The Longevity Family: Starting From The Branches And Leaves

Chapter 25: Li Yourong's Poisoning (Please Collect and Follow)

Five days later.

Li Yourong returned home, looking pale.

This put Chen Ling's worried heart at ease, as Li Yourong had been gone for almost a month.

Fortunately, the eight middle-grade spirit stones did not go to waste!

But Li Yourong went straight into the room and did not show herself again.

The next day, at dawn.

The red sun appeared on the horizon, and the light shone through the courtyard, casting a dazzling array of shadows in the hall.

On the table were steaming spirit porridge, spirit noodles, as well as fried eggs and buns.

Chen Ling and his two wives had worked hard all night, and now the three of them sat around the table, enjoying this hearty breakfast.

"Husband, after we finish eating, Yumei and I plan to go out and buy some daily necessities!"

He Yunxiu finished her spirit porridge and asked Chen Ling.

Chen Ling nodded, eating a bun and smiling, "Be careful!"

Zhu Laoliu and Hu Qing had already been killed by him, so the crisis had been resolved.

He Yunxiu and Yumei had been cooped up at home for more than twenty days, so it was time for them to go out and have a look!

Seeing Chen Ling's agreement, Chu Yu and He Yunxiu both smiled.

"By the way, husband, I saw that Li Daoyou seemed to be seriously injured yesterday, and it seems like she was poisoned!"

Chu Yu saw Chen Ling's gaze occasionally sweeping towards Li Yourong's room and whispered to him.

"Poisoned?!"

Chen Ling put down the bun and squinted his eyes.

In addition to practicing puppetry, Chu Yu was also a spiritual plant cultivator and had some knowledge of medicine.

If she said Li Yourong was poisoned, she shouldn't be wrong.

But this was also normal, after all, entering the Yunmeng Swamp, a place with dense malevolent energy, if the protection was not sufficient, it was easy to be invaded by malevolent energy.

"Can you tell what kind of poison she was poisoned with?" Chen Ling thought for a moment and asked.

"Judging from her unsteady footsteps and purple lips, it's probably the poison gas of a demonic beast."

Chu Yu saw Chen Ling's serious expression and wasn't very confident either, so she replied cautiously.

Chen Ling nodded and decided to ask Li Yourong when she came out after breakfast.

After the meal, Chu Yu tidied up and went out with He Yunxiu, taking Xiaoping'an with them.

Chen Ling gave them some instructions again and, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, used a method to slightly disguise them, making them look older.

Only then did they leave.

After that, Chen Ling went to the cultivation room to practice.

With the incense value accumulated over these days, he added it to the Qingyan Art, and the Qingyan Art had also reached a preliminary level of understanding.

He felt that a new spiritual orifice would soon be opened.

But now the problem was that he had run out of Héqì Pills.

And during these days, there was no news from Shen Zhaoguai's side.

He had already paid for the spirit stones to purchase the Second Dao Pattern Héqì Pills!

"Or I should take these ten magical artifacts to report, and ask about the news of the pills."

Chen Ling thought for a moment, gave up on cultivation, and got up to leave the cultivation room.

Walking out of the room, he saw that Li Yourong's room was still quiet.

After thinking for a moment, he walked over and knocked on the door.

With a creak, the door opened.

Chen Ling was slightly stunned. Li Daoyou had the habit of taking a bath in broad daylight, so he couldn't enter without permission.

But after knocking for a while, it was still quiet inside.

He instinctively felt that something was wrong!

Immediately, he cautiously stepped in.

As soon as he entered the room, Chen Ling saw Li Yourong sitting cross-legged on the light gray rattan bed, her face pale, forehead sweating, lips turning black. Her thin single garment outlined her graceful figure.

As if she had just heard footsteps, Li Yourong opened her eyes. Her thin single garment trembled and slipped down, exposing her graceful body.

Chen Ling was momentarily stunned. Although he felt unwilling in his heart, he thought about Li Yourong's cultivation.

He decisively turned his head, but the beautiful scene on the bed had already imprinted in his mind.

Not only was it large, but it was also as straight as a mountain.

Indeed, the person lived up to their name!

"How did you come in? You haven't received my permission!" Li Yourong saw Chen Ling pretending to turn his head and realized that her single garment had slipped off. She let out a slight exclamation and quickly pulled the blanket to cover her body.

A rare blush appeared on her pale face.

"I came in because I saw that you were poisoned! I brought you two detoxification pills!" Chen Ling took out a pill bottle from his body and handed it over, saying seriously.

Li Yourong was not an inexperienced fledgling. The blush on her face quickly dissipated, and she asked nonchalantly, "Friend Chen, how did you know I was poisoned?"

"Anyone with eyes can see your condition!" Chen Ling said.

Li Yourong subconsciously rolled her eyes at such an irresponsible answer. Her expression was like that of a coquettish young girl, combined with her alluring figure under the thin single garment.

There was an astonishing charm in the intertwining.

It made Chen Ling feel an inexplicable impulse.

Something was not right!

He quickly diverted his attention and asked, "How did it end up like this?"

Li Yourong fell silent for a moment, then said softly, "Friend Chen, you are so concerned about me, afraid that I won't be able to repay the spiritual stones!"

Chen Ling frowned. Am I the kind of person who kicks someone when they're down?

Besides, you said you would repay with your body if you couldn't repay the stones!

"This time, we were originally planning something big. We ambushed a second-stage Ink Armor Blood Spider and had already trapped and killed it. But in the end, we were tricked, resulting in being poisoned by the spider venom."

"Coupled with consecutive battles, breaking through several meridians and acupoints, it's hard to say if I can survive. I'm afraid you won't be able to get your spiritual stones back!" Li Yourong's face became even paler as she murmured.

"Is it that serious? Is there a way to treat the venom of the Ink Armor Blood Spider?" Chen Ling asked instinctively.

He couldn't afford to let his eight hundred and fifty spiritual stones go to waste like this. Moreover, with Li Yourong staying here, there was also some assurance of safety.

Furthermore, from Li Yourong's words, he understood that he had understood correctly. He had been stabbed in the back by his teammates!

But in his opinion, this was normal. Can a casual cultivator who joined halfway be trusted? Even a sow can climb a tree!

Hearing this, Li Yourong shook her head and sighed softly after a long while, "Friend Chen, I originally said that if I couldn't repay the spiritual stones, I would repay with my body. But now, in my current situation, I am powerless!"

As she spoke, she raised her jade-like hand, and black bloodlines could be seen moving on her originally fair arm. These bloodlines were spreading and expanding, looking extremely eerie.

Chen Ling's face changed slightly. "This?"

"It's the venom of the Ink Armor Blood Spider. Once a cultivator is contaminated, this blood web will take root and sprout inside the cultivator's body, constantly devouring their blood and spiritual energy. In the end, the cultivator will wither and die!" Li Yourong retracted her jade-like hand and forced a smile. "Friend Chen, are you sure you still want me to repay with my body?"

"If you do, then my door is open to you at any time!"

As she said this, Li Yourong couldn't help but cough, and a strange blush appeared on her face.

"You should focus on recuperating. We can talk about the spiritual stones later!" Chen Ling placed the pill bottle on the bedside and then left the room.
