"You..."
Hearing this, Ye Tongyuan, who was standing nearby, also frowned.
"Did I say something wrong?"
Qin Ning smiled and said, "From the very beginning, you said you could use the Heavenly Fire Spirit Crystal to cure this lady's cold poison, but what was the result? Now you want to use a fifth-grade spirit pill, the Blazing Jade Pill, to suppress the cold poison?"
"What do you know? What does a stinking brat whose wings haven't even fully grown know?"
"The Nine Nether Scorpion's poison is extremely violent, and the cold poison that penetrates the body is very difficult to remove. Only the Heavenly Fire Spirit Crystal can dispel it, because the fire energy of the Heavenly Fire Spirit Crystal is also extremely violent!"
"These two things neutralize each other, perfectly canceling each other out."
"The problem wasn't caused by this venerable one, but because a change occurred within Madam Ye's body..."
"A change occurred?"
Qin Ning sneered, "Is it because the five organs in her body produced a yin-yang vortex, and the yin-yang qi was poorly regulated, so once the madam's actions or mood are affected, the toxins will flare up?"
Hearing this, Ye Yuanyuan's eyes flickered.
She had never told Qin Ning these things.
"So what?"
"Foolish."
Qin Ning cursed him directly, "What do you know? The reason is that Madam Ye's internal power is not strong enough, and the Heavenly Fire Spirit Crystal and the Nine Nether Scorpion's poison are two extremely violent energies. It's true that they can cancel each other out, but you didn't consider the limits that the human body can withstand, you foolish old man!"
"You're cursing me?"
"So what if I curse you?"
Qin Ning continued, "You still think the Blazing Jade Pill can suppress the cold poison?"
"Of course it can!"
"Forget it."
Qin Ning continued, "You are, after all, a third-grade spirit alchemist. You should know that the efficacy of the Blazing Jade Pill can only force out the potential within Madam Ye's body to suppress the cold poison, but this method of suppression will once again reduce Madam Ye's lifespan and deplete her bodily foundation."
"Grandmaster Chu Fangzheng, don't you know this?"
"Nonsense!"
Seeing the displeased expressions of Ye Tongyuan and Ye Yuanyuan, Chu Fangzheng felt a pang of guilt and suddenly shouted, "These are all baseless claims."
"Clan Head Ye, you don't believe this venerable one, a third-grade spirit alchemist, yet you would believe this stinking brat's nonsense?"
"Young Master Qin's words cannot be trusted, so I wonder if this old man's words can be trusted?"
A hearty laugh rang out, startling everyone present.
Outside the door, a group of people was approaching.
The person leading them was Grandmaster Jiang Rong.
"Grandmaster Jiang Rong!"
Seeing the newcomer, Ye Tongyuan was startled.
Although Jiang Rong did not reside in the Beiming Empire year-round, Ye Tongyuan still remembered his face. That year, the two had met once.
"You know me?" Jiang Rong looked at Ye Tongyuan in surprise.
"Grandmaster Jiang, we once had the good fortune of meeting, precisely when Grandmaster Jiang was promoted to a seventh-grade spirit alchemist."
Ye Tongyuan seemed a little flustered and said, "It's just that the grandmaster doesn't recognize this humble one."
Jiang Rong!
On the other side, Chu Fangzheng's face also changed.
Jiang Rong was a famous spirit alchemist on the Nine Nether Continent, a seventh-grade spirit alchemist. Compared to him, a third-grade spirit alchemist, his strength was immeasurably far superior!
The two were not on the same level at all.
Their cultivation levels and realms were completely incomparable.
Jiang Rong looked at Qin Ning, smiled faintly, and said, "Forgive this old man for interrupting. Is this Grandmaster Chu Fangzheng? The Nine Nether Scorpion Poison itself has extremely deep cold properties, while the Heavenly Fire Spirit Crystal has extremely vigorous fire energy. If the two neutralize each other, they can indeed cancel each other out!"
"But you must also consider this lady's physique. A martial artist at the fourth level of the Spirit Sea Realm fundamentally cannot withstand the extreme suppression of those two violent energies!"
"It seems to me that you've thought about this too simply."
Hearing this, Chu Fangzheng's expression became extremely unsightly.
"Furthermore, as Young Master Qin just said, the Blazing Jade Pill can suppress the cold poison, but this method of suppression only consumes the lady's lifespan. The ultimate result is hard to escape death."
As soon as these words were spoken, Ye Tongyuan trembled with anger.
"Chu Fangzheng, are you trying to harm my wife?" Ye Tongyuan's aura burst forth, and the powerful suppressive force of the Spirit Soul Realm erupted.
"I, I, I..."
Chu Fangzheng was anxious and quickly said, "This has nothing to do with me!"
"Even Grandmaster Jiang Rong cannot resolve the Nine Nether Scorpion Poison. I only wanted to neutralize it with the Heavenly Fire Spirit Crystal, which would help the lady live longer for a period of time."
Hearing this, Ye Tongyuan looked at Jiang Rong.
Jiang Rong also nodded solemnly and said, "Even if I am a seventh-grade spirit pill master, unless the lady has surpassed the Spirit Soul Realm, otherwise..."
As soon as these words were spoken, Ye Tongyuan's eyes became dim.
If even Grandmaster Jiang Rong said so, then...
"Patriarch Ye, you see, even Grandmaster Jiang Rong has no solution. I have already done my best!"
Chu Fangzheng let out a breath.
"Who said there's no solution?"
Qin Ning suddenly spoke at this moment.
Hearing these words, Chu Fangzheng glanced at Qin Ning, snorted, and said, "Even Grandmaster Jiang Rong said there's no solution, so you have a solution?"
"You stinking brat, are you perhaps even more formidable than Grandmaster Jiang Rong?"
"Can you shut your noisy mouth?" Qin Ning completely ignored Chu Fangzheng.
This person completely disregarded whether the person he was treating lived or died. Moreover, even if it was to neutralize the poison and prolong life, there was no need to use the Heavenly Fire Spirit Crystal.
Looking at Qin Ning, Jiang Rong suddenly said solemnly, "That's right, this old man may not have a solution, but Young Master Qin might!"
As these words were spoken, everyone present was stunned.
Who was Jiang Rong?
A renowned seventh-grade spirit pill master actually said such a thing himself?
As the patriarch of the Ye family, Ye Tongyuan naturally had access to a lot of information. It seemed that Jiang Rong truly trusted Qin Ning?
His daughter had previously said that Qin Ning's pill refining techniques were unfathomable, and now Grandmaster Jiang Rong also said so. It seemed to be true.
"Alright!"
Chu Fangzheng suddenly said, "Since you have a solution, then quickly cure Lady Ye's illness. Don't pretend to be profound here anymore!"
"Whether I cure it or not, what does it have to do with you?"
Qin Ning waved his hand and said, "Since you have no solution, then don't stand here getting in the way!"
Hearing this, Chu Fangzheng was so angry he felt like his lungs would burst.
As a third-grade spirit pill master, in Beiming City, he was revered as a grandmaster wherever he went.
But this brat Qin Ning completely disregarded him.
He must have eaten the guts of a tiger!
"Hmph, if you can cure Madam Ye, I will kneel and honor you as Grandmaster Qin!"
"But if you can't cure her, then you must serve me, Chu Fangzheng, for the rest of your life!"
Hearing this, Qin Ning slowly smiled.
This person wanted to save face, but little did he know he was setting himself up, eager for a beating. It seemed he couldn't hold back any longer!
"Alright!"
Qin Ning chuckled softly, "Seeing how eager you are to kneel at my feet, I, Qin Ning, will agree to your terms!"
