The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 728

"No!" Black suddenly exclaimed.

Startled, White's heart skipped a beat and he asked, "What happened?"

"When The Spirit Cat was chasing us earlier, I lost the antidotes. They're not in my bag," Black confessed, looking a tad sheepish.

Hearing that, White's face turned as green as a sour apple. Anger flashing in his eyes, he almost couldn't believe what he was hearing. "What do you mean, 'no antidote'? You're saying it's gone? It's not in your bag?"

Black turned his gold-trimmed bag inside out, pointed to the empty interior, and confirmed, "Yeah. Lost it. They're all gone. Not a single one left."

"No antidote, what am I supposed to do now?" White panicked.

"Don't worry, bro. You might be poisoned, but I let out so much blood, you won't die just yet. If we keep draining your blood, you can live for at least three more days," Black explained earnestly.

"I can live for three more days?" White rolled his eyes dramatically and asked with a heavy dose of sarcasm, "And then what? You gonna whip up an antidote in three days to save me?"

"Creating an antidote here in Purple Gold Hill isn't easy. It's almost impossible within three days. However, as long as the poison hasn't reached your bones, I can keep you alive beyond that," Black stated matter-of-factly.

Unsatisfied with the response, White asked with a grim expression, "And what if the poison gets into my bones? What then?"

"Even if the poison seeps into your bones, it's not the end of the world. If that happens, it means your bones are poisoned and will need to be removed."

"What do you mean?" White inquired.

"His bones may be a bit tainted, but they're still human bones and a bit better than dog bones. Given our situation, it’s not the worst option. I guess I'll have to make do with his bones!"

Their conversation amused Daniel.

"Hehe!"

First, Daniel let out a snort of laughter, then asked flatly, "Do you two even hear yourselves? Aren't you forgetting to ask if I agree to this madness?"

"What does it matter if you agree or not? Do you think you, a country bumpkin, even have a choice? If I decide to take your bones, you'll just have to lie there and let me do it. You can't put up any resistance—because you don't have the strength to resist."
