Chapter 4003
"Not running anymore, I see? Why'd you stop?"
"This is karma, Veron Lange. You betrayed the Sect Master and attacked him unwarned, and now you have nowhere to run! This is the price you have to pay, serves you right!11
"That's right! Follow US back, and face the sentence the Sect Master will impose on you!"
The mocks of the crowd rang on and on. Veron's face flooded with indignance and rage.
She bit her lip, facing the crowd of Five Poison Sect disciples. Coldly, she threw out, "I betrayed Skylar Blanc? He killed my mother. That is nigh unforgivable. I was doing him a favor just now by sparing his life."
"Going back with the lot of you? I'd rather die before that happens! It
With a flash, Veron charged into the crowd.
"Surround her!"
"Yes, let's ambush her all at once!"
Seeing Veron still daring to retaliate at this point, the disciples began battling with her with a loud cry.
It was still manageable for Veron at first, but that quickly changed.
The disciples were beginning to lose their patience as well. F*ck, there were so many of them up against one woman and still taking this long. How shameful!
"This won't do, let's use the poison bug!"
Someone had shouted out amidst the kerfuffle. Everyone seemed to agree with it, each of them retrieving a large spider from their bodies and throwing it in Veron's direction.
The spiders were the size of a fist and dark red in color. They bore the shape of a crescent on their backs.
The spider was called the Blood Widow, a venomous insect only found in the Five Poison Sect. The Five Poison Sect were the most well-versed with venom, and that was no different with housing venomous creatures. Every venomous creature they housed was terrifying enough to bring about fear in the nation, especially the Blood Widow. It was considered to be one of the most evil creatures.
One bite from the Blood Widow was enough to send its venom along the veins of the heart, spreading it through the entire body. It could even affect one’s psyche, causing them to lose their mind.
It was safe to say that the Blood Widow was sufficiently terrifying.
Veron's eyes blazed with further fury at the sight before her.
These Five Poison Sect disciples had truly gone too far, using venomous insects to compensate for their own incompetence.
These spiders were nothing but evil, it was deathly important to proceed with caution.
As Veron grumbled to herself, the Blood Widows let out a series of hisses. Venom flew from their fangs as they pounced.
At the oncoming attack, Veron had no choice but to call upon her long saber, she slashed left and right, blocking the oncoming attacks of the Blood Widows.
As a member of the Hidden Hero Sect, Veron was more than skilled with swords. The Blood Widows had no chance at latching on under the twirl of her long saber. Yet eventually her strength began to dwindle, and Veron's hand began to slow down.
Finally, a few Blood Widows saw the opportunity and pounced from behind. One of them landed on Veron's back, sinking its fangs into the juncture of her shoulder as it spread its venom.
In an instant, Veron felt her mind draw a complete blank. A numbness began to travel through her body.
Crap!
Veron gulped, knowing she had been poisoned. She glared around her with rage, wrenching off the few Blood Widows on her. Yet her body had begun to tremble, and she could hardly hold herself upright.
"Ha ha..."
The surrounding disciples were victorious at last, cackling with glee.
"You've been poisoned by the Blood Widow, Veron Lange! Any moment now and you'll drop!"
