Huang Xiao naturally knew that curing Li Jiqian's poisoning would be extraordinarily difficult, and he had prepared himself for it. Yet only when he actually began did he realize that he had still been too naive and had underestimated the lingering poison far too much.
Most of the poison in Li Jiqian's body had already been neutralized, leaving only some remnants. Yet those very remnants made Huang Xiao realize that forcing them out would not be so easy.
