Yueqi had no intention of wasting words with Ye Liuyun. If it weren't for the fact that her mind was entirely focused on resolving the Holy Land's predicament, she probably wouldn't have had the patience to say another word to Ye Liuyun under normal circumstances, because she simply didn't believe that the person in front of her had a solution.
Chapter 571 Miraculous Healing (5000 words)
If Yueqi had never believed what the person in front of her said before, but now she didn't have a good solution or a suitable plan, she could only try anything as a last resort. Hope was better than no hope, and trying was better than doing nothing.
“What I say goes, I’ll take the loss. I can even swear to God.” Yue Qi said to Ye Liuyun with sharp eyes and a serious expression.
Ye Liuyun thought for a moment, then smiled.
"Alright then, Your Highness, please make an oath. Once you make the oath, I will immediately go and help the Holy Land resolve this crisis."
Yueqi couldn't help but purse her lips, and one hand instinctively clenched into a fist. She really wanted to slap the person in front of her to death, but after thinking about it for a while, she decided to give it a try first.
"Alright, but let me make this clear from the start: if you dare to lie to me, this Holy Maiden will show you what it means to be unable to live or die," Yue Qi warned.
Ye Liuyun nodded confidently.
"Don't worry, as long as Your Highness gives me your assurance, everything will be fine. With my cultivation level, I wouldn't lie to you," Ye Liuyun said again.
Yueqi took a deep breath. She never thought she would be in such an embarrassing situation, being forced to make an oath by a little girl she could easily crush.
“Alright, I, Yue Qi, the Holy Maiden of the Gu Ling Holy Land, hereby swear. By the way, what is your name?” Yue Qi had just stood up to swear, but suddenly remembered that she did not know Ye Liuyun’s name, so she quickly asked.
Ye Liuyun immediately introduced himself.
"Your Highness, I am Shi Youlan, a disciple of the Ten Thousand Poisons Valley in the Southern Frontier."
Yueqi was taken aback. She must know about the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons, a major sect in the Southern Frontier.
After saying that, Yueqi continued to swear.
"I, Yueqi, the Holy Maiden of the Guling Holy Land, hereby swear to the Heavenly Dao that if Shi Youlan can resolve the predicament of my Guling Holy Land, I will do my utmost to fulfill all her reasonable requests. If I break this oath, may my cultivation be unable to advance any further in this life, and may my soul be scattered and I die." Yueqi swore.
When Ye Liuyun heard that Yue Qi had actually made a solemn oath, he thought to himself, "It seems that Yue Qi is really anxious, otherwise she wouldn't have so easily believed a nobody."
"Alright, tell me, how do you plan to resolve the predicament of our Gu Spirit Holy Land?" Yue Qi asked with a gloomy look.
Ye Liuyun chuckled.
"Your Highness, let's go. Let's go to where that powerful figure is. His purpose in besieging the Holy Land was to force the Holy Land to cure his descendants of the poison, right? If I go and cure his descendants of the poison, then the Holy Land's predicament will naturally be resolved," Ye Liuyun suggested.
Yueqi was stunned when she heard Ye Liuyun's words. She wanted to say, "How dare you be so arrogant? You're just a Dao Palace Realm cultivator, yet you claim you can dispel the cursed soul poison."
But all she saw in Ye Liuyun's expression and eyes was confidence; she couldn't see a trace of worry or fear.
Such composure could only mean that the other person was truly confident, or fearless and suicidal. The girl in front of her didn't seem like she wanted to die.
"Alright, I hope you really have the ability to neutralize this number one poison in the world." Yue Qi sighed helplessly, then got up and led Ye Liuyun out of the pavilion.
Those outside looked on with confusion when they saw Yueqi and Ye Liuyun come out.
"Your Highness, do you have a solution?" everyone asked hurriedly.
But what could Yueqi do? She glanced at Ye Liuyun.
“I don’t have the means, but this young lady says she has a way to break the curse and soul poison. I’m going to take her to that senior Wang Tongtian now,” Yue Qi said.
These words immediately caused an uproar among the cultivators present.
"What? This greenhorn dares to say she can dispel the cursed soul poison? Hahaha, this old man feels like he's heard the most ridiculous joke in the world." Some of the older-looking cultivators couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Looking at their expressions, Ye Liuyun thought to himself, "Laugh all you want, you won't be able to laugh for long."
"Tch! Just because you're incompetent doesn't mean you can't allow others to be?" Ye Liuyun said sarcastically.
These words immediately silenced the laughing cultivators.
"You brat, fine, we'd like to see if you really have the ability. If you can neutralize this number one poison in the world, I'll call you my grandma from now on," said a powerful expert in the Transformation Realm.
Ye Liuyun smiled.
"And what about you guys? Do you all think I'm exaggerating?" Ye Liuyun looked at the others again.
“Nonsense, I’m just like him. If you can cure this poison, I’ll call you not only great-aunt, but also great-great-grandmother.” The other person was even more impressive.
The others also joined in the commotion, but little did they know that their commotion was just digging their own graves, as Ye Liuyun was about to gain so many filial grandchildren for no reason.
"Alright, alright, it's a deal, Your Highness, let's go." Ye Liuyun was overjoyed; she could already imagine the expressions on these guys' faces later.
Yue Qi couldn't laugh at all. She reached out and used her power to envelop Ye Liuyun, then flew into the sky and headed towards the Gu Ling Holy Land.
The others present quickly followed suit; they definitely wanted to see what was going on.
"This audacious little girl actually dared to deceive the Holy Maiden. If she can't break the poison later, she'll probably die without a burial place."
"Yes, but what if he succeeds? We're not really going to have to call her 'Grandma,' are we?"
The crowd chattered excitedly, and some even started making bets on whether Ye Liuyun could truly resolve the situation.
A moment later, as they approached the edge of the Gu Spirit Holy Land, they saw that the place was blocked by an incomparably towering mountain, which was like a natural chasm or a city wall.
This was created by Wang Tongtian using his great supernatural powers. The other side of the mountain mist is the Gu Spirit Holy Land, and Wang Tongtian does not allow anyone to cross this insurmountable barrier.
"Wow, what a grand undertaking! Master, did Wang Tongtian orchestrate this?" Ye Liuyun exclaimed in amazement. "It's so magnificent; the mountain peaks don't even reach into the clouds."
"It's just constructed from the power of laws," Lin Qingyou replied.
Looking at the endless mountain mists before her, Yueqi sighed repeatedly, then stepped forward and spoke to the other side of the mountain mists.
"Senior Wang, I have found a way to detoxify your granddaughter. Please allow me and this young lady to come over," Yueqi called out.
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Tongtian, who was sitting at the entrance of the Gu Ling Holy Land, basking in the sun and drinking tea, suddenly froze. He glanced at Yue Qi's position with his divine sense, and upon seeing it, he spat out the spiritual tea in his mouth.
"This, isn't this the little girl from the Gu God Domain that we met in that strange place?" Wang Tongtian was very puzzled. He didn't expect to meet Ye Liuyun here.
After she finished speaking, she raised her hand and waved it. A force of law descended from the sky and instantly enveloped Ye Liuyun and Yue Qi. The next moment, the two of them disappeared from their original spot and appeared next to Wang Tongtian.
That speed is incredible.
Ye Liuyun looked around before turning his gaze to Wang Tongtian, who was lounging leisurely in a grand chair. Yue Qi was about to say something when Wang Tongtian spoke first.
"Oh? Little girl, I didn't expect to see you here. It's only been a few days since we last met," Wang Tongtian said with a smile.
Yue Qi, who was standing to the side, was immediately stunned. She looked at Ye Liuyun beside her in disbelief and then quickly asked.
"This? Senior Wang, you know this Miss Shi Youlan?"
Wang Tongtian smiled and nodded.
"Yes, I met Senior Wang by chance. Senior Wang didn't expect you to come to the Gu Spirit Holy Land to detoxify your granddaughter. You should have said so earlier. If you had, I could have helped you as soon as I saw you," Ye Liuyun joked.
Wang Tongtian was taken aback when he heard this, and then suddenly stood up from the armchair.
"What? Little girl, you say you can cure my granddaughter's poison? Are you sure? You're not joking, are you? Let me tell you, if you're playing me for a fool, even if we knew each other before, I'll still teach you a lesson." Wang Tongtian warned with a stern face.
Ye Liuyun chuckled.
"Senior, how about I make a bet with you?" Ye Liuyun suggested.
Looking at Ye Liuyun's confident demeanor, Wang Tongtian narrowed his eyes. He stroked his beard with one hand, his eyes darting left and right, his expression comical. He was trying to figure out what Ye Liuyun was up to.
"A bet? Tell me about it," Wang Tongtian gestured.
"It's simple. If I fail to detoxify, you can do whatever you want with my life. But if I succeed, you'll have to fulfill three conditions. How about it?" Ye Liuyun said with a smile.
If Ye Liuyun were to become a businesswoman, she would definitely be a cunning one. She first demanded a promise from Yue Qi, and now she's asking Wang Tongtian for the same thing. Isn't this a scheme to sell something to both of them?
Wang Tongtian's eyes darted around like whirlwinds.
"How can this little girl be so meticulous? She's only at the Dao Palace realm, yet she dares to make such boastful claims. But, let's bet then. This little girl is quite interesting. If she loses, I'll let her stay and be my little maid, serving tea and water. It'll be good for chatting and relieving my boredom." Wang Tongtian muttered to himself.
After thinking it over for a while, Wang Tongtian agreed to Ye Liuyun's suggestion.
“Alright, I’ll make a bet with you, little girl. I’m quite bored anyway. If you lose, you’ll have to stay by my side as a maid,” Wang Tongtian said.
"It's a deal." Ye Liuyun chuckled.
With a wave of his hand, Wang Tongtian brought the crystal coffin containing his granddaughter down to Ye Liuyun's feet.
"What a beautiful young lady! Senior, is this your descendant?" Ye Liuyun asked.
"Yes, her name is Wang Xi, and she is my great-granddaughter. As for which generation of great-granddaughter, there's no need to worry about it. Anyway, she's my granddaughter," Wang Tongtian said.
Ye Liuyun squatted down and then gestured.
"Open the ice coffin."
Wang Tongtian hesitated for a moment, and she reminded him again.
“Little girl, my granddaughter doesn’t have much of a chance left. If she can’t receive effective treatment once this coffin is opened, you can imagine the consequences,” Wang Tongtian said.
"I understand, senior. I wouldn't risk my life like that," Ye Liuyun assured him again.
Wang Tongtian is at a loss now. The Gu Ling Holy Land is clearly unwilling to help. He said he has time to wear down the Gu Ling Holy Land, but that's just a threat. He can't leave the Wang family for too long.
"Alright! If Wang Xi can't be saved today, then it's just fate. I'll trust you this once, little girl. I hope you can bring me an unexpected surprise." Wang Tongtian waved his hand and opened the lid of the crystal coffin.
In fact, Wang Tongtian had no choice. This coffin could not keep Wang Xi alive indefinitely. At most, it would last for seventy years. If there was no way to save him, he would still die. Wang Tongtian had thought of many ways and sought help from many experts, even those at the Divine Path Realm.
But there was nothing he could do, and the only solution he could find was to ask the Gu Spirit Holy Land for help. However, the Gu Spirit Holy Land seemed unwilling to comply even in the face of death, leaving him with no hope.
The ice coffin was opened, and a chill wafted out. The girl inside looked like a corpse, her skin pale and bloodless, almost lifeless. However, upon careful observation, Ye Liuyun could tell that the girl still had a sliver of life.
But this life force was not enough to revive her.
"Another beautiful girl," Ye Liuyun praised, then glanced at Wang Tongtian and Yue Qi.
"Hey, you two, I don't share my antidote method with outsiders. I hope you'll turn around and not peek," Ye Liuyun reminded them again.
Wang Tongtian rolled his eyes, but he still turned around on his own. Since he had decided to trust others, this request should be granted.
Yueqi was somewhat reluctant, but under pressure from Wang Tongtian, she turned around. In the instant they turned around, Ye Liuyun quickly took out a Rejuvenating Pill and stuffed it into the girl's mouth, then injected it into her body.
The reason she didn't use the universal antidote was because she discovered that the girl's condition was more accurately described as a poison injury than poisoning. Since the poison was the main cause of the injury, the Rejuvenating Pill would be the most effective treatment.
The universal antidote can only detoxify, but it cannot restore the girl's lost vitality.
As the pill entered her body, its medicinal power began to spread throughout the girl's body. This immense medicinal power swept away the toxins in her body in an instant, like a vast ocean. With the toxins gone, her injuries healed rapidly, and the life force that had been like a candle flame in the wind quickly became richer and more stable.
Her pale skin gradually regained color, and the girl's heart began to beat rhythmically.
A moment later, the girl's eyelashes fluttered, and she finally opened her eyes. The moment she opened her eyes, she saw an unfamiliar face smiling at her.
Upon seeing the girl awaken, Ye Liuyun straightened up.
"Alright, mission accomplished. Senior, Your Highness, you may turn around now," Ye Liuyun gestured.
Upon hearing this, Wang Tongtian and Yue Qi immediately turned to look at the girl. When Wang Tongtian saw that his granddaughter had opened her eyes and the soul poison mark on her body had disappeared, he was utterly astonished.
"Xi'er, you're awake." After his initial shock, Wang Tongtian appeared beside the girl with great excitement, tears streaming down his face.
Upon seeing his ancestor, Wang Xi, feeling somewhat weak, tried to get up.
"Grandpa, what's wrong with me? I feel like I've slept for a long time," Wang Xi asked, looking puzzled.
Wang Xi has indeed been asleep for a long time, almost thirty years.
For thirty years, Wang Tongtian took her everywhere seeking medical treatment, but unfortunately, they returned empty-handed time and time again.
Yue Qi was even more astonished, because she discovered that Wang Xi had indeed recovered from all his illnesses, and the cursed soul poison on his body had completely disappeared.
"How is this possible? What did this little girl just do?" After looking at Wang Xi, Yue Qi immediately turned her gaze to Ye Liuyun beside her, her eyes looking as if she had seen a monster.
Although their Gu Spirit Holy Land can also cure this cursed soul poison, it's impossible for them to resolve it in such a short time.
"How... how did you do that?" Yueqi couldn't help but ask.
Ye Liuyun glanced at Yue Qi, then answered with a smile.
"I'm sorry, this is a secret. I hope Your Highness will not ask further."
Since Ye Liuyun wouldn't say anything, there was nothing Yueqi could do.
As for Wang Tongtian, he had already examined Wang Xi's body and found that she was perfectly fine. Apart from the stiffness caused by her long period of hibernation, she had no other sequelae.
"Heavens! This is truly a miracle! Even a powerful expert couldn't break this poison, yet this little girl actually managed to do it." Wang Tongtian couldn't help but look at Ye Liuyun.
Looking at Wang Tongtian's expression, Wang Xi couldn't help but ask again.
"Grandpa, how long have I been asleep? I remember I think I was poisoned and passed out."
Wang Tongtian sighed, then said with a smile.
“Child, you are alright now. You have been asleep for thirty years since you were poisoned, and you are finally better today.”
Wang Xi was stunned. Her memory was still stuck before she fell into a coma. At that time, her family had given her a death notice, saying that there was no hope.
