Qing Yu looked at the two men with their malevolent faces and she shook her head sympathetically. "Haiz, of all times to come here. You really know how to pick the time."

All that she grew in her herb beds were not just herbs, but also several stalks of beautiful but savage Lunar Enamoured Flowers.

They belonged to a similar species as the Man Eating Flower but these flowers bloomed only at night, especially after they were bathed in the moon’s essence, their demonic nature greatly intensifies. She seldom had people coming to visit her courtyard and she had planted them when she had nothing to do and for them to guard the yard as well.

And these two unfortunate miscreants had come seeking their own deaths, their hands holding such shiny weapons.

The Lunar Enamoured Flowers loved moonlight but they detested other kinds of light. Those two fools had been waving their weapons around for awhile and she guessed that the flowers were about to throw a fit.

As expected, under the silence of night, something seemed to growing robustly under the ground. In moments, the soil in front of them loosened and surged, and several enormous dark shadows rose up, surrounding the two men.

The enormous flowers were snowy white throughout, their mouths that were fully filled with sharp teeth all wide open, with a long and rounded red tongue sticking out which was densely covered in sharp hooks. As those horrifying mouths swayed, they blew out warm and wet breaths.

"What..... What kind of a thing is this! ?" The two men were staring with their eyes wide and their mouths agape in shock. Their bodies stiffened and they don’t even dare to move.

"Those are great things to have you know? I will have to thank both of you for providing them with fertilizer." Qing Yu said with a disarming smile.

"Do you know who we are? How dare....."

"Arrrgh....."

That person had not even finished his words when half of his body was chomped off by a Lunar Enamoured Flower with one single bite, the blood spraying all over the other man beside him, frightening him into howling out in sheer terror.

In the next second he was swallowed up by another Lunar Enamoured Flower. That flower seemed to have been very hungry for a long time where it did not only swallowed that man cleanly up, it even licked up the blood on the ground till there wasn’t a single drop left.

After it had its fill, it let out a satisfied burp, and then buried itself back deep underground, leaving only its rhizome showing on the surface.

(Note: Rhizome: a creeping stem lying, usually horizontally, at or under the surface of the soil and differing from a root in having scale leaves, bearing leaves or aerial shoots near its tips, and producing roots from its undersurface. Credits to Collins English Dictionary)

The man lying on the ground gone on ahead to fall into a dead faint having been unable to hold out against the poison in his body, and he did not see the scene that unfolded, or he might very well have half his life scared out of him.

Qing Yu creased up her brows and was met with a dilemma.

This fella was so tall and towering in size. Was she really going to drag him all the way into the house? If she dumped him there, it wouldn’t be good that he would still be crushing her herbs and plants underneath him.

"Hey, wake up. Continue feigning death and I will leave you here to your own perishment." She stuffed a antidote elixir into his mouth boorishly and stretched her hand out to jab her finger onto the swollen areas on his face two times.

The man had been giddy and barely conscious throughout but was feeling a little more awake after being fed the antidote elixir. When his face was jabbed by her, the pain caused him to grit his teeth and exclaim: "You!"

"Me? What about me?" Qing Yu asked as she stared down at him from her higher vantage point. "Quickly get someone to bring you away from here and not continue to take up s.p.a.ce here at my place. Also do not forget that you owe me one million taels of gold."

’Rest a.s.sured. I never go back on my word. Wait till I go back and I’ll have someone send the gold." The man said through tightly clenched teeth, in indignant anger.

"That will be best. You can carry on. I’m going back in to sleep." She let out a lazy yawn, and then immediately went walking towards her own room without once turning her head back, before she stepped inside.

The man was a little stunned. [The lady..... was leaving him in the lurch just like that? Can’t she see that he was poisoned? ?]

[Wait..... It seems..... his body is not hurting anymore, and he wasn’t feeling all that uncomfortable anymore.]
