Skull-Splitting Fist

Ding!

The host has been attacked by a Shadow Demon.

Toxic Resistance +1000

As the poisoned wine went down, the system's delightful notification sound rang out again. Although Toxic Resistance had increased, the ability to be immune to all poisons had not yet advanced. It seemed that he hadn't consumed enough yet.

"What are you standing there like an idiot for? Pour more wine!" Gu Qingfeng urged impatiently.

"Ah? Oh." Hong Li suddenly came to her senses, still dazed, and poured another cup for Gu Qingfeng.

Gu Qingfeng looked excitedly at the wine in his cup and said, "Let me tell you, back in my hometown, there's a saying: 'If you don't drink till you drop, it's better to get beaten up.' So, this wine must be enjoyed to the fullest. If you don't let me drink to my heart's content today, you're not leaving."

With that, Gu Qingfeng downed the cup in one go.

"Ah! That's the stuff!"

Ding!

The host has been attacked by a Shadow Demon.

Toxic Resistance +1000

Toxic Resistance has reached its limit. Congratulations, the host has acquired the talent of Immunity to a Thousand Poisons.

Advanced?

Gu Qingfeng became even more excited, finding Hong Li more and more pleasing to the eye. After all, who could resist a beautiful female demon offering warmth?

By this time, Hong Li had finally snapped back to reality. She stared in disbelief as Gu Qingfeng continued to gulp down cup after cup, a bizarre thought suddenly crossing her mind.

Could it be that I made a mistake? Did I actually not put the Blood Amethyst into the wine?

Hong Li was so curious that she wanted to try a cup herself to see if it was really poisoned.

However, Gu Qingfeng didn't give her the chance, as he had already moved on to drinking straight from the bottle.

"Drinking from a cup is no fun. How about this, little sister, let me show you a 'Dragon Sucking Water' trick. I'll start with one."

With that, Gu Qingfeng picked up the wine jug, aimed it at his mouth, and with a flick of his head, the wine inside spun and was sucked into his mouth.

Glug glug glug...

Ding!

The host has been attacked by a Shadow Demon.

Toxic Resistance +1000 +1000 +1000...

Toxic Resistance has reached its limit. Congratulations, the host has acquired the talent of Immunity to Ten Thousand Poisons.

Bang!

Gu Qingfeng finished the jug in one go, imitating the mannerisms of a chivalrous hero from martial arts tales, and threw the jug to the ground, where it shattered.

The remaining wine from the jug dripped onto the floor, causing the floor to sizzle and corrode with a hissing sound.

Hong Li, who was watching, was completely stunned. She hadn't made a mistake after all; the wine was indeed poisoned. Fortunately, she hadn't tried it herself. But why was this guy completely unaffected? This was a poison so potent that even a master could be brought down!

"Any more, little sister?" Gu Qingfeng asked, still unsatisfied.

"Y-yes... there is." Hong Li nodded with difficulty.

"Then why aren't you getting it?" Gu Qingfeng glared, and without knowing why, Hong Li found herself obeying his command and fetching another bottle of Ziyang Wine.

Gu Qingfeng took a sip first, then frowned: "Why isn't this wine poisoned?"

"Ah... there's only wine left, the poison is all used up."

Smack!

Gu Qingfeng slammed the table in anger: "Wine without poison? What's the point? It's like cooking without salt! Hurry up and bring me some more poison to put in the wine. I hope you don't push me too far!"

Hong Li: "???"

She had poisoned many people before, but this was the first time she had encountered someone as bizarre as Gu Qingfeng.

Among those she had poisoned, some, after realizing they were poisoned, would fight back and then die.

Others were naturally cautious and never drank it in the first place.

Some were overconfident in their antidote abilities and drank, only to find there was no cure.

But never had she met someone like Gu Qingfeng, who drank and then complained it wasn't enough.

This was one of the world's most deadly poisons, the Blood Amethyst! Even a master couldn't withstand it, so how could a mere Qi Condensation Stage 4 like him be fine?

"Hey! I'm talking to you, brother! Hurry up and bring the poison!"

Hong Li was truly at her wit's end. She stared at him in horror and asked, "Why aren't you poisoned?"

"I'm about to be poisoned, I'm just missing a little bit. Hurry up and bring me some more." Gu Qingfeng planned to trick her into giving him another bottle of poisoned wine.

"There isn't any left, just one bottle, and you drank it all."

As soon as Hong Li finished speaking...

Boom!

A powerful sonic boom erupted.

Gu Qingfeng threw a punch, and the immense force pierced through the air, unrelenting, smashing into the beautiful head of Hong Li.

Bang!

Hong Li's head exploded instantly, leaving only her headless, delicate body seemingly unaware of what had happened, still sitting straight in her seat.

"What a buzzkill. Not giving me a proper welcome is one thing, but not even letting me drink to my heart's content? What's the point of having you around?"

As Gu Qingfeng spoke, he stored the remaining Ziyang Wine in his extradimensional space. After all, it cost a thousand taels of silver per jug, and even though he was rich now, he couldn't afford to waste it. After all, even the wealthiest landlord has no spare grain.

But just as he stored the wine, a bizarre scene unfolded.

From the severed neck of Hong Li, a thick, ink-black mist began to pour out. The mist churned and roiled, eventually coalescing into a single mass. In an instant, a beautiful head appeared on the neck.

It was Hong Li.

Her face now icy cold, her eyes, like autumn waters, seemed to freeze over with an icy chill as she stared at Gu Qingfeng.

At this moment, Hong Li was utterly enraged. This was the first time in her life that she had been caught so off guard.

Back in the day, her nickname was "mercurial and unpredictable," and she was known as the female demon who killed with a smile. But now, she never expected that the man before her could be even more unpredictable than she was.

One moment he was calling her "little sister," the next, he had blown her head off.

Hong Li had a peculiar trait: the angrier she became, the more radiant her smile would be.

Suddenly, Hong Li broke into a smile, like a blooming poppy, beautiful and alluring yet deadly and dangerous.

"My dear brother, you really don't know how to... "

Boom!

Another powerful punch with a sonic boom!

Hong Li's beautiful head was blown apart once more before she could finish her sentence.

"Calling me 'dear brother' without any poisoned wine? Do you even deserve it?" Gu Qingfeng scoffed.

In the next moment, the inky black mist once again formed Hong Li's head, but this time, she wasn't smiling.

She began to shriek loudly: "You uncouth man, how dare you hit me twice... "

Boom!

Hong Li's head exploded again.

Gu Qingfeng gently retracted his fist and said calmly, "Three times."

As the saying goes, "bad things come in threes," and this time, Hong Li finally learned her lesson. Her headless body suddenly darted away, putting some distance between herself and Gu Qingfeng, before the black mist coalesced once more, restoring her to her former state.

This time, Hong Li's eyes were blazing with fury, but she remained silent, instead raising her jade-like hand and suddenly!

From her delicate body as the center, a dense black mist began to pour out from her body.

In mere moments, the black mist covered the surrounding area, darkening the entire world.
