At this moment, Ling Jing ran over to pick up the ball. Ling Jing, seeing the scene before them, was also a bit confused. They looked at everyone and said:

"What's going on??"

Immediately, Jing Pu frowned and looked at Ling Jing, saying:

"Did you use True Qi to hit the ball again just now? Look, you made them spit up blood."

Ling Jing looked innocent and quickly said:

"No, I was just hitting a normal shot just now?"

Hearing Ling Jing's words, Jing Pu was inexplicably stunned. It seemed... that was right... that shot wasn't fast either, and didn't Yun Qiyao catch it too??

What does this mean??

Are they trying to extort money?

Jing Pu stood there, a bit bewildered. The elder behind Yun Qiyao rushed to catch the falling Yun Qiyao, checked her condition, and also saw the Demon Pill in Yun Qiyao's hand.

The moment he saw the Demon Pill, the elder immediately took it from Yun Qiyao's hand, his face full of fear, and said:

"This... you... why do you have this kind of thing?!"

Looking at the Demon Pill in the elder's hand, Jing Pu raised his eyebrows slightly... What's wrong with this thing?

However, the elder no longer had time to deal with these matters. He casually threw the Demon Pill aside, then helped Yun Qiyao to kneel on both knees, looking at Jing Pu with panic:

"Senior, we were presumptuous today. Please, Senior, do not hold grudges and save our young lady!!"

Save?

If it was to save, then... it was possible, because Jing Pu's Medical Saint skill had already reached the pinnacle. However... treating an ordinary person was fine, but treating a Cultivator... would that work?

Besides... isn't this clearly an attempt to extort money?

Jing Pu looked at the elder, who was so anxious he was about to cry, and frowned:

"What exactly is wrong with her?"

The elder was a little confused by Jing Pu's words. He looked at Jing Pu incredulously and said:

"Senior doesn't know??? The young lady's Curse is about to act up. We came seeking the Senior's help to suppress the young lady's Curse."

Curse?

Suppress?

What kind of nonsense is this??

Jing Pu had never even heard of these terms before. He was immediately bewildered and said:

"I don't know... How would I know about this kind of thing? I'm just a Mortal. How could I possibly know how to suppress a Curse??"

This is a joke, right? I'm just living my life peacefully here, growing vegetables, practicing calligraphy, painting landscapes, and playing Ping Pong with friends in my free time. Who spread the rumor outside that I can suppress Curses?

The elder looked at Jing Pu's appearance and listened to his words, unable to tell for a moment whether Jing Pu genuinely didn't know or just didn't want to help.

However, at this moment, Yun Qiyao, who had collapsed on the ground and was unconscious, suddenly opened her eyes. Her expression was somewhat pained and ferocious, and her whole body was emitting a black-red light, as if she was about to go berserk.

Seeing this, the elder knew it was bad. He immediately made a hand emit a cyan light and pressed it directly onto Yun Qiyao's head.

This action managed to temporarily suppress Yun Qiyao, but looking at Yun Qiyao's extremely pained and ferocious expression, it was as if she had lost her mind.

The elder immediately came back to his senses, so anxious he was almost in tears. He looked at Jing Pu and said:

"Senior, I'm really begging you. If you help us, you will be the great benefactor of our entire Cloud Monster Royal Family. Our Cloud Monster Royal Family will forever be grateful to you!"

The elder was on the verge of tears, and Jing Pu was also on the verge of tears. I really don't know.

How could I possibly know how to suppress a Curse? I'm not a shaman...

Jing Pu said helplessly:

"I really don't know... I've never even heard of the thing you're talking about."

Ling Ju, who was standing nearby, had not said a word from beginning to end. Ling Ju had been contemplating this matter.

The Curse of the Cloud Monster Royal Family was planted three thousand years ago. The Seniors of that era had probably already ascended to the Upper Realm, so naturally, they wouldn't know.

Ling Ju immediately looked at the elder, whose eyes were red with anxiety, and said:

"Senior definitely doesn't know about the Curse. Stop begging Senior. You should suppress the Curse for her using your own methods for now."

Upon hearing Ling Ju's words, despair appeared on the elder's face.

Although Ling Ju and Yun Qiyao were sworn enemies... Ling Ju's character was respected even by the Monster Race. If Ling Ju said that this Senior didn't know, then he definitely didn't know.

Jing Pu looked at Yun Qiyao's current state and quickly said:

"Let's help her inside first."

It wasn't good for her to lie outside. The elder nodded repeatedly at Jing Pu's words, and Ling Ju also stepped forward to help support Yun Qiyao from the other side.

On the way inside, Yun Qiyao was like someone having an episode, suddenly wanting to go mad from time to time. However, as the cyan light in the elder's hand intensified, Yun Qiyao calmed down slightly.

The group didn't go into the house; it was too far. They helped her to the Ping Pong table, removed the net in the middle, and then helped Yun Qiyao lie down on it.

As soon as Yun Qiyao lay down, the elder, whose hand had been emitting cyan light, couldn't help but be startled. He seemed to have sensed something and looked at the strangely shaped table with some astonishment. However, at this moment, the elder didn't have the time to be curious about such trivial matters.

At once, his entire body emanated a cyan glow, which he gently placed above Yun Qiyao's forehead. Streams of cyan light flowed into the center of Yun Qiyao's brow.

At this very moment, four figures dressed in the same black attire as the elder appeared in the sky. They descended directly into the courtyard.

Observing the scene before them, these four black-clothed individuals asked no questions and spoke no words. Like the elder, they approached the ping pong table and began performing the same actions.

Ling Ju, watching everything unfold, exclaimed in shock:

"Why is she so severe? By all rights, she shouldn't be on her third tribulation, but this level... it looks more like the fifth tribulation?"

The elder, sweat pouring down his face, gritted his teeth and replied without turning back:

"Yes... it is the fifth tribulation... Miss is different from others... Quickly, Qing Yi, use the Heart Protection Divine Mirror!"

As soon as the elder finished speaking, one of the black-clothed individuals immediately produced a mirror shimmering with cyan light and shone it towards Yun Qiyao. However... the effect was negligible.

At this moment, the elder, his eyes red, looked at Jing Pu, who stood behind him looking utterly bewildered, and said in despair:

"Senior... is there truly nothing you can do?"

Jing Pu felt rather awkward and replied:

"I don't know where you heard that I could save people, but... I do know a few things. However, my skills might not be useful to you."

Jing Pu could handle treating an ordinary person's illness, but this curse... how could Jing Pu possibly know how to deal with it...

Upon hearing Jing Pu's words, the elder looked at him, anxiously pleading:

"Senior, please just try. I beg you, I truly beg you. If you don't act, Miss might truly explode and die."

Looking at the elder, who was on the verge of tears from anxiety, and then at Yun Qiyao, whose face was contorted in pain as if she were about to lose her mind, Jing Pu swallowed hard and said with difficulty:

"Then... how about... I give it a try??"
