Mortal Seeking Immortal

Seeing Ye Zhou frowning slightly, the white-haired monk who was watching from the side showed a proud look on his face, and sneered in his heart: "Boy, it's too late now that you know it's tricky!"

Some of the monks in the room looked at Ye Zhou with regret in their eyes.

Ye Zhou didn't pay attention to the expressions of the other monks in the room. He frowned and thought for a few breaths, and said in his heart: "Now it seems that the only way is to use that method."

Ye Zhou quickly took out a silver needle from the storage ring, asked the housekeeper to take off the clothes on the head of the Xu family, and began to apply needles to every acupuncture point on the head of the Xu family.

Ye Zhou applied the needle very quickly. In just a few breaths, he had pricked all the acupuncture points on the head of the Xu family.

After doing this, Ye Zhou put down the silver needle in his hand and released a stream of spiritual power into the body of the head of the Xu family, traveling along the meridians of the head of the Xu family, using his spiritual power to force out the medicinal properties of the head of the Xu family.

This process was long and complicated. Ye Zhou patiently controlled his spiritual power to force out the medicinal properties bit by bit from the silver needle holes on the acupuncture points.

At this time, the monks standing in the room already knew what Ye Zhou wanted to do. Some monks couldn't help but sweat for Ye Zhou. When the white-haired monk saw this scene, he snorted softly: "Huangkou kid, Don’t overestimate your capabilities.”

Although Ye Zhou's method can force out the medicinal properties of the head of the Xu family, it is too risky. If the spiritual power input into the body of the head of the Xu family is slightly off, it will be the last straw for the head of the Xu family, so even if he is present Some monks know that this method is useful, but they dare not take action.

Furthermore, the head of the Xu family is currently in critical condition. Using spiritual power to extract the medicinal properties cannot be done too hastily but must be done step by step. Therefore, this process takes a long time and cannot be stopped once started.

Controlling spiritual power for a long period of time is undoubtedly a huge test for the souls of monks. The souls of ordinary monks in the foundation-building stage are far from enough to support them in exorcising the medicinal properties of Xu family heads. Only souls like Ye Zhou are powerful enough to be comparable to monks in the pill-forming stage. Only then can I have the confidence to take action.

Time passed little by little, and some silver needle holes on the acupuncture points on the body of the head of the Xu family began to slowly seep out a light brown liquid the size of a needle tip. As more and more liquid seeped out, a faint flow of light appeared in the room. The aroma of the elixir, this light brown liquid is the medicinal properties of the elixir that the monk surnamed Ning just fed to the head of the Xu family.

As the light brown liquid was forced out of the body by Ye Zhou, the breath of the head of the Xu family was no longer as weak as before, but became more stable.

The steward who was standing by was the first to notice this scene. He breathed a sigh of relief and said with joy on his face: "This method really works!"

When the white-haired monk heard this, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth. He looked at Ye Zhou's back and murmured in a low voice: "Let you be proud for a while longer, and we will see how you end up later."

An hour later, Ye Zhou had controlled his spiritual power to force out all the medicinal properties from the body of the head of the Xu family. Light brown liquid emerged from every acupuncture point on the body of the head of the Xu family, and his face did not look as it did before. His face was as golden as paper, but became slightly rosy.

This time, the head of the Xu family forced the medicinal properties out of his body, which consumed a lot of spiritual energy in Ye Zhou's body. Ye Zhou's face turned slightly pale and he stopped his hand to withdraw the spiritual energy.

None of the monks present expected that Ye Zhou could successfully force the medicinal properties out of the body of the head of the Xu family. At this moment, they all looked at Ye Zhou in surprise. The arrogant posture of the white-haired monk standing behind Ye Zhou had completely disappeared. , looking at Ye Zhou with complicated eyes.

The butler who was waiting on the side saw this and hurriedly stepped forward to help the head of the Xu family lie on the bed. Seeing that the head of the Xu family still had his eyes closed, the housekeeper looked at Ye Zhou and asked anxiously: "Master, my master's current situation. How? When can I wake up?"

Before Ye Zhou could reply, he saw the head of the Xu family lying on the bed humming softly. Then he opened his eyes. His sharp eyes quickly looked around the room, and finally landed on Ye Zhou who was closest to him. After looking at Ye Zhou for a moment, the head of the Xu family said, "Did you save me just now?"

Ye Zhou nodded.

The head of the Xu family signaled the housekeeper to help him up from the bed, and leaned on the soft pillow behind him. He looked directly at Ye Zhou and said, "Thank you so much for helping this fellow Taoist just now. Do you dare to ask for your name?"

Ye Zhou replied calmly: "Ye Zhou."

The head of the Xu family nodded slightly, his eyes condensed, as if he was thinking. After two breaths, the head of the Xu family said: "It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Ye. I heard that the Mu family sent four alchemists to diagnose my illness, and one of them was an alchemist. It seems that his surname is Ye. I wonder if he is a fellow Taoist?"

Ye Zhou nodded and said: "It was the head of the Mu family who asked me to come here to diagnose you, head of the family."

The head of the Xu family looked at the housekeeper who was standing aside with his hands down and said: "Young Daoist Ye saved my life this time, and he is the alchemist sent by the head of the Mu family. I must not treat you badly and give you a heavy reward."

The housekeeper immediately reached out and took out a storage bag from his arms and handed it to Ye Zhou, saying respectfully: "It's a small thought, but it's not a sign of respect. I hope Immortal Ye won't dislike it."

Ye Zhou did not refuse. He reached out to take the storage bag from the butler and stepped aside. He used his consciousness to look into the storage bag. He saw that there were more than a dozen jade bottles containing elixirs and some monsters in the storage bag. Inner elixir, hundreds of middle-grade spiritual stones, and two high-grade foundation-building magical tools.

As expected, the head of the Xu family was generous. Ye Zhou put the storage bag into his arms with a calm expression, and then thanked the head of the Xu family.

Seeing that Ye Zhou had received this reward, the head of the Xu family did not show any joy on his face. It seemed that this man was well-informed and did not take this thing seriously.

The head of the Xu family couldn't help but be a little curious as to what the head of the Mu family had promised this person before he agreed to come to him for diagnosis.

The head of the Xu family did not look at Ye Zhou for too long, but looked at the cultivator surnamed Ning who was sitting in the corner. He frowned slightly, and a hint of coldness appeared in his eyes. He said coldly: "Is it this person who harmed me just now?"

The housekeeper nodded and said: "My lord, it was him."

The cultivator surnamed Ning's face changed drastically when he heard this, and his eyes were full of panic. He looked at the head of the Xu family and said: "It's not me, Senior Xu, I didn't want to harm you. The pill is really non-toxic. I have another one here. If you don't believe me, I can eat it on the spot for you to see."

The head of the Xu family did not pay attention to the words of the cultivator surnamed Ning, but turned his head and ordered the housekeeper: "Pass my order, send someone to send him back to the Ning family, tell the head of the Ning family that this person deliberately destroyed the relationship between my Xu family and the Ning family and wanted to kill me."

The cultivator surnamed Ning looked desperate when he heard this. He thought that he would be fine after Ye Zhou saved the head of the Xu family, but he didn't expect that the head of the Xu family wanted his life as soon as he woke up.

The monk surnamed Ning struggled to stand up and kowtow to the head of the Xu family, asking the head of the Xu family to spare his life, but there were too many ropes and nets on his body that bound him tightly, making him unable to move at all.
