Chapter 333: I'll Go With You

"Let me go over, you let me go over!"

Supporting his body, Chief Escort of Changwei Escort Agency Teng Pingsheng staggered toward the door, with several Constables beside him supporting him, fearing he might collapse to the ground if he lost his balance.

"Chief Escort Teng, please accept my condolences!" Supporting the staggering Teng Pingsheng, Prefect Fan Zongchen hurriedly held him back.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that this Chief Escort was on his last breath, rushing out on nothing but a single breath. If he couldn't catch his next breath, he would likely just drop dead right there.

"It was you who harmed the people of my Changwei Escort Agency!" Stepping forward to grab the youth by the collar, Teng Pingsheng's face was ferocious, filled with hatred.

His hands tried hard to choke the other's neck, but his hands, which could once crush gold and snap jade, could muster no strength; even gripping the other's neck was useless, and his deep-seated hatred had nowhere to be released.

He, Teng Pingsheng, was at least considered an expert in his own right, yet now he was ravaged by toxins and had become so frail that it seemed a slightly stronger gust of wind could carry him away.

"Why, where did my Changwei Escort Agency ever offend you? Over one hundred and twenty people, you didn't even spare the old and the children!"

"Your Changwei Escort Agency was the one to break faith first; what is wrong with me coming for revenge?" Easily breaking free from the hand gripping him, the youth looked coldly at the other, a triumphant smile still on his face.

"Do you know? I left you with one breath on purpose, just so you could taste the same flavor I did back then!"

"My father slaved away for Changwei Escort Agency for many years, only to be heartlessly abandoned by you, which led to my family being destroyed. I want you to taste the pain of a destroyed family too; I want you to pay the price for what you did back then!"

"Bullshit!" Teng Pingsheng's eyes glared in anger; the blood feud made him almost lose his sanity, and he roared out subconsciously.

"My Changwei Escort Agency has always prioritized faith and righteousness; in all these years, we have never abandoned any brother. If your father was a man of my Changwei Escort Agency, it would have been impossible for him to be abandoned!"

"But my father was abandoned by you! He bled for your escort agency, he risked his life for you, and in the end, after his arms were broken and he was of no use, you discarded him like worn-out shoes!"

"My father slaved for you for years, yet ended up in such a state; our family couldn't even afford to eat, and we had to survive on wild grass every day."

The past was vivid in his mind, causing the youth's chest to heave with anger. Having survived from the edge of Life and Death back then, he had only one thought in this life: revenge!

"Teng Pingsheng, although my father couldn't be counted as an expert, he at least had some Martial Arts, yet in the end, he had to kneel before others and beg bitterly just for a few steamed buns."

"If his dignity hadn't been trampled upon, why would he have chosen to take his family to commit suicide and poison the whole family?"

"If it weren't for you, how could my family be gone, and how could my life have become what it is now!"

Looking at what was before him as if insane, the youth's handsome face was indescribably evil and ferocious, like a cold-blooded poisonous snake baring its fangs.

"Do you know how I've lived these years? I have a special constitution and survived that night. But I was seen by a group of people and taken back."

"From then on, they began to constantly test poisons on me, using all kinds of toxins on me in turns. Tortured every night, every day was like ten thousand insects biting the heart; do you know that kind of pain!"

"It was hatred that kept me going. How could I die before taking revenge? How could I die before you all were dead!"

"Chief Escort Teng, do you still have any impression of my father, Qiu Cheng?"

Breaking free from the other's hand, the youth straightened his clothes and looked triumphantly at the Chief Escort of Changwei Escort Agency, who clearly wanted to bite him to death but could do nothing about him.

This arrogant appearance made the Constables detaining him almost draw their blades to give him a few slashes.

This was only because Lord Shen Yu was here; otherwise, the brothers would definitely let him know what the care of the Capture Gate was!

"Your father is Qiu Cheng?"

"What, has our Chief Escort Teng remembered? Are you feeling especially regretful now, regretting sweeping my father out the door back then!"

"I do regret it!" His chest heaved violently, anger seemingly filling his entire chest; at this moment, Teng Pingsheng's face was full of remorse.

"But not for sweeping your father out the door, but for being soft-hearted back then! Truly, like father, like son!"

"You think you know why your father was driven out back then? You think it was the escort agency that swept your father out the door? You are wrong!"

"It was your father who broke faith first, betraying the escort agency's route, causing Changwei Escort Agency to suffer heavy losses."

"Originally, according to the rules, he should have been punished with three stabs and six holes. But he begged me bitterly, saying there was a young child at home, and if he died, the whole family wouldn't survive; he said he was forced to do it. And he crippled his own Martial Arts and broke his own arms."

"I was soft-hearted at the time, which is why I let him go. I never thought that a moment of benevolence back then would lead to the current outcome!"

"If I had known today would come, I shouldn't have been soft-hearted back then; I should have just slaughtered this traitorous thing with one blade!"

"You lie!" Such an answer made the youth's face change slightly; he had imagined the other's reaction countless times, but never expected to receive a completely different answer.

Could it be that his father was the one in the wrong, not the other?

"Impossible, my father is not that kind of person!"

"Many people know about the events of that year; this matter can be verified with a check. It is no secret that Qiu Cheng was expelled from the agency for breaking faith."

"My Changwei Escort Agency never owed you anything; on the contrary, we let Qiu Cheng go back then and spared your whole family. But now you want to return kindness with enmity and harm my agency. I will kill you, I will kill you!"

"Quickly take Chief Escort Teng away!"

"Yes, my lord!" Beside him, one Constable on each side supported the vengeance-driven Teng Pingsheng, wanting to take him away.

And at this moment, the youth was retreating step by step, his heart in a mess; the pleasure of revenge had vanished at this moment.

"Impossible, this is impossible!"

"No, back away!" Just at this moment, Shen Yu suddenly stepped forward, separating the youth from the others.

In his eyes, the youth before him was clearly releasing poison gas continuously. As his emotions fluctuated, more and more toxins were released.

"Lord Shen, what is wrong?"

"It is poison. He is covered in poison right now; he looks no different from an ordinary person on the outside, but in reality, he has become a Poison Person covered in toxins!"

"He just said himself that he was used for poison testing; it seems the other party has achieved some success, so they released this Poison Person to test his power."

Speaking of this, Shen Yu looked with pity at the nearly crippled Teng Pingsheng beside him, "Your Changwei Escort Agency is very unfortunate to have become a place for others to test poison!"

"The lives of over one hundred and twenty people in my Changwei Escort Agency were actually just used by others to test poison?"

"Ah!" At the same time, several Constables nearby who had just grabbed the youth suddenly screamed. Their hands were covered in bloody flesh, but it was they themselves who were scratching.

At first, they only felt a bit itchy and thought it was because they hadn't bathed, so they didn't pay attention.

But now it was getting itchier and itchier, so itchy that their fingers had torn through their skin and flesh, yet they still couldn't stop this strange itching sensation that seemed to sprout from the bottom of their hearts.

The force of their scratching grew stronger and stronger, until now their fingers had torn off large patches of skin and flesh, their hands covered in blood.

"This, this..." Such a bizarre and bloody situation made the nearby Constables retreat one after another, fearing they would be contaminated by the toxins.

However, Shen Yu walked forward with large strides, seemingly not at all frightened by such poison, but rather filled with curiosity and a desire for knowledge.

"This kind of poison actually disperses with your emotional fluctuations, as if it were alive; it is truly peculiar."

"If I am not mistaken, once you are killed or injured, the toxins in your body will explode completely because they feel threatened. This kind of toxin is contagious and can even spread throughout the city at the fastest speed."

"Such a fierce poison, such a vicious intent. Ever since the Spirit Qi Surge, truly any Tom, Dick, or Harry dares to jump out!"

At the tip of Shen Yu's finger, a butterfly that seemed to be draped in seven-colored light had landed at some unknown moment, dancing gracefully and clearing away the toxins spreading from the youth's body.

The Seven-Colored Star Butterfly is known as the king of all poison kings. Wherever it passes, poisonous creatures retreat; this is the pressure that belongs to it as the born king of poisons.

After the Spirit Qi Surge, the Seven-Colored Star Butterfly also seems to have begun to undergo some changes, its own poison becoming increasingly terrifying.

Likewise, its ability to neutralize a hundred poisons also seems to be evolving in tandem. If one is afflicted with a severe poison, no matter how deeply it is hidden within the body, it can easily absorb it out. All that is required is a matter of time.

In fact, the stronger the toxin, the more of a great supplement it is for the butterfly, allowing it to evolve even faster.

The last time, the strange poison of the Hua Family satisfied it for a long time; now, Shen Yu can feel its excitement again. The more excited it is, the more it proves that this poison is fierce.

This kind of poison might not be much while hidden in a person's body, but if it were to erupt and become contagious, it would surely cause extremely terrifying consequences.
