BXBX NOVEL Chapter 43 Trap
After receiving the invitation, Zhao Yu weighed his options for a while and decided to attend Wang Jingzhang\'s birthday party.
After all, Wang Jingzhang\'s birthday party was held in the Market of the Nine Chasm Mountain, which was relatively safe.
Ten days later, at the Lotus Scent Building, the largest tavern in the Nine Chasm Mountain Market.
As soon as Zhao Yu entered the Lotus Scent Building, he saw a great number of cultivators, most of whom were at the Middle Stage of Qi Refining or above.
"Pill Master Zhao!"
A voice, laden with seductive sweetness and enchanting appeal, sounded. The stunning beauty, clad in thin white robes that exposed vast expanses of her fair skin, with a curvaceous figure and extraordinarily gorgeous looks, approached with a fragrant breeze and a smile.
Right beside this beautiful woman was a short, middle-aged cultivator with a weasel-like face and sneaky appearance. He was looking at Zhao Yu with a wary expression.
The stunning woman was none other than Zhao Yu\'s new neighbor, Luo Jiuniang, and the middle-aged cultivator was Meng Yinghan. Meng Yinghan had been bewitched by Luo Jiuniang ever since he met her, spending all of his Spirit Stones on her and considering Zhao Yu as his biggest romantic rival.
Zhao Yu said, "I\'ve met both fellow Daoists!"
With hopeful eyes, Luo Jiuniang smiled sweetly and said, "Pill Master Zhao, have you given it any thought? If you just nod, this humble woman will leave the Hundred Fragrance Pavilion to become your Dao Companion and serve by your side."
Zhao Yu thought to himself, "What a temptress! Alas, unsolicited favors are often a prelude to treachery or theft!"
Luo Jiuniang, as the top courtesan of the Hundred Flowers Building, might not have the same level of beauty as Ling Qianxue, but her figure and charm surpassed Ling Qianxue\'s. If she wanted to reform, more than ninety percent of the male cultivators in the Nine Chasm Mountain Market would go crazy for her.
"Jiuniang, Pill Master Zhao doesn\'t even respect you! He\'s the only Pill Master in the Nine Chasm Mountain Market, a high and mighty figure! You\'re not fit for him!"
"Why bother to cast your warm face upon his cold butt? I, Meng, am different. I will not mind those things you did in the Hundred Flowers Building! As long as you become my Dao Companion, I will treat you well for the rest of my life!" said Meng Yinghan, hurriedly stepping forwards and speaking without discretion.
Luo Jiuniang\'s brows raised slightly, her gaze flitted across Meng Yinghan, a barely concealed look of disgust in her beautiful eyes, yet she still wore an alluring smile and said, "Pill Master Zhao, do you really look down on me?"
Zhao Yu declined tactfully, "It\'s an honor for Zhao to be favored by Jiuniang. Regrettably, my heart belongs to another, so I must apologetically decline."
Luo Jiuniang\'s eyes flickered and she asked, "Who is the fairy that has captivated Pill Master Zhao\'s soul and dreams?"
Just then, the crowd stirred as the ethereally beautiful Ling Qianxue, dressed in white robes, and the similarly attired and handsome Wang Jingzhang entered the scene.
Luo Jiuniang chuckled, "What a splendid celestial couple! Could it be that the one who has enchanted you, grand Pill Master Zhao, is none other than Miss Ling of the Ling Family?"
Meng Yinghan shook his head, scoffing, "That\'s like a toad lusting after a swan\'s flesh! Although Pill Master Zhao is the only one in the Nine Chasm Mountain Market, he is too old! He could almost be Miss Ling\'s father. And in terms of looks, status, and stature, he\'s far behind the young master of the Wang Family. How could Miss Ling possibly fancy him?"
Zhao Yu couldn\'t help but give Meng Yinghan another look. Not only was Meng ugly, but he also liked to be sarcastic and speak insensitively, so he didn\'t have many friends.
However, Meng Yinghan was a Talisman Master, capable of drawing popular Spirit Talismans like the Evil Warding Talisman and Featherweight Talisman, and also had a Cultivation Level at the Later Stage of Qi Refining. Therefore, despite his foul mouth, there were still those willing to make his acquaintance.
After Ling Qianxue and Wang Jingzhang made their entrance, the numerous cultivators also took their seats.
Servers brought in a variety of delicious dishes made with Demon Beast Meat, along with Spiritual Wine and Spiritual Tea, placing them on the tables one after another.
Luo Jiuniang praised, "First-grade mid-quality spirit fish, the Green Jade Carp, spiritual wine that costs one Spirit Stone per cup from the Hundred Flowers Brew, Silver Dragon Bi Fragrance Tea—it is indeed befitting of the great young master of the Lingxi Wang family to be so generous!"
Meng Yinghan glanced at Zhao Yu and mocked, "After all, he is the direct descendant of the Lingxi Wang family. Naturally, he is a hundred times stronger than some unknown Loose Cultivator!"
Zhao Yu responded with a faint smile.
"It is my honor that you all could attend my birthday banquet! Thank you, everyone! I\'ll drink to you all!"
Wang Jingzhang raised a cup of the Hundred Flowers Brew and drank it down in one gulp.
The numerous cultivators began to savor the delicious food.
Within the restaurant, the scent from various incense burners rose up, whetting appetites and calming minds.
Thud!
A cultivator suddenly saw stars and crashed heavily onto the table, sending dishes and cutlery flying.
One after another, cultivators fell onto their tables, creating a cacophony of breaking tableware.
"Poison!!"
"There\'s poison in the food!"
".….."
The cultivators could not help but shout loudly.
Luo Jiuniang and Meng Yinghan also trembled and collapsed heavily onto the tables.
"Poison? Why don\'t I feel it? Is it the power of the Dao Fruit I swallowed? Or the strength of my physique that rivals that of a Body Cultivator at Foundation Establishment?"
Zhao Yu\'s mind stirred slightly, and he too crashed heavily onto the table. At the same time, he discretely popped a Detoxification Pill into his mouth.
"Wang Jingzhang, what on earth are you trying to do?"
Ling Qianxue also felt dizzy, her delicate body softened, and it was only through sheer willpower that she managed to slump into her chair, glaring at Wang Jingzhang with clenched teeth.
Wang Jingzhang lifted Ling Qianxue\'s chin with a smug smile, "Ling Qianxue, from today onward, the Changyang Ling family will cease to exist. I like girls who are gentle and understanding! You better become the way I like, or once I tire of you, I will sell you to a brothel! You don\'t want to become the most lowly prostitute from the esteemed Changyang Ling family, do you?"
Ling Qianxue gnashed her teeth, "You dare to move against the Changyang Ling family! The Cang Spirit Sect will never let you off! Your Lingxi Wang family is doomed!"
The territories of the five great Foundation Establishment families of Cang Country are recognized by the Cang Spirit Sect. If the Lingxi Wang family were to attack the Ling family without the permission of the Cang Spirit Sect, they would most likely be annihilated by the sect.
Wang Jingzhang chuckled lightly, "The Cang Spirit Sect has its own troubles to worry about! The North Desolation shall belong to our great Yin Ghost Sect!"
Ling Qianxue\'s face turned pale, "Your Lingxi Wang family has betrayed the Cang Spirit Sect!!"
The Lingxi Wang family is one of the five great Foundation Establishment families of Cang Country and is also known as the number one Foundation Establishment family. The Wang family has two Foundation Establishment Cultivators, one of whom is even a late-stage powerhouse.
The Wang family\'s two strongest Foundation Establishment Cultivators and many Qi Refinement Cultivators have been conscripted by the Cang Spirit Sect. Should they betray on the front lines, it would certainly deal a heavy blow to the sect.
