After Shangguan Xiao and Luo Fan consumed the potions, they felt a rush of heat that flowed across their abdomen. There was no discomfort at all and only an indescribable relief.
At that moment, they had the same thought in their minds.
That was a detrimental potion? What a joke! That was more likely a tonic instead!
They did not experience any pain or abnormalities, so they had looked quite relaxed!
However, when they drank the potion, Shen Yanxiao, who was supposed to be in pain, had smirked with a cold smile on her face.
Shen Yanxiao slowly stood upright, and the pain that she had suffered seemed to have disappeared in a flash. Under everyone’s astonished gaze, she wiped the cold sweat on her face in a relaxed manner. She did not look uncomfortable at all.
“How could that be!” Pu Lisi widened his eyes and looked at Shen Yanxiao, who seemed to have recovered. He could not believe what he had seen!
He had personally taught the Concealed Poison Potion and Chaos Potion to Shangguan Xiao and Luo Fan. Therefore, he knew full well about the effects of the two potions combined. Even a strong male adult could not exert any strength if he were to consume both the potions, let alone a young child like Shen Jue.
However, Shen Yanxiao looked very relaxed with a smile on her face. It was as if she was totally at ease.
“Impossible! She had clearly suffered from the effects earlier.” Pu Lisi shook his head in disbelief. There was nothing wrong with the Concealed Poison Potion and Chaos Potion as he had observed Shangguan Xiao and Luo Fan’s progress. He could confirm that both the potions were made perfectly. Furthermore, Shen Yanxiao had also shown her discomfort when she drank the elixir. How did she recover in the blink of an eye?
Pu Lisi could not think of a reason regardless of how hard he thought about it
!!..
Even so, everyone had seen changes in Shen Yanxiao.
Shen Yanxiao had been in agony just moments ago, so some of them suspected that it was all an illusion.
Even Ye Qing looked doubtful. He also knew about the effects of the potions combined, but he could not think of a quick method to suppress the efficacy of the two detrimental potions in such a short period. Unless, of course, if he was an expert who had undergone his second class promotion. Similar to an Archmagus, he could use his battle aura and magic to temporarily suppress the potion’s efficacy. However, Shen Jue was only a first-year student. How could he have the same skills as Ouyang Huanyu?
All the spectators were confused by the changes to Shen Yanxiao’s behavior.
No one but Shen Yanxiao knew that she had used a warlock’s curse on herself the moment she drank the potions.
The curse that she had used was Numb. It was a potent singular curse that could allow an individual to lose their sense of touch for a short period by numbing the sensory nerves in the brain. She would not feel the slightest pain even if someone were to stab her with a knife, let alone the Concealed Poison Potion.
The warlocks were nearly extinct in the Brilliance Continent, and so, not many people understood curses. Therefore, no one would associate Shen Yanxiao’s behavior with the warlocks.
Pu Lisi, Shangguan Xiao, and Luo Fan had exerted a great deal of effort to pit against her. Unfortunately, Shen Yanxiao was also a warlock who could make use of curses to control her five senses.
That also meant that their scheme had been destined to fail!
She had pretended to be in pain to make Shangguan Xiao and Luo Fan lower their guard so that they would drink her potion without any hesitation. Since things had already gone her way, there was no need to continue with the pretense!
