"He"s been poisoned." The Beautiful Silk Tulip"s voice suddenly rang out in Tang Wulin"s mind.
"Poisoned? What kind of poison is this?" Tang Wulin asked in his heart.
The Beautiful Silk Tulip replied, "If I"m not mistaken, this should be the Man-eating Nightmare Flower"s Nightmare Toxins. It"s not lethal, but if left untreated, the victim will continue to be unconscious until they eventually die. The toxins are what the Man-eating Nightmare Flower uses to hunt, and it"s ranked seventh among the top 10 poisons found in nature. This man is very powerful; he"s already been poisoned for a very long time, yet he only just fell unconscious, and that"s a testament to both his powers and will."
"What can we do? Can you cure him?" Tang Wulin knew that the Beautiful Silk Tulip"s forte lay in its ability to cure all poisoning.
The Beautiful Silk Tulip replied in a proud manner, "I am the king of all immortal plants; this Nightmare Toxin is indeed very potent, but it"s still not enough to stump me. Take off his clothes; Nightmare Toxins are able to seep into one"s body through their pores, so I won"t be able to draw the toxins out of his body through his clothes."
"You"re the best!" Tang Wulin praised before immediately beginning to take off Lan Fuozi"s clothes.
After taking off Lan Fuozi"s outer garment, he hesitated momentarily before releasing a net of lighting that enshrouded both himself and Lan Fuozi within.
The entire Myriad Beast Plane seemed to be under constant surveillance, so it couldn"t hurt to conceal Lan Fuozi"s body as common etiquette.
After stripping off the outer garment to reveal the clothes inside, Tang Wulin was struck by a rather strange feeling. Lan Fuozi"s skin was very fair and delicate, and he didn"t seem to have much muscle.
Having said that, his pectoral muscles were very well-developed, but every other part of his body was sorely lacking in terms of muscular development.
All of a sudden, Tang Wulin stopped what he was doing.
There was something not right about these curves...
"Did you only just figure it out?" the Beautiful Silk Tulip teased with a hint of schadenfreude in his voice.
"No way!" Tang Wulin murmured to himself.
The Beautiful Silk Tulip countered, "Why not? You"re very adept in disguise techniques yourself; did you not notice that there was something off about her aura, and the fact that she"s constantly giving off a faint fragrant aroma?"
A speechless look appeared on Tang Wulin"s face. "How was I supposed to know? I don"t just go around sniffing people! Only someone like you who"s extremely sensitive to smells would notice. What do I do now? Can the poison be cured without taking off her clothes?"
Never did he think that Lan Fuozi was a woman. Even though it hadn"t been fully verified, her figure and curves were virtually all the confirmation he needed.
The Beautiful Silk Tulip said in an amused voice, "You"re not that close to her anyway, so just leave her if you don"t want to save her. In any case, once the toxins reach her brain, even I won"t be able to do anything, and she"ll be destined to remain in a deep slumber until she dies. It"s up to you whether you want to save her."
"Can you take off her clothes instead?" Tang Wulin asked in a gloomy manner.
The Beautiful Silk Tulip replied, "I can"t do that! I"ve already fused as one with my lover, and I"m a man; I can"t betray her by doing something like this!"
Tang Wulin snapped, "I"m a man as well! How did this even happen?" Regardless of how calm and steadfast he normally was, he was still at a complete loss for what to do in this current situation.
Lan Fuozi had proclaimed to him that "he" had found his true love and fallen in love with Gu Yuena at first sight, but it turned out that this guy was a woman! She was either partic.i.p.ating in this event as a prank or her s.e.xual orientation was askew.
In any case, there was a young woman lying before him who had been afflicted by an extremely potent poison. Thankfully, it wasn"t the poison he had been afflicted by last time. Otherwise, things would be even more troublesome.
"Hurry up, Boss," the Beautiful Silk Tulip goaded in a teasing voice.
Tang Wulin retorted in an accusatory tone, "You could"ve cured me of the aphrodisiac I drank last time at the Star Luo Empire, couldn"t you?"
"I don"t know, perhaps, maybe, I might"ve been able to do it. But that was a good thing for you, wasn"t it? As soon as I realized what was happening, I shut off my own six senses so as to not invade your privacy," the Beautiful Silk Tulip chuckled.
Tang Wulin"s eyelids twitched upon hearing this. He had always thought that the Beautiful Silk Tulip was the most reliable of his soul spirits, but it seemed that he wasn"t all that reliable after all!
After taking a deep breath, Tang Wulin closed his eyes before releasing his spiritual power, He was purely using his spiritual power to detect Lan Fuozi"s location, and he hurriedly made his way toward her before stripping off her clothes, making sure to minimize the contact between them. However, some physical contact was naturally inevitable when taking off her innermost pieces of clothing. Her skin was delicate and smooth, and she was indeed giving off a fragrant aroma. Even though his eyes were closed, he couldn"t cut off his own senses of touch and smell!
Tang Wulin could only chant Gu Yuena"s name over and over again in his heart. He had been able to resist Dai Yun"er to a certain extent even under the influence of the aphrodisiac wine, so he definitely possessed sufficient willpower. Even so, this was still very awkward!
Finally, all Lan Fuozi"s clothes were stripped away, and Tang Wulin was drenched in sweat. With his current physical const.i.tution, it was virtually impossible for him to sweat, but that was precisely what was happening.
"Hurry up!"
"You got it!" The Beautiful Silk Tulip didn"t delay any further on this occasion. A large purple flower appeared behind Tang Wulin, and faint pink light shone down upon Lan Fuozi.
The Beautiful Silk Tulip boasted the ability to be able to keep out and cure poisons, and under the nourishment of its aura, a series of fine red water droplets quickly appeared on the surface of Lan Fuozi"s skin alongside a sweet and fragrant aroma.
"Wow, she really did take in a lot of these toxins! Her physical const.i.tution is truly exceptional; her body instinctively protected her own organs so that the Nightmare Toxins weren"t able to enter her brain. Otherwise, if her mind had been corrupted, then there would be nothing I can do," the Beautiful Silk Tulip a.n.a.lyzed as he administered treatment.
Tang Wulin urged, "Can you hurry up and stop rambling? We have to get her clothes back on after you"re done."
The Beautiful Silk Tulip was silent for a moment before asking, "Do you remember how this strapping was tied around her chest? I feel like you most likely won"t remember anymore."
"..."
Tang Wulin"s eyelids began to twitch again. Why did women have to wear so many different items of clothing?
Indeed, he had completely forgotten how the strapping had been tied around her chest. Removing it had been quite troublesome, and he was trying his best not to come into contact with her body, so he didn"t make an effort to remember how the strapping had been tied.
"Hurry up and focus on curing the poison!"
"Almost done now. Most of the toxins have already been expelled, and they"ll naturally evaporate in the air in around two minutes. Don"t worry about inhaling some of the toxins; I"ll make sure you don"t get poisoned."
Tang Wulin was quite relieved to hear this. At the very least, he wouldn"t have to rub down her body or something like that; that would be even more awkward. As for the strapping, he would just have to do his best. In any case, it didn"t really matter whether he tied it correctly or not.
After putting on her clothes for her, he would immediately run away and survey the area with his spiritual power to ensure her safety. She wouldn"t know that he was the one who had saved her, and the awkwardness could be avoided.
