Chapter 36: The Birth of the Demon? (1/2)
”May I ask this Senior Brother how you determined that person was a demon?”
At this moment, Yu Banxia and the rest rushed over and stood together with Jiang Li. The spiritual qi in their bodies seemed to be gathering, ready to defend against any sudden attacks.
”How? Isn't it obvious?” At this moment, Monk Zheng Yuan was a little puzzled. His forthright smile slowly faded as he walked over to the youth he had sent flying.
”This demon's body was filled with Yin qi just now. He bared his fangs and brandished his claws, preparing to harm others. If he isn't a demon, what else can he be?”
Cough cough cough!
Right at this time, the youth who was lying on the ground like a lump of mud suddenly coughed a few times that sounded like his breath was clogged. After a lump of foam blood spurted out from his mouth and nose, his deeply sunken chest actually rose and fell again.
This youth was actually still alive.
”Eh? Why did that Yin qi disappear?” The cultivator who claimed to be a disciple of Benevolent Travel Temple scratched his head, still not understanding what had happened.
”Qianqian, go and see if there's any hope of saving him.”
”Senior Brother, the Yin qi just now was actually the effect of my spell technique. This young man is indeed not a demon.”
”He's the same as the other children in the square. It's only because of some unknown reason that he's been unconscious.”
”Senior brother, please step back a bit so that our junior sister can see if she can treat his injuries.”
Jiang Li explained the general situation of the children in the Southern Seal Kingdom. He raised his right hand and condensed a ball of Yin qi as proof.
Seeing the Yin qi in Jiang Li's hand, Zheng Yuan's eyes flashed with a hint of displeasure, but it quickly disappeared.
”This… this is actually the case. There's such a strange illness?”
”Amitabha. I've accidentally injured a good person!”
”I have sinned, I have sinned!”
Zheng Yuan looked like a reasonable person. After knowing that everyone was wary of him, he retreated a distance.
”Junior Sister, please heal the injured.”
”This is the Jade Bone Flesh Regeneration Pill of my Benevolent Travel Temple. I wish to express my apologies and hope to help this person.”
As he spoke, he even took out a bottle of medicinal pills from his sleeve and handed it over.
Jiang Li and the others stepped forward to separate him from the injured. Only then did they allow Lu Qianqian to stand behind them and begin to heal her with spell techniques.
Yu Banxia took the pill carefully and opened it to take a sniff. He did not find anything wrong with it and felt much more relieved.
On one hand, their strength was limited. On the other hand, they had no relationship with that youth. They had no intention of standing up for him.
In reality, when Jiang Li released the Yin attribute spiritual qi just now, he was still guarding against the other party who might suddenly attack in the name of justice.
At the very least, in terms of cultivation base, a monk at the late-stage Qi Refinement realm was able to deal with all these rookies by himself.
Under such circumstances, it was better to resolve the issue and settle it properly.
”Senior Brother Zheng Yuan is righteous. We will do our best to save that youth. It's his fortune to be able to eat such a precious pill in his lifetime.”
Cultivators who injured mortals and knew how to compensate them were actually quite rare.
Moreover, it was the Jade Bone Flesh Regeneration Pill, a famous high-grade Yellow-rank medicinal pill among Yellow-rank medicinal pills. Its effects were good but its production quantity was low.
Outer sect disciples like them were even unable to find a way to purchase it, so how could they bear to feed it to a mortal?
Speaking of which, this medicinal pill was probably more of a way to silence him.
After all, feeding a mortal pills was fine if it was a low-grade Yellow-rank, but a high-grade Yellow-rank medicinal pill was not much different from directly slapping him to death.
”Well, there's something else.”
