Chapter 107: Chapter 107: The Legendary Genius Junior Ancestor VS White Lotus Outer Sect Junior Sister (Part 21)
“Snap!” Xi Liufeng saw the cup that Ye Bukan had dropped on the ground and roared, “All of you are useless! It’s just some Fire Poison, yet no one can solve it?”
“Liufeng, ah! It hurts so much!” A painful cry came from the inner chamber, and Xi Liufeng hurried into the room, only to see Bai Xinya writhing on the bed.
Her entire body’s skin was an abnormal, flush red, with a touch that felt searingly hot.
When Bai Xinya saw Xi Liufeng enter, she couldn’t help but cry out, “Liufeng! Liufeng, save me…”
Xi Liufeng’s heart ached when he saw Bai Xinya in this state.
Bai Xinya’s head drooped powerlessly, and Xi Liufeng, withdrawing his hand from the back of her neck, stepped out of the room.
He truly loved her; no other woman had ever made him feel this way.
“Young master…” At that moment, an attendant following behind him hesitated to speak.
The attendant hesitated for a long while and then said, “I heard that this Fire Poison can be cured by the Heart’s Blood of someone possessing the Ice Soul Sword Heart…”
Heart’s Blood was the most essential part of one’s spiritual essence, and for a Sword Cultivator, it was undoubtedly extremely important, not to mention the most precious Heart’s Blood.
Xi Liufeng’s gaze darkened, “Everyone knows that the only one possessing the Ice Soul Sword Heart is the Ice Heart Sword Emperor from the Astrolabe Sword Sect, the direct disciple of Venerable Ling Xiao! Are you suggesting I offend a Sword Saint?”
Using the Heart’s Blood of an eighteen-year-old Sword Emperor to save an Outer Sect Disciple, the Astrolabe Sword Sect would never agree.
The attendant, frightened, immediately knelt on the ground: “I have only heard of this, I had no other intentions.”
“Enough! Get up. This matter must never be mentioned to others!”
The subordinate left trembling, and Xi Liufeng stood alone, sinking into deep thought.
By then, Gu Shengyin had already learned of Bai Xinya’s affliction with Fire Poison.
She knew that sooner or later, Xi Liufeng would find out about the cure, and, ultimately, he would turn his attention to her.
Gu Shengyin had to admit: Xi Liufeng’s love for Bai Xinya truly ran deep in his bones.
However, that was not a justification for Xi Liufeng to recklessly harm others for Bai Xinya’s sake.
Gu Shengyin decided to give them a big present.
The next day, a piece of news began to circulate.
It was said that the lover of Xi Liufeng, the young master of Xitian Pavilion, was afflicted with Fire Poison, and the only antidote was the Heart’s Blood of the Ice Heart Sword Emperor of the Astrolabe Sword Sect.
The rumor prompted everyone to watch with gossipy anticipation for what would unfold next.
After all, both parties were too well-known. Xitian Pavilion could be considered a major power in the Tianlan Great World, but when compared to the Astrolabe Sword Sect, there was still a significant gap.
As for the Ice Heart Sword Emperor, there was no need to mention her earlier feats; she had made a huge name for herself in the Tianlan Great World with her lone swordsmanship, and later in the battle at the swamp, she revealed her identity — she was none other than the direct disciple of the Sword Saint Venerable Ling Xiao, a Sword Emperor at just eighteen, a peerless genius with the natural Ice Soul Sword Heart!
Xi Liufeng’s face was ashen. He had kept the matter extremely confidential; who could have leaked the news! Now, if Bai Xinya’s Fire Poison was cured, or if anything happened to the Ice Heart Sword Emperor, everyone’s first suspect would undoubtedly be Xitian Pavilion!
Gu Shengyin smiled slightly: I wonder if you are satisfied with this gift?
