A Clash of Gods - Chapter 100

Chapter 100 Be Tied up
Yang Ning thought that this teenage girl was vicious, so he was more careful. At this time, Zhao Yuan roared, rolled to get up and then ran quickly. But after he ran only a few steps away, a fork with three prongs flew out and hit his leg. Zhao Yuan shrieked and fell on the ground.

Yang Ning saw that the fork was thrown away by the snake hunter behind him. He knew that if he fell into the girl’s hands, it would be a disaster, so he wouldn’t miss this good chance. He turned around all of a sudden and shouted loudly, “Go away!” The Cold Blade in his hand was shot to the snake hunter.

The snake hunter was tall and strong, but he was a human after all. It was impossible for him to avoid the Cold Blade which could cut clean through iron as though it were mud.

Seeing that Yang Ning rushed over, the snake hunter grunted like a beast and didn’t retreat but moved ahead. He waved a fist and tried to punch Yang Ning.

Suddenly the girl shouted in a clear voice, “Little Devil, stay away!”

Hearing her voice, the snake hunter reacted quickly and withdrew his fist immediately. He turned around and ran to one side, letting Yang Ning rush over.

Yang Ning thought that the terrain in the mountain was complex and there were trees and ancient vines everywhere. He would take advantage of the terrain and escape from these people first.

If they fought alone, although the two strong men were as tall and big as iron towers, Yang Ning didn’t fear them. But the girl could control the poisonous creatures, which were impossible to guard against, so he’d better avoid them as soon as possible.

Unexpectedly, when he ran only ten steps away, he felt dizzy. He thought it was bad and staggered forward for three or four steps more. Then he was dazzled and put one hand on a big tree as a support. He knew that he had been stung by a poisonous wasp and probably the poison attacked. He took a deep breath and then felt the sky and earth spinning round. He softened and fell on the ground.

Although he lay on the ground, he was conscious. He felt that his whole body was numb and wanted to struggle to get up, but his body was soft and powerless.

He was angry and then heard the girl’s giggle, which was next to his ear. He found that she squatted down three steps away from him and smiled at him. “Run. Why don’t you run? I found that you ran like a wolf and almost thought that you could run away.”

Yang Ning knew that under the situation, it was useless to curse or lose temper, so he had to smile bitterly, saying, “Girl, I have never offended you, but you harm me for no reason. Don’t you feel guilty?”

The girl shook her head with a smile. “I didn’t harm you. If you are well-behaved and stand still, the wasp’s poison won’t attack so soon. As long as you say something nice to me and make me happy, maybe I can detoxify you, but you insisted on running, and the blood flows more quickly, so you fell on the ground. You can’t blame me.”

Yang Ning said, “It’s my fault indeed. How about you detoxify me and we make friends? Let’s not hurt each other.”

The girl chuckled. “Make friends? Do you qualify to be my friend?”

Yang Ning thought this demon girl was so impolite. He wanted to frighten her, but he thought that Zhao Yuan had tried and it was useless. At least, this girl didn’t like to be cowed by force, so he sighed intentionally. “Don’t hurt me. I have to take care of my family. Don’t you have parents? Think about your parents and mine. If I can’t look after my family, what should they do?”

The girl tilted her head and responded seriously, “I naturally have my father, but I don’t have a mother. My father never needs me to look after him.”

Yang Ning was stunned and asked, “Everybody has a mother. Why don’t you have a mother?”

“She died long ago.” The girl didn’t mind. “You have been poisoned by the wasp, but you won’t die for now.”

Yang Ning was astonished and pretended to be calm, asking, “I won’t die? Can the wasp poison people to death?”

The girl laughed. “It won’t be poison if it can’t kill people. My master taught me to raise these wasps. I don’t like the poison which can kill people at once. The best poison is this kind, as I can see the victim die slowly.”

Yang Ning heard her indifference and felt furious. He knew that he wouldn’t get what he wanted after talking with this demon girl, so he couldn’t help but curse, “Demon Girl, did I kill your father? You harm me in this way. When… When I recover, I will let you suffer…” He wanted to say “suffer a living death”, but Zhao Yuan had threatened the girl like this, while she made him suffer a lot, so Yang Ning didn’t continue.

“Kill my father?” The girl didn’t mind when Yang Ning called her Demon Girl, and disdain was shown on her adorable and pretty face. “Can you kill my father? You are just so so, and without that blade, you can’t even defeat Big Devil and Little Devil. If you can see my father, he won’t need to lift a finger, and you will…” She intentionally stuck out her tongue and rolled her eyes. She meant that her father could make Yang Ning die miserably without lifting a finger.

She looked naughty and lovely, but Yang Ning knew that she was cruel, so he felt disgusted with her. He thought, “Anybody likes to brag nowadays, no matter if they are old or young, and this demon girl is so young, but she talked so big.” However, he was curious about her father.

Seeing that Yang Ning didn’t answer, the girl asked with displeasure, “I am talking to you. Don’t you hear me?”

“I have nothing to say to you,” Yang Ning responded crossly. While speaking, he exerted his strength secretly to check if he could get up. The demon girl was merely three steps away from him, and the two big men were farther away. If he could take the chance to control the demon girl, he could naturally get the antidote.

However, he could speak, but he felt powerless all over his body, and it was difficult to attack the demon girl surprisingly.

The girl rolled her smart eyes and laughed. “Do you want to get up to capture me and force me to take out the antidote? Without the antidote, you can’t get up. Stop daydreaming.” She moved forward and got close to Yang Ning. Then she lowered her head, and she was only a finger away from his face. Her skin was tender and elastic, and her smile was sweet, but Yang Ning felt that this beautiful face was extremely ugly. He just wanted to reach out to catch her, but he couldn’t even raise his arm anyway.

“I said you can’t, so you can’t.” The girl chuckled. “As long as you reach out your hand now, you can catch me. If you are capable, I won’t dodge. Catch me now.”

Although she liked to play with the poisonous creatures, she had a faint fragrance on her body, the special fragrance of a young girl’s body.

Yang Ning sighed. “What are you going to do? Do you want to kill me? I can’t move now. If you want to take advantage of my difficulties, you can take actions now.”

“Whatever you say is of no use. You want to goad me into action.” The girl giggled. “I won’t fall into your trap. But you are not evil seemingly. I won’t kill you. If you are lucky enough and won’t die before we reach the valley and find him, maybe he can detoxify you.”

“Valley?” Yang Ning was surprised. “What valley?”

The girl picked up the Cold Blade next to Yang Ning and checked it. Then she put it close to his cheek and asked in reply, “Do you think this blade is sharp or your skin is thick after I cut you?”

Yang Ning’s heart sank, and he thought that the demon girl was evil and might really cut his face. He just snorted and didn’t speak.

The girl waved the blade next to Yang Ning’s cheek and then laughed. “You are so bold. You don’t fear, and it’s not fun. I won’t cut your face. After the poison in your body attacks and you die, I will skin your face. Then you won’t feel the pain. Do you think I am nice to you?”

Hearing the girl say something so cruel in a sweet voice, Yang Ning was scared, thinking, “Whose daughter is this demon girl? Like father, like son. This girl is so sinister, and her father must be a bad person.”

The girl put away the Cold Blade and reached out her tender hand to pat Yang Ning’s cheek. “Call me big sister, and then I will take you to find somebody to detoxify you.”

“You can kill me, but you can’t insult me.” Yang Ning rolled his eyes. “You are two or three years younger than me, and you should call me big brother… Forget it. I don’t want to have such a younger sister like you. Otherwise, I would rather kill myself.”

The girl instantly laughed charmingly. “You are humorous, and I don’t want to let you die too soon.” She got up and made a gesture. Then the big man whose name was Little Devil walked over and tied up Yang Ning with a rope, too. Yang Ning knew that the rope on him was not the ordinary hemp rope, but it was made of ancient vine or so.

Big Devil pulled out the three-tined fork from the tree and tied up the burly man who was nailed to it.

Little Devil lifted Yang Ning with one hand and then walked over to pick up Zhao Yuan who was in a coma.

When Yang Ning lay on the ground, he just felt powerless all over and didn’t feel as dizzy as before. But when Little Devil lifted him and walked, Yang Ning immediately felt dizzy again. He knew that the demon girl didn’t lie to him and as long as he moved, the poison would attack. He felt that his eyes were more indistinct and at last it was dark before them. He felt nothing in his brain and then became unconscious.

When he woke up, he felt it was dark around and his arms and legs were tied up. He trembled slightly all over and didn’t know where he was.

He moved a bit and his body was still soft and feeble, but he could change his position. He moved left and right, and his legs were bent. He wanted to straighten them, but there was something under his feet. He soon understood that if nothing else, he might be locked up in a wooden box. He lightly knocked backward with his head and there were drumming sounds, so he knew that he knocked on a plank.

He tried to calm down and hold his breath to listen carefully. Then he heard the creak, which was the sound of a moving carriage.

He thought it over and knew that he was put in a big wooden box, which must be in a carriage, and the carriage was moving ahead.

He remembered that the demon girl said that they would go to a valley to find somebody to detoxify him, but he didn’t know who they would look for. While the demon girl put the poison, and she had the antidote, so why would they go to the valley to find somebody else to detoxify him? This demon girl came from nowhere and was mysterious, so Yang Ning was confused.
