62: Jiangshanba Poisoning
In the end, Chen Li and the others were unable to pressure the Jiang Family because the Tower Master and Vice Tower Master of Xuan Yang Tower appeared, so they could only retreat.
At this moment, Jiang Shanba, who had been holding out all this time, spat out a mouthful of black blood and could no longer support himself.
"Grandfather!"
"Father!"
Jiang Ye and his father shouted nervously. Profound Sun Son walked over, performed an inspection, and said, "That old beast! He actually hid poison in his attack."
"What! Poison?" The Jiang Family members were all shocked to learn that Jiang Shanba had been poisoned during that palm strike exchange with Chen Li.
Jiang Ye asked, "Tower Master, is there any way to save my grandfather?"
"This kind of poison is very rare; I'm afraid only that old beast has the antidote. What we need to do now is go to the Pill Pavilion immediately to find Divine Doctor Su to help stabilize the spread of the toxin."
"Alright! We'll head to the Pill Pavilion right now."
Jiang Lingyi immediately tore through space and took Jiang Shanba to the Pill Pavilion. Lin Zhennan, Bai Aotian, Jiang Ye, and a few others went along, while the rest stayed behind to handle the aftermath.
Inside the Pill Pavilion
They found Divine Doctor Su to help, but he could only use golden needles to seal off the flow of the toxin within Jiang Shanba's body; he was unable to neutralize the poison.
Jiang Ye asked nervously, "Divine Doctor Su, what is needed to help him neutralize the poison? Just say the word, and we will get it!"
Divine Doctor Su said, "This poison is very insidious; the victim only realizes they've been poisoned when it takes effect, and its toxicity is extremely potent. Even though I have sealed the toxin to prevent it from spreading further, it had already diffused quite a bit before then. If there is no antidote, he won't last more than three hours."
Jiang Lingyi said very nervously, "What! Divine Doctor Su, please find a way. We can accept whatever price must be paid."
"I will do my best to come up with a countermeasure within these two hours, but the chances of success are not high. You had best find the person who administered the poison and force him to hand over the antidote."
"This..."
"That beast wants him dead; how could he possibly hand over the antidote!" Lin Zhennan said.
Jiang Ye suddenly said, "I will go get the antidote. Wait for me!"
"You child, where can you go to find the antidote?"
"Lingxiao Sect!"
"They are exactly the ones trying to capture you. Aren't you just walking into a trap if you go there?"
Jiang Ye's eyes were firm. "Trust me! They will be the ones walking into a trap. I'll be back within an hour!"
"Wait! What are you planning to do?" Jiang Lingyi asked.
"Father! Don't worry, I'll be back soon!"
"You... Alright! Remember, none of us want anything to happen to you, especially your grandfather; he has placed all his hopes on you."
"Ling Yi, are you crazy? Letting him go to the Lingxiao Sect alone?" Lin Zhennan said.
"Trust him, just like with the Wang Family matter!"
"You... Alright!" Lin Zhennan suddenly thought of something. Could Wang Mang's death really be related to him?
Fifteen minutes later
Jiang Ye appeared before the mountain gate of the Lingxiao Sect wearing a mask. He drew his blade, and the blade's body was instantly covered in a layer of golden flames.
The gate-guarding Disciple asked, "Who are you!"
"Blazing Flames, Heaven-Sunderer!" An extremely powerful Aura erupted from Jiang Ye. He raised the golden flame blade and slashed directly at the center of the mountain gate.
Boom! It almost split the Lingxiao Sect in two, and the huge crack in the middle continued to burn with raging fire.
The Elders of the Lingxiao Sect all rushed out, led by the Sect Master of the Lingxiao Sect, Huang Gui, who said, "Who are you? Why are you wreaking havoc at my Lingxiao Sect?"
Jiang Ye said coldly, "Hand over Chen Li, or I will slaughter everyone in your Lingxiao Sect!"
"What audacity! You dare boast about slaughtering my Lingxiao Sect?" an Elder said.
Pfft! Just as he finished speaking, his head was chopped off, and his body, now in two halves, continued to burn after falling to the ground.
