Chapter 305: 305 Ice Continuation Pills

"Hehe, Yun Xiao, if there’s anything you need help with, just say the word!"

Little did he know, as soon as Yun Xiao had finished speaking, before Lu Zhan could say anything, Elder Fu Du from the sideline couldn’t help but chime in first. It seems he also had some unusual thoughts at the moment.

Elder Fu Du, with his increasing familiarity with Yun Xiao, had suddenly realized he was becoming ever more unable to fathom the young man he had known for so long.

Of all the members of the Jade Pot Sect, outside of Yin Huan, it was Elder Fu Du who had met Yun Xiao the earliest. Unfortunately, back then in the Shang Family’s Medicine Pavilion, he completely underestimated the boy who was merely at the Meridian Introduction Realm.

Even when Yun Xiao offered the Pill Recipe for the Yin Transformation Pill, Fu Du thought the kid was just lucky, having stumbled upon an intermediate Spiritual Rank Pill Recipe from somewhere, and was thus trying his best to curry favor with him.

It wasn’t until Yun Xiao’s "Immunity to Hundred Poisons" was revealed that Elder Fu Du once again recognized the depths of Yun Xiao’s resources. However, at that time, Yun Xiao had been bitten by the Three-legged Ice Crystal Toad and was deemed beyond saving by him; why would he pay attention to a dead man?

Thus, Elder Fu Du missed the prime opportunity to recruit Yun Xiao into the Poison Vein faction. By the time he emerged from seclusion after refining the toad into a Meridian Spirit, he discovered that the boy he thought he knew was no longer under his control.

The dazzling performance in the Outer Sect competition, being taken as a direct disciple by Sect Master Yu Shu, and now revealing such formidable methods, perhaps in Elder Fu Du’s heart, he deeply regretted letting go of the monstrous talent that was Yun Xiao.

No matter what, with the current situation, Elder Fu Du wouldn’t dare to act against Yun Xiao, and so he revealed a faint smile that he thought to be warm and welcoming as he preemptively spoke up.

The current Elder Fu Du knew that this kid Yun Xiao harbored many secrets, some of which were even unheard of by them, like the previously seen enhanced version of the minor Qiankun Meridian Array, the Evil Exorcism Pulse Array that cured the extreme Cold Attribute poison in Ling Wan, and just now, the low-level Earth Rank Earth Yang Exorcism Meridian Array.

All three of these Meridian Arrays were unknown to Fu Du before, and now hearing that Yun Xiao seemed about to reveal more techniques, he obviously couldn’t wait, as it might grant him an additional powerful method.

"Hey, Elder Fu Du is skilled in crafting poisons to kill enemies. This business of treating and healing people should be left to the Great Elder!"

With Yun Xiao’s shrewdness and understanding of Elder Fu Du, how could he not know what the latter was thinking? He may not care about these low-level methods, but he certainly wouldn’t be foolish enough to teach them to his enemies.

Having been tactfully rebuffed by Yun Xiao’s indifferent remarks, Elder Fu Du’s old face was caught off guard, yet he could not counter the statement because what Yun Xiao said was true.

Now that the Seven Evil Poisonous Flame’s virulent poison within Li Shan has been contained, it’s true that the poison masters in the Poison Vein faction specialize in poisoning others; leaving such a task to them was obviously inappropriate.

"Yun Xiao is right, Elder Li Shan belongs to my Medical Pulse sect. We won’t trouble Elder Fu Du with this matter!"

Lu Zhan took note of the circumstances, and even if Elder Fu Du and his group were keen to treat Li Shan, he still couldn’t entirely dismiss his suspicions towards those poison masters. It was better to keep Li Shan’s life in his own hands.

Now that even the Great Elder had spoken, Elder Fu Du could say no more, and then he saw Yun Xiao reach over to his waist and wipe, as a blue scroll appeared suddenly in the palm of his hand.

For some reason, when the blue scroll first appeared, everyone felt a chill in the air, as if the scroll itself exuded a faint icy coldness.

"Great Elder, here is the Pill Recipe for the intermediate Spiritual Rank ’Ice Continuation Pill.’ It lists the ingredients required for refining the Ice Continuation Pill, as well as the refining method. You must keep it safe!"

Yun Xiao spoke indifferently, and after his words, he tossed the blue scroll to the Great Elder Lu Zhan, who fumbled to catch it, his face revealing a slight smile.

"This kid really has a wealth of amazing things!"

Hearing Yun Xiao’s words, Elder Fu Du and Mo Li, among others of the Poison Vein sect, contemplated thoughtfully. Their gazes kept sweeping over Yun Xiao’s Waist Storage, seemingly trying to discern how many more precious things were hidden inside.

Following their gaze, Yun Xiao did not disappoint, reaching into his Waist Storage again and, with a swipe, a jade box appeared out of thin air.

Seeing the jade box, Mo Qing’s expression shifted, finding it somewhat familiar, and then she heard Yun Xiao say, "This is the Ice Whisker Grass, the most important main ingredient for refining the Ice Continuation Pill. The Great Elder probably doesn’t have it, so use mine for now!"

Hearing Yun Xiao’s words, Mo Qing internally exclaimed "as expected"; they had picked the Ice Attribute herb together in the Meridian Treasure, and for that Ice Attribute herb, they had even fought a fierce battle with Yue Qi and Yin Huan.

As Lu Zhan took the jade box, which also emitted a cold chill, everyone’s gaze remained fixed on the modestly dressed youth, eager to see what else he might produce.

However, this time, Yun Xiao had no further actions. In truth, if it weren’t for his favorable impression of Li Shan, why would he expend so much effort to dispel the poison for him and take out a scroll containing a mid-Spiritual Rank Pill Recipe?

Whether it was the low-level Earth Yang Exorcism Meridian Array of Earth Rank or this Spiritual Rank Intermediate Pill Recipe, both would likely fetch sky-high prices at some auctions, especially the former. If the news were to leak out, the threshold of the Jade Pot Sect would be trampled to dust.

To refine the Ice Continuation Pill, of course, one wouldn’t only need Ice Whisker Grass, but many other Spiritual Rank Intermediate herbs as well. However, Yun Xiao would certainly not provide these things.

After finishing everything, Yun Xiao had turned his head and pointed towards a certain place, speaking: "Second Elder, can we consider the matter of Chi Yan’s theft settled now?"

This was another reason why Yun Xiao had taken great pains to heal Li Shan. The incident in the Mysterious Artifact Hall was indeed Chi Yan’s fault first and foremost. Being a reasonable person, he would not act recklessly just because he was a disciple of the Sect Master.

If it weren’t for Li Shan’s predicament, Yun Xiao would have used his own Points to settle Chi Yan’s troubles first. Now that he had this opportunity, he wouldn’t let it go to waste.

"There’s no need to mention this matter again, heh, if that little fellow needs anything, feel free to tell me. The door of the Poison Vein’s Mysterious Artifact Hall is always open for you."

Elder Fu Du’s words were unexpectedly generous, leaving the Great Elder Lu Zhan, Elder Su He, and even the other two elders from Poison Vein in a state of shock.

The Elder Fu Du of the past would have treasured the Poison Vein’s Mysterious Artifact Hall, seldom allowing disciples or elders of the Medical Pulse to enter easily. Had he changed his nature today?

But, only moments later, Lu Zhan, who knew Elder Fu Du well, realized what this old fox was scheming. It seemed he was trying by all means to lure Yun Xiao to the Poison Vein.

However, Lu Zhan’s thoughts were too simplistic. Elder Fu Du’s desires were not limited to Yun Xiao alone. He also coveted the endless treasures and secrets that might exist within Yun Xiao’s Waist Storage, from the Spiritual Rank Intermediate Pill Recipes to the Earth Rank Meridian Arrays—he wanted them all.

Lu Zhan, with his compassionate heart, could not fathom the old man’s thoughts, but how could Yun Xiao not understand? So, he walked directly to the side of Ling Wan, took the dying Chi Yan, and without replying, straightaway pushed the door and left.

Now that this matter was concluded, Yun Xiao truly had no desire to deal with those from the Poison Vein. Should they start paying attention to him, he feared it might lead to endless trouble.

Chi Yan was severely injured, and Yun Xiao wanted to heal him as soon as possible. Therefore, he took Chi Yan straight back to the Cold Jade Hall. Naturally, with Chi Yan’s Fire Attribute, staying in the Cold Jade Hall was utterly uncomfortable.

Yun Xiao was certainly aware of this situation, but he intended to use the cold qi of the Cold Jade Hall to suppress Chi Yan’s severe injuries. Given that Chi Yan possessed an extremely intense Fire Attribute, with the presently chaotic Fire Attribute qi, perhaps using the power of the Cold Attribute could yield twice the result with half the effort.

Time swiftly passed, and three days went by!

When the morning of the third day arrived, Yun Xiao suddenly opened his eyes, glanced at a spot inside the room, and couldn’t help but smile.

During these three days, Chi Yan had been recovering in that place. Now that he was no longer there, it meant that the little guy’s injuries had healed to some extent and he could no longer stand staying in the chilly environment of the Cold Jade Hall.

Yun Xiao did not ponder much about it. He believed that after suffering great losses that day, Chi Yan would probably not be so reckless anymore, going around and consuming anything with a Fire Attribute.

Moreover, the fact that Chi Yan was now his Vein Demon had probably spread throughout the entire Inner Sect of the Jade Pot Sect. Considering the saying, "not to look at the monk’s face but the Buddha’s face," apart from those like Yin Huan and Bi Luo who had a grudge against him, it was unlikely that anyone would provoke Chi Yan heedlessly.

Knock, knock!

Just as Yun Xiao stood up, someone knocked on the door of the outer hall. When he opened the door to see, a graceful figure wrapped in a black dress was standing outside, looking at him.

"Sister Mo Qing?"

A smile appeared on Yun Xiao’s face. He had a favorable impression of this genius girl from the Medical Pulse lineage. Even though their interactions had been somewhat subtle, he could not deny the fact that Mo Qing had saved his life several times.

"Is Chi Yan alright?"

Mo Qing’s gaze flickered perhaps out of concern for the related, her first question about Chi Yan’s condition seemed to close some distance between her and Yun Xiao.

"Squeak, squeak!"

Just as Mo Qing finished speaking, two familiar voices came from behind her. As she turned her head to look, who else could it be but that grinning fire-red little mouse?

However, from Chi Yan’s voice and qi, Mo Qing obviously felt a hint of hostility. It seemed that the little fellow still harbored some resentment about the incident that happened at Yurong Volcano.
