The Rebirth of the Fierce Little Cute Girl

Chapter 366: Chapter 365: Suspicion

Seeing the old poison master right before her, Yiyi directly splashed the contents of the small porcelain bottle onto him.

The old poison master had been watching Yiyi closely since earlier, so when he saw her move, he swiftly dodged to the side.

Yiyi naturally had calculated all possible scenarios, so even though the old poison master dodged to the side, she wasn’t disappointed. Instead, she took out another small porcelain bottle from her chest with her other hand, bit open the cork, and again splashed it onto the old poison master.

The old poison master hadn’t expected Yiyi to have such a move, hence he was hit directly. His face changed drastically, and he quickly covered his mouth and nose.

Not long after, the old poison master started to feel something was wrong all over his body. He couldn’t tell if it was pain or itch, but it was definitely uncomfortable, even between his bones.

Feeling the discomfort spreading through him, the old poison master looked at Yiyi gloomily, ”What did you splash on me?”

Yiyi replied with a cheerful smile, ”Oh, nothing much, just a kind of poison that will make you wish you were dead. You’ll know soon enough.”

The old poison master didn’t ask anything more and directly took out a bottle from his chest, pouring out two medicine pills and swallowing them in one go.

”Hmph... Playing with poison in front of me is like showing off carpentry to a master. I want to see what other tricks you have up your sleeve later.”

This was his latest formulation of antidote pills, and he didn’t believe this nasty girl could concoct a poison stronger than Reincarnation. These antidote pills could even neutralize the toxicity of Reincarnation.

Sure enough, it didn’t take long for him to feel much better, and he stood up with a smile on his face.

Yiyi saw this and raised her eyebrows slightly.

This old poison master really was something else, but her poison, though not as domineering as Reincarnation, wasn’t bad either. It was a poison she fortuitously created when a Reincarnation concoction failed. Even if the old poison master temporarily neutralized the poison, he would eventually suffer.

Thinking this, Yiyi didn’t waste any more time and quickly ran to Gu Tingyu’s side.

The old poison master saw Yiyi completely ignoring him, his face darkened, and he was about to take out some poison, but found his hand trembling uncontrollably.

And this tremble was uncontrollable, intensifying from mild shaking to severe trembling. Now he understood clearly, the poison from earlier hadn’t been neutralized.

What poison was this?

Fear gripped the old poison master’s heart, and if this poison couldn’t be neutralized, he was worried he might end up like Leng Yu.

While the old poison master was worried, Yiyi was already helping Gu Tingyu to stand.

”How are you feeling now?”

Earlier, Yiyi had already given him a medicine pill, so Gu Tingyu felt quite good mentally. He smiled, nodded, and said, ”Don’t worry, I’m fine.”

Yiyi saw Gu Tingyu’s complexion indeed improved and felt relieved. She then turned her gaze towards Yun Chu.

Yun Chu lived up to Old Master Ding’s most reliable Hidden Guard reputation; he had already knocked down the guard named A Hai and was fighting with another guard.

Seeing this, Yiyi felt even more confident.

Meanwhile, the old poison master’s face was terribly dark. What was initially believed to be a surefire thing suddenly took a turn for the worse. Clearly, this little girl wasn’t simple, especially to have such effective subordinates.

What’s hateful is that he himself was poisoned, so even if the girl was no ordinary person, he would make sure she paid a painful price.

Thinking this, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in the old poison master’s eyes.

Once Yun Chu knocked down the other guard, a smile appeared at the corner of Yiyi’s mouth, ”Great, it seems Grandpa’s men are indeed reliable.”

Gu Tingyu heard this and only then realized that the skillful man was actually a Ding Family guard. Accordingly, they now had a chance to get out.

However, Gu Tingyu quickly noticed the old poison master was nowhere to be found. He looked at Yiyi with a frown and said, ”Yiyi, the old man seems to have disappeared.”

Yiyi heard this, looked around, and her expression changed slightly.

”Could it be that the old poison master escaped?”

Fearing the old poison master might cause further trouble, Yiyi saw Medicine Valley’s men nearly all knocked down. She hurriedly shouted to Yun Chu.

Yun Chu immediately approached and asked, ”Young Miss, do you have any instructions?”

”The old man from earlier has disappeared; quickly take people to find him. Make sure you locate him for me.”

Yun Chu naturally nodded, then promptly took people to search.

However, after searching all around, they couldn’t find anyone. Finally, he hurried back, ”Young Miss, couldn’t find the old man. Since we’re not too familiar with this place, if he truly intends to hide, it will be difficult for us to find him. We should quickly leave here and discuss further once we’ve returned.”

Yiyi heard this, and her brows furrowed.

As long as the old poison master wasn’t captured, she remained somewhat worried. And his gaze when he last left made her uneasy. She was genuinely afraid of unforeseen incidents. Thus, she agreed with Yun Chu’s suggestion and said, ”Alright, let’s hurry back first.”

However, before everyone could move, the whole valley began to shake.

”Not good...”

Yiyi suddenly recalled a very old tale she once heard about Medicine Valley.

Supposedly, there was a basement here that could control the entire Medicine Valley. Once its mechanism was activated, Medicine Valley might be destroyed in an instant. At that time, she had hoped for the old poison master to die, so after hearing these rumors, she wanted to find the basement to make Medicine Valley disappear entirely. But she never found it. Yet now, this commotion was indeed similar to what she heard back then.

Could it be that this situation is actually caused by the basement’s mechanism?

”Let’s get out of here quickly.” Yiyi shouted to the others, leading Gu Tingyu and rushing forward.

The others reacted but their actions couldn’t surpass the speed of the valley’s tremors. Watching Yiyi’s party about to fall into the crevice behind them, a group of people appeared ahead. The leader was none other than Fan Qianshu from Zilan Yushu, who waved his hand solemnly, and the people following him immediately went into action, all coming forward to assist.

Yiyi looked at Fan Qianshu with a face full of vigilance. She hadn’t forgotten the unusual relationship the person before her had with Zhang Li. Since Zhang Li could betray Gu Tingyu and them, Fan Qianshu was even more suspicious.

Seeing Yiyi’s expression, Fan Qianshu didn’t have time to explain much but said, ”Do you all intend to stay here? If I truly wanted to harm you, I could let you fend for yourselves. Why come here and stir up trouble.”

Upon hearing this, Yiyi’s doubts diminished somewhat, and given the current situation, she couldn’t afford to think much.

Gu Tingyu gave Fan Qianshu a deep look, and then nodded to Yiyi. Only then did they follow Fan Qianshu and others to leave.
