The Invincible Strongest Student

Chapter 847: Chapter 847: You’re Not Qualified

The poisoned blood was dark purple, and only after nearly half a glass had flowed did the blood show red.

Then, Li Shan hurriedly used a small knife to cut a corner of his clothes, bandaging it over the wound.

Lin Tian looked at Tang Zong and asked, ”You should have brought some Antitoxic Elixir with you, right? The more common kind?”

”I did bring some.”

The Antitoxic Elixir is something the Tang Family always carries. After all, when they use poison, they themselves and allies need to take one first.

The Tang Family’s Antitoxic Elixir can temporarily suppress many kinds of poisons, but not the kind just now, so Tang Zong hadn’t taken it out.

Now that the poison needles and blood were expelled, taking one would definitely do no harm, although it might not help.

Li Shan took the Antitoxic Elixir and directly stuffed it into his mouth and swallowed it. Finally, he looked at Lin Tian with a very peculiar expression, not sure if he should feel hate or gratitude.

Had it not been for this guy, he wouldn’t have been in such a miserable state! But he genuinely saved him earlier, spending a considerable amount of Inner Strength.

Sensing Li Shan’s strange gaze, Lin Tian said, ”Let’s call our previous grievances settled?”

Li Shan nodded, thinking it was probably the best outcome.

Then, Lin Tian added, ”But your people framed me outside, getting me to this godforsaken place. That feud isn’t over yet.”

”...” Li Shan at that moment just wanted to quote an old saying to Lin Tian: When will revenge end?

After the detoxification, Li Shan’s impression of Lin Tian changed dramatically! Especially his Inner Strength, it was incredibly unusual! How could he use it? What an peculiar attribute his Inner Strength has!

Tang Zong was equally shocked. Those were six poison needles, dealt with in just a few minutes?

With that poison, each extra needle intensifies the toxicity. If Li Shan hadn’t been using Inner Strength to hold on and slow the spread of poison, he would’ve met King Yama!

Wasn’t the detoxification process a bit hasty? If it were really that easy, then the Tang Family’s poison wouldn’t be much use to Cultivators, would it?

This person called Lin Tian is an anomaly to the Tang Family!

Suddenly, Tang Zong noticed Lin Tian looking at him.

Tang Zong was taken aback, then asked, ”Why are you looking at me?”

Lin Tian pointed at the poison needles nailed to the upper bunk’s bed board and asked, ”Are all these poison needles made by your Tang Family?”

Tang Zong nodded and said, ”Indeed, they are my Tang Family’s secret make. Made through thirty-six steps of craftsmanship.”

Yue Rong chimed in from the side, saying, ”Besides their technique being fierce, their hidden weapons are also unmatched. These poison needles, called Spider Silk Needles, inherently carry toxicity and can meld with other poisons, very famous in the Tang Family. Furthermore, as far as I know, the Tang Family has over twenty other peculiar hidden weapons. But I suspect there are many more hidden weapons of the Tang Family unknown to outsiders.”

Tang Zong shot Yue Rong an angry glare, cursing him for being too talkative. Hidden weapons are best kept secret from as many people as possible, especially from dangerous enemies like Lin Tian!

Lin Tian chuckled and said, ”I’m rather interested. How about sharing the craftsmanship with me?”

Tang Zong stepped back, watching Lin Tian with vigilance and said firmly, ”Impossible! This is a Tang Family top secret! Only the direct descendants of the Tang Family know it, everyone else ends up dead!”

This threat was very pronounced, suggesting that if you wana know, prepare to die!

Lin Tian was indifferent, then laughed and said, ”What if I trade it for something your Tang Family values most?”

”Value most?” Tang Zong repeated, then said, ”Still impossible!”

Lin Tian shook his head with a smile, ”Though you are a direct descendant of the Tang Family, you definitely can’t make such decisions. I’m not negotiating with you, you’re just not worthy enough.”

”...” Tang Zong felt a pang in his chest, severely wounded pride!

Suddenly, Lin Tian said again, ”Since you won’t share the method, can you at least give me some of these hidden weapons?”

Tang Zong looked at Lin Tian as if he were a fool, silently refusing.

No way! These hidden weapons bear the Tang Family’s mark, how could they be given away?

What if someone used them to harm the Tang Family on purpose, like when the medicine store used the ’Buddha’s Slaughter Blade’? That would be like getting mud in your pants—not feces, but looking like it!?

Unintentionally bringing trouble, that would be truly a pain!

”Seems like you can’t decide about this either; we should discuss it with your elders later.”

Discuss with elders?

Tang Zong’s face twitched. Here I am, over thirty years old, and you talk about discussing with elders, isn’t that a bit too much?

Although... he truly couldn’t make the decisions for such significant matters.

”Alright, let’s talk business now. You brought me here because of the over three hundred rare herbs I got, right? And this is your plan? Beat me severely until I spill everything with snot and tears? Do you think that’s possible? Such naive thinking!”

”...” The three were speechless, clearly a survival of the fittest scenario and yet described as childish squabbling over candy!

”Actually, if you hadn’t come for me, I would have come for you. I just didn’t expect our meeting to be so unique.” Lin Tian said.

”Why would you come for us?” This question was indeed puzzling, the guy should’ve been hiding instead, right? Would he voluntarily become a target?

Lin Tian said, ”This isn’t the place for negotiation. I’m hungry after fighting with you guys on an empty stomach today. Let’s go out, eat, and talk over a meal.”

”Can you still go out now?” Yue Rong asked.

Lin Tian said, ”Didn’t you guys get me in here? Now Tang Feng is one of yours, right? Wanting to leave is just a word from him.”

”But why should we let you out?”

Lin Tian rolled his eyes, very impatiently said, ”Once the matter’s discussed, I can come back! You think I enjoy carrying the label of a fugitive? Besides, someone’s surely hired a lawyer for me. I’ve only acted in self-defense; you legally can’t keep me. No matter how extensive your connections, they can’t withstand public opinion. After all, I’m a public figure.”

”...” The three were speechless again. Sounds absurd yet when you think about it, not much was wrong.

Except this guy pulls off bragging in a truly annoying way.

Without waiting for the three to say more, Lin Tian stood up directly, strode quickly towards the door and walked out. Fortunately, Tang Feng hadn’t locked the door earlier, saving him the trouble of picking the lock.
