Chapter 703 Ill kill you! James roared.
He stood up menacingly and charged at Reign.
Grabbing Reign by his throat, James lifted him off the ground.
Color immediately drained out of Reigns face.
However, he did not panic.
JJames, you better think twice about killing me.
Once Im dead, Thea will continue to suffer excruciating pain.
Though youre highly skilled in the art of medicine, this is a Gu that Ive raised for thirty years.
Theres no way you can remove it.
Reigns voice was feeble.
James, it hurts…! Thea rolled on the floor tearing at her hair.
She could feel that there were many insects inside her brain eating away at her medulla.
The pain was unbearable.
Theas cry of anguish calmed James down.
He slowly loosened his grip.
Reigns body was limp.
He sat on the chair and gently rubbed his neck.
Then, he looked at James with a mischievous grin on his face.
James questioned coldly, What do you want me to do? Reign took a small bottle out and placed it on a table.
Then, he said coldly, Consume this if you want Thea to live.
What is this? James looked at the bottle on the table.
It was an ordinarylooking ceramic bottle that was bronze in color.
Reign said, Dont worry, it wont kill you.
However, you will experience muscular atrophy slowly but surely.
You will gradually lose strength to the point that you can no longer exert a single ounce of it.
Reign paused for a second and looked at James.
Then, he continued, I planned to kill you.
However, its possible that you wont sacrifice yourself for a woman.
And so, I changed my mind.
I believe you will consume it.
After all, you believe your medical skills to be unparalleled and that youre able to create the antidote for any poison.
Once you consume it, Ill let Thea go.
Deal? Reign uttered.

James, it hurts! KKill me, please! I dont wanna live anymore… Why? Why me? Theas heart-wrenching screams reverberated throughout the room.
I hope youll hold up your end of the bargain.
Or else… James grabbed the bottle on the table.
Then, he opened the lid and took a black pill from inside the bottle.
Without the slightest bit of hesitation, he swallowed it whole.
Reign fixed his stare on James.
After a few seconds, James forehead was beaded with sweat.
Veins started popping out on his face.
Reign laughed, Haha! This is how it should be.
Dealing with you is a simple matter, after all.
That idiotic Emperor is simply incompetent.
At that moment, James finally knew that this elderly man was on the Emperors side.
James could feel something sapping away at his strength.
Soon, he collapsed on the floor.
He wanted to stand.
However, no matter how much strength he exerted, he could not move.
RRelease her.
James spoke in a feeble voice.
Dont worry, I will keep my word.
However, this is not the end.
A wicked grin crept up on Reigns face.
Immediately, he headed toward Thea and placed something near her nose.
Soon, a tiny insect crawled out.
However, he then proceeded to feed Thea an unknown pill.
James roared, What did you feed her, you b*stard?! Reign smiled.
Dont worry, its not fatal.
This is parasitic venom.
It will slowly spread all over her body.
Her skin will gradually rot, and black spots will emerge.
She will become one of the ugliest women in the world.
Looking at James, Reign smirked.
After all, the Emperor did not manage to kill James despite all his plots and petty tricks.
He, on the other hand, succeeded with a single attempt.
James, Ill have you know that I planned to kill you.
In fact, I can still choose to kill you right here right now.
However, before leaving the monastery, I promised someone to keep you alive.
You will cling to life halfalive.
Even if you survive, youll be crippled.
Does your entire body feel weak? Thats how it is.
This is a venom I specially concocted to deal with highly skilled people like you.
What a shame ….
You have reached the peak of martial arts.
If you continue to grow, you will surely move one step beyond.
What a shame that this will never happen.
Dont worry, you wont die so soon.
You will slowly lose strength, and your muscles will gradually shrink.
At first, you might still be able to sit on a chair.
However, after a few years, you can only remain bedridden.
But dont you worry.
After a few short years of excruciating pain, you will soon be dead.
