Return of the Immortal Emperor Daddy-Chapter 221 Reap What You Sow

The Arrow King came from a poor background, but no matter how hard or tiring life became, he never once complained or cried. His father had placed all his hopes on him, and in his wife’s eyes, he was the best man in the world.

But at this moment, tears glimmered in his weather-beaten eyes. He wasn’t afraid of death, but he feared that after he died, his father and wife would suffer and be tortured to death.

He closed his eyes, shouting silently in his heart. Father, wife, I’m not strong enough. I was careless. I don’t have the power to save you.

BOOM!

Suddenly, a loud sound echoed out, but the Arrow King felt no pain. He involuntarily opened his eyes, only to see the previously smug Five Poisons Child now eating dirt, sprawled face-first on the ground.

Seeing this, the Arrow King was shocked. What just happened?

Normally, no one dared to approach within ten meters of the Five Poisons Child. The only way to kill him was with a long-range attack. But now, he had actually been kicked, and a clear footprint was imprinted on his flaccid face.

The Five Poisons Child scrambled up, disheveled. He couldn’t believe someone had gotten within ten meters of him completely unscathed, much less kicked him before he could even react. Horrified, he looked behind the Arrow King and saw three figures standing there. The leader was a handsome young man, a fact that made the Five Poisons Child burn with envy. The young man was currently rubbing his foot on the nearby herbs, clearly disgusted by how filthy his opponent was. This only infuriated the Five Poisons Child further.

"I never thought someone would come to save me." Seeing this, the Arrow King couldn’t help but smile. He had thought he was surely going to die and that his father and wife wouldn’t survive this time. He never imagined someone would suddenly show up.

Lan Zhengxiong was completely drained of strength. Xia Qian walked up to him and said, "Uncle Lan, I’m Xia Qian. Don’t worry. With him here, everything will be fine."

Lan Zhengxiong nodded but was still worried. The Five Poisons Child was not so easy to deal with.

Wu Tian glanced at the Five Poisons Child and couldn’t help but spit. Ever since being transformed into a Poison Gu in his childhood, the man had never once taken a bath. His poison was not only cruel but also reeked to high heaven. Wu Tian really didn’t want to fight him.

The Five Poisons Child felt his face might have been kicked askew, but it didn’t matter. He didn’t care about his appearance because, in his view, he was still a cute little baby even if he was disfigured. Looking at Wu Tian, he said, "You’re so mean! I’m still a child, how could you treat me like this?"

Poisonous gas spread through the air, making it murky as it drifted toward Wu Tian. But the next moment, the Five Poisons Child’s eyes nearly popped out of his head in shock. Wu Tian opened his mouth and blew. A fierce gust of wind instantly swept out, dispersing the poisonous gas without a trace.

"This is impossible!" the Five Poisons Child exclaimed in disbelief. "A breath of air creating wind? Is this... is this the Martial Path?"

He wasn’t the only one who found it unbelievable; the Arrow King was just as incredulous. He had always thought the most formidable person in the city was his sworn brother, the Sword Emperor. When his sword was drawn, ten thousand swords would bow in submission. How majestic! But the Arrow King had to admit that even the Sword Emperor could never pull off what this young man had just done.

Wu Tian looked coldly at the Five Poisons Child.

The little guy, who usually loved a good fight, simply shook her head in disgust and buried her face in Xia Qian’s chest. She was afraid Wu Tian would ask her to fight the Five Poisons Child. He was too disgusting. He was clearly ancient, yet he still claimed to be a child. The little guy felt like she might vomit up last night’s dinner.

Wu Tian didn’t want to dirty his own hands either. The Five Poisons Child seemed to understand this. He wasn’t sad; instead, he burst into excited laughter. "Kill me! Come on, kill me! Who among you dares to kill me?"

"You ignorant fool..." Wu Tian sneered coldly. "You’ve been raising the Five Poisons on your body. Fine. Then you can die by the hands of your beloved poisons."

The Five Poisons Child didn’t understand what Wu Tian meant. The next moment, Wu Tian snapped his fingers.

CLICK!

Now the Five Poisons Child realized what Wu Tian was doing: trying to command the poisonous creatures on his body to turn on him.

"Hahaha, you’re killing me!" he burst into hideous laughter. "These creatures aren’t human! How could they be so easily hypnotized? You think you can kill me like this? Wishful thinking!"

The Five Poisons are scorpions, venomous snakes, centipedes, toads, and spiders.

First, the scorpions on his body suddenly turned fierce. Their venomous tails shot up sharply, and before the Five Poisons Child could react, they began to frantically sting him.

"Ah!"

The smile vanished from the Five Poisons Child’s face as pain swept over him, distorting his features. "How... how could this happen? My precious scorpions, how could you betray me?"

However, this was just the beginning. Venomous snakes coiled around him. One by one, they flicked their tongues and sank their fangs into his flesh. "No!" he screamed, but the snakes paid him no mind. The pain nearly made the Five Poisons Child faint.

"No, I was wrong! I was wrong, spare me!" Only then did the Five Poisons Child realize just what kind of entity he had offended. He groveled, but Wu Tian remained unmoved.

The centipedes also attacked furiously, and his screams grew louder and more piercing than those of a pig being slaughtered. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

Now, the toads saw his mouth agape, and they began jumping inside one by one. Powerless, he could only watch helplessly as toad after toad jumped into his mouth. His face was a mask of horror; he had never imagined this day would come.

With the poisonous toads in his belly, the Five Poisons Child felt as if rivers and seas were churning inside him. He was in agony, but his body was so corroded by venom that he couldn’t move at all.

At this moment, the venomous spiders, which were usually the most obedient, also opened their mouths and bit down on him.

The Five Poisons Child, his body a vessel of venom, was being tormented to death by the very poisons he had nurtured. Soon, he could no longer speak.

Why is this happening? Aren’t we good friends? How could you betray me? Heibai was better... He... he would just chat with me and tell me I wasn’t an aberration, that I wasn’t a monster. Heibai said that if I did this one thing for him, I could meet him. I... I don’t want to die.

He died with his eyes wide open, full of regret. He hated himself for being so useless. This was the only thing Heibai had ever asked of him, yet he, the Five Poisons Child, had failed. He had desperately wanted to know if Heibai was male or female, tall or short, fat or thin, but now he would never have the chance.

As the Five Poisons Child died, his corpse instantly decayed, melting into a puddle of toxic fluid.

"This is bad... This is very bad." Seeing this, Lan Zhengxiong should have been happy, but his face was filled with panic. "Now we’re really done for."
