Chapter 438 Unexpected Disaster
Yunxi had already developed new suspicions when she was looking through the jade slips containing information about Ye Yuchen and Ye Yirui from Medicine King Valley. She thought that an outstanding disciple like Ye Yuchen, who possessed an "innate Dao body," must be on the list of evil cultivators who wanted to get rid of him as soon as possible.

Ye Yuchen's incident occurred within the last hundred years. Before that, many talented disciples had fallen silently or even been "replaced." Although "The Hive" determined from the information it collected that the person who attacked Ye Yuchen was a member of the Ye family, Yunxi felt that there must be evil cultivators involved.

If she were an evil cultivator, she would incite the clansmen who were dissatisfied with the siblings to take action against them. Even if she failed one day, it would be seen as an internal strife among the clansmen, not involving the evil cultivator, and would not attract much attention. She was very skilled at this trick of sowing discord among evil cultivators.

Because there was no concrete evidence to support her conclusion, Yunxi could not make a judgment and had to put the matter aside until she received a message from Ye Yirui before the Five Domains Grand Competition. She then decided to go to Medicine King Valley after the competition to verify her speculation.

The sudden appearance of Ye Chengbi made Yunxi realize that Ye Yirui's situation in Medicine King Valley was probably not good. Moreover, Ye Chengbi kept asking the Immortal Doctor Sect if they had any secret methods to repair the dantian, which obviously had his own purpose. Therefore, she decided to go and see Ye Yirui after the competition.

An hour later, the array in the alchemy room opened, and Xiang Si Zi and Yun Xi walked out one after the other, drawing everyone's attention to the two of them.

Xiangsi Zi tossed a new pill to Xun Kun and then said:
"Try the newly formulated antidote."

"Yes."

Xun Kun took the medicine bottle and agreed, but his eyes drifted towards Yun Xi.

Yunxi naturally noticed and nodded almost imperceptibly, which instantly put Xunkun's mind at ease. He then flashed into the formation. At this moment, a Kunmo Sect disciple had already collapsed to the ground, his life force rapidly fading, and he was about to perish.

Xun Kun disregarded everything else and went directly to the late Foundation Establishment disciple. He pried open the disciple's mouth, stuffed the pill into it, and then placed his palm on the disciple's back to help him absorb the medicinal properties.

All attention was focused on the disciple, and then they saw that the disciple's life force was being restored. His face, which was originally covered with wrinkles, became smooth again, and his gray hair turned black and shiny once more. A quarter of an hour later, the disciple opened his eyes.

"Xiao Xun'er, how are you feeling now?"

Xun Kun withdrew his palm and asked.

Xiao Xun'er had already sat up straight, looked at her hands, and then said with surprise:

"True Lord, my life has returned."

Her bright eyes couldn't hide her surprise. The next moment, the demonic energy within the formation fluctuated. Xiao Xun'er only had time to say to Xun Kun, "It seems like this disciple is about to break through," before she closed her eyes to absorb the demonic energy within the formation.

Upon seeing this situation, Xun Kun immediately moved Xiao Xun'er out of the formation with a wave of his sleeve, and Xun Yan smoothly took over the task of protecting the formation.

Xiangsi nodded and said to Yunxi beside her:
"It seems your neutralizer is working."

Yunxi replied modestly:
"That's because the senior has refined the corresponding antidote pill. Otherwise, no matter how good Ranxi's neutralizing medicine is, it wouldn't be able to detoxify these disciples."

Venerable Wutong finally smiled, cupped his hands to thank Xiangsi Zi, and also thanked Yun Xi. Yun Xi was very good at interpersonal relationships and attributed all the credit to Venerable Xiangsi Zi, which instantly eased the atmosphere at the Kunmo Sect's residence.

Xiang Si Zi tossed the newly adjusted antidote prescription to Xun Kun, leaving the rest to her.

Yunxi gave Xunkun a jade box containing powder she had just collected from Feixia's butterfly wings. Feixia was very unhappy, thinking that her butterfly wings were no longer pretty after the powder decreased.

Yunxi reassured her with a telepathic message:

"After you return to your space, go to the plantation and pick out a spiritual plant to nourish yourself and try to make yourself even more beautiful."

Having received Yunxi's promise, Feixia happily returned to her space.

After completing their mission, Xiang Si Zi and Yun Xi left the Kunmo Sect's base with Hao Qing. Ye Cheng Bi's eyes flickered, and he eventually left the Hua Xian Sect as well.

The next day, Yunxi received news that the Immortal Transformation Sect had refined an antidote pill based on the formula given by Xiangsizi, and the Kunmo Sect cultivators who had been poisoned that day had all recovered. The Foundation Establishment stage competition proceeded as scheduled on the second day, but news of the Kunmo Sect disciples being poisoned still spread among the cultivators of the Five Domains. The participating disciples discussed it animatedly, but the leaders of the Five Domains remained unusually calm, making no comment, as if it were nothing out of the ordinary.

On the fourth day of the competition, Xun Kun visited Yun Xi again, this time to deliver spirit stones to her.

Yunxi didn't stand on ceremony, and after accepting the spirit stones, she asked:

"How are those disciples recovering?"

"Senior Xiangsizi's antidote pill was very effective. The problem is no longer serious and will not affect the subsequent cultivation. Some disciples have even benefited from the misfortune and made breakthroughs in their cultivation."

Yunxi nodded after listening and continued to ask:

"Has the person who poisoned those disciples a second time been identified?"

Upon hearing this, Xun Kun's aura seemed to drop, and he said in a cold, deep voice:

"It's Ye Chengbi from Medicine King Valley."

Upon hearing this name, Yunxi showed no surprise whatsoever, and sneered:

"It really is him. Who found out?"

Xun Kun explained:
"The Venerable Wutong recalled what happened inside the formation and discovered that Ye Chengbi had used the opportunity of checking on the poisoned disciples to poison them a second time."

"How do you plan to handle this matter?"

"The Grand Competition is underway now. Kunmo Sect does not want to be used by those with ulterior motives, so it does not intend to seek revenge against Ye Chengbi for the time being. After the Grand Competition, Kunmo Sect will go to Medicine King Valley to demand an explanation."

After thinking for a moment, Yunxi reminded her:
"Although I don't know what role Ye Chengbi played in this, I always felt that he had some connection with the evil cultivators. Otherwise, he wouldn't have chosen that day to visit me so coincidentally, nor would he have had such a suitable excuse to go to the Kunmo Sect's headquarters."

Xun Kun echoed in a deep voice:
"I have the same speculation. He was the one who pointed out that the poison inflicted on the Kunmo Sect disciples originated from the Medical Immortal Sect."

Xun Kun suddenly stopped speaking, looked up at Yun Xi, and then changed his words to:

"Ye Chengbi came here for you."

Yunxi gave a "you just realized that?" look and calmly said:

"Yes! They came for me, but Jin Can did something stupid and was taken advantage of."

Therefore, you'd better keep a closer eye on those disciples who have been poisoned. The deaths of the Kunmo Sect disciples are the best evidence that these evil cultivators want to frame me.

Xun Kun took a deep breath and said:
"Thank you for reminding."

After saying that, he flashed back to the Kunmo Sect's headquarters.

Xun Kun felt his desire to kill Jin Can had increased even more.

That night, the Kunmo Sect's headquarters in the Southern Region was shrouded in black demonic energy for an entire night, alarming not only the powerful figures from various regions on nearby guest peaks, but also the high-level cultivators of the Immortal Transformation Sect.

Yunxi hugged Congshan and watched the commotion from mid-air all night.
