Driving Out Luo Poison

Seeing Ya Fei leave, Xiao Tian immediately stood up and sensed Yun Yun's aura. When he found that she had not come here, he let out a sigh of relief. Since Yun Yun was not here, he could fool around again. He said to Lu Man and the other woman, "Let's go see what they're talking about." Then he nodded to Hai Bodong. "Old Hai, excuse us. We'll take our leave for now and visit again another day." "All right, little brother Xiao Tian, take care." Hai Bodong had become increasingly polite toward Xiao Tian. Xiao Tian's backing was simply too formidable; he had to cling tightly to it.

How could Xiao Tian, who knew the plot so well, not know that this was when Nalan Jie's Luo Poison was acting up? Since he had become Yun Yun's man, and her disciple needed help, he would lend a hand.

They arrived at the place where Ya Fei was receiving guests and pushed the door open. Ya Fei asked, "Why are you here? Weren't you waiting for me over there?" Meanwhile, Nalan Yanran merely felt that the person before her looked somewhat familiar, but did not think much of it. Xiao Tian nodded at Ya Fei, then calmly said to Nalan Yanran, "You're looking for someone who can save your grandfather, aren't you?"

Nalan Yanran exclaimed, "How did you know?" She turned to Ya Fei, who shook her head. Xiao Tian said blandly, "Is how I know important? You only need to know that I can save him."

Nalan Yanran was displeased by his tone. As the personal disciple of the Misty Cloud Sect's Sect Leader, who would dare speak to her like that? This man was far too arrogant. Yet when she heard that he could save her grandfather, she still asked with a smile, "Is that true? Even Pill King Gu He was unable to save my grandfather." "Then why the hell did you come here asking? If you think Gu He can't save him and nobody else can either, what did you come out here for? Go back."

Nalan Yanran said, "I... I'm sorry." To save her grandfather, she had to believe him whether it was true or not, so she lowered her proud head. Then she said to Xiao Tian, "So long as you can save my grandfather, the Nalan Family can offer any reward!"

Xiao Tian said, "I'm saving your grandfather entirely out of consideration for someone. This young master has no interest in the little things your Nalan Family possesses. Lead the way." Nalan Yanran was somewhat angry at his words, but she endured it.

Xiao Tian said to Ya Fei, "I'm leaving. I'll come see you when I have time." "All right, go on. I'll wait for you to come see me." Led by Nalan Yanran, the three of them headed toward the Nalan Residence.

After Xiao Tian left, Hai Bodong announced before all the family Elders, "From now on, Ya Fei will be the Mite'er Family's Clan Leader! If anyone has anything to say about it, don't blame me for being impolite." Icy Dou Qi spread throughout the room, and those who had harbored some dissatisfaction quietly shut their mouths.

Ya Fei understood Hai Bodong's intentions. He was only trying to curry favor with Xiao Tian. But she did not refuse. If she could not even put a family in order, how could she sort out the chaotic Black Corner Region?

At the Nalan Family's gate, Nalan Yanran led the three inside. As soon as she entered, she saw her teacher Yun Yun, whom she had not seen for a long time, and happily threw herself into her arms.

Nestling in Yun Yun's embrace, she said, "Teacher, I missed you so much. Where did you go?" Yun Yun replied, "Teacher went... Well, never mind that. Where did you go just now? I came to find you as soon as I got back. Have you been cultivating properly?" "Mm. Grandfather is seriously ill, so I returned home." She then told Yun Yun everything about Nalan Jie.

Nalan Yanran said, "Teacher, these are the people I brought to treat my grandfather." Only then did Yun Yun raise her head and see Xiao Tian and the others. She froze for a moment before asking, "Why are you here?"

Xiao Tian said, "If I hadn't known she was your disciple, I couldn't be bothered with this crap. Do you think this young master has nothing better to do every day?"

Yun Yun understood what Xiao Tian meant. He truly never involved himself in other people's business. If not for her, he really would not have come to help. She then asked, "But can you treat him?" "No. But I have Heavenly Flames. Just burn it a little, right?"

Nalan Yanran was astonished that her teacher knew this young man, who was about the same age as herself. They even seemed quite familiar with each other. But what concerned her more was whether he could heal her grandfather. After hearing his words, she grew worried and looked toward Yun Yun, who also did not know what to do.

At this moment, Nalan Su came out. Upon seeing Yun Yun, he first offered a salute and exchanged a few pleasantries with her. Then he saw Xiao Tian and the others. After learning Xiao Tian's intentions, Nalan Su said, "I implore you, young friend, to treat him. Nalan Jie does not have much time left."

Xiao Tian said, "Fine. Let's go." Lu Man and the other two women remained outside while Xiao Tian was led by the Nalan father and daughter into a room.

Xiao Tian looked at Nalan Jie on the bed. The old man's face was gray-black, and the aura of death had already appeared on it. It really was serious.

"Yes. Even Dou Huang experts would not dare touch something like Luo Poison. The old master has endured it for so many years; he has already reached his limit." Nalan Su added, "I wonder, little brother, are you confident in treating him?"

"No." Xiao Tian answered decisively, then added, "Whether he lives or dies depends entirely on himself. I can only help him refine the Luo Poison. As for whether he can endure it, that is none of my concern. You decide whether to treat him or not."

Nalan Su said, "I ask that you do your utmost to treat him." He bowed to Xiao Tian and stepped back. Although Xiao Tian's tone was calm, Sect Leader Yun Yun had said that this was simply how he was. Perhaps he truly could heal the old master. Besides, from the way Nalan Jie looked, he clearly could not hold on for much longer. Thus, Nalan Su pulled Nalan Yanran back and signaled that Xiao Tian could begin.

Xiao Tian did not waste any words. Heavenly Flames ignited, and scorching fire entered Nalan Jie's body. Nalan Jie shuddered and slowly woke up. Looking at the young man before him, he asked, "Are you treating me?" "Do you see anyone else in front of you besides me?" "Haha, interesting young man. Cough, cough. Can you cure me?"

Xiao Tian said, "You should leave it to fate. Whether you live or die is all down to your own luck. I'm only responsible for refining the Luo Poison for you. I have no interest in anything else." Though his words remained as cutting as ever, his actions were extremely focused.

Nalan Jie laughed. "Hahaha, good, good, good. Treat me without worry. Whether it works or not, even if I die, no one will blame you."

"Grandfather, what nonsense are you saying?" Nalan Yanran said from the side as she watched Nalan Jie. Nalan Su also looked at his old father with a pained expression.

Nalan Jie said, "You little brat, you still have the nerve to come back? If you hadn't gone to break off that engagement three years ago, would I have been angered into this state?"

Xiao Tian said coldly, "Shut up, all of you. I have no interest in listening to your family affairs. This is a critical moment and cannot be disturbed." Xiao Tian had no interest in listening to them argue.

Nalan Yanran wanted to say something else, but her father tugged her, and she obediently fell silent.

Nalan Jie had not expected this young man to be so bold as to yell at him, and he was momentarily stunned.

This boy may be young, but he certainly has quite a temper. However, as he gradually felt his body becoming more and more relaxed, he realized that just now had been a critical moment in the young man's treatment.

Who would have thought? Though this young man's words are unpleasant, his skill is truly formidable. And when he said he wasn't confident earlier, it was because he didn't want me to get overly hopeful and agitated.

A moment later, his formerly gray-black face slowly returned to normal. Nalan Su also saw it—his old father was better!

Though this young man has a strange temper and no respect at all in the way he speaks to others, he really did cure Grandfather! Nalan Yanran thought.

After Xiao Tian dealt with the fire poison in Nalan Jie's body, he stopped and swallowed several pills to restore his Dou Qi. Then he said calmly, "You're fine now. Rest for a few days and you'll fully recover."

Nalan Jie said, "Many thanks, young friend. May I ask what you need? So long as the Nalan Family has it, we will surely offer it to you!" I'm not Xiao Yan. The little things your family has hold no appeal for me whatsoever. Because Xiao Tian was powerful, he resolved the problem in one go.

Xiao Tian shook his head. "I already told your granddaughter before coming here. I only came to save you out of consideration for Yun Yun."

Nalan Jie said, "Then may I know your name, young friend? Should you need anything in the future, the Nalan Family will certainly help."

Xiao Tian said nothing and turned to walk out. Once outside, he saw the three women waiting there. Yun Yun stepped forward and asked, "Is it done?" "Of course. How could it not be resolved when I was the one who acted?" Xiao Tian said with a smile.

His attitude was worlds apart from the one he had shown the Nalan Family. At this point, Nalan Yanran ran out and thanked Xiao Tian. Xiao Tian nodded, then said to Yun Yun, "We're going back. Come back early."

"All right," Yun Yun replied. After watching the three of them leave, she turned back to Nalan Yanran and said, "Yan Ran, don't mind him. Xiao Tian is just like that. He's always sharp-tongued."

"I don't mind. He saved my grandfather, and I'm very grateful to him. But when we wanted to thank him, he ignored us," Nalan Yanran said.

Yun Yun shook her head. "There's no need to thank him. Didn't you ask your teacher who that man was before? It was him!" "What?! That young man just now?!" Nalan Yanran cried in shock.

Yun Yun's little face flushed red. Whatever she had thought of, she still nodded to Nalan Yanran. "No wonder he asked for nothing and still helped save my grandfather. So it was to please Teacher. Then I really must thank you, Teacher," Nalan Yanran teased.
