Chapter 1098: 496: Cultivation Breakthrough Again! Harmed Goufu!_2

...

After bidding farewell to Suo Mo and the little girl, Lanling began another day of hellish trials.

Today, his lead weights totaled six hundred pounds, and the deadwood sword in his hand also weighed six hundred pounds.

Altogether, the weight was twelve hundred pounds!

This weight pushed Lanling’s body to its absolute limit.

Thus, every day’s training was like hell!

Under Dina’s whip, Lanling once again ran in agony.

However, perhaps because Suo Mo had returned, and the little girl was home, Lanling’s body was in an excited state today. Despite the extreme burden, he gritted his teeth and endured it.

By eleven in the morning, he had completed half of the trial, and the number of times he reached the limit of pain was only nine.

Then came the wonderful time for hunting.

Over the span of five hours, Lanling hunted four wolves, three deer, five hares, and three wild pheasants!

His hunting skills left Dina absolutely stunned.

Unfortunately, ninety percent of this game had to be handed over to the tribe, and the remaining ten percent had to be given to the Foreign Tribe Army.

However, the leftover deer meat, hare meat, and pheasant meat were enough to feed the little girl and the young griffin for several days. The remaining pheasant feathers were enough to weave a small skirt for the little girl.

Lanling only drank the blood of the four wild wolves. While deer blood was highly nutritious, it was of no use to him.

At four in the afternoon, Lanling went to the lake to bathe. For the fox clan’s young wife Ali, Lanling no longer held out any hope.

But unexpectedly, at four-thirty, she actually appeared.

Seeing Lanling in the water, she suddenly jumped in and threw herself into his embrace.

...

Staring at the charming face of the woman, Lanling noticed that the bruises at the corners of her eyes were still visible.

"Did he hit you?" Lanling asked.

Ali nodded.

"Where did he hit you?" Lanling asked.

Ali said, "I protected my face, so he mainly kicked my back and my stomach. But my eye corner still got hit once."

Instantly, Lanling’s chest tightened. He then checked her heartbeat and pulse to see if she had suffered any internal injuries.

"I spat out three mouthfuls of blood at the time and couldn’t move. I thought I was going to die," Ali said. "But for some reason, three days later, I was fine."

"Because you wouldn’t let him touch you, he beat you?" Lanling asked, with a chilling murderous aura in his voice.

Ali nodded and said, "At the time, he was drunk. After he hit me, he became scared and called a Shaman to treat me. Goru said that even if I survived, I would have to stay in bed for a year to heal. But three days later, I was up and fine."

At this moment, Lanling became increasingly aware of the heaven-defying nature of his bloodline.

The second wife had become addicted, as if poisoned, after being with him.

And before him, the fox clan’s young wife Ali had also recovered from such severe internal injuries after being with him.

"Then why didn’t you come to see me afterward?" Lanling asked.

Ali said, "Because my eye was swollen, and I didn’t look good."

Lanling was instantly left speechless!

Ali said, "Originally, I planned to come in three more days. But I couldn’t hold back. My heart burned, my body felt restless. Love, you’ve surely poisoned my heart."

Lanling said, "Yes, even my soul is poisonous."

"Then poison me to death," Ali said softly. "I want to be with you forever. Goufu has started making moves on me again recently, trying to touch me. I want to destroy him so he’ll never touch me for the rest of his life."

"Have you made up your mind?" Lanling asked.

"I’ve made up my mind," Ali said.

Lanling took out a bottle of poison he had long prepared, a certain virus extracted from infected animals.

Ordinary skin contact was harmless, but once it touched mucous membranes, it would immediately cause rot, and it was almost incurable.

"When you do his laundry again, pour it into the water," Lanling said. "Remember, when you do this, wear leather gloves. The poison takes two days to activate. After he wears his pants for a day, make him change them immediately, then burn the pants to destroy the evidence."

"I’ll remember," Ali said. "Will this poison kill him?"

"No," Lanling said but added silently, "but it’ll make him suffer more than death."

Then Lanling said, "We shouldn’t meet here anymore. This place isn’t safe. Let’s find another location."

It was a secluded valley where the grass was softer.

The next day, when Lanling and Ali met at the valley, she told him she had already poisoned Goufu.

Her words were filled with unease and a hint of regret.

Lanling kissed her to comfort her and showered her with affection.

Soon, her unease dissipated.

"I am doing this for love. Besides, it was my husband who wronged me first," she kept telling herself over and over.

...

Two more days passed!

By now, it had been four full days since Suo Mo’s return.

In these four days, Lanling’s cultivation had broken through once again. His arm strength now exceeded nine hundred pounds, and he had advanced from a level-six Samurai to a level-seven Samurai!

However, these hellish trials were set to temporarily pause starting tomorrow.

Because tomorrow, the Chimera Tribe would begin assembling their army to go to war with the Wild Horse Tribe over the Falling Horse Mountain Range.

Lanling would also officially take up his post in the Foreign Tribe Army!

In the Foreign Tribe Army, rank depended entirely on strength. With Lanling now at level-seven Samurai, he was no longer a Squad Leader but a Vice-Centurion.

Previously, his cultivation ranked two hundredth in the entire Foreign Tribe Army. Now, he had soared within the top twenty, a meteoric rise.
