1738 The Horrible Poisonous Beas (1/2)
Like a huge wave clapping the seashore, an army landed on the ground, but nobody made a sound.
With a flash of light, these men all appeared on the ground, and it became a huge formation of an army.
Every man's eyes were full of murderous intent and solemnness!
These people were so powerful and it made Ye Xiao sweat with fear!
Ye Xiao knew about armies and wars. He used to lead a great army to fight the war in the Land of Han-Yang, and he had killed the enemies on the battlefield and taken down the enemy's flag. That was why he knew how difficult it was to lead an army as powerful as this one he was staring at.
The army he looked at didn't have a higher morale than the army of his father Ye Nantian, or the army of his father-in-law Su Dingguo, even the army of Lan Langlang's father, General Lan and the army of Wenren Jianyin. However, this army was incredible! After all, these people were all cultivators in the Human Realm Upon Heavens. Individual power was much more important in this world than the Land of Han-Yang!
It was a horrible and frightening army he was looking at.
There were more than ten thousand men, who were beyond the sixth level of the Divinity Origin Stage!
That was such a powerful army with such great disciplines!
The purple-robe old man looked around, and Ye Xiao hurriedly lowered his head. That was a brilliant act of a cowardly little man in the martial world. Apparently, Ye Xiao was so good at pretending. Even though the other great actor, Han Bingxue wasn't with him, he could act a perfect play by himself.
”Wu Lingkuang!” The old man shouted loudly.
The tough man who arrived first ran to the old man and said, ”Yes, Master!”
”Who are those people?”
”Perhaps… They are just passerby…” He didn't seem to be certain.
”Perhaps? Is this your answer? You are not certain of it, and you give it to me as your answer, don't you? You are brilliant!” The purple-robe old man looked cold. He said, ”Get him down. Ten slashes as a punishment!”
The tough man didn't say a word. Several men came over and dragged him away. After that, the sound of whipping was heard somewhere far away.
Ye Xiao was shocked.
He recognized the material of the whip from the sound of it. He happened to have the same material.
It was exactly the black dragon skin!
The whip which was made from the black dragon skin could not only hurt people's physical body but also bring pain to one's soul. That was quite some suffering for the man…
Because he gave an uncertain answer to the old man, he was punished with such severe pain! The purple-robe old man was such a brutal leader of an army. However, none of his men showed any expression. Everybody was calm and expressionless.
It seemed they were used to it as if it was normal!
”Go and ask!”
The purple-robe old man didn't even move his eyes, just casually pointed at Ye Xiao and the ladies.
A yellow-robe cultivator left the troop and walked to Ye Xiao. With an expressionless face, he asked Ye Xiao.
”What is your name?
”Where are you from?
”Who are the ladies to you?
”Why are you here?
”Can't you get past this place?
”Why didn't you change your route?
”Why do you stay here? What are you after?”
One question after another and the man didn't even give Ye Xiao time to think. Ye Xiao answered all the questions without hesitation. He was shivering and his face turned colorless. It looked like he was terrified by the man.
In Ye Xiao's answers, he was an itinerant cultivator with his wife and two sisters who were heading to the famous Hall of Life and Death for help…
His wife was severely ill and nobody could save her anymore. The Hall of Life and Death was the last chance he had. As they reached this place, the Foggy Miasma Mountain stopped them. If they changed the route, they had to go back and cross the ocean. It was millions of miles away, which was impossible. That was why they stayed here, and none of them knew what to do next…
All in all, Ye Xiao made up a story of a piteous man with his poor wife and sisters! It was such a sad story!
The yellow-robe man rolled his sharp eyes around and looked at Xuan Bing. ”Are you his wife? What is the disease you got? How do you feel? I know a little about medicine. Let's me check your condition, and perhaps you can be cured!”
Ye Xiao had done such a great job to make up the story, but the man in the yellow robe still didn't trust him. That was cautious!
”I…” Xuan Bing said one word, and the man in yellow robe already grabbed her wrist. Suddenly, the man's spiritual energy got into Xuan Bing's wrist.
Xuan Bing gritted her teeth. She wanted to get rid of him, but the man was too powerful, so she had to endure the touch.
The man in yellow robe ran his spiritual energy in Xuan Bing's Jing and Mai. He found that Xuan Bing's Jing and Mai were intermittent. Some parts of the Jing and Mai were almost broken. Her dantian had a hole through which her life qi was running away… Her life was almost drained…
That was such severe injuries. Even the most powerful doctors in the world were unable to cure her, not to mention the man in yellow robe!
Xuan Bing was such an experienced cultivator who had already reached the top of the Saint Origin Stage, one step away from the Immortality Stage. She was at a much higher level than the man in the yellow robe, so it was easy for her to disguise her real status.
”Oh. I see.” The man in yellow robe frowned and let go of Xuan Bing's arm.
Ye Xiao was anxious, and he asked, ”Master, do you get to know my wife's situation now? Please, tell us something… Please, save her life… Please, my lord…”
The man in yellow robe impatiently said, ”I am not a doctor. I don't know anything about your wife's disease!”
He humphed, turned around, and walked away.
Ye Xiao was anxiously shouting, ”Master, didn't you say you knew medicine? Why don't you just give me a diagnosis? Just tell how she is… Please… Why do you do this to us?”
The old man in the purple robe was quite powerful, and he definitely heard Ye Xiao, which made him feel annoyed.
The man in yellow robe hurriedly came back to the old man and said, ”Master, I got their names. They are… They are here because… It is such a severe disease. Her dantian is broken. Her life energy is running out. Her Jing and Mai are incomplete… She is at the end of her life…”
”The man is telling the truth. Please give us further instruction, Master.” The man in yellow robe said and bowed.
