A few days later, the Wood Clan sent three patients.

“Master Alchemist Liu, let me introduce you. These are Mu Die, Mu Fei and Mu Liu. The three of them are all at the Spiritual King Realm. Because of their relatively good aptitude, they are all infected with the Soul-Devouring Spirit Insects. However, they have only been infected for less than a month. They are the patients with the shortest illness time and the lowest strength in the clan, which is very suitable for your requirements.” Mu Yuan introduced the three carefully.

Liu Mufeng nodded. He looked at the three Wood cultivators, one woman, two men. “Do you have any specific symptoms now?”

“I feel headache. Every night when I cultivate, my head hurts.” Mu Fei frowned.

“Extend your hand.” Liu Mufeng signaled him to extend his hand.

After extending his arm, Mu Fei’s expression was still ugly. Although Mu Yuan and Mu Liang had always said that Liu Mufeng was so powerful that he could cure the illness of the Crystal Clan’s Great Elder’s Wife, Mu Fei felt that the illness of the cultivators of their Wood Clan was different from that of the Great Elder’s Wife of the Crystal Clan, no matter how powerful this human alchemist was, he might not be able to cure him.

First, he took the pulse, and then Liu Mufeng got Mu Fei’s consent to use his soul power to check Mu Fei’s body. “You have three soul-devouring insects in your body, and they are all in your sea of consciousness. It may be troublesome to take them out.”

“Oh.” Nodding, Mu Fei didn’t say much. He had already given up on his situation.

“Is your name Mu Die? What symptoms do you have?” Looking at the only female cultivator, Liu Mufeng asked as he started to take the pulse of the other party.

“I, I’ve been feeling nauseous recently, and sometimes my stomach hurts.” Speaking of this, Mu Die also had a sad expression on her face.

After taking the pulse, Liu Mufeng used his soul power to check again, and found that there were five insects in the person’s stomach. “En, your situation is better than Mu Fei’s. The insects are in your stomach and haven’t entered the sea of consciousness. How long have you been infected with the Soul-Devouring Insects?”

“Well, ten days. I started to feel stomach pains ten days ago. I consulted the witch doctor in the clan. The witch doctor said that I was infected by the Soul-Devouring Insects, and there was no cure.” Having said that, Mu Die eye’s turned red. She was a cultivator of the Wood Clan, and she knew that the end result of being infected with the Soul-Devouring Insects was to turn into a pile of rotten wood in the end, and die extremely painfully.

“It’s not bad. You’ve been infected for a relatively short period of time. It should be easier to get the insects out.” As he spoke, Liu Mufeng went to see the third person, Mu Liu. His symptoms were similar to those of Mu Die.

“Mu Die and Mu Liu’s symptoms are relatively mild. I’ll treat them first.XiaoXu, take Mu Fei to the guest room to rest first, and I’ll see him tomorrow.” Looking at his partner, Liu Mufeng said so.

“It smells so good.” Smelling the scent of the soup, Mu Die and Mu Liu were both intoxicated.

“You two have a problem with your nose, right? It’s so stinky, where does it smell good?” Mu Yuan couldn’t help but roll his eyes.

“No, it smells so good to me.” As she said that, Mu Die stood up from her chair, and walked towards the small pot suspended in mid-air like a possessed woman, and then spat out five quail-sized bugs in one breath.

Looking at the five white and fat insects that fell into the soup pot, Mu Die suddenly felt sick.

“Urghh…” Running over, Mu Liu also spat out six insects of similar size. “It smelled so good just now, why is it so stinky now?” After spitting out the insects, Mu Liu suddenly found that the medicinal soup in the pot was stinky.

Withdrawing his own flame and looking at the eleven insects in the pot, Liu Mufeng frowned. He directly took out a turquoise gourd, and collected the eleven insects into the gourd. This gourd was a magic tool given to him by his Master after he advanced to the Spiritual Ancestor Realm. It could refine any demon beast into blood. It was a magic tool specially used to deal with demon beasts.

“Alchemist Liu, they, are they all right?” Mu Yuan asked in disbelief.

“En, they’re fine now, the insects have already been drawn out. This is the medicinal pill to kill insect eggs, you two each take a pill, so as not to leave other insect eggs in your body.” Liu Mufeng took out two pills and distributed them to the two people.

“Thank you Alchemist Liu.” After receiving the pill, the two of them took it immediately, they didn’t want any more insects in their body.

“Alchemist Liu, the two of them are cultivators at the Spiritual King Realm, and they are relatively poor. How about letting them stay to help you grow spiritual plants to pay off their debts?” Mu Yuan asked.

“All I plant are level 6 and level 7 spiritual herbs. With their level, it will not be easy for them to plant these, but I have other methods for them to pay the fee.” Liu Mufeng said so.

“What method?” The two asked suspiciously.

“The first method, both of you put a bowl of blood to repay the debt. The second method, both of you cut your hair and give it to me to repay the debt.” Liu Mufeng took out a clean small bowl and a dagger and put it on the table.

“This, this.” Hearing this, the two looked at each other.

“Mu Die, if you are afraid of pain, you can cut your hair, it doesn’t hurt.” Mu Yuan said helplessly.

Mu Die touched her emerald green hair and shook her head hastily. “No, I won’t cut my hair, I will do bloodletting.”

Looking at Mu Die’s reluctance to cut her hair, Liu Mufeng smiled wryly and said in his heart:No matter what race, the female cultivators love beauty so much. They would rather let bloodletting than cut their hair.

She took the bowl on the table and looked at it. Mu Die secretly heaved a sigh of relief. “The bowl is not too big, no, it won’t hurt too much, right?”

“Why don’t I cover your eyes for you.” After saying that, Mu Liu walked over and covered Mu Die’s eyes.

Picking up the dagger, Liu Mufeng pulled Mu Die’s left wrist.

“Alchemist Liu, won’t there be scars?”

Liu Mufeng smiled wryly as he heard her words. “Don’t worry, when the bowl is full of blood, I’ll use my spiritual power to heal your wound, without leaving any scars.” As he spoke, Liu Mufeng had already cut Mu Die’s wrist. The emerald green blood slowly flowed out from the wound and dripped into the small bowl.

Smelling the faint fragrance in the blood, Liu Mufeng couldn’t help raising his eyebrows. It was said that the blood of the Wood Clan could increase the success rate of alchemy and the probability of producing top-quality pills, but he didn’t know if this was true. “Mu Die, what is your body?”

“I, I am a saucer tree, a tree that produces colorful flowers. However, a saucer tree only blooms but does not bear fruit.” Mu Die sighed softly.

“If you find a cultivator from the Wood Clan to be your partner, won’t it work?” Liu Mufeng asked curiously.

“I don’t know, I’m not yet an adult. Our Wood Clan becomes an adult at five thousand years old, and we can only find a partner after we reach adulthood.”

“Oh, so that’s how it is.” Nodding, Liu Mufeng expressed his understanding. “You have a special physique of the Wood Clan, and the blood-enriching pill may not have much effect on you, but you don’t have to worry, I will give you a fourth-level Wood Spirit Pill in a while, and when you take the pill, your body can recover a lot, and will not be weak due to blood loss.”

“Oh, thank you Alchemist Liu.” Mu Die was very happy to hear that she would be given a pill.

Mu Die chose bloodletting, while Mu Liu, a minor in the clan, chose to cut his hair.

Seeing the emerald green hair being cut off one by one and turned into a pile of willow leaves, Liu Mufeng couldn’t help raising his eyebrows. Although willow was the most common kind of tree, the shape-shifting Wood Clan was naturally different from ordinary willows. Therefore, these leaves were also different, and being used for alchemy could enhance the spirituality of the pill, which was also very helpful for Liu Mufeng.

Seeing that Mu Liu had cut his hair and turned into a bald head, Liu Mufeng gave him a hat. However, Mu Liu himself didn’t mind at all. He said that his body was a willow tree that grows fast, and the next spring, his hair would grow very long again.

Three people were sent here, and two of them were cured on the same day, which made Mu Yuan very happy. He also had great confidence in solving the trouble of the Wood Clan’s Soul-Devouring Insects.

“Mu Yuan, after you return to the clan, you’d better ask your witch doctor to check every member of the clan. The shorter the infection time, the easier it is to treat. Like Mu Fei, if the Soul-Devouring Spirit Insects have already entered the sea of consciousness, it will be very troublesome to take it out.” Liu Mufeng instructed Mu Yuan seriously.

“Yes, what Alchemist Liu said is true. I understand. After I go back, I will ask the witch doctor to check the health of everyone in the clan.” Nodding repeatedly, Mu Yuan agreed.

“Alchemist Liu, is there any way to keep us from getting insects?” Mu Die asked uncertainly.

“This, I don’t have any good solution for the time being. However, I think the problem should be in the water source. You can go back and check your water source. If there is no problem with the water source, it should be the soil problem.” The wood cultivators were different from the human race. No matter how powerful they were, they could not leave the soil, water, and sunlight for a long time. Therefore, Liu Mufeng thought that the Soul-Devouring Insects should come from the water source and the soil.

“Oh, I see.” Nodding, the three of them took Liu Mufeng’s words to heart.

“Alchemist Liu, thank you for curing us. We’ll be saying our leave.” Lowering their heads, Mu Die and Mu Liu thanked again, and then followed Mu Yuan and left Liu Mufeng’s courtyard together.

After sending the three of them away, Liu Mufeng thought about it, then went directly to the guest room to find Mu Fei.
