Detoxifying Lonely Goose

"Whew!"

Five hours later, Li Tianlan had finally refined the last trace of medicinal power from the Autumn Water Pill!

He let out a long breath and slowly opened his eyes. Flecks of golden light flashed and vanished!

Rising to his feet, Li Tianlan stretched his limbs.

After the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew's effects had been completely unleashed, all of it had gone toward enhancing his spiritual power. His Soul Power had not increased in the slightest.

However, Li Tianlan's control over his own body had improved by a tremendous margin!

At the same time, aided by his powerful spiritual power, Li Tianlan's alchemist rank had directly risen to that of a Second-Rank Alchemist!

Clenching his fists, Li Tianlan glanced into his sea of spiritual power.

Xiao Yan was still asleep and had yet to awaken.

However, Li Tianlan recalled something.

Before Xiao Yan had fallen asleep, he had told him how to detoxify Dugu Bo.

Simply put, he would first use pills to suppress the deadly poison within Dugu Bo bit by bit. In the end, it would condense into a Poison Pill. Like the Little Fairy Doctor, Dugu Bo would slowly be transformed into an alternative form of the Woeful Poison Body.

This process would take a long time, and in the end, it would even require the assistance of a seventh-rank pill.

But for the first stage, a first-rank pill would suffice!

With that in mind, Li Tianlan withdrew from his consciousness space and gathered some herbs from the outer region of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well!

He began refining Detoxification Pills!

Lighting the fire, refining the ingredients, forming the pill!

The entire process flowed in one smooth motion, as natural as drifting clouds and flowing water!

Now that Li Tianlan had just stepped across the threshold of a Second-Rank Alchemist, a mere first-rank pill was effortless for him!

After placing the Detoxification Pills into a jade bottle, Li Tianlan stood and left the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well!

Meanwhile, Dugu Bo was pacing anxiously like an ant on a hot pan.

Dugu Yan lay on a wooden bed, drenched in sweat until her clothes were nearly soaked through. The Innate Poison within her body had erupted!

Just like Dugu Bo, Dugu Yan had been born with Innate Poison in her body.

It was even more potent than Dugu Bo's!

Even Dugu Bo had no good solution.

After all... if he had, he would not have helplessly watched his own son die from Innate Poison!

Dugu Bo had survived until now solely because he was a Titled Douluo.

With his powerful physique, he could forcibly use the potent herbs of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to suppress the Innate Poison!

But Dugu Yan could not. She simply could not withstand the medicinal power of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well!

"Grandpa, I feel so awful!"

Dugu Yan's face was pale. She gritted her teeth, on the verge of passing out!

Seeing this, Dugu Bo gritted his teeth. A purple pill appeared in his hand.

This was a Detoxification Pill he had concocted, and its effects were ferocious.

If Dugu Yan took it, she would have a thirty-percent chance of surviving and enduring until the next eruption of her Innate Poison!

Just as Dugu Bo was about to gamble everything on this, Li Tianlan's voice rang out. "Grandpa Dugu, wait! I have a way to ease the deadly poison in her body!"

"What?"

Dugu Bo's entire body trembled. He rushed over, grabbed Li Tianlan by the shoulders, and shouted, "Kid, you have a way? What way? Tell me, quickly!"

Seeing Dugu Bo on the verge of madness, Li Tianlan did not hesitate. He directly took out the Detoxification Pill in his hand, passed it to Dugu Bo, and said, "Grandpa Dugu, I saw that you had deadly poison in your body, so I thought of refining some Detoxification Pills. See if they'll work!"

Dugu Bo did not hesitate in the slightest. He snatched the pill bottle, opened it, and took a sniff.

His face immediately filled with joy!

Merely smelling the pill's fragrance, he could feel the Innate Poison in his body becoming sluggish.

Some of the Innate Poison even directly dissipated!

One had to know that the Innate Poison within his body... even he had been completely helpless against it!

Detoxification Pills could only suppress it temporarily!

The poison's corrosion would grow ever worse, until it could no longer be suppressed and erupted completely!

"Good, good, good!"

Dugu Bo cried out in delight. Trembling, he turned around and fed the Detoxification Pill to Dugu Yan.

The moment the Detoxification Pill entered her stomach, Dugu Yan's pale complexion immediately improved greatly!

Dugu Bo could clearly sense the once-unruly Innate Poison within Dugu Yan's body.

Now, each strand was like it had gotten drunk, moving sluggishly as it gathered toward Dugu Yan's dantian!

In the process, the Innate Poison in the rest of her body had also fallen into a dormant state!

Even Dugu Yan's deep purple pupils had begun to turn much clearer!

"This effect... is truly astonishing!"

Dugu Bo let out a long breath, gradually calming down.

He lowered his head to look at the pill and was about to give Dugu Yan another one when Li Tianlan stopped him.

"Grandpa Dugu, one is enough!"

Rubbing his shoulders, Li Tianlan walked over to Dugu Yan's side. Looking at the soundly sleeping Dugu Yan, he said quietly, "The main effect of this Detoxification Pill is to continuously guide the Innate Poison into gathering at the dantian, condensing it into a poison pill so it no longer damages the other parts of the body!

However, Yan Yan's poison has already seeped deep into her bones. It needs to be done slowly. If it goes too fast, her body won't be able to endure it!"

"Whew, this is already quite good!"

Dugu Bo let out another long breath.

Turning around, he saw Li Tianlan's arms hanging limply at his sides and was immediately startled. "Kid, your shoulders... Right, I was too agitated just now!"

As he spoke, a rare look of guilt appeared on Dugu Bo's face.

In the original story, Poison Douluo was neither wholly good nor evil, but he was the sort who repaid kindness and vengeance in equal measure, and he was extremely loyal!

He had even helped Tang San fight against Spirit Hall!

And now, after seeing that Li Tianlan could cure his granddaughter's deadly poison, Dugu Bo had already begun to regard Li Tianlan as one of his own!

Li Tianlan did not mind much. He said to Dugu Bo, "Grandpa Dugu, don't worry. I'm not seriously hurt. A few days of rest will be enough!"

"It really isn't anything serious!"

Dugu Bo checked Li Tianlan's injuries and found that they were merely a few dislocations!

Yet he was still somewhat worried. He said to Li Tianlan, "Tianlan, your injuries make it inconvenient for you to move around, especially your hands. You'll need someone to feed you, help you get dressed, and so on. How about I take care of you?"

"You?"

Li Tianlan glanced at Dugu Bo and briefly imagined the scene of Dugu Bo taking care of him and feeding him.

He immediately shuddered!

Too terrifying!

He promptly shook his head and said, "Grandpa Dugu, there's no need. These are just minor injuries!"

"That won't do!"

Dugu Bo frowned slightly and said firmly, "It's settled, then!"

Li Tianlan froze. What kind of situation was this?!

At the thought of the hellish days ahead, Li Tianlan felt waves of dread rise in his heart!

Just then, Dugu Yan's sweet voice rang out. "Grandpa, how about I feed Xiao Lan instead?"

Li Tianlan glanced at Dugu Yan, who was both youthful and charming, and his eyes immediately lit up. "Grandpa Dugu, that works! My arms hurt a little!"
