Chapter 28: The Beautiful Female Assassin

The moonlight was serene and tranquil.

Tuo Ba Ye's unease grew stronger; he had no heart for cultivation and walked to the back garden to enjoy the night scenery.

Under the bright moonlight, the flowers and plants in the back garden had a unique charm.

Suddenly, he sensed a shadow flash by and head towards the main courtyard.

This figure was extremely fast, invisible to the naked eye, and even the White Jade Lion Dragon was not alarmed. Beasts are far more sensitive than humans; the slightest breeze or rustle would alert them. The White Jade Lion Dragon, with its dragon bloodline, was among the best. If they did not notice, it showed how formidable the intruder was.

Tuo Ba Ye quickly used his divine sense to scan the area and found someone moving quickly, as if searching for something.

The person soon found their target, Xia Yuxuan, and avoided Xia Yun and the others, entering directly.

"There's an assassin!" Tuo Ba Ye shouted as he ran.

The figure moved silently, like a ghost, a true assassin.

Tuo Ba Ye's shout made Xia Yun and the others rush into Xia Yuxuan's room just as the assassin was about to strike.

"Do not harm the lady!" Xia Yun and the others attacked the assassin simultaneously.

If the assassin continued, they would die without a trace.

The assassin made a quick decision, dodged, and threw a black, sharp dart at Xia Yuxuan. The dart cut through the air with incredible speed, like a black lightning bolt.

If the dart hit, Xia Yuxuan would likely not survive.

Xia Yun and the others tried to help, but it was too late.

"Lady, be careful!"

Xia Yuxuan had just been startled awake and did not know what was happening when the dart was already in front of her.

At the critical moment, Tuo Ba Ye arrived and stood in front of Xia Yuxuan.

"Xiao Ye, no!" Xia Yuxuan shouted.

The dart pierced Tuo Ba Ye's chest, but his physical defense was astonishing; the dart only broke the skin and could not penetrate further.

"Mother, I'm fine!" Tuo Ba Ye said, then punched the assassin, knocking them unconscious.

He controlled his strength well, not killing the assassin, as he wanted to know who was behind the attack.

From these two incidents, he had some suspicions, but lacked concrete evidence.

After subduing the assassin, Tuo Ba Ye suddenly felt weak and dizzy: "Not good, it's poison!"

"Xiao Ye, are you okay?" Xia Yuxuan was extremely anxious.

Tuo Ba Ye remained calm: "Tie up the assassin and check if they have any antidote. I need to cultivate."

He did not dare to be careless and immediately began to cultivate to suppress the poison.

However, the poison was very potent, quickly spreading through his bloodstream and soon reaching every part of his body.

Tuo Ba Ye had no choice but to use his primordial energy to protect his vital organs to save his life.

Seeing Tuo Ba Ye's face turn pale and green, Xia Yuxuan was terrified: "Quick, find the antidote."

"Lady, the assassin is a woman, and she has nothing on her," Xia Yun said.

"Tie her up; she must not escape," Xia Yuxuan said loudly.

She muttered to herself: "Without an antidote, what can we do?"

She was at a loss, her mind in chaos.

Tuo Ba Ye tried several times to expel the poison, but each time his primordial energy approached, the poison disappeared. When he withdrew his energy, the poison reappeared.

He had no good solution and could only protect his vital organs.

"Mother, don't worry, I'm fine," Tuo Ba Ye smiled, not wanting Xia Yuxuan to worry.

"Good, I'm relieved," Xia Yuxuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, the Eight Dragon Guards and Zhan Meng were outside, not daring to barge in.

"Master, Lady, are you okay?" Long Yi asked.

Tuo Ba Ye said, "Come in, take the assassin to the training ground. I need to interrogate them later."

He turned to Xia Yuxuan and said, "Mother, rest well. There shouldn't be any more assassins. I need to cultivate to expel the poison."

"Xiao Ye, are you really okay? Can you expel the poison?" Xia Yuxuan was still worried.

"Don't worry, I'm fine," Tuo Ba Ye did not reveal the true situation, fearing Xia Yuxuan would worry.

They returned to the training ground, and Tuo Ba Ye found Tu Er Ye.

"Tu Er Ye, wake up. I'm poisoned. This poison is无形无影，非常厉害，无法逼出来。”Tuo Ba Ye said anxiously.

Tu Er Ye woke up, examined Tuo Ba Ye's body, and then experimented: "Tuo Ba Ye, I can't expel the poison either. How did you get such a strange poison?"

"There was an assassin trying to assassinate my mother. I blocked the attack and was grazed by a dart, which resulted in poisoning," Tuo Ba Ye sighed.

"This kind of poison has no antidote. It is usually a potent poison that some rare races are born with. It's quite a stroke of luck to encounter it," Tu Er Ye said with a smile.

Tuo Ba Ye smiled bitterly: "Tu Er Ye, I'm poisoned, and you call it luck!"

"Tuo Ba Ye, did you let the assassin escape?" Tu Er Ye asked.

"She's there, knocked out," Tuo Ba Ye said.

Tu Er Ye laughed: "If the assassin didn't escape, then there's no problem."

"Tu Er Ye, tell me directly how to cure the poison," Tuo Ba Ye was extremely anxious.

Having such a potent poison in his body, no one could feel at ease.

"Drink blood! Drink her blood, and you will be cured. Not only will it cure you, but the poison will also reside in your body, becoming your own potent poison. This innate poison can grow stronger, becoming more toxic as your strength increases. Of course, this requires a specific method. If the poison can grow with your strength, it will be easy to deal with opponents of the same level, and even those stronger than you," Tu Er Ye said.

"Master, I will draw the blood immediately," Long Yi said.

Tuo Ba Ye asked, "Tu Er Ye, how much blood do I need?"

"A few drops will do. If you drink more, the poison in your body will become stronger, becoming your innate potent poison," Tu Er Ye said.

"A few drops will do," Tuo Ba Ye thought about drinking blood and still felt some hesitation.

Tu Er Ye smiled: "Tuo Ba Ye, this is a great opportunity. If you only drink a few drops, the poison will be neutralized, and you will have no further connection with it. If you drink more, the poison will reside in your body, making you immune to all poisons and enhancing your strength."

Tuo Ba Ye hesitated for a moment and said, "Tu Er Ye, I trust you. Give me a bowl of blood, but remember not to harm her."

Cultivators, to enhance their strength, would use any means, even killing countless innocent people.

Tuo Ba Ye had an opportunity to obtain the innate potent poison of a mysterious race, and he did not want to miss it.

Having more strength means having more chances to save your life.

Tuo Ba Ye, having lived a lifetime, understood this very well.

"Master, the blood is here," Long Yi brought it over.

Tuo Ba Ye took the blood, closed his eyes, and drank it in one gulp.

The blood entered his body, and the poison quickly gathered, settling in the place where his primordial energy was stored.

Tuo Ba Ye tried to use his primordial energy to control the poison, and the poison indeed moved, following the flow of his energy.

"Tu Er Ye, I can control this innate potent poison," Tuo Ba Ye was extremely excited.

"Tuo Ba Ye, I must congratulate you. This is a great fortune. You should thank the assassin. However, few people know this method. Many strong individuals who are poisoned by innate potent poisons only face endless troubles. The most dangerous aspect of this poison is that it grows stronger, becoming increasingly difficult to deal with, ultimately leading to death," Tu Er Ye said with a smile.

Tuo Ba Ye was still shaken. Without Tu Er Ye's guidance, he would likely have died.

Not only was the poison neutralized, but he gained a powerful weapon, truly turning a disaster into a blessing.

However, Tuo Ba Ye could not be happy. The Treasure Tower had been facing constant troubles, and the mastermind behind it was becoming more brazen, making him furious.

The assassin was from a mysterious race, possessing an innate potent poison. Killing her would be a waste.

Tuo Ba Ye could not help but use his divine sense to check. He was surprised to find that the assassin had an exceptional talent, just like Zhan Meng, making her a rare talent in cultivation.

The assassin was a woman, around sixteen or seventeen years old, with a cultivation level of a Seven-Star Innate Martial God. Her body had a pure dark attribute, and with the innate potent poison, her talent surpassed Zhan Meng.

"Tuo Ba Ye, you must be reluctant to kill her, right?" Tu Er Ye laughed. "Such a beautiful woman, it would be a pity to kill her. Tsk tsk..."

The assassin had a well-proportioned and attractive figure, with a beautiful and charming face, like an angel's face and a devil's figure.

To be honest, Tuo Ba Ye had not noticed her beauty, but he did recognize her talent and had the idea of subduing her.

"Tu Er Ye, this assassin has great talent. If I could subdue her, it would be great. Do you have any ideas?" Tuo Ba Ye asked.

"Too bad you're a kid; otherwise, you could just take her into your harem," Tu Er Ye joked.

Long Yi and the others laughed, but Zhan Meng was confused.

Tuo Ba Ye said, "Tu Er Ye, I'm serious."

"To subdue her, you'll have to do it yourself. I won't get involved," Tu Er Ye closed his eyes to rest.

Tuo Ba Ye had no choice but to think of a way. He had no experience with women. His love in his past life was a childhood sweetheart, and their relationship developed naturally.

In his past life, he had not even interacted with other women for the sake of cultivation.

Subduing this assassin was a headache for him.

"Long Yi, how can I subdue her?" Tuo Ba Ye asked.

Long Yi shook his head: "I don't know."

The Eight Dragon Guards avoided Tuo Ba Ye's gaze, clearly unable to help. As for Zhan Meng, there was no hope.

Tuo Ba Ye estimated that the assassin was about to wake up, but he could not think of a good plan. He even did not want to face the female assassin.

"Master, let's go on patrol!" The Eight Dragon Guards left, and Zhan Meng was dragged away with them.

"Ouch... it hurts!" At this moment, the female assassin slowly woke up.
