Chapter 366: Detoxification
Upon hearing this, Moka immediately took out the silver needles and handed them to Audrey nervously and expectantly. Audrey inserted the silver needles into the Valley Master’s body one by one. Every part of the needles was vital, and the slightest carelessness could endanger one’s life.
This also made everyone present extremely nervous.
In a corner, Elder Yuan saw Audrey’s actions, and a hint of viciousness flashed across his wrinkled eyes. He quickly stepped forward and grabbed Audrey’s wrist, wanting to stop her.
“These are all vital points. You’re clearly trying to harm the Valley Master!” He berated her sternly.
Audrey’s expression suddenly changed. Although Elder Yuan was holding her wrist, seemingly wanting to stop her, in reality, a moment of carelessness could cause her to stab the wrong spot and endanger the Valley Master’s life.
“Elder Yuan, if you stop her like this, you’ll have to take responsibility if anything happens,” Audrey reminded him coldly. The energy in her body surged, and Elder Yuan was unable to move her at all.
Seeing that Elder Yuan was slightly stunned, Audrey exerted her strength and pushed him out.
The remaining silver needles were also inserted into her acupuncture points one by one.
“Help me help him up.” Audrey looked at Moka again. In this place, only Moka was trustworthy.
Moka hurriedly went forward and helped him up according to Audrey’s instructions.
Audrey nodded. The corners of her mouth curling into a faint smile. She went straight to the back of the Valley Master and extended her palm. Her energy quickly wrapped around her palm. Audrey’s eyes turned cold as she swung her palm, striking the back of the Valley Master.
Black blood immediately emerged from the acupuncture points that had been inserted into the silver needles. The body of the Valley Master was emitting the stench of black blood.
Some of the more timid ones covered their eyes, but Audrey’s expression remained unchanged. It was only after she had cleared the toxins that had acc.u.mulated on the Valley Master’s body that she stopped and pulled out all the silver needles.
“Wipe the Valley Master’s body.” Audrey gave the remaining hot spring water to Moka and said indifferently as she left the bedside.
Moka took it in a daze and did as Audrey requested.
“The poison is cured just like that?” The Elders beside her did not quite understand what Audrey was doing as they asked in confusion.
Audrey nodded. “The poison is cured. I believe the Valley Master will wake up soon.”
Everyone present heaved a sigh of relief when they heard this. Only Elder Yuan’s face darkened slightly as a hint of panic flashed in his eyes.
Others might not have noticed it, but Audrey, who had been carefully observing Elder Yuan, saw it clearly. This made her even more certain that Elder Yuan was the one who had poisoned him.
She did not expect that the Herb King Valley would have such a dispute, but Audrey did not have the heart to ask too much.
Not long after, the Valley Master woke up. He had been sleeping for more than half a year, and he was not used to the sudden awakening.
“Valley Master, you are awake.” Moka immediately revealed a pleasantly surprised expression and said excitedly, “Great, you are finally awake. You have been drowsy and sleeping for the past half a year, and we have been worried sick.”
“It’s alright.” The Valley Master replied in a low voice. Perhaps it was because he had not spoken for too long, and he was a little awkward.
At this moment, two disciples who were brewing medicine also came in with the soup. When they saw that the Valley Master had already woken up, they were so moved that tears immediately fell. “Valley Master, you are finally awake. In the future, we don’t need to brew medicine for you anymore.”
“You say that like you don’t like it.” Upon hearing this, Moka chuckled and teased.
The Valley Master’s awakening seemed to have brought harmony to the entire room. Audrey also felt the joyous and harmonious atmosphere of the Herb King Valley.
“Of course not. What we mean is that we don’t wish for the Valley Master to fall ill again.” The two disciples explained with a chuckle as they handed over the last bowl of soup and medicine.
After drinking the soup and medicine, the Valley Master’s complexion clearly became better.
“All of you have worked hard for the past half a year. In order to cure my illness, you must have thought of many ways.”
The Valley Master looked at everyone with kind eyes. As he said this, his sharp eyes immediately noticed Audrey, who was dressed in external clothing. He frowned and asked, “Who is this lady?”
“Valley Master, she is the one who saved you, Audrey,” Moka hurriedly introduced.
Audrey also walked forward. She could tell that the Valley Master was a kind person, so she was willing to deal with him.
“h.e.l.lo, Valley Master. I am Audrey. It’s my first time coming to the Herb King Valley. Sorry for the offense,” Audrey said humbly. In order to leave a good impression on the Valley Master, she was polite so that it would be easier for her to take the Sky Demon Herb later.
“You’re too kind. You saved me. I should thank you.” The Valley Master chuckled.
“Then, I wonder if Valley Master can have a few words with me alone?” Audrey nodded. A thoughtful look flashed across her eyes as she spoke meaningfully.
Hearing this, the Valley Master could not help but be stunned, but he still agreed.
The other disciples all left in an orderly manner. Only Elder Yuan looked reluctant to part with them, causing Audrey to be displeased. Her tone darkened a little as she said, “Elder Yuan, do you want to listen to it together?”
For some reason, although she was just a girl, her words had an inexplicable sense of intimidation. Elder Yuan’s nerves tensed up, and he shook his head as he walked out.
“Moka should stay too.” Seeing that Moka was about to leave, Audrey said so. After all, Moka knew the matter she wanted to talk about the most clearly. With him around, perhaps it would be easier to communicate with the Valley Master.
The room became quiet all of a sudden, and Audrey’s voice became softer.
