Sueños Florales en la Ciudad

Capítulo 52

"Demon Heart Snow?"

Feng Xuese really didn't know, and even the name "Mo Xin Xue" was unfamiliar to him.

The Poisonous Hand Hellwoman chuckled, "My junior sister is the youngest disciple Master took in during his later years. She's always been spoiled and willful, and this time she actually spent a fortune hiring martial arts masters from all over the world to deal with you. It really baffles me, her senior sister. Could it be that you seduced her and then abandoned her, making her hate you to the core..."

Feng Xuese, unwilling to listen to her nonsense any longer, interrupted her and said, "Take out the antidote!"

The ruthless woman with poisonous hands glanced at the child in his arms and feigned surprise: "You killed my husband, and you still want to ask me for the antidote?"

Feng Xuese knew that the longer the child was delayed, the greater the danger she would face. She had no time to waste words with her and drew her sword directly.

Poisonous Hand Demoness, however, did not confront him directly. Instead, she turned and left, running swiftly through the jungle, displaying remarkable lightness skills.

Feng Xuese stepped forward and chased after him. After circling around a few times, the view suddenly opened up before her, and she had arrived at a valley.

The fog had dissipated, revealing lush green mountains all around, with plum and bamboo growing interspersed in the valley, creating a tranquil and pleasant atmosphere.

With a sword of maple-white color pointed at the throat of the Poisonous Hand Demoness, he said calmly, "Give me the antidote!"

The Poisonous Woman was completely unfazed, and asked with a charming laugh, "What antidote?"

"This baby!" Feng Xuese only uttered four words before the sword tip moved slightly forward, already slicing through her skin.

Poisonous Woman was shocked that he would actually do it, and her face paled instantly.

Feng Xuese coldly replied, "I don't want to say it a second time!"

Poisonous Hand Woman gritted her teeth: "Fine! I'll give it to you!"

She slowly reached into her bosom, rummaged around for a while, and took out a green box. She opened the lid, revealing a vermilion, jelly-like liquid.

Knowing that this enchantress was cunning and treacherous, Feng Xuese feared that she would use poison again, so she held her breath and stared at her intently.

Just then, the child in his arms suddenly burst open with a "pop," and a cloud of pink smoke spread out from the ruptured body.

Feng Xuese, concerned for the child, hurriedly looked down to check, only to be directly hit by the pink smoke.

He reacted with lightning speed, letting out a clear whistle, and casually slammed the bloated child's corpse towards the demoness. He then soared into the sky like a startled crane, landing on a blue stone a dozen steps away.

Poisonous Hands Dodged by leaning back, laughing loudly: "Maple Snow Color, you're supposed to be a seasoned veteran, yet you're so easily tricked!"

Feng Xuese stood on the blue stone, feeling a burning sensation in her eyes, as if cut by a knife, and couldn't help but want to cry.

However, he was a man of honor, and he would rather bleed than shed tears; if he did, his reputation would be ruined. He forcefully used his inner strength to suppress the burning pain in his eyes, but he felt the pain growing more and more intense, spreading deeper and deeper into his head. Even with his high level of martial arts, he couldn't help but feel a little flustered.

He knew he absolutely couldn't let the enemy see through his disguise, so the more confused he was, the more he had to control his facial expressions. He smiled and said, "Oh? I'm rather unskilled, but I'd like to hear how you plotted against me, young lady?"

The Poisonous Woman said smugly, "I know you're an old hand. If I directly poisoned the child, you would definitely see through it. So I first had forty-one kinds of poisonous insects bite the child, planting the venom in his body. These venoms counteract each other, so the child won't die immediately. I also mixed non-toxic black basil into the thick fog. When the child inhaled this black basil, it activated the venom, forming a strange poisonous gu. But this poison only affects the child and won't harm you. So I added a third thing, which is that box of red mirage ointment from earlier. I used its scent to cause the poisonous gu to mutate again, thus forming an extremely rare and strange poison."

She paused to catch her breath after speaking all this in one breath, and laughed, "By using three poisons to stimulate each other, and with such a painstaking plan, even if you, Feng Xuese, possess extraordinary abilities, I'm afraid you won't be able to leave this valley alive!"

Feng Xuese was silent for a moment, then asked, "Whose child is this?"

Poisonous Hand Demoness laughed, "How should I know? I just caught one on the way down the mountain! I need to use ordinary children like this to lure you in! Haha, you self-proclaimed chivalrous people are ridiculously stupid!"

Feng Xuese coldly said, "Poisonous Hand Hellwoman, do you think you can trap me like this?"

He sat leisurely on the bluestone, patted the sword in his hand, and smiled, "Come, come, use whatever means you have, and see if I, Feng, will grant your wish."

Poisonous Hand Demoness laughed, "Maple Snow Color, I know your swordsmanship is unparalleled. Do you think I would fall for your trick when I have such a clear advantage?"

A smile suddenly appeared on Feng Xue's handsome face: "Then, I must offend you, young lady!"

His figure floated up like a light cloud, lightning flashed in his palm, and when he returned to the blue stone, a string of blood droplets dripped from the tip of his sword.

Poisonous Hand Demoness stared blankly at the new bloody hole in her chest. A stream of dark red blood gushed out. She pressed one hand against the wound, but the blood wouldn't stop no matter what she did. Her face paled, and then she slowly collapsed.

“I’m sorry to kill you!” Feng Xuese’s voice was gentle. “I will kill you not because you poisoned me, but because you killed that child.”

He paused for a moment, then continued, "Those who kill children deserve to die!"

He explained gently, unaware that the woman could no longer hear him.

"Slap, slap, slap!"

Suddenly, several rounds of applause rang out from the valley.

Feng Xuese heard a series of light, delicate footsteps, looked up, and smiled faintly as she turned towards the source of the sound: "Who goes there?"

A soft voice said, "This humble concubine, Mo Xinxue, greets Young Master Feng."

"Oh?" Feng Xue raised an eyebrow and smiled slightly. "I've heard so much about you!"

Mo Xinxue said, "Young Master Feng, you must already know that the one who has been chasing you all this way is this humble concubine!"

Feng Xuese nodded: "I know."

"Then, does Young Master Feng know why this lowly concubine went to great lengths to hire so many people to kill you?"

Feng Xuese looked at her quietly: "I would like to hear the details."

"Young Master Feng, a few months ago, did you kill a man called Thousand-Handed Flower-Picking Thirteen Wolves?"

Maple Snow nodded: "And then?"
