Due to the large size of the pill and the hasty swallowing, the young eunuch almost rolled his eyes.

Fortunately, after the chocolate bean stayed in his throat for a while, its surface began to melt a bit.

This melting increased its slickness, allowing it to slide right into his stomach.

Only then did the young eunuch let out a long breath, patting his chest hard.

Moreover, at this moment, the young eunuch couldn't stop thinking that this must be a super lethal poison. Didn't he almost tormented himself to death just after swallowing it?

This feeling of being worse than death was too unbearable.

Especially the feeling of not being able to breathe, it terrified him beyond measure.

Indeed, this was what preconceived notions made the young eunuch think at that moment.

Because he instinctively thought that the pill Lin Yi gave him was a poison, any tiny reaction he experienced after taking it, he blamed on the poison.

As for the cold gaze Lin Yi cast just now, it was very real.

The reason, of course, was the glare from the Iron Man Armor.

In this era, there's no such thing as light bulbs, so the white light was especially conspicuous, something they had never seen before.

Seeing the young eunuch come to his senses, Lin Yi nodded in satisfaction and said,

"Very good. Now that you've taken my pill, your life is in my hands.

I can tell you clearly, if you don't take the antidote within 24 hours, things will get very miserable.

Remember, you will experience the sensation of a thousand ants tearing apart your body, and not even leaving a complete corpse."

At this point, the young eunuch visibly shivered, suddenly feeling intensely itchy all over, the kind of sensation that made him very uncomfortable, wanting to scratch but unable to.

Of course, this feeling wasn't the onset of any drug effect, but a psychological reaction.

To be precise, it was a natural human reaction, a simple example.

When you're feeling fine, you won't feel uncomfortable anywhere in your body. However, if you keep thinking that a part of your body is unwell, it won't take long for you to actually feel it there.

It could be itching, pain, or something else.

In short, focus enough on any part of your body and you'll find something peculiar about it.

Just like now, the young eunuch's fear, Lin Yi saying he'd endure the pain of a thousand ants biting him, made him immediately feel like countless ants were crawling on him.

It also convinced him more that the pill he swallowed was indeed a highly toxic poison.

Now, all he could think of was how to win over this warrior, how to get him to give the antidote.

At this moment, the warrior finally spoke again:

"Good. Now let's head back to the Royal Palace together. I'll follow behind you, and you'll clear the way for me, leading me all the way to the palace outside where your superior resides."

The young eunuch certainly wouldn't deny anything Lin Yi said.

Now, every word that came out of Lin Yi's mouth was something the young eunuch would follow unconditionally, with utter devotion.

Lin Yi didn't waste time talking to him further. After he explained what to watch out for, he grabbed the eunuch's clothes and leapt into the air.

This frightened the young eunuch immensely. Although he had experienced it once before, it had been when he was unconscious.

Even though he briefly woke up mid-air, he quickly blacked out again.

But now was different. Now he was fully awake, witnessing everything with his own eyes.

He felt the rush of wind in his ears, saw the dark forest below; his heart was pounding like a drum.

Not just that, he was scared to extreme levels now.

Especially since Lin Yi, just by holding his clothes, was flying like this. He was terrified that if he made one wrong move or if the clothes couldn't bear the weight and tore, he'd fall straight to the ground.

If he fell, he couldn't imagine what the outcome would be.

Anyway, the current height was much greater than standing on a mountain peak looking down.

Perhaps it was this fear that even made him overlook why Lin Yi could fly with him.

Lin Yi carried the young eunuch, flying all the way back to where he was first caught.

Finding a secluded corner, he landed again.

This time, when the young eunuch's feet touched the ground, his heart finally settled, but his legs uncontrollably trembled.

He nearly collapsed after taking just two steps.

Fortunately, Lin Yi quickly grabbed the collar of his neck, preventing him from falling.

With Lin Yi's help, the young eunuch finally managed to stand.

However, when he started walking, he found his steps weak. Lin Yi, noticing this, shook his head helplessly and simply grabbed his neck collar once more.

Holding him like this, they headed towards the palace where the 79th concubine resided.

Since the young eunuch had just come from there and was quickly caught by Lin Yi, it meant the palace was very close to their current location.

Sure enough, after walking for less than three minutes, they arrived outside the palace.

By this time, Lin Yi had already removed the Iron Man Armor.

He was also dressed in splendid clothes.

These clothes, incidentally, had an interesting background.

They were provided by Leng Yu, and according to Leng Yu, they were worn when she disguised herself as a man before.

Although Leng Yu was a bit taller than Lin Yi, causing the clothes to fit a little snugly, the ancient robe...
