Chapter 727: A Bold Plan
Huang Rong checked on her husband’s condition.
Although Song Qingshu had forced out the suspicious antidote, Guo Jing’s situation remained dire. Previously, even though he had temporarily lost his internal strength, he had still been conscious. Now, however, he was completely unconscious.
If not for his steady breathing, Huang Rong might have already fought Song Qingshu to the death.
She didn’t know what had gone wrong. Was there something wrong with the antidote? Or was it Song Qingshu himself? Although she had more or less confirmed that the antidote was not poisonous, deep down, she still didn’t want to believe that Song Qingshu was the mastermind behind all of this.
‘If this was really all an act orchestrated by him, I will never forgive him!’ Huang Rong silently vowed as she clutched her husband’s hand.
Lost in her thoughts, Huang Rong lowered her head, while Song Qingshu furrowed his brows in deep contemplation. The room quickly sank into an unsettling silence.
“I understand now!” Song Qingshu suddenly broke the silence.
“What do you understand?” Huang Rong looked at him curiously.
Holding the antidote between his fingers, Song Qingshu explained, “The antidote is not poisonous, but it definitely contains highly stimulating ingredients. From what I can identify, it has cuttlefish ink and sea urchin, among other such ingredients. There may be even more I haven’t detected. When Hero Guo consumed this antidote, these stimulating components triggered the latent poison in his body, causing it to flare up violently. Luckily, I had been cautious and didn’t completely dissolve the antidote all at once while channeling my internal energy—otherwise, the consequences would have been catastrophic.”
