Chapter 13

"Hmm..." Bai Zhen only felt his legs hurting terribly. Clearly, before losing consciousness, only his left leg was in pain. Now, why was his right leg also hurting? Could he have broken it when he fell from the sky?

Shaking his head to clear his mind, he suddenly realized he was tied up and immediately raised his head to shout angrily, "Who is it!" Then he saw the two female medicine apprentices from earlier, looking at him. The taller one had a cold expression, while the younger one was looking at him with concern.

His gaze instantly passed over these two and landed directly on the Fengjin Horned Snake behind them, which was already dead. This surprised him. It had already been killed by someone. Could it be that an uncle from the sect had arrived?

However, after looking around, Bai Zhen didn't see anyone else besides these two. He asked very skeptically, "Did you tie me up?"

"Yes, Senior Sister said we had to tie you up to wake you up," Lu Xiaodeng replied with a smile.

"Do you think this kind of thing can bind me? I am at the middle stage of Foundation Establishment. This kind of leather rope is a joke!" Bai Zhen said coldly. What were these two up to, tying him up with such trash? As he spoke, he tried to exert his strength to break the ropes.

Seeing this, Lu Yaohang quickly shouted, "Please wait, you can't break free from the ropes now!"

"What are you talking about!" Bai Zhen had never heard of someone asking someone else not to break free from their bindings.

"Do you still have any shame? If you struggle any more, you won't have the face to stay in Yunjian Sect," Lu Yaohang said fiercely.

Bai Zhen looked at her in confusion. Was he supposed to lose his dignity by struggling?

"Senior Sister, he's still carrying a stick. Should we take it out? What if he hits someone?" At this moment, Lu Xiaodeng squatted beside him, pointing at his crotch and said anxiously.

A stick?

Bai Zhen looked down and immediately understood. No wonder he felt a burning sensation all over his body; he had forgotten that he had been poisoned by the Fengjin Horned Snake!

What should he do? The poison in its fangs was a potent aphrodisiac. If he didn't use an extremely yin elixir to detoxify himself, he would die from a nosebleed.

He didn't have such an elixir on him. Instinctively, he looked up at Lu Xiaodeng and the others, and immediately realized that these two were even less likely to have such an elixir. The taller apprentice had tied him up to prevent him from losing control and pouncing on them to detoxify himself!

He would never do such a thing; he wasn't that kind of person with low morals. Bai Zhen was very sure that his character was flawless. However, after just a few breaths, his resolve began to waver. He thought that if he really couldn't control himself, it would be understandable, given that he was poisoned and his consciousness was clouded.

"Xiaodeng! Quickly move away, he's about to lose consciousness from the poison!" Lu Yaohang suddenly noticed that Bai Zhen's eyes were wrong. He was about to lose control!

Lu Xiaodeng looked and indeed saw that his eyes were bloodshot and full of danger. To prevent this sect member from losing consciousness, she picked up a stone and threw it at Bai Zhen's nose.

"Smack!" Bai Zhen's face immediately bloomed with red, and blood spurted out, instantly waking him up. He glared at Lu Xiaodeng and shouted, "What are you doing!"

"Senior Brother, please calm down. Your eyes were red, and you were about to lose consciousness!" Lu Yaohang felt like she was playing with fire. If he really lost consciousness, she might lose her virtue today.

Bai Zhen gritted his teeth and cursed, "Calm down? I'm about to die. What are you two still doing here, watching me die? Get as far away as possible, don't let me see you!"

What a good person, even when poisoned, he still wanted them to run away. But couldn't they at least go back and get help? Lu Yaohang said to this upright person, "Senior Brother, we can save you."

"Save me?" Bai Zhen paused, then immediately understood. How could someone like him not treat his savior well? Even marrying her wouldn't be too much. But now, instead of saving him directly, they tied him up and woke him up, as if they wanted to negotiate. What did this mean?

They were so opportunistic. He couldn't marry such a woman. It would be better to set some conditions, like asking for spirit beans or other valuable items.

Bai Zhen's impression of Lu Yaohang plummeted. Her cold face and obvious intent to bargain were too clear. People like them, who always focused on sword cultivation and wanted to look down on the world, hated such people the most.

"Senior Brother, do you have this kind of spirit herb?" Lu Xiaodeng squatted in front of him, holding a spirit herb manual and showing him a page.

It was a spirit ginseng with two roots, looking like twins. This was the Twin Ginseng, a precious spirit herb.

Bai Zhen sneered inwardly. Of course, they wanted something. He would trade it for this, "How many years old?"

"Originally, I wanted a thousand-year-old one, but I didn't know Senior Brother's cultivation was not high, so a two-hundred-year-old one will do," Lu Xiaodeng said hopefully.

She asked for a thousand-year-old one, and before Bai Zhen could react and scold them, she dropped the price to two hundred years. Asking for a price was one thing, but saying his cultivation was low was too much. Could they hurry up? He was about to lose control.

He instinctively looked up at Lu Yaohang. Her chest was large, and her clothes were stretched, revealing a patch of white. If his nose hadn't been bleeding, he would have bled from his nose now. What a hateful woman, couldn't she dress properly!

Lu Yaohang looked at his face. At seventeen, she suddenly realized a skill. She puffed out her chest and said clearly, "Senior Brother, I have some cultivation doubts. If possible, I would like to ask for your guidance in the future. If Senior Brother can give me some insights, I would be extremely grateful."

As she spoke, she leaned forward, exposing more of her chest. With her cold and clear face, she had an inexplicable charm.

Bai Zhen's entire body turned red. He was about to die from the poison. Under the influence of the poison, he stared at the white expanse of Lu Yaohang's chest and couldn't refuse. He subconsciously said, "Okay, can you save me now?"

"Great, thank you, Senior Brother." With his agreement, Lu Yaohang stood up and said to Lu Xiaodeng, "Xiaodeng, quickly detoxify Senior Brother!"

Lu Xiaodeng was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Okay!"

She grabbed Bai Zhen's tattered pants and tore a strip of cloth, exposing the bloody wound and his underwear. Bai Zhen immediately shouted, "Why her? She's just a kid!"

"What's wrong?" Lu Xiaodeng looked at him, confused.

Lu Yaohang, however, crossed her arms and frowned, "Senior Brother, what are you thinking? Do you want us to use our bodies to detoxify you?"

"If not, how do you plan to detoxify me!" Bai Zhen felt like he was being toyed with. What were these two women up to?

"According to the Monster Catalog, as long as someone sucks out the poison, my junior sister will help Senior Brother detoxify," Lu Yaohang said calmly, her attitude pure and indifferent.

Bai Zhen was speechless. If they wanted to suck out the poison, why did she deliberately lean down to show him her chest!

Suddenly, he remembered something and hurriedly said, "The poison can't be completely sucked out, and the person who sucks it will also be poisoned. She's just a kid, how can you let her do it!"

Lu Yaohang said curiously, "Senior Brother, my junior sister is not only young, but she only has one soul and two spirits. Even if she is poisoned, it won't matter. What desire could she have?"

Bai Zhen felt belittled. Although she didn't show it clearly, her eyes definitely had that meaning. As he didn't know whether to be angry or silent, Lu Xiaodeng leaned over and started to suck on the wound.

He thought it would be like ordinary poison extraction, sucking and spitting. But unexpectedly, all the blood in his body seemed to rush to the wound in his leg. Bai Zhen felt dizzy and fainted again.

Lu Xiaodeng sucked instinctively. Without medicine, detoxification was done this way. But when the poisonous blood entered her mouth, her eyes changed. She felt that this poison could be used to refine something.

As a spirit of a cauldron, she had a natural talent for refining elixirs. When the Fengjin Horned Snake's poison was in her mouth, her body reacted to it. A poison formula appeared in her mind. Although she only had one ingredient, the others were not yet determined, but the effects were already clear to her.

This sucking lasted nearly half an hour. She didn't spit out any of the poisonous blood. Bai Zhen's blood wasn't sucked out; only the Fengjin Horned Snake's poison was swallowed. Such a good thing, how could it be wasted? She would save it all for future elixir refinement.

As the poison decreased, Bai Zhen's dark red skin gradually faded, turning pink and then returning to its original color. He was pale from the injury and blood loss, but it was much better than being overwhelmed by the aphrodisiac.

Finally, Lu Xiaodeng raised her head, wiped her mouth with the back of her hand, and smiled, "Senior Sister, there's no more poison in his body."

"Good, thank you for your hard work." Lu Yaohang didn't ask why she didn't spit out the poison. After learning that Xiaodeng was a spirit from a senior, she wasn't worried about this.

For a cauldron, containing a bit of poison was no big deal. More importantly, protecting her identity from being discovered was crucial.

Xiaodeng's personality was too straightforward, and the risk of her being lured away was high. The senior asked her to protect Xiaodeng, not wanting her to be too conspicuous and be taken away by high-level cultivators. If they checked her cauldron and found a primordial soul, she would be killed immediately, and there would be no chance for soul possession.
