Chapter 4891: 5.0643 Poison

"Ah!" Her agonizing scream hadn't even fully escaped her mouth before she was utterly silenced by a cloud of poison powder thrown directly at her face.

A burning sensation flared in her throat, making her beautiful face contort as she glared at the newcomer.

After trying to open her mouth twice without being able to make a sound, Jisi understood that her voice had likely been immediately taken away by the poison powder thrown by that person.

What truly terrified her was that the person, at some unknown point, had been quietly lurking on the ceiling of the cavern, clinging there like a thin paper cutout.

When she looked up and saw such a thing, the psychological shadow it cast was immense.

Anyone who, upon looking up in their own room, saw a stranger on the ceiling would not be able to remain calm.

Great Overlord Jisi scrambled to her feet, desperately trying to flee.

However, she slammed into a restriction barrier, bouncing back with a "thud" and crashing heavily onto her stone bed.

Although the stone bed was covered with very soft fish-skin bedding, the impact still left the Great Overlord quite shaken.

W-who are you? Who are you?!

Great Overlord Jisi, unable to speak, could only glare fiercely at the gracefully descending middle-aged man, her eyes flashing with a hint of panic.

She had been ruling this place as a king within the Sacrificial Sea Abyss for so many years, and this was the first time she had suffered such a great loss.

Someone had actually infiltrated her cave dwelling, and she only just discovered it.

Are you one of those petty thieves? Great Overlord Jisi questioned the middle-aged man before her with her gaze.

The other party, however, didn't even bother to give her a glance in response. He walked directly in front of her and struck her with a palm from a distance.

Great Overlord Jisi cried out in pain, opening her mouth wide, and watched as a tiny black pill swiftly flew into her mouth, dissolving with her saliva.

Great Overlord Jisi's expression suddenly changed. She clutched the fabric over her chest, making several dry retching sounds.

By this time, it was completely noisy outside.

Zuo Lanshan was at the front of the cave, drawing the full fire of the entire Land of Sin. In front of a stunned crowd, he transformed into a hundred-zhang-long giant snake.

With a lift of his snake tail, stone bricks and debris tumbled down the cave walls.

Among the fifty-plus indigenous inhabitants of the Land of Sin, at least twenty or thirty of them concentrated their fire here, gathering all their power into a single force, attacking the human-snake hybrid with all their might.

In the nick of time, Immortal Venerable Taohua appeared beside Zuo Lanshan, grabbing his right shoulder and continuously supplying him with Sacred Power.

The combined power of dozens of indigenous inhabitants, coupled with the two men's combined strength, collided like stars, causing an earth-shattering impact.

All the indigenous inhabitants were sent flying backward, their wails immediately becoming a continuous roar.

Zuo Lanshan snorted, "Overestimating yourselves, aren't you?"

An indigenous inhabitant who had been blasted away cried out with a face full of shock, "Quick, quick, report to the Great Overlord! S-someone fearless has come to the City Lord's Mansion to cause, cause trouble!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than he was "thumped" into a puddle of flesh by the human-snake hybrid's hundred-meter-long tail.

"So much talk, can't you be a little quieter?"

"Are you looking for this Great Overlord?" Crown Prince Mo, disguised as a middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance, held his sword against Great Overlord Jisi's back, forcing her to walk step by step towards the crowd.

Great Overlord Jisi's lips trembled, seemingly too angry to speak.

But in reality, the poison pill had already dissolved in her stomach, churning wildly within her.
