Chapter 184 Lijue Pill
In the quiet attic, Su Li was diagnosing Ling Qinglan. The more Su Li diagnosed, the more she frowned. Finally, she couldn’t help but bla him. She said, “Oh! Lord Ling is really desperate. You are still alive only because of the elixir I gave you. When its efficacy disappears, you will vomit blood and die imdiately.”
Ling Qinglan scratched his head embarrassedly. He was ready to die at all tis. Therefore, he was not flustered when hearing what Su Li said. He smiled and said, “You asked the waiter to wait for because you foresaw this, right?”
Su Li glared at him. She hit all acupuncture points of Ling Qinglan with fingers and then grasped in the air. A number of Wood Starbursts imdiately entered Ling Qinglan’s body. The amount of the starbursts was far greater than the amount of the starbursts that Su Li cured Qiu ng last ti.
The Wood Starbursts were linear this ti, which were totally different from those when she cured Qiu ng that day. Ling Qinglan did not recognize them. He was shocked by the earth-shaking changes in his body now.
When the green energy entered, his body was like a piece of land that was refreshed by rain after a long drought. His internal organs had been eroded by the ice toxin for a long ti. Now they were refreshed and rejuvenated. He could feel that his body was recovering to his powerful period at speed. The general debility because of abusing the ice toxin now was made up at one blow!
At this mont, Su Li shouted, “Open your mouth!”
Ling Qinglan imdiately opened his mouth. A dark elixir was put into his mouth. Then he felt a sense of severe itch spread from his throat.
“It itches!”
Even if Ling Qinglan’s willpower had been tempered by tolerating the ice toxin for many years, he couldn’t help but groan. His hands couldn’t help but pull his clothes and scratch the position of the elixir.
Ling Qinglan was stunned when seeing the scene.
The elixir was in his abdon. Outside the abdon, there was a black spot on the skin surface. It was spreading radially along the tendons and vessels. In the blink of an eye, his hands and legs were covered with strange black lines. Even his marrow itched.
“Ouch!!!”
Suddenly the itch beca severer, as if there were countless ants gnawing his bones. Ling Qinglan destructively fell to the ground from the seat. He huddled and groaned with pain.
“What... is... it?”
Looking at Ling Qing’s bloodshot eyes, Su Li sighed and said, “It’s the antidote of the Lijue Pill.”
Ling Qinglan was pop-eyed with shock.
Should there be the antidote of the Lijue Pill in the world?
He really wanted to ask more questions, but he quickly realized that he not only couldn’t speak but also couldn’t move.
His whole body was completely paralyzed.
Ling Qinglan thought that it was the effect of the black lines. He could only distract himself so as to ignore the physical pain.
Fortunately, at this ti, Su Li spoke again. She said, “The effect of the Lijue Pill is so powerful. No matter how serious the injury is, or how severe the poison is, it can prolong one’s life by one hundred days. However, after one hundred days, you are certain to die! No cure! Ling Qinglan, that’s all you heard about, right?”
There was a hint of consent in Ling Qinglan’s eyes. Because hearing the hearsay, he took the Lijue Pill with a determination to die.
Su Li shook her head and laughed. She said, “Do you know how the Lijue Pill is refined? Where is it from? Why does such a powerful elixir flow into the secular world?”
Ling Qinglan was suffering like in hell at the mont, but what Su Li said was really attractive. Driven by his curiosity, he managed to continue to listen.
Su Li said, “Let tell you. The Lijue Pill is refined by living people. First, burn alive people. Next, get their despairing hearts. Then, collect forty-nine hearts and refine them into one blood-red elixir. Nothing else!”
Ling Qinglan’s pupils shrank instantly. It ant that what he took was not an elixir but... human flesh!
He imdiately felt a sense of nausea, but his whole body was imprisoned and he could not move.
At this mont, Su Li continued to say, “The refining thod is secret. No one knows except for the elders of the Lianshi Cult. People who have taken the Lijue Pill can temporarily save their lives indeed. However, the ti they can live varies with each individual. You ss things up. Should you wish to live for one hundred days? Don’t ask for the moon!”
Seeing that Mr. Li did not forget to sneer at him at this ti, Ling Qinglan could not help but have a forced smile. He did not know whether Su Li’s words diverted his attention or not, it seed that he didn’t feel that itch. It no longer challenged his limit as before.
Su Li said, “People who have taken the Lijue Pill are usually marked in their body by the Lianshi Cult. When they die, the mbers of the Lianshi Cult will take the corpses back and refine them into puppets!”
Su Li’s smile was a little horrifying. Her words made Ling Qinglan’s scalp tingle. Su Li said, “It is because there is another na of the Lijue Pill, which is Baoshi Pill! People who have taken the Lijue Pill have great probabilities to be refined into rarer puppets. That is the foundation of the Lianshi Cult.”
“Ew...”
Ling Qinglan retched. He had never felt so disgusted. He had actually been set up from the beginning to the end by the Lianshi Cult. Although the Yinmo Cult was as powerful as the Hehuan Sect and the Lianshi Cult, the cult’s inside information was still worse than theirs.
“Eh, can I speak?”
Ling Qinglan suddenly realized that and spoke with surprise. Su Li smiled and said, “It seems that the person who gave you the Lijue Pill is not a so powerful elder of the Lianshi Cult. Otherwise, the imprint should not be eliminated easily. In the future, rember that you cannot eat the elixir given by strangers.”
Ling Qinglan looked ashad and lowered his head. He said, “I see.”
He thought that the old man was a hermit. It turned out that he coveted his body.
At this mont, he suddenly felt that his head was stroked by Su Li. Then Su Li said, “The imprint has dissipated. The Lianshi Cult can’t control you, but your anomaly will co into their notice. You should be careful recently. Next, just enjoy the process of detoxifying.”
“Mr. Li, you can rest assured. This matter will not affect you. The Yinmo Cult is not a pushover that everyone can bully.”
Ling Qinglan said with a deep voice. Then he realized that the last word that Su Li said.
Detoxifying?
Hadn’t he detoxified?!
Before responding, Ling Qinglan felt a sense of severe pain suddenly spread from his heart. He could not speak soon.
“When did I say that you were detoxified?”
Su Li hit an acupuncture point of Ling Qinglan, and then he couldn’t move. She said, “The Lijue Pill is one of the corpse poisons. It’s extrely difficult to detoxify. You have taken the Lijue Pill for more than ten days. The poison has gone deep into the marrow. To detoxify is easier said than done.”
Su Li explained and then sighed. She said, “Paralysis can only help you go through the severe itch. Next, if you want to live through the severe pain, you should rely on your willpower! For fear biting your tongue, I hit the acupuncture point. Ling Qinglan, the pain is actually much better than the severe itch. I will co over every two hours to refresh you. You should not fall asleep! In order to detoxify for you, I spent most of my property. I can’t afford one more antidote. If you really want to live, stick to it!”
When hearing Su Li’s last sentence, Ling Qinglan had a determined look that he never had before. He was like a man who was drowning for a long ti and suddenly saw a rope. Even if it was a fragile straw rope, he would catch it without any hesitation!
Be alive!
He had longed for the two words for a long ti!
Seeing Ling Qinglan’s expression, Su Li finally breathed a sigh of relief. She was not sure how much he wanted to live. Fortunately, he seed to see the hope. Then, he had a good chance to get through the torture of one day and one night.
After that, Su Li ca over every two hours and fed a nourishing elixir to Ling Qinglan, for fear that he had a nervous breakdown.
Ling Qinglan still felt that it was so tough for him to pass every mont. The boundless pain made him numb. However, he had to keep awake in order to avoid falling asleep.
Ling Qinglan felt that he seed to spend hundreds of thousands of years, instead of only one day and one night.
On the next morning, when the dawn appeared, the pain in his body faded like a falling tide. He relaxed and lay on the ground, watching the sun rising from the horizon.
He had never felt that the sunrise could be so beautiful and spectacular.
He managed to stand up. Looking at his creased clothes and the sweat stain on the ground, he forced a smile for a mont, and then looked relaxed.
The shadow of the Lijue Pill had disappeared finally. If he saw the old man again in the future, he would draw on the power of the Shalou Cult to tornt the old man to death.
Thud, thud, thud—
Hearing the familiar footsteps, Ling Qinglan turned around. When he saw Su Li’s exhausted face, he couldn’t help but feel ashad. He quickly stepped forward and made a bow with hands folded in front. He said,
“Mr. Li, I have nothing to repay you! If you need any help in the future, I’m ready to accept your assignnts.”
Su Li tilted her head and smiled. She said, “Well, I accept your promise. You have recovered to your health state before you took the Lijue Pill. Now go back and look for your master. You master should know how to deal with the ice toxin.”
Ling Qinglan rembered that Su Li only helped him solve the sequelae of the Lijue Pill. The ice toxin also threatened his life. However, he still did not understand what Su Li said.
“Does Ling Li know how to deal with the ice toxin?” Ling Qinglan asked. He didn’t believe what Su Li said, but it seed that Su Li was not lying.
“If I am right, that branch is an exotic treasure out of fire. It’s the branch of the Kurong tree. It can restrain the ice toxin. If it is used properly, the ice toxin in your body is not a big problem.”
Su Li smiled slyly and said, “I also heard that your hierarch has made an agreent with the little girl of the Su Family. As long as he found the branch of the Kurong tree, she will cure you. Just go ahead.”
Ling Qinglan heard what she said and was stunned for a long ti.
The branch that Ling Li had looked for turned out to be the treasure that could detoxify the ice toxin for him.
How could Ling Li imitate him? They both did things for others but didn’t inform them. If Ling Li had inford him earlier, he would not have taken the terrible elixir, Lijue Pill.
At that ti, Ling Qinglan was angry but laughed. He was ashad that he misunderstood Ling Li during this period.
He clearly knew that Ling Li was not a selfish person. It was impossible for Ling Li to drain his surplus value because he was a goner. However, at that ti, he was blinded by heavy shadows. He did not realize that, so, he made a stupid thing.
Suddenly, he thought of sothing. He hesitated and asked, “Sir, if the ice toxin in my body was detoxified, what should Su Qingtan do?”
Su Li heard that and smiled. If Ling Qinglan hadn’t asked it, she would not have cured him.
“Rest assured. I will explain it for Su Li. We are kindred spirits and fellows. She will listen to .”
Hearing Su Li’s guarantee, Ling Qinglan finally laid the burden down. He expressed his thanks for several tis. Then he bought two pots of first-class Liehuo Spirits and left the Linli Building with satisfaction. He forgot his original thoughts that he would never buy the wine when entering the LinLi Building.
It was a sunny day again!
Ling Qinglan raised his head and drank a mouthful of wine. The pungent wine flowed into his throat. He laughed and walked away from the remote lane.
After a day and a night, his path of fate was completely different.
Xuan Jingzhou, who looked greedy, popped his head out of the Zhouyue Winery and couldn’t help but lick his lips.
The first-class Liehuo Spirits... A rich man... He wanted to drink, too!
