Chapter 1185: Linked Heart Poisonous Insects (2)
"No..." Yang Ruxin was about to say it wasn’t necessary when she suddenly felt a pain at her glabella and quickly raised her hand to touch her forehead. However, she felt nothing and hurriedly looked at Gu Qingheng, only to see that he too was touching his forehead, which made her frown.
"Haha..." Tang Wanqian laughed, "This is the Heart Poisonous Insect I’ve planted in you two..."
"Heart Poisonous Insect?" Yang Ruxin’s eyes widened, "Old man, we’re supposed to help you, why are you harming us?"
"How am I harming you?" Tang Wanqian glared, "Do you think all Heart Poisonous Insects are harmful?"

If one encounters danger, the other will be able to detect it immediately..." Tang Wanqian was quite proud, "Of course, this requires that you truly have a deep connection. The stronger your bond, the better the Heart Poisonous Insect will grow. But should one of you become unfaithful..." He seemed to want to stroke his beard but the chains on his wrist clanked, so he had to lower his hand again, "Should one become unfaithful, the disloyal one’s Heart Poisonous Insect will burst and die, and its poison could potentially kill or cripple a person. With your capabilities, you definitely won’t die, but being crippled is certain..."
