Shi Tianle held the pills in his hand and approached Elder Huang.

He could tell from the smell that this elixir was extraordinary.

If Xu Yuan hadn't told him that this was a case of fighting poison with poison, and that a normal person would die immediately from the poison if they ate it, he would have wanted to lick it too.

Huang Yiyi, Qin Lao, and the other members of the Huang family stared longingly at the pills in Shi Tianle's hand, then at Huang Lao.

Huang Yiyi swallowed hard, unsure whether it was from nervousness or craving.

"Is this really edible?"

She murmured something to herself, and when she saw her grandfather pick up the pill and put it in his mouth, Huang Yiyi quickly stopped him.

"Grandpa, how about we try it on a small animal first?"

She personally caught the five poisonous creatures, including the venomous snakes, and even watched Xu Yuan put those ghostly things into the alchemy cauldron to refine them.

Now that my grandfather is eating these things, what if something happens to him?

When it comes to life and safety, this is no joke.

He only has one grandfather, and he can't come back to life.

Old Qin stood to the side, his fists clenched tightly, equally nervous.

Old Huang looked at their nervous expressions and smiled slightly. Finally, he looked at Xu Yuan, who was sitting on the stool with a calm expression.

He seemed not to hear Huang Yiyi's words and continued drinking his tea.

"I believe everything will be alright."

Old Huang chuckled, took the pill and stuffed it into his mouth, displaying a do-or-die attitude.

As soon as the pill entered his mouth, Huang Yiyi, Elder Qin, and the others kept their eyes glued to Elder Huang, waiting for his reaction.

Old Huang could feel the bitterness of the pill upon entering his mouth. After entering his body, the pill instantly decomposed, and a burning sensation surged up from his abdomen. He felt as if a ball of fire was about to burst out of his throat.

In the blink of an eye, his whole body turned bright red, as if a furnace had been lit inside him, his skin and blood vessels were glowing and heating up, and his hair stood on end.

Xu Yuan glanced at him calmly and said, "Spit it out, no need to hold it in."

puff…

Before he could finish speaking, Old Monster Huang spat out a large mouthful of blood.

"grandfather…"

"Old Qin..."

Huang Yiyi, Qin Lao, and Shi Tianle nervously stepped forward to check the situation.

Old Huang's vomiting of blood hadn't stopped; large mouthfuls of black blood were gushing out as if it were free.

The intense burning sensation in his lower abdomen made him unable to speak; his whole body trembled, and cold sweat poured down his forehead.

Despite his best efforts to suppress it, he still groaned in pain.

Seeing her grandfather's pained expression, Huang Yiyi paced anxiously in circles.

She suddenly looked up at Xu Yuan, who was leisurely drinking tea.

"What exactly did you do to my grandfather?"

Xu Yuan didn't even raise his head, not wanting to talk to this stupid woman, his eyes fixed on Old Huang who was vomiting blood.

Seeing that it was about time, he slowly got up, holding three teacups in his hand, and walked to Old Huang's side.

He casually lifted Old Huang's clothes, and the teacup in his hand flew out like a cupping jar, sticking to three spots on Old Huang's front, back, and forehead.

Under Shi Tianle's questioning gaze, Xu Yuan's sword finger moved across the acupoints on Huang Lao's body, and purplish-black marks appeared where Xu Yuan's finger had passed.

Although they couldn't understand the act of making a wish, they could roughly guess that it might be a detoxification process.

Sure enough, when the black blood in Old Huang's mouth turned red, Xu Yuan stopped what he was doing.

Take the teacup off Old Huang's body; there is a faint brown liquid clinging to the cup's surface.

Xu Yuan casually smashed three water cups before looking at Old Huang, who was breathing heavily.

Old Huang lay weakly on the stool, breathing heavily, his complexion gradually regaining its rosy hue.

"It seems there are no problems."

Xu Yuan muttered something to himself, took Huang Lao's pulse again, put down Huang Lao's wrist, and a smile appeared on Xu Yuan's lips.

"alright?"

Shi Tianle was half-believing and half-doubting. He looked at Xu Yuan, who had sat back down on the stool, and reached out to take her pulse.

Upon noticing the changes within Elder Huang's body, Shi Tianle stared in astonishment.

"How is that possible?"

No, that's not what I meant.

He quickly looked at Xu Yuan: "How did you do that?"

Xu Yuan took a leisurely sip of tea: "That's how it is. Didn't you see it just now?"

"Amazing, absolutely amazing!" Shi Tianle had been practicing medicine for decades and had never imagined such a procedure could be performed.

Even if he were given a solution, he might not be able to cure Old Huang.

He certainly wouldn't dare use the five poisonous creatures in medicine.

"Mr. Shi, how is my grandfather?" Huang Yiyi asked anxiously.

Shi Tianle turned around and smiled like a chrysanthemum.

"Don't worry, Old Huang is fine now."

After a period of rest, you'll be back to normal.

"Really?" Huang Yiyi's eyes lit up.

She didn't completely believe what Xu Yuan said, but she absolutely believed what Shi Tianle said.

"Grandpa is really better."

Huang Yiyi hugged Huang Lao's neck and burst into tears.

No one else knows how worried she was ever since her grandfather fell ill.

I usually can't sleep at night because I'm always thinking about how to cure my grandfather's illness.

Xu Yuan stood up and glanced at the weak Old Huang: "Rest first, I'll come see you again later."

He left without saying a word, ignoring everything else.

Back at the hotel, Wang Ba and Chen Xiaofang looked at Xu Yuan with worried expressions and came up to ask what had happened.

They were genuinely afraid that something might happen to Xu Yuan at the Huang family's residence.

"Nothing's wrong, all done."

Xu Yuan waved goodbye and went back to her room. She took a shower, changed her clothes, and fell asleep.

When he woke up again, it was Rose who brought him food.

"Aren't you tired of running this way?" Xu Yuan looked at Rose in her purple dress until Rose felt embarrassed and then looked away.

"It's no trouble at all," Rose said softly.

"She just wanted to see Xu Yuan more often."

That evening, at the Huang family's house.

Old Huang slowly awoke, immediately feeling his teleportation power return to its previous level.

Looking around, he saw Huang Yiyi asleep on the table, and a relieved smile appeared on his lips.

"Looks like the King of Hell won't take this old man."

"This little guy is actually quite something."

The door opened, and Old Qin, who had been waiting outside, came in upon hearing the sound.

"Mr. Huang, how are you feeling?"

"I feel like I've become twenty years younger. If I could, I could even have a baby."

Old Huang, looking smug, glanced around and asked, "Where's the wish?"

"Mr. Xu has returned to the hotel."

He must be tired and needs to go back and rest.

Old Huang nodded: "This kid looks so calm and collected, he must have expended a lot of energy."

"Go and pick out some good things and send them to him."

Send someone else over to provide covert protection.

"We've already sent someone."

Old Huang nodded in satisfaction, then suddenly seemed to remember something.

"Shouldn't the Weilong team have arrived by now?"

"They have arrived. In addition to them, the three feng shui masters you invited have also arrived and are all accommodated at the hotel."

A subordinate reported that the building along the Huangpu River was being constructed at a faster pace.

They want to top it out in three days.

"Three days later, it will be an inauspicious day, when the evil energy will be at its strongest."

Once completed, its malevolent energy will sweep towards the Huangpu River, and it will be even more difficult to stop it then.

Old Huang nodded as he listened: "Tell them I'll go see them tomorrow and we must come up with a solution."

"Oh, right, tell Xu Yuan to join too."
