114: Poisonous little boy

"I'm back." Tang Ping closed his eyes and meticulously recalled the Nanchuan Province dungeon.

The glazed flame crystal and purple light golden sun tree, two ultimate treasures, would both be available after a month, and with the Great Emperor Moth serving as a flying mount, time wasn't particularly pressing.

Besides, he remembered that in a mountain village in North Ridge, there was also a dungeon.

Named the "Cursed Poison dungeon," it was a Poison Corpse dungeon, but within it was a poison-type ultimate treasure.

With this item, he might be able to make his Gu worm's Talent break through to S-rank!

Thinking of Gu worms, Tang Ping remembered that he still had a level four Gu worm that hadn't hatched yet.

He opened the Five Poisons Nest and found that this Gu worm still hadn't hatched.

But for Tang Ping, this was good news, because since the Gu worm hadn't hatched from its pupa yet, it might offer an unexpected surprise if it could be added to that poison-type ultimate treasure in the form of a special item.

At this moment, although three days had passed for Tang Ping in the future, he had only just parted ways with Tao Yumian, whose Shelter was also Level Three and located right next door.

Thinking of Tao Yumian, Tang Ping couldn't help but think of that peach tree.

He didn't know the specific situation very well due to his low strength, but he clearly witnessed the killing of that mysterious Heavenly King and the confrontation with that jade mountain.

In other words, after a hundred years of growth in the core area of the restricted zone, that sacred spirit peach tree had grown to an incredibly terrifying extent, even allowing Tao Yumian to reach the Titled Rank through its feedback.

Of course, perhaps Tao Yumian herself was extraordinary.

At the very least, to reach that level, besides her innate Sacred Spirit, her own Talent would definitely not be lower than S-rank, or even higher!

After all, that was within the core restricted zone; for others, ultimate treasures were mere aspirations, but in Tao Yumian's eyes, they might just be readily available items.

Recalling Tao Yumian's sacred spirit peach tree, Tang Ping felt another wave of anticipation.

This time returning to the future, there was no record of the sacred spirit peach tree, but last time, there were very detailed records.

After all, last time, Tao Yumian had established a Safe Zone.

The power and function of the sacred spirit peach tree also astonished and coveted countless people.

It's estimated that this time, Tao Yumian truly carved out a paradise in the restricted zone.

Yu Jiaqi was very likely taken in there later.

Of course, right now, Tao Yumian had only just arrived at the foot of North Ridge.

At this time, although North Ridge had already shown its extraordinary nature, it was far from being the restricted zone it would be in the future, and there were no numerous Beast Kings, let alone Beast Emperors comparable to the Titled Rank!

"This afternoon, I'll enter North Ridge and first go to that Cursed Poison dungeon to retrieve that poison-type ultimate treasure."

Before afternoon arrived, a small boy ran to his door, clutching his clothes, standing pitifully.

"Brother, big brother, can you give me something to eat?" The little boy lowered his head, tears falling drop by drop.

But in his downcast eyes, there was confusion and madness, and his clenched palm was as black as ink.

His moving lips seemed to be silently calling two words: "little sister."

The Gu worms on Tang Ping's body stirred restlessly, and he immediately knew that the little boy in front of him was not simple.

His gaze instantly turned cold.

The Ghost Spider Gu in his hair slowly crawled down.

He prepared to let this Gu worm kill the little boy.

No matter why the other party came, as long as he dared to appear before him and harbored murderous intent, there was no need for mercy.

The Ghost Spider Gu could not only interfere with and control a person's mind, but it also spun an extremely tough spider silk that could easily cut through metal and stone.

Although Tang Ping didn't know why the little boy in front of him made his Gu worms uneasy, he was sure that this was just an ordinary person who hadn't awakened his Talent, meaning he didn't have a Shelter.

Most likely, he had consumed some kind of plant or something that caused his body to mutate.

The Ghost Spider Gu slowly crawled out of the Shelter, and its tough spider silk enveloped the area around the little boy.

If the little boy took two steps, he would definitely collapse like building blocks.

But just as Tang Ping was about to call the little boy over, his gaze fell on a few peach blossoms petals.

Those soft and weak peach blossoms petals easily cut through his spider silk.

Tang Ping immediately frowned.

Clearly, Tao Yumian had made a move.

He felt that Tao Yumian shouldn't be such a kind person, and with her sacred spirit peach tree, she would definitely have noticed the little boy's abnormality.

At this moment, the opposite window opened, and Tao Yumian quietly drank her milk tea.

"I plan to live in North Ridge from now on anyway.

This little boy is good.

Let him stay and keep me company."

Tang Ping pondered for a moment and replied, "This little boy is a bit strange; there might be danger."

Tao Yumian chuckled, "He ate something before that filled his body with potent poison, but to me, it poses no threat whatsoever."

Potent poison?

Tang Ping's heart skipped a beat as he looked at the little boy.

Somehow, he thought of the mysterious powerful individual from the future who was impaled by a peach tree branch.

Wasn't that person killed by Tao Yumian?

At this moment, Tang Ping couldn't help but wonder if she really killed him, or if it was a pretense?

Or perhaps, she tricked the Old Days Society?

Tang Ping naturally couldn't investigate these matters, but since Tao Yumian had spoken, he didn't stop her.

"Alright, this little boy is a bit dangerous, but as long as you're confident, that's fine."

"Mm." Tao Yumian pointed her finger, and a peach blossom floated out, landing on the little boy's forehead.

It eventually formed a peach blossom mark.

The little boy's originally confused and frantic eyes suddenly gradually cleared.

This little boy didn't seem foolish.

He quickly understood from the previous events that he had been used again.

Originally, he wasn't always in a state of confused madness; he would occasionally regain clarity.

However, he was helpless about the things he did when he was confused.

All of this stemmed from a black, cherry-like fruit.

There were two of those fruits; he ate one, and his little sister ate the other.

After his little sister ate it, she turned into a puddle of pus.

Although he didn't die, he went mad after seeing that puddle of pus.

At this moment, he felt completely clear-headed, but thinking of his tragically dead little sister, his heart still ached.

His little sister was only seven years old and died because of a fruit, not even leaving behind bones.

Tang Ping, on the other hand, watched Tao Yumian effortlessly enslave someone with a casual peach blossom, and his heart was even more chilled.

Tao Yumian's sacred spirit peach tree was even more powerful than he had imagined!

Tao Yumian's serene and lazy voice rang out, "Are you willing to follow me?"

The little boy looked twelve or thirteen, very naive, but the apocalypse had forced him to mature.

His gaze gradually focused from confusion and pain.

"I, I am willing."

Not far away, two men watched this side.

Because the distance was a bit far, they didn't know exactly what happened.

"Damn it, are these two heartless, not coming out after all this time!"

"Wait a little longer.

It's just a child asking for some food.

I see both of them have very kind faces; they'll definitely come out and give some."

"Thank you for the compliment.

Would you like some too?"

"No, thank you." The skinny man instinctively spoke, then suddenly, he froze.

Who was talking to him?

Then, he tried to turn his head, but found that his head had already turned, and not only had it turned, it had flown up!

"So, my head fell off."
