Gulp ….. Gulp …..
Mu Qian Fan was forced by the youths to swallow the unknown elixir.
The warm water mixed with the elixir went down his throat and Qiao Chu finally released him.
Mu Qian Fan almost choked to death on the water. He stared gloomily at the group of brutish youths and was just about to say something when he suddenly felt his body being enveloped by a cool and refreshing feeling. The searing pain throughout his body was slowly fading away and the almost maddening pain was slowly fading away.
His eyes widened suddenly as he stared at Jun Xie.
"This elixir ….."
"It can only alleviate the pain." Jun Xie said softly. She was still unable to determine what kind of poison was in Mu Qian Fan's body and she would need to test it out before she would be able to concoct the real antidote.
Mu Qian Fan's eyes were filled with shock. He finally understood why Jun Xie had taken his flesh and blood. The little youth, was preparing to cure him of the poison!
Mu Qian Fan suddenly stood up and bowed deeply to Jun Xie.
"Words cannot express my gratitude! If this wretched life of mine can be spared, this life of mine will be yours in the future! "
Jun Xie did not reply but just looked at Mu Qian Fan expressionlessly.
Mu Qian Fan was filled with gratitude. Jun Xie and the others stood up to leave as they had other things to do.
The Black Jade Stone had been sent back to the inn and when Jun Xie and the others returned, they asked the innkeeper where they could forge iron. After asking for the location, Fan Zhuo hired a horse carriage and headed there, intending to extract the Black Jade Stone as soon as possible. To prevent him from feeling unwell, Rong Ruo accompanied him.
At that moment, in Jun Xie's room, only she, Qiao Chu, Fei Yan and Hua Yao were left.
"Regarding Mu Qian Fan's words, Brother Hua, what do you think?" Fei Yan sat at the table, the usual playful smile on his face replaced with a serious expression.
Hua Yao frowned and said: "I suspect that the Dark Emperor's tomb is at the bottom of the Heaven's End Cliff."
"What do you mean?" Jun Wu Xie asked curiously.
"We have a map in our hands. Little Xie, as you know, we got it from the Qing Yun Clan. Over this period, we have been in the Zephyr Academy's branch division, investigating the whereabouts of the second map as we studied the situation on the first map. During this period, Fei Yan had already dug out the maps of the places that we know of and compared them one by one, but he still could not find any similarities. If you look closely at the map, the terrain is extremely flat and there are no mountains to be seen. Initially, we had thought that it was some kind of flat plains, but after hearing what Mu Qian Fan said, I suspect that the markings on this map are actually the terrain at the bottom of the Heaven's End Cliff. "Hua Yao said, his eyes narrowed.
The Dark Emperor's tomb was in the Lower Realm. That was something they already knew and they had already made sufficient preparations before they got their hands on the map. Fei Yan had been wandering around everywhere, using his powers to map out all the places he had seen, all so that they could find the Dark Emperor's tomb in the shortest time possible after they had gathered the complete map.
But the first map did not overlap with any of the places that Fei Yan had drawn out. They had thought that the map was not complete enough, or that the places marked on the map were places that they had not been to before.
But they had never once thought that it might just be a map of the terrain at the bottom of the cliff.
According to what Mu Qian Fan had said, the area at the bottom of the Heaven's End Cliff was extremely vast and it was covered in a dense fog, making it impossible to explore. He had even brought back the Black Jade Stone that was only found in the Middle Realm.
