Chapter 40: The Detoxification

Suddenly, Luo Xiaoman opened her eyes. Enduring the pain, she shouted in a low voice, “You little beasts, jump down this instance.”

As her voice faded, the creatures went sluggishly to the edge of the cliff and jumped down without hesitation.

After many Bai Hous had jumped down, Luo Xiaoman dropped to the ground. Her small chest rose and fell as she panted desperately.

“Little Master, are you crazy?” At this moment, the Ring Spirit jumped out of the sea of consciousness and said anxiously, “Even if you have strong mental powers, you shouldn’t exhaust yourself like that, otherwise, you’ll die.”

Luo Xiaoman chuckled as she lay on the ground, relaxed and fearless. “Am I not still alive and well?”

“…” Looking at the obstinate face of this little girl, the Ring Spirit was stunned and speechless.

“Ring Spirit, do you have a way to remove the poison in Yuan?” Luo Xiaoman asked with a serious look on her face.

“Yes!”

Hearing this, Luo Xiaoman was overjoyed, but the Ring Spirit’s next response made her depressed again.

“There are antidotes in the elixir garden in the Phantom Ring space, but can you access the elixir garden now?”

Right away, Luo Xiaoman had the urge to choke the Ring Spirit to death. “Don’t talk nonsense. Think of a solution quickly.”

“Tsk tsk, don’t worry.” The Ring Spirit shook its head and said, “This apprentice of yours is strong. There are nine seals in his body, and his strength is immense. He will not die for a while.”

“However, within an hour, you’ll have to find the Icy Poisonous Scorpion and draw its blood. Judging from the current situation, the Icy Poisonous Scorpion’s blood can save him.”

The Icy Poisonous Scorpion’s blood?

Luo Xiaoman frowned and glanced at the cliff. Was she going to climb down to find the Icy Poisonous Scorpion?

Even if she came across it, she would not be able to deal with the Icy Poisonous Scorpion!

Out of the blue, Luo Xiaoman’s lips twitched revealing a sly smile.

Noticing the smile, the Ring Spirit could not help shaking. What devious idea was this little girl thinking of?

Soon, a squad of well-equipped troops arrived at Bai Luo Mountain.

The person leading the troops was a woman who wore a straight, phoenix-patterned blue cloak. She was sharp-eyed, and her body exuded a domineering aura.

“Stop!”

Wan Zitong raised her hand, and everyone halted.

She rolled over and got off her horse. Her roving eyes observed the surroundings.

“Hmph, Luo Xiaoman really came to Bai Luo Mountain.” Wan Zitong hooked the corner of her lips, and her eyes revealed a cold flash. “Listen up, everyone. Get ready for combat and immediately respond to any signs of danger.”

“Yes, Young Lady.”

Wan Zitong flicked her cloak and was the first to step into Bai Luo Mountain’s territory.

Through her meticulous observation, she inferred that Luo Xiaoman should be on the mountainside now. There were many fairly fresh footprints around.

“It’s Bai Hou!” Wan Zitong knelt down to check the grubby footprints. “It seems like Luo Xiaoman had a skirmish with the Bai Hous. There were many of them.”

In reflex, the people of the Wan Family drew their weapons vigilantly one after another.

“Relax.” Wan Zitong hooked the corners of her lips and said faintly, “If my guess is right, these Bai Hous should have been dealt with Luo Xiaoman.”

“No way!” A subordinate frowned and asked in bewilderment, “Isn’t she the girl who can’t cultivate? How can she deal with a level-two monster?”

“Have you forgotten that she has a powerful guardian beast and an escort by her side?” Wan Zitong curled her lips and sneered.

Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned. With those two by her side, these Bai Hous would not be able to defeat them.

“However, they seem to be in even greater trouble.” Suddenly, Wan Zitong came to a cliff with a glint of cold light in her eyes. “Perhaps, we can take this opportunity to be rid of them.”
