Chapter 390: All the Drugs
"What is it you want?" Virsair stubbornly asked but appeared ready to refuse even if his life depended on it.
"That spiral ring on your finger that holds all your pills," said Lilith crossing her arms, "I want them all... all the drugs!"
"The hell is wrong with this generation? Is that what divine pills are called now? I will give you cultivation pills, or are you looking for something... more?"
Why does it feel like I\'m making a drug deal? Do drug cartels exist here, or are the sects doing the same?
"What you got?" Lilith shamelessly asked, grinning from ear to ear, "Cultivation pills and potions are nice, but you got any psychedelics or something to calm the mind and body?"
"Like Rivane? The Celestial Palace has a monopoly over that. Not even I dare to sell it outside the Celestrial Outreach, but I do have—"
"I want them all?" Lilith shouted before she could even get a picture as to what she was asking for as if this was normal, yet as I glanced around at the masses watching with an odd gleam, I knew it was not. This girl is crazy!
"What are you offering?" Virsair asked, appearing a little conflicted. It was probably his first time dealing like this.
"My identity, or we can help get you a sample of blood from this silver dragon."
"Both for divine level pills," He said with a lustful grin, "Bring me a blood sample or its head, and I will apply divinity to these pills."
"Why don\'t you kill it then?" I inquired, not understanding what was stopping him from acting himself.
"It was to find a disciple or at least a helpful cultivator who could gather ingredients all around Alos for me. Using sects can be dangerous; Plus, it\'s quite frowned upon for a god-like myself to hunt such weak dragons like this."
Scrunching my brow at the foolish reason, I was about to reply when Lilith\'s voice resounded, "Gods tend not to be very practical. They live so long they have these games to relieve boredom. It\'s quite normal for them to do things like this."
Humming in response, Lilith simply nodded, raising her hands while Virsair pulled a ring out of space. Placing it into her hands, his body suddenly staggered as Lilith qi touched Virsair\'s saggy flesh.
Staring at her in shock, he trembled, taking a step back, "I-I-I."
"We wish for privacy, and no one knows we are here. I would hope you will not report this," Lilith informed, handing me the ring with a straight face, "As for his Identity, well, let\'s just say it will remain a mystery."
"What of your to-be husband? There were rumors."
"That fucker? I have already dealt with him," I informed with a sinful smile that didn\'t quite reach my eyes, "Soulbender or not, he did not last long."
Widening his eyes, Virsair trembled, "You didn\'t!"
"He is still alive, but his mind all but gone. He is nothing more than a simpleton now. Are you telling me that—"
\'Abaddon, you are saying too much," Lilith cunningly informed.
"Is it? But I think my point is clear, don\'t you think Pill Master, Virsair?"
"Y-yes quit right, young master." He frightfully said, lowering his head to the shock of everyone.
I did not think Lilith being from the royal family would garner so much respect and fear. It would seem Tang Feng did something right.
"Than we shall be on our way," I declared, placing the ring Lilith had given me onto my finger. Making my way past the pill maker, Lilith followed behind with a cheeky smile.
Seeing no one foolish enough to attack, we quickly arrived upon the base of the trail, sensing a tyrannical sword intent trying to invade our bodies. I quickly frowned in response as the darkness protected my mighty form. Lilith, however, seemed fine, as her sword intent shimmered around her body, neglecting foreign sword qi from entering.
"you think that was wise?" I asked, reaching a safe distance.
"You underestimate the power grandfather, and the Current Celestrial Master holds. Fear is but one way to win your subjects. All the people of Alos, gods included, pray to the celestial king. They have been brainwashed to the point that it\'s natural."
"That may be true, but there is always a traitor."
"That maybe so, but you think it matters? Are you not a prince? Don\'t tell me you\'re afraid?" She mocked as if to get a rise out of me for some reason, "Or did you also forget we have a small set of members of Vaevictis currently? They are just outside the Celestrial City within a place called the Celestrial Outreach."
Lifting my lips, I chose not to speak; it didn\'t really matter along as Nox did not find us. If they knew where I was, then so did the devils, and I did not need another trial in my life.
Walking up the mountain in silence, I slowly noticed the odd abundance of people ahead of us. Figuring these were some men and women who did not bother to watch our battle, Lilith and I went seemingly unnoticed aside from a few shrewd stares at my wife; no one bothered to approach us.
However, the longer we began to travel, the more I felt the Sword Intent surrounding this mountain beginning to grow. At first, its presence was not worthy of my attention, but as the sands of time trickled, the passive darkness around me began to struggle against this mighty intent.
Witnessing an ethereal glow rising from the earth like a cloud of transparent smoke, the sword intent began to grow denser the longer we walked. It was not long after the domineering intent tore through the darkness into my flesh. However, facing my heavenly body, a combination of Body and Qi, I ignored its presence, attempting to dig into my flesh.
"HALT! BY ORDER OF THE CRIMSON CORES!" A loud, raging voice commanded as Lilith, and I came upon a mid-size crowd of people who were dressed like Va\'an who\'s Lilith blade cut down.
Quickly taking note of the woman who had acted like a bitch from before, I smiled at the odd coincidence. She was not that attractive or powerful, but here she was standing like a queen who everyone somehow owed at the back of the crowd.
"It\'s her," Lilith muttered in bewilderment.
"think I will get lucky?" I asked as a joke.
"I think I have a better chance," she said, playing along. "Wanna make a deal to see who can get her first?"
A little taken back, I slightly nodded, "Fine, but do not be mad if I sever her head if I\'m about to lose."
