Logically speaking, this woman should have died.
She had sold her soul to the devil. Without her soul, how could she not die?
However, Orochimaru had kept her alive and turned her into a creature similar to a "vampire".
"No soul, only an empty shell."
Li Yi finally understood the problem with this woman.
"Do you have a way to treat her?"
Tianbao stared at Li Yi and asked.
Li Yi did not reply. Instead, he narrowed his eyes and asked in his heart, "System, is the Nine Transformations Soul Return Elixir used to revive souls?"
The System's crisp voice rang in his mind, "Replying to the Host. That's right. "
Li Yi opened his eyes.
Without hesitation, he picked up the black pill in his hand and stuffed it into the woman's mouth.
However, the woman screamed and spat out the pill.
Tianbao asked, "What are you trying to do?"
Li Yi said, "Feed her this pill. Even if it can't cure her, it can at least slow down her illness."
Tianbao's eyes lit up when he heard that.
Without hesitation, he picked up the black pill and threw it into the woman's mouth.
Then, he pulled the woman up. He clenched his right hand into a fist and gently punched the woman's back.
He controlled his strength very well. Hence, the woman opened her mouth and the pill rolled into her stomach.
However, the woman was still struggling. It seemed that the pill did not work.
Tianbao stopped the woman from struggling and asked, "Didn't you say that it can slow down her illness? Why is it not working?"
Li Yi rolled his eyes and snappily said, "When the pill enters the stomach, it first needs to be digested. After digesting, it needs to be absorbed. After absorbing, it can enter the five viscera and six bowels. Only then can it be used. How can this process be so fast?"
At the same time, Li Yi asked in his heart, "System, how long will it take for the Nine Transformations Soul Return Elixir to take effect?"
The System replied, "Replying to the Host, it will take about half a minute."
"Half a minute? Thirty seconds? "
Li Yi was stunned.
So fast?
He thought that he would have to wait for at least half a day.
No wonder it was a pill evolved by the System!
It was magical!
At this moment, Celestial Bao asked, "How long will it take for it to take effect …"
However, before he could say the word "use", the Saintess in his arms suddenly stopped struggling.
Her head tilted to the side and her hands drooped down. Her entire body was motionless as if she had fallen asleep.
No, it wasn't as if he was asleep, but as if he was dead!
Because she wasn't breathing!
Celestial Bao's pupils shrank!
He tested the Saintess' breathing.
In an instant, his entire body stiffened.
After an unknown period of time …
Celestial Bao gently placed the Holy Maiden on the bed, then slowly got up with his back facing everyone.
Although his back was facing them, the three of them could feel the murderous aura from Celestial Bao!
The cow immediately ran in front of Li Yi and opened her arms. She lowered her voice and said, "Tianbao, don't be agitated. It's normal for people to grow old and die. You don't want the Saint to continue living like before, do you?"
"A bad life is better than a good death."
Da Li said weakly.
"Shut up!"
The cow roared at Da Li!
Then, she looked at Celestial Bao and said, "Celestial Bao, this is actually a kind of relief for the Saintess …"
However, before the cow finished speaking, Celestial Bao suddenly said, "Shut up."
His voice was extremely hoarse, as if he was crying!
The cow's sharp eyes saw that Celestial Bao's hands were clenched at this moment!
"Damn it!"
The cow's face was extremely heavy. She whispered to Li Yi, "Little brother from Konoha, when I stop Celestial Bao, you take advantage of the chaos and run away quickly. Don't look back!"
Her voice was extremely serious, as if she was talking about life and death!
In fact, Li Yi was also stunned.
Previously, although the Saintess was neither a human nor a ghost, at least she was still breathing.
But now, the Saintess was not even breathing?
Dead?
What was going on?
Was the Nine Transformations Soul Return Pill ineffective?
Or was there no medicine for the problem?
However, if what the cow said was true, the Saintess sold her soul to the devil in order to cast the seal, then her problem was that she had no soul.
Therefore, as long as her soul was brought back, then she would be able to recover.
Logically speaking, the Nine Transformations Soul Return Pill would take effect in half a minute. In other words, the Saintess' soul only needed half a minute to return to her body.
But now, not to mention half a minute, even a minute had passed!
Not only did the Saintess not wake up, but she was also dead?
What exactly went wrong?
Li Yi immediately narrowed his eyes and asked in his heart, "System, does the Nine Transformations Soul Return Pill have no effect on this woman?"
The System replied, "Replying to the host, I don't know."
"You don't know?"
Li Yi's eyes widened.
He thought that the System knew everything in this world. In this world, there was nothing that the System did not know.
Li Yi was about to ask, "Why don't you know?" However, before he could ask, Celestial Bao suddenly turned around and walked quickly toward Li Yi!
Li Yi could feel his murderous aura, which made him shudder!
The cow immediately shouted, "Little brother, run!"
Li Yi's heart skipped a beat.
Suddenly, Da Li stood up abruptly and pressed Li Yi down with lightning speed!
He almost broke Li Yi's arm!
A murderous look flashed across Li Yi's eyes!
This damned Da Li!
If I don't kill him, I'm not human!
At this moment!
With a muffled "boom", Celestial Bao and the cow's fists collided. A ring of visible dust spread out from their fists.
The cow's delicate body trembled and she groaned. Her body involuntarily retreated backward.
However, Celestial Bao stood still on the spot.
With one blow, the winner was decided!
Looking at the trembling cow hugging her arm, Celestial Bao said coldly, "Cow, this is just a lesson. If you dare to stop me again …"
At this point, Celestial Bao took out a handful of kunai. Under the dim candlelight, the kunai reflected a cold light!
The cow's delicate body trembled slightly.
She was afraid.
Celestial Bao had been a ninja before, and he was a quasi-Junin. He was extremely powerful.
She was definitely not his match!
If Celestial Bao really wanted to kill her, then there was nothing she could do!
Celestial Bao took the kunai and walked in front of Li Yi. He said, "You said that you're a medical ninja, but you killed the Saint. A debt must be repaid with money, and a life must be repaid with a life. This is the law of heaven. So, you must leave your life here today."
Hearing this, Li Yi immediately wanted to take out the Jingu Bang!
Did he really think that he was made of clay?!
However, just as Li Yi was about to take out the Godly Sea Steadying Needle, Celestial Bao continued, "However, on account of your sincerity in treating the Saint, I'll give you a chance today. Fight with me. If you can kill me, then you can leave. No one can stop you. However, if you can't kill me, then I'll kill you. "
Da Li's expression changed. "Brother Celestial Bao, you …"
"Shut up."
Celestial Bao ordered coldly, "Let him go."
Da Li did not dare to disobey. He could only obediently let go of Li Yi.
However, in his eyes, there was a flash of jealousy and displeasure!
However, because his head was lowered, no one could see the look in his eyes.
Li Yi stood up straight again and looked at Celestial Bao.
Celestial Bao also stared at Li Yi without letting go.
The two confronted each other …
