Clack—
Ye Tianyi quickly turned on the light and saw Ye Xian'er sitting on the floor with her eyes closed, cultivating. Blood had soaked the fabric around her waist. Her delicate brows were tightly furrowed, and her breathing was slightly unstable. Since Ye Tianyi had directly mastered the Cosmos Saint Art, with thousands of years of memories and knowledge throughout history in his mind, he could tell the general state of Ye Xian'er's injuries at a glance.
They were not fatal, but aside from the wound, there was a trace of black qi between her brows. She had been poisoned! Ye Tianyi then took a closer look at where she was injured. The clothes there faintly revealed a reddish-black color!
It really was poison!
Ye Xian'er sensed the movement beside her and slowly opened her beautiful eyes. They looked somewhat weary.
"You... didn't you go out? Why did you come back?"
Ye Xian'er asked in slight surprise.
"I said I was going out. I never said I wouldn't come back."
Ye Tianyi stood before her and looked at her.
In memory, whenever Ye Tianyi went out at night, he would definitely not return. That was why she had come home despite being injured. Otherwise, she certainly would not have come back.
"What happened?"
Ye Tianyi asked with a tight frown.
"Nothing. I was merely careless in the Demon Beast Domain and got attacked by a demon beast."
"That was clearly a sword wound."
Ye Tianyi said.
Ye Xian'er looked at him in surprise. Her wound was covered in blood, so the wound itself could not be seen. How did he know it was a sword wound? The clothing at the injured area was gone as well, so there were no obvious sword slashes to see.
Ye Tianyi then said, "You can tell from the blood beneath your clothes. It flowed out slowly instead of spraying like it would from a heavy blow. And if it was a demon beast, one capable of injuring you would definitely be high-ranked. Even if a demon beast of that level had claws as sharp as swords, the slash it inflicted on us humans would be extremely severe. So this was either a sword wound or a saber wound. Who did it?"
Although Ye Tianyi seemed calm now, he was holding his rage in.
"You don't need to know. Leave it to me."
"I'm not going to do anything. I'm trash—I can't beat them anyway. Just tell me who it is, and I'll go sleep with his wife."
Ye Xian'er: "..."
"Was it the Yang Family?"
"You don't need to make wild guesses. Go rest."
Ye Xian'er said weakly.
"I'll treat your injury."
"It's only a superficial wound. A couple days of rest will be enough."
Ye Tianyi then walked over and forcibly grabbed Ye Xian'er's slender jade hand. Her first instinct was to pull away, but Ye Tianyi was very strong, and he then gripped her wrist.
Ye Xian'er looked at him in surprise. He was taking her pulse? Did he know medicine?
After sensing her condition, Ye Tianyi relaxed slightly.
"Good. The poison isn't very potent."
Ye Tianyi then dipped his index finger in a little of Ye Xian'er's blood and held it beneath his nose to smell it. His brows knitted slightly.
"Purple Mandala."
Ye Xian'er looked at Ye Tianyi in shock.
She did not know what poison it was, but she only knew that Ye Tianyi had identified her poisoning just by taking her pulse?
"When did you learn medicine?" Ye Xian'er asked in confusion.
"Huh? Medicine?"
Ye Tianyi scratched his head, then smiled. "No, I was just putting on an act."
"Then how did you know I was poisoned?"
"Look, the blood at your wound is purplish-black. If that isn't poison, what is?"
Ye Xian'er suddenly understood.
"Rest properly. I'll think of a way to handle the rest."
After saying that, Ye Tianyi returned to his room.
He would think of a way to handle the rest? Ye Xian'er's delicate brows furrowed. What did he mean? The Yang Family, or... her poison?
"Purple Mandala... this won't be easy."
Ye Tianyi paced ceaselessly around his room.
It was a poisonous herb. Clearly, someone had smeared Purple Mandala sap onto a sword and wounded Ye Xian'er, causing her to be poisoned. This poison was not particularly violent; the poisoned person would only grow weaker and weaker. Given Ye Xian'er's cultivation, she could probably hold out for five days. It was not like certain poisons that could kill someone within an hour, or worse, turn them into a puddle of blood.
But Purple Mandala poison was extremely difficult to cure for one reason alone: Purple-Gold Silver Flower! Purple-Gold Silver Flower was the only cure for Purple Mandala poison! And Ye Tianyi was going to search for Purple-Gold Silver Flower tomorrow morning! This time, he had to find it.
Ye Xian'er's wound was not much of a problem. The poison was the main concern.
"Yang Family..."
Ye Tianyi lightly stroked his chin.
When he had first arrived in this world and searched through his memories, he had grown suspicious of the Yang Family when he learned that the Ye Family had fallen and the Yang Family had taken its place among the Four Great Families. But what benefit would the Four Great Families bring? None at all—it was just an empty title. So Ye Tianyi had dismissed that suspicion, because there was no profit to be gained. Besides, how could the Yang Family possibly destroy the Ye Family without a sound?
But on second thought, why did it have to be the Yang Family that did it personally? Couldn't the Yang Family hire powerful experts to do it? When Ye Tianyi mentioned the Yang Family, he had clearly seen Ye Xian'er's expression. He was certain it was the Yang Family. Ye Tianyi did not know about Ye Family's Matters, but at the very least, a Yang Family Member had injured Ye Xian'er.
He did not know the reason behind it. Ye Xian'er had been investigating all these years—how could she forget the Revenge for Family Annihilation?
Ye Tianyi would keep all of this in his heart, but the key now was finding Purple-Gold Silver Flower.
Ye Tianyi then sat on his bed, closed his eyes, and began cultivating.
He had already sensed the Wind Attribute. He could feel the power of ice, but he still could not activate it...
Early the next morning, Ye Tianyi opened his eyes as an aura slowly surged forth! His realm had actually risen to the Body Refining Realm Fifth Stage! He had risen five stages at once?
God-level Talent?
No, no! No matter how monstrous his talent was, it should not be this absurd!
It was... the Heavenly Fire Heavenly Water Twin Stones!
Ye Tianyi suddenly remembered that he had absorbed that Fiery Red Crystal last night. That was the only possibility. It must have been a rather high-grade Heaven and Earth Spiritual Object.
Fine, then. With his realm soaring, he was at least more confident about this trip! Since coming here, he had never fought before. He had not even unleashed the Earth Rank Martial Skill, Fire God Tribulation. This time, it was time to make a move.
When he stepped out, the room had already been cleaned. Ye Xian'er had cleaned the room despite being injured. Ye Tianyi even saw breakfast on the table.
This woman... knew he had to go to school, yet she still got up early to make him breakfast despite her injuries...
Ye Tianyi truly did not know how to describe it. He glanced at Ye Xian'er's tightly shut door.
"Sis, I'm going to class. Recover properly."
Ye Tianyi bit into a flatbread as he spoke, then walked out.
Inside the room, Ye Xian'er opened her beautiful eyes.
"Why has this poison already spread throughout my entire body?"
Ye Xian'er muttered to herself in extreme confusion.
The poison had clearly seemed weak, yet no matter how hard she tried, she could not use spiritual power to purge it. If this continued and she could not find the antidote, her condition would likely grow worse and worse.
Meanwhile, Ye Tianyi arrived at the agreed meeting place.
"Bao Bao?"
Ye Tianyi froze when he saw someone.
Mmm... I don't care, I don't care! I want Recommendation Tickets, wahhh... If you won't give them to me, I'll act cute, throw a tantrum, and roll around on the ground... hmph hmph...
