Double Cultivation
drop of blood
Some time later, after Senior Zhong fully understood the situation, he immediately brought them to Lord Xie.
"Have you returned?" Lord Xie did not expect to see them so quickly.
"Your Majesty, there is .... there is a problem ..." Senior Zhong did not know how to explain the situation to Lord Xie without angering him, as he would definitely go crazy once he learned of Xie Xingfang's condition.
"What's the problem? Speak." Lord Xie frowned, feeling the pleasant aura of Senior Zhong.
"Senior Zhong, I'll talk."
Xie Xingfang stepped forward and spoke, "Dad, to be honest, I have been cultivating my Heavenly Constitution since I returned, and I managed to turn my Hundred Poisons body into a Thousand Poisons body!"
"What ?! Is that true, my daughter ?!" Lord Xie immediately stood up from his seat, his expression with an ecstatic appearance that was rarely seen.
Xie Xingfang nodded, but on his face was a serious expression, which did not feel proud of his own achievements.
"It's no wonder why your cultivation has increased so much lately in such a short period of time!" Lord Xie was on the verge of a dance of excitement. "This is something worth celebrating! I'll—"
"Dad, I'm not done yet," Xie Xingfang quickly interrupted with a frown.
"Although I have reached the Thousand Poison Body, due to my negligence during cultivating, I have caused damage to my body. If not treated, I will most likely perish within five years!"
When Xie Xingfang finally revealed the true situation, Lord Xie's entire body and expression froze, almost like he had turned into a stone statue.
"A-A-What are you …?" Lord Xie nearly fell to his knees in shock.
"My body is currently being poisoned" he continued.
"How is it possible ?! Your body should be immune to all poisons!" Lord Xie quickly said.
"That .. I can't explain ..." she shook her head.
"This ... this is too sudden! How long have you known about this ?! Why are you just saying this to me now?" Lord Xie became angry.
Xie Xingfang sighed and said, "I learned of this a few minutes ago as well. If it wasn't for him, I would have continued to live in absolute ignorance!"
When Lord Xie noticed Xie Xingfang pointing at Su Yang, his anger surged.
"Su Yang! It better not be one of your actions!" he roars.
"Dad! There was no reason for him to lie! After all, Su Yang was the one who gave me Immortal-grade techniques to cultivate my Heavenly Constitution!"
"What ?! He gave you an Immortal-grade technique ?!" Lord Xie was shocked.
The Immortal-grade technique was something that even his Xie family would be desperately trying to obtain! He finally understood why Xie Xingfang acted that way when around Su Yang.
Su Yang remained calm and spoke in a clear voice, "I can feel doubt on all of you."
He then turned to look at Xie Xingfang and said, "That includes you."
"…" Xie Xingfang opened his mouth but could not make a sound.
"Give me your hand," suddenly Su Yang said.
"I will cut a small gap in your finger – enough for a few drops of blood," Su Yang said as he picked up the dagger.
"What did you do to Young Miss ?!"
"Fuck! If you dare to hurt my daughter, I will definitely kill you!"
Not only Senior Zhong but Lord Xie also warned of his actions.
"i'll be fine!" Xie Xingfang quickly said. "Trust him!"
Xie Xingfang then turned to look Su Yang directly in the eyes and nodded, "I believe you."
Su Yang did not say anything more and made a small cut on Xie Xingfang's finger, causing a few drops of blood to fall on the floor.
As Xie Xingfang's blood touched the floor, a hissing sound could be heard, almost like someone was cooking in the room.
When the blood touched the hard floor, it immediately began to melt the floor tiles. It was almost like Xie Xingfang's blood had become corrosive.
"The floors! Melts!" Senior Zhong pointed to the ground with his entire arm trembling.
"Geez!" Lord Xie could hardly believe his eyes, and Xie Xingfang nearly fell to his feet in shock.
"I-I-This was caused by my blood …?" Xie Xingfang covered his mouth with his other hand.
"If it wasn't for your Thousand Poison Body, your body wouldn't have been able to withstand this poison for even a minute!" said Su Yang.
After a long silence in the room from shock, Lord Xie spoke in a hoarse voice, "Cure ..we need to find the cure now!"
"Senior Zhong! I want all the best doctors on the continent to come here as soon as possible! We need to find a way to cure my daughter before .. shit!" Lord Xie started to panic.
"Dad, relax! Su Yang already has a method to cure my poison!" Xie Xingfang quickly said.
"REally?!" Lord Xie no longer bore the aura of the ruler and approached Su Yang with an anxious father expression. "Tell me! How do we cure my daughter ?! I'll give you anything if you heal him!"
"I've written a list of the things we need to cure the poison. Find it first, then we can proceed to the next step," Su Yang said.
Xie Xingfang took out a piece of paper and showed it to Lord Xie, who almost choked when he saw the rare potion on the list.
"Forget another herb that is rarely seen even in the biggest markets, what is a Demonic Blood Ginseng? I've never even heard of such a drug before!"
"Focus on other herbs. You can make me worry about the Demonic Blood Ginseng." Su Yang suddenly said.
"W-really?" Lord Xie looked at him with doubtful eyes. He still could not trust Su Yang completely.
"Since I am the one who gave him the technique to cultivate, I also share the responsibility in all of this." Su Yang shrugged, and he continued, "And even though he might have up to five years, I suggest you to gather all of them within a year, or he would have to endure intense pain for the next few years until he died. "
"…"
Everyone in the room forcefully swallowed their saliva, especially Xie Xingfang, who nearly fainted after hearing that he would suffer greatly later.
