Chapter 120: Strange Fire Removes Poison

Chapter 120: Strange Fire Removes Poison
Xiao Ling nodded slightly, with a faint smile on his face, "Haha, I'll follow your arrangements, Yao Lao."

The two chatted for a while, and then Xiao Ling spread his fighting spirit wings and flew towards the Nalan family's mansion.

After a while, Xiao Ling turned into a bright green light and landed in front of the Nalan family's mansion.

Seeing Xiao Ling, the guard came forward, bowed slightly to Xiao Ling, and then said respectfully: "Hello, Master Xiao Ling. The old patriarch has already instructed me to welcome you here."

After saying that, he took Xiao Ling and walked towards the Nalan Mansion.

Xiao Ling nodded slightly in response, then followed the guard slowly.

Walking on the path paved with green gravel, Xiao Ling's soul perception was slightly released. In the darkness around him, there were many obscure eyes hidden. Under the eaves, there were many bows and crossbows that had been strung, which showed that the Nalan family was well guarded.

"Haha, Master Xiao Ling, your coming here today really makes my humble home honored!" First a heroic laugh was heard, and then Nalan Su was seen walking out of the luxurious hall at the end of the alley, walking quickly towards them.

"Patriarch Nalan, you're welcome."

Seeing Nalan Su, the guard bowed to him and turned away. It seems that the Nalan family's mansion is deep inside and ordinary people cannot enter.

"Master Xiao Ling, please follow me. My father is in the inner room now."

Following Nalan Su's footsteps, Xiao Ling entered a rather luxurious bedroom. Looking closely, he saw Nalan Jie sitting cross-legged on the bed in the center of the bedroom.

Seeing Xiao Ling coming, Nalan Jie smiled and said, "Next, I will have to trouble Master Xiao Ling."

Nodding, Xiao Ling pointed at Nalan Jie's upper body, "Mr. Nalan, take off your clothes first. I need to check you carefully."

Hearing this, Nalan Jie immediately did as he was told, took off his shirt, and sat cross-legged on the bed with his upper body exposed.

Although Nalan Jie looked lively and energetic, he was actually quite thin, with muscles all over his body atrophied to varying degrees. Under his skin, some gray-black gas could be faintly seen, flowing through his body as if it had life.

Xiao Ling looked at Nalan Jie's naked body and said slowly, "Mr. Nalan, I will use my soul perception to detect your internal condition later. Don't resist."

Nalan Jie smiled and said, "Master Xiao Ling, please."

Nodding slightly, Xiao Ling's mind moved, and the vast soul perception surged out. He began to observe the situation inside Nalan Jie's body through Nalan Jie's skin.

Through the perception of the soul, Xiao Ling could see that in Nalan Jie's flesh and blood, there was a large amount of gray-black substance that was like a bone-attaching cancer. This gray-black substance was extremely overbearing. Not only did it corrode Nalan Jie's flesh and blood, it also continued to spread towards Nalan Jie's bones and meridians.

Fortunately, they were suppressed by Nalan Jie's pure fighting spirit in their flesh and blood, and could not move forward. They were unable to expel them from their bodies, and in the stalemate with Nalan Jie's fighting spirit, some special changes occurred.

Retracting the soul perception that was emanating from him, Xiao Ling nodded calmly, "The situation is not particularly serious now. In another year or two, you might not be able to get out of bed."

Maybe it’s because the timeline is relatively early, but in the original novel, when Xiao Yan came to remove the poison from Nalan Jie, he looked half-dead.

Nalan Jie was shocked when he heard this, "This branding poison is really terrible." Shaking his head, Xiao Ling stopped thinking about it and looked at Nalan Jie seriously, "Mr. Nalan, I will control the strange fire and remove the branding poison in your body. Once the strange fire enters your body, Mr. Nalan's life and death will be in my hands. But you can rest assured, as an alchemist, my reputation is still good. If there is no problem, I will inject the strange fire into your body."

Nalan Jie laughed proudly and said in a relaxed tone: "Haha, if Master Xiao Ling wanted to harm me, why would he bother with so much trouble? I still have great faith in Master Xiao Ling's character."

Nodding slightly, Xiao Ling stretched out a finger and a green flame leaped up. In order to prevent Nalan Jie from feeling too much pain, Xiao Ling used the weaker Green Lotus Earth Core Fire.

The soul power slowly stretched out of the body, then wrapped the green flame in it, trying hard to suppress its scorching heat, and then gently touched Nalan Jie's back.

As he pointed his finger, the green flame puffed and penetrated into Nalan Jie's body.

At this moment, Nalan Jie, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, suddenly trembled.

Pointing his fingers at Nalan Jie's back, Xiao Ling narrowed his eyes and used his soul power to control the green flame, which quickly passed through some main meridians and then gradually approached the bones in the former's body that were covered with branding poison.

The soul power also gradually began to relax, and the temperature of the blue flame quietly rose.

As the temperature of the blue flame increased, Nalan Jie, who had originally had a numb face, gradually felt a sense of pain on his face. His dry palms were clenched tightly, and blue veins were throbbing on his arms.

The green flame wrapped in soul power stopped rising when it reached a certain temperature. After making sure the temperature was appropriate, Xiao Ling controlled the green flame to cover a piece of black bone.

"Ah." Nalan Jie, who had his eyes tightly closed on the bed, suddenly opened them and let out a hoarse, dry roar of pain. "Master Xiao Ling... it really... hurts too much. My old bones can't stand this."

Seeing this, Nalan Su cast a worried look at Xiao Ling, "Master Xiao Ling, my father will not be in any danger, right?"

Raising his eyebrows, Xiao Ling said indifferently: "This is a strange fire, of course it will be painful. If you can't stand the pain, then there is no way to cure it. But don't worry, you will definitely not die."

In the original novel, it took Xiao Yan seven days to completely remove the poison from Nalan Jie's body. Even if the poison is not as serious now as it will be three years later, Xiao Ling does not intend to waste time.

With a slight activation of the healing skill, a stream of clear water entered Nalan Jie's body and healed the burned surface of his bones.

In the following period of time, every time Xiao Ling used the strange fire to remove the poison from a piece of bone, he would use his healing skills to help Nalan Jie treat him.

From time to time in this luxurious room, Nalan Jie's screams could be heard, mixed with a few comfortable moans. Xiao Ling had no choice but to speed up the burning of the strange fire. It wouldn't burn him to death anyway, so it would be better to end it early.

"Master Xiao Ling, your unique recovery ability is truly extraordinary." Nalan Jie, who was sweating profusely, said breathlessly.

Without taking up the topic, Xiao Ling responded calmly: "I will take back the strange fire next. Now the poison in your body has been completely dispelled by me, and your body functions have been fully restored."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Ling moved his mind and took the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire in Nalan Jie's body back into his body.

Without waiting for Nalan Jie and Nalan Su to speak, Xiao Ling walked out of the room, spread his fighting spirit wings, and flew towards the outside of the Nalan residence.
