Chapter 1305: 575: Meng Tuoluo has arrived!

"How did you get in? You were clearly locked up," Lanling asked coldly.

Gou Li replied, "I said I wanted to join the Flame Demon Tribe, so Suo Mo let me through."

Lanling was taken aback; what did Uncle Suo Mo mean by this?

This woman’s martial skills are high, not as good as Constantine, nor as good as Suo Mo, but higher than Duoduo.

If she joins the Flame Demon Tribe, then there will be three Demonic Martial Grandmaster level powerhouses.

However, this woman is greedy, arrogant, and malicious.

Of course, none of this matters; the key is whether she can be trusted? Lanling doesn’t want to plant a destructive landmine within the ranks.

Lanling said, "You have no place in the Chimera Tribe, and no place in front of Constantine. I know that. But what about your daughter? She might be a better support for you?"

Gou Li replied, "Would you let me go for no reason?"

Lanling shook his head, "Of course not!"

Gou Li continued, "If you want to use me to make some deal with Nini’an, would she agree?"

Without a doubt, the answer is no. Nini’an’s character is entirely like her father Constantine, calculating to the extreme, certainly unwilling to suffer any losses.

Gou Li said, "I have no other choice. Joining you is my only way out."

Lanling fell into silence.

Gou Li added, "Many in the Rakshasa Tribe can live to 120 years old. For the next twenty to thirty years, I can remain young and beautiful. Moreover... It seems after sleeping with you, I become even more beautiful and young, and I can still have children."

Lanling asked, "And your son, Constantine II?"

Gou Li replied, "He is already ruined, initially brave but without cunning. After you shot out one of his eyes, he became even more frenzied and completely wasted."

Lanling said, "You really are a heartless woman, aren’t you?"

Gou Li replied, "If one doesn’t act for oneself, then they face divine punishment!"

"Let me use you, it can be done!" Lanling said, "You need to first gain my preliminary trust."

Gou Li lay in Lanling’s arms, nodding, "Alright, you say."

Lanling said, "I’ll give you a poison for which only I have the antidote. This way, your life and death will be entirely in my hands. If you betray me, you’ll face consequences more terrifying than death."

Gou Li’s beautiful face trembled for a moment, then she nodded, "Alright!"

Lanling stood up, "Wait here."

Then, Lanling went out and communicated with the Mirror Demon King using spiritual power, "Mirror, is there a poison with a single antidote? After taking this poison, if one does not periodically take the antidote, they’ll face consequences more terrifying than death."

The Mirror Demon King thought for a while and said, "Yes!"

"What is it?" Lanling asked.

"Curse E Dan!" the Mirror Demon King replied, "Created hundreds of years ago by the Elixir King of The Barbaric Wilderness. He was a very ugly man who fell in love with a woman of unparalleled beauty. But the woman wouldn’t even look at him, so he crafted Curse E Dan and tricked the stunning beauty into taking it. After that, every year she had to take a special antidote, or her body would rapidly age; her hair would fall out, and her skin would become as ghastly as a toad. Her bones would begin to collapse, enduring relentless pain, and after a month of torment, die miserably."

Lanling shivered; this Elixir King was truly vicious.

The Mirror Demon King continued, "However, if the antidote is taken in time, not only will you not age or become ugly but you will also remain forever young and beautiful. The Flowing Years Elixir is another creation of his."

The Flowing Years Elixir makes you twenty years younger but shortens your life by ten years.

It must be said, though eccentric and malicious, this Elixir King was indeed a genius.

The Mirror Demon King explained, "Through such despicable means, the exceptional beauty married the Elixir King. The Elixir King prepared ninety antidotes for her, hoping she would live to be 110 years old."

Lanling asked, "And what happened?"

The Mirror Demon King replied, "After taking the tenth antidote, the woman committed suicide."

Lanling clenched his fist regretfully and then asked, "There are seventy-nine antidotes left, but what about the poison?"

The Mirror Demon King said, "He made three vials of the poison and used only one!"

Lanling inquired, "Is it still in the treasure at the bottom of the lake?"

"Yes," the Mirror Demon King answered.

Lanling entered the cave, dove into the pool, and submerged to the dark lake bottom, beginning to search for the elixir.

Finally, amid a pile of gold coins, he found the box.

"Inside this box are Curse E Dan and seventy-nine antidotes. You can take only the poison while leaving the antidotes here," the Mirror Demon King instructed, "Upon opening the box, the poison and antidotes are kept separately."

Lanling opened the box and saw two bottles made of special crystal stones.

Virtually all valuable elixirs are stored in such crystal bottles. These crystal bottles repel water and air, preventing the elixirs inside from being eroded.

This treasure at the bottom of the lake contains rare Flowing Years Elixirs and Nirvana Blood. Why is there not even a Beast Origin Elixir, and why does Lanling need to spend gold coins to buy them at the Ghost Market?

Beast Origin Elixirs certainly exist, even dozens.

However, though precious, Beast Origin Elixirs are far inferior to things like Flowing Years Elixirs, so they’re only stored in ordinary porcelain bottles. After hundreds of years, they’ve seeped in water and been destroyed.

"The green bottle contains the poison, and the white bottle contains the antidote," said the Mirror Demon King.
