At the Poison Sect's encampment.
Jiang Gaoxuan sat in a chair in the living room, waiting.
He wore a mask to cover his swollen face.
After leaving in a sorry state yesterday, Jiang Gaoxuan had run into people from the Poison Sect. After following them, he'd learned of the Poison Sect's encampment in Clear Spirit City.
This morning, he'd come to pay them a visit.
Naturally, it was to deal with Luo Qingqian.
Although his true qi was more vigorous than Luo Qingqian's, he didn't have the ability to capture her in a normal fight. At most, both of them would be injured.
Of course, Jiang Gaoxuan didn't want to see that result.
The Poison Sect's poison was famous among the hidden sects. If he used poison, he'd have a chance to take Luo Qingqian down.
Thus, Jiang Gaoxuan came to the Poison Sect's encampment in full force.
A lackey invited him into the living room and sent a message to his superiors.
Jiang Gaoxuan waited for about ten minutes in the living room before someone arrived.
It was an enchanting woman in a black dress.
Jiang Gaoxuan had seen this woman a few times before. She was the Poison Sect's Holy Maiden, Shao Wanwan.
However, Shao Wanwan was beautiful, but Jiang Gaoxuan didn't have any thoughts about her.
First, his target was Luo Qingqian. Secondly, even if you take advantage of a woman who plays with poison, do you dare to do so?
"Why is it only the Poison Sect's Holy Maiden here? Don't you even have an elder in your encampment?" Jiang Gaoxuan's tone was displeased.
There were two reasons. First, the Poison Sect had made him wait for ten minutes. That was too long. Second, the Poison Sect hadn't even offered him a cup of tea? Was this how they treated their guests? Although he didn't dare drink the Poison Sect's tea, he still had to put on an act to show respect.
"As the Holy Maiden and an elder in the Poison Sect, I've already given you enough face by coming to see you," Shao Wanwan replied coolly.
Actually, Fifth Elder had gone back to the Poison Sect's headquarters to send a message. Shao Wanwan had the highest status in the encampment right now. Only she could come to see Jiang Gaoxuan.
Of course, Shao Wanwan wasn't foolish enough to say that out loud.
"So what if you're the Poison Sect's holy maiden? How dare you speak to me like that? Do you want to die?" Jiang Gaoxuan was very displeased.
In terms of sect strength, Jiang Gaoxuan felt that he was much stronger than the Poison Sect, so he naturally didn't hold back in his words.
Shao Wanwan sneered when she heard Jiang Gaoxuan's words. "You can try. Forget about me, even if you touch anyone from the Poison Sect, you won't be able to return alive."
Shao Wanwan's fearless reaction was somewhat out of Jiang Gaoxuan's expectations.
Jiang Gaoxuan thought for a few seconds before a thought struck him. "Is it true that the Poison Sect's ancestor is still alive?"
"You're quite well-informed." Shao Wanwan smiled faintly.
Jiang Gaoxuan scrutinized Shao Wanwan's expression and didn't realize she was bluffing. She really had something to rely on. It seemed that the recent rumors in the hidden Jianghu were true.
Thinking of this, Jiang Gaoxuan sucked in a breath of cold air.
The Poison Sect's ancestor! That was a person who struck fear in the martial cultivation world a hundred years ago. Who would've thought he was still alive?
"Hehe, I was just joking. Please don't take offense, Your Highness Holy Maiden," Jiang Gaoxuan said with a chuckle.
The Poison Sect was backed by the Poison Sect's ancestor. It wasn't something Jiang Gaoxuan could bully as he pleased.
Moreover, Jiang Gaoxuan hadn't come here to cause trouble for the Poison Sect. He had come here to ask them for a favor.
There was no need for him to become enemies with the Poison Sect.
Shao Wanwan didn't find Jiang Gaoxuan's change in attitude strange. After all, her ancestor was too powerful. It would be strange if Jiang Gaoxuan didn't fear him.
"You don't visit a temple without a cause. Why have you come? Speak directly," Shao Wanwan said directly, not wanting to waste time with Jiang Gaoxuan.
"Holy Maiden is truly smart. You immediately saw through this one's intentions," Jiang Gaoxuan praised before revealing his intentions. "I want to ask you for a poison."
"What is it for? Against whom? What is your reward? "Shao Wanwan asked three questions in a row.
Jiang Gaoxuan was very strong and ranked first on the Hidden Dragons and Phoenixes List. Someone who could make him use poison to deal with them clearly wasn't simple.
The Poison Sect's poisons were famous in the hidden jianghu. If something happened, the Poison Sect would definitely be blamed.
Shao Wanwan naturally wouldn't foolishly cause trouble for the Poison Sect.
Of course, if there was enough reward, it was completely negotiable.
"There was a woman who stole something from me and refused to give it back to me. I tried to reason with her many times, but she still refused to give it back. So I could only use some extreme methods to subdue her and take it back." Jiang Gaoxuan said vaguely.
"You still haven't told me who this woman is," Shao Wanwan reminded him when she saw that he hadn't answered completely.
"Luo Qingqian." Jiang Gaoxuan hesitated before answering truthfully. There weren't many women who could cause trouble for him, so he couldn't fool Shao Wanwan with lies.
Shao Wanwan wasn't unfamiliar with the name Luo Qingqian. She was the genius martial artist ranked second on the Hidden Dragons and Phoenixes List. Her background wasn't simple either.
Provoking such a person for no reason was simply asking for trouble.
"A high-grade movement technique and a high-grade sword technique." Sensing the emotions in Shao Wanwan's expression, Jiang Gaoxuan took the initiative to offer his reward.
Shao Wanwan's eyes brightened.
High-grade martial arts were the most precious treasures of first-rate sects, so Jiang Gaoxuan's reward was very generous.
Luo Qingqian wasn't to be trifled with, but if there was a reward, it was entirely possible.
In any case, she had the ancestor's support and didn't need to fear Luo Qingqian's background. Plus, the mastermind was Jiang Gaoxuan, so there was even less to fear.
However, in order to maximize her benefits, Shao Wanwan said, "Other than the reward you mentioned, I also want ten types of rare herbs, 500 jin of each." With that, she called for a subordinate to find a pen and paper and wrote down the names of the herbs, then handed it to Jiang Gaoxuan for him to see.
Jiang Gaoxuan's sect was located in an excellent geographical location that was suitable for growing rare herbs.
The ten types of rare herbs Shao Wanwan wrote down were essential for making poison. When the Poison Sect's people went to purchase them, they had to spend a huge amount of money every time.
Jiang Gaoxuan had a favor to ask of the Poison Sect, so Shao Wanwan naturally had to take the opportunity to extort a sum of money.
Jiang Gaoxuan took the paper with the herbs written on it and hesitated for a few seconds. "Deal."
Shao Wanwan was secretly delighted to see Jiang Gaoxuan agree so readily.
When she asked for 500 jin of rare herbs, she was actually asking for an exorbitant price. She was prepared to haggle and finally negotiated for 500 jin.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Gaoxuan agreed directly.
Shao Wanwan immediately wrote down the contract and had Jiang Gaoxuan place his fingerprint.
After the deal was done, Shao Wanwan asked, "What type of poison do you want?"
"I want a poison that makes women unable to control themselves and take the initiative after being poisoned." Jiang Gaoxuan's face was sinister.
Shao Wanwan understood and felt a sense of disgust towards Jiang Gaoxuan.
However, this didn't affect the deal.
Shao Wanwan loved to do bad things, especially dealing with beautiful female martial artists of the Righteous Path. Moreover, she had already reached an agreement with Jiang Gaoxuan, so she naturally couldn't go back on her word. She tossed a small bottle to him.
"For you."
Jiang Gaoxuan reached out and caught it thoughtfully.
There was no need to doubt the effects of the Poison Sect's medicine. However, Luo Qingqian wasn't simple. It wasn't easy to poison her.
To be safe, Jiang Gaoxuan said, "I heard that your Poison Sect's methods are incomparably strange. I wonder if you can help me?"
"Well, you'll need to pay me extra," Shao Wanwan said.
