Slumdog Billionaire Husband by Rayden Berg

Chapter 915 Framing Him

Although Gerald did not use any moves from the supreme level of Flame Decay, his attributes were

completely unleashed, and it was not something that Grant could fight against.

“How is that possible? You’ve been poisoned by Nether Needle. How can you still use Vital Energy?”

Grant’s expression changed drastically.

However, no one told him the answer.

The strike from Gerald’s saber rendered him completely defenseless. He let out a loud blood-curdling

scream, and half of his body began to freeze. There were flashes of lightning on his body, while the

other side was being burned.

In the blink of an eye, Grant died.

Pffft!

At the same moment that Grant died, Gerald opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood. His

right arm was completely paralyzed, and a thin layer of ice completely enveloped him.

Indeed, after the poison entered his body, Gerald quickly used his ice attribute to seal his body.

However, he found that it had completely unable to stop the poison from spreading at all. The poison in

Nether Needle

was too terrifying.

The poison continued to spread, but the attribute-related ability from the magma attribute and thunder

attribute actually stopped the poison from spreading.

This also gave Gerald a chance to take out his saber and strike.

Previously, when Gerald fought in front of Grant and the others, Grant did not know what Gerald’s

attribute was. Grant was very confident in Nether Needle.

However, he did not expect Gerald to not only possess an attribute but also possessed so many

attributes.

The attributes temporarily restrained the poison from spreading.

However, when Gerald struck with his saber, he found that the poison suddenly could not be

suppressed anymore, and it began to spread quickly all over his body.

“Damn! Am I going to be poisoned to death this way?” Gerald cursed. He stopped looking at Grant’s

corpse and began to run quickly toward the cave.

The only hope now was Valery.

When he reached the entrance of the cave, Gerald felt that he could no longer see clearly.

He almost rolled down into the cave from the entrance. At this time, his whole body was red and

swollen, and

his lips were black.

The poison of Nether Needle was too terrifying.

“Gerald!” His movement attracted the attention of the others. Valery and the others opened their eyes.

When

they saw Gerald’s condition, everyone was very shocked. Valery jumped up and approached him.

The others also gathered around and asked, “What happened?”

“He’s poisoned, and it’s a very strong poison.” Then, Valery added, “I have to treat him now!”

As she spoke, she sat cross-legged, and the Vital Energy around her body quickly enveloped Gerald.

She was not confident if her Vital Energy could help Gerald get rid of the poison.

With her vast experience, she knew that the poison must be extraordinary.

“H-How did he get poisoned?” Skyler asked in confusion,

Carolyn was speechless before she said, “You asked me, but who should I ask? We’ll talk about it

when he

recovers.”

Skyler looked around and said, “Huh. He seems to have rolled down from the entrance of the cave.

Why didn’t I see Grant? I’m going out to see him!”

With that said, he ran out of the cave.

After he left, Valery was treating Gerald with all her might. Carolyn and Anabel’s faces were still filled

with worry, while the other two went away to continue with their cultivation.

“I think I’ve read about the features on his body in some ancient book. He seems to have been

poisoned by

Nether Needle,” Anabel said.

“Nether Needle?” Then, Carolyn asked curiously, “What is it?”

“It’s a hidden weapon from ancient times. I don’t know who made it, and the method to make it has

been lost. Some still exist, but it’s very rare.” Anabel then added, “A Nether Needle can kill a supreme

Flame Decayer! Even the supreme Flame Decayer can’t fight against it. In the entire world, only the old

lady from the Stone

Tribe who has the life attribute can save him!”

After that, Anabel looked at Gerald and continued, “But it’s usually always too late after a person is

poisoned with it. It is because the poison of a Nether Needle is too fast, and can spread to a person’s

whole body in an extremely fast time. Even a supreme Flame Decayer can’t hold on for long. I didn’t

expect Gerald to be poisoned by a poison like this. Fortunately, Valery happened to have a life

attribute, and this guy is really

lucky.”

“You mean, Valery can cure him?” Carolyn asked happily.

Anabel nodded and said, “It shouldn’t be a problem.”

Carolyn patted herself on the chest before she calmed down and said, “That’s good, that’s good!”

After a while, Skyler walked down and said with a grim face, “Grant is dead.”

“Huh?” Carolyn’s heart skipped a beat as she stole a glance at Gerald.

I’m afraid someone came here. Gerald and Grant must have been tricked while they were luring the

people. away so that we won’t be discovered.” Skyler’s expression darkened as he added, “I felt four

attributes on his

corpse. There were the ice attribute, thunder attribute, magma attribute, and gale attribute. I’m afraid it

was Sheryl who has joined forces with the others ”

With that said, he looked at Gerald. Then, he added, “The poison in Gerald’s body is also… Nether

Needle. Not many people in this world have it. But it’s normal for the people in Infinito to have one.”

At that moment, his expression darkened as he said, Tm afraid Sheryl has teamed up with a particular

team. At least four would have reached the level of Flame Decay or above.”

In fact, Gerald was still conscious at this time. He was thinking about how to explain Grant’s death to

Skyler, but he did not expect the man to start having wild assumptions.

After Valery used Vital Energy on him, he felt that the poison in his body was being excreted bit by bit.

He began to think of an explanation following Skyler’s speculation.

Skyler did not have the mood to cultivate anymore. After about two hours, Gerald’s complexion

returned to normal. He slowly opened his eyes and let out a long breath.

“How’s it going?” Valery asked in a hurry.

“The poison has been removed,” Gerald replied.

When Skyler saw that Gerald had woken up, the former hurriedly asked, “What happened?”

Gerald looked at Skyler and said with a bitter smile, “I thought it was useless to continue cultivating and

wasting this energy. I plan to leave the energy to you first, and I went out. I planned to replace Grant.”

Then, he added, “Just as I arrived at the entrance of the cave, I felt a few auras approaching.” After

that, he sighed before continuing, “I thought that as I have reached the supreme level of Flame Decay,

I’m not afraid of them. So I was thinking of protecting all of you and luring them away! Grant followed

me as well.”

Gerald then added with a bitter smile, “I took the initiative to let out the aura of a Supreme Flame

Decayer. Sure enough, they chased after me, but before I could go far, I found something pricked my

right arm. Immediately afterward, I found a poison spreading quickly in my body, which couldn’t be

suppressed at all! I couldn’t use Vital Energy either.”

After that, he continued, “Then, I chose to come back as soon as possible. I thought as there are five

Flame Decayers here, I won’t be afraid of them anymore.” Gerald smiled bitterly and added, “But in the

end… they didn’t care about me at all and went straight to chase Grant. I completely had no idea what

happened after that. When I returned to the cave, I almost lost consciousness!”

“The thing that poisoned you is Nether Needle, the most powerful hidden weapon in the world. A

supreme Flame Decayer would be bound to die if he is poisoned by it. It’s normal for them to leave you

alone. Have you seen who they are?” Skyler gritted his teeth as he asked the question.

“No… I only saw a flash of red uniform passing by, and I didn’t see anything else.” Gerald shook his

head and spoke.

“It really is Sheryl!” Skyler cursed loudly.
