Seeing Xin Gong and Master Chen leave, Jiang Chen let out a cold laugh.
Then, without a mont’s hesitation, he hurried down the mountain.
He returned to the Jiang Family.
anwhile, Xin Gong and Master Chen returned to the Xin Family with the Golden Healing Pill.
Carefully holding the bottle containing the Golden Healing Pill, Xin Gong looked at his son, who was lying in bed with all four limbs crippled.
His heart began to pound with excitent.
’My son will be back on his feet soon. Jiang Family, I’ll make you pay for this sooner or later.’
After all, the Jiang Family was responsible for all of this, and Xin Gong harbored a deep hatred for them.
The Xin Family had also lost so many of their experts at the Jiang Family’s hands.
"Father, can I still be saved?"
Xin Jianren’s eyes were open as he looked at his father.
He didn’t want to lie in bed like a cripple forever.
"Of course you can be saved. I’ve already found the Golden Healing Pill that will cure you."
"You’ll be back on your feet in no ti."
Xin Gong said with an ecstatic smile.
Xin Jianren was thrilled as well.
"Father, that’s wonderful! I can stand up again!"
"Thank heavens! As long as I can stand again, I swear that one day, I will make the Jiang Family’s blood flow like a river."
"I’ll make sure Jiang Chen dies without a proper burial!"
But Xin Gong just laughed and said, "Son, I’ve already gotten revenge for you. I crippled that piece of trash from the Jiang Family. I doubt he’ll live much longer."
He had gravely wounded Jiang Chen with a single sword strike at the Jiang Family residence. He estimated that one strike was enough to take Jiang Chen’s life.
He just hadn’t heard any news from the Jiang Family yet.
But he was certain that Jiang Chen wouldn’t last much longer.
"What?"
"Father, are you serious? You’ve already gotten revenge for ?"
After his initial stupor, Xin Jianren was overco with a wave of wild joy.
Jiang Chen had broken all four of his limbs, and he had sworn revenge.
Now his father had already avenged him. It was imnsely satisfying.
"Of course it’s true."
"Don’t overthink it. Just focus on your recovery."
Xin Gong took out the Golden Healing Pill.
He prepared to give it to his son.
But Master Chen suddenly spoke up and stopped him.
"Clan Leader, wait."
Xin Gong looked at Master Chen in confusion. This Master Chen was a key figure in the rise of their Xin Family.
As a First-Grade Alchemist, he had helped the Xin Family a great deal.
He was a ritorious veteran.
Therefore, Xin Gong was willing to listen to what Master Chen had to say.
Master Chen looked at the Golden Healing Pill in Xin Gong’s hand and said, "Patriarch, it’s like this. This Golden Healing Pill was brought from the outside, after all. I don’t think it’s appropriate to give it to the Young Master directly."
"We should first check if there are any problems with this Golden Healing Pill. If there are none, then it would be best to give it to the Young Master."
Upon hearing this, Xin Gong had a sudden realization.
He gave Master Chen a grateful look.
"Master Chen, you are truly farsighted. I was being reckless."
"You’re right. We must check this Elixir to see if there’s a problem."
"Master Chen, I’ll leave this matter to you."
Xin Gong hadn’t expected Master Chen to be so thorough and considerate of his son.
He only now realized that, after all, he had no connection to that mysterious expert. If the man had tampered with the Elixir, his son would be in grave danger.
Master Chen took the Golden Healing Pill.
He took out so strange instrunts.
He scanned the Golden Healing Pill back and forth.
Finally, he even cut off a small piece from the Golden Healing Pill.
He steeped it in a vial, but there was no reaction inside.
Seeing this, Master Chen breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he said, "Patriarch, there’s no problem."
"You can give it to the Young Master."
As an Alchemist, he naturally had ways to test if an Elixir contained any poison.
But how could he have known that Jiang Chen’s Red Recovery Poison was simply not sothing he could detect?
It had long since perated the Golden Healing Pill.
Afterward, Xin Gong, feeling completely reassured, fed the Golden Healing Pill to his son, Xin Jianren.
"Son, don’t worry. You’ll get better soon."
In his excitent, Xin Jianren clenched his fists tightly.
"Father, I will."
He was extrely eager to get out of bed.
Soon after Xin Jianren swallowed the Golden Healing Pill,
the Golden Healing Pill began to take effect.
The Golden Healing Pill truly lived up to its na as a Holy dicine for healing.
Xin Jianren imdiately felt waves of a tingling, itching sensation, and even a coolness, coming from his wounds.
"Father, it’s really working!"
Xin Jianren said excitedly.
Xin Gong and Master Chen were both pleasantly surprised.
Both of them observed Xin Jianren’s condition.
To their astonishnt, the Golden Healing Pill was indeed incredibly miraculous.
About two hours later, the fractures in Xin Jianren’s limbs had almost completely recovered.
The only oddity was that Xin Jianren’s skin had taken on a strange red hue.
"Huh? What’s going on? Why has my son’s skin turned red?"
Xin Gong was puzzled.
He looked at Master Chen.
"Master Chen, what’s the reason for this? Could the Golden Healing Pill have this kind of side effect?"
Master Chen was completely baffled.
He shook his head. "Impossible. The Golden Healing Pill’s healing properties are the sa as any other Healing Elixir. Neither should cause the skin to turn red."
"Wait. Let’s keep observing."
"After all, the healing effect of the Golden Healing Pill seems even better than we imagined."
Xin Jianren was also startled to discover that his skin was, in fact, very red.
It was as if it had been dyed with pignt.
Although he didn’t understand why, it didn’t seem to have any negative effects.
As he continued to absorb the Golden Healing Pill,
several more hours passed.
Xin Jianren’s injuries had miraculously healed a great deal.
The flesh and bone in his arms and legs had regrown. Xin Jianren even found that strength was returning to his limbs, and he could almost move them.
Of course, the most baffling thing was still the redness of Xin Jianren’s skin, which was growing deeper and deeper.
"What in the world is going on?"
Xin Gong looked at his son, who was now as red as if he’d been dyed, and pressed, "Son, how are you? Do you feel anything else?"
Hearing this, Xin Jianren shook his head.
Suddenly, in the next mont, a wisp of black energy flashed across Xin Jianren’s face.
He quickly clutched his chest.
"Father, my chest feels tight."
Seeing this, Master Chen quickly glanced at the black energy that had flashed across Xin Jianren’s face.
He exclaid in alarm, "Patriarch, this is bad! The Young Master has been poisoned!"
What?
Xin Gong and Xin Jianren were both aghast.
"What’s happening? How could he be poisoned?"
"Didn’t you already check the Golden Healing Pill and say it was fine?"
Master Chen was frantic.
"This isn’t right... I’ve never seen a poison like this before."
Just then, Xin Jianren suddenly let out a loud cry.
"AHHH..."
His now-movable hands clutched his chest as he let out a heart-wrenching scream.
"It hurts so much!"
Xin Gong panicked.
"Son..."
He tried to steady his son, but his son continued to scream incessantly as the redness completely erupted, emitting a red glow.
Amidst the red glow, wisps of black energy could be seen constantly flowing over Xin Jianren’s body and face.
Xin Jianren’s face twisted in agony.
He fell to the floor, convulsing uncontrollably.
White foam frothed from his mouth.
"Quick, Master Chen, save my son! Quickly!"
He was on the verge of collapse. Everything had been going so well, but now this sudden catastrophe had struck.
