Dr. An hurriedly caught it, then couldn’t help but express with a hint of excitement, “Is this the antidote?”
As the words fell, Dr. An impatiently opened the bottle and took a deep breath.
The result was that this breath almost suffocated Dr. An alive!
What kind of devilish smell is this? It’s so smelly that his nose is falling off!
Dr. An was nearly blinded by the stench, doubling over in dry heavens.
“Dr. An, what are you doing? This thing isn’t meant to be sniffed like that!” Yun Xiao looked at Dr. An in disappointment. He dared not recall the strange smell of the antidote. “This antidote smells very strange. Don’t let the smell spread out. Hurry up and give it to Eldest Miss.”
“Yes.” Dr. An quickly straightened Qu Xiaodie’s body, then held his breath and placed the bird-dropping-like antidote into Qu Xiaodie’s mouth.
Qu Xiaodie, in a daze, was force-fed what felt like bird dropping and almost spat it out.
“Cover her mouth. Don’t let her waste it!” Lady Qin hurriedly said loudly.
Qu Xiaodie was forced to swallow the bird droppings and immediately began to vomit blood. Only after she spat out all the poisonous blood in her body did she finally fall asleep.
Dr. An saw that the blisters had subsided and quickly approached to check Qu Xiaodie’s pulse. Then he said with a face full of surprise, “Sect Master, the poison in Miss’s body has been cured!”
When Qin Guang and Lady Qin heard this, they immediately let out a sigh of relief.
Su Qian felt overwhelmed by the room’s b.l.o.o.d.y smell and couldn’t help but rub her temples and said, “Alright, since the antidote has been given, I’ll be leaving now.”
“Wait a minute!” Qin Guang looked at Su Qian incredulously. “What about us?”
Su Qian stopped in her tracks, seemingly not understanding what Qin Guang meant.
Qin Guang’s anger flared up in an instant. He said angrily, “What about us? What about me and my daughter? Where is our antidote?”
Su Qian looked at Qin Guang as if she was looking at a fool. “You only paid Qu Xiaodie’s consultation fee, not yours and your daughter’s. Why should I give you the antidote?”
“You, you charge such a high consultation fee for one person?” Lady Qin widened her eyes and asked in horror.
They had just given Su Qian a ninth-grade medicine cauldron!
Such a precious item and it only covered the consultation fee for one person?
“Yes.” Su Qian said matter-of-factly, “If you want the antidote, it’s actually easy. As long as you hand over the Thousand-Year Fire Lingzhi and the Heavenly Mountance Ice Essence Jade from your sect, I’ll give you the antidote.”
The Heavenly Constellation Myriad Beast Cauldron, the Thousand-Year Fire Lingzhi, and the Heavenly Mountance Ice Essence Jade were the three treasures that const.i.tuted the sect’s prized treasures for Tianji Sect. They were also the reason why Su Qian stayed in Tianji Sect this time.
Seeing Su Qian mention all the names of their sect’s prized treasures in one breath, Qin Guang’s entire body trembled as he said in disbelief, “You did it on purpose? You’ve been thinking about our Tianji Sect’s prized treasure from the very beginning?”
Su Qian smiled and didn’t deny it. “Whether you’re willing to make a deal with me or not, it’s all up to you, Sect Master.”
Su Qian’s leisure att.i.tude infuriated Qin Guang to the point of almost spitting blood.
He fell for Su Qian’s trap!
Su Qian claimed to give him the choice, but in reality, he had no right to choose!
If he refused to make a deal with Su Qian, then he would be left with only a dead end.
Su Qian was clearly strangling his neck, pressing down on his head, and putting a knife to his heart.. And yet she insisted that he wasn’t being forced, pushing him to make a decision!
