Inside the secret room, Hong Ling looked at Lian Chengyu who was still lying on the stretcher, and his eyes filled with seriousness. To him, wanting to completely remove the Ghost Eclipse Poison from Lian Chengyu's and his body was no less than a battle to the death. The Ghost Erosion Poison was one of the world's most vicious, slow-acting poisons. It was able to slowly devour the host's vitality and talent, eventually transforming into a ghost. After the host's life force was completely devoured, they would die completely. All of his innate talent and cultivation would be completely concentrated on the ghost.

The Ghost Eclipse Poison that could be implanted into the human body came from the matured ghost mother. The Ghost Progenitor's body usually had a master, and once the Ghost Eclipse Poison formed a new individual, the master could summon the master back. Every single newly formed ghost was a good primer. As long as he combined them with some profound techniques, he would be able to refine elixirs that could raise the talent of a cultivator. It was obvious that someone had planted the poison of Ghostly Erosion on Lian Chengyu and Lian Chengyu's bodies in order to nurture a new individual spirit, so that they could plunder their martial talent and cultivation.

Hong Ling did not want to simply dispel the Ghost Erosion poison, and wanted to counter it. Towards the person who planted this evil, chronic poison, Hong Ling felt disgust from the bottom of his heart. He wanted to use this method to completely cripple this person. He had two Life Recovery Pills from Su Yu's hands, which was more than enough to prove that Lian Chengyu and Zhihuo were safe and sound. With a thought, the Yanhuang Mirror in his body stirred, raising his own strength to the Tianren Sage Stage. He turned around and nodded to the nervous Lian Chenglie, who was protecting him.

Bang, a ball of Tianhuang Lightning Fire formed casually, Hong Ling's finger touched the inside of Lian Chengyu's Divine Palace, completely stunning him. The youth quickly used the Authentic Qi to seal Lian Chengyu's five senses, preventing him from feeling pain. He then slowly pressed the Tianhuang Lightning Fire into his chest. His consciousness guided the dark golden flames as they slowly circulated within Lian Chengyu's body, washing over and over again his soul and the bones in his four limbs. The instant the cold energy of the Ice Snow Dragon's Pearl within Lian Chengyu's body encountered the Tianhuang Lightning Fire, it quickly melted. As the cold aura disappeared, the Ghost Erosion Poison that was originally condensed in Lian Chengyu's body actually began to slowly recover, quickly seep into his flesh. But, how could Hong Ling allow it to do so? With a thought, the Tianhuang Lightning Fire slowly wrapped around it, and gathered towards Lian Chengyu's Dantian bit by bit.

Hong Ling didn't dare to have the slightest bit of carelessness. Even though he looked relaxed at the moment, his mental state had already collapsed to the limit. Wanting to completely dispel the profound energy from the Frozen Ice Dragon Pearl and also successfully expel the poison of the Ghost Erosion from Lian Chengyu's body, was simply not an easy task. Even if some Heaven's Mandate Sage Stage experts were to personally make a move, they wouldn't be able to guarantee that they would be able to successfully resolve the two situations without harming Lian Chengyu. Hong Ling could barely do this only when he used the Imperial Equipment s and fused them with his own unique Tianhuang Lightning Fire.

Lian Chenglie nervously defended Hong Ling. His face was covered with sweat, and during the days when Lian Chengyu and Zhihuo were injured, he had been guarding the two of them. So much so that even the position of Tianhuang City was handed over to the Vice City Master. To Lian Chenglie, Lian Chengyu and Zhihuo were his last worries.

The poison of the Ghost Erosion gathered bit by bit in Lian Chengyu's Dantian, and Hong Ling's hand floated above his Dantian. His five fingers slowly clenched, as if they were grabbing onto something. Little by little, a jet black mist was pulled out from Lian Chengyu's dantian. Hiss! That ball of smoke seemed to come alive, like a ghost in the dark night, constantly twisting and roaring.

Hong Ling looked at the Ghostly Erosion Poison floating in his palms within the Tianhuang Lightning Fire, and his gaze turned cold. He casually took out a sparkling and transparent gold crystal and injected the demonic corrosive poison into it. He used his Tianhuang Lightning Fire and completely sealed the golden crystal. Casually taking out the Life Recovery Pill from Su Yu, Hong Ling put it into Lian Chengyu's mouth, and with the Authentic Qi, he slowly took out the medicine to recover his life force bit by bit.

He checked Lian Chengyu's body and frowned. Although the Toxin of Ghost Erosion and the Profound Ice Power from the Ice Snow Dragon's Pearl had been completely eliminated, the two had, after all, eroded Lian Chengyu's body for quite some time, causing his body to be in a somewhat dilapidated state. He then bit his middle finger and dripped a drop of his blood essence onto Lian Chengyu's forehead. The young man used his divine sense to guide the drop of blood essence to slowly circulate within Lian Chengyu's body, healing his injuries. With his current level of cultivation in the Tianren Sage Stage, this drop of blood contained enough strength to completely repair Lian Chengyu's injuries.

After nearly two hours had passed, Hong Ling finally withdrew the finger that was pressed between Lian Chengyu's brows. He nodded to Lian Chenglie who was at the side, closed his eyes and adjusted his breathing, preparing to heal Zhihuo. Zhihuo's injuries were a little easier than Lian Chengyu's, but to Hong Ling, there was no difference between the two. The process of healing Zhihuo was the same as healing Lian Chengyu. When Hong Ling completely dispelled the girl's power of profound ice and the poison of Ghost Erosion, and used his blood essence to heal her injuries, he unexpectedly woke up.

She stared at Hong Ling curiously, then looked at Lian Chengyu, her eyes filled with worry. Hong Ling was already extremely tired, after sealing the Ghost Erosion Poison into the gold crystal from before, the youth couldn't care about anything else anymore, and immediately closed his eyes and started to recuperate. He was too tired. To be able to use the Yanhuang Mirror's strength for such a long and high intensity, even with the spatial ring on his hand constantly providing the Spiritual Power, it was still hard for him to endure the fatigue that followed. By the time Hong Ling had completely woken up from his recuperation, it was already night. Lian Chengyu, Zhihuo, Lian Chenglie and the rest stood to the side, quietly protecting him. Seeing him wake up, their faces were filled with excitement.

"Hong Ling, there is no need to thank me. This brother of yours, I, Lian Chengyu, have finally confirmed it in this life!" Without waiting for him to speak, Lian Chengyu hurriedly spoke, causing Hong Ling to be stunned for a moment.

Although he and Lian Chengyue were lovers, he was still friends with Lian Chengyu. Now that Lian Chengyu took the initiative to recognize him as a brother, it was naturally extremely good. Zhihuo said blessings to him when he saw that he had woken up.

"Zhihuo thanks young master for saving my life!" Her sincere tone did not contain the slightest bit of pretentiousness, causing Hong Ling to be overwhelmed by the unexpected favor. This was his future sister-in-law, yet she unexpectedly said her blessings to him. Wasn't this equivalent to slashing him to death?

"Hong Ling, thank you for saving those two. If you have any difficulties in the future, feel free to tell Uncle Lian Cheng that Uncle will help you!" Hong Ling naturally knew what the difficult part was. It was no more than that if he was really together with Lian Chengyue in the future, he could ask Lian Chenglie to take care of him. After all, it was easier to talk to someone from the family.

When Lian Chenglie and the other two walked out of the secret room, Su Yu, his master, his servant, and Qingyao were still guarding outside. When they saw that they had come out, everyone was overjoyed. Hong Ling held the gold crystal sealed with the poison of Ghost Erosion in his hand, his eyes filled with a murderous aura.

Under Hong Ling's summoning, Canfeng had already arrived at Jixia Academy earlier on, and was quietly waiting right now.

"Canfeng, collect all the information you have on the Heaven Medicine Pavilion and Young Lord s for me. Before tomorrow, I want to know the exact information!" Hong Ling said to Canfeng. At this time, he was truly angry and wanted to take action against this so called Heaven Medicine Pavilion Young Lord.

"It's gongzi, your subordinate will deal with it right away!" Canfeng nodded his head, with his current power of Spirit Refinement, investigating anything would be extremely easy.

Lian Chengyu and Zhihuo looked at each other, their eyes filled with worry. However, since this was something that Hong Ling had decided himself, they could not stop him. Hong Ling stared at the golden crystal in his hand that was sealed with the poison of the Ghost Erosion. He lightly tapped a drop of blood essence on the crystal and slowly injected the Authentic Qi inside. After devouring his blood and Authentic Qi, the poison of the Ghost Erosion actually instantly increased dramatically, and seemed to be on the verge of solidifying into a corporeal form. An incomparably cold aura emanated from the crystal, causing everyone to shiver.

Without a doubt, this poison was truly too strange and vicious. Furthermore, it could grow on its own without stop. It was extremely frightening.

"Young master, what are you doing collecting this Ghost Erosion Poison? Isn't it better to destroy it?" Xiao Tao asked somewhat puzzled.

"No, I can't destroy it. This poison is extremely useful to me." Hong Ling shook his head, "I want to use this poison to fish out its owner. I want to see exactly who it is that actually dares to poison Big Brother Lian Cheng and Zhihuo! "

Hong Ling kept the gold crystal inside his spatial ring, and looked at the crowd who were staring at him with astonished expressions.

"I say, what happened to you?"

Su Yu walked over with a face full of smiles, and said: "Big Brother Hong Ling, that Aohan, you were the one who killed him, right?"

"Yeah, what's wrong?" Hong Ling nodded and asked.

"It's nothing, I just want to know how you cultivate. Even an expert from the Flood Dragon Clan like Aohan was killed by you!" Qingyao smiled as he walked over and reached out to pinch his face. "How can someone like you, who's so good-looking, rich, able to refine artifacts, and can even save people, have a fiancée?"

"He has always been a freak!" Zhihuo chimed in from the side.

That's right, this guy, when I first saw him, it was almost two years ago. At that time he was only at the early stage of Essence Refinement into Qi, but now he has already reached the peak of the Qi Refinement into Spirit. Lian Chengyu said as he nodded his head with certainty.

"Speaking of which, Young Noble, when you have the time, refine a few Celestial Rank Magic Equipment for us!" Xiao Tao laughed and said. When he said that, everyone's eyes lit up.

"This guy, can he already refine Celestial Rank Magic Equipment?" Lian Chengyu stared at Hong Ling with sparkling eyes, his eyes filled with laughter, "Hehe, brother, when are you going to refine some for me, so that I can be the one to show off?"

Hong Ling's head started to hurt, as he realized that Fang Qian, Xiao Chuhe and Lian Chenglie were all excited, and immediately ran away. What a joke, with so many people, who would still want to refine a few Celestial Rank Magic Equipment, wouldn't that tire him to death?
