152: Chapter 152 Ye Wudi, Seventh-Rank Life-Returning Pill
"Brother Yun, this is my home..."
Ye Lingxi pushed open the bamboo door and invited Hun Tiandi inside.
In the small courtyard, herbs were planted and very well cared for.
Hun Tiandi could tell at a glance that the herbs Ye Lingxi had been selling earlier were picked right here.
A rich medicinal scent permeated the air. Though the courtyard was small, the three rooms had everything one would need.
"Is that Lingxi back?"
From inside the house, a weak voice seemed to speak, and a thick medicinal smell wafted out.
"Brother, it's me. I've brought Brother Yun to treat your injuries..."
Ye Lingxi entered and said, filled with worry.
On the bed lay a young man of about twenty-four or twenty-five, with a sturdy build, a face as pale as paper, and dull eyes. His whole body radiated an aura of decay.
He was extremely weak, his breathing faint, like a candle in the wind; in the next moment, the candlelight might scatter, and his life would be extinguished.
"This injury..." Hun Tiandi's thoughts stirred, and soul power surged from his sea of consciousness, enveloping the young man on the bed.
Invading his body to investigate, he found meridians shattered, bones cracked, and internal organs broken...
Such severe injuries, bordering on death, yet there seemed to be a trace of vitality inside, hanging onto the last sliver of life.
If he didn't receive effective treatment, the young man's life could not be saved.
"Brother Yun, can my brother's injuries be saved?" Ye Lingxi, standing beside him, asked worriedly, looking at the grave-faced Hun Tiandi.
The siblings relied on each other to survive. To give Ye Lingxi a good life, her brother had not hesitated to work as a dangerous guard, living a life of licking blood off a blade. This time, while transporting supplies for the Liu family, the route was secret, but for some reason, it was leaked, attracting unwanted attention.
After a bloody battle, Ye Lingxi's brother had barely managed to carve out a bloody path to escape.
It was just a pity that the Liu family had only given a few gold coins; there wasn't a single medicinal pill to treat his injuries.
"Liu Ling, take a look at his injuries..." Hun Tiandi turned and said to Liu Ling behind him.
"Yes, Master!" Liu Ling stepped forward, placed his fingers on the young man's wrist, and a wisp of soul power surged out. After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, he suddenly opened his eyes.
"Such heavy injuries..." Liu Ling's expression was solemn. As a Seventh-Rank Alchemist, he naturally saw clearly that the young man's bones, meridians, and organs were all severely damaged.
If not for a powerful vitality holding on, the young man likely wouldn't have lived much longer.
"Master, for this kind of injury, there is no other way besides a Seventh-Rank Life-Returning Pill..." Liu Ling suggested.
"Young Master Yun, you have forgotten that in the alchemy canon, there is a pill called: Spirit-Returning Pill, a Seventh-Rank pill, which has the effect of saving those with severe injuries and restoring life."
At this moment, Elder Dan's voice rang out in his heart, making his eyes light up.
He flipped his hand to take out the alchemy canon, opened it, and found the Seventh-Rank Spirit-Returning Pill, which detailed the required medicinal herbs.
Such as the main ingredient, Heaven-Returning Ice Grass, a seventh-rank wood-attribute magic core...
It was just a pity that while the seventh-rank magic core was easy to handle, where was he supposed to find the rare Heaven-Returning Ice Grass...
Regardless of whether it was the Seventh-Rank Alchemist Liu Ling or Elder Dan taking action, the prerequisite was having the herbs to refine the pill.
Seventh-Rank Spirit-Returning Pill!
While Hun Tiandi was secretly pondering, Liu Changfeng returned to the Liu family, leisurely drinking tea.
"How did things go?"
Liu Ruyan, dressed in palace attire and exuding a charming aura, asked lightly.
Liu Changfeng smiled slightly, light flowing in his eyes, and said confidently: "Sister Ruyan, don't worry, everything is under control."
Liu Ruyan nodded slightly; once successful, the Liu family would take off directly, soaring into the sky like a dragon.
"Young Master, that youth and his group followed Ye Lingxi to General Ye Wudi's house."
An agile servant reported the information to Hun Tiandi.
It turned out that after the conflict at Furong Pavilion, the golden blood ginseng fell into Hun Tiandi's hands, and Liu Changfeng had sent subordinates to follow and investigate their lodging.
"General Ye Wudi? Ye Lingxi?"
Liu Changfeng murmured, having long regarded Ye Lingxi as his own possession, his woman.
In fact, General Ye Wudi did not know that the route for this transport of supplies, which led to him being hunted, was leaked by Liu Changfeng.
The goal was to capture Ye Lingxi.
Just imagine, parents dead early, siblings relying on each other, once the brother died, the stunningly beautiful girl would be helpless. If Liu Changfeng appeared at that time, he would likely achieve his goal.
"Keep watching, report immediately if there is news!"
Liu Changfeng pondered for a moment and gave the order directly; it was not yet the time to act.
"Yes, Young Master." Immediately, the servant ran out to continue tailing them.
"What other plans do you have?" Liu Ruyan asked, puzzled.
Liu Changfeng gave a cold smile and did not explain.
Ye family courtyard.
Hun Tiandi put away the alchemy canon, his soul sank into the storage ring, and he began to search for pills that could heal General Ye Wudi's injuries.
He closed his eyes slightly. The three people beside him had different expressions: Liu Ling and Yan Xing were calm, while Ye Lingxi was anxious.
"Let me do it! Everyone go out!"
Hun Tiandi opened his eyes abruptly and said lightly.
"Brother Yun..." Ye Lingxi said anxiously. Liu Ling spoke up: "Miss Ye, believe in Master, he surely has a way."
Subsequently, the three of them all walked out of the house, leaving only Hun Tiandi inside.
With a flip of his hands, two jade bottles appeared in his palms. He opened them and poured out two pills. The moment the pills appeared, they seemed to have intelligence, sensing danger, and darted toward the outside of the room.
"Hmph, trying to escape?" Hun Tiandi snorted coldly, and soul power surged out, turning into two light shields, enveloping the two Seventh-Rank pills.
"Eh, a Seventh-Rank Life-Returning Pill and a Seventh-Rank Spirit-Returning Pill, interesting!"
"Where did you get these two pills..."
Suddenly, Elder Dan's figure floated out from the purple ring, looking at the two rolling, colliding pills that were trying to escape.
"Heh, a gift from an old friend, their kindness was hard to refuse."
Hun Tiandi smiled.
The Seventh-Rank Life-Returning Pill had the medicinal effect of saving those with severe injuries and restoring vitality. After taking it, as long as it wasn't a decapitation or a shattered heart, anyone below the Dou Zun rank could survive and recover from their injuries.
"Teacher, how should this Life-Returning Pill be used?" Hun Tiandi asked.
"Just have him swallow it directly." Elder Dan said lightly.
Whoosh...
With a flick of his finger, the Seventh-Rank Life-Returning Pill fell into General Ye Wudi's mouth. It melted upon contact, and a medicinal force followed his throat into his abdomen. A warm power spread out, beginning to repair the injuries in his body.
Ah...
After the power of the pill spread, a layer of energy crystal appeared on General Ye Wudi's body, wrapping around him, and soul power surged.
Sensing the injuries in General Ye Wudi's body, they began to gradually heal.
He flipped his hand and put away the Spirit-Returning Pill.
Meridians, bones, and organs were all recovering to their original state at a speed visible to the naked eye under the terrifying medicinal power.
One day and one night later.
Creak. The door of the house was pushed open. Hun Tiandi walked out slowly, and what came into view were the three people, Yan Xing, Liu Ling, and Ye Lingxi, especially Ye Lingxi, who was looking eagerly at the doorway.
"Lingxi..." Immediately, a sturdy young man walked out of the room, his face ruddy, his aura imposing, and his eyes flashing with sharpness.
There was not a trace left of his severely injured, dying state.
"Brother, you're finally better?" Ye Lingxi ran over excitedly and hung onto General Ye Wudi.
"Such a big girl, and you don't even know how to be shy." General Ye Wudi stroked the girl's head dotingly and said gently.
A quarter of an hour later, Ye Lingxi finally managed to get down from General Ye Wudi.
Thump...
"Thank you, Brother Yun, for saving my life. From now on, this life of General Ye Wudi is yours..."
General Ye Wudi stepped forward slowly, looking at the youth drinking spirit wine, and bowed respectfully, as if a golden mountain were collapsing and a jade pillar were falling.
Hun Tiandi stood up and helped General Ye Wudi up.
He smiled and said: "I have already received the reward from your sister, so naturally, I had to take action to save you..."
