Chapter 440: You Must Hold It In
Ling Chuxi frowned slightly. She looked at Fu Chengyu who had on a calm expression and looked again at Mo Kongyuan who was waving them goodbye at the door. She knew clearly that what Mo Kongyuan had said was not wrong.
A carriage had long been waiting outside. The few of them climbed into the carriage and headed toward the capital.
The few of them did not talk in the carriage and the atmosphere was clearly quite oppressive. Since he had taken the medical pill given by Ling Chuxi, the symptoms of the chill poison on Fu Chengyu was greatly reduced. But there was not a root cure all this while. He had thought initially that with his cultivation, it would not matter if he delayed a few days further to wait for a complete antidote. But after hearing Mo Kongyuan’s reminder today, only then did everyone realize that a more serious problem was looming.
With the cultivation of Fu Chengyu at the Pinnacle of Battle Qi Level 9, he could achieve a breakthrough anytime. The power of the nine flashes of heavenly lightning had been the natural moat of numerous cultivators. Moreover, the remnant of the poison in his body was not cleared yet. At that time of heavenly lightning striking the body and transformation of the body and cleansing of the marrow, the poison could possibly even deepen into his meridians and bone marrow. Even if he managed to withstand the might of the heavenly lightning, he would not be able to withstand the frost poison invading his body.
The few of them had already experienced heavenly lightning striking the body. They naturally knew clearer than anyone else about the dangers within.
“Chuxi, Senior Brother’s poison… The medicinal herbs you were talking about the last time. Which ones are we still lacking?” Ling Yichen asked Ling Chuxi somewhat anxiously.
“Yes. Rest assured. There’s only one last medicinal herb that we are lacking to make the drug primer. Then I will be able to make the antidote pill.” Ling Chuxi saw the worry on Ling Yichen’s face and said in comfort.
“Only one last herb is lacking?” Ling Yichen was quite shocked. Fu Chengyu was also slightly startled. If he remembered it correctly, Ling Chuxi said there were three medicinal herbs the last time. Later on they got the Thousand Pearl Orchid from Cao Zhibai. But they still had not found the other two medicinal herbs, namely the Thousand Year Stone Lotus and Wu Xie Grass.
“I have already asked for the other medicinal herb from Luo Li.” Ling Chuxi blinked cunningly. With a sacred hand disciple, she would definitely use her resources reasonably. Although the rare herbs that Luo Li had were not complete, he already had a lot too.
Fu Chengyu looked at the smile on Ling Chuxi’s face and felt a warmth in his heart. It turned out that she still cared about his matters and had already looked for all the medicinal herbs privately. He still had a place in her heart. Even if it was friendship, that was enough too.
“Which medicinal herbs do you still need? We will go look for it immediately.” Ling Yichen said somewhat urgently.
“Snow Butterfly Grass!” Ling Chuxi said solemnly.
“Snow Butterfly Grass?” The few of them were completely clueless when it came to alchemy and naturally had not heard of it before.
“According to legends, it grows in the ice cold polar regions and it is very rarely seen. I have only seen it from the atlas and have not seen the real thing either.” Ling Chuxi continued on. This was also the reason why she had not anxiously helped Fu Chengyu to look for the antidote all this while. The ice cold polar regions were rarely trodden by people and there was even danger everywhere. And the Snow Butterfly Grass was so rarely seen. Who would travel so far to a dangerous polar region just for a medicinal herb? The poison in Fu Chengyu’s body had been suppressed temporarily. She had initially planned to wait after the few of them had advanced their cultivation, and bring up the matter of looking for this medicinal herb again. But now that this matter was looming, they could go to all the big medical halls to try their luck first. They could also try to ask over at the Gao Clan Chamber of Commerce.
Ling Yichen’s heart sank slightly after hearing these words from Ling Chuxi. The medicinal herb was actually grown at an ice cold polar region.
“This matter of helping Brother Fu to resolve the poison is looming ahead. We should go and ask all the big medical halls first.” Ling Chuxi said after pondering for a while.
Ling Yichen nodded solemnly. On the other hand, Baili Han turned his head slightly to look at Fu Chengyu and said with all seriousness, “Then, Ninth Prince, before this problem has been resolved, you must hold it in, and don’t breakthrough.”
