I Am Unstoppable novel

Chapter 424 A Dream

Spirit Gathering Pill was undoubtedly benign, yet the craft of creating it was intricate. To the eye and nose, it was utterly colorless and odorless. Nobody would be able to discern whether Spirit Gathering Pill was a lethal poison or a miraculous cure.

Simon was testing whether Marlington King's intentions were sincere or deceitful. If Marlington King dared to ingest a Spirit Gathering Pill, it would reveal his honesty.

This was a psychological warfare.

In a deep voice, Marlington King said, “I'm not opposed to taking your Maleficent Lethal Pill, but I must warn you in advance. Should you invite holy king silkworm into your body, you cannot leave Holy Maiden Cave. the moment you step outside, holy king silkworm will go berserk, and you'll be dead.”

Simon's brows knitted together. “If I can extract holy king silkworm, you must help escort Mauve down the mountain.”

“Agreed!” Marlington King paused and added, “Given that I am under the control of your poison pill, how could I possibly harm her?”

Simon tucked Spirit Gathering Pill back into his spatial ring and said, “Marlington King, I trust your word. Let's leave the matter of the poison pill behind. Lead the way.”

Taken aback, Marlington King breathed a sigh of relief.

Naturally, Simon wouldn't truly let Marlington King consume Spirit Gathering Pill. Firstly, it was invaluable. Secondly, the man was an expert both in parasites and poison art. Hence, Simon's tricks would be revealed. Lastly, it helped to alleviate the tension between them, showcasing his absolute trust in Marlington King. With Marlington King's honest nature, he would not easily go against his word.

However, Simon realized that Marlington King was the stubborn type, seeing as the latter was only open to negotiation after Simon had demonstrated his resolve by killing someone.

Soon after, under Marlington King's guidance, they proceeded toward Holy Maiden Cave.

Before they set off, Marlington King advised Simon, “You may well understand the act of intimacy between the male and female, but you can't let the female resist, nor let her know you intend to draw away holy king silkworm. If she resists you in any way, the holy king silkworm will do the same. That will make it impossible for you to draw it into your body.”

Simon nodded. Out of curiosity, he asked, “The holy king silkworm seems rather fragile, but you appear to highly value it. Why is that? What can you use it for?”

“The holy king silkworm can command all parasites in the world,” Marlington King replied in a stern tone.

Realization dawned on Simon.

Before long, they arrived at the entrance of Holy Maiden Cave.

“I won't go in,” Marlington King declared.

Nodding, Simon stepped into the cave.

To his surprise, the cave was a sanctuary with the most comfortable weather, adorned with stalactites from above and traversed by a natural stream ahead.
