At the entrance of the palace.
Everyone stared at Nan Gong Ru and silently shed two streams of tears. They were tears of joy and tears of relief.
They could sense that Nan Gong Ru's curse was gone. It was completely gone!
What did this mean?
It meant Ling Xian's medicine was effective. In other words, the curse that has been tormenting the Nan Gong Clan for thousands of years was finally lifted!
To know that to lift the curse, the Nan Gong Clan had sacrificed countless amounts of resources. However, so many talented people, so many almighty seniors, could not get rid of the curse. They couldn't even recognize the Devious Burial Flower!
Yet before his eyes, not only did Ling Xian recognize the mysterious flower, he also broke the Nan Gong Clan's curse. How powerful was this? Why wouldn't everyone be ecstatic?
"Great, this is great. The Nan Gong Clan can finally get rid of this damned curse!"
"Hahaha, from now on, the Nan Gong Clan will no longer be troubled by the curse. We can train however we want and no longer have to count down the days until we die!"
"Great, this is great. I don't have to die anymore. We don't have to die anymore!"
Everyone was crying tears of joy and dancing around. They were at a point of no return. As completion levelled powerhouses, they were not as talented as Ling Xian. Therefore, they were not young and were about to reach the age of 300.
Especially after seeing the Demon and God Burial Flower, it had aggravated the curse in their bodies, forcefully shaving off twenty years of their lifespan. This also meant that they were one step closer to death.
But now, Ling Xian's medicine had appeared and saved their lives. Why wouldn't they be excited?
All gazes were fixated on Ling Xian. Everyone's eyes were shining with tears and were full of gratitude and desire.
"Come over here." Ling Xian softly grinned and dipped his finger into the medicine. He waited for everyone to walk up.
As soon as his voice trailed off, everyone became excited and walked towards Ling Xian. Then, for the sake of the holy water, they lost their composure as completion leveled powerhouses and began to fight over it like children. They were afraid that they wouldn't be able to lift the curse unless they were the first to get it.
At this, Ling Xian frowned and scolded, "What are you fighting over? There's a basin here, enough for everyone in your Nangong family. "
Hearing this, everyone was enraged. They were completion leveled cultivators, who dared to scold them? However, when they saw that it was Ling Xian who shouted, their anger dissipated and they stopped fighting.
"That's more like it. You are all completion leveled cultivators, yet you are fighting like children. What is this? You have lost face for the completion leveled cultivators, and you have lost face for the Nan Gong Clan. "Ling Xian glared at everyone and scolded them.
"Yes, yes, yes. Master Xian, please calm down. We were wrong."
Everyone present nodded obediently. If it was someone else who dared to reprimand them like this, they would have already attacked. But against Ling Xian, they didn't dare to. They didn't even dare to be disrespectful.
This was because the handsome young man before them not only had the holy water that could lift their curse, but he was also about to become the savior of the entire Nan Gong Family!
Therefore, everyone smiled and looked at Ling Xian pitifully. They did not look like a powerhouse at all.
At this, Ling Xian shook his head helplessly and pointed at the grey-haired elder, "One by one. Senior, you can go first."
"Okay, okay, okay. I will do it now." The grey-haired elder was ecstatic and quickly ran before Ling Xian.
"Endure the pain." Ling Xian spoke softly and pressed his finger between the elder's brows.
What happened next was the same as Nan Gong Ru's. First, he screamed in agony, then the curse inside his body was cleansed.
At this, everyone no longer had any doubts. The way they looked at Ling Xian turned even more heated and expectant.
Then, they marched forward in giant steps and arrived before Ling Xian one by one to accept his treatment. Just like that, after a while, the curse inside the 10 completion leveled cultivators' bodies was finally cleansed.
"Our savior! Master Xian truly is our … no, the entire Nan Gong Clan's savior! "
"Yes, yes. If it wasn't for Master Xian, we would've died before long. The entire Nan Gong Clan would've remained like this! "
"Exactly. To be saved by Master Xian, the Nan Gong Clan sure is lucky!"
Feeling that the curse was gone, everyone cried tears of joy and expressed their gratitude to Ling Xian.
"You are being too polite." Ling Xian grinned, "As long as the Nan Gong Clan agrees to the alliance."
"Haha, Master Xian, do not worry. You saved the Nan Gong Clan, so you are our second parent. Even if we have to climb a mountain of swords or dive into a sea of fire, we won't hesitate! "
"Yes, the alliance is nothing. As long as Master Xian asks, the Nan Gong Clan will not hesitate!"
"That's right, the Nan Gong Clan will not object!"
Everyone chimed in. Their voices were powerful and powerful. It was obvious that they were truly thankful towards Ling Xian. There was nothing fake about it.
This was normal. After all, he lifted the curse inside these people. This was the same as giving them a bright future!
This kindness was bigger than the Heavens!
Therefore, everyone was crying tears of gratitude. They all looked like they were willing to sacrifice their lives for Ling Xian!
Without a doubt, at this moment, all the powerhouses here were extremely grateful towards Ling Xian. Before long, when everyone in the Nan Gong Clan is lifted from their curse, everyone in the Nan Gong Clan will see Ling Xian as their second parent!
"If that's the case, then I thank everyone." Ling Xian smiled in satisfaction, knowing that the Nan Gong Clan had taken care of everything. When the time comes, he only needs to say hello and the Nan Gong Clan will send people to help.
Hearing Ling Xian say the word "thank", everyone lost their composure. Nan Gong Ru waved his hand and said in a hurry, "No, no, no, we should be thanking you. The Nan Gong Clan should be thanking you."
"Alright, it doesn't matter who is thanking who. What matters is that everyone is happy." Ling Xian smiled, very satisfied with this result.
Not only did he gain the Nan Gong Clan's friendship and gratitude, he also completed the alliance. Moreover, he even obtained half of the Demonic Fiendgod Burial Flower and five precious godly medicines. This greatly exceeded his expectations, so how could he not be satisfied?
"That's right. Everyone is happy." Nan Gong Ru's face was full of smiles as he invited, "Master Xian, I have ordered to prepare a small batch of wine. Please accept my invitation."
"I …"
Ling Xian hesitated. Remembering what happened at the Yan Clan's banquet, he couldn't help but to bitterly smile and decline, "I can pass. I like peace and quiet. Leader Nan Gong, please arrange a place for me. I plan on resting here for two days."
"I …" Nan Gong Ru hesitated. But seeing how determined Ling Xian was, he had to comply, "Master Xian, please follow me. I will take you to a place to rest."
As he spoke, he extended his hand and made an inviting gesture before striding forward.
Seeing this, Ling Xian handed over the bowl of medicinal water to the grey-haired elder. Then, under everyone's grateful gaze, he followed Nan Gong Ru.
Just like that, the two of them walked one after the other. After a while, they arrived at a palace on top of a mountain peak.
"Master Xian, what do you think of this place?" Nan Gong Ru smiled. His face was full of respect.
"It's pretty good. I am not a picky person." Ling Xian grinned and waved his hand, gesturing for Nan Gong Ru to leave.
Nan Gong Ru understood and paid his respect, "Okay, then I will leave first. If you need anything, please tell me."
Then, he turned around and left the palace.
Staring at Nan Gong Ru's disappearing silhouette, the corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up. Then, the strange flower appeared before him.
The moment the flower appeared, the atmosphere turned eerie. Waves of black air began to seep out, sending chills down everyone's spine.
"What great luck, what great fortune. I cannot believe that one day, I will be able to acquire such a legendary medicine …" Ling Xian stared at the mysterious black flower, his eyes flashed with heat.
The reason why he didn't leave the Nan Gong Clan right away was because of this Devious Burial Flower. To others, they would think that only the demonic half of the flower remained and that consuming it would result in death without any benefits. But in his eyes, this flower was a priceless treasure!
This was because Ling Xian, through the Essence of Herbalism, knew that the Devious Burial Flower had a third hidden effect other than the two effects it showed.
It was rebirth. No, it was rebirth.
After the half that represented the God was consumed, the half that represented the Devil would turn into a curse. After this curse is completely lifted, the flower will wither. This was the meaning of the phrase "Devious Burial Flower". However, if someone used the correct method when the flower was withering, it would be impossible for them to survive. Then the flower will be reborn and become a new spiritual medicine named the Devious Burial Flower.
This reborn spiritual medicine is completely different from the Devious Burial Flower. However, it is much more powerful and has no downsides. It is a heaven-defying medicine!
However, the conditions for the Devious Burial Flower to be born were far too harsh. Not only does it require the withering Devious Burial Flower, but it also requires someone to use the correct method when it withers. Just how harsh were these conditions?
Don't forget, since the beginning of time, the Devious Burial Flower has only appeared a few times. Its rarity is comparable to a spiritual medicine. Plus, it requires someone to consume it, break the curse, and use the correct method when it withers. This is something that is impossible!
However, the Fiendgod Burial Flower before them just happened to meet all the requirements. Ling Xian also happened to have the method to rebirth it. In other words, he could acquire a heaven-defying medicine, the Devious Burial Flower!
Plus, it could be the first Devious Burial Flower since the beginning of time!
What a wonderful thing to look forward to!
