Douluo Continent: Awakening the Original Martial Soul at the Start.

Chapter 90 Qi and Blood Reach the Limit

"Xue'er, calm down! Li Fei handled the battle against the Soul Saint very calmly. His internal organs were not damaged, and he is not in any danger!" Qianjun Douluo reached out and put his hand on Qian Renxue's shoulder, explaining softly.

"Sixth Grandfather, how did you know that Li Fei handled the Soul Saint so calmly?! Were you there too?!" Qian Renxue instantly grasped the information in Qianjun Douluo's words, her voice icy cold.

"This..." Qianjun Douluo was momentarily at a loss for words, unsure how to respond.

"Sixth Grandfather! ... Since you were there, why didn't you save Li Fei and just let him fight alone?!" Qian Renxue pointed at Qianjun Douluo's chest and questioned him.

Qianjun Douluo took two steps back, looking bewildered and awkward.

"Um! Xue'er, this is my elder brother's order: I'm not allowed to take action unless Li Fei's life is in danger!"

Seeing Qian Renxue's angry gaze, he took two steps back and turned to look at Jiangmo beside him. He found Jiangmo's head resting on his foot, as if something was attracting him. Helpless, he could only force a smile and say, "Moreover, I also had Ju Gui and the other two deal with those who attacked Li Fei. They have already sent me back that everyone has been dealt with!"

Upon hearing this, the goodwill in Qian Renxue's eyes diminished considerably, but she still didn't give Qianjun Douluo a friendly look, saying irritably, "I'll personally inquire with Grandpa later. Fifth Grandpa, do you know about the forces behind those people?!"

"I know!" Qianjun Douluo sighed and continued, "These people are all major forces who want to obtain the secrets of Li Fei's extraordinary combat power in the Soul Master Competition. According to the information we received, the Su family, the Lan family who own the Blue Spirit Sword, and the Ye family near Canghui City are the ones who made the move."

"Fifth Grandfather, wipe out these families! I want to make sure that no one on the continent can mess with Li Fei!" Qian Renxue's tone was filled with killing intent, which made Salas, who was already a Soul Douluo next to her, shudder.

"As expected of the successor of the six-winged angel, at such a young age, the power fluctuations he exudes are already no less than those of an ordinary Soul Saint!" Salas was extremely shocked.

"But Xue'er, shouldn't Li Fei take action himself after he wakes up?!" Qianjun Douluo asked. In his view, this was a test for Li Fei, and if they took action, it would probably hinder Li Fei's growth.

"I don't care about any of that. These three families must be wiped out. If Sixth Grandfather doesn't help, I'll find someone else. I'm sure Third Grandfather and the others would be more than happy to help!" Qian Renxue said in a tone that brooked no refusal.

"Alright, alright, Grandpa will help you, three days! I guarantee that these three families will disappear from this continent in three days!" Qianjun Douluo hurriedly agreed. As the granddaughter of their seven great elders, Qian Renxue was loved by each of them, and he was no exception.

"Thank you, Sixth Grandfather!" Qian Renxue said sweetly.

"Let's go!" Qianjun smiled, and as he passed Jiangmo, he gently patted his shoulder and said with a laugh, "Help me deal with the Su family; they're located in a different direction from the other two families!"

"Alright, I'll help you!" Jiangmo nodded after glancing at Qian Renxue, who was still looking at Li Fei with a worried expression.

"Salas, the safety of Xue'er and Li Fei is in your hands. If even a hair on their heads falls, I'll hold you responsible!"

"Yes!" Salas quickly lowered his head.

After Qianjun and Jiangmo left, Qian Renxue sat blankly by Li Fei's bedside, holding Li Fei's hand, looking at Li Fei's arm with heartache where the white bones were exposed, and tears began to well up in her eyes.

"Bishop, we have stabilized Lord Li Fei's condition, but we have no way to restore the missing muscle and skin in his arm!"

The three healing-type Soul Masters at the Soul Douluo level withdrew their Martial Souls, glanced at Qian Renxue somewhat timidly, and then whispered to Salas.

"Isn't there any other way?!" Before Salas could speak, Qian Renxue's slightly cold voice rang out.

"Unless it's a Title Douluo with healing abilities, it's impossible to regenerate severed limbs. But in all these years, we've never heard of a Title Douluo with healing abilities!" the three said timidly.

"Everyone, go down! I want to be alone with Li Fei for a while!" Qian Renxue said calmly.

Salas and the three men looked at each other, then left the room together, gently closing the door behind them.

"Tap! Tap! Tap!..."

The sound of tears falling continued, and Qian Renxue's eyes slid with tears streaming down her face. She pressed Li Fei's hand to her face and began to complain, "What are you trying to prove?! Look at yourself now!"

"..."

……

Three days passed quickly. The complete annihilation of the three major families overnight shocked the entire Soul Master world. Families with Soul Saints were rare, and each one possessed astonishing strength. The fact that they were all wiped out overnight led everyone to speculate about which force was responsible.

However, all the major powers could guess that apart from the three upper sects and the Spirit Hall, no other power on the entire continent could do this quietly.

However, none of this had much to do with Li Fei. He was conscious at the moment, but he was unable to open his eyes or control his body. He could only sense the subtle changes taking place in his body and was unaware of the external situation.

The body continuously absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the air, transforming it into the five elements of soul power that constantly integrates into all parts of the body, transforming it.

"It's been three days already, and it's still not finished. The true nature of the Martial Soul is indeed infinitely mysterious. But at least I've finally gained some awareness of the outside world!"

Li Fei's consciousness was already able to sense the situation outside. He extended his mental energy and felt that Qian Renxue was asleep by his bedside.

Sensing the fluctuation of spiritual energy, Qian Renxue, who had been asleep, immediately woke up. Looking at Li Fei lying on the bed, she exclaimed in surprise, "Li Fei, is that you?!"

Unable to speak, Li Fei could only use his mental energy to constantly manipulate Qian Renxue's long hair, making it sway to prove that it was him.

"It really is you!" Sensing the spiritual power in her hair, Qian Renxue was overjoyed. She could feel Li Fei's familiar aura through his spiritual power and began to try to communicate with him using her own spiritual power.

Sensing Qian Renxue's spiritual power, Li Fei also began to try. The two spiritual powers began to merge seamlessly, and they could even sense each other's emotional fluctuations.

"Li Fei, what's wrong?!" Qian Renxue's anxious voice rang in Li Fei's mind.

"I'm fine. It's just that this serious injury may have triggered my potential, and my body is undergoing self-remodeling, which may take some time to complete," Li Fei explained.

"Is there anything I can do to help you?!"

"Yes! But only you can take me there personally. No one else can come with me, and no one else can know about it. Otherwise, I'd rather not go!" Li Fei hesitated for a moment, then slowly said.

Given his current physical condition, only an environment like the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well can help him recover; he can't think of any other place.

"There?!" Qian Renxue asked.

Li Fei could sense the unwavering determination in her spirit, and immediately knew that Qian Renxue would not spread the word.

"Sunset Forest! The old monster's medicine garden—the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire—is the only place where I can recover quickly."

"Okay, I'll take you there now!"

Qian Renxue got up, carried Li Fei, who was lying on the bed, on her back, opened the window next to her, circulated her soul power, and soared into the sky, heading towards Sunset Forest.

Upon seeing this, Salas immediately wanted to follow, wanting to ensure Qian Renxue's safety. A holy sword with burning golden flames was thrust in front of him, radiating a holy aura. Then he heard Qian Renxue's cold voice.

"No one is allowed to follow, or they will die!"

Watching Qian Renxue's departing figure, Salas finally stopped. After learning Qian Renxue's identity, he understood that he could not disobey this woman's orders.

The demon-slaying figure appeared from the shadows. After thinking for a moment, he followed, but he only kept a distance and didn't get close, as long as he was sure that Qian Renxue was alright.

"Senior Dugu Bo, this junior, Qian Renxue, requests an audience. Please come out and meet me!" Arriving at the edge of the poison array, and looking at the vicious environment around her, Qian Renxue was certain that she had come to the right place, and then shouted loudly into it.

"What are you doing here?!"

Dugu Bo's voice came from inside, and the next second a green light rushed out from the poison array. He was stunned for a moment, then immediately flashed to Li Fei's side, put his hand on Li Fei's wrist, and began to check Li Fei's injuries.

"Thankfully, the internal injuries aren't serious; they're mostly superficial wounds, and there's no danger to his life." He breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Qian Renxue, asking, "You brat, how did you get like this?!"

"Because of the Soul Master Competition, Li Fei was hunted down..." Qian Renxue briefly explained Li Fei's ordeal, then continued, "Senior, Li Fei told me that you can help him recover here, is that true?!"

"It's true!" Dugu Bo nodded, took out two antidote pills, put one into Li Fei's mouth, and handed the other to Qian Renxue: "Take this first, then come with me!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Qian Renxue swallowed the pill in one gulp and followed Dugu Bo into the poison array.

The demon-slaying figure appeared, reached out and touched the poison array. The soul power covering his hand was instantly corroded. If he hadn't withdrawn his hand quickly enough, he probably would have been poisoned as well.

"What kind of toxin is this? It can even corrode soul power!"

The Demon Slayer stared in shock at the writhing poisonous creature before him, unsure of what to do. He had never imagined that this Poison Douluo could create such a potent poison that could even corrode soul power; he had never heard of anything like it.

He circulated his soul power and flew directly into the sky above Sunset Forest to observe the situation of the poison array.

"Its size covers a fifth of the forest, and we don't even know where Xue'er and that old poisoner are. The speed at which it corrodes soul power—even I couldn't hold out for long. What should we do?!"

The demon stalker hesitated in front of the poison array. If he hadn't had a feeling that Qian Renxue would be alright, he would have already used his staff to blow away the poison array and save her.

"I'll wait half a day. If Xue'er doesn't show up after half a day, I'll just storm in!"

They found a place to hide and began to wait patiently.

……

"Is this the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire that Li Fei mentioned?!"

Qian Renxue carried Li Fei on her back and followed Dugu Bo to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well. Looking at the huge spring with its distinct red and blue colors and the precious herbs that could be seen everywhere, Qian Renxue was completely shocked.

"That's right!" Dugu Bo walked over, took out a simple bed and placed it next to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, saying, "I'll go prepare the medicine. You put the brat on the bed first; the environment here will be very helpful for his injuries."

"Thank you, senior!" Qian Renxue put Li Fei down and then bowed to express her gratitude.

"The greatest gratitude you can give me is simply not to spread this information!"

Dugu Bo waved his hand, then walked to the place where herbs were planted and began to select suitable herbs to prepare medicine for Li Fei.

"No wonder Li Fei forbade anyone to follow me and wished me to keep quiet. If any top-tier power found out about what's here, it would cause a bloodbath!"

Qian Renxue suddenly realized that the top forces were not like Dugu Bo, who was unaware of the value of immortal herbs. They were very clear about the value of most immortal herbs. Once people knew about the special nature of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, not only would there be competition from the outside world, but also from within the organization.

"Xue'er, Senior Dugu Bo is here to take care of you, and you still have the identity of Xue Qinghe to play. Don't waste your time here!" Li Fei's voice rang in Qian Renxue's mind.

"You're trying to get rid of me!" Qian Renxue looked aggrieved and grabbed Li Fei's hand.

"No!" Li Fei said helplessly, and continued, "This is also for our future. Xue Qinghe's identity is still very important. Whether it's my establishment of the Body Sect or the future Spirit Empire of the Spirit Hall, we need the assistance of this identity. Moreover, when you came to Sunset Forest just now, I sensed the aura of Lord Demon Slayer. He should have come with us."

"Alright, I'll be leaving in a bit. Is this all done?" Qian Renxue rolled her eyes and said irritably.

"Xue'er, thank you!"

After speaking, Li Fei withdrew his mental energy and began to feel his body's condition.

Upon arriving at the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, Li Fei's body continuously absorbed the extreme spiritual energies of ice and fire, transforming them into pure soul power that subtly modified his body and enhanced his potential. Moreover, during this process, his blood and qi also slowly increased, soon reaching their limit.

"It seems that my original martial soul is more suited to the path of qi and blood. Just one serious injury has allowed me to successfully evolve the limit that would normally take three months to reach during the martial soul adjustment process. Once I recover from my injuries, I will be able to condense my second qi and blood soul ring."

"Perfect timing. I've almost grasped the essence of Ming Jin, so it should be time to get to the point about An Jin."
