Junior Sister is too competitive, she drastically alters the Joyful Union Sect.

Chapter 124 Xiao Ke's Demonic Act
As soon as Elder Shen spoke a few words, the veins on the neck of the Duanmu family head bulged, and his eyes looked like he wanted to devour someone.

Elder Shen the Second was not afraid.

The young master of the Duanmu family is still lying in bed!
Given the attitude of Venerable Lin of Lingxiao Sect, it would be good enough if he didn't provoke the Duanmu family head to death; saving lives and treating patients is basically impossible!
In that case, the head of the Duanmu family must seek help from the Yue family's healer.

Unfortunately, the head of the Duanmu family had lost his temper and angered Madam Yue!

Given the current situation, if the Duanmu family head wants to save his young master, he has no choice but to endure it!

Zhang Youli pushed open the slightly ajar door and walked in.

As he arrived, the tense atmosphere in the room eased slightly.

"Elder Helian examined Young Master Duanmu, and the situation is the same as Shen Qiuluo's." Zhang Youli spoke authoritatively, his stern and serious demeanor quite intimidating. "Judging from the images in the recording stone, Young Master Duanmu was distracted while fighting the mother insect. Patriarch Duanmu, this is a grave taboo."

Zhang Youli's words made the Duanmu family head's expression even more unpleasant.

"Sect Leader Zhang, may I take a look at the recording stone?" Patriarch Duanmu asked in a deep voice.

Zhang Youli did not refuse, but said, "Right now, the situation of Young Master Duanmu is probably more important."

Standing to the side, Lin Jinran spoke without any politeness, "Sect Leader Zhang knows that I came here to watch the show. That kid Yin Zhongyu is still waiting for me to teach him alchemy, I don't have time."

As soon as she finished speaking, Lin Jinran gave a perfunctory bow and turned to leave, not giving the Duanmu family head a chance to speak at all.

Seeing the gaze of the Duanmu family head, Elder Yue spoke in his usual slow and leisurely tone, "I only came here to deliver something to Youqing. Now that Youqing has left, I will return later."

Judging from the attitude of the Duanmu family head...

Shi Hao wasn't a child; she knew her limits. At most, she would make the Duanmu family head look bad and ask for an exorbitant amount.

Yue Shihao nodded slightly to Elder Yue.

Elder Yue nodded to Zhang Youli and left.

Lin Jinran and Elder Yue left one after the other, leaving only the healer, Yue Shihao, in the room.

Zhang Youli was overwhelmed by the thought of the relationship between Shen Qiuluo and Shen Youqing.

Shen Linren was also numb.

The head of the Duanmu family glanced at the unconscious Duanmu Jingyun and could only shamelessly beg Yue Shihao, "Madam Yue..."

“Patriarch Duanmu should know that I am not a compassionate person.” Yue Shihao’s cold voice interrupted Patriarch Duanmu. “Patriarch Duanmu, you should know what the consequences will be after your previous provocation.”

After rebuking the head of the Duanmu family, Yue Shihao turned to Zhang Youli and said, "Sect Leader Zhang, there is no need to say more. There is a saying that life and death are predestined and wealth and honor are determined by fate. Sect Leader Zhang, do not force things."

Zhang Youli: ...

After rebuking Zhang Youli, Yue Shihao looked at Shen Lin with a cold gaze, "Patriarch Shen, don't force me to beat you up."

In short, Shen Lin became obedient.

"Is this poison really that troublesome?" Duanmu Rong suddenly asked, her arms crossed. "Does the Qingyu Sect not have a single elder capable of handling this?"

Before Zhang Youli could answer, Yue Shihao said to her, "It's probably a powerful elder in seclusion."

The Azure Jade Sect is a sacred place for alchemists, but physicians only make up one-third of the alchemists, because physicians require more talent than alchemists.

In the entire cultivation world, there are very few outstanding physicians.

“The origin of the mother worm is unknown, but she is very powerful. Her ghostly aura and poison are mixed together, making her quite troublesome,” Zhang Youli said.

Duanmu Rong pondered for a moment, "Sect Leader Zhang, could you take me to see Shen Qiuluo?"

Zhang Youli nodded, then raised his hand in invitation.

Shen Lin did not breathe a sigh of relief upon seeing this.

Duanmu Rong went to investigate purely out of interest, not because he wanted to save anyone.

Given Duanmu Rong's temperament, even if she could actually develop an antidote, she wouldn't save her.

"Madam Yue!" The head of the Duanmu family bowed deeply to Yue Shihao, his posture extremely humble. "If Madam Yue is willing to help save my son, I will offer ten top-grade wood-elemental spirit stones, plus three Ghostly Light Orchids!"

Yue Shi remained unmoved. This paltry sum—was it meant to appease a beggar?
Elder Shen glanced at his patriarch and gestured for Shen Lin to follow suit.

Shen Lin gave Elder Shen the Second a wry smile.

Young Master Duanmu is different from Qiu Luo. Even if he offered up the entire Shen family, Shi Hao would not save Qiu Luo.

Seeing Yue Shihao's expression, the Duanmu family head could only grit his teeth and continue to raise the stakes, "One seventh-grade Jade Dew Flower."

"Plus a Crimson Flame Sword and 100,000 spirit stones," Yue Shihao's cold voice rang out.

Seeing the Duanmu family head's barely concealed expression, she scoffed, "Isn't Young Master Duanmu's life worth this much?"

What could the head of the Duanmu family do? He could only grit his teeth and agree.

Yue Shihao walked to the bedside and flicked out a burst of spiritual energy to check on Duanmu Jingyun's condition.

Having determined how many more days Duanmu Jingyun could hold on, Yue Shihao said coldly, "Wait for Jinjin to come back and let her come to save her."

How could she not understand Arong?

I reckon this really was a joint effort by Arong and Jinjin.

Since that's the case, let Duanmu Jingyun suffer for a few more days. We can also take this opportunity to let Jinjin learn how to detoxify and dispel poison.

"Lady Yue!" Patriarch Duanmu cried out anxiously, "You clearly promised..."

"Did I say I wouldn't save him?" Yue Shihao interrupted, a hint of impatience appearing on her usually cool and elegant brows. "If Patriarch Duanmu doesn't trust my son, then we should find someone else more capable."

The head of the Duanmu family had finally managed to get Yue Shihao to relent, so how could he dare to turn against her again? He could only say, "I trust you, I trust you! Please forgive me, Madam Yue. I'm just too worried about my son's safety. I wonder when Miss Shen will be able to return?"

"Three to five days," Yue Shihao said before leaving.

The Duanmu family head's face turned completely gloomy.

Shen Lin looked at the Duanmu family head and couldn't tell for a moment whether the two of them were in a worse situation.

but……

"Patriarch Duanmu, let's settle this score too." Shen Lin was determined not to let Patriarch Duanmu get away with it. "You've slandered my Shen family without any evidence. How does Patriarch Duanmu intend to resolve this matter?"

……

Shen Youqing was unaware of the exciting events unfolding in Qianyu City.

The seven of them have successfully located the team that needs support.

Seeing that the group of seven was fighting against the Nascent Soul stage spirit beast, Jiang Chenying and his fellow disciples went to help without saying a word.

Shen Youqing cast a healing array on them and then retreated.

She couldn't withstand the oppressive aura of a Nascent Soul stage spirit beast!
To avoid Shen Youqing being ambushed, Xiao Youqi did not go up; he retreated with Shen Youqing.

The seven people, who were in the midst of a fierce battle, suddenly felt their spiritual energy rapidly recovering, and all their minor injuries, pains, and fatigue disappeared.

With Jiang Chenying and his group of five joining them, the group quickly killed the Nascent Soul stage spirit beast.

After the battle ended, Jiang Xuan'an and his seven companions looked at Jiang Chenying's group with some surprise.

Jiang Chenying took the initiative to speak, "Our mission has been completed, and we came to provide support after receiving our master's permission."

“Our mission is a bit tricky…” Mu Feibai didn’t stand on ceremony with Jiang Chenying and the others. He started by talking about the clues and progress they had.

Xiao Ke noticed Shen Youqing the moment she arrived, but he was busy fighting with the spirit beast and couldn't be distracted.

But now...

He glanced at the wound on his arm that had been accidentally scratched by the spirit beast, and an idea came to him.

"Cough cough..." Xiao Ke coughed twice, as if trying to cover up his discomfort, his fair face showing signs of fatigue and fragility.

A moment later, the fragrance of camellias filled my nostrils.
