Chapter 71 Medicine King Valley 8
Liu Shaoyuan led Yingyue to the front of the house and knocked on the door.
"Who is it?" A very charming voice came from inside the house, and just hearing that voice made one's body go weak.
The stone door was slowly pushed open, and a beautiful woman with white hair, alluring features, and a voluptuous figure walked out.
What's most eye-catching are the fox ears on her head and the swaying fox tail behind her: "Oh dear, who is it? Isn't it Dan Yuan's little disciple? What brings you here to see this old lady?"
The beautiful woman's slender fingers gently caressed her cheek, her ruby-like eyes looking at the two of them with a questioning gaze.
"..." Liu Shaoyuan gently nudged Senior Sister Ying next to him.
Fortunately, when Yingyue passed by the Medicine King Corridor earlier, she saw this person's portrait. Such a beautiful woman from a foreign land was a sight to behold in the Medicine King Corridor.
"Greetings, Senior Su Yuan, and my master, Master Yao. Today, we were on our way to find the Iron Beast Clan, but when we passed through Medicine Valley, my two junior brothers were poisoned by a strange poison."
"Please, senior, lend a helping hand. I would be extremely grateful." Yingyue bowed.
"I will certainly not refuse the request of my little beauty, but little Shaoyuan, if you want my help, why don't you say anything?" Su Yuan Zunjun looked at Liu Shaoyuan with a teasing gaze.
Under his great-aunt's watchful gaze, Liu Shaoyuan barked, "Woof!"
"Pfft~" Senior Sister Yingyue's shoulders trembled as she slowly turned around.
The old lady covered her mouth and smiled, but didn't forget the important matter: "Little girl, where are your two junior brothers?"
“Senior Suyuan is just outside the formation,” Yingyue said.
The Lady-in-Waiting made a hand seal, and the space seemed to ripple slightly: "Alright, let them in."
"Senior sister, save senior sister!" Cheng Jiu forgot about the blue-eyed golden lion above Gong Cheng's head. Gong Cheng had been making such a fuss before, so she hadn't paid any attention to the lion.
Unexpectedly, not long after Yingyue and Liu Shaoyuan entered the formation, the lion jumped down from the top of the palace.
Cheng Jiu looked at it warily.
It barked at Cheng Jiu, grabbed Cheng Jiu by the collar, and threw him into the air. Cheng Jiu didn't have time to dodge, and the Gong brothers, Gong Cheng and Gong Yu, also became his playthings.
There's no escaping it, there's absolutely no way to escape it.
"Chirp, chirp, I'm flying, chirp." This is Miyagi flapping her arms vigorously.
"Glug, glug." This is Gong Yu, who is like a salted fish being tossed around.
Seeing that no one was restraining him, the little iron beast rode its cloud steed and flew wildly and crashed around the valley.
The scene was utterly chaotic. Cheng Jiu couldn't struggle and could only be tossed around by the blue-eyed, golden-haired lion, feeling utterly hopeless.
Seeing the formation dissipate, Cheng Jiu hurriedly cried for help, "Someone come quickly and save her!"
“Senior Su-won!” Ying-yue looked at the only powerful figure beside her who had the ability to stop the blue-eyed golden lion.
Two flying sleeves flew out from Su Yuan Zun Jun's hand, one catching Cheng Jiu and the other catching the Gong brothers, Gong Cheng and Gong Yu.
After setting the three down, he flicked his sleeve again and tapped the blue-eyed golden lion on the head, causing the lion to immediately collapse to the ground.
The other sleeve caught the iron-eating beast cub that was running around everywhere.
"It's alright, they were just poisoned by a new kind of pill I refined," Venerable Su Yuan explained, seeing that Senior Sister Ying still looked worried.
"Woof woof?" Liu Shaoyuan subconsciously wanted to ask, but forgot that he was poisoned, so he immediately shut up and slowly turned his back.
Su Yuan Zunjun smiled at his appearance. She carried the Iron-Eating Beast cub in one hand and used her other sleeve to bind the Gong brothers and led them into the house.
Although Cheng Jiu was a little weak from being thrown around, he was still able to get into the house.
The room was not small at all; it was a combination of a bedroom and a living room, filled with various utensils. It didn't look like an alchemist's room, but rather more like the house where a witch in a Western fantasy concocts potions.
There was a large table facing due east in the room. It stretched across the entire room from north to south.
There were some utensils on top, and Cheng Jiu could even see beakers. On both sides were shelves with medicines and pills on them.
The labels on the pill bottles and medicines are also colorful, mostly red.
"I remember, the antidote was somewhere here." Sowon-no-King wandered among the potions in the room.
"Oh, I found it. Here!" Sowon took a bright red medicine bottle from the shelf. The red liquid inside looked like blood, both eerie and beautiful.
Liu Shaoyuan took it first, drank a sip, and knew that if he didn't get an antidote soon, he would lose his senses. "Ugh."
Liu Shaoyuan gagged a few times, then touched his throat: "Great, I'm all better!"
Gong Yu was very cooperative with the remaining medicine, drinking it as instructed. However, Gong Cheng was surprised by his stubbornness after being poisoned, and he kept struggling.
In the end, even the most virtuous and noble Sowon couldn't bear to watch any longer and directly forced the medicine down Gongcheng's throat.
There were also the Blue-eyed Golden Lion and the Little Iron-Eating Beast. They must have found the drink so awful that they all struggled on the ground and gagged after finishing it.
Cheng Jiu looked at them with relief on their faces, after all, she was the biggest victim just now!
However, she seemed to have forgotten something, and suddenly slapped her forehead and rolled up her sleeves: "Mo Yu!"
In its half-awake state, Xiaolong seemed to hear her call it, and it raised its head and hissed twice.
Well, this confirmed one thing for Cheng Jiu: the little guy had also been poisoned by an unknown toxin from outside.
Cheng Jiu plucked the little black dragon off his wrist.
"Oh my, I never thought that after so many years, I would still be able to see a junior of the dragon clan." Soo-won-no-jun dripped the potion in her hand into the little black dragon's mouth.
The little black dragon struggled for a moment, then lay limply on Cheng Jiu's hand.
There's also the little cloud beast in the spirit beast pouch, but fortunately, the spirit beast pouch has an isolation function.
After being summoned, the little cloud beast affectionately rubbed against Cheng Jiu's face, "woo woo".
"Don't worry, I'm fine." Cheng Jiu felt incredibly soothed as he touched the little cloud.
After the other animals drank the medicine, they vomited and then collapsed on the ground unconscious.
"Grandma, what are they?" Liu Shaoyuan asked, looking at the few animals on the ground.
"It's nothing, it's just that the poisoning was too severe and they're detoxifying. They'll be fine in a little while."
Sowon-kun held a notebook and a brush that appeared out of nowhere, carefully observing the condition of the animals lying on the ground.
Oh dear, this is wonderful! Because of her pills, those body cultivators who are testing the pills are unwilling to take her orders, even if they offer a high price.
We could only observe the spores in this medicine valley and speculate. Unexpectedly, we found so many more materials: demons, spirit beasts, and humans.
"Grandma, you didn't even inform us about this experiment. What if those newly initiated disciples enter the Medicine Valley? Aren't you afraid of being punished by the sect leader?" Liu Shaoyuan muttered to himself as he squatted down beside her.
"Didn't I notify you? Didn't I notify your senior brother and that Qi Feng disciple outside? Why didn't your senior brother tell you?"
"I remember notifying the sect as well. Today, only you, my precious one who got infected, will choose the Medicine Valley route when returning to the sect." Venerable Su Yuan thought for a moment, thinking that she hadn't notified anyone at all and was just experimenting in the Medicine Valley.
"No, I went to Hailian City these past few days, and went directly to Yaochen City after I came back."
Liu Shaoyuan felt indignant. His senior brother was such a jerk! They had clearly gone together, but he hadn't told them about such a big thing. Did he find it so funny to see his junior brother make a fool of himself?
"I don't know about that, but your senior brother definitely does. Hailian City? Little Shaoyuan, did you go to deal with your family's mess?" Su Yuan Zunjun also knew a little about Liu Shaoyuan.
"I've taken care of everything when I got back this time!" Liu Shaoyuan said with a hint of pride.
"But what kind of pills are you refining, Grandma? They're so effective on humans, they're not some kind of banned drug, are they?" Liu Shaoyuan asked, looking at her.
"Little Shaoyuan, what you said is really hurtful!" Venerable Suyuan glanced at him with the reagent, then mixed three of them together and fed them to the little iron-eating beast.
"Alright, now hurry up and go find this little guy's clan. I remember the Iron-Eating Beast clan is leaving soon."
"Ah, is it really okay to take it over like this?" Liu Shaoyuan asked hesitantly, looking at the cub that had fainted on the ground.
I was supposed to be giving someone a baby cub, but the little guy I gave it to fainted. Isn't this a case of forming a debt of gratitude rather than an enmity?
"Don't worry, it's fine. It will wake up naturally once you bring the little guy there. The physique of the demon race is quite strong."
With that, Lord Suyuan pushed the person away from the hut, waving his hand dismissively, telling her not to disturb her experiment.
