Chapter 5309: Eliminate All Poisons in One Day
“Is there a way to detoxify?” David asked hurriedly.
Mo Chen looked at David, then at the unconscious Ling Xue. After a moment of hesitation, he said, “This poison requires extreme Yang power to neutralize it. Ordinary herbs are ineffective… The best solution is sexual intercourse between a man and a woman, channeling their own spiritual energy…”
David was stunned to hear this.
Hu Mazi’s eyes sparkled golden, and he was eager to offer his services, as a man.
“I’ll take care of things outside first, David… Take care of yourself.”
After that, Mo Chen hurriedly pulled Hu Mazi away, as if staying a second longer would be awkward.
Hu Mazi didn’t want to leave, but with Mo Chen holding him back, he couldn’t do anything!
In an instant, the two of them were alone in the yard.
David stared at Ling Xue lying on the ground. Her breathing was getting faster, her cheeks red as if blood was dripping. He unconsciously tore off her shirt, revealing her snow-white neck.
Heat radiated from his dantian, and David swallowed, suppressing the throbbing in his heart.
He knew now was not the time to think about these things, but Li Chunfeng’s words kept ringing in his mind.
“We have to save her.” David gritted his teeth, picked Ling Xue up, and carried her to the bedroom.
Gently laying her down on the bed, David turned to look for Hu Mazi to find another solution, but his wrist was tightly gripped.
“David…” Ling Xue opened her eyes dully, her vision blurry, and she muttered, “Don’t go…”
Her hands were warm and soft, and the touch made David freeze.
“Ling Xue, wait. I’ll find the antidote…”
“There is no point…”
Ling Xue shook her head slowly, her other hand wrapped around David’s neck, her breath as sweet as orchids. “I know… only you can save me…”
Her warm breath, carrying the distinct scent of a young woman, refreshed David’s sanity.
He stared into Ling Xue’s big, watery eyes, in which he could clearly see his own reflection.
“Are you… willing?” David’s voice was a little hoarse.
Ling Xue didn’t answer, but just stood on tiptoe and kissed his lips gently.
Like a spark burning dry wood, long-pent-up emotions explode.
The flickering candlelight in the room illuminated their intertwined figures. The moonlight outside the window had dimmed, enveloping the lovers who had endured so much hardship.
This night is destined to be sleepless.
The next morning, the first rays of sunlight penetrated the window lattice.
David slowly opened his eyes, looking at Ling Xue, who was sound asleep in his arms. Her face was still flushed, her long eyelashes fluttering gently, like a sleeping butterfly.
Last night’s madness felt like a dream, leaving only a room filled with beauty and a slight sense of guilt as he awoke. He gently covered Ling Xue with the blanket, then stood and walked to the window.
The courtyard had returned to tranquility. The traces of last night’s fight had been cleared away, leaving only the faint scent of blood in the air as a reminder of what had happened.
“Brother David,” Ling Xue’s voice sounded from behind him, a little lazy and shy.
David turned around and saw Ling Xue already dressed, but her cheeks were still red, and he didn’t want to look her in the eyes.
“How are you feeling?” David stepped forward and reached out to feel her pulse.
As spiritual energy poured in, David breathed a sigh of relief. The poison in Ling Xue’s body had been completely purged. Thanks to the absorption of her bloodline, her cultivation showed signs of breaking through to the fourth level of the Earthly Immortal Realm.
“Much better, thank you,” Ling Xue said, her head bowed, her voice as soft as a mosquito’s buzz.
Just then, Hu Mazi rushed in, shouting, “David! This is bad! Qin Lie and his men are coming to kill us!”
David’s face darkened. “Just in time.”
He exchanged glances with Ling Xue and immediately left the room.
The Sword Sect headquarters was already surrounded by a dense crowd of cultivators.
The one leading the attack was none other than Qin Lie, his eyes were bloodshot and a terrifying aura emanated from him, clearly having known Qin Feng’s fate.
Behind him stood about a dozen elders in various attire, each exuding a powerful aura, clearly the leaders of various sects.
