Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 1352 - 1352 1311 Successful Detoxification

1352: Chapter 1311: Successful Detoxification 1352: Chapter 1311: Successful Detoxification When Lu Chuan jolted awake from the bed, morning had already arrived.

The bright sunlight streaming through the window appeared to him as a murky gray haze, though it cast a warm glow on his face.

Lu Chuan immediately checked his pulse.

Thankfully, there were no signs of the Gu Poison invading his heart veins.

Before he had completely lost consciousness, he had used his Spiritual Power to seal the Gu Poison within his Spirit Veins, preventing its spread.

“Mr.

Lu Chuan, are you alright?”

A choked voice came from beside the bed, making Lu Chuan only then realize that Ye Jiaxin had been sitting there all along.

Lu Chuan found it hard to discern her expression, so he leaned forward to take a closer look.

Only then did he notice that the young girl’s eyes were swollen from crying.

“What kind of foolish question is this?

Do you think I could be alright?”

Lu Chuan rolled his eyes—well, literally rolled his eyes.

His pupils had turned a grayish-white hue, clearly a sign of the Gu Poison’s affliction.

Upon hearing this, Ye Jiaxin broke into sobs again, throwing herself into Lu Chuan’s arms as intermittent hiccuping cries escaped her.

Lu Chuan froze in place for a moment and only regained his composure several seconds later.

With a helpless tone, he said, “I’m still a patient right now, can you try not to touch me?”

“I-I’m sorry.

I was too emotional.

My apologies.”

“It’s fine.

I understand your feelings.

After all, the fact that I’m still alive means your grandfather can be saved.”

“I… I’m not just happy for my grandfather, but also for you, Mr.

Lu Chuan.

Thank you for everything you’ve done.”

Meeting Ye Jiaxin’s gaze, Lu Chuan blinked.

Well, he still couldn’t see her clearly.

“Save your gratitude for later.

The Gu Poison hasn’t been entirely dealt with yet, so don’t celebrate prematurely.

Bring me paper and pen.

I’ll dictate, and you write.”

Ye Jiaxin didn’t dare delay and quickly fetched the paper and pen, laying them flat by the bed.

“Earth Fire Spirit Essence, Merciful Soil, Spirit Storing Jade Bamboo, Thunderstruck Wood, Beast King Ghost Mushroom…

And finally, the main ingredient—the Mysterious Feather Poison Bud.

You must gather all of these as soon as possible so I can begin alchemy and eradicate the toxins in both mine and your grandfather’s body.

You could say that our lives are now entirely in your hands.

Moreover, it’s best to carry this out discreetly.

I trust I don’t need to explain the reasons in detail.”

In truth, brewing the Detoxification Pill required several exceedingly rare ingredients, but given their scarcity, it would be impossible for the Ye Family to collect them in such a short time.

Lu Chuan had no other choice but to use his own reserves to make up for the deficiency.

“Understood, Mr.

Lu Chuan.

Is there anything else you need?”

“There is, but not for now.

Get to work quickly.

You should aim to have everything gathered within two days.

Otherwise, your grandfather’s condition will deteriorate further, and it’ll be hard to say if he can even make it through.”

With those words, Ye Jiaxin undoubtedly felt pressured and wasted no time in issuing orders, instructing people to buy up the necessary Spirit Plant and Earth Treasures in Luo City and its neighboring towns at high prices.

It’s safe to say the influence of a big aristocratic family was truly demonstrated at that moment.

For ordinary people, it would be impossible to afford even a single one of these rare items in their lifetime, but Ye Jiaxin managed to gather everything Lu Chuan required within just one day—and in large quantities, enough for Lu Chuan to attempt the alchemy several times without fretting about failure.

Unfortunately, Lu Chuan’s blindness grew increasingly severe.

Unless the Gu Poison was neutralized, it would only worsen.

By now, he couldn’t even distinguish the appearance of these Spirit Plant and Earth Treasures and could only consume them by relying on Ichikazu’s assistance.

“Tsk, the Earth Fire Spirit Essence is fake.

What exactly is that group of people under your command doing?

They couldn’t even distinguish this?”

“H-How could that happen?

Mr.

Lu Chuan, I’ll have someone continue purchasing immediately!”

“Forget it.

There’s no time to wait for that.

I have another way.”

Lu Chuan took a deep breath and instructed Ye Jiaxin to bring a bowl.

Under her bewildered gaze, Lu Chuan surprisingly took a dagger and sliced open his chest, extracting an entire bowl of Heart Blood with precision.

Throughout the entire process, Lu Chuan didn’t let out even the faintest hint of pain, as if the one being flayed open was someone else entirely.

“Mr.

Lu Chuan…”

“My physique is unique—my Heart Blood is supremely yang and pure.

It’s even more effective than the Earth Fire Spirit Essence.

Don’t worry about me.

It’ll heal soon enough.

Now, listen closely, and follow my instructions.

I won’t be able to see from here on.”

“Alright.”

At this point, Ye Jiaxin had no room for refusal.

Mr.

Lu Chuan’s repeated sacrifices, quite literally pouring out his heart and soul, had completely dissolved Ye Jiaxin’s doubts about him.

She now trusted him with unwavering confidence.

“I’ll maintain the furnace flames.

You follow my guidance.

Grind three ounces of Thunderstruck Wood into powder, then mix in ten grams of Heart Blood.

Add five grams of Beast King Ghost Mushroom along with the Merciful Soil, place them into the Pill Furnace, then pour in two ounces of Spirit Gathering Spring.

Now, take the Spirit Storing Jade Bamboo…”

The entire process lasted nearly two hours.

Lu Chuan meticulously guided each step, leaving nothing to chance.

Ye Jiaxin, for her part, remained calm and carried out his instructions flawlessly, without panic or hesitation.

The process could have been shortened by more than half, but Lu Chuan took into account that Ye Jiaxin was making her first attempt at alchemy.

Rushing her might have led to mistakes, so he deliberately slowed things down.

Thankfully, the outcome was ultimately successful.

As the furnace flames gradually extinguished, Lu Chuan waved his hand, opening the Furnace Cauldron.

Inside were two pills—one large and one small, one black and one white, which Ye Jiaxin carefully retrieved.

“Mr.

Lu Chuan, these two pills…”

“The black one is the antidote.

You can give it to your grandfather—by this time tomorrow, the Gu Poison in his body will undoubtedly be eradicated.

As for the white pill, it’s a Poison Pill.

You can discard it or keep it to use against someone else in the future.”

“Mr.

Lu Chuan, please take the antidote first.”

“What’s this?

After all this, you still don’t trust me and think I’d poison your grandfather?”

Ye Jiaxin hurriedly shook her head and explained, “Mr.

Lu Chuan, Jiaxin didn’t mean it that way at all.

I just believe that your health should come first—I absolutely don’t mean to suspect you!”

Lu Chuan smirked faintly and said, “Just teasing you.

Alright, I’ll take it first.

As for your grandfather, I’ll personally craft another dose for him.”

Without hesitating, Lu Chuan took the antidote pill and consumed it, showing no signs of concern that Ye Jiaxin might have handed him the Poison Pill by mistake.

Feeling the rich medicinal effects dissolving within his body, Lu Chuan exhaled deeply, his complexion regaining some color.

In truth, though called a Detoxification Pill, if an ordinary person were to take it, their toxicity would likely flare up within minutes, leading to instant death.

As the saying goes, “fight poison with poison.” That was the principle Lu Chuan employed here.

A typical antidote would no longer suffice to completely cleanse the Gu Poison from Old Master Ye’s system—it required something stronger!

And the results proved Lu Chuan’s methods to be correct.

His vision gradually cleared as light returned to his eyes, and the vitality in his pupils was restored.

The dark purple veins receded rapidly, and Lu Chuan spat them out.

Witnessing this, Ye Jiaxin finally revealed a relieved smile.

Thank goodness, Mr.

Lu Chuan was safe and sound.

Now, the Gu Poison in her grandfather’s body could also be resolved successfully.
