Chapter 30: Curing Elder Jing



Chapter 30: Curing Elder Jing

“What happened to the respectful junior?” Old Ling shouted toward Yang Wei.

“I respect those who deserved it and so far you haven’t really shown your senior status.” Yang Wei retorted back.

Both of them continued to stare at each other and they were unwilling to back down from their argument.

*Cough*

“Are you two going to continue to argue like children?” Elder Jing from outside couldn’t handle their behavior any longer.

She has been sitting outside for a long time already while thinking their conversation would end soon.

However, her thinking was wrong because not only did the conversation continue, it was getting more heated as time passed.

When Old Ling started talking badly about Yang Wei’s parents, he exploded in anger and broke off his cool, distant feeling.

“I-I’m sorry for my inappropriate behavior,” Yang Wei bowed toward Elder Jing and asked for forgiveness.

Old Ling also gave an apologetic expression but didn’t say anything else since he was many times older than them. It would be a disgrace for him if he had to apologize to the young people for his behavior.

“Cough, we have wasted enough time. Let’s get started in curing little Jing’s poison.” Old Ling said to divert their attention from making him apologize.

Yang Wei didn’t bother arguing with him anymore and returned to his original calm expression.

Taking a deep breath, Yang Wei was ashamed of himself for overreacting whenever there is a mention of his parents.

‘The past is the past and they will not wish for me to linger in sadness from their tragic end.’ Yang Wei said inwardly before releasing his fist.

Elder Jing nodded in approval when she saw Yang Wei calming down and stopped acting irrationally when someone provoked him on purpose.

Since she was the spectator, she was rational to know that Old Ling purposely provoked Yang Wei on purpose to make him lose focus.

In the cultivation world where one mistake is enough to lead to death, Yang Wei would easily die when he decided to confront an impossible enemy if they poke his sore spot.

Elder Jing wanted to thank Old Ling for his effort but he simply waved his hand to tell her to stay silent.

Sending a mental transmission to Elder Jing, Old Ling said, “Don’t let Yang Wei know, it will be best if he figured it out on his own.”

Afterward, Old Ling walked forward before directing Elder Jing to sit in a lotus position.

Elder Jing followed Old Ling’s direction and sat down in an open area.

“This is called Rejuvenating Toxin, a Sky-Grade pill,” Old Ling said as he revealed a darkish purple color pill in his hand.

The pill was dazzling and Yang Wei had an awe expression when he saw the quality.

‘There are barely any impurities in it and should be close to a 96% purity.’ Yang Wei said inwardly while deducting the purity.

Old Ling smiled cheekily as he looked at Yang Wei who admired him from afar. ‘I dare you to say that I don’t deserve being called a senior now.’

Although Yang Wei was still a bit ticked off from his smirking, he still cupped his hand in respect.

“Senior Ling indeed is capable and this junior admits defeat. However, it doesn’t mean that I will give up on improving myself.” Yang Wei said solemnly.

Determination brimmed in his eye since Old Ling’s skill is not impossible to achieve. There are many legends in history so who was to say that legends can not be surpassed.

“Good, I shall await the day you surpass me in alchemy and cultivation.” Old Ling laughs aloud as he strokes his beard.

“I will not disappoint you,” Yang Wei calmly replies while Elder Jing had a complicated emotion.

‘Senior Ling’s word is suspicious.’ Elder Jing pondered about the hidden meaning of his sentence.

There was no reason for Old Ling to say he shall await for the day if he was going to follow them.

Thus, Elder Jing with her sharp mind was able to detect something amiss from this seemingly simple but deep-meaning sentence.

Old Ling knew he couldn’t hide from Elder Jing but he didn’t care. He has been alone for all those years already and having them here was just for a little bit of entertainment.

“Okay, before we begin, there is a side-effect from extracting your poison. Since the poison has been embedded in your body for so long, there will be a slight problem.” Old Ling said while smiling at Yang Wei.

Yang Wei got goosebumps from his creepy smile and wondered what was the meaning of that smile.

“I understand Senior Ling. It’s already a miracle that I’m finally able to get rid of this poison that’s been haunting me.” Elder Jing was resolute in having the disgusting poison off from her body.

An inexplicable excitement can be seen on Elder Jing’s face and Yang Wei could finally rest easy.

Meanwhile, Old Ling smiled inwardly when he imagined the scene after curing Elder Jing’s poison.

‘This is my gift to you, Yang Wei. Learn to worship me later for my effort.’ Old Ling said inwardly as he started poking multiple acupoints in Elder Jing’s back.

“I’m blocking your acupoints so the effect will go toward the infected area.”

Elder Jing nodded slightly in understanding when she felt some path in her inner body was blocked.

The inner body contains many paths for true qi to circulate but the poison is located in specific places.

Therefore, Old Ling blocks the acupoint path where the poison is not found to prevent any waste from the pill’s effect.

After more poking, Old Ling said, “Okay, I’ve blocked everything so it should go smoothly now. Consume the pill while I’ll be on standby in case any mishap occurred.”

Hearing Old Ling’s command, Elder Jing swallows the pill as she closes her eyes in concentration to make sure the poison does not have any remnant in her body.

‘You can do it Elder Jing,’ Yang Wei prayed inwardly for Elder Jing’s successful recovery.

‘Hehe, just wait till the aftermath of her recovery, Yang Wei.’ Old Ling said inwardly as he leers at the unsuspected Yang Wei mischievously.
