42: Chapter 42 The Effects of the Blood Demon Pill
"A dignified Patriarch of the Wang family has fallen to such a state..." Looking at Wang Yang, who was wailing incessantly, Pei Tianlin no longer felt the initial excitement; instead, he felt a false sense of empathy, like a fox mourning a rabbit.
But soon, his gaze became firm again.
With the Old Ancestor around, their Pei Clan would surely become stronger and more prosperous.
After leaving the small hut, Pei Qingyun went straight to the Evil Suppression Bureau.
Perhaps because they had fought side-by-side, the communication between the two no longer had the same sense of distance as before.
At the height of their cheerful conversation, they even began calling each other brothers.
After a brief exchange, Pei Qingyun stated his purpose for coming.
"Brother Pei, you've come at just the right time. As soon as I returned last night, I ordered the Blood Demon Sect files to be brought over. After a night of research, I found that there are many similar records in the files regarding Wang Yang's situation," Chen Yuanba said with a smile.
"In other words, this is indeed Ling Ziwen's handiwork. At first, I wondered how Wang Yang could have suddenly collapsed," Pei Qingyun said.
"It is indeed Ling Ziwen's handiwork, but he doesn't have that much ability himself. If I'm not mistaken, Wang Yang must have taken a blood demon pill under Ling Ziwen's deception," Chen Yuanba explained.
"blood demon pill." Pei Qingyun thought back carefully, but he realized that there was no information about such a Medicinal Pill in his memory.
Thus, he looked at Chen Yuanba in confusion.
It was also at this moment that Chen Yuanba's smile vanished, replaced by a serious expression.
"The blood demon pill is an extremely evil Medicinal Pill. Once it enters the human body, it quickly sucks away the person's blood Qi. Generally speaking, any Martial Artist who takes it will not live past five days."
"So powerful." Pei Qingyun was somewhat surprised, but when he thought of Wang Yang's condition, he understood.
But from another perspective, Pei Qingyun also realized the danger of the blood demon pill and immediately asked, "If one is afflicted by the blood demon pill, is there a way to solve it?"
"There is, but the method is very difficult. It requires a Six Viscera Grandmaster to take action and be assisted by a medicine called hemolytic herb for treatment. But even so, the person afflicted by the blood demon pill will surely suffer a great loss to their Origin Qi. However, Brother Pei, there's no need to worry too much. This evil medicine is extremely rare. It's a stroke of immense luck that Ling Ziwen could obtain even one," Chen Yuanba thought for a moment and explained without much hesitation.
Hearing this, Pei Qingyun gained a new understanding of the dangers of the blood demon pill.
hemolytic herb was not considered very expensive, but it was extremely rare. However, if the Pei family wanted to obtain it, it wouldn't be a problem.
But asking a Six Viscera Grandmaster to take action was as difficult as reaching the heavens.
However, Pei Qingyun was not in a hurry. After all, the one afflicted by the blood demon pill was Wang Yang, not someone from his Pei family.
He intended to kill Wang Yang anyway, so it was naturally impossible for him to save him.
Additionally, considering the rarity of the blood demon pill, Ling Ziwen might not have another one. But Pei Qingyun still prepared for any eventuality; once he returned, he would immediately order the Pei family members to collect hemolytic herb.
Only, Pei Qingyun still had a doubt in his heart: why did Ling Ziwen do this?
Logically speaking, the two were in a cooperative relationship. Even if they had a falling out and Ling Ziwen wanted Wang Yang dead, there was no need to waste a blood demon pill. With his strength, he could have achieved a clean kill.
But if it was to control Wang Yang, that also seemed unreasonable.
As if seeing the doubt in Pei Qingyun's heart, Chen Yuanba continued, "In fact, the reason the blood demon pill is called an extremely evil Medicinal Pill is not because of its ability to devour a Martial Artist's blood Qi. If it were only that, it would at most be considered a poison. The main function of the blood demon pill is after it has finished devouring the Martial Artist's blood Qi. Members of the Blood Demon Sect can refine the blood demon pill through the Blood Demon Arts to plunder that blood Qi."
"Furthermore, the blood Qi refined this way is relatively pure and has fewer side effects. It's not like other Evil Path Cultivation Techniques, where the plundered blood Qi is quite mixed."
"So that's how it is." Pei Qingyun suddenly understood.
Everything was Ling Ziwen's calculation.
From beginning to end, Ling Ziwen never intended to cooperate with Wang Yang. In his eyes, Wang Yang was just a source of blood food. If it hadn't been for Pei Qingyun hiding his strength and disrupting Ling Ziwen's plan...
Otherwise, by the time Chen Yuanba truly discovered it, it would likely have been beyond saving.
Next, Pei Qingyun learned some more information about the Blood Demon Sect from Chen Yuanba.
After returning from the Evil Suppression Bureau, Pei Qingyun went to the small hut again.
Seeing Pei Qingyun return, Pei Tianlin asked about the situation.
Pei Qingyun did not explain much; matters regarding the blood demon pill and the Blood Demon Sect were not something the Pei family could handle for the time being.
If he said too much, it would be more likely to cause panic.
Walking into the room and seeing Wang Yang's half-dead state, Pei Qingyun decided to execute Wang Yang to avoid further complications.
"Wang Yang, you can be at peace now."
After saying this, Pei Qingyun struck Wang Yang's chest with a palm, and a majestic surge of Qi instantly exploded.
As for why he didn't strike the head, Pei Qingyun didn't want to make it so bloody; the experience of cleaning up brain matter was not pleasant.
After the palm strike, Wang Yang violently spat out a mouthful of black blood, and the aura on his body gradually vanished. But instead, a faint smile appeared on his face.
For Wang Yang, rather than living in such misery, death was a form of happiness.
At this time, Pei Tianlin, who was guarding outside, also heard the movement inside and walked in with curiosity.
Seeing the motionless Wang Yang, the expression on Pei Tianlin's face suddenly froze; he felt that Wang Yang's death was a bit abrupt.
But when he looked at Pei Qingyun and saw his calm and unperturbed face, he understood instantly.
After Pei Tianlin stood quietly for a moment, Pei Qingyun calmly instructed, "Tianlin, you've come at the right time. I have something to entrust to you. This afternoon, you personally go to the Wang family's compound, hand over Wang Yang's body to them, and then return immediately."
"Alright." Pei Tianlin nodded without asking why. However, before leaving, his eyes were still full of doubt.
Pei Tianlin didn't understand why the Old Ancestor wanted to do this, but he had to carry out the Old Ancestor's orders.
After leaving the hut, Pei Qingyun did not rest and quickly gathered the Pei family group to go out and suppress Demons.
In fact, before leaving the Evil Suppression Bureau, Chen Yuanba had already explained to him what had happened at the Demon Source Land.
The reason he encountered a Tier 3 Demon was that something had gone wrong at the Demon Source Land. The Tier 3 Demon that died by his hand was only one of them; several other Tier 3 Demons were still on the loose.
Whether it was for the safety of the Pei family or for the demon spirit pearls left behind after the death of the Tier 3 Demons, he felt it was his duty.
