This world is not lacking in perverse individuals.
And many of these people derive their pleasure from the suffering of others.
Clearly, Yuan Shao was one of them.
However, from their very first encounter, Ye Guichen could sense that Yuan Shao was not only perverse, but also highly ambitious.
There was a disdainful look in his eyes, as if he looked down on all the others around him.
Claiming the title of Great General, he truly believed himself to be the Yuan Shao of the Three Kingdoms era, wanting to dominate the battlefield and hold supreme power.
Zhou Weijun was clearly terrified.
This place was undoubtedly a dragon's den, and Yuan Shao had prepared everything in advance.
Not only did he have his people everywhere, but even Huo Liao, who could destroy a fake mountain with a single punch, was under his control.
How could they escape this situation?
Not only was Zhou Weijun anxious, but even the seductive Liu Ruyi, who was as beautiful as a gorgeous rose, was trembling all over, her smile completely gone.
Half an hour ago, she thought she had found someone she could rely on, but half an hour later, the other party had turned her into a plaything in their game, a shocking change of face.
This Yuan Shao was truly bold and reckless to the extreme.
"General Yuan, I..." Liu Ruyi tried to stand but was pressed down by Yuan Shao's large hand, while a blunt knife, sharp enough to cut nothing, was already plunged into her abdomen.
Blood began to flow.
Liu Ruyi's face froze with an expression of disbelief.
For some reason, she didn't even feel pain, only a slight numbness.
Watching her own blood dye her clothes red, Liu Ruyi's face took on a deathly pallor: "Yuan..."
She tried to struggle but couldn't.
"Shh..." Yuan Shao made a silencing gesture, signaling Liu Ruyi to remain silent, while he turned to Zhou Weijun: "Brother, it's your turn!"
"To hell with you!" Su Jiu'er burst out.
How could she accept being turned into a mere pawn in this game?
Without waiting for Zhou Weijun to react, Su Jiu'er had already lashed out with her Nine-section Whip, aiming at Yuan Shao.
Her body moved with agility, her silhouette tracing a beautiful arc as she appeared in front of Yuan Shao in a flash.
Yuan Shao didn't move, not even sparing Su Jiu'er a glance.
However, the seductive woman in front of Yuan Shao swiftly slapped out a palm.
Smack!
With a crisp sound, the slap landed directly on Su Jiu'er's face.
Su Jiu'er flew backward, her face burning as if it was on fire.
Ye Guichen stepped forward, catching Su Jiu'er, and looking down at her face: "Fire Cloud Palm?"
A clear five-finger mark appeared on Su Jiu'er's face, but unlike an ordinary palm print, it seemed to have a corrosive effect.
Su Jiu'er only felt excruciating pain, as if ants were biting at her face.
She cried out in pain, cursing non-stop: "Bitch, how dare you hit me!"
Ye Guichen held down the furious Su Jiu'er, shouting in a low voice: "Your attacker's hand had Fire Bug poison. Don't move, or your face will be ruined."
Upon hearing this, Su Jiu'er froze.
At such a beautiful age, especially for a girl, the thought of her face being ruined was worse than death.
Su Jiu'er immediately nestled in Ye Guichen's arms like a shy little bird.
Ye Guichen quickly sealed Su Jiu'er's acupoints, then took out a Dragon and Phoenix Revitalizing Pill from his pocket.
Fortunately, there were still three of these pills left; otherwise, Su Jiu'er's face would indeed be ruined.
Ye Guichen quickly ground the pill into powder, spat on it a few times, and then applied it to Su Jiu'er's injured area.
Su Jiu'er felt nauseous: "What are you doing?"
"Stop complaining. If you don't want to be disfigured, just behave!" Ye Guichen's voice brooked no argument.
Su Jiu'er instantly didn't dare to move.
As the ointment was applied and rubbed in for a few moments, Su Jiu'er felt a soothing coolness on her face, so comfortable that she couldn't help but let out a moan, making several of the men present agitated.
Ye Guichen, with black lines forming on his forehead, finally released Su Jiu'er after rubbing in the medicine, then walked over to Zhou Weijun and took the blunt knife from his hand: "Yuan Shao, I'll play your game with you."
Yuan Shao was slightly startled, but looked at Ye Guichen with great interest: "You managed to counter Fire Bug poison?"
The Fire Bug was a highly toxic creature, similar to a firefly.
Its body had a glow that could corrode human skin.
The seductive woman at Yuan Shao's side had clearly applied this glowing poison to her hand, and when she slapped Su Jiu'er, it poisoned her.
The toxicity was unexpected, and few could escape it.
Seeing that the medicine Ye Guichen made, although a bit disgusting, was indeed causing Su Jiu'er's scar to heal, Yuan Shao showed an interested expression.
"Brother Ye, you want to play with me?" Yuan Shao looked playfully at Ye Guichen, disregarding the almost unconscious Liu Ruyi who had lost much blood.
Ye Guichen pointed at the seductive woman: "Yes. Since you want to play such a tormenting game, I'll play with you. But I don't want to use my people, let's use her."
"Looking for death!" The seductive woman, Huo Yi, was furious.
As a subordinate of Master Five, secretary-general of Azure Dragon Commerce, she held a respected position. Though merely an enforcer on this trip with Yuan Shao, she never considered the locals of Yun City a threat. Now, to be challenged by an ant was infuriating.
"Let's see if you have what it takes!" With a swift movement, Huo Yi's lithe form shot out towards Ye Guichen.
At the same time, the glow in her hands gleamed like starlight, scattering poison dust towards Ye Guichen.
Those were all Fire Bug poison powders.
Ye Guichen sneered.
How could a mere poison harm him?
"One thrust." Ye Guichen didn't evade, thrusting the blunt knife directly.
Stab!
With the sound of tearing flesh, Huo Yi flew backward.
She looked down in terror, staring at her abdomen.
Both the cut and its location mirrored the wound Yuan Shao inflicted on Liu Ruyi.
Even more horrifying was the poison powder she had spread, now all concentrated in her own wound.
The corrosive sensation ravaged her.
Huo Yi screamed, quickly drawing a sharp knife to cut away the poisoned skin.
"Who are you?" Huo Yi was genuinely terrified.
Though not as powerful as Huo Liao, she perfected the poison powder technique, able to hold her own against top warriors.
But just now, in a single encounter, Ye Guichen had injured her and poisoned her with her own powder.
Yuan Shao's mouth twitched, yet he maintained a calm facade: "Haha, Brother Ye, you have truly surprised me! However, just now you lost!"
As he spoke, Yuan Shao pointed at Huo Yi: "She screamed, which means she lost according to our rules."
