Chapter 17 Does Karma Travel That Fast?
1214 Words
Although Lyu You holds Gao Ge's neck in his hand, he doesn't really use much strength.
After all, the kind of stupid drama in TV shows that won't happen. If pinching someone by the neck while asking questions, can he even reply a word?
"This fruit is called Leiyang, it can exalt your strength and even help get your martial meridians through."
Lyu You's eyelids flutter.
"It seems quite wrong for me to regard you as an ordinary guy."
Lyu You thinks Gao Ge does know too much.
How can an ordinary person knows about strengths or martial meridians?
Gao Ge shows a mysterious smile.
"Eat it now." Says Lyu You, handing over a fruit.
Gao Ge hesitates for a while.
"You didn't treat me as a moron, did you? Or you thought I would believe whatever you just said?"
Gao Ge stays motionless.
"Why? Am I too kind to you, or you want me to feed you?" Asks Lyu You.
With a light smile, Gao Ge says, "Since you don't trust me and want me to try first, I will not resist, after all, such a good opportunity is really rare because there are only two Leiyang fruits on one Leiyang tree."
Then he takes over a fruit, tears off the outside layer, and puts it into his mouth.
Lyu You doesn't stop him, just stares at him quietly.
He does want Gao Ge to eat one.
Not just swindling.
As a cultivator, he understands the sinister designs of human hearts even though he is widely flattered by others due to his social standing--the young master of Thunder Sect.
He was highly alerted lest he might get into trouble, even though Gao Ge is a pathetic screw-up in his opinion.
Then, Gao Ge begins to spit out kernels of the fruits. They are seven or eight stones and they are as big as fingernails.
"Now, do you believe me?" Burps Gao Ge.
Lyu You smiles. He peels another fruit and puts it into his mouth and spits the stones.
When the fruit is swallowed up, Lyu You immediately feels a current of heat running through his body at a moderate speed.
Soon, the strength inside his body also begins to churn, making his face become red, yet the strength inside is still growing.
"Such a good thing!" Lyu You laughs and says, "If I wasn't so sensitive and came with you, I'd be fooled by you. What a comeback! Yet you didn't see that coming, did you? I caught you red-handed."
However, the way Gao Ge smiles makes Lyu You quite uneasy.
"What? Aren't you appeased?"
"You just spit ten stones." Says Gao Ge.
Lyu You's heart misses a beat.
"What?"
Gao Ge steps backwards and shows those stones with his foot.
"You see, you spit two more than I did. Yet every Leiyang fruit has ten stones."
Both of Lyu You's eyes turn red.
He gets what Gao Ge says.
He is fooled by this guy even though he has been quite careful.
Lyu You's anger flares.
He seems to be cheated by a monkey!
"Go to hell!"
With these words, he takes a step forward and slaps Gao Ge with his hand.
However, Gao Ge just moves back a bit and laughs happily.
When Lyu You begins to use his strength, the heat flowing in his body also moves more rapidly.
The moment his hand misses, a feeling of powerlessness sweeps over him, and the strength inside his body falls quickly as if it has been drawn by a pipe.
"Sorry, I forgot to tell you. Actually, Leiyang fruit is not very toxic, and will be gone within three days if an ordinary guy eats it. Well, he may suffer some pain for up to three days. However when you use your strength, the toxicity of it is then triggered, and will soon corrode your bones." He kneels down and looks at Lyu You, who is lying on the ground.
Just like a king glancing at a slave.
Lyu You stands on his hands and tries to get up several times, but he fails. It seems that there are not bones but streaks of soft straws supporting his body.
"The stone of Leiyang fruit is the best antidote. One or two can eliminate the toxicity." Says Gao Ge.
Lyu You is utterly speechless.
He lifts his chin as high as possible to see Gao Ge's face.
That face looked ordinary before.
But now, Lyu You is in awe of Gao Ge after regarding him with fresh eyes.
He could barely believe that a person at such a young age could be so horrifying.
Is Gao Ge's mind as smart as God?
Pretending to have eaten something bad, and then lures him to follow up inside the jungle.
This guy knew he would follow!
Lyu You cannot understand why Gao Ge is certain that everything would happen just as what he planned, since they are not that familiar with each other. Why on earth is his arrangement so rigorous?
"Help me, I won't bother you anymore. I would offer you numerous marital guidance, techniques and pills made from spiritual herbs. The Thunder Sect will also give you plenty of money." Says Lyu You, struggling.
And his voice becomes lower and lower.
He is kind of a wise guy, but not as cunning as Gao Ge.
He understands that he would be digging his own grave if he still threatens Gao Ge. The only chance to survive is having Xia Lu here, or he could pray for Gao Ge to be kind, even though it is ridiculous, but this is the only thing he can do now.
"Do you think I believe you or not?" Gao Ge sighs. "You can't be alive, you must die. You must die anyway. Otherwise, how can I live peacefully? As for your Thunder Sect, they can't find me. Of course, I will probably visit them after I make great success. Well, I am never a gentleman, yeah?"
He stops suddenly.
He can see Lyu You's pupils gradually spreading, and his meridian not going up and down. Lyu You was dead.
Life has always been so fragile. It seems that human beings are standing at the top of the earth's food chain. In fact, Lions or tigers can easily tear a strong man apart if he doesn't have any weapons.
Therefore, the most powerful weapon of human has never been a physically perfect body, but a wise brain.
Even in the field of immortal cultivation.
Gao Ge slowly stands up, pats the dust on his clothes, and smiles happily again.
It feels so damn good by killing someone he hates.
Just as he is about to leave, he feels a sudden gust of wind behind him.
The moment he turns around, a stench smell has already come.
"ROAR!"
That huge b****y mouth lets out a snarl, and Gao Ge strikes it fiercely upon the huge head, the head is as hard as a steel board. Great pain spreads along his arm, thankfully he stepped aside in time to avoid the sharp teeth of the beast, but his body is still knocked out.
Gao Ge is swearing harshly when he flies out.
Bloody hell.
