Chapter 230: Chapter 227 Poisoning

Ling Qianxue saw that Ye Xuan seemed to be deeply poisoned and no longer hesitated, placing Ye Xuan’s arm on her shoulder and preparing to escape outside.

"Trying to leave?"

Mu Yan’s eyes flashed with a hint of cold light as she whipped her red long whip around, catching Ling Qianxue within its coil, ready to tighten it around her form.

However, just before the whip tightened, Ling Qianxue cleverly rose and dodged this exceptionally fierce strike.

Stepping on a table, Ling Qianxue flew out of the inn’s window and escaped.

Just as Mu Yan was about to chase after her, a figure suddenly appeared next to her, the same mysterious man in the black and white long robe from before.

"No need to chase,"

The mysterious man stopped Mu Yan, "He’s been hit with my ’Life Soul Dissolving Powder’ and there is no cure, he is as good as dead."

"Yes."

Mechanically nodding her head, Mu Yan stepped aside.

"You little rascal, thinking you can just ruin my plans and walk away; you’re getting off too cheaply."

The mysterious person sneered coldly, then his gaze fleetingly darted towards Mu Yan, a flash of murderous intent in his eyes, which quickly disappeared.

"Forget it, keeping you might still be useful. Anyway, alive you are almost as good as dead."

With a hint of mockery in his eyes, the mysterious person then vanished within the inn.

...

Having escaped the inn, Ling Qianxue was now carrying Ye Xuan on her back, running a great distance before entering a large restaurant.

"Ye Xuan, wake up."

Placing Ye Xuan on a bed, Ling Qianxue also appeared somewhat anxious, shaking his body as she looked at him with his eyes tightly shut and his face void of any color.

"Stop shaking me; if I’m not dead yet, you might kill me with the shaking," Ye Xuan opened his eyes and said weakly.

"Hang in there. I’ll find someone to save you."

Ling Qianxue’s eyes were slightly reddened. This was the first time she had seen Ye Xuan like this; he seemed as if he was on the brink of death.

"Don’t bother, who can you find? The poison from the Black Demon Sect isn’t simple; you won’t find anyone in such a short time."

Ye Xuan caught hold of Ling Qianxue’s wrist and shook his head. This poison wasn’t something a common doctor could cure, not even the Spirit Medicine Masters from the Spiritual Items Workshop could cure such a rare poison. If even he had no solution, then it was pointless to seek help elsewhere.

"What should we do?" Ling Qianxue was at her wits’ end, even Ye Xuan, who always seemed cold and detached, had never seen her so panicked.

Ye Xuan didn’t speak. He took out the Beast Soul Token from his waist and, with the infusion of True Qi, the figure of the Flood Dragon emerged, transforming into the figure of a man in green robes.

Looking at the suddenly appearing Flood Dragon, Ling Qianxue’s eyes also showed a hint of caution. The figure in front of her, hiding inside the Beast Soul Token in Ye Xuan’s hand, was somewhat bizarre to her.

But Ye Xuan had too many secrets, and for the moment she didn’t ask more, she at least felt no hostility from this man in green robes.

"Boy, the poison you’ve got this time is no trivial matter,"

When the Flood Dragon appeared, his expression was extremely solemn. "This poison, called Life Soul Dissolving Powder, is a very powerful rare toxin from the Black Demon Sect. I have only heard of it before, and as for how strong it really is, only those who have personally experienced it know. However, it is said that people who have been poisoned by this usually do not survive for an hour, even Martial Sect Masters can only endure for a few more hours at most, with no cure available."

When his words fell, Ling Qianxue’s pretty face also turned deathly pale.

Hearing this, Ye Xuan couldn’t help but give a bitter smile. "By this count, since I was poisoned just now, almost half an hour has passed; doesn’t that mean I only have a few minutes left to live?"

"That’s one way to put it."

The Flood Dragon nodded.

"Then it seems I need to hurry and give my last words."

Ye Xuan gave a faint smile, then turned his gaze to Ling Qianxue who was still lost in a daze beside him. "I’m about to die, don’t you have anything you want to say to me?"

"You won’t die..."

Ling Qianxue shook her head, tightly grasping Ye Xuan’s hand. The one who should have been untainted by the mortal world, the Ice and Snow Fairy, now appeared bewildered and helpless, her sad looking figure making even Ye Xuan inevitably feel a twinge of heartache.

However, just at that moment, at the position of Ling Qianxue’s forehead, strands of strange light suddenly appeared and disappeared, forming what seemed to be odd runes, caught precisely by Ye Xuan’s eyes, finally solidifying into a symbol of an eyeball.

"Uh?"

Ye Xuan felt a surge of surprise in his heart, but just as he focused, trying to discern what exactly was on her forehead, the symbol disappeared, and the brilliance also dissipated without a trace, as if it had never been there.

"What was that just now?"

Ye Xuan did not believe he was seeing things, the fluctuation that had emitted from Ling Qianxue’s forehead was definitely extraordinary. It was a pity that it was fleeting; otherwise, he definitely could have discerned something.

However, he only pondered briefly and did not think much of it anymore, perhaps it was just a hallucination after being poisoned.

"Alright, don’t worry, it’s just being poisoned, there hasn’t been anyone born in the Tiannan Region who can poison me, Ye Xuan, to death."

Unable to bear seeing Ling Qianxue so sad, Ye Xuan stopped joking, his expression becoming solemn. After all, he had been a Martial God in his past life, and if he were to be poisoned to death like this, he would be letting his old enemies laugh their heads off.

"Really?"

Ling Qianxue still somewhat disbelieved; she could sense how powerful the poison in Ye Xuan was, and just now the Flood Dragon had also said there was no cure. Ye Xuan’s words might just be to comfort her.

"Of course, it’s true. I wouldn’t joke with my own life."

Ye Xuan gave her a glance, then closed his eyes, beginning to search his memory for knowledge about detoxification. This Life Soul Dissolving Powder, as powerful as it was, was just a common poison, and within his Martial God’s memory, there certainly was a way to remove it.

Sure enough, after a few minutes of searching, he soon found a detoxification method. Although the named poison wasn’t called Life Soul Dissolving Powder, the reactions after poisoning were more or less the same.

"Qianxue, go fetch some herbs for me," Ye Xuan unconsciously instructed.

"Oh, okay." Ling Qianxue nodded, about to turn and leave, but suddenly her body stiffened for a moment before she turned back around. "You... what did you just call me?"

"I... what, you don’t like me calling you that? Then I’ll just call you Senior Sister Ling."

"No... it’s up to you!"

Ling Qianxue was about to say no, but then thought better of it, her beautiful face flushing red before she fled from the room like escaping.

Watching the disappearing figure, Ye Xuan smiled faintly, but soon his expression grew serious. If he had not been mistaken just now, Mu Yan must have been tampered with in some way; it seemed he must detoxify quickly and then find her.
