All of this seed to happen in a flash. Everyone saw a few figures quickly moving around the scene, and then they saw two Church mbers fall to the ground injured, while an old man on Nalan Jingwei's side was cut off an arm by the Great Lord, blood spurting out terrifyingly.
The old man was indeed too careless. Earlier, when he launched a surprise attack on the Church mber, he didn't notice that the Great Lord was already preparing to rescue them from behind. Although he successfully ambushed the Church mber, he paid a painful price by having an arm severed by the Great Lord.
The Great Lord still wanted to take the life of the old man, but the old man was quite shrewd. Despite suffering a severe injury, he didn't hesitate at all and rolled away imdiately. Once he evaded the Great Lord's attack, he embraced his severed arm and wailed, unable to bear the pain, looking as if he had aged several years in an instant.
These rapid developnts left everyone on the scene stunned, and both sides found themselves in a standoff, with no one daring to make the first move.
The stalemate lasted about a minute, with both parties probing each other's situation, while the atmosphere on site seed to freeze. The three injured on the ground had everyone's nerves tightened, fearing that they too could be the next to fall. Everyone was thus terrified yet even more vigilant.
Just when nobody made a move, suddenly, Ye Qing walked out from behind the crowd. He had been captured by the Great Lord earlier, but the Great Lord, focused on rescuing the Church mbers, had temporarily set him aside, allowing Ye Qing to now move freely.
Seeing Ye Qing co forward, everyone was puzzled, unsure of his intentions. Nevertheless, no one dared harm Ye Qing; firstly, they needed him alive to obtain the Buddha's Relic. Secondly, they truly couldn't kill Ye Qing, having witnessed Nalan Jingwei's attempts earlier. Despite Nalan Jingwei's strength, he failed to break Ye Qing's neck, leaving everyone speculating what was really happening.
Ye Qing ignored the stares from everyone and went straight to the heavily injured Church mbers lying on the ground. He helped them sit up, checked them over, and then took out so Devouring Demon Flower fragnts, feeding them to the two individuals.
"What are you feeding them? They aren't poisoned, they're injured!" the Great Lord couldn't help but ask upon witnessing the scene. He recognized the antidote Ye Qing retrieved, having consud it himself earlier. But why was Ye Qing feeding the antidote to these two n now?
After Ye Qing fed the two n the Devouring Demon Flower fragnts, he slowly laid them down and then looked at the Great Lord, saying, "It's the sa."
"The sa?" The Great Lord was briefly stunned, unsure how antidotes and healing dicines could be the sa.
While the Great Lord was puzzled, the two injured n slowly stood up, making everyone widen their eyes in disbelief.
These were individuals injured by the Executioner Scholar, whose power as a Peak Master was terrifying. Though they were Peak Masters, they suffered debilitating wounds and couldn't even stand. Yet who would've thought that after consuming the Devouring Demon Flower, they'd rise to their feet.
Witnessing the two stand, the Great Lord's deanor changed. He stared in astonishnt at the two individuals, his voice trembling as he asked, "You... You two, how... How are you now?"
The two exchanged glances, with one saying, "It's strange, what he gave seems to have rapidly healed my injuries. I'm nearly recovered, and my strength is quickly returning. In less than half an hour, I'll be fully restored!"
The other nodded in agreent, saying, "I'm the sa."
"How... How is this possible?" The Great Lord's eyes almost bulged out of their sockets. Though the Church had potent healing dicines, none were as miraculous as this. Two individuals gravely injured by a Peak Master, rising less than a minute after consuming the dicine—seeing it firsthand was the only way he'd believe it was true.
Yet the undeniable fact was before him; not only were the two standing, their injuries were nearly healed. Remarkably, their strength rapidly recovered, with full restoration possible in less than half an hour—a truly shocking developnt. The Great Lord, well-experienced in these matters, understood that recovering from such injuries wasn't too challenging. However, regaining strength wasn't so simple. Nevertheless, these two were not only healing quickly but regaining their power within such a short period—how was this possible?
Listening to the duo's words, Ye Qing developed a rough understanding of Du Canglang's strength. Du Canglang consud the Devouring Demon Flower earlier, and based on his account, his power would return within two hours. These two n would regain their power within half an hour, allowing a comparison of prowess between the parties. Though Peak Masters' power was equivalent, Du Canglang was evidently much stronger, hence requiring a bit more ti for full recovery.
The surrounding Executioner Scholar, Nalan Jingwei, and others appeared visibly shaken by the unfolding events. Although unfamiliar with foreign languages, the expressions revealed the general situation. Regardless of other aspects, seeing the two rise after consuming the Devouring Demon Flower was a shocking experience they witnessed firsthand.
Actually, Nalan Jingwei was sowhat familiar with the Devouring Demon Flower fragnts. During their alliance against the Corpse Ghost Dragon in Shenchuan City last ti, Ye Qing had given him so fragnts to replenish his strength. However, he didn't know what they were or their extraordinary effects. Now witnessing the effects, he was utterly shocked. The Devouring Demon Flower fragnts were notably more potent than the Ziyu Chenxiang Pill!
Understandably, the Ziyu Chenxiang Pill was renowned among the Shen Family as a miraculous Holy dicine strongly effective for healing injuries and restoring strength. However, it had limitations. For those below Peak Master level, the Ziyu Chenxiang Pill worked wonders. But for Peak Masters like Nalan Jingwei, even ten pills might not suffice for rapid recovery.
Nevertheless, the Ziyu Chenxiang Pill remained highly sought-after, known as one of the best Healing Holy dicines in the realm. Apart from the Ziyu Chenxiang Pill, they hadn't encountered any better Healing Holy dicine.
However, Ye Qing's reveal of the Devouring Demon Flower fragnts completely transford perceptions of healing dicines. The crowd's view of Ye Qing changed drastically. Setting aside the Buddha's Relic, the Devouring Demon Flower alone was enough to provoke everyone to take action against Ye Qing!
Considering the Buddha's Relic issue, Ye Qing was akin to a treasure trove, attracting everyone to vie for him.
The Great Lord certainly was delighted, having assud earlier that the Devouring Demon Flower served only as an antidote. Yet discovering its miraculous healing strength restoration effect, which was crucial for the Church's cause. Since the Church's pursuit of the Buddha's Relic aid to prevent Huaxia Martial Artists from countering the Church, they knew they couldn't utilize the Buddha's Relic. It would rely adorn the Church, just as previously stated.
However, the Devouring Demon Flower represented a paradigm shift in Healing Holy dicine capable of attracting worldwide attention. Though flooded with experts, such dicine alone could shake the Church. If the Church were to launch a major assault on Huaxia, casualties would ensue. Thus, obtaining such Healing Holy dicine would significantly minimize the Church's losses. If he could deliver it to the Church, that'd be a genuine accomplishnt!
Moreover, Ye Qing had assured him earlier that aiding in obstructing Nalan Jingwei would grant insight into the Buddha's Relic and Healing Holy dicine developnts. Now, his concern rests solely on whether Ye Qing's promise holds.
"Ye Qing, you rember what you said earlier, right?" The Great Lord asked Ye Qing, his tone laced with faint tension.
"I won't forget," Ye Qing answered solemnly. "But I need you to do a favor."
"Go ahead!" The Great Lord replied straightforwardly, eager to understand the Healing Holy dicine's origin and willing to assist Ye Qing.
"Once you obtain these two things, help kill that old scoundrel Nalan Jingwei!" Ye Qing stated firmly, eyes gleaming with coldness, seemingly filled with hatred toward Nalan Jingwei.
Though clueless about Ye Qing's enmity with Nalan Jingwei, the Great Lord felt steadier upon seeing Ye Qing's expression. Previously puzzled by Ye Qing's willingness to share information, he now grasped it. Ye Qing sought retribution against Nalan Jingwei but lacked the strength, prompting cooperation with him.
The Great Lord glanced at Nalan Jingwei. Although skilled, Nalan Jingwei posed little difficulty for him. Thus, without hesitation, he sneered, "It's no problem. I'll surely help you kill him!"
