"Fatty, where's the short sword I gave you for hunting Soul Beasts? Heat it over the fire and give it to me. I'll bleed them,"
Flender swiftly called out to Ma Hongjun.
"No need, Dean."
"I'll do it!"
Before Ma Hongjun could step forward, Tang Lin stopped him directly.
Two Yellow One Purple Three Soul Rings slowly rose from beneath her feet.
"First Soul Skill, Blue Silver Overlord Sword!"
As the First Soul Ring flashed, Tang Lin already held an azure-blue blade in her hand.
"I'll do it!"
"My younger brother is my responsibility. I don't trust anyone else!"
As soon as Tang Lin finished speaking, the Blue Silver Overlord Sword stabbed toward Tang San.
If you loved him, you stabbed him right in the heart!
She drove the sword straight into Tang San's chest.
It was not that Tang Lin wanted to take the opportunity to kill Tang San.
It was simply because, for some reason, the poisoned blood had gathered right there.
With one stab, the poisoned blood shot out with a whoosh like an arrow.
At the same time, Tang Lin swiftly felt a surge of Life Energy enter her body through the blade.
Eh!
Having tasted the benefits, Tang Lin immediately drove the sword in deeper.
Sure enough, she absorbed even more Life Energy.
Then Scarlet Blood rapidly began to gush out.
It was even faster than the poisoned blood that had shot out just now.
"Seems like I stabbed a little too deep..."
"Press on it, quickly!"
Flender panicked and sincerely regretted letting Tang Lin do it.
He casually threw Yu Xiaogang to the ground and hurriedly pressed both hands hard against Tang San's chest.
The spraying blood finally slowed to a stop.
In his daze, Tang San regained consciousness and blinked repeatedly.
The moment he opened his eyes, he saw several people gathered around him, doing something to his body.
"Ah!"
"My throat hurts so much!"
That was Tang San's first sensation.
As for the sword in his chest, he had not noticed it yet.
Tang Lin muttered inwardly, You swallowed so many of Oscar's sausages. It'd be strange if your throat didn't hurt.
Your sister personally forced every one of them down your throat.
It was all for your own good.
"What's going on with my chest?"
Tang San then felt somewhat dizzy.
He had lost a little too much blood.
"Your sister was draining the poisoned blood to save you. The sword cut a little too deep."
Flender explained casually.
"Tang Lin, where's your Healing Blue Silver Grass? Let Tang San eat a piece first and see."
"Right, I forgot."
Tang Lin hurriedly took a small piece from the two jin of Blue Silver Grass she had prepared earlier and stuffed it into Tang San's mouth.
Tang San swallowed it down into his stomach with all his strength, continuing to make swallowing motions.
He could clearly feel that something had filled his stomach to the brim, and it even hurt when he swallowed.
After several attempts, he finally managed to swallow the Blue Silver Grass Leaf.
Once the Blue Silver Grass entered his stomach, its powerful Medicinal Effect swiftly took hold.
The wounds that had been bleeding bit by bit under Flender's pressure easily healed, and he cautiously let go of his hands.
The wound cut open by the Blue Silver Overlord Sword had fully recovered. Anyone unaware of what had happened might have thought the blood belonged to someone else.
"Phew!"
Flender finally let out a long breath of relief.
If Tang San had died, he truly would not have known how to explain it to Tang Hao.
This was also thanks to the powerful effects of Tang Lin's Healing Blue Silver Grass.
"Tang San, how do you feel now?"
"Other than feeling a little dizzy, I'm fine."
Tang Lin's eyes lit up at once.
The sword in her hand was about to stab toward Tang San's heart again.
"Dizziness is normal. The poisoned blood definitely hasn't been drained completely. Sister will drain some more for you!"
Tang San immediately scrambled backward on all fours, his buttocks constantly scooting away.
"Sister, I'm fine. I'm not dizzy, not dizzy anymore. It's all drained out."
"Really?"
Tang Lin gave Tang San a suspicious glance.
"Sister's sword is very fast."
"Really, really!"
Tang San nodded nonstop like a pecking chick.
As if to prove himself, he even stood up and ran a couple of steps.
"Sister, look at me. I'm fine, right?"
"Ah!"
A stone beneath his feet suddenly tripped Tang San.
Tang San had already been dizzy, and with one careless misstep, he fell to the ground with a bang.
Tang Lin could only shake her head helplessly.
So he really was dizzy. If she drained any more blood, she would bleed Tang San to death.
She turned to look at Yu Xiaogang again.
Yu Xiaogang, who had been unconscious, seemed to sense something and his body suddenly twitched.
"Tang Lin, I'll do it. I'll do it,"
Flender hurriedly stopped Tang Lin.
Yu Xiaogang's frail body could not endure the same kind of ordeal Tang San had gone through.
"I can control it better!"
Holding the overheated blade Ma Hongjun had roasted, Flender precisely sliced open the swollen lump where the poisoned blood had gathered.
Not a bit too much, not a bit too little.
He had often ventured outside before and had dealt with this sort of thing countless times, so he was extremely practiced.
Poisoned blood sprayed out, and he immediately kicked up dirt from the ground, scattering soil over it to cover the blood.
Yu Xiaogang regained consciousness soon afterward.
Even without Excessive Blood Loss, weakness was inevitable.
"What happened to me?"
"You were poisoned."
Flender rolled his eyes and casually handed the poisoned blade to Ma Hongjun, who was waiting behind him.
"Xiaogang, what happened?"
"How did you get poisoned?"
Yu Xiaogang swallowed, looking somewhat embarrassed.
On the surface, he seemed like someone who did not care about saving face and never argued back no matter what others said, but in truth, he cared about his pride more than anyone.
"What's wrong?"
"Didn't you go eat something good with Tang San?"
"Who ambushed you and poisoned you?"
Flender continued questioning him.
"Alas!"
Yu Xiaogang sighed and finally told them about eating Tang San's Blue Silver Grass.
"Tang San's Food System Soul Skill is poisonous."
"You'll be poisoned if you eat it, so Tang San and I were poisoned."
Everyone looked at Yu Xiaogang as if he were an idiot.
"Grandmaster, are you sure Tang San can summon a Food System Soul Skill just by saying that line?"
Oscar said slowly.
"I got the Soul Curse because I had that Soul Skill, not the other way around—that having that Soul Curse gave me the Soul Skill."
"You've oversimplified Food System Soul Masters."
"You've just been fantasizing."
Flender patted Yu Xiaogang on the shoulder as well.
"Xiaogang, it has nothing to do with the curse Tang San recited."
"It's entirely because you ate Tang San's Blue Silver Grass."
"All of its attached Soul Rings are Poison Attribute Soul Rings. Getting poisoned is perfectly reasonable."
"You've been a Grandmaster for nothing."
"Your theoretical research can't rely on theory alone. You need practical experience too—you're not a Food System Soul Master."
Flender slowly rose to his feet.
"You all need to be more careful too. Don't just imagine things."
"Ning Rongrong, you're the only one left here with a Tool Martial Soul. Don't go shouting 'Omnipotent Healing Glazed Tile Pagoda' and then use your mouth to gnaw on the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda."
Ning Rongrong's expression changed slightly.
"Dean, I'm not an idiot."
