“Those bastards, they must be related to Hong Shixian!”

“Chase them down, quick!”

The leader roared in anger, but his surroundings remained silent.

When he looked behind, his heart almost stopped out of shock.

Where were his men?

They had all hid in the bushes for comfort!

Suddenly, all sorts of strange noises arose, breaking the once quiet atmosphere.

And this was coupled with an indescribable scent in the air.

The leader almost blacked out at this point, but the discomfort in his stomach saved him.

“Damnable scoundrel, dare to resort to dirty tricks!”

He cursed, hastily finding a bush to hide too. As his body squatted down, it was a whole new level of relief.

Hundreds of miles away from the site, Jiang Xiaobai emerged from a bunch of bushes, dressed anew, and feeling at ease.

Not long after, AnRan came out as well looking nonplussed. They exchanged a silent glance and refrained from speaking.

They efficiently started a fire and sat next to it.

Yet none of them started any kind of conversation.

After some time, AnRan finally broke the silence. “Boss, keep a dose of antidote for me too.

Jiang Xiaobai nodded and threw over a potbellied porcelain bottle filled with antidote.

Having obtained the remedy, AnRan finally relaxed, feeling much more at ease.

But recalling their desperate flight, AnRan felt discomfort once again. The nonplussed expression returned visibly on his face.

Jiang Xiaobai didn’t fare much better, having difficulty masking his discomfort.

He stood instead of sitting down, too overpowered by the recent events.

The duo faced an overwhelming enemy. Jiang Xiaobai knew a forceful breakout isn’t the solution. It would bear no fruit.

Hence, while he stalled, he crushed the laxative pills he had been concealing on him.

He was short on time and didn’t even have a chance to consume the antidote himself.

In other words, everyone fell victim to the trick, explaining why Jiang Xiaobai had asked AnRan to endure it.

A tactic that hurts oneself three times more than the enemy, this was the only way to escape the situation at hand.

Jiang Xiaobai assumed just enduring the discomfort would get him through. Post-retreat he could just quickly eat an antidote.

But the issue was, the sinister trick was frequently employed on enemies but never on himself.

He didn’t know that it’s impossible to bear, especially when mana is employed, the pills’ effects are terrifying.

By that point, it wasn’t a choice anymore. Your body would already be protesting against it.

Thus, one can well imagine what happened during the hectic escape.

It was a flurry of action, non-stop chaos.

Fortunately, there was a pond nearby. Otherwise, it would have been extremely embarrassing.

Such a horrifying scene, Jiang Xiaobai swore to never recall again.

Even though the antidote had been consumed and all symptoms gone, the aftermath was profound.

The two dared not eat anything, fearing reactions from their stomachs. It was like a nightmare, haunting you for a very long time.

Jiang Xiaobai now knew for himself what it felt like to be on the receiving end.

It was terribly bitter.

After an unknown period, AnRan’s stomach suddenly growled. He stood up in a hurry, ready to rush into the bushes.

But soon, he realised it was due to hunger.

“Boss, let’s agree on this. If such a thing happens again, you should discuss it with me first, ok?”

“Ah, the situation was too complex then. Discussing with you wouldn’t have helped anyway. It’s better if you didn’t know to avoid suspicion.”

Jiang Xiaobai gave a wry smile. “That said, the pill is incredibly effective. It’s a must-have for eliminating enemies on travels.”

“No, boss please don’t mention it anymore!” AnRan quickly covered his ears.

I refuse to listen, hope it’s all water under the bridge.

Jiang Xiaobai rubbed his nose and hurried to hunt a deer to roast over the fire.

The two avoided talking about what had happened earlier, fearing it would ruin their appetites and camaraderie.

Fortunately, the effect of the pill persisted for quite some time. According to Jiang Xiaobai’s estimation, without the antidote, the effects would last nearly five hours, almost half a day.

Moreover, the aftermath was extreme.

Not to speak of the psychological trauma; the physical draining, tiredness, and dehydration are unbearable even for the most powerful monk. The pill affected the spirit inside, not the physical body.

Unless you are devoid of any spiritual power.

“Boss, let’s forget about what happened. We must never bring it up again!”

AnRan said, looking at Jiang Xiaobai after finishing his grilled meat: “However, Boss, can you give me a dose of the antidotes for other poisons that you carry?

I don’t want to be unwittingly affected by your affairs in the future.”

Jiang Xiaobai didn’t hesitate and immediately gave AnRan a dose of each antidote. After all, he had but a few different ones himself.

“This time, someone intentionally exposed our whereabouts. I suspect it’s the horde that came to vex us earlier.”

Jiang Xiaobai said calmly: “It’s likely they are following us even now. We must not stay here any longer, let’s go after we are done eating.”

AnRan nodded, hastily bundled his belongings, and left with Jiang Xiaobai.

And just as they left, more than a dozen men rushed over, dressed in the attire of the Thousand Yuan Dynasty. Upon finding the traces left behind, they continued their chase.

However, they were clueless about Jiang Xiaobai’s cold smile beneath the earth, as he used his earth escape technique.

Quickly, he entered a cave where AnRan was hiding. Upon seeing Jiang Xiaobai,

AnRan jumped out.

“How did it go, Boss?”

“Just as I expected–it’s either that we have been marked or those guys have never left our trail.”

Jiang Xiaobai snorted.

This time, they had truly been vexed.

He really wanted to confront the person behind these events: “If I ever find out who’s messing with me, I will make sure they squat in a toilet for three days straight!”

Hearing this, AnRan’s face changed.

“Boss, we are still more than ten days away from the opening of the Mad

Demon Secret Land, what should we do now?”

A cold smile crept onto Jiang Xiaobai’s face: “Of course, we give them a taste of their own medicine..”
