"It seems that the Poison Hall is going all out, as expected of the demonic poison, indeed decisive." Tang Xiao stood in a relatively safe position, arms crossed, a smile on his face.
He closed one eye and aimed the small crossbow in his hand at the person in the distance, then hooked it with his finger. The crossbow only vibrated slightly. There was no sound, nor did he see the concealed weapon fly out. However, a person twenty steps away had fallen without any warning. "Satisfied," he replied with a smile. He then turned to look at Tang Xiao and spoke. "It's a pity you gave away the magic poison."
Tang Xiao smirked. "That won't stop me from admiring him." It seems like the power of your Poison Bee Crossbow has increased a lot, and that's not just because of the venom, right? "
He raised his eyebrows and said, "Of course, I changed the design. The range was reduced from 50 steps to about 30 steps, but the needles inside had increased by two and the firing rate was also increased by a lot."
"Two more?" Tang Xiao was surprised. "So you can send it six times now?" "Are you sure the crossbows can be kept steady?"
Don't cry and throw the crossbow directly at him. "Try it? Feel the improvement? There are four more inside that I can use all of them, so there's no need to keep them. "
Tang Xiao Yu reached out his hand to catch it. He looked at it for a moment, then took a glance at the distance. "How can you trust me?" The poison on it is pretty strong, aren't you afraid that I'll shoot you with a needle? "
Don't cry and laugh, "Of course I trust you. In the eyes of others, you seem to have lost your mind, but I know you very well. You can't cut off your own arm. "
Tang Xiao Yu raised his hand and pressed three times. The first two were shot in the nape of the neck, and the last one was hit in the back of the waist. He staggered a few steps and fell to the ground. As Mo Caihe had said, within thirty steps, the range would be reduced, and the force at thirty steps would be reduced. The first two were instantly shot in the nape of the neck, and more than half of the needles went in. The third person's skin had only been punctured by the poisonous needle, and the speed of the poison had clearly decreased.
Tang Xiao was amazed at the small crossbow. "It's amazing. It's only twenty-five paces away, but it's enough for a close-combat weapon like that."
Don't cry and smile: "At least I worked hard on the hidden mechanism. This crossbow counts as the result of my hard work for the past three years."
Tang Xiao couldn't bear to let go of the crossbow. "Three years is not a long time. It's definitely worth it." For people like you and me who are resistant to poisons and do not have to worry about being accidentally hurt, this is simply a defensive tool. "
Mo Yu could not help but laugh, "How rare, to have you praise me like that is something to be fearful of. Alright, stop looking. This is for you. There are only these two finished products for now. "Here, there are ten of these poisonous needles. You can make it yourself if you want to use the needles in the future."
Tang Xiao Yu took the tube from Mo Yu. He opened the lid and took out a "crossbow needle." The reason why he called this thing a "crossbow needle" was entirely because of this crossbow like small hidden weapon. He didn't want to cry so much and simply called it a matching hidden weapon. The two inch long needle was pitch black, and it had a sweet smell unique to snake venom. A needle as thin as a cow's hair could easily pierce something twenty steps away.
Don't cry watching him empty-handed as he reached for the needle. He couldn't help but exclaim, "Look at you, your Jade Muscle Technique is at least at the sixth layer. Adding on your Zhuyan Gu Poison, it would not be an exaggeration to say that you're immune to poisons. "
Tang Xiao smirked coldly, his eyes tinged with mockery. "The poison has already consumed more than half of my body. Naturally I'm no longer afraid of it." Only someone like you who has no poison on you would be afraid of poison. "
Don't cry and shrug, and make an indifferent gesture, "You live off the Gu, so it's inevitable that you get infected by some poison. Like me, it's normal to get my arms and legs cut off. I'm playing with traps, but I'm afraid of missing an arm. How can you not be afraid of poison? "
Tang Xiao smiled foolishly as he returned to the crossbow in his hand. He wasn't going to pursue the topic any further.
Mo Yu thought for a while before replying, "I don't have much free time these days. I'll send you a copy of the blueprint after I settle the Puppet Palace's matters. It wouldn't be too late for you to take a look at it later."
Tang Xiao was taken aback. He lifted his head and stared at Lan Jue. "No way." Giving it to me? "There's even a blueprint?" It was true that he liked this item, but he had been immersed in using hidden mechanisms and weapons for many years, so he was very clear on the fact that he should not ask for blueprints. One had to know that every blueprint was the result of the arcane master's painstaking efforts. Even the most common blueprints had been hidden away, so how could such a high-grade drawing of a crossbow be possible?
No matter how wild and unruly a person became later, he always carried a shackle deep down in his bones. Maybe some people can get rid of that shackle, but most people choose to keep it to prove their past.
The shackles restraining Tang Xiao was probably the same as when he was in the Tang Sect for the last ten years. Therefore, even if it was a gift from Weeping, he still showed some hesitation.
Mo Yu blinked her eyes, "Just now, your eyes made it seem like you wanted to kill me and take the blueprint away from me. I'm timid, so it's better if I hand over the blueprint and save my life."
Tang Xiao foolishly shot him a glance, then shook his head. "Impossible."
Don't cry and laugh, "Of course I know it's impossible, but don't be so serious. Besides, with your abilities, you'll definitely take the Poison Bee Crossbow down when you get back. I just made these two crossbows, but I didn't have the time to set them on the self-destruct device. You'll see them when you open them. If I give you the blueprints, it will save you a lot of trouble. I am not an expert in poison. If not for the fact that you are a poison master, I would have been unable to match up to you in terms of might. If you give me the formula for the venom, and I give you the blueprints for it, it won't be a loss. "
Tang Xiao looked at him in disbelief. "Not at all?" You, as the young master of a palace, is about to face the master of the Puppet Palace. "I don't feel like the recipe I gave you was worth a blueprint at all."
Don't cry and spread out your hands, "That's what I think, believe it or not."
Tang Xiao's mouth twitched in disdain. "There's no need to be so courteous. It's either a thief or a traitor." "Tell me, what plans do you have?"
Don't cry for a moment, then laughed: "Alright, then I won't be polite. As for me, I want to rope you in. "
"You want to win me over?" Tang Xiao asked. It sounds like a reason, but I don't think I'm even worth the price of this drawing. "
Don't cry and say, "You are my biggest hope right now, so it's not worth it? "You're being modest. This is not good."
Tang Xiao's eyes rolled. "Don't cry. There's no point trying to keep me in suspense." You need my help, but I need your protection as well. We can use each other and get what we want. "If you want to win me over, that's impossible. Just give up and give up as soon as possible."
Don't cry bitterly and said, "Should I say that talking to you is easier, or is it tiring? Don't worry, I don't plan on roping you in, and I don't have that much guts either. Let's put it this way, I want to rope in that disciple of yours. "
"Disciple?" Tang Xiao's brows furrowed. He looked at Mo Xiao in confusion. "You're not talking about Zhao Qingyan, are you?"
Mo Yu said with a wail and smile, "Yes, that's right, the young prince that was lying at your place."
"Why did you rope him in?" Tang Xiao asked. Are you crazy? "
Don't cry as you understand what he means, "he quickly said," Don't misunderstand, I'm not planning to have any interactions with the imperial government. I just want to find out who this young master is through him. Compared to Feng Yunxuan and the Poison Wine Hall, I think it would be easier to get an answer from the young prince. " Tang Xiao and the others looked at each other in confusion. "What's wrong?" Did I say anything wrong? "
"Do you think Zhao Qingyan has a soft mouth?" Tang Xiao asked. You even thought of asking him about Young Noble Qing Yi, do you think that I wouldn't think of it? "
Mo Cry asked with interest, "What's the result?"
Tang Xiao couldn't help but sigh. "The result?" As a result, he said to me, 'Your mother Gu is not a threat to all those who have been hit by Zhu Yan.' I lost control of my inner force and knocked him unconscious. "
Mo Cry could not help but laugh, "He really has guts."
Tang Xiao shrugged his shoulders. "He's just like a weak and invulnerable rock. I love him and I hate him."
Don't cry mischievously laugh: "Love?"
Tang Xiao and the others glared at him. "Love of the heart of talent!" You think it's that easy for me to find a suitable disciple? "
Mo Caihe was just joking, she didn't argue with him. She looked into the distance and raised her chin, "Your magic poison is obviously not doing well. Your complexion is turning green."
Tang Xiao's eyes followed his own. "I can't see him at all."
Mo Yu chuckled, "It seems that you are really worried about him."
Tang Xiao was a rare moment of silence. "We went through life and death together, after all. I'm sure there's something to worry about."
Don't cry indifferently: "Then why didn't you give him away?"
A cold light flashed in Tang Xiao's eyes. Before Mo Mo could see it, it was already gone. "Worry is worry. Giving it away is giving it away." "Since they are already a burden to me, I will just throw them away."
Crying suddenly sighed: "Although I am not worried about the outcome of this battle, but... I think the days to come will be a bit more worrisome. "
Tang Xiao foolishly smirked. "Isn't the young master's management flawed? That gives you a chance to sneak in." Is this a good thing? "
Don't cry turned to look at him deeply: "What if I say I don't dare?"
"You don't dare?" Tang Xiao looked at the earnest expression on Mozzie's face. "Because of what?"
Don't cry and turn around and quietly watch the fight in the distance. "I'm not like you, you have ambition and the courage to gamble everything you have, and you don't have to be afraid to drag anyone down by yourself — but I'm different. My only hope is to be able to change the surname of my Puppet Palace to Mo. In this way, I would be able to face my father and face my brothers with mockery in the future. What I saw was Young Master Qing Yi's huge mistake this time, and also saw the loyalty of the Poison Hall. "
As for the Hall of Poison, I only know about the twenty or so top assassins who entered the Puppet Palace with you, and the twenty shadow guards who have followed father for many years. None of them knew how many of them had survived the great disaster twelve years ago. But these were the people who formed the rudimentary form of the Hall of Poison, there was no doubt about it. From the time you completely lost contact with the Demon Poisonous Water, to when the Poison Hall appeared out of thin air five years ago, it was actually less than four years ago. In a short span of four years, Demon Poisonfeather was able to appear in the martial world along with such a powerful assassination organization. Moreover, the seven halls of the Poison Hall were connected, regardless of the location of the division, the handover of tasks, or the strength of the killers, there was nothing to be picky about. Whether it's Feng Yunxuan or the Poison Hall, these are forces that the young master has secretly nurtured.
He narrowed his eyes, "Then let me ask, what kind of ability and courage do you have to gather such forces and support them when the martial arts world is in turmoil and people are panicking?"
"Young master Qing Yi is indeed concealing his strength. He is indeed concealing more of his strength." But we have long known that the Poison Hall, Feng Yunxuan, and the Netherworld Valley, which protected the people of the martial arts world from the 'dead', had been able to live in the martial arts world because of those people who fled and were unable to protect themselves twelve years ago, and those forces which had broken apart because of that. "
Tang Xiao was silent as he looked at the man's burning gaze.
Mo Ye shook his head with a wry smile, "After this matter is over, everyone will understand that the reason why Young Master Qing Yi was successful was because he had seized the opportunity brought by the disaster that happened only once in a hundred years. I believe that there were many people who understood what was going on. Then, who dared to take the risk? "
He looked up at the night sky. "People who cannot be threatened by death, people who cannot be moved by money, are the most terrifying because their loyalty will not be easily changed. Young people tend to be impulsive and adore fame. Nine years ago, Young Master Qing Yi wouldn't have been that old. I thought I was strong enough and patient enough, but I knew I couldn't take four years or more to gamble on that little success. No matter if 'Young Master Qing Yi' is a person or a force, I am not willing to be his enemy. Compared to taking risks, I would rather lower myself to guard the Puppet Palace well. If the azure-robed young master is able to make the Puppet Palace cover their nest, I wouldn't dare to gamble on whether or not there's a perfect egg. "
Tang Xiao was also looking up at the dark sky. "Maybe you're right," he said softly.
