Chapter 865: Chapter 227 The Death of Yelu_4

The Han slave kowtowed, begging for mercy, but Ahetai didn’t care at all, and directly told the Mulan Guards beside him, ”Open his mouth.”

Upon hearing this, two Mulan Guards immediately pried open the slave’s mouth.

”Ah... ah...”

The slave screamed in despair, but Ahetai ignored him and directly stuffed the highly toxic pufferfish gland into his mouth.

After consuming the gland, the man began convulsing all over, foaming at the mouth, his eyes rolling back.

It was apparent he was deeply poisoned.

Ahetai frowned and said, ”Such a potent pufferfish toxin.”

Wu the Swift Blade saw this and said, ”Lord Ahetai, quickly give him the antidote, he can still be saved.”

Ahetai replied, ”No rush.”

”Any later and it’ll be too late.”

Ahetai replied, ”No rush.”

Meanwhile, the slave kicked his legs a couple of times, bleeding from his seven orifices, and died right there on the spot.

”Lord Commander, he’s dead.”

Ahetai said, ”Very good, take him away, take him away.”

Saying this, Ahetai looked at Wu the Swift Blade and said, ”This pufferfish is truly poisonous, can your antidote save someone?”

Wu the Swift Blade was shocked by Ahetai’s cold-bloodedness; they could clearly save him, but he chose not to, truly a heartless act!

And this scene, witnessed by these big figures present, elicited no reaction from them, as if it was expected.

Don’t be fooled by their usual genteel demeanor in front of Chen Jie, including Yelu who maintained at least a basic respect.

It’s because Chen Jie is the Fishing Guild Leader and a Holding Core Realm expert, while their cold-bloodedness towards ordinary citizens is outrageous.

If one were to make a deep analogy, it could be represented in comic form — these Mianshui elites are lions, wolves, and the citizens are just lambs.

In the eyes of lions and wolves, the citizens are merely their food, bloody food.

They feast on bloody mutton at the table, while the lambs below still have to work for them and earn money, it’s this cruel.

So when a Han slave dies, the Mulan people don’t care, and neither do the seated Han people.

Ahetai glanced at the dumbfounded Fast Hand Wu and said, ”Master Wu, come back to your senses, it’s just four slaves, no need to be this way.”

After speaking, Ahetai waved for another Han slave to be brought up.

This Han slave had witnessed the previous one being poisoned to death right in front of him, and now it was his turn, naturally invoking a sense of shared fate and fear, as he cried out in panic, ”Spare me, Lord, spare me, don’t kill me, I’ll kowtow to you, I’ll kowtow to you!”

But how could Ahetai care about what he said, a wave of his hand and the slave was dragged up by two Mulan Guards.

”Open your mouth.”

Ahetai looked at the slave and said, terrifying him into a full shake, Ahetai continued, ”Don’t forget, your child is still back at the house, do you want them involved?”

”No, don’t harm my child, don’t harm my child.”

The slave broke down, trembling as he opened his mouth, his lips still twitching uncontrollably.

Ahetai smiled and said, ”Come, have a bite.”

”This is the priceless Dragon Pattern River Puffer Fish.”

After speaking, Ahetai directly stuffed the toxic gland of the pufferfish into the slave’s mouth.

”Swallow it.”

Hearing this, the slave had no choice but to swallow the toxic gland of the pufferfish.

He immediately started gagging, and soon his whole body began to convulse, and he started foaming at the mouth.

Master Wu said, ”Quick, give him the antidote.”

Upon hearing this, Ahetai said, ”Give it to him.”

In an instant, two guards stepped forward, administering the antidote to the slave.

A miracle unfolded, as after taking the antidote, his body stopped convulsing, he calmed down and quickly recovered.

Ahetai waved over two doctors, who took turns diagnosing and said, ”Hmm, the poison is neutralized, truly a miraculous medicine.”

Upon hearing this, Ahetai was very satisfied and said, ”Not bad, not bad.”

After saying this, Ahetai cupped his hands towards Lord Yelu and said, ”Lord, the antidote works well.”

Yelu, hearing this, smiled and said, ”Good, very good, Master Wu, excellent work.”

Upon hearing this, Wu the Swift Blade immediately said, ”Thank you, Lord, for the praise.”

Yelu then gestured, ”Master Wu, you and your apprentice, quickly bring up the pufferfish meat.”

Upon hearing this, the two of them quickly placed the plated pufferfish meat on the table front, as Yelu picked up his chopsticks, about to eat, then stopped.

Looking at the silver plate before him, the plate hadn’t changed color, indicating no poison.

Still, he was not reassured, looking at Master Wu and said, ”Master Wu, since you made this fish, it’s only right you take the first bite!”

Upon hearing this, everyone around was taken aback, then all eyes turned towards Wu the Swift Blade.

Wu the Swift Blade heard this and without hesitation said, ”Alright.”

But at this moment, his little apprentice beside him said, ”Lord Yelu, my master doesn’t eat raw, let me take his place.”

”Wait, how can one make fish without eating fish?”

After saying this, Yelu looked at the little apprentice and said, ”Since you’re so filial, you should join your master.”

As Yelu spoke, he gestured, and Ahetai handed two pairs of chopsticks to Wu the Swift Blade and said, ”Master Wu, please.”

Wu the Swift Blade looked at the chopsticks, and without hesitation, picked up a piece of fish meat and put it in his mouth.

The apprentice followed suit, putting the fish meat into his own mouth.

Thus, both of them ate the fish before Yelu’s eyes.

Watching the two slowly chew, with an expression of enjoyment, Yelu’s mouth was watering as Wu the Swift Blade, after having a piece of Dragon Pattern River Puffer Fish, commented with admiration, ”Truly the king of sashimi, never have I encountered such a delicious raw fish in this life.”
