Chapter 1069: Chapter 1041 Tracing Back to the Yuan

"Ah!" The girl saw Li Chen and An Qin in the house and seemed a bit surprised, unable to help looking at Zhong Tian.

"Brother Tian, they are..."

"They are my senior brother and senior sister." Zhong Tian smiled at the girl and said, "It’s nothing, Vivi, my senior brother is family. You go ahead and get busy."

"Hello, senior brother and senior sister!" The girl named Vivi hurriedly greeted Li Chen and An Qin, then said, "You guys chat first, I’ll go make dinner..."

Saying this, the girl seemed a bit flustered and hurriedly went into the kitchen.

Watching the girl’s back, Li Chen frowned slightly.

"Senior brother, you noticed it?"

Li Chen hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "It seems there’s something inside her body."

"That’s right, she’s poisoned." Zhong Tian smiled bitterly and nodded. "And it seems like I’m poisoned too."

"Poisoned?" Li Chen frowned even more. "Are you saying that you’re left with such little True Qi because of the poison?"

Zhong Tian shook his head. "This poison is very strange. I’ve checked a lot of materials but haven’t found any record of this poison. Although I’ve already reached Earth Level, and my True Qi gradually stabilized after that outburst, now most of my True Qi is used to suppress the poison in Vivi’s and my body."

Vivi, whose full name is Zhang Yuwei, was originally a university student. But after finding herself infected with a strange disease, she was lethargic all day and couldn’t focus at all. Later, she took a leave of absence and lived alone.

Because of her health, she didn’t interact with friends.

She saved Zhong Tian because she had been cooped up for too long and met him while hanging out with friends to relieve stress.

Later, with the help of friends, she brought Zhong Tian back to her home.

Unexpectedly, Zhong Tian remained unconscious for three days.

Finding no identification on Zhong Tian, the kind-hearted Vivi didn’t call the police. During those days, she took care of Zhong Tian all by herself.

For a girl afflicted with a strange disease who was lethargic every day, this was already a very difficult thing to do.

Later, after Zhong Tian woke up, he gradually understood the current situation.

To thank the girl for saving him, Zhong Tian, who was originally kind-hearted, voluntarily stayed behind, helping Vivi with things she couldn’t do alone while trying to find a way to cure her.

But in the end, unexpectedly, he himself became infected with this never-before-seen strange disease.

"So you’re saying this strange disease actually forcibly divides most of your Earth Level True Qi to suppress it?" Li Chen asked.

"That’s right." Zhong Tian nodded, thinking that Li Chen was no outsider, so it didn’t matter to share these things with him.

"Which Hell are you in at the Earth Level?"

"Hell?" Zhong Tian was taken aback.

Li Chen bitterly smiled. He had forgotten that the details of the Earth Level were something he knew only recently. He helplessly explained the Earth Level divisions to Zhong Tian.

"So there are so many aspects to the Earth Level." Zhong Tian said curiously, "I thought Earth Level was just like Yellow Rank, Mysterious Grade. I was wondering why I, someone at the Earth Level Upper Tier, couldn’t even overcome a strange disease..."

"What did you say?!" Li Chen yelled, startling Zhong Tian.

Without waiting for Zhong Tian to speak, Li Chen continued, "You said Earth Level Upper Tier, meaning you broke through twice after reaching Earth Level?"

"It seems...that’s the case..." Zhong Tian carefully nodded.

This time, Li Chen was truly speechless. He suddenly leaned in to sniff around Zhong Tian.

"Senior brother, what are you sniffing?" Zhong Tian asked curiously.

"Nothing, just absorbing some good luck from your European heritage."

Li Chen suddenly felt that compared to Zhong Tian’s luck, he really was like an African Chief, incredibly unlucky.

Back in the day, how much Kung Fu did it take him to go from Mysterious Level Intermediate Stage to his current Realm? How many times did he narrowly escape death?

And then there’s Zhong Tian.

Li Chen sighed deeply, "The endless European luck."

Although An Qin didn’t know the specific meaning of Li Chen’s words, she shared the same feeling with Li Chen.

For a moment, Li Chen didn’t even feel like focusing on what exactly was afflicting Zhong Tian.

"Senior brother, please stop joking with me. I know you’re much stronger than I am. Hurry and help us find out what this strange disease actually is?" Zhong Tian said with a bitter smile.

"Forgetting about your senior brother for a pretty face, huh." Li Chen shook his head in desolation, then sent a strand of True Qi into Zhong Tian’s body.

"Hmm?" As soon as the True Qi entered Zhong Tian’s body, Li Chen’s expression became grave.

Indeed, there was something inside Zhong Tian’s body.

Seeing Li Chen’s serious expression, An Qin also stopped speaking and watched quietly.

The things inside Zhong Tian’s body were infectious; originally, he was infected by Vivi. But An Qin believed that Li Chen and Zhong Tian were different; Zhong Tian got infected from being with Vivi for such a long time whereas Li Chen... should be alright?

An Qin suddenly became a bit nervous.

Under the tense gaze of the two, Li Chen’s look first became serious, then puzzled, and lastly, they clearly saw Li Chen’s face suddenly turn extremely somber.

"Aside from your True Qi, is there something else helping that girl suppress this thing?" Li Chen withdrew his hand and said with a gloomy face.

Upon hearing this, Zhong Tian silently lowered his head.

At this moment, a small shadow appeared in everyone’s view.

"Eeya Eeya!"

Seeing Li Chen, the little one seemed very happy, bouncing twice on the table before jumping onto Li Chen’s head.

The little one was the Ginseng Doll.

Seeing the Ginseng Doll appear, Zhong Tian lowered his head even more.

"Zhong Tian!" Li Chen’s face turned serious. "As your senior brother, this is the first and last time I warn you. I don’t want to see such things happen again!"

"Senior brother..."

"Enough! This matter ends here." Li Chen snorted coldly.

Given Zhong Tian’s physique, he can naturally use True Qi to suppress that thing, but Zhang Yuwei is just a normal girl, and her body can’t withstand Zhong Tian’s vast True Qi. Thus, other drugs are needed for neutralization.

And for this neutralizing medicine, nothing works better than the Ginseng Doll’s blood.

"Forget it." Seeing Zhong Tian’s desolate expression, Li Chen waved his hand. "I know you were forced into it. But remember, no matter what, people should have their principles!"

"Yes, senior brother, I remember." Zhong Tian dared not argue, admitting his mistake obediently.

"The thing inside both your and the girl’s body isn’t any strange disease at all." After confirming the little one was unharmed, Li Chen finally spoke slowly.

"It’s not a disease?" Zhong Tian was shocked. "Then what is it?"

Li Chen’s face was somber. "Calling it poison is correct because it’s a kind of Gu Poison!"
