Chapter 703 You Can’t Run Away!
Zuotian Liehua widened her eyes in surprise. She saw Wang Teng walking into the room where the pope was in. She found it unbelievable. How bold was he? Where did he get the guts to touch the pope?
What an audacious man!
She was supposed to find Wang Teng’s sneaky actions funny, but she found it hard to laugh at this point. Especially when she saw him walking to the pope’s side. They were less than a meter apart. Her entire body tensed up, and her heart was palpitating in fear. It was terrifying
What was this fellow thinking?
Zuotian Liehua almost jumped in fright. Wasn’t he afraid of getting discovered?
We’re going to die; we’re going to die…
Wang Teng had already reached the sleeping cabin where the pope was at. He sized up the pope curiously.
Honestly, Zuotian Liehua felt that this fellow was skilled and bold. He wasn’t worried that his opponent would wake up suddenly even at this close distance.
Other people wouldn’t dare to go within 100 meters of a top-level general-stage martial warrior, but Wang Teng was extremely confident in his concealing skills.
Since I’m so close, why don’t I launch a sneak attack? Wang Teng touched his chin and wondered to himself.
But soon, he realized that this wasn’t feasible. The sleeping cabin was sturdy. It was made of some unknown material that couldn’t be found on Earth. He couldn’t break it forcefully.
Also, once he launched his attack, the pope would be alerted.
This was probably the reason why the pope wasn’t afraid of invaders.
There were layers of guards outside, and the defense of this sleeping cabin was strong. it was undoubtedly safe to cultivate inside.
Wang Teng gave up on his plan. “What a pity…” He shook his head and continued observing.
If he wanted to sneak attack, he needed to have careful observation, bold planning, and fast and accurate execution…
“Huh?” Suddenly, he saw a familiar item and gasped in surprise.
This sleeping cabin was half-transparent. The lower half of the body couldn’t be seen, but if one changed their angle, they could see part of
it.
The pope’s hands were crossed over his lower abdomen. He was holding an item.
That was… a crystal skull!
Wang Teng was familiar with the item. He had a crystal skull too!
The pope was holding a second crystal skull.
This was… an unexpected surprise!
The crystal skull was able to nourish and raise one’s spiritual power. It also contained a piece of a star chart.
He must get this thing. Even if it was in the hands of the pope of the Zhenli Clan, he would snatch it over.
Wang Teng squinted his eyes, a dangerous glow appearing in them. He started to observe even more carefully.
Very soon, he realized that this cabin had its weakness. It was filled with an unknown liquid, which needed an infusion pipe to enter the cabin.
Wang Teng smiled. His gaze landed on the intersection point of the infusion pipe. A wist of poison Force seeped out and flowed into the tiny crack linking the pipe to the cabin.
He was planning to poison the pope!
Moreover, the poison was the special and lethal poison of the Demon Lotus Poison Body.
Once he finished, Wang Teng shot back instantly.
Swoosh!
Wang Teng rushed out of the room and said hurriedly, “Quick, leave!”
Zuotian Liehua turned around and ran without asking. They went back the same way they came. Her speed was on par with Wang Teng. As someone who was able to hide in the Zhenli Clan for more than a year and survive, she had some skills up her sleeves. At least her running speed was amazing!
“Who is it?!” At this moment, the pope, who was in deep sleep, suddenly opened his eyes. His expression changed, and he bellowed in anger.
“Oh my, that was fast!” Wang Teng was shocked.
Indeed, the pope was a powerful martial warrior. He noticed the change immediately after the Demon Lotus Poison Body’s poison entered his body.
Zuotian Liehua and Wang Teng escaped to the hall at the speed of light. “What did you do? Why did he wake up with a start!” Zuotian Liehua asked with a black face as she escaped. This fellow was so troublesome!
“I didn’t do anything. I just added some nutrient solution to his sleeping cabin,” Wang Teng spouted nonsense. Zuotian Liehua almost went mad.
What do you mean by nutrient solution! Do you think I’ll believe your bullshit?
This bastard was still trying to fool her.
Zuotian Liehua was appalled. “Wait, did you poison him?!”
“Huh? You’re not so stupid after all,” Wang Teng said. She knew that Wang Teng was up to no good, but she didn’t think he would poison the pope of the Zhenli Clan. Zuotian Liehua finally understood how sly the guy was.
Indeed, he was a bad guy!
“Why are you looking at me like that? There can never be too much deception in war. Any method is good as long as it can defeat our opponent.” Wang Teng was furious. He felt humiliated.
“Yes, yes, your method is amazing.” Zuotian Liehua was speechless. This fellow had a few screws loose. Was this the time to care about this?
“… Whatever you say!” Wang Teng replied indignantly.
“Since you poisoned him, why are you still running away? Why can’t you fight with him?” Zuotian Liehua asked angrily.
“What do you know? Before you kill a mouse, you must let it run around. That way, the rat poison in it will spread through its body faster,” Wang Teng said with a straight face. “Are you treating the pope as a rat?” Zuotian Liehua didn’t know what to say.
They seemed to have talked for a long time but only a few seconds had passed. They had run to the hall and were sprinting towards the passageway linking to the ground.
The pope of the Zhenli Clan had stepped out of his sleeping chamber. Since his cabin was filled with liquid, the door would only open after it had been emptied. That was why he took some time.
The sleeping cabin was part of the alien civilization. Due to the difference in language and culture, the Zhenli Clan hadn’t grasped the use of all the items inside the spacecraft even though they had had it for some time.
For instance, they had only learned the most basic use of this sleeping cabin. He couldn’t open it quickly from inside or his speed would have been faster.
However, he wasn’t in a hurry. That rat came in secretly and used such an unscrupulous method. Hence, his ability must be weak. He wasn’t worried that this rat would run away. He wouldn’t be able to escape using the short time he took to get out of the sleeping cabin.
It was ironic that both Wang Teng and the pope treated each other as a rat. Who would be the rat in the end?
The pope stepped out of the cabin and disappeared on the spot. His cold voice echoed in the spacecraft. “You can’t run away!”
