Chapter 387 - A Blessing in Disguise (1/2)

Ch387 – A Blessing in Disguise

Not long after, before it was completely dark, Yuan Seven refined the potion.

Yuan Seven took the bowl of black medicine that looked ominous and walked to Duan Yuyang, meticulously speaking in a monotone, “Madam, the medicine has been refined. You can use it now.”

Duan Yuyang wanted to stretch out his hand and pick it up, but Yuan Tianwen took it first.

Yuan Tianwen looked at the medicine for a while and took out a bottle from his storage bag, pouring part of the medicine into the bottle.

The pill inside the bottle dissolved into the potion within a few moments, and the potion also turned a clear color. It smelled sweet and clear, making people feel comfortable.

“What is this?” Yan Tianhen asked curiously.

“It’s a poison pill made from the toxins in Yangyang’s body and some other herbs.” Yuan Tianwen was very cautious. “I never trust giving these kinds of edible things to Yangyang without testing them first.”

Yan Tianhen nodded, “It’s better to be careful.”

Even if it was an antidote personally refined by Yuan Tianwen himself, he still couldn’t rest assured until he’d tested it.

Only after they’d waited some more and didn’t see any other reactions did Yuan Tianwen hand Duan Yuyang the medicine, with his heart at ease.

Yuan Tianwen looked at Duan Yuyang, “Yangyang, I also don’t know if you’ll have any adverse reactions after drinking this bowl of medicine. However, don’t be afraid. I still have some life-saving medicinal pills here and won’t let anything happen to you.”

Duan Yuyang was much more relaxed and calm compared with Yuan Tianwen’s nervousness.

He side-eyed Yuan Tianwen, “Can’t you think more optimistically?”

Before Yuan Tianwen could speak, Duan Yuyang swallowed all the medicine in the bowl.

“Fuck–!” Duan Yuyang clutched his neck. His face looked like he couldn’t endure anymore; he almost spat it out.

Yuan Tianwen simply didn’t know what to do with his hands and feet. His eyes widened into circles as he stared at Duan Yuyang without blinking for fear that he would have any adverse reactions.

Duan Yuyang strongly resisted the urge to spit out the medicine, and his expression was slightly ferocious. His face turned blue, white, and black, and the color of his lips gradually deepened, as if he’d been poisoned.

Yan Tianhen couldn’t help sweating in worry.

Duan Yuyang broke out in a cold sweat and shivered uncontrollably. His appearance looked very frightening, but at this moment, no one could help him. He could only endure the calamity on his own.

Yuan Tianwen hated the Duan family couple more and more. He took Duan Yuyang in his arms bridal style and, with several leaps, jumped onto the tree and disappeared into the forest.

Lin Xuanzhi explained, “He has been poisoned for quite a long time. If he wants to neutralize the problem all at once, then I’m afraid that the toxin will not be completely eliminated unless he suffers some hardships.”

Bei Shitian had a face of indifference, thinking in his heart, They’re really making a fuss over nothing. When he was in the Nine Lands, it wasn’t like he hadn’t seen detoxification scenes crueler and more terrible than this one. Some of those people were in so much pain they cut off their own arms, while others smashed their heads against the wall. Now that’s called “drenched with blood” and “extremely disturbing”. Duan Yuyang’s case is still considered mild; what is there to worry about? Plus one can tell at first glance that the antidote has no problems. At most, he’ll just have to suffer a little hardship.

However, an unspeakable and indescribable feeling rose in his heart as Bei Shitian thought of Yuan Tianwen’s extremely worried expression earlier. He couldn’t help but think of a scene from the Nine Lands before.

That year, he went out with Wan Yitong for training and met the Wan family’s enemies on the road. He fought desperately to protect Wan Yitong’s retreat. However, he was heavily poisoned by the other party and nearly died several times.

After being rescued by the Wan family’s guards, who had arrived just in time, he was in a coma for a long time, unaware of the passage of time.

Wan Yitong was so scared that he stayed by Bei Shitian’s bed every day and used all the sparrow spirits he had hidden away to dispel the poison for him, for fear that the tiniest bad thing would happen to him.

He was ill in bed for a whole year, and Wan Yitong accompanied him for an entire year, never leaving during this period. Even when Wan Yitong’s closest sister got married, he did not send her off because of the long journey.

However, time flew; things have remained the same, but the people have changed. Who would have thought of such an ugly future?

Bei Shitian forced himself to come back from his memory. He could no longer yearn for the past because he was not qualified to receive this ordinary happiness again.

Nobody knew where Yuan Tianwen took Duan Yuyang. Although Lin Xuanzhi and the others did not chase after them, the Yuan family’s shadow guards had to follow and protect them.

On the morning of the following day, the group of people who had a night’s rest in the Myriad Beasts Demonic Forest had just woken up when they saw Yuan Tianwen beaming as he held Duan Yuyang’s hand, making their way over from the depths of the forest.

Lin Xuanzhi’s eyes rested on Duan Yuyang for a moment. He raised his eyebrows slightly, “Congratulations.”

Duan Yuyang also smiled brightly, “This time, I could only neutralize the poison so quickly due to all of you. I, Duan Yuyang, thank everyone in advance. I will properly thank you again after we leave here.”

Yan Tianhen smiled, “Why are you polite to us? The fact that you were able to remove the poison is already the best news.”

Feng Jingyu flew around Duan Yuyang twice, chirping two times in surprise.

Bei Shitian had also discovered the change in Duan Yuyang,

Duan Yuyang couldn’t help rubbing his face, “Yeah, I didn’t expect that after removing the poison, my cultivation actually directly rushed to the fifth layer of Foundation Stage. In passing, I also took the Hardened Body Pill that Ah Hen gave me. Right now, I have successfully broken through the Hardened Body Stage!”

Qing Zhu was very surprised. “How did your cultivation rise so fast? I remember that you were only in the Refining Qi Stage yesterday.”
