Chapter 110: Ambush
The sky was just beginning to brighten.
The servants in the manor gradually got up and started their busy day.
The master of the house was kind and benevolent, so they naturally had to work harder to live up to his kindness.
The weather today was exceptionally good, without the usual snow and cold wind.
A gentle breeze blew, not making people feel cold, but rather comfortable.
Faced with this rare good weather, the servants were in a good mood, occasionally laughing and carrying out their duties.
The Holy Maiden Bai Lian looked at this scene and smiled faintly, saying, "Laugh now, soon you will laugh even more happily."
As she finished speaking, a purple bag was opened, and a pile of powder poured out.
These powders were like dust, lifted by the morning breeze and spread towards the manor.
The Holy Maiden Bai Lian stood upwind and was not affected by the powder. She only put away the bag when there was no more powder falling from it.
This was her true gift.
The Nine Springs Laughter!
There was no need for people to ingest it. As long as it spread in the air, anyone who breathed in this air would be poisoned. It was similar to a gas bomb, and no matter how one tried to defend against it, it would be useless unless they didn't breathe this air.
And once one was poisoned by it, they would uncontrollably laugh hysterically until they died.
When they died, their faces would still be filled with a crazy smile, truly laughing to their death.
This terrifying poison was the nightmare of countless martial arts experts in the martial world. They could be sleeping peacefully at home, but if they accidentally took a breath, they would be poisoned by this terrible toxin.
Moreover,
Although the materials for this were the same, there were many different ways to prepare it. Except for the person who prepared it, no one else would have the antidote.
Because they wouldn't know which method the preparer used.
Even the slightest difference.
Would be unable to cure this poison.
Lin Fan's medical skills were indeed impressive. The gift she had sent a few days ago was easily resolved without causing any trouble.
But this Nine Springs Laughter was carefully prepared by Bai Lian, and it was a completely new technique. Only she had the antidote in her hands. She wanted to see how Lin Fan would solve it this time!
"I believe you will like this gift."
The Holy Maiden Bai Lian smiled again, her ethereal laughter sounding very pleasant, but it was a deadly rose.
White powder.
Easily dissolved in the breeze, if one didn't look closely, they wouldn't notice anything.
The outer courtyard, located downwind, was immediately enveloped. First, the gatekeeper, then the various courtyards inside, and even the kitchen were all covered.
"Achoo~"
Suddenly, a servant sneezed and muttered if someone was talking about them.
Then came the second and third.
Bai Lian, standing on the hillside upwind, saw this scene and the laughter in her eyes became more joyful.
This was the precursor to the poison taking effect.
Soon, it wouldn't be sneezing anymore, but laughter, uncontrollable laughter!
Until...
Laughing oneself to death!
The number of people sneezing is indeed increasing.
But after sneezing, they just continue with whatever they were doing.
As for the contagious laughter, it never appeared even after waiting for a long time. It's like a counterfeit expired product, with only a little bit of effectiveness remaining.
If it was bought.
The White Lotus Saint would definitely have doubts.
But these were personally prepared by her, and they were even prepared overnight last night.
Not to mention being expired, the entire poison powder is still fresh!
But why is there no effect?
"This is impossible!"
The White Lotus Saint couldn't laugh anymore, her eyes outside the mask were extremely cold.
She didn't believe that there was anything wrong with the poison she prepared, and it was impossible for it to have no effect.
There was nothing wrong with the poison.
Naturally, it was the person who was poisoned who had the problem.
Once again,
She was defeated once again!
Although she was resolved the previous time, she achieved the desired effect.
But this time,
Her confident grand gesture had become a joke!
This made her feel a hint of frustration, and her gaze at this moment was terrifyingly cold.
Since her debut,
She had never experienced such a thing!
But before she could make any other moves, a fiery figure rushed over.
"Die, demon woman!!"
The one who came was Dao Miaomiao. She was seen carrying a large cleaver, surrounded by a fiery red inner energy, like a phoenix descending, carrying an unstoppable force as she swung it towards the White Lotus Saint.
She didn't make empty threats. When she said she would bring a knife to kill the White Lotus Saint, she really meant it, even if she was pregnant.
"Seeking death!"
Seeing this scene, the White Lotus Saint immediately drew a soft sword.
In the previous invisible confrontation, she was completely defeated. Now, she was filled with anger, and Dao Miaomiao rushing over was like adding fuel to the fire.
With the support of the Great Return Pill, Dao Miaomiao's strength was close to the level of a top expert, but she still lacked a bit of refinement. At most, she could barely be considered top-level.
But what about the White Lotus Saint?
Although she wasn't good at direct confrontations, her strength had long surpassed the top level. Even if she faced the Four Supreme Masters, she could hold her own for a few moves, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to poison Old Man Dao.
Dao Miaomiao charged over.
This was indeed similar to seeking death.
But did Dao Miaomiao come for her?
Before the White Lotus Saint could make a move, another graceful figure rushed over.
"Die, demon woman!"
The same reprimand resounded again, but this time it came from Jian Ling's mouth.
Calling her a demon woman, the already angry White Lotus Saintess became even angrier.
The two sides quickly engaged in battle, with flashes of blades and swords constantly flickering, and the sound of clashing never ceased.
Reaching a top-notch level, they were already able to release their internal energy externally. The battle had completely surpassed the boundaries of ordinary people, with various knife and sword energies flying in the sky.
Plants within a radius of ten meters were all devastated, and even thick trees as thick as water buckets were easily broken. It was like a battle between immortals.
The White Lotus Saintess was truly strong, worthy of being able to contend with the Four Supreme Masters. Even though she wasn't good at direct combat, she was not someone that ordinary top-notch experts could resist.
If it was just one person.
Whether it was Jian Ling or Dao Miaomiao, they would quickly be defeated, even killed on the spot.
But they had two of them.
And judging from their movements, it was obvious that they had practiced combined attacks long ago. Under the combination of knives and swords, even though the White Lotus Saintess was stronger, she couldn't bring them down for a while.
On the edge of the battlefield.
Lin Fan had naturally arrived long ago.
Captain Su Erhu, the guard captain, had also ambushed himself in a favorable position, ready to shoot hidden arrows at any time.
The White Lotus Saintess thought her flawless poison attack was a joke under the surveillance of the mechanical birds hovering in the sky. She had long been targeted and observed every move.
The green pills distributed a few days ago were the Clear Spirit Pills that could detoxify all poisons. They were truly the holy medicine for detoxification. Not only were they effective when ingested, but their effects could also last for half a month.
During this half month.
Those who took this pill would be immune to all poisons, truly invulnerable to poisons.
Why didn't they take the initiative to attack.
Naturally, it was because of the opponent's mysterious body technique.
Dealing with such a cunning and hidden enemy, opportunities often only came once. If the first strike missed and alerted the opponent, it wouldn't be so easy to try again.
A thief for a thousand days.
Where would there be a thousand-day defense against thieves?
When the White Lotus Saintess came here, Lin Fan had no intention of letting her leave alive.
By deliberately underestimating the opponent, he wanted to provoke her while he himself was ready to strike and kill with one blow!
"Demon woman, you have nowhere to escape, obediently die!" Dao Miaomiao had the most fiery temper, and every time she attacked, she didn't hold back, wanting to knock the opponent down and fulfill her promise.
Although Jian Ling spoke less, her movements were not slow. Using the sharpness of the Semi-Divine Weapon, she wanted to cut off the opponent's weapon, thus removing her fangs.
But the White Lotus Saintess was very cunning. Seeing the depth of her opponent's weapon, she had no intention of engaging in direct combat. Instead, she used her abundant internal energy to unleash sword energies in the battle.
Swoosh!!
At this moment, Su Erhu also made his move.
After soaking for a full month, his physique had greatly improved. Coupled with the rare metals that Lin Fan had searched for during this time and used to forge a stronger bow and arrows for him, his killing power was now incomparable to before.
Even if a top-notch expert like the Thirteen Great Thieves came, he could still shoot them down.
Even a top-notch expert, in the case of being disturbed by the opponent, he could still pose a threat.
Clang!!
The White Lotus Saintess deflected the arrows with her sword, and Su Erhu's arrows couldn't harm her.
But the inertia carried by the arrows still slightly affected her figure, and her attacks in the short term were not as smooth as before, as if her rhythm had been interrupted.
Jian Ling and Dao Miaomiao were both geniuses. They naturally seized this opportunity and immediately erupted with even more fierce attacks, intending to severely injure the White Lotus Saintess with this opportunity.
However, the White Lotus Saintess was still the White Lotus Saintess, the most outstanding existence in the history of the White Lotus Sect.
Even in unfavorable circumstances, she still managed to withstand the outburst of the two women.
However, in this situation, it wouldn't be so easy for her to win.
If she were skilled in direct combat, she would definitely continue fighting, but she is not.
Compared to direct confrontation.
Poisoning is her strongest ability and her preferred method.
It is because of this that when she realized the battle couldn't be easily won, she had the intention to retreat.
With her strength,
Retreating wouldn't be difficult.
Feigning a strong attack to force the two women to defend, she swung a sword energy as a diversion, then swiftly retreated into the forest with an unpredictable speed.
With her elusive movements.
Once she entered the shadowy forest, even the top experts would have no way to deal with her.
But on the path that she had to pass downhill, countless crossbow arrows suddenly appeared and were fired simultaneously.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh—
Arrows were fired all at once!
Obviously, during these days, Lin Fan hadn't been completely inactive.
Through the all-seeing surveillance of the mechanical birds, the enemy's actions were too easy to predict.
Setting up a bunch of mechanical crossbows in places where she thought the enemy might appear wasn't difficult.
"Hmph! Petty tricks!"
The sudden ambush was indeed cunning, but the Holy Maiden Bai Lian had faced countless crises and unexpected situations to reach where she was today, so this wasn't anything to her.
Her profound inner strength erupted once again, and countless sword energies were unleashed, shattering the arrows in the sky.
Even if there were any stragglers,
When they approached her, they were deflected by her detached inner strength.
A top-notch expert.
Unless they were exhausted, it would be difficult for the crossbow arrows to cause any harm.
Regarding this,
The Holy Maiden Bai Lian wasn't surprised. She sneered and prepared to continue her retreat.
She suffered a loss this time.
But she wouldn't stumble again next time.
The Holy Maiden Bai Lian's expression was cold and indifferent, clearly harboring even more sinister schemes in her heart.
However, before she could take a few steps, when the shattered arrows filled the sky, a thick iron rod the size of a pillar came crashing down towards her head.
Whether it was the timing or the angle, it was perfectly executed, just as the opponent was exerting all their strength and hadn't recovered their breath.
Boom!
This enormous iron rod contained unimaginable force, and as it moved, it seemed to shatter the void, emitting a thunderous roar.
If it hit solidly,
Even an iron man would turn into an iron pancake!
"Damn it!"
Facing this scene, the calm expression on the Holy Maiden Bai Lian's face finally changed.
