In the next moment, under the astonished gazes of the crowd, Guan Chengye's body began to tremble. His facial skin then started to squirm as if he were in agony.
"Master Lin, what is this…?"
Everyone was startled, their faces filled with panic. They feared the so-called elixir was actually poison.
However, Lin Mu offered no explanation, instead serenely sipping his tea.
UGH!
Suddenly, Guan Chengye spat out a mouthful of black, foul-smelling blood.
"It really is poison!" a magnate exclaimed in alarm, shooting to his feet and pointing at Lin Mu. He suppressed his rage and said, "Master Lin, what is the meaning of this? We were kind enough to help you, and you repay us by trying to harm us?"
This man was Cheng Bugui, a major figure in River City whose influence was comparable to Dao Wuming's. As soon as he spoke, the expressions of the other leaders turned grim.
