Chapter 243: Snake Venom

Lin Qing stepped forward and fought the snake demon together with the Purple Gold Toad. It seemed that the snake demon had extraordinary means, but the Purple Gold Toad seemed to be its natural enemy. With Lin Qing's assistance, it didn't take much effort for Lin Qing to defeat it. In the future, besides the scales on its body that could be used as materials, the flesh and blood of this beast were the best food for the Purple Gold Toad.

After Lin Qing defeated the snake demon, he was supposed to help Master Qin take down the bull demon. However, unexpectedly, Master Qin said to Lin Qing, "Master Lin, I am enough to deal with this bull demon. This beast still has some use for me."

It turned out that Master Qin was worried that after Lin Qing helped him kill the bull demon, Lin Qing would claim the beast for himself. So he didn't let Lin Qing help at this moment.

Lin Qing didn't mind. He didn't step forward and instead found an empty space to sit down with the Purple Gold Toad, watching Master Qin fight the bull demon.

At this moment, besides the crimson flag, Master Qin also controlled a third-grade magic sword to fight against the bull demon. The bull demon had immense strength and strong defense. Each strike of the magic sword only caused a slight wound, not enough to harm the bull demon, but it made the bull demon become more irritable.

When the bull demon became irritable, its strength increased significantly. Every impact made Master Qin's crimson flag sway, which was quite frightening.

However, Master Qin didn't request any help from Lin Qing, but instead fought the demon on his own.

Lin Qing was happy to watch the show, observing the battle between Master Qin and the demon.

However, Master Qin had a magic weapon and Lin Qing by his side, which put great pressure on the bull demon. Although the bull demon was powerful, it was eventually pierced through the eye by Master Qin's sword, ending its life.

However, Master Qin's crimson flag was already in tatters, looking like it had been damaged.

After putting away the flag and the bull demon's corpse, Master Qin smiled at Lin Qing and was about to say something. However, his face suddenly turned extremely pale, and he immediately sat down and started circulating his cultivation technique. His face turned white and red alternately, and after a while, he vomited a large amount of black-red blood. His aura weakened significantly in an instant.

"Master Qin, are you alright?" Lin Qing asked with concern when he saw this sudden scene.

Master Qin looked at Lin Qing, his eyes filled with a touch of bitterness, and slowly said, "I'm temporarily fine, but it will take some time to completely eliminate the poison in my body."

"Oh?"

Lin Qing looked at Master Qin. After killing the snake demon, he didn't get poisoned.

"Master Qin, what happened today?" Lin Qing asked about the reason why Master Qin sought help. This place was not the territory of his Lin family or the Immortal Mist Sect. Why did Master Qin come here and get besieged by three demon beasts?

Master Qin was about to answer, but the toxicity surged up again, so he quickly circulated his cultivation technique and took a lot of antidote pills.

Seeing Master Qin like this, Lin Qing had a thought that perhaps this poison was not so easy to cure. It would be a pity if it harmed his foundation.

After waiting for a quarter of an hour, Master Qin stood up again. However, he didn't speak first. Instead, he directly left with Lin Qing. After all, he was also afraid that the demon beasts would come back.

After leaving this place, Lord Qin's face turned pale, but the toxicity had been temporarily suppressed, and at this moment, he began to speak to Lin Qing.

After listening to Lord Qin's account, Lin Qing glanced at him and couldn't help but feel some admiration for him.

The reason why Lord Qin came here, according to what he said, was to gather information about the demonic beasts. This place used to be the territory of his Qingfeng Sect, but it has been occupied by demonic beasts for ten years. He couldn't sit still anymore. Although he couldn't drive away the demonic beasts for the time being, it was still good to gather some information. This kind of action was not the first time. He had already done it seven or eight times alone in the past year. He just didn't expect to encounter demonic beasts this time, let alone three in a row. Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked for help from Lin Qing.

"I see, Lord Qin is truly devoted to the sect."

Lin Qing said to Lord Qin at this moment. He really didn't expect that Lord Qin came here for this reason. He also had other personal matters. To venture into dangerous territory for the sake of the sect, Lord Qin seemed to be a good sect leader.

What Lin Qing didn't know was that in recent years, the remaining members of the Qingfeng Sect in the Xianxia Sect, although facing a beast tide, the Xianxia Sect didn't say anything and even had a very close relationship with the disciples of the two sects. But Lord Qin felt that this situation was not good in the long run. He was anxious to restore the sect's territory, so he kept gathering information and looking for opportunities. He didn't expect to recover all of it, but even recovering a part would be acceptable.

"This matter shouldn't be so simple," Lord Qin said and suddenly added.

"Hmm? What do you mean by that?" Lin Qing was a little puzzled.

Lord Qin spoke, "Since I came to gather information, I have prepared many methods and have been extremely cautious and discreet. How could those demonic beasts find out, and three of them in a row? They usually gather together, so how did they manage to coincide with me?"

"Lord Qin, are you saying..." Lin Qing understood what Lord Qin meant.

At this moment, Lord Qin smiled self-deprecatingly, his eyes filled with resentment as he said, "There are quite a few people who hope for my death now."

Lin Qing didn't respond to this. He didn't want to get involved in these matters.

"Well then, Lord Qin, since the crisis has been resolved, I will take my leave," Lin Qing said.

"Fellow Daoist Lin, take care," Lord Qin replied, expressing his gratitude in his words.

As he was about to leave, Lin Qing couldn't help but say a few more words, "Lord Qin, there's no need to do this in the future. It's not worth it if more demonic beasts come. The situation is gradually improving now, and it's only a matter of time before the Qingfeng Sect is restored."

Lord Qin smiled, but then shook his head with a hint of helplessness.

"Master Lin, I won't be able to come in the near future. This poison is quite deep, and it will take several years, or even ten years, to completely eliminate it. During this period, my strength will be affected. If everything goes well, it won't affect my future cultivation. But if things don't go well, I'm afraid even my foundation will be damaged," Lord Qin said with a bitter smile.

"Take care, Fellow Daoist," Lin Qing could only say that.

After that, Lin Qing left, and Lord Qin stood in place, looking into the distance. He muttered to himself, "Bai Bao Tower? Or perhaps it's the Xianxia Sect. Don't let me find out who it is."

After a while, he also left. But even on the flying boat, he still held his chest. He had just said too little about the words he said to Lin Qing.

This poison was much more serious than he had imagined.

"The world is full of difficulties, and fortune and misfortune are intertwined." Lord Qin muttered to himself when he was about to reach the Xianxia Sect, his mouth filled with words, not knowing what he was thinking. Then he calmed down completely, looking just like usual, showing no signs of being poisoned.
