Low-Grade First-Rank Pills, Hope

Tie Wuqing's movement techniques were extremely advanced, and he quickly caught up to the Horned Demon.

Immediately, his palm glowed intensely red as he pushed forward, sending a palm print imbued with terrifying Qi and Blood power towards the Horned Demon's back.

The Horned Demon ignored everything, channeling all the black Qi and Blood within its body to its back to withstand Tie Wuqing's full-power strike.

The Horned Demon spat out black blood, a look of madness on its face. Using the force from Tie Wuqing's palm strike, it dashed towards Ye Xiaofan at an even faster speed.

"Damn it!"

Ye Xiaofan was speechless. Tie Wuqing also froze for a moment, a hint of embarrassment flashing in her beautiful eyes. She didn't dare to act carelessly again and pursued the Horned Demon at full speed.

Wherever the Horned Demon passed, humans and beast-form demons fighting on the road were sent flying.

Immediately, cries of agony and roars filled the air.

Some unlucky demons were even crushed by the Horned Demon's stomping.

Ye Xiaofan looked back, his peripheral vision tracking the Horned Demon and calculating the distance between them. Even with his full use of the Wind God Steps, his speed was far inferior to this demon.

He could only rely on agility to try his luck.

Three zhang, One zhang, The hairs on the back of Ye Xiaofan's neck stood on end, as if a cold hand had grabbed him.

"Now!"

Ye Xiaofan roared in his heart. Just as the Horned Demon's massive hand was about to seize his neck.

He stomped heavily on the ground, instantly stopping. Using his foot as an axis, he bent down and rotated ninety degrees. His other foot lunged forward, using the wind's power to leap out three zhang.

The Horned Demon's eyes widened in disbelief. It couldn't believe that with its Ninth Level Body Refinement strength, personally attempting to grab a human at Body Refining Third Level, it had actually failed.

The Horned Demon wanted to strike again, but Tie Wuqing had already arrived.

Tie Wuqing's eyes were filled with ferocity. His Qi and Blood was pushed to the limit, his entire body seeming to ignite with Qi and Blood power, like wolf smoke.

Qi and Blood Wolf Smoke!

Tie Wuqing was actually a Prodigy cultivator who had cultivated a Qi and Blood anomaly.

A pair of delicate, jade-like hands struck out in anger.

Two palm prints, the size of bowls, shot towards the Horned Demon at extreme speed.

The Horned Demon's eyes widened in horror. It didn't dare to be careless, turning back and channeling its black Qi and Blood power, its fists like rolling thick smoke smashing towards the bloody palm prints.

It sounded like war drums shaking the heavens, or thunder from a clear sky.

The surrounding crowd was briefly deafened, and then terrifying energy aftershocks spread outwards like waves.

Wherever they passed, people were thrown from their mounts, spitting blood.

Ye Xiaofan waved his sword, slashing at the energy aftershock. The phản lực (recoil force) shook his tiger's mouth until it cracked, his arm went numb, and he almost dropped the precious sword in his hand.

He was sent flying like a kite with a broken string, crashing into a towering ancient tree before coming to a stop.

"Pfft!"

His internal organs jolted, a sweetness rose in his throat, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

The lingering poison, which had not yet acted, seemed to have found an opportunity and erupted like a volcano at this moment.

Ye Xiaofan coughed up three mouthfuls of blood. The blood contained wisps of black gas that fell to the ground, corroding it and producing wisps of green smoke.

His vitality rapidly declined, his face instantly turned pale, and he leaned against the tree like someone recovering from a serious illness, gasping for breath.

Time rewound to the moment Tie Wuqing and the Horned Demon clashed.

As soon as the two sides exchanged blows, the terrifying palm force sent the Horned Demon flying.

Black blood gushed out of its seven orifices like there was no tomorrow.

"Human, I remember you. You ruined Lord Mountain Lord's good deed, and you won't have a good end."

The Horned Demon, whose aura had plummeted to the bottom, did not forget to utter threats.

As soon as it landed, it immediately unleashed the Blood Burning Secret Technique and fled into the forest.

Tie Wuqing's delicate eyebrows furrowed. After chasing for a distance, she returned without success.

On the other side, "Grass is a type of plant."

The Unicorn Demon cursed under its breath upon seeing the Horned Demon escape and turned to flee in another direction.

One had already escaped, and if another escaped, its Dao heart would be unstable.

Tie Wuqing pushed her movement techniques to their limit, pursuing the Unicorn Demon.

The Unicorn Demon was only at Body Refinement Seventh Level, how could it outrun Tie Wuqing, who was already skilled in movement techniques?

In just a few breaths, Tie Wuqing caught up.

In two or three moves, its head was smashed.

Tie Wuqing dragged the headless demon's ankle back.

The demon was full of treasures, and it couldn't be wasted.

"Guild Leader Tie, quickly come and see Xiaofan."

Luo Ming's anxious voice came. Tie Wuqing frowned slightly, used her movement technique to arrive in front of Ye Xiaofan, grabbed his wrist, and a warm current flowed along his arm into his internal organs, limbs, and bones.

Sensing Ye Xiaofan's condition, Tie Wuqing's brow furrowed almost into a single line beneath her mask.

"Guild Leader Tie, can you tell what's wrong with Xiaofan?"

Seeing Tie Wuqing silent for a long time, Luo Ming couldn't help but ask.

"He's probably poisoned. The toxins are attached to his internal organs, and I can only vaguely detect them."

Tie Wuqing's tone was grave.

"What? How could Xiaofan be poisoned?"

Luo Ming exclaimed, looking at Ye Xiaofan with a worried expression.

"You can actually see that I'm poisoned."

Ye Xiaofan's face, as pale as gold paper, showed a look of shock. This poison of his couldn't even be detected by the old Chinese doctor Sai Hua Tuo.

"You know you're poisoned."

A flicker of surprise flashed in Tie Wuqing's beautiful eyes, but then she thought of his heaven-defying combat power and felt it was reasonable.

After all, every prodigy had their own unique aspects.

"Yes, but this poison is so potent that even Sai Hua Tuo from the Demon Suppression Division can't detect it, and detoxification pills have no effect. I can only suppress it with my Qi and Blood."

Ye Xiaofan nodded and said.

Tie Wuqing put down Ye Xiaofan's arm and fell into thought.

It was as if she was searching her mind for what kind of poison Ye Xiaofan had.

Luo Ming and the others didn't dare to make a sound and just looked at Tie Wuqing anxiously.

Ye Xiaofan wasn't too worried. The first time was unfamiliar, but the second time was familiar. As long as his Qi and Blood stabilized, he could suppress the remaining poison again and extend his lifespan.

"I can't tell what kind of poison it is. I have a low-grade first-rank detoxification pill here. Try taking it to see if it can detoxify you."

Tie Wuqing said as she took out a jade bottle from her embrace and poured out a green pill.

"Guild Leader Tie, there's no need to spend money. This poison won't take my life."

Although Ye Xiaofan hadn't cultivated for many days, he still knew the preciousness of pills.

The Qi and Blood Pills they usually used for cultivation were just simple mixtures of medicinal ingredients, not truly refined pills.

Even the lowest-grade first-rank pills could only be refined by Foundation Establishment cultivators who had cultivated their divine sense.

The legendary ninth-rank pills could only be refined by immortals.

"Stop dawdling!"

Tie Wuqing wasn't a soft-hearted person. She had her own considerations. Her own affairs were not to be trifled with, and she might need his help in the future.

Now was the time to invest in him while he was weak; it wouldn't be a loss.

So, she pinched Ye Xiaofan's chin and stuffed the pill into his mouth.

The pill dissolved upon entering his mouth, and an incredibly pure energy instantly swept through his entire body. Ye Xiaofan felt a warmth all over, similar to the feeling when he first broke through to Body Refinement First Layer.

Without any further thought, he immediately closed his eyes and pretended to cultivate.

There was no other way; if he said that he could cultivate just by breathing, no one would believe him, so he could only put on a show.

At this time, the others cleaned up the remaining demons, helped their heavily injured comrades to the side, and then surrounded them.

Although there were many demons that attacked this time, thanks to Ye Xiaofan's terrifying strength, no one died.

The heavily injured were only so because they were caught in the crossfire when the humanoid demon chased Ye Xiaofan.

Half an incense stick's time later, Ye Xiaofan opened his eyes, suddenly spat out a mouthful of black blood, and his complexion visibly returned to normal.

On the panel, [Lifespan: Three days (Mildly Poisoned) (Suppressed, 30% burst if Qi and Blood power is used)]

"How do you feel?"

Luo Ming immediately asked.

"Very good."

Ye Xiaofan stood up and bowed solemnly to Tie Wuqing.

"Guild Leader Tie, great kindness needs no words. If you ever need my help, Ye Xiaofan, just say the word."

"Your poison hasn't been completely cleared yet, has it?"

Tie Wuqing ignored Ye Xiaofan's words and instead sized him up as he asked.

"Not bad, but I have a premonition that as long as I break through to Body Refinement Fourth Layer and complete Marrow Cleansing and Tendon Washing again, I can completely clear it."

Ye Xiaofan was in a good mood, as he would soon break through to Body Refinement Fourth Layer.

If it weren't for Tie Wuqing's graded pills, he felt it would take breaking through to Body Refinement Seventh Layer and undergoing the third Marrow Cleansing and Tendon Washing to completely purge the remaining poison.

This was assuming the residual poison didn't flare up again. If it did, each outbreak would add much more.

Now, with the aid of the graded pills, he was confident that he could use the second Marrow Cleansing and Tendon Washing to completely clear the poison.

Tie Wuqing nodded and said nothing more. He turned and walked towards his horse, took down his wine gourd, and took a long swig.

Ye Xiaofan couldn't fathom Tie Wuqing's thoughts. Why would he just give him such precious pills?

However, he had already made up his mind that he would repay this kindness tenfold in the future.

As for why that humanoid demon wanted to capture him in the end, he had no idea.

He could only assume the other party was crazy.

But he kept all of this in mind, and when his strength was sufficient, he would settle all scores.

Luo Ming glanced worriedly at the dazed Ye Xiaofan. Although he had been fighting demons just now, he knew that the powerful humanoid demon's target was Ye Xiaofan.

However, Luo Ming didn't say anything. He turned to the crowd gathered around and said:

"This is not a place to rest. Let's head to the mining camp first."

The enemy hadn't succeeded, and they might come back.

By then, there might be more than just one Body Refinement Ninth Layer demon.

The mining area had experts at Body Refinement Ninth Layer stationed there. If they teamed up with Tie Wuqing, they would be even safer.
