Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 1000: Chapter 999 Death by Being Too Talkative

Watching Taotie excitedly advancing through the air toward that manor, Yan Yu felt an increasing sense of anxiety for some reason.

”What’s going on? That Master Lin clearly got poisoned by Divine Destruction and can’t use his Inner Qi anymore, so why do I still feel so uneasy?”

”What in the world is going on?”

Yan Yu couldn’t understand the unease conveyed by his sixth sense at the moment.

And that was why he hadn’t gone over with Taotie.

His eyes continued to scrutiny the situation inside the manor, watching that poisoned Master Lin.

All he saw was a face still deathly pale, muttering incredulously, ”Why can’t I use my Inner Qi, why, why...”

Yet, seeing ’Master Lin’ so panic-stricken, Yan Yu didn’t feel the slightest bit like he held a winning hand.

Even the sense of unease from his sixth sense was getting stronger.

”Haha...” Just then, Taotie arrived inside the manor. He said to ’Master Lin’,

”Master Lin, it is my first time meeting you, so let me introduce myself. I can’t remember what my real name is, but that’s unimportant!”

”My master gave me a name, called Taotie. He gave me this name because he taught me a Cultivation Method that can devour other people’s Spirit and Soul, this way of growing by devouring others, just like the growth of a Taotie.”

”That’s why I am called Taotie.”

”I am telling you this name so you will remember it. Because from now on, it will be your master!”

’Lin Dong’ sneered, ”Taotie, huh? Dream on about being my master.”

”Hahaha...” Taotie continued to laugh hysterically, ”You won’t be saying that soon.”

”You were asking why you can’t use your Inner Qi, right? Okay, then I’ll tell you: it’s because you’ve been poisoned by a new poison developed by my master. This poison, is called ’Divine Destruction’!”

”You must know about ’Soul Extinguish’, my third junior brother used it to deal with you before, but you escaped. However, with ’Divine Destruction’, there’s no escaping for you.”

”Because it’s not a liquid poison that needs to be mixed in food to poison you. It’s a poisonous gas, and I’ve released it into the air. As long as you breathe, you’ll be poisoned.”

”Now, you have clearly been poisoned by me!”

Taotie said so much because defeating a character like Master Lin gave him an excitement he hadn’t felt in a long time.

People, when excited, tend to talk a lot.

That’s also why in movies and TV series, villains tend to say so much just before they’re about to defeat the protagonist.

And that’s also why villains often die because they talk too much.

So excited!

Finally defeating the protagonist, that excitement is just like after hitting the jackpot, you have to let it out or you’ll burst.

If you don’t speak, you’ll suffocate!

’Master Lin’ at the moment suddenly realized, ”So that’s it, your new poison is called ’Divine Destruction’, a kind of poison that you can administer through the air. Truly inevitable!”

While ’Master Lin’ was speaking, a man stood at the edge of the rooftop of a skyscraper several miles away from Ten Miles Bamboo Forest.

This man stood with his hands behind his back, his robe flapping in the breeze.

The wind on the skyscraper’s rooftop made his attire rustle as his eyes fixated on the manor in the center of the lake beyond the Ten Miles Bamboo Forest.

If one looked closely, they could see that his eyes were emitting a golden light at the moment.

Seemingly able to see through everything for several hundred kilometers around!

Indeed, this person here was the real Lin Dong. And that ’Master Lin’ who went to the manor in the center of the lake was just a ’substitute’ created by Lin Dong with the help of Master Zhang Tianjue.

At that moment, he had activated his X-Ray and Listening abilities.

He saw and heard everything that was happening in the manor at the center of Ten Miles Bamboo Forest.

Finally, he grasped the most crucial piece of information.

It was about the newly developed poison called ’Divine Destruction’ by the World Poison King.

It was something Lin Dong was wary of.

But now, Lin Dong was no longer wary of it.

As the saying goes, fear originates from the unknown. Lin Dong had previously been wary of the poison precisely because he knew nothing about it, which is why even he felt some fear.

But now that he knew the specifics, Lin Dong was no longer afraid.

It could spread through the air, lie in wait within it, catching people off guard. So why shouldn’t Lin Dong just avoid breathing the poisoned air?

He immediately made a call to Long Ying.

”Uncle Long Ying, their trump card is a poison called ’Divine Destruction.’ It was newly developed by the world’s Poison King and can spread through the air, causing people to be poisoned...”

”After being poisoned, it will result in the loss of Inner Qi. At that time, when they couple it with the corresponding spells, they can control someone like a puppet, to be used at their whim!”

”Prepare anti-poison masks that can isolate the air on your side. When the time comes, wearing the masks and entering the Ten Miles Bamboo Forest will prevent poisoning.”

After giving these instructions, Lin Dong hung up the phone and looked once more toward the mansion in the middle of the lake.

His true self hadn’t made a move yet.

Instead, he was waiting for the people from the War Department to come.

Inside the mansion in the middle of the lake at the moment,

Taotie seemed to have opened up the floodgates of conversation.

He didn’t just tell him about ’Divine Destruction’ but also revealed that Yan Yu was his third junior brother.

And he also told ’Master Lin’ that the Zhao Donglai before him had become a puppet of Yan Yu’s.

”Master Lin, in the future, you will be just like him, doing whatever I tell you to do,” Taotie said, pointing at Zhao Donglai.

Then, he shouted loudly, ”Zhao Donglai, kneel!”

And Zhao Donglai immediately knelt down.

”Hahaha, how’s that? Obedient, right? Aren’t you even more obedient than a dog? Soon, you’ll be just like him,” Taotie felt a sense of achievement in humiliating ’Master Lin’.

After all, this was a young prodigy who had received high praise from even his own master.

His master even said that if he didn’t die young, he might very well reach the peak of the Martial Way in the future.

What a commendation that was.

Yet now, such a monstrously talented person was about to become his puppet.

”Hahaha...” The more he thought about it, the more excited Taotie became.

At this moment, his excitement was almost too much to contain.

His hands were slightly trembling.

’Master Lin,’ however, didn’t say anything at this moment but showed a strange smile on his face.

”Taotie, you don’t realize you’re on the brink of death.”

Taotie sneered, ”Master Lin, don’t bother with your big talk anymore. Even if Jesus himself came, no one would be able to save you!”

”I know your relationship with the Dragon King War God is very close. But he can’t save you.”

”Oh, by the way, I forgot to mention. The reason why the Dragon King War God has gone from being a War God to a trash today... Well, my third junior brother is to thank for that. He was the mastermind behind this entire affair...”

Saying this, he realized that he had said a little too much today.

So he quickly shut his mouth, no longer speaking.

He stepped in front of Lin Dong, ready to begin inscribing talismans on him.

But just at this moment, the ’Master Lin’ in front of him suddenly let out a sly smile.

At first, Taotie didn’t grasp the meaning behind the smile.

Yet, when his hand touched Master Lin’s skin, he was struck as if by thunder.

He seemed to understand that smile.

”You... You’re not Master Lin!!!”

Shocked beyond measure, Taotie exclaimed.
