Chapter 304: Chapter 304 Healing the Sword King

Oh?

Ling Jinghu asked in surprise: “Why?”

Xu Yining’s face showed disdain as she said: “Not long ago, they encountered an elder who was badly injured by a demon beast.”

“Instead of saving him, they took his sword.”

“Later, they discovered that this sword was actually a top-grade magic weapon, and they realized they had caused a great disaster.”

Top-grade magic weapon?

Ling Jinghu took a deep breath.

There were only two top-grade magic swords in the Nine-Sect Continent, one with the Supreme Sect and the other with Myriad Swords Sect, both held by the Supreme Elder.

Jin Yunlie not only didn’t save them but took advantage of the situation and stole the divine weapon?

If this Supreme Elder survived, wouldn’t he chase them down?

No wonder Jin Yunlie insisted on traveling with them!

It turned out he wanted to shift the trouble eastward, making them share the burden.

“That damned dog!”

Understanding Jin Yunlie’s malicious intentions, Ling Jinghu cursed angrily on the spot.

She didn’t dare to stay any longer.

She quickly drove the carriage away.

Jiang Fan was utterly confused, not understanding why Ling Jinghu was so panicked.

After hurrying for about half a day.

There was a tea shed ahead on the official road where Ling Jinghu stopped and called everyone to rest.

Everyone had been bumped around a lot along the way.

Those who needed to stretch their limbs did so.

Those who needed to relieve themselves did so.

Ling Jinghu, however, sat down heavily at a tea table, looking preoccupied.

But just as she sat down.

A cold, elderly voice came to her ear.

“Why are you here?”

She turned her head to look.

Behind her, an old man stood with his hands behind his back!

He appeared ethereal and dignified.

Wearing a clean and simple green robe.

His cheeks were thin, hair gray-white, and a righteous aura between his brows.

Others may not recognize him.

Ling Jinghu, who had seen him not long ago, certainly knew him.

She shivered inside.

Quickly stood up, bowing respectfully: “Senior Xu, why are you here?”

The person in front of her was none other than the Supreme Elder of Myriad Swords Sect.

Xu Qingyang!

Compared to yesterday, his skin looked slightly pale.

Clearly, he had been injured.

At this moment, he stared at Ling Jinghu with a hint of suspicion in his eyes: “I asked you!”

Ling Jinghu felt bitter in her heart.

The person whose sword was taken away was undoubtedly Xu Qingyang.

But he seemed not to know who it was and conveniently ran into their group, thus suspecting them.

She hurriedly said: “To be honest, Senior, our Sect Master later killed another Silver Winged Thunderbird.”

“I was ordered to deliver it to Myriad Swords Sect and hand it over to you.”

“Unexpectedly, I met you here, Senior.”

Xu Qingyang glanced at their carriage.

Sure enough, he found a huge demon beast’s corpse covered with cloth.

His cold expression softened slightly.

But his eyes still carried some suspicion: “Let me ask you, have you passed by Ziyan Mountain?”

Ling Jinghu’s heart skipped a beat, knowing Xu Qingyang suspected her.

She didn’t dare to hide anything and said: “Reporting to Senior, it was the people from True Thunder Sect who took your sword.”

“It has nothing to do with our Desires Sect.”

Upon hearing this, Xu Qingyang’s face turned stiff.

Looking around, he said hurriedly: “Shut up!”

“Who asked about the sword?”

The dignified Supreme Elder of Myriad Swords Sect, the First Sword King of the Nine-Sect Continent, ranked among the top three contemporary world-class experts.

Had his life-bound magical artifact taken away.

If it spread, how could he keep his face?

Ling Jinghu was stunned, then understood Xu Qingyang’s intention, quickly said:

“Yes, Senior, I misspoke.”

Xu Qingyang glared at her: “I will travel with you for a while.”

“Don’t reveal my identity.”

Ah?

Ling Jinghu was dumbfounded.

Then immediately realized Xu Qingyang was still heavily injured, not suitable for rushing travel.

She quickly said: “Senior, how did you get such severe injuries?”

Xu Qingyang replied with some annoyance: “Isn’t it because of your Desires Sect Master?”

“Without the Silver Winged Thunderbird, I went west to see if there were any more.”

“As a result, not long after going deep west, I encountered the Sky-Devouring Tiger, one of the Four Great Demon Kings under the Demon Emperor.”

“Although I seriously injured it, I ended up with serious injuries too.”

Ling Jinghu was horrified: “Sky-Devouring Tiger?”

Under the Demon Emperor, there were four Great Demon Kings at the Core Formation Realm Perfection, about to take on human form.

Immensely powerful.

Ordinary Supreme Elders encountering them would have slim chances of survival.

It was only thanks to Senior Xu Qingyang’s divine swordsmanship and unfathomable strength that he managed to survive.

But immediately, Ling Jinghu became extremely uneasy: “There is a trace of the Four Great Demon Kings in the west of our Desires Sect?”

“If the beast tide erupts, won’t our Desires Sect…”

Xu Qingyang held his chest, where blood seeped faintly.

He sighed deeply: “This tiger’s injuries are worse than mine.”

“If other Great Demon Kings don’t replace it, the beast tide in the west will not erupt in the near future.”

Upon hearing this, Ling Jinghu breathed a sigh of relief.

Senior Xu Qingyang had risked his life to quell a huge hidden danger in the west of Desires Sect.

She bowed deeply: “Thank you, Senior Xu!”

“You can rest assured on this trip; I will definitely escort you to Myriad Swords Sect.”

Before long.

The disciples returned and gathered.

Noticing an old man added to the group, they were quite puzzled.

Jiang Fan also looked confused, vaguely feeling that this old man looked familiar.

But couldn’t place him.

It wasn’t surprising that he didn’t recognize him, Xu Qingyang also didn’t recognize Jiang Fan.

At that time it was night, both sides could only see each other’s outline, not the details.

“I am a friend of your Elder Ling, happened to meet you, and will be accompanying you for a while.” Xu Qingyang looked around and said with a smile.

Meeting a friend in the wilderness?

Jiang Fan was skeptical.

However, this wasn’t important.

Though this friend of Elder Ling seemed seriously injured.

“Senior, do you not have any healing pills?”

Jiang Fan noticed the blood still seeping from the other’s chest.

Xu Qingyang didn’t hide it: “The thing that injured me is very poisonous. Without removing the poison, healing pills are useless.”

Jiang Fan nodded: “I know a bit about medical skills.”

“If you don’t mind, I can help remove the poison.”

Xu Qingyang hesitated.

The poison of the Sky-Devouring Tiger was notoriously troublesome, and only the Undying Doctor had been able to cure it.

Now, even if his disciple Shangguan Sheng personally tried, he might not be able to remove it.

How could this young man in front of him manage?

But thinking further, even if he couldn’t remove the poison, simply treating the wound would be good.

“Alright, treat it on the carriage.” He just wanted to return to the sect quickly, use the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Treasures to suppress the poison.

And then seek a chance to detoxify it.

Otherwise, he would die from the poison.

Ling Jinghu was a bit worried: “Do you really know medical skills?”

The person in front of him was none other than Xu Qingyang, one of the top three super experts in the Nine-Sect Land!

If any mistakes were made during treatment, how could they bear the consequences?

Jiang Fan said: “Simply removing the poison should not be a problem.”

After speaking, he jumped onto the carriage.

At this point, Xu Qingyang had already unbuttoned his chest.

Jiang Fan looked and was shocked.

A claw mark stretched across the chest, the wound smooth as a mirror.

“What a fierce creature, its claws are sharper than divine weapons.”

Even with a High Grade Magical Artifact, Jiang Fan wasn’t sure he could cut out such a smooth wound.

The demon beast that attacked the elder must have incredibly sharp claws.

“Moreover, the poison is quite extraordinary.” Jiang Fan took out a piece of jade and touched the wound.

As a result, the jade emitted hissing sounds.

It was being corroded!

Logically, such strong poison should have killed him instantly.

This old man managed to hold on until now.

Xu Qingyang said gently: “Just help me bandage the wound.”

“It’s normal if you can’t cure it.”

“Don’t push yourself.”

Jiang Fan quietly took out the Blue Flame Silver Needle, saying:

“It might hurt a bit later; bear with it.”

Xu Qingyang smiled wryly.

Such a stubborn young man.

Unfortunately, stubbornness alone couldn’t cure this poison.

“No need, just bandage it…”

“Wait!”

Xu Qingyang suddenly sat up, eyes staring intently at the silver needle in Jiang Fan’s hand.

With a surprised and questioning look.

“Why do you have the Undying Doctor’s silver needle?”
