Chapter 565 - Chapter 565: Chapter 557 Rescue (2/2)

“Thank you, young friend, for your rescue. This old man is named Xu Qiao, known as Elder Xu. Seeing the flames you just wielded, could it be that you are a Huoyun Cave Cultivator?”

“Qin is not a Huoyun Cave Cultivator,”

Qin Niu shook his head in denial.

However, he did not reveal his own origins, feeling very cautious toward the elder.

“That’s right, the flame aura that the young friend emitted is indeed different from that of a Huoyun Cave Cultivator. This old man comes from the Myriad Beast Gang, and should you visit the Myriad Beast Gang in the future, please honor my home with your presence. I must treat you well to repay your life-saving grace today.”

Having learned that Qin Niu was not a Huoyun Cave Cultivator, the old man then disclosed his own background.

When traveling outside, everyone carries a sense of vigilance.

If you’re not careful, you probably won’t survive three days.

“So Elder Xu is a cultivator from the Myriad Beast Gang! My apologies for any disrespect! I see a black aura enveloping your face; have you been poisoned?”

Once Qin Niu learned that the old man was a cultivator from the Myriad Beast Gang, his goodwill immediately surged.

It’s undeniable that when he passed through the Myriad Beast Gang, they had treated him with great hospitality, which left him feeling fondly toward all the cultivators from the gang.

“Ah, don’t mention it. When I barged in here, I encountered a massive attack by evil branches. If it were just the attack from the evil plants, this old man could have managed to defend against it. But at that moment, seven or eight small snakes with horns on their heads emerged, and they along with the evil plants surrounded and attacked me.

Ultimately, my little Zi decided to protect me and got bitten by a silver-horned snake.”

I managed to kill those little snakes using some of my ultimate techniques, but that silver-horned snake was extremely powerful and escaped while injured.

Unexpectedly, that silver-horned snake’s venom was terrifying. I became poisoned while extracting the venom from little Zi.

Eventually, my strength waned, and I was tied up tight by the evil plants.”

While speaking, the elder kept a vigilant watch on the ground, guarding against the evil plants that could spring up and attack at any moment.

“I see! Qin passed through the treasured domain of the Myriad Beast Gang and received some care. Consider this as returning a favor by helping you detoxify.”

After hearing the full story, Qin Niu decided to create another bond of goodwill.

But the elder shook his head, “The young friend has extraordinary strength, but little does he know how formidable the venom of the silver-horned snake is. I’ve taken a variety of detoxification pills and have only just managed to suppress the venom. Your kind intention to detoxify me might just end up harming you instead.”

The elder too was one to remember kindness.

Qin Niu had saved his life, and now he was worried about Qin Niu being hurt by the snake venom, rejecting the idea of Qin Niu helping him to detoxify.

“There’s no need for concern, Elder Xu. I know my limits,”

Qin Niu said with a confident smile.

“Please sit cross-legged, Elder Xu, and relax.”

The elder complied, though he remained anxious about the evil plants that could burst forth from the earth at any moment.

Strangely enough, standing there, Qin Niu seemed to deter any evil plants within a ten-meter radius from daring to harm anyone.

They appeared to be very sentient, showing extreme fear of Qin Niu after witnessing his prowess.

Qin Niu placed one hand on the elder’s head.

And in just a short while, the black aura on the elder’s face had vanished, and he felt indescribably relieved.

“It’s done!”

Qin Niu stated simply.

The elder stood up, incredulously examining his own body and stretching his limbs.

“This is truly unbelievable. Your abilities are extraordinary, and I am in awe. Thank you for helping me once again.”

Elder Xu looked at Qin Niu as if he were looking at a god with limitless power.

At this moment, he truly understood that there were always greater skies beyond the one you see, and more profound people beyond oneself.

Qin Niu was not only capable of subduing evil plants but could also easily dispel the terrible snake venom.
