Miraculous Healing Pill

The burly man strode over, fury surging. He had gone into the mountains to train and been struck in the chest by a demon bull, leaving his internal organs in agonizing pain. Su Hao's shout startled him, and the tremor made his injuries all the more terrifying.

"Kid, making such a fuss—you want to die?" The burly man glared with bloodshot, bull-like eyes. A terrifying aura radiated from him; he had actually reached the peak of the seventh level of Qi Condensation.

As his aura spread, gusts of wild wind swept forth, raising a tremendous roar.

The surrounding disciples gathered around. Some looked at Su Hao with pity. This burly man had quite a reputation among the Spirit Creek Sect's outer disciples, and he was famously hot-tempered. The least severe fate of anyone who provoked him was having both legs broken.

"Hmm. Your internal organs are injured, and there's a trace of poison as well. Your injuries may not look serious, but if you drag this out too long and they worsen, it will affect your future cultivation."

Su Hao lifted his head and swept the burly man with a glance. With the Devil Master's inheritance, no one here could match his discerning eye. One look was enough for him to assess everything about the man.

The burly man froze. He immediately stopped circulating his spiritual power and stared at Su Hao, a flicker of excitement in his eyes.

Everything Su Hao said was completely accurate. He had been struck by a demon bull, whose horns carried a virulent poison. They had scraped the flesh of his chest, allowing the poison to enter his body.

Moreover, Su Hao's words were exactly the same as what he had heard from a sect elder. The elder's pills, however, had been priced far too high for him to afford, which was why he had come here to try his luck.

"Can you solve it?" The burly man's expression eased, and he asked expectantly, "If you can treat my injuries, Man Feng will reward you handsomely."

Su Hao smiled. Man Feng's arrival had drawn quite a bit of attention. If he treated him, it could serve as publicity for himself. He put on an unfathomable air and said, "If an ordinary person handled your injuries, they naturally would be difficult to resolve. But in my eyes, they are nothing. One pill will guarantee you emerge safe and sound."

"Please, treat me." Man Feng was overjoyed.

"My pills cost one hundred spirit stones each. No discounts, no credit. Money in one hand, goods in the other," Su Hao said calmly.

Man Feng's excitement did not fade. One hundred spirit stones was far cheaper than the elder's price. He immediately said, "As long as it can treat my injuries, one hundred spirit stones are no problem."

I priced it too low. Su Hao felt a little regretful, but the words had already left his mouth, and there was no taking them back. He took out some white medicinal paste and kneaded it in his hand into a pill, then casually handed it to Man Feng. "Swallow it. The effect will be immediate."

Man Feng was taken aback. The thing Su Hao handed him had no medicinal fragrance and looked utterly ordinary. What was more, it had been kneaded into shape right in front of him. Could this really treat his injuries?

According to the elder, he needed at least a second-tier medicinal pill to fully recover from his injuries.

He hesitated.

"Go ahead and eat it. It won't kill you. If it doesn't work, I won't take a single spirit stone."

Su Hao said this without even raising his head, his manner casual. It was the bearing of someone with absolute confidence in his own goods.

Man Feng hesitated. After a long while, he gritted his teeth and stuffed the pill directly into his mouth. If it did not work, he would smash this brat in front of him apart with one punch.

Yet the instant the pill entered his mouth, it dissolved. A cool current flowed into his body and circulated through his injured internal organs, making him feel incomparably comfortable. The pain immediately lessened.

That cool current also entered his blood. Man Feng clearly felt sweat seeping out of his pores, carrying a foul stench.

This was a sign that the poison was being forced out.

"This is a divine pill!" Man Feng was overjoyed, his excitement flushing his face red. He then looked at Su Hao, clasped his hands, and bowed. "Many thanks."

"No need to thank me. You pay, I provide the medicine. This is merely a transaction between us," Su Hao said indifferently.

"Give me two more. Here are three hundred spirit stones." Man Feng grinned. The healing pill's effects were extraordinary, immediate as a shadow follows its form. Cultivators who ventured out to train would inevitably suffer injuries. Carrying such pills would save them a great deal of trouble.

However, Su Hao merely smiled. "Sorry, each person is limited to one pill per day. If you want more, come back tomorrow. Besides, I only sold you one for one hundred spirit stones because your injuries were too severe. Otherwise, my pills cost at least three hundred spirit stones each!"

Man Feng revealed a regretful expression. This kind of pill was countless times better than the sect's healing pills. Even at three hundred spirit stones, it would be worth it.

After all, carrying something like this could save one's life at a critical moment.

He paid one hundred spirit stones and, before leaving, did not forget to ask Su Hao to save one for him. He would come to collect it tomorrow.

Su Hao gave no definite answer and continued calling out, his voice even louder. "Whether internal or external injuries, my pills work on them all!"

"Are they really that miraculous?"

"That pill looks so plain. It doesn't even look as impressive as a first-tier Spirit Qi Pill. Is it really worth that many spirit stones?"

The surrounding people watched the scene, their hearts wavering. They wanted to buy one to try, but feared the effect would fall short of what they hoped for.

After all, people had sold fake medicine here before, causing many disciples to suffer losses.

"Move aside! Move aside now!" At that moment, an anxious shout rang out. A man carrying an unconscious woman on his back hurried over. Even in unconsciousness, pain showed on the woman's face. Her injuries were clearly not light.

"My sister has been poisoned by Seven-Step Gut-Severing Powder. If your pills truly work, I'll pay five hundred spirit stones." The man looked at Su Hao anxiously.

Seven-Step Gut-Severing Powder was said to kill a person within seven steps. Its toxicity was incredibly fierce.

"This poison is far more serious than Man Feng's injuries. Even ordinary second-tier pills cannot cure it."

"Exactly. This poison is called Seven-Step Death. Last time, a disciple at the sixth level of Qi Condensation was poisoned, and being three seconds too late cost him his life. Why isn't he going to the Medical Hall? How did he end up here?"

The crowd broke into discussion.

The man grew even more anxious, sweat streaming down his forehead. "Please help her. If you can cure her, I, Li Dao, will pay five hundred spirit stones."

The sect also had a Medical Hall, but it was much farther away than this place. Furthermore, Li Dao had learned of Su Hao's remarkable pills from the departing Man Feng and had chosen the closer option.

Su Hao nodded and glanced at the woman. Her face was pale, her lips black. The poison had clearly penetrated deep into her body and fully spread. At this stage, ordinary second-tier pills were completely useless.

After hesitating, Su Hao kneaded another pill. Yet no one noticed that, as he kneaded it, a bright red drop of blood from the pad of his finger merged into the pill.

"Feed it to her!" Su Hao tossed the pill over, his expression still incomparably calm, as if everything were under his control.

"Gulp!"

The man immediately fed the pill to his sister and circulated his spiritual power, causing it to dissolve and spread its effects through every part of the woman's body.

"Ah!"

The instant the pill entered her body, a miserable scream rang out. The unconscious woman trembled, black blood continuously spilling from her mouth. She looked as though she might die at any moment.

"You!"

Li Dao was horrified, his bloodshot eyes fixed on Su Hao!
