Chapter 39.1 : A Valiant Woman
Ever since he was "poisoned", it had been many years since Lou Jun Yao had come back to these lands, causing many people to think that the Lord of the Dark Legion had fallen into decline. However, the moment he returned, he came back so explosively it rocked the entire Cloud Heaven.
The disciples of the Dark Legion that had scattered and dispersed to various corners of Cloud Heaven had immediately felt the summon in their souls the moment their king returned, with every single one of them surging in a beeline towards the call.
It was a magnificent and grand sight.
Having barely scraped and cowered through, and living out such a miserable existence, their patience was finally being rewarded. Their peerlessly powerful king had come back and no one would dare bully them again!
Any members of the Hunter's Guild they encountered along the way were all cut down and slaughtered without exception.
It was as if the people of the Dark Legion had suddenly been boosted by having taken some kind of divine elixir, their cultivation increased more than a little, that had the members of the Hunter's Guild frightened into fleeing from them. Several of the Hunter's Guild's established bases were quickly overrun, where their members crawled and scraped their way out from their lairs in escape.
[Damn it! Those people from the Dark Legion have absolutely gone berserk!]
With all the earth shattering changes happening everywhere outside, the Dark Legion's main headquarters was unbelievably peaceful. Besides the unrestrainable excitement all the dark robed men were feeling, everything else could be considered to be rather harmonious.
"Darn it! Why hasn't it woken up! ?" Mei Ji's enchanting face did not show her usual teasing smile, but had an expression of pain and rage. "That damned Hunter's Guild, this woman here will definitely trash up your nest one day!"
A tall man was lying on the bed, his face outstandingly good looking, but his eyes were tightly shut, his lips a pale white, looking rather lifeless.
Having never seen him looking so weak and frail, Mei Ji was so filled with rage she was about to turn around and leave.
"Hey, where are you going?" Bai Zhi Yan was quick enough to stop her. "Haven't I already told you? His body is rather unique, and his recovery will be a little slow. Moreover, his immunity against poison is rather weak, and he was given so many kinds of strange and unknown poisons….."
"That damned stinking coward!" Mei Ji smashed a fist into the wall, leaving a deep hole in it.
Bai Zhi Yan gulped, shocked by the sudden ferocious action of Mei Ji.
[When will this violent woman learn to be a little more gentle?]
[What a waste of such a great looking woman on the outside…..]
The stinking coward she was referring to was the boss of the Hunter's Guild himself, Zhuge Xiong.
That man was also highly skilled in the art of healing but he was more adept in poison. He had not been favoured in the Dark Legion before because he was a man eager to claim credit, selfish and mercenary, and had a venomous heart.
If someone were to offend him, he would inflict the most torturous poison upon that person, till that person would plead for death only to be denied, and suffer all kinds of heinous torment before he would die.
Even men from within the Dark Legion had not been spared from his insidious plots.
Hence, no one was willing to have any dealings with him, as they didn't know when the day would come that they would find themselves to have fallen under his strange and eccentric poisons, not even knowing what had killed them.
He could even be completely absolved of all responsibility with the ice and fire Ying Yang grub in Lou Jun Yao's body.
There were definitely very deep seated grievances between Zhuge Xiong and the people of the Dark Legion.
But at present…..
Bai Zhi Yan patted Mei Ji reassuringly on her shoulder and said: "Rest assured. Little Monster has always been such a Heaven defying being. He will surely be fine this time."
Mei Ji glared at him fiercely. "You quack healer! Don't make excuses for your lack in skill! Didn't the Lord also fall under that stinking coward's sneaky plot as well? And what is the result?"
Bai Zhi Yan was a little embarrassed and he went on to cough a few times awkwardly. "I am indeed….. erm, rather lacking in skill. But the Lord has now fully recovered you know? And….."
His voice trailed off. Bai Zhi Yan seemed to suddenly recall something and he pulled out a small exquisite looking box from his sleeve. When he opened it, two beautiful and perfectly rounded pills, one green and the other red, sat within, sparkling with a clear and bright lustre.
