152: Chapter 152 Cold Poison
"Don't even think about those crooked ideas of yours."
Master Yun Hua said coldly.
She didn't even bother to respond to Hu Liner's words; this fellow just loved to launch verbal attacks.
"Oh, you. I'm just trying to find a good Dao Companion for your Disciple, and it would also make our relationship even closer."
Hu Liner said with a serious expression.
"There is no need for that."
Master Yun Hua looked indifferent.
She didn't want her relationship with Hu Liner to be any closer; the current state was enough.
"You, as a Revered Master, don't understand at all. You should understand me, right, Lin Ming?"
Hu Liner then looked at Lin Ming, her voice tinged with a hint of charm as she spoke.
"I'm sorry, Senior. I'm not interested in things like Dao Companions."
Lin Ming continued to shake his head.
Things like charm were useless against him.
Hu Liner was somewhat surprised by this; this Lin Ming, who was only in the Spirit Platform Realm, had actually resisted her Charm Technique.
Was this child's mind truly that steadfast?
Or did he have some kind of Magic Treasure on him that defended against mental and Divine Soul attacks?
In the next second, Hu Liner's figure retreated rapidly, leaving an afterimage in place, but even so, a palm print still fell toward her.
"I just charmed your Disciple for a moment, was that really necessary?"
Hu Liner muttered as she neutralized the palm print.
This woman really was playing for keeps.
"If there's a next time, don't blame me for being impolite."
Master Yun Hua said.
If there were a next time, she wouldn't mind falling out with Hu Liner.
"Understood."
Hu Liner had an indifferent expression.
"She must be Chi Ningshi's daughter."
Hu Liner's gaze shifted from Lin Ming to Yan Nian, and after sizing her up, she spoke.
"Does Senior know my mother?"
Yan Nian immediately asked.
She didn't remember her mother ever mentioning Hu Liner.
"I wouldn't say I know her well, but we've met a few times."
Hu Liner said.
"You don't look like your mother; you look quite a bit like your father."
Hu Liner continued.
"I thought you would just charge straight into the Red Flood Dragon Clan to rescue her."
Hu Liner's gaze returned to Master Yun Hua as she teased.
"My strength is not yet sufficient."
Master Yun Hua said succinctly.
Sure enough, when Lin Ming heard this, he knew his previous guess was correct; his Revered Master really did have the idea of charging into the Red Flood Dragon Clan.
"You're still the same as before, you haven't changed."
Hu Liner's lips twitched slightly, and then she laughed loudly.
Sure enough, this was the Hu Liner she knew.
"You're the same, still a wanton fox."
Master Yun Hua laughed as well.
"Bring me a few stools; don't let my friend and her beloved Disciple keep standing."
Hu Liner said.
"Yes."
Before long, several people were sitting around a stone table.
Hu Miaotong poured tea for each of them.
"Come, it's been a long time since you've had the Bitter Yuan Tea from my Ku Mountain, hasn't it?"
Hu Liner said with a smile.
"Prepare ten or so pounds for me."
Master Yun Hua said.
"I don't even have ten pounds in my own stock, forget it."
Hu Liner shook her head.
"Then give it all to me."
Master Yun Hua said.
"Two pounds at most, no more."
Hu Liner said.
"That'll do."
Master Yun Hua said.
"So, what did you want with me?"
Master Yun Hua asked after taking a sip of the Bitter Spirit Tea.
"Can't I just see my old friend? Does there have to be a reason?"
Hu Liner said, feigning a sorrowful posture.
Master Yun Hua just watched Hu Liner quietly, saying nothing.
"Alright, I indeed have something I need your help with."
Seeing this, Hu Liner stopped hiding it and spoke.
"I want to ask you to help take this child to Yanyun Mountain."
Hu Liner looked at Hu Miaotong.
Then, she reached out and tapped Hu Miaotong's forehead with a finger, and a special purple mark appeared on Hu Miaotong's forehead.
As the mark appeared, a wave of coldness emanated from Hu Miaotong's body.
This extremely strong coldness caused the surrounding temperature to drop several levels instantly, and this chill was not just aimed at the physical body, but also at the Divine Soul.
This situation only lasted for a few seconds before the mark vanished, and the coldness vanished along with it.
cold poison.
A guess immediately formed in Lin Ming's mind.
This so-called coldness was likely a type of poison; Lin Ming sensed an extremely violent erosion within it, and this cold poison was eroding Hu Miaotong's body and even her Divine Soul.
And that mark was a Seal that temporarily suppressed the cold poison.
"This is?"
Master Yun Hua looked at Hu Miaotong, slightly startled.
"You see it, don't you?"
Hu Liner said.
"This cold Qi is eroding her body."
Master Yun Hua stated her judgment.
If she wanted to understand it more precisely, she would need to perform a personal examination.
"Not just the body, but also the Divine Soul."
Hu Liner said.
"cold poison. Right now, I'm using a secret method to temporarily Seal this cold poison, but if it isn't completely removed, this child will be destroyed by it."
Hu Liner said with a worried expression.
Hu Miaotong also showed a slight expression of pain at this moment, but she endured it.
"What kind of cold poison is it? Even you can't remove it?"
Master Yun Hua asked.
"We have already tried many times."
Hu Liner shook her head.
The members of our Purple Spirit Illusion Fox Clan have already tried countless times, and we have even sought help from other Yao Races and some people from the Human Race, but all of them were helpless against this cold poison.
Master Yun Hua stood up and came to Hu Miaotong's side, placing a hand on her shoulder.
Hu Liner understood Master Yun Hua's intention and placed a finger on Hu Miaotong's forehead again; the mark appeared, and the cold Qi leaked out.
Master Yun Hua's Yuan Power then entered Hu Miaotong's body.
At the same time, Lin Ming's attention was also on Hu Miaotong.
As time passed, Master Yun Hua's expression gradually became serious.
But in the end, she still shook her head, withdrew her hand, and returned to her seat.
"Where did this cold poison come from?"
Master Yun Hua asked.
This was the first time Master Yun Hua had seen such a troublesome cold poison.
"It's all because of a traitor from my clan, a traitor who joined the Demonic Path."
Hu Liner said with a cold face.
The Demonic Path isn't something only the Human Race can fall into; similarly, within the Yao Race, there are also Yao Beasts who throw themselves into the Demonic Path, and this type of Yao Beast is known as a Yao Demon.
This type of Yao Demon is not tolerated by the Yao Race; once they appear, they are hunted down by various Yao clans.
Hu Miaotong's parents died at the hands of this Yao Demon, this traitor. Hu Liner arrived just in time to save Hu Miaotong, but even so, this cold poison was left on her.
This is the cold poison that has left the entire Purple Spirit Illusion Fox Clan feeling helpless.
"Are you sure someone at Yanyun Mountain can help her?"
Master Yun Hua asked.
"I have an old friend who might have a way."
