In the private room, the members of the Imperial Fight Team were talking and laughing merrily.
Even with the addition of an outsider like Lu Feng, under the lead of Osler and Yu Feng, the entire atmosphere was still extraordinarily lively.
Joyful laughter continuously came from the room, audible even from the hallway.
However, one person seemed out of place.
Dugu Yan would turn her head from time to time to look at Lu Feng. This young man, who only drank juice and did not touch alcohol, had successfully caught her attention.
As the granddaughter of the Poison Douluo, no one had ever dared to speak so arrogantly in front of her.
Claiming to be the third-best poison master in the world?
Hmph, what a boast!
"Brother Tang Si, you must have come across many good things while gathering herbs in the forest, right? Do you have anything rare to show us and broaden our horizons?"
Dugu Yan spoke unhurriedly, her voice carrying a hint of an tone that brooked no refusal.
"Sigh." Yu Tianheng sighed silently to the side.
As Dugu Yan's suitor, he knew her temper all too well. Once she had set her mind on something, not even eight horses could pull her back.
"Hehe, I wouldn't really call them treasures. However, I do have quite a bit of scrap metal."
Lu Feng chuckled lightly and unhurriedly took out a small medicine bottle from his soul tool.
"Brother Tang Si, what is this thing?"
Osler reached out and took the small medicine bottle, examining it carefully.
"Brother Tang Si, what's written on this label of yours?"
"That's called Pinyin, a simplified script I created myself," Lu Feng said with a calm expression. "This is Datura. Just one sniff is enough to make a person sleep for a whole day."
Osler was about to uncork the bottle. Hearing Lu Feng's words, he quickly stopped his action.
"Phew~"
Osler patted his chest with lingering fear, then handed the bottle back to Lu Feng. "You didn't say something so important earlier. Good thing I reacted quickly."
Lu Feng smiled lightly, uncorked the bottle, and dripped a drop of Datura into the wine.
The Datura liquid was a pure white. The moment it dripped into the wine, a strange green color flashed, but then it disappeared in an instant.
A moment later, the entire glass of wine looked no different from before, as if nothing had happened.
The moment the green appeared, Osler's body trembled involuntarily, clearly startled.
"Amazing!"
Osler's eyes widened as he stared intently at the white wine in the glass, trying to find a single difference.
However, the glass of wine looked completely unchanged.
He moved closer to smell it and found that besides the smell of wine, there was indeed no other special odor.
"Brother Tang Si, is this medicine for sale? You can set any price you want, I'll take it!" Osler said with a broad smile.
His small eyes darted about, his thoughts unknown.
"It's not expensive, not expensive at all. If Brother Ao is interested, I'll sell it at the cost price of one hundred Gold Soul Coins."
Hearing this, Osler's face immediately lit up with a smile.
He carefully placed the medicine bottle into his soul tool, then deftly took out a money pouch from his soul tool and threw it to Lu Feng with a grin.
"Datura dissolves in water, is colorless and odorless. If ingested by mistake, it can make a person drowsy," Dugu Yan raised her head slightly, her arms crossed in front of her chest, and explained with a confident expression.
"Brother Tang, why does your Datura produce a green pigment? Isn't that very easy for people to detect?" Dugu Yan's lips curled up as she asked with a sneer.
Lu Feng responded with a smile, "Plain water is also colorless and odorless, and there would be no change if it were dripped into wine. Before consuming it, who can tell whether you're using plain water or Datura?"
"So, I deliberately added a little color effect."
As Lu Feng spoke, his face was full of pride.
"This way, laymen will think my medicine is very powerful, and then I can take the opportunity to raise the price, hahaha."
Hearing this, the smile on Osler's face disappeared completely, replaced by a look of astonishment.
Wasn't he that layman?
A fat sheep?
A big sucker?
"Hmph!" Dugu Yan snorted coldly from her nose.
Then, she deftly took out a small bottle from her soul tool and placed an untouched glass of white wine in front of her.
"Drip."
A drop of a strangely green liquid fell from the small bottle.
In an instant, the entire glass of originally clear and transparent white wine, as if by magic, instantly turned into a creepy dark green.
At the same time, a strong, pungent, fishy smell assaulted the nostrils.
The smell made one want to vomit, and their head felt dizzy.
"This is a snake venom that I, a little girl who doesn't even rank among the poison users on the continent, concocted when I was bored. Brother Tang Si, do you have the guts to appraise it?"
The corner of Dugu Yan's mouth rose slightly, with a hint of a provocative smile.
"If you can neutralize my Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison, then I will admit that you are better than me. And your master will naturally be better than my grandfather."
Dugu Yan's face was full of pride, and her tone revealed extreme confidence.
One had to know that this snake venom was extracted from her own martial soul, the Jade Phosphor Serpent. The poison's onset was extremely fast. An ordinary soul master, if they were tainted with just a little bit, would have their entire body fester and turn into pus within a short time.
Even her grandfather had once praised this poison, believing its potency was almost one-third that of the Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor's poison.
"Oh, I've long heard of the great name of the Jade Phosphor Serpent. I'm fortunate to see it today. It's truly extraordinary," Lu Feng's face still wore a smile as he spoke unhurriedly.
At the same time, his heart was secretly becoming excited.
Dugu Yan was just too proud.
To truly conquer her, the simplest and also the most difficult method was to crush her mercilessly in her own area of expertise: poison.
And thus, make her 'harbor a grudge'.
This way, there would be a possibility of tricking her into his bed.
Pah.
The possibility of tricking her out of her family's assets.
"However, this Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison is no simple matter!" Lu Feng's expression became extremely serious as he looked at the dark green wine.
In the original work, Tang San had successfully broken Dugu Yan's third soul skill by relying on high-concentration realgar wine.
At first glance, it seemed to be all Tang San's credit.
But in fact, it was not so.
The greatest credit should actually go to Ma Hongjun.
Ma Hongjun's martial soul was no ordinary thing. The evil fire his martial soul possessed was much hotter than ordinary flames, and it was also extremely aggressive and highly adhesive. Once it stuck to something, it was extremely difficult to extinguish.
Using it to deal with snake venom was simply a piece of cake.
As for the realgar wine, although it had a certain restraining effect on snake venom, its greatest function was to expand the damage range of the evil fire.
It was precisely the cooperation of the evil fire and the realgar wine that allowed the Shrek team to successfully break through Dugu Yan's poison formation.
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh."
Lu Feng took out several small bottles from his soul tool. These bottles were colorful and dazzling, and just looking at them made one feel a little apprehensive.
Each small bottle had a label on it, with the name of the medicine written on it.
However, this was not the script of the Douluo Continent, but was all replaced with "Pinyin".
As soon as Osler saw these bottles, he immediately felt a chill run down his back.
Osler and Dugu Yan had always had a good relationship; their families were even neighbors. Because of this, he had been tricked by Dugu Yan many times when he was a child.
So now, as soon as he saw those poisons, his scalp tingled.
Seeing this, Yu Tianheng couldn't help but frown.
He had originally thought that Lu Feng was just a rather talented soul master. But he didn't expect the other party's skills in pharmacy to be so high.
"If the other party were to suddenly use these poisons in a battle, I wouldn't be certain of victory," Yu Tianheng thought to himself.
Yu Tianheng didn't realize that he had already subconsciously regarded "Tang Si" as a competitor.
As the saying goes: The layman watches the fun, the expert sees the skill.
Dugu Yan was not scared by these small bottles. After all, she was also an expert in poison-making.
However, among the poisons that Lu Feng took out, there were several that, just by smelling the aroma they emitted, Dugu Yan knew how potent they were.
In her heart, Dugu Yan couldn't help but believe Lu Feng's words a little more.
This somewhat good-looking young man seemed to be truly extraordinary.
