However, Bai Luo did not dwell on the relationship between the two for long.

As a physician, he still had a strong sense of professional ethics.

His gaze settled on the pale-faced Wu Feng.

"Give me your hand."

Wu Feng obediently extended her right hand.

Bai Luo placed his fingers on her wrist with practiced ease.

A faint, shimmering green light flowed from his fingertips and entered Wu Feng's body.

The sudden intrusion of power made Wu Feng's body instinctively resist.

But she was horrified to discover—

the power within her body could do absolutely nothing against it!

It could only let that power wander freely through her body!

That meant that if the person before her wished it, he could easily make that power erupt from within her body and take her life!

Bai Luo paid no attention to Wu Feng's reaction.

A moment later, he withdrew his hand.

He had already gained a rough understanding of Wu Feng's current condition.

"How is she?"

"Doctor Bai, is there a way?"

Ning Tian asked anxiously.

Her heart thumped wildly, as if she were awaiting some judgment.

Under her uneasy gaze, Bai Luo gave a slight nod.

"Yes."

"The poison in her body should be Soul-Eating Snake Venom."

The Soul-Eating Snake was an extremely rare type of snake soul beast.

Unlike ordinary venomous snake soul beasts,

this soul beast's venom was highly unusual.

It was not directly fatal.

Instead, it gradually devoured the poisoned person's Soul Power, turning them bit by bit into a cripple incapable of wielding any strength.

Eventually, they would lose all ability to resist and become food beneath the snakes' fangs.

Relying on this peculiar venom, Soul-Eating Snakes could even hunt soul beasts stronger than themselves.

"Although her condition is not good at the moment and the venom has already spread throughout her body, it is not completely untreatable."

Bai Luo spoke calmly.

Wu Feng's condition would be extremely troublesome for an ordinary healing-type Soul Master.

The reason Soul-Eating Snakes were known as top-tier predators capable of killing opponents above their level

was not only because of the special soul-devouring nature of their venom, but also because of another characteristic.

It was extraordinarily difficult to remove.

Once the venom entered the body, it immediately fused with Soul Power.

If, at the initial stage, one immediately cut off the circulation of Soul Power and confined the venom to a very small area, it could still be removed.

But once the venom spread throughout the body and fused with the Soul Power circulating everywhere, removing it would be as difficult as ascending to heaven.

However,

all of that only applied to ordinary healing-type Soul Masters.

It did not include Bai Luo.

He was different.

He simply did not play by the rules.

What special fusion? What complicated removal? He did not understand any of that.

Before Bai Luo, as long as a person was not completely dead, they could be cured.

The only difference was whether the case was troublesome or not.

"I can remove the venom from her body, but the process will take quite a while."

Bai Luo said softly.

If Wu Feng had not wasted time at Shrek Academy

and had come here immediately,

before the venom had spread to this extent, Bai Luo would not even have needed to say that.

Sigh.

His cultivation was still lacking.

It was merely Soul-Eating Snake Venom, yet he could not remove it immediately.

He still needed to follow a certain process.

A faint sense of crisis rose within Bai Luo.

He felt that he should speed up and further improve his strength.

If Ning Tian and Wu Feng knew what he was thinking,

they would surely be unable to stop themselves from complaining.

This was Soul-Eating Snake Venom, something even Shrek Academy's top healing-type Soul Master could do nothing about!

You could solve it and merely needed some time, yet you were still not satisfied?!

However, Ning Tian and Wu Feng did not know what Bai Luo was thinking.

They only heard Bai Luo say that he could resolve the venom inside Wu Feng.

The huge weight in their hearts instantly fell away.

They both let out long sighs of relief.

As for Bai Luo saying that the process would take a long time,

neither Ning Tian nor Wu Feng cared.

Being able to resolve Soul-Eating Snake Venom was already a blessing amid misfortune.

What did it matter if it took some time?

"Please act, Doctor Bai. Name your fee."

Ning Tian said somewhat urgently.

"The fee?"

Bai Luo thought for a moment, then raised two fingers.

"Two million Gold Soul Coins. How about it?"

Bai Luo had always charged according to this standard.

If it were an ordinary Soul Master, he certainly would not quote such a price.

A token amount would be enough.

After all, Bai Luo did not see patients for money in the first place. He only did it for the feedback.

But since he knew that the person before him was the Young Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, famed for wealth rivaling nations,

Bai Luo did not mind adding a little more to his own coffers.

"Two million Gold Soul Coins?"

Upon hearing Bai Luo's price, Ning Tian relaxed.

To an ordinary Soul Master, two million Gold Soul Coins was an astronomical sum beyond reach.

But to Ning Tian, the Young Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, it was nothing much.

To spend two million Gold Soul Coins so Wu Feng could continue cultivating in the future was not something Ning Tian needed to hesitate over.

She immediately took out a gold card from her Soul Tool.

"There are two million Gold Soul Coins on this card. I'll leave the rest to you, Doctor Bai."

Ning Tian's decisive act of handing over two million Gold Soul Coins stunned Bai Luo for a moment.

He could not help but sigh inwardly. As expected of the Young Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

He had treated countless nobles.

But Ning Tian was the first person who could take out two million Gold Soul Coins without even blinking.

He wondered whether this Young Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect or that young lady from the association was wealthier.

Suppressing the thought, Bai Luo accepted the gold card and chuckled.

"Miss Ning, you are paying in full already. Aren't you worried that I might run away?"

"This little clinic is not worth two million Gold Soul Coins."

He said it half-jokingly.

Ning Tian shook her head, her expression once more returning to the confidence expected of the Young Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Her tone was certain.

"Doctor Bai would not do that."

She was not foolish.

Two million Gold Soul Coins was not a small sum.

Since she had chosen to pay it all upfront, she naturally had her own reasons.

Bai Luo was the famed little divine physician of the continent, and his reputation spoke for itself.

Moreover, Ning Tian had heard about the nobles he had treated before.

She knew very well that the consultation fees he had accumulated over the years had long surpassed two million Gold Soul Coins.

There was no need for him to ruin his reputation over two million Gold Soul Coins.

"Miss Ning trusts me greatly."

Bai Luo smiled faintly and stopped teasing her, turning his gaze toward Wu Feng.

Since he had accepted the fee, it was time to begin the treatment.

"The treatment is rather special. Both of you, come with me."

Bai Luo rose to his feet and headed upstairs.

Though Ning Tian and Wu Feng were somewhat puzzled, they did not think much of it and followed him upstairs.

They arrived in a simply furnished room.

Bai Luo pointed to a bed covered in white sheets beside them.

"Miss Wu Feng, lie down."

Wu Feng nodded and sat on the bed as he instructed.

"Take off your outer clothes."

"Eh?!"

Wu Feng froze, her little face flushing bright red.
