The frenzied voice of the Great Elder of Qingyue Sect echoed in the ears of everyone on the plaza.
Those elders and disciples who originally supported Liu Shanshi, at this mont, felt utterly betrayed in their hearts. They had been absolutely loyal to Liu Shanshi, never having second thoughts, yet he had secretly poisoned them? Anger roared inside them as they felt the blood in their bodies evaporating through the cracked blood marks. The feeling of their blood reducing bit by bit was truly unbearable.
In Xue Wanqing’s beautiful eyes, flas of anger flickered, and a shadow of gloom appeared on her face. If so many elders and disciples of Qingyue Sect died, then her years of efforts would be entirely for naught. Her cold gaze fixed on the Great Elder.
Wrinkles covered the faces of Zhao Bo and Li Bo, instantly filled with uncontrollable anger. The late Liu Shanshi seed bent on utterly destroying Qingyue Sect, which was absolutely a massive blow to Xue Wanqing.
The faces of Yang Haotian and others, who were not poisoned, were also filled with worry. If things continued like this, then Qingyue Sect might vanish from the Spirit Continent by tomorrow.
Ye Chenfeng frowned deeply; he had so affection for Xue Wanqing. As he looked at each elder and disciple in the plaza, their bodies covered with densely cracked blood marks, watching as their blood evaporated continuously, he saw how they tried to channel the Spiritual Qi River in their ridians, but all to no avail.
Ye Chenfeng quickly searched his mind for the recipe of the Green Origin Life-Restoring Pill, but the voice of Old Bai Wu Fengxian rang in his mind: "Little guy, there’s not enough ti. There are over two thousand people here, and the vicious poison is rapidly spreading in their bodies. You simply don’t have ti to refine the Green Origin Life-Restoring Pill."
"Ah~"
A miserable scream interrupted Ye Chenfeng’s thoughts that were about to be shared with Old Bai.
The one who scread was none other than the Great Elder of Qingyue Sect, in whom blood and bones dried far more intensely than others, and the poison in his body was spreading the fastest.
This blood and dried bones could only be barely suppressed by those above the third layer of the Spirit God Realm.
The blood marks on the Great Elder of Qingyue Sect’s body kept expanding as the blood within him evaporated at a speed visible to the naked eye. His expression was grueso and painful, with blood involuntarily flowing from the corner of his mouth. He roared with red eyes: "I’m going ahead. I’ll wait for you in Yama’s Palace."
The skin of the Great Elder of Qingyue Sect rapidly shriveled, and his cheeks hollowed like a skull.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! ——"
Continuous explosions sounded from within the Great Elder’s body. His bones turned to powder one by one, and even his skull exploded, leaving his body as nothing but a puddle of flesh.
After witnessing the Great Elder’s horrific death, the elders and disciples in the plaza gasped, and many weaker disciples even began to tremble.
Xue Wanqing frowned and said: "Zhao Bo, Li Bo, imdiately give those present Second Grade or Third Grade Detoxification Pills to see if they are effective."
Zhao Bo imdiately went to Qingyue Sect’s storage for the elixir pills.
Li Bo had so Second Grade, Third Grade, and even Fourth Grade Detoxification Pills in his storage ring, but not the Fifth Grade Green Origin Life-Restoring Pill.
Li Bo imdiately gave so elders Third Grade Detoxification Pills. After they took the elixirs, the evaporation of blood within them surprisingly slowed down, showing that the Third Grade Detoxification Pills indeed had so inhibitory effect on the blood and dried bones.
But the effect was limited. Even though the evaporation of blood slowed in the elders who took the detoxification pills, their blood was still evaporating at a slow pace.
Zhao Bo quickly returned to the plaza, bringing many Second Grade, Third Grade, and Fourth Grade Detoxification Pills. With Xue Wanqing, Yang Haotian, and others, all elders and disciples present took the detoxification pills, temporarily slowing the evaporation of blood in their bodies.
However, at this rate, the elders and disciples in the plaza could only hold on for a maximum of one or two days.
A hint of panic flashed in Xue Wanqing’s eyes as she said: "Zhao Bo, Li Bo, what should we do next?"
With a heavy expression, Zhao Bo said: "This situation is troubleso. The nearest Alchemy Pavilion branch from Qingyue Sect has a Pavilion Master who is just a Fifth-Rank Alchemist, and we don’t have ti to invite him to refine the Green Origin Life-Restoring Pill for us."
"Besides, even if we had ti, the Pavilion Master of the Alchemy Pavilion branch might not do us the favor, and a Fifth-Rank Alchemist wouldn’t be able to refine over two thousand Green Origin Life-Restoring Pills in a short ti."
Li Bo also sighed: "More than two thousand Fifth Grade Pills—gathering all the Alchemists above Fourth-Rank in the Tian Xuan Realm’s Alchemy Pavilions might still not get it done within one to two days."
Upon hearing this, helplessness appeared in Xue Wanqing’s beautiful eyes. If all these elders and disciples died, she would be unable to lead her disciples to participate in the Tian Xuan Grand Event because Qingyue Sect wouldn’t even qualify as a sect anymore.
Xue Wanqing had persevered for so many years, aiming to return to the Central Continent, to have so people there personally invite her back to the family, making the man from the Central Continent kneel at her mother’s grave in penance.
But now, after all those years of effort, she was about to return to the Central Continent via the Tian Xuan Grand Event, yet the current situation pushed her into despair, making her a helpless woman. The queen-like aura between her brows had completely vanished.
Seeing Xue Wanqing in this state, Zhao Bo and Li Bo felt heartache as they had watched Xue Wanqing grow up, treating her like their granddaughter.
Yang Haotian, Chen Yuanxiong, and Li Xinwen, too, remained silent.
The atmosphere in the plaza turned sowhat heavy.
The elders and disciples whose blood evaporation had slowed had no hope in their hearts.
Ye Chenfeng, standing not far away, had been standing still since earlier. He didn’t join Xue Wanqing and the others in distributing the elixirs. In his heart, he began another conversation with Old Bai.
Ye Chenfeng asked: "Old Bai, is there really no way?"
Old Bai Wu Fengxian replied: "There is a way, but are you sure you want to help them?"
Ye Chenfeng glanced at Xue Wanqing, who looked clueless, and internally said: "I’ll give it a shot! At least this woman, Xue Wanqing, genuinely isn’t bad."
Old Bai Wu Fengxian said: "Alright! Even though it’s too late to refine the Fifth Grade Green Origin Life-Restoring Pill, you cultivate the Divine Blood Art. Using Divine Blood along with so Spirit Grass and ten million High-Grade Spirit Stones, you can set up a formation called the Divine Blood Poison-Cracking Formation."
"With your current strength, you can barely set up and activate this formation. Once it’s activated, you should be able to detoxify these two thousand people together."
After hearing Old Bai’s response, confidence surged in Ye Chenfeng’s heart. He walked towards Xue Wanqing and patted her on the shoulder.
Xue Wanqing looked at Ye Chenfeng with her beautiful eyes. Seeing that Ye Chenfeng didn’t co to help just now, she was filled with disappointnt and a tinge of heartache. She resolutely said: "You should go! After today, Qingyue Sect will no longer exist, and you won’t be able to participate in the Tian Xuan Grand Event through our Qingyue Sect. With your aptitude, it should be easy for you to join other sects."
Ye Chenfeng placed his hands on Xue Wanqing’s fragrant shoulders, making her look him in the eye.
Then, Ye Chenfeng said: "Imdiately get ten million High-Grade Spirit Stones."
The smile on Xue Wanqing’s face gradually cooled as she said: "Ye Chenfeng, I misjudged you. Do you want to give you ten million High-Grade Spirit Stones before you leave?"
Clearly, Xue Wanqing misunderstood.
Ye Chenfeng’s voice also turned colder as he said: "Xue Wanqing, if you want your sect to continue to exist, if you want all these people to survive, then do as I say imdiately. If it weren’t for you being a genuinely decent person, I wouldn’t bother with you even if you begged."
