Poisonous!

Buttface was rarely reliable, but this time he had proved true to his word.
He hadn’t just been boasting. He had really made a round trip. Now he took Xu Que and the rest of the group and they followed the trail of the Divine Farmer Clan.
Even though the members of the Divine Farmer Clan had set up Concealing Arrays that erased their tracks, Buttface could see through their spells and followed the tracks. He easily managed to find the other group.
At this moment, Xu Que and his companions were hiding in the forest, and they were using the Divine Aperture’s Shell to conceal themselves thoroughly, while they observed everything from a high place.
The Divine Farmer Clan members were proceeding carefully, while setting Spell Arrays and erasing their traces. They also had two Taiyi Celestials who were observing the surroundings to make sure no strangers showed up.
Their soul’s detection scope was very broad, and, if Xu Que and his companions hadn’t used the Divine Aperture’s Shell, they would have been discovered long ago.
“Ha, ha, we have searched high and low, and yet we haven’t found our objective. However, since they are being so careful, it’s obvious that they are heading for the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines’ farmland,” Duan Jiude’s eyes lit up and he smiled as he spoke excitedly.
“He, he, bet you all didn’t believe you could depend on my wisdom? I figured this out long ago, and that was why I ran ahead to look for those people. In the end, I managed to find them easily.” Buttface looked very happy. He was proud of himself!
Duan Jiude cast a glance at him, sneered coldly, and said, “What wisdom do the likes of you have? If you weren’t afraid of a beating, you wouldn’t have gotten so lucky. You just found them by chance, didn’t you?”
“F*ck! Duan Jiude, are you looking down on me?” Buttface shouted loudly.
“It’s fine, don’t cause a scene. Don’t you two think you’re being childish? Is there any reason to argue like this?”
Xu Que frowned and shouted at Buttface and Duan Jiude. Then he added, “Buttface, even though you have made a contribution, you can’t take the credit for it all by yourself, can you? He, he, if I didn’t take out a knife to scare you, you wouldn’t have run away and ended up running across them by chance. As a matter of fact, everything was part of my plan,which I decided on long ago. I used a knife to scare you so that you could go to find a path for us.”
“F*ck!” Duan Jiude and Buttface opened their eyes wide. They were both left speechless!
Nothing could be done about this, as such shamelessness was a brand-new cultivation stage.
“Fine, you should all calm down for a moment. It seems like this group of people is approaching us.” At this moment, Liu Jingning interrupted the Wicked Trio’s debate and pointed in a certain direction.
Sure enough! The Divine Farmer Clan members weren’t just setting up Spell Arrays, they were even changing their direction as they proceeded onward. At this moment, they were approaching Xu Que’s group’s location.
“F*ck! Have they discovered us?” Buttface cried out in alarm.
“I don’t think that’s the case. The entrance to their cultivation land is probably in our vicinity,” Mo Junchen examined the situation for a moment before he spoke.
Xu Que agreed with this opinion.
It didn’t seem from the expressions on the faces of the Divine Farmer Clan group that they had discovered anything disturbing, and they still proceeded at the same pace while setting up Spell Arrays. It seemed to have just been a coincidence that they were approaching.
In the end, the Divine Farmer Clan group stopped about halfway up the mountain, when there were only several hundred yards between them and Xu Que’s location. They were quite close to each other!
“Well! Why have they stopped there? It doesn’t seem as if there are any entrances there.” Buttface was confused.
Xu Que frowned. He was also slightly confused!
What Buttface had said was correct. It didn’t seem that there were any entrances in the middle of the mountain. Moreover, it would be impractical to make an entrance there, as it would be difficult to hide.
Suddenly, at this moment, the Divine Farmer Clan people sat down in the middle of the mountain.
One of guardians at the peak of the Golden Celestial Stage spoke, “We have made thorough preparations, and we now must wait for sunset to reveal the entrance. We will be able to see it from our current location.”
As he spoke, the guardian looked at the young men, and his gaze fell upon a handsome man who had the most outstanding appearance. He said, “Yi Fang, since the clan has entrusted the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines’ harvest mission to us, then it’s obvious that they have put their faith in you. So, you shouldn’t make any mistakes. If everything goes smoothly, the Divine Son’s position will surely belong to you.”
The handsome man revealed a faint smile. “Understood! Since I have invited two elders to travel with us, we are absolutely safe. The siblings, Yi Zhong and Yi Dan, were too haughty and provoked someone who shouldn’t have been offended. They ended up throwing their live away in vain. I’m not as stupid as they were.”
“It’s fine as long as you understand this. The Divine Son position has a great significance, and the struggle over it is quite intense. But since the siblings, Yi Zhong and Yi Dan, died, you now have the highest odds of success. But you still mustn’t treat this matter lightly,” the guardian added.
Yi Fang curled the corners of his mouth into a sneer. “You can relax, once I take the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines back to the clan, I will start carrying out a plan to deal with Xu Que’s father. Everyone in the clan and in the outside world seem afraid of the power of Xu Que’s father, but they all don’t know that our Divine Farmer Clan inheritance that has been passed down for so many years includes not just elixirs but also poisons. Even if Xu Que’s father is a Celestial King or some higher being, he will still surely die once he falls into our trap.”
SIGH! “Even though your plan is pretty good, and you will manage to surely get the Divine Son’s poison to deal with Xu Que’s father, but…” As the guardian spoke, his gaze fell upon the woman next to Yi Fang, and he shook his head. He asked, “Is it worth it?”
Upon hearing this, the woman lowered her head and kept her silence.
A very faint hesitation flashed in Yi Fang’s eyes, before he gritted his teeth. He said, “It’s worth it!”
Then the group kept their silence once again.
Xu Que’s group that was hiding in the Divine Aperture’s Shell atop a mountain peak also got to hear this discussion, and they were bewildered by it.
They had been sure that this group of people had come to harvest the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines, and that the entrance to the vines would only be revealed through some special methods. However, Xu Que and his companions had been bewildered by what else they had heard.
“Lad, it seems like they want to use poison to kill you,” Buttface looked at Xu Que and spoke.
“I’m quite curious about this matter. The Divine Farmer Clan unexpectedly has poison that can work against a Celestial King or a being at a higher stage. But they still didn’t say enough about this matter. Even if they possessed a powerful poison, how would they approach a Celestial King or a being at a higher stage?” Duan Jiude frowned and expressed his confusion.
There was obviously a great disparity in power, and this was why it was extremely difficult to poison a Celestial King or a being at a higher stage. Where did these people get such great confidence?
“Kiddo, is it possible that it’s them who will cause your assured death after 40-plus days.” At this moment, Liu Jingning raised a question.
Xu Que also came back to his senses, after being dazed for a moment.
“Is it possible? Will I die after 40-plus days from these people’s poison?
“It’s quite unlikely. Since I know that they will try to harm me, I surely won’t let them near me. So, how would it be possible for them to attack me after 40-plus days?
As Xu Que thought of this matter, he shook his head.
Such a possibility was quite small. After all, even if he hadn’t gotten to know the prophecy, he still wouldn’t feel threatened by the Divine Farmer Clan members. This was why the danger he was going to face was probably not related to the Divine Farmer Clan.
At this moment, the Divine Farmer Clan people started talking once again.
“Little sister, did you make up your mind?” A youngster looked at the only young woman present in the group and questioned her in a low voice.
The woman nodded and still kept her silence.
When Yi Fang saw, he spoke calmly, “Little sister, you don’t have to worry about anything. Once we achieve this, the Divine Farmer Clan’s saint position will surely belong to you, and the only thing you have to do is to become the daughter-in-law of Xu Que’s father as soon as possible.”
