Chapter: 1319 (1/2)

AST 1319 – This Is Scorpiosnake Poison [1], The Great Yehuang Clan, Powerful Life and Death Needles

Li Husheng looked at Soulsearch and asked uneasily, his eyes filled with anticipation.

“Mister Li, I’ll only be able to suppress it temporarily,” Soulsearch said a little helplessly.

A faint hint of disappointment appeared on Li Husheng’s face. He was clear about his own condition and had approached many physicians for help. However, out of all the physicians he had approached, only Soulsearch was able to temporarily suppress it. In the long term, there was still no cure. Therefore, Soulsearch told him to look for better alchemists and physicians to help him.

The yang energy in his body continued to decrease and now, even his adam’s apple was deteriorating and his lower body was shrinking. This was driving him crazy. If all of his yang energy were to dissipate, then he would lose his life as well. Soulsearch could only help him to control his condition for half a year. If he still couldn’t find someone who could treat him within this time, he would probably only be able to hang on for another half a year at most.

“Qing Shui, why don’t you take a look at Mister Li’s condition? He’s a good man,” Soulsearch smiled and said.

Hearing Soulsearch’s words, Qing Shui knew that the former was trying to tell him that this person was unlike Li Ye and was a person he could treat. Therefore, Qing Shui smiled and nodded.

Li Husheng felt a little dejected. It could be because Qing Shui was still young. However, he still looked toward Qing Shui and said, “What do you need me to do?”

“Let me take your pulse.”

Hearing Qing Shui’s words, Li Husheng reached out his hand. However, there was still disappointment in his eyes. Soulsearch was a master in taking pulses and seeing Qing Shui’s method, which seemed to be ordinary, he didn’t hold much hope.

Very soon, Qing Shui was stunned and he looked at Li Husheng.

“You’ve been poisoned?”

“Poison? That’s impossible!” Li Husheng looked at Qing Shui in doubt.

When Soulsearch heard what Qing Shui said, he was also taken aback. He then looked toward Qing Shui. Soulsearch felt that this was a strange illness where one’s yang energy would deteriorate. One could only be healthy when the yin and yang energies in their body were balanced.

If either was completely lost, one would lose their life.

Right now, Qing Shui was very agitated as well. It was because he had encountered the symptoms of a poison he was familiar with. He smiled and said, “This poison is very mysterious and is called the Scorpiosnake Poison. This poison is given through a woman. Mister Li, you should who it was by now.”

While Qing Shui was saying this, he was very surprised as well. To think that the Scorpiosnake Poison really existed. This poison wasn’t harmful to women but on the contrary, would make them appear more charming and beautiful. However, the man who had sex with the woman would be poisoned. Of course, there was a time restriction to the Scorpiosnake Poison. For example, after the woman took it, she must have sex with the man within a stipulated time period for the man to be poisoned.

“Then are you able to cure it?” Li Husheng seemed to have a hint of hope ignited in him and he looked toward Qing Shui.

“I can but it’s best for you to ask for the antidote. Otherwise, it’ll be very hard for your cultivation to improve in the future,” Qing Shui said calmly.

“Thank you. I’ll visit another day to express my thanks. I shan’t waste any time and shall take my leave for now.”

…

“Brother’s medical skills are really amazing,” Soulsearch said in admiration.

Qing Shui didn’t say much about this but just smiled and asked, “Elder Brother, is there a Yehuang Clan in the Yehuang Country?”

“Of course there is. The head of the Yehuang Country is a gigantic existence. It’s said that there are False God experts in their clan.” Soulsearch’s reply was very fast. This was no secret. The majority of the cultivators in the Dancing Phoenix Continent knew about this and it was said that every top notch clan in each country would have experts at the False God level. Therefore, Soulsearch spoke without any hesitation.

Although Qing Shui had guessed this answer, he was still stunned. Yehuang Guwu should be a member of the Yehuang Clan. However, with such a powerful clan, why did she insist on staying in the Western Oxhe Continent?

“Elder Brother, how does the Yehuang Clan compare to the Li Clan’s main branch?” Qing Shui smiled and asked.

“There’s nothing to compare. The difference is far too great. False God experts are far too terrifying and although Li Clan isn’t bad, they are still a far cry in comparison.” Soulsearch shook his head. Even he had only occasionally gone to a great existence like the Yehuang Clan and it was so that he could provide treatment for a member of their clan.

It was a pity that with his medical skills, he wasn’t able to cure the patient completely. Therefore, eventually, he wasn’t able to get into the top notch circle in the Yehuang Country. Compared to the world in Qing Shui’s previous life, the Yehuang Country was many times larger. Therefore, it was still very hard for one to become the best physician in the country.

“Elder Brother, do you know of the Demon Lord Palace?” Qing Shui had been wanting to ask this for a very long time.

“The Demon Lord Palace isn’t located on any continent but is at the intersection between the Dancing Phoenix Continent, Soaring Dragon Continent and the Haohan Continent. It could be said that it doesn’t belong to any continent,” Soulsearch said weirdly.

“Why is that so?” Qing Shui asked, puzzled.

“It’s said that the Demon Lord Palace couldn’t be accepted by orthodox sects. I’m not too sure why. Anyway, many people want to get rid of the Demon Lord Palace.” Soulsearch looked at Qing Shui. He seemed to not be very sure either.

He didn’t ask Qing Shui anything else. He knew that Qing Shui was very mysterious but in this area, even if they were on quite good terms, he didn’t ask. He knew that if Qing Shui wished to say, he would do so himself. Moreover, there were some things which might not be good for him to know about.

Qing Shui had wanted to go take a look at the Demon Lord Palace but he knew that now wasn’t the time. It was because he knew that if he wished to help her, he would at least have to reach the False God realm.

He knew that that woman wouldn’t be against everyone from the three continents. It should be some people from the Dancing Phoenix Continent or the Soaring Dragon Continent. It was because, when the world was so big, it was impossible for one to make an enemy out of the entire world.

It seemed a little impossible even if it was an entire continent. It could be a continent’s capital. A continent’s capital could at least represent a large part of a continent!

Since that was the case, Qing Shui decided not to think about it for now. If he really wanted to help her, he must first get stronger.
