2999 She Vomited Along
The little one had just started to speak when the Veil Queen tossed the entire money pouch into Qiao Mu’s arms, leaving no room for negotiation.
“There’s 680,000 in there. No need for change! Give me seven detoxification pills!”
She had quickly caught on. If she hesitated for even a split second, that stoic-faced maiden would undoubtedly raise the price!
Veil Queen silently commended her own shrewdness, while also noticing Holy Son Miyan, standing nearby, looking at her with a knowing expression, as if he were well-versed in such matters.
Qiao Mu pocketed the money pouch and retrieved seven detoxification pills from her bosom, her face devoid of emotion. “These detoxification pills must be dissolved in water.”

The Veil Queen promptly gathered seven cups and dishes of various sizes and instructed a water spiritual cultivator to fill them with water.

Only then did Qiao Mu place the seven detoxification pills into the seven containers, impassively observing as the Veil Queen tended to her ailing subordinates.
In less than three minutes, the seven burly men simultaneously opened their eyes and regained consciousness.
The Veil Queen beamed. “Are you all right?”
It was a relief that they were awake. Her seven subordinates would still be valuable in the future. She couldn’t let them recklessly succumb to the poison.
The expressions of the seven burly men underwent a swift transformation. They promptly pushed the Veil Queen aside and sprung to their feet, rushing toward a nearby tree.
“Ugh!” One of the burly men began retching while clutching onto a tree.
The other burly men also began vomiting, gasping for breath.
The Veil Queen detected a sour stench filling her nostrils, making her queasy.
Veil Queen’s shoulders slumped as she turned to find her seven subordinates holding onto the tree, in the midst of their retching. Overcome by nausea herself, she couldn’t help but join them in throwing up on the other side…
Qiao Mu was puzzled as she muttered to herself, “She didn’t take any antidote pills.”
Every individual present was a formidable figure with a high level of cultivation. When they heard this, they regarded Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao as if she were some sort of peculiar being.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt dawned on them that the reason those seven unfortunate souls were vomiting was not due to the absence of antidote pills, but rather… the presence of vomit-inducing pills!
The Veil Queen’s response was equally comical. She had ingested one of the vomit-inducing pills and joined the retching party.
The seven burly men continued to vomit for about half an hour. They retched until their stomachs felt raw, and they were seeing stars.
In the end, they sat down on the ground, gasping heavily, feeling as if star fragments were swirling around them.
They were so disoriented…
The sight of their companion’s face upon turning around nearly triggered another bout of nausea. They immediately pivoted back and began retching once more.
Holy Son Miyan found himself at a loss for words as he observed the Veil Queen and her group, an unexplainable sense of sympathy welling up in his heart.
Back in the day, when he had been at his most unfortunate, he had endured an empty existence, but nothing as extreme as being administered vomit-inducing pills by the stoic figure.
Nonetheless, witnessing the predicament of the queen and her entourage, it struck him that the stoic figure might not have been as unreasonable as he had previously assumed.
Liang Qingqing struggled to suppress her laughter, clearing her throat and saying in a solemn tone, “Um, it appears we’re running late. Holy Son, perhaps it’s time to depart?”
Holy Son Miyan gazed at Liang Qingqing impassively. “Let’s wait a bit longer. There are still individuals who haven’t arrived.”
