result, this guy actually broke out of it without any fear of being contaminated with poisonous powder. It is true that a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers.

Therefore, Li De tried his best to dodge, planning to wait for Zhao Ya to be poisoned.

But a full minute passed. Not only did Zhao Ya show no signs of poisoning, but he became more courageous as he fought.

Reed simply couldn't accept this fact.

"Why aren't you afraid of poison?" he hissed.

"Isn't it the same for you?" Zhao Ya said coldly, while increasing the intensity of his attack.

In fact, Zhao Ya was also wondering, although the poison he prepared to paralyze the muscles and nerves had only been tested on the Half-step Five Realm, and had not been used to deal with the Five Realms seriously.

But it won’t have any impact at all.

But Li De behaved like a tiger, and it really didn't look like he was poisoned.

So Zhao Ya was also wondering what method Li De used to undo his poison.

Reed was already a little panicked at this time.

If his own trump cards didn't work on Zhao Ya, he would only become more and more passive if he continued to fight.

Thinking of this, Li De couldn't help but want to retreat and escape from here.

But at this moment, Zhao Ya's swordsmanship became more and more violent, and firmly blocked Li De's retreat, making it impossible for him to leave.

Even if it was for the secret of detoxification in his body, Zhao Ya would never let him go, not to mention that he was very likely to have the secret of the Beast Taming Sect, so it was even more impossible for him to leave.

The violent swordsmanship made Li De cry out in pain.

Although he struggled hard, he was not careful and the iron ruler in his hand was cut in half by Zhao Ya's sword, and he was defeated quickly.

Puff.

The sword flashed and directly cut off Li De's two tendons.

Li De fell to the ground, screamed in pain, and wanted to struggle, but then Zhao Ya slashed his sword twice and cut his tendons.

No matter how strong a warrior is, after his tendons are cut, he will be like a fish out of water, unable to make any waves.

Then Zhao Ya stepped on Li De's chest with one foot, and took away everything on his body with skillful movements and superb techniques.

There was one thing among them that Zhao Ya noticed was extraordinary as soon as he got it.

It was a purse, small and exquisite, but Zhao Ya didn't think that someone like Li De would carry useless things with him.

Sure enough, after opening it, there was a round bead inside, the whole body was clear yellow, and it didn't look strange at first glance, but if you look closely, you will find it.

There are many tiny holes on the bead, and it exudes a cool smell like mint.

Zhao Ya was very interested, picked it up and asked, "What is this?"

Li De kept silent, his eyes full of resentment.

"Haha, I can actually guess it even without you telling me. This should be a detoxifying bead."

"Is it filled with detoxifying powder? What is it made of?"

Li De sneered, "Do you think I will tell..."

Then he saw an incredible scene.

Zhao Ya rubbed the bead with his fingers, then put it to the tip of his nose and sniffed it carefully. This was not enough, and he even put it in his mouth to taste it.

Li De was simply stunned.

Is this guy so bold?

Although it is a detoxifying bead, isn't he afraid of being poisoned by tasting it casually like this?

How could he know that with the deepening of his cultivation, Zhao Ya's five internal organs' talents are becoming more and more powerful.

The liver's immunity to all poisons makes him not afraid of poisons in the world.

So tasting poison is just a routine operation for Zhao Ya.

"Lapis Lazuli, Xiwangsha, Turtle Back Fruit Seeds, and Nine Refined Red Red Wood, am I right?"

Li De couldn't believe his ears.

Just by taking a bite, he could tell the medicinal ingredients contained in it with a high degree of accuracy?

What kind of incredible ability is this?
