You've been poisoned.
Xu Long pretended to take Liu Jinyuan's pulse. He said the poison had penetrated into his lungs and internal organs. If it weren't for the dual suppression of his Internal Force and demonic power, it would probably have completely invaded his internal organs.
By then, it will be very difficult to save them.
Is it curable?
Caiyi was standing next to her, couldn't help but speak up.
"You don't need to pretend. If it weren't for you, my cousin wouldn't have gotten hurt."
Lin Yueru snorted coldly, her attitude quite unfriendly.
And that was indeed the case. If it weren't for saving Caiyi, that Poison Lady wouldn't have held a grudge and bitten Liu Jinyuan.
"Alright, what's past is past."
Liu Jinyuan reprimanded her, Lin Yueru could only suppress her anger.
"Oh."
Seeing this, Xu Long sighed helplessly.
In ancient times, wealthy men often had three wives and four concubines. The three wives were divided into one principal wife and two secondary wives, with the principal wife holding the highest status, followed by the second and third wives, and the concubines having a status slightly better than maids.
Judging from the attitudes of the others, it's clear that Caiyi is the butterfly that was rescued.
" The Poison Lady's poison isn't difficult to cure, but since she harbors resentment towards you, even if you're cured, she'll definitely find a chance to take revenge."
Xu Long took out the Wood Qi Bottle and poured out the liquid inside.
This thing hasn't been used in a long time; it would be quite suitable for treating Liu Jinyuan's injuries.
His body was eroded by toxins, resulting in damage to his vital energy.
If the toxins are removed directly, it can easily damage the foundation.
Therefore, Xu Long planned to replenish his vital energy first, and then detoxify him.
"Does Master know about the Poison Lady?"
Upon hearing Xu Long's words, a look of surprise appeared on Liu Jinyuan's face.
"Besides seeing you, the only other reason I came to Chang'an this time is for the Poison Lady."
Xu Long pushed the bowl filled with the sap from the Wood Qi Bottle in front of Liu Jinyuan, "Drink it."
"Um."
Liu Jinyuan nodded and drank it all in one gulp without hesitation.
After drinking the liquid, his originally pale face immediately regained its color, and the dense aura of death around him dissipated considerably.
"What is this? I feel much better."
Liu Jinyuan said something, then coughed violently.
"Cousin, cousin! What did you give me to drink, you bastard?"
Lin Yueru shouted angrily, her face full of panic.
Caiyi remained motionless, only gently patting Liu Jinyuan's back.
"Wow!"
After coughing violently a few times, Liu Jinyuan opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of foul blood.
The stench was overwhelming and nauseating.
This is caused by the intense vitality forcibly eliminating toxins from the body. Although it cannot be cured, it can allow Liu Jinyuan to hold on for a while longer.
"Thank you, sir. I feel much better."
Liu Jinyuan waved his hand, feeling more relaxed than ever before.
"If the toxins invade your lungs and internal organs, removing them all at once will damage your vital energy. I'll give you some tonics first; you'll be weak for at most two days after the toxins are detoxified."
After Xu Long finished speaking, he pointed his finger at Liu Jinyuan's chest.
The Curse Speech Technique was activated, and the speed within Liu Jinyuan's body immediately dissipated.
"Call!"
Liu Jinyuan exhaled a large breath of stale air, his body swayed, and he almost fell to the ground.
"It's healed! It actually is healed!"
After taking Liu Jinyuan's pulse, Caiyi's face was filled with surprise and delight.
The Poison Lady possesses a thousand years of cultivation; her greatest strength lies in poison.
This man so easily cured a terrible poison that even Caiyi, a thousand-year-old fairy, couldn't neutralize.
I can't even imagine!
"He just needs to rest at home for a couple of days; he shouldn't practice martial arts. Yueru, you keep an eye on him."
After Xu Long finished speaking, he turned to Caiyi, "You're coming with me to find the Poison Lady."
"Um!"
"Um!"
Lin Yueru and Caiyi both nodded in agreement, each with their own thoughts.
After leaving the scholar's residence, Caiyi remained silent.
Her wish to repay the debt of gratitude was dashed, leaving her feeling extremely melancholy.
There are many ways to repay a debt of gratitude; you don't necessarily have to marry him.
Xu Long suddenly spoke up, "You could actually try another approach, like marrying his son. If you can't be his wife, being his daughter-in-law is fine too."
"Um?"
Caiyi was taken aback when she heard Xu Long's words.
Marry his son?
It doesn't seem like it's impossible!
"Besides that, you can teach him some fairy magic and the technique of making nectar. Although it can't repay the debt of saving his life, it can be a long-term relationship."
"That seems to make sense."
Caiyi murmured to herself, beginning to be led astray.
The human and the demon moved very quickly, covering a distance of more than ten miles in the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea.
"Ahead lies the Poison Lady's cave. She has cultivated for a thousand years and possesses immense strength. Her most formidable ability lies in her poison; contact with it is fatal."
Caiyi recounted the Poison Lady's methods in detail, but Xu Long, too lazy to listen, drew his sword and slashed out.
The Mountains and Rivers Shatter!
A hundred-meter-long sword beam tore through the air and arrived in front of the cave in an instant.
Rumble!
Stone fragments flew everywhere, dust filled the air, followed by an angry roar.
"Who goes there?! How dare they wreck my cave!"
Without uttering a single unnecessary word, Xu Long swung his sword again.
Sizzle!
The sword light spanned a hundred meters and struck the Poison Lady hard.
The poor old witch was sleeping soundly when her lair was inexplicably destroyed.
Just as I was trying to see who did it, I was slashed again.
"This is outrageous! This is outrageous! I'm always the one bullying others, this is the first time someone has come to my door to beat me up."
The Poison Lady trembled with rage, her chest nearly bursting.
Enraged, the Poison Lady flung out a spider web.
This is one of her trump cards; it's extremely tough and also highly poisonous.
Ordinary things will be paralyzed upon contact, and they can only watch helplessly as they are eaten piece by piece.
However, Xu Long was no ordinary person. The instant the spider web appeared, he instantly appeared behind the Poison Lady.
laugh!
The sword fell, but failed to seriously injure him; it merely tore his clothes to shreds.
It must be said that the Poison Lady has a rather impressive figure.
She has a slim waist, long legs, fair skin, and a beautiful face; and what's in the right place is big, big, big.
Enraged, the Poison Lady trembled violently, causing waves to ripple and sending shivers down one's spine.
If it were an ordinary man, he might have been captivated by the Poison Lady, leading to a battle filled with poignant emotions, like "flowers shedding tears at the passing of time, birds startled by the pain of parting."
However, Xu Long was a man who would turn his back on the toilet and not care about anyone else. How could a mere Poison Lady possibly sway his mind?
"Ah!"
A sword struck his back, and bluish-green blood immediately gushed out.
Poison Lady screamed, her hands reverting to their original form, and stabbed at Xu Long like sharp swords.
"A trivial skill!"
Seeing the Poison Lady retaliate, Xu Long chuckled, dodged the attack, and then stabbed her in the chest with his sword.
The intense, Power of Extreme Yang, Absolute Yin invaded his body, and with a flick of his wrist, Xu Long sliced off a large chunk of flesh from the Poison Lady's body.
"Ah!"
The wounds on her chest and back weren't serious, but the energy that had invaded her body caused her to scream in agony.
It was as if she had swallowed a huge piece of red-hot iron, leaving her unable to live or die.
