As soon as Jing Pu finished speaking, the old man was so excited he almost knelt down to him. He looked at Jing Pu excitedly and said:

"Thank you, Senior."

Jing Pu frowned slightly at the old man's excitement:

"But let's get this straight first. If I can't cure her, or if I kill her, you're not allowed to cause trouble for me, or blame me, okay?"

Jing Pu was thoroughly terrified by the medical disputes of his previous life. If he messed up this time, and these people took their anger out on him, that wouldn't be good.

In reality, Jing Pu truly didn't want to find trouble for himself. The main reason he finally agreed to try was because of two points.

The first was that although Jing Pu was an ordinary person without grand ambitions, he still hoped the world was a beautiful place where everyone lived happily.

Jing Pu also couldn't bear to see such a graceful young girl wither away before his eyes.

Of course, this point wasn't actually important. The important thing was the second point... this damn bad luck!!!

Did they know how long it had only been since Jing Pu's house was finished?

Only a month!!

As the old man just said, if this continued, this Yun Qiyao would definitely explode and die. Jing Pu shuddered just thinking about the scene. Explode and die, wouldn't that splatter all over his courtyard??

It was like this: imagine you saved up money for most of your life, bought a house with a yard on the first floor, spent a month decorating it, and were just about to move in to enjoy life.

Then, someone on the sixth floor jumped off, splat, and landed in your yard, completely shattered.

Tell me, isn't that incredibly unlucky!

After Jing Pu finished speaking, the old man in black nodded repeatedly:

"Of course!"

After all, if things continued like this, Yun Qiyao would surely die. Rather than that, it was better to let this Senior try.

Moreover, to be honest, the old man in black hadn't known Jing Pu for even five minutes, yet he trusted him immensely.

It was due to the Dao Intent emanating from Jing Pu's every move, and even more so, the things he had seen and heard within these five minutes.

Not to mention the Demon Pill of the Spirit Transformation peak, that item's rarity could rival an Immortal Beast.

Then there was the Immortal Beast with True Dragon bloodline from before, and this Ping Pong table, or rather, everything in this courtyard was extraordinary. The old man in black inexplicably felt a sense of hope.

Jing Pu didn't dawdle. He immediately went to Yun Qiyao's side and lightly placed two fingers on her wrist.

Three seconds later, Jing Pu suddenly showed a strange expression and withdrew his hand.

Jing Pu's actions were novel to everyone present; they had no idea what he was doing.

Soon, the old man in black looked at Jing Pu and hurriedly asked:

"Senior, how is it??"

At this moment, Jing Pu walked quickly towards his house without looking back, saying:

"Wait a moment, I'm going back to get some tools."

Jing Pu then left. The people around him looked at each other, unsure if this was good or bad.

At this moment, Ling Jing looked at Yun Qiyao in front of her and strangely asked Ling Ju:

"Sister, what happened to her? Why did this happen so suddenly?"

Ling Ju looked at Yun Qiyao, who was pressed against the Ping Pong table, and frowned slightly:

"She was induced into a Demon Heart Tribulation by the Demon Pill. By the way, Ling Jing, go get that Spirit Transformation Demon Pill back. Don't lose it for Senior. It was thrown outside the door earlier."

Ling Jing nodded blankly and then quickly ran towards the outside of the courtyard.

Lie Chun, standing beside them, looked at Ling Ju with a bewildered expression:

"Senior Sister Ling Ju, what is this Demon Heart Tribulation?"

Although Lie Chun was a direct prince of the Blazing Dynasty, the Blazing Dynasty was only a small dynasty in the Northern Province. Moreover, Lie Chun had been immersed in Cultivation since childhood and was very ignorant about these matters.

Ling Ju glanced at Lie Chun beside her and said lightly:

"I'm not entirely clear on the specifics. I know that the ancestor of the Cloud Monster Royal Family offended a High Immortal of the Demon Race back then. Afterward, they were killed. Of course, that High Immortal of the Demon Race didn't fare well either; they were jointly killed by other High Immortals."

"However, before that High Immortal of the Demon Race died, they used all their strength to plant a Demon Heart Tribulation in all members of the Cloud Monster Royal Family. The Demon Heart Tribulation is a Curse from ancient times, passed down through bloodlines. The method to resolve this Curse has been lost; one can only suppress it layer by layer on their own."

Lie Chun was somewhat confused by Ling Ju's words:

"Suppress it layer by layer??"

Lie Chun was very curious. Ling Ju was not impatient with his questions, as they were all following Senior. Although Senior had never said he had taken the three of them as disciples, in reality, they all respected Jing Pu as their Master in their hearts, and Ling Ju was naturally their Senior Sister.

Ling Ju nodded slightly:

"That's right. The Demon Heart Tribulation has nine layers. The first layer erupts after ten years, the second after fifty years, the third after a hundred years... each layer is more dangerous than the last. The only way to resolve it is to ask a High Immortal to act as a protector using a special method, and then one must rely entirely on themselves to suppress it."

After Ling Ju finished speaking, Ling Jing, who had gone to retrieve the ball, returned and asked:

"Then, Sister, do you think she can get through it?"

Ling Ju frowned slightly and shook her head:

"Normally, she should only be at the third layer right now. For some reason, this is already the fifth layer. If she were prepared, it would be manageable. But as soon as she touched the Demon Pill, she directly triggered the Demon Heart Tribulation prematurely. Senior doesn't know that special protective method, so I fear it will be difficult..."

Ling Ju finished speaking, and both Ling Jing and Lie Chun sighed softly, falling silent. They took two steps back to avoid being caught in any potential blast later.

Meanwhile, Jing Pu came jogging back. Damn it, he had to rummage for a long time to find the Acupuncture Set the system had given him.

The main thing was that Jing Pu didn't get sick in the Void Space. He had only used this Acupuncture Set for practice. After that, it had been tossed into his Space Bag and never taken out again.

When Jing Pu jogged over to Yun Qiyao's side, without a word, he unfurled his acupuncture bag.

As Jing Pu opened his acupuncture bag, everyone nearby looked at the silver needles, each as fine as a strand of hair, with strange expressions. The sight of them made people feel a bit creepy.

The old man in black standing nearby looked at the Acupuncture Set and stammered, "Sen... Senior... what is this thing you have??"

Jing Pu, while taking out a needle, glanced up at the old man in black and said, "Acupuncture. Haven't you seen it before?"

The old man in black shook his head blankly. Jing Pu wasn't surprised. He simply nodded, not intending to explain anything to the old man in black. After taking out a silver needle, Jing Pu prepared to make his move.

However, the old man in black beside him swallowed hard again and said, "Senior... what are you planning to do?"

This old man in black was really troublesome. Still, Jing Pu understood. After all, when he had first stuck himself with these things, he had felt a pang of fear, let alone these people who had never seen them before.

Jing Pu immediately said, "Saving her, of course. What else would I be doing?"

Then, Jing Pu walked to the side of Yun Qiyao's head. Yun Qiyao's current state was not good; her eyes already seemed to have lost all reason.

Without further ado, Jing Pu held the silver needle and prepared to insert the first needle into Yun Qiyao's glabella.

However, before Jing Pu could insert it, the old man in black beside him looked at the scene before him and said in alarm again, "Senior... what are you doing now? Are you going to pierce the young lady's body with this silver needle???"

At this moment, Jing Pu's expression turned dark. He stood up and said directly, "No."

"No?"

The old man in black looked utterly bewildered.

"Then what are you planning to do?"

Jing Pu said expressionlessly, "I'm planning to kill her with one needle."

"What the hell, why are you talking so much nonsense!"
