Chapter 583 - Summoned by a Teacher (2/2)

Lonemoon had the same thoughts. Drinking this medicine will allow Ling Wen Xuan to stand up again, but he would still be unable to cultivate. What’s more his own cultivation may be weakened by the demonic Qi in his dantian. It looked like the standard of medicine in the Void Land was unsatisfactory.

Once again, he scanned the herbs all around the room. After pondering for several minutes, he finally understood why there were no pill cultivators here. There were no spirit herbs at all! Pill cultivators used spirit herbs and immortal herbs to refine pills, but there was too much chaos in the Void Land that resulting in no spirit Qi at all in the plane. Instead, there was a clutter of waste all around the plane. That was why spirit herbs could not be grown in a place like that. Naturally, there were no pill cultivators in the plane.

Lonemoon turned to look at Ling Hong, who was still excitedly producing the medicines in the hope that his brother would recover fully. He pondered for a moment, then retrieved a pill that could remove demonic Qi from one’s body. Lonemoon slipped the pill into the bottle, then used his immortal energy to mix the pill into the liquid. He took it as Ling Hong’s reward for working for them earlier.

Ling Hong finished producing the medicine very quickly. The remaining two bottles of medicine were done in no time. He greeted the three of them, took one bottle of medicine and walked out.

“Older Brother, the medicine is done!”

“So quickly?” Ling Wen Xuan, who had been reading, stared up at his brother in disbelief. The few of them had only gone up for several minutes. “Didn’t you say that the bones would take-”

“Fellow Daoist Yi Qing had a special method of refining the fish bones speedily. That was how I managed to produce the medicine so quickly!” Ling Hong explained. He quickly handed the bottle of medicine over. “Older Brother, please have it!”

Ling Wen Xuan nodded. Just as he was about to open the bottle, Lonemoon handed the bottle in his hands to Ling Wen Xuan instead. “Have this bottle first, so that I don’t have to keep holding onto it.”

The two brothers paused. An apologetic look flashed across Ling Hong’s face as Ling Wen Xuan quickly reached out for the bottle, opened it, and drank the medicine. it was not a big bottle – Ling Wen Xuan finished it in a couple of gulps. A few moments later, he felt a warmth rise up, from his dantian. It was almost as if the icy aura that had remained there for a long time had dissipated.

He became overcome with excitement as he took the next bottle and gulped it down. He looked up and stared at Lonemoon in confusion. Then, he continued drinking the medicine until he finished the third bottle.

“Older Brother, the medicine will take about three days to fully kick in,” Ling Hong said excitedly. “You will be better in just a few days.”

“Mm,” Ling Wen Xuan responded. He turned to look at Lonemoon, cupped his fists and said sincerely, “Thank you so much for all of your help this time. I, Ling Wen Xuan, will keep this in my heart forever.”

“Don’t stand on ceremony,” Lonemoon replied.

He lowered his gaze and an odd look flashed across his eyes. He hesitated and said, “Can I ask, earlier-”

Before he could finish speaking, the sound of a bell ringing came from outside. Suddenly, something red and white burst into the room and charged straight at Lonemoon. It took with it a faint but sharp sword Qi.

“Be careful!” Ling Hong shouted.

Lonemoon raised his fan to fend it off and the light immediately fell to the ground with a ring. They all looked down and saw a golden little dagger on the floor, broken in two.

“This is…” Ling Hong’s eyes widened in shock. “Teacher Yan’s golden dagger! Why is it here? Could it be…”

His expression darkened as he turned to face Ling Wen Xuan, whose face reflected his own.
