Mandarin Duck Hot Pot Obtained

"Poison Pill?"

Dugu Bo thought that no one on the continent was better at using poison than him, so how had he never heard of something called a Poison Pill?

"That's right, a Poison Pill. It's essentially a place to store toxins. Senior, your martial soul is a snake, so you should know that Poison Snakes have a special place in their bodies for storing venom. That's why they aren't harmed by their own poison."

"And the problem with your family is that, during Martial Soul Possession, the toxins enter the body. But the human body has no Poison Sac, so the toxins spread throughout the body."

"However, if all the toxins in the body are gathered together, continuously compressed and condensed through Spiritual Power into a Poison Pill, then covered with one's own Soul Power, the toxins can be stored in one place."

"That way, you can use poison without even using your martial soul, and it won't harm you."

"Once the toxins stored in the Poison Pill are used up, you can use Martial Soul Possession again to refine more toxins and condense another Poison Pill."

"By repeating this process, you can retain considerable combat strength even without Martial Soul Possession."

"Of course, this method requires powerful Spiritual Power or precise Soul Power control. Senior, you've already become a Title Douluo, so this should be no more difficult for you than drinking water."

"Hmph. Whether your method works remains to be seen. Let this old man test it first."

After hearing Ye Kai's method, Dugu Bo immediately closed his eyes, sat down cross-legged, and began condensing a Poison Pill.

Before long, Dugu Bo discovered that Ye Kai's method truly worked. A small Poison Pill had already formed within his body. Although quite a bit of toxin still remained, his body already felt much lighter.

"Kid, what you said was right. It really works. But Yan Yan doesn't have Spiritual Power as powerful as mine. How should that be solved?"

Dugu Bo opened his eyes and asked.

"So, you can find them a Poison Sac artificially—that is, a Soul Bone."

"Forcing the toxins into a Soul Bone can achieve the same effect. But low-quality Soul Bones probably can't store much poison. Once the limit is exceeded, all the toxins may erupt at once. At that point, even immortals won't be able to save them."

"As for a Poison Pill, as long as one's Spiritual Power is strong enough and their Soul Power control is precise enough, it can be continuously condensed."

"And that brings us to the Sect Secret Technique I mentioned."

Ye Kai taught Dugu Bo how to use Tree Climbing and Water Treading.

"Given your cultivation, this training method may only have a slight effect on you, but it can be immensely useful for your granddaughter. It should allow her to condense a Poison Pill sooner. Though it may be small, she only needs to expel poison from her body regularly."

"But you must remember what you promised me."

Dugu Bo considered the two methods and found that, just as Ye Kai had said, they could indeed train Soul Power control. It seemed Yan Yan and the others really could be saved.

Seeing Dugu Bo's expression, Ye Kai knew the matter was settled. Both the Mandarin Duck Hot Pot and the immortal herbs were now as good as his.

"Kid, although this old man has not always acted honorably in his life, I am still a man who keeps his word. I will naturally fulfill what I promised you."

"Come with this old man tomorrow. I'll let you have a look at my Medicine Garden."

"Oh, and help Zong'er remove his poison first. Given his current physical condition, I'm worried he won't be able to condense a Poison Pill."

Although Nine Heart Begonia had heaven-defying healing effects and could even mend broken bones, it could not detoxify poison.

All the Ye Family could do now was heal the damage Dugu Xin's poison outbreak had inflicted on his body, but the toxins still remained within him.

"No problem, Senior. Please lead the way." Ye Kai had no objections. He could earn some Healer Points on the side as well.

As they left the reception room, Dugu Bo even snorted coldly at Salas, who had been waiting outside.

Not to mention that Ye Kai had helped him solve his family's problem—just the fact that he was a spy sent by Xue Qinghe meant he could not be treated the same as Spirit Hall's people.

Salas stared at Dugu Bo in bafflement. Had he played with poison so much that he had poisoned his own brain?

By the time the poison had been removed, it was already the middle of the night.

"Senior Dugu, then this junior will visit again tomorrow."

"Mm. Come over tomorrow, and we'll set out."

After bidding Dugu Bo farewell, Ye Kai returned with Salas to the Martial Soul Saint Hall. He instructed Salas to report the matter to Pope Teacher, then directly used Teleportation to reach Qian Renxue.

Before Ye Kai could even see his surroundings clearly after landing, Qian Renxue hit him with a Facial Cleanser.

The soft sensation pressed against his face, along with the unique fragrance of a girl, left Ye Kai frozen in place, not daring to move.

"Dugu Bo didn't do anything to you, did he?"

After releasing Ye Kai, Qian Renxue looked him over from side to side. Her jade-white hands immediately began checking his body, and she even intended to lift his clothes to see whether he had suffered internal injuries.

"Don't worry, Xue'er Jie. He didn't attack me."

Ye Kai hurriedly held down Qian Renxue's hands.

"Phew~ That's good."

Seeing that Ye Kai was truly unharmed, Qian Renxue finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"But tomorrow, I have to go with him to Sunset Forest."

At Ye Kai's words, Qian Renxue's delicate brows shot up, and she fiercely pinched his cheeks with both hands.

"What? You're still going to tag along with him?"

"Mmph, mmph! I'm only making a deal with him. I'm just going to pick up the goods tomorrow, and I'll come back once I'm done."

"Hmph~ Then you'd better keep me company properly after you come back."

Qian Renxue rolled her beautiful eyes, though she was not the sort of person to make trouble without reason.

Knowing that Ye Kai really had things to do, she stopped pressing the matter of him coming to Heaven Dou City without keeping her company.

"Don't worry. I'm not in a hurry to return to Spirit City yet. I'll stay here with you for a few more days, Xue'er Jie."

"That's good. Since you still have things to do tomorrow, get some rest early today."

As she spoke, without waiting for Ye Kai to resist, she tossed him onto the bed and began taking off her clothes.

"Wait, Xue'er Jie, why are you taking off your clothes?"

Ye Kai panicked a little at the sight. I'm still a child—what are you trying to do to me?

Qian Renxue's hands did not stop moving. "If we're going to sleep, of course we need to change into sleepwear."

"Shouldn't you at least avoid doing that in front of me?!"

Ye Kai could only turn around and no longer dared to say anything.

If Pope Teacher found out that he had watched Qian Renxue change clothes, he would probably be thrown straight into a dark room once he returned.

"Xiao Kai, I'll help you change~"

After changing, Qian Renxue went straight behind Ye Kai and began removing his clothes.

Ye Kai jolted in fright and hurriedly jumped off the bed.

"No need, Xue'er Jie. I didn't bring any sleepwear."

That was a lie. Ye Kai's sleeping robes were all inside his Soul Tool, but he absolutely did not dare let Qian Renxue change him.

That would be far more serious than watching Qian Renxue change clothes.

"It's alright, I prepared some for you~" Qian Renxue pounced on him.

Under Ye Kai's grief-stricken gaze, his resistance was mercilessly suppressed by Qian Renxue's Great Angel.

Even Ye Kai himself became Qian Renxue's trophy, caught and made into a dress-up doll for quite a while, letting Qian Renxue satisfy her craving.
