Chapter 550: Poisonous Scheme: Poisoning Feihuang's Family

The first continental war ended, and the entire continent returned to a state of calm once again.

A tripartite balance of power—that was the situation.

Everyone worried that if they fought one side to the death, they would be taken advantage of by the final party.

Thus, everyone hoped for the snipe and the clam to fight so the fisherman could reap the benefit; the first to have this thought was Tang San, but the first to take action was Nan Feihuang.

This left Tang San filled with unwillingness; he did not know how Nan Feihuang had learned of his secrets.

But regardless of how he knew, he would never let Nan Feihuang go.

A few days later, Tang San used the blood of Ci Xue to create the thing he wanted, and summoned Bai He.

"Sect Master, do you have any instructions for me?" Bai He asked.

"Grand-uncle, we are relatives; in private, you don't need to be so polite with me," Tang San laughed. "I have a request for you this time. You are the fastest person in the world; with the abilities of your Min Clan, sneaking into a certain place shouldn't be difficult, right?"

"That goes without saying. As long as it isn't a place guarded by a Title Douluo, I can come and go as I please," Bai He said confidently. In truth, even if it were a place guarded by a Title Douluo, he could still escape even if he couldn't win.

"Very good. Grand-uncle, I want you to make a trip to the Tianshuang Principality and the Hagendas Kingdom to help me poison a few people with this bottle of poison." Tang San handed the bottle in his hand to Bai He.

Bai He was startled. "The Hagendas Kingdom and the Tianshuang Principality? Xiao San, the people you want me to kill, could it be..."

Neither of these two countries had much strength, nor were there any people worth Tang San being so concerned about. If there were any, there were only two: Nan Feihuang's two older sisters.

"That's right. I want you to use this poison to kill Nan Feihuang's two sisters, as well as their husbands and children, all of them!" Tang San said coldly. "Nan Feihuang actually schemed against me, using the Spirit Empire to open fire on me; I must repay him tenfold."

The poison inside came from the Pufferfish Poison of Ci Xue.

Once, in order to help the Great Emperor Xue Ye detoxify, Nan Feihuang had come into contact with this type of poison. As long as he saw the corpses of his two sisters, he would immediately know what poison they had died from.

At that time, no matter how Nan Feihuang investigated, he would trace it back to Ci Xue. After all, in this world, besides Ci Xue, who else would use this kind of poison?

Although Nan Feihuang knew he had obtained the Asura God Inheritance, Nan Feihuang was, after all, one of the Slaughter Gods of Slaughter City, so it was normal that he might have sensed something because of that. However, he didn't believe it; could it be that Nan Feihuang even knew he was a transmigrator from the Tang Sect?

As long as Nan Feihuang did not know he was also an expert in poison, he would not be very likely to suspect him.

He would only think that the Spirit Hall had sent people to poison important figures in the Tianshuang Principality and the Hagendas Kingdom—one, as revenge for Nan Feihuang using them as a pawn, and two, to give these small countries that did not join the Spirit Empire a small warning, letting them know the consequences of resisting the Spirit Empire.

At that time, Nan Feihuang would inevitably be enraged, and a war between the two forces would be inevitable.

"Xiao San, isn't doing this a bit despicable?" Bai He hesitated. Disaster should not reach the family; if you can't beat someone, attacking their sisters—what kind of hero is that?

"Grand-uncle, in war, one does not tire of deceit. During wartime, are we still going to talk about benevolence and morality with the opponent?" Tang San said. "Don't forget, Gengxin City was slaughtered by the Spirit Empire. The entire Blacksmith Association, except for Lou Gao, was wiped out. This is all because Nan Feihuang leaked my information, which brought the Spirit Empire there. He must bear at least half of these blood debts."

"Fine. But Xiao San, don't hand this matter over to others in the Min Clan; let me do it alone." Bai He had no other choice. Since he had joined Tang San's Tang Sect, he naturally had to act according to the Sect Master's orders.

However, he did not want his clansmen to bear such sins, so he decided to act personally. "No, at least one more person is needed!" Tang San shook his head. "The Tianshuang Principality and the Hagendas Kingdom are far apart; you need time to travel back and forth."

"The nature of this poison and the poison Citun Douluo used to kill the Great Emperor Xue Ye are similar, but their effects are different. It is not a slow-acting poison, but one that works instantly. Once ingested, within half an incense stick of time, the internal organs will corrode and the victim will die."

"Once news of one side spreads, Nan Feihuang will immediately realize someone is moving against his family. He will inevitably go all out to protect the other side that hasn't been harmed yet. Therefore, both sides must act simultaneously."

"Sigh, this old man understands. Sect Master, I will arrange this matter. Please do not tell Chenxiang. This old man takes his leave!" Bai He nodded and retreated helplessly.

He understood that there was no room for turning back in this matter. Since he had boarded Tang San's ship, he could not get off. His final bottom line was Bai Chenxiang; he did not want Bai Chenxiang to get involved in this dark side.

At the same time, inside the Gulei Royal City.

Xun Yu looked at the war reports; he did not let a single detail slip by.

When he saw the news that Hu Liena had been assassinated on her way back and Citun Douluo had been severely injured, he immediately realized something.

"So that's how it is. No wonder I saw signs of an untimely death on the face of the King of Tianshuang back then," Xun Yu muttered. "It must be an attempt to frame someone. This is a good opportunity to use their own strategy against them, but..."

Although he had an idea in his heart, if he followed his plan, it would come at a certain price, and it was somewhat ruthless.

However, compared to what could be gained from completing the plan, these sacrifices were absolutely worth it.

After making up his mind, Xun Yu did not look for Nan Feihuang, but went directly to find Nan Tianchen.

Nan Tianchen was silent for a long time, but in the end, he chose to approve Xun Yu's plan. "Xun Yu, invite Mr. Yang Wudi and Mr. Dugu Bo over."

A few days later! The continent had only been calm for a few days when suddenly, another piece of news that shocked the continent spread out.

The King of the Tianshuang Principality and the royal family members of the Hagendas Kingdom had all been inexplicably poisoned to death in their respective royal palaces.

After investigation, what they had been poisoned with was Pufferfish Poison.

This caused everyone's suspicions to point directly toward the Spirit Empire.

"Bastards! How dare they frame my Spirit Empire? Who exactly is it?" Bibi Dong was furious. This matter had absolutely nothing to do with her. Why would she be bored enough to poison the people of these two countries? The Tianshuang Principality was a country on the edge of the continent, with a remote location, poor climate, and weak national strength. She didn't even put such a small country in her eyes; she didn't even have the thought of using tricks against them.

As for the Hagendas Kingdom, although they had not directly joined the Spirit Empire, there were already people within their royal family who had secretly leaned toward her.

She was only waiting to occupy the entire territory of the Balak Kingdom before repeating the same trick to occupy the Hagendas Kingdom.

But now, the royal family of the Hagendas Kingdom had been indiscriminately poisoned, and even her own people were dead. It would become even more troublesome for her to occupy this kingdom in the future. Why would she do such a self-defeating thing?

Did her intelligence seem that low? This time, she was completely wronged.
