Chapter 440: Chapter 441: There’s Something Wrong with the Antidote
All the Beastmen of Taoyuan had gone chasing their goddess, while the Mermaid Clan had no idea what had happened and didn’t dare to act rashly, so they decided to first seek their clan leader for some insights.
Ye Qiao patted Wen Jue’s shoulder, "Doesn’t your brother have a cat cake, then how could my sweet Tangtang provoke such a situation with her good temper?"
Wen Jue rubbed his chin, "Hai Qin is naturally suspicious, he might have said something that he shouldn’t have. I’ll ask him about it."
Ye Qiao nodded, "Alright, I’m going to check on Tangtang. But looking at her, it seems she’s quite angry. Remember to tell your brother to apologize to her!"
Wen Jue: "Okay."

Qiu Mo was the first to rush to Hai Qin’s side. With an anxious face she asked him, "Father! What happened? Why is Tangtang so angry?"
"Exactly, clan leader. Didn’t we all agree that when the Holy Maiden of Taoyuan reads you, you shall keep quiet, and if there are any issues we discuss them afterwards. Did you, by any chance, lay your hands on the young female, or did you insult her?"
Antuowan, with regret written all over his face, wished he had never agreed to be alone with the Holy Maiden of Taoyuan and the clan leader. The clan leader’s bad temper and poor speech skills had offended countless people, oh!
Hai Qin, still immersed in the memory of being yelled at, didn’t come around. Therefore, no matter who asked him, he remained silent.
Hanna was also very anxious, but she was more attentive than others. She saw a small wooden box on the round table.
After taking it and opening it, there was a pile of nameless dried grass, padded at the bottom of the box. There was a small nest in the grass, and a small dark sphere was placed in it.
Holding the box, she handed it to Hai Qin and asked in a low voice, "What’s this?"
Seeing the Detoxification Pill, Hai Qin finally came back to earth. He paused for a moment before saying, "The Holy Maiden of Taoyuan said, this is an antidote."
The mermaid priest, Antuowan, almost leapt onto his feet in surprise, "Antidote?! That’s great! Clan leader, you should take it quickly! This way we can detoxify!"
Hai Qin didn’t say anything, but his face was full of resistance, and he refused to take the antidote.
As his partner, Hanna could be said to know him the best. She thought for a moment and quickly figured it out.
"What? You think there’s a problem with this antidote?"
Hai Qin still didn’t say anything.
The mermaid doctor quickly took the antidote from Hanna and carefully examined it. Despite it being the cold season, beads of sweat could be seen forming on his forehead.
Wen Jue, unknown when, had stood up and was now standing behind the mermaid doctor, silently watching him do the examination.
Qiu Mo carefully watched Hai Qin, and couldn’t resist speaking up for Su Tang, "Father, could you have gotten it wrong? How could Tangtang possibly give you a problematic antidote? She doesn’t even know you, there’s no reason for her to harm you..."
Hai Qin gave Qiu Mo a stern look, his tone unkind, "What would you know!"
Qiu Mo pouted, feeling wronged, and wanted to argue back.
Hanna also gave Qiu Mo a look, "Amo, shut up!"
Qiu Mo felt extremely upset, why didn’t anyone want to listen to her?
Both father and now mum were like this.
The sweat beads on the mermaid doctor’s forehead had now formed into clusters, and were sliding down his cheek and onto the floor.
Shaking with fear, he said, "Clan leader, this antidote... there’s no... no issue with it..."
Hai Qin’s eyebrows were furrowed so severely it looked like he was forming the character for "Chuan", his face full of doubt, "How can there be no issue? That young female was clearly lying. She’s a female of the Sky Swallowing Python Clan, not a beast god’s messenger. You’ve all been deceived by her!"
Hanna didn’t pay attention to Hai Qin, she turned to look at the mermaid doctor.
