The martial artist who treated Liu Lian was Xiao Budian from the Heavenly Demon Cult, an eight-year-old freak.
Unfortunately, Xiao Budian did not succeed either.
In her opinion, Ling Xiao had even less of a chance of success.
However, Liu Lian did not say this out loud. She was afraid that it would dampen Ling Xiao's enthusiasm.
"Haha, Miss Liu, you don't seem to have much confidence?"
Liu Lian did not know that her expression could not be hidden from Ling Xiao's Taichi Eyes.
"If the patient has no confidence in being cured, what else can I do?"
Ling Xiao spread his hands and said calmly.
"Young hero Ling, have you heard of the Heavenly Demon Gu Poison?"
Liu Lian did not answer Ling Xiao's question. Instead, she asked another question.
"No."
Ling Xiao said calmly.
"That's right. The Heavenly Demon Gu Poison is the Heavenly Demon Gu Poison that the Heavenly Demon Cult developed using real Heavenly Demons. The Sun Family paid a huge price to get their hands on it, but they used it on me."
Liu Lian sighed.
"You know what happened behind the scenes?"
Ling Xiao was a little surprised. This girl was not as ignorant as she seemed.
"Of course I know. The one who used the gu on me was the First Elder! He wanted to curry favor with Sun Wushuang from the Sun Family because Sun Wushuang is a genius, a genius even more powerful than Sun Wuji.
He is already at the 7th level of the Yin-Yang Realm in his early twenties. His future is limitless.
In addition, the Sun Family is good at using poison and has a close relationship with the royal family. If he curried favor with them, the First Elder's status in the Liu Family would be even more respected. "
Liu Lian's lips trembled as she spoke. It was obvious that she had suffered too much in her heart. She just had no one to talk to.
"But he is not as good as you."
Ling Xiao said calmly.
"Yes, Sun Wushuang is not as good as me. However, I am the only one in the Liu Family. The Sun Family has many geniuses in the military and the royal family. Moreover, Sun Wushuang and Sun Wuji are both disciples of the Tianhai Saint Court."
Liu Lian sighed and said, "You know that my father had to compromise and agree to Sun Wushuang's marriage to save me."
"Why did he insist on marrying you?"
Ling Xiao asked curiously, "You're going through so much trouble, it can't be just to support that Great Elder, right?"
"My physique is rather special. When I was young, I accidentally awakened the Yin Yang Fish Martial Spirit. As long as I have the pleasure of fish and water, I can greatly increase my cultivation speed. This is something that Sun Wushuang naturally wishes for."
Liu Lian replied.
"Aren't you afraid that I'll be greedy?"
Ling Xiao smiled.
"Not to mention you, even a beggar would be better than being defiled by Sun Wushuang."
Liu Lian said painfully, "Now you understand. In order to obtain me, the Sun family spared no expense to obtain the Heavenly Devil Gu. It really isn't that easy to get rid of it."
"Hehe, you don't have to think so much. You just have to trust me."
Ling Xiao said with a smile.
"You're still so confident?"
Liu Lian was a little surprised.
"I've always been confident, and I'm not afraid to tell you that I lied to your father just now. I'm 100% confident that I can cure you, not 30%!"
Ling Xiao said indifferently, "What Heavenly Devil Gu? I'm a real Heavenly Devil!"
As his voice fell, Ling Xiao suddenly transformed into a Heavenly Devil.
The terrifying and ferocious Heavenly Devil faced Liu Lian, scaring her so much that she almost screamed.
"Hehe, you're not bad. You actually didn't scream. Looks like you're indeed a promising talent."
A slightly rough voice came from the mouth of the Heavenly Devil Incarnation, "Are you confident now?"
"Yes!"
Liu Lian's voice trembled.
She thought of many possibilities, but she didn't know that Ling Xiao actually had such a terrifying identity.
"Good, it's good that you're confident. How can a mere Heavenly Devil Gu defeat me, a real Heavenly Devil!"
Ling Xiao sneered. A terrifying aura was released and entered Liu Lian's body.
At that moment, Liu Lian felt extreme fear, but there was also a strange sense of security.
"Don't be afraid. If I wanted to harm you, I wouldn't have waited until now."
Ling Xiao said indifferently.
"I'm not afraid."
Liu Lian shook her head. She endured the immense fear and the tearing pain in her body. She gritted her teeth and endured it.
"You don't have to endure it. You can scream out loud. That way, you'll feel more comfortable."
Ling Xiao said, "Anyway, this is a secret room. I just did some tricks, so no sound will be transmitted out."
Liu Lian screamed at this moment.
The ear-piercing scream could alleviate the pain in her body, but it was still unbearable.
But she had to endure it.
Only by enduring this would she be able to recover and have a future to speak of.
Otherwise, her cultivation would continuously regress and she would eventually become Sun Wushuang's plaything.
In the secret room, a woman's cries and gasps intertwined, making it seem somewhat charming.
Fortunately, the people outside couldn't hear it. Otherwise, who knew what was going on inside.
Ling Xiao was very satisfied with Liu Lian's performance. He knew that Liu Lian was enduring immense pain. It was really not easy for her to endure it.
… …
"Bastard, this kid actually blocked the peeping bugs in the secret room!"
In the main hall, the Grand Elder roared furiously.
It turned out that there were peeping bugs the size of ants in the secret room. They could see what was going on inside from the outside.
However, after Ling Xiao entered, not only was the secret room's door sealed, but the peeping bugs inside were also killed.
Naturally, he was furious.
"Liu Cheng, did you see that? This is what you've done. Your daughter might be sullied by that bastard inside."
The Grand Elder roared.
"Grand Elder, you've gone too far."
Liu Cheng's expression was gloomy. "Are you trying to sully my daughter's reputation? Some words can't be spoken carelessly. "
"Spoken carelessly? Do you really believe that trash who's only at the fourth level of the Yin Yang Realm can cure your daughter? What a fool's dream! "
The Grand Elder said disdainfully.
"Why can't I believe him?"
Liu Cheng said coldly, "That person is Ji Luoyu's friend and was recommended by Ji Luoyu. Naturally, he has some ability. What's wrong with letting him try?
Are you afraid that my daughter will be cured? "
"What do you mean?"
The Grand Elder frowned and said, "Do you think that I don't want Lian 'er to recover?"
"Haha, Grand Elder, you know what I mean. There's no need for me to spell it out."
Although Liu Cheng said that, he was actually very worried.
After all, that was his own daughter. If she was sullied by a stranger, he would be blamed.
"Hmph, Liu Cheng, just wait to make a fool of yourself. Lian 'er is poisoned by the Heavenly Demon Vermin. Other than the Heavenly Demon Sect's Vermin, no one can save her, not even the Medicine King Sun Sa!"
The Grand Elder suddenly snorted coldly.
This was also his truest thought.
When the Heavenly Demon Sect's Xiao Budian tried to save Liu Lian, he was still worried. After all, that kid was a freak. He was only eight years old but had a terrifying cultivation base. He surpassed many martial artists and was one of the Seven Small Saints of Tianhai.
However, that Xiao Budian also failed. What was there to be afraid of?
