Chapter 522 - 182: Bitter Schemes for Her Husband
"Joyful Jade Dragon Pill?"
"What kind of Evil Pill is this?"
Someone wondered, and amidst the pink and blood-red mist, Liu Su’s voice echoed:
"This pill is as well-known as the Joyful Water Dragon Pill!"
"The effects of the Water Dragon Pill are self-explanatory, no need to elaborate."
"But this Joyful Jade Dragon Pill is even more tyrannical; if its power invades the Spirit Field, at best, one must engage in Dual Cultivation several times to break it, and at worst, the cultivation is completely ruined, turning women into debased creatures and men into lecherous demons!"
Everyone turned pale: "Is it really this vicious?!"
Su Xin continued: "The pink mist is the Joyful Jade Dragon Pill, the blood-red mist should be the Locking Essence Pill, which can seal our cultivation!"
Now everyone was in a panic; it’s one potent aphrodisiac after another sealing their cultivation, leaving them no way out!
Qin Gengyun loudly said, "This mist covers a wide area, but also weakens the pill’s power in another way. Everyone, start channeling your cultivation technique immediately, you should be able to expel the pill’s power!"
Liu Su added, "Remember, don’t move recklessly; the Jade Dragon Pill is tyrannical, the more you move, the faster the effect will take hold!"
Hearing this, everyone dared not delay any further and hurriedly sat down to circulate their Spiritual Power.
Su Xin, Jian Yue, Chun Ningzhi, Wei Wan, and other Commanding Disciples each raised their Magical Artifacts to disperse the Jade Dragon Pill mist engulfing the valley.
Then they, too, sat down to circulate their cultivation technique to expel the poison.
All of their expressions were grave; right now, no one had any resistance left. If the enemy suddenly attacked, they would all be like fish on a chopping board!
Now, only those few Commanding Disciples with the highest cultivation could quickly expel the powers of the Jade Dragon Pill and Locking Essence Pill to restore combat power and stay undefeated.
However, just as everyone settled down, a burst of arrogant laughter came from the front:
"Little ones, Fairies have graced the Joyful Union Sect, we must entertain them well!"
This was followed by a unified shout from over a hundred people:
"We respectfully invite all the Fairies to rise!"
"We respectfully invite all the Fairies to rise!"
Poof!
Several female disciples heard such shameful words and their blood churned, unable to stop themselves from spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Others also turned deathly pale, watching helplessly as hundreds of people from the Joyful Union Sect rushed toward them.
Yet at that moment, they were struggling to circulate their cultivation technique to fight against the toxic pills. If they interrupted their technique to stand up and fight, the power of the Jade Dragon Pill would immediately invade their Spirit Field.
At that time, they would be doomed.
But if they surrendered now, the Joyful Union Sect would definitely use countless secret techniques to torment them, and the outcome would be the same in the end.
They were at an impasse, caught between a rock and a hard place!
Su Xin gritted her teeth, intending to stand up, even at the cost of her own downfall, to ensure the safety of her fellow disciples.
Suddenly, a tall and burly figure stood up, standing before all the disciples of the Zhenyang Sect, meeting the oncoming hundreds.
"He Zhiqiu?"
"Junior Brother He, what are you doing?"
"Senior Brother He, don’t move!"
Everyone looked in shock at the figure, only to see him turn back with a calm smile:
"I’ll do my best to stop them, everyone go ahead and expel the poison with peace of mind!"
"Senior Brother He..."
"Junior Brother He..."
Not a few female disciples looked at his resolute face and couldn’t help but shed tears.
Even the male disciples who secretly cursed him as a scoundrel had damp eyes, their hearts trembling.
He Zhiqiu was sacrificing himself to save everyone!
Such righteousness, such courage, no wonder Senior Sister Ye was infatuated with him.
No wonder Fairy Su viewed him differently.
Junior Brother He, it’s only right that you’re involved with three different women!
"Junior Sister Ye, you didn’t misjudge him."
Even Su Xin’s eyes watered as she said to Jian Yue before closing her eyes to focus on expelling the poison.
Zhang Zheng had tears in his fierce eyes: "This is the valiant lad of my Divinity Transformation Peak!"
Chen Yunfeng looked at Qin Gengyun with full admiration and gratitude; from today onwards, Junior Brother He was like a real brother to him!
Even Chun Ningzhi looked in a daze at Qin Gengyun’s tall figure, feeling inadequate; now he understood why Junior Sister Ye liked him.
"Fellow disciples, this farewell, may you find your path to the heavens!"
Qin Gengyun’s expression was steadfast, his voice impassioned, a picture of heroic sacrifice!
The disciples of the Zhenyang Sect were moved to tears, clenching their fists tightly.
"Brother! Don’t die! Wuuu!"
Liu Su cried out, eyes red, then secretly transmitted, "Brother-in-law, your acting is so good; I’m moved."
When the pink mist first appeared, Qin Gengyun, an Alchemist, immediately recognized it as the Joyful Jade Dragon Pill.
After all, it was he who once sabotaged Ye Xiyue with the Joyful Water Dragon Pill.
If he had enough materials, he could also concoct this Jade Dragon Pill.
Before setting out for the South Demon territory, Qiu Zhihe had briefed him on the situation of various sects.
Qin Gengyun had prepared plenty of antidote pills.
Among them was a Spirit Pill that could counteract the poison of the Joyful Union.
It was just that he hadn’t expected everyone else to be poisoned; he only had four antidote pills prepared.
One for himself, Qiu Zhihe, Liu Su, and Mo Xiaolan each.
As soon as the toxic mist appeared, Qin Gengyun secretly gave the antidote pills to the three women, while he took one himself.
However, the blood-red mist of the Locking Essence Pill was quite peculiar; neither Qin Gengyun nor Qiu Zhihe had any cure for it, so they could only rely on their cultivation techniques to handle it.
Qin Gengyun, being a Body Cultivator, had a strong physique and could rely on brute force to fight the enemy, as long as the poison of the Joyful Water Dragon Pill was neutralized.
But Qiu Zhihe, Liu Su, and Mo Xiaolan needed to channel their cultivation techniques to expel the poison of the Locking Essence Pill in order to effectively fight.
However, He Zhiqiu’s identity was just that of a Body Cultivator, so he naturally couldn’t reveal that he was actually an Alchemist.
Therefore, the four of them quietly devised a plan, with Qin Gengyun standing up to face the enemy first, and Qiu Zhihe instructing Qin Gengyun to put on an act of heroic sacrifice to win people’s hearts.
Qiu Zhihe’s words were commands, and Qin Gengyun dared not disobey; thus, the previous tear-jerking performance took place.
It was also Qiu Zhihe’s painstaking effort for her husband.
At this time, Qiu Zhihe sat cross-legged, her eyes closed, and transmitted to Qin Gengyun:
"The Sun and Moon Sect may not be good at Magical Combat, but they have many strange secret techniques. I can break the poison of the Locking Essence Pill in two hundred breaths, don’t overdo it."
"Don’t worry, sweetheart, they can’t hurt me."
Qin Gengyun responded while transmitting and glanced at Junior Sister Ruo with deep affection and reluctance:
"Junior Sister Ruo, we’ll meet again in the next life!"
Qiu Zhihe also cooperated by looking at him: "Senior Brother He, if anything should happen to you, Ruo Mei wouldn’t live on without you!"
Liu Su almost couldn’t hold it in and secretly rolled her eyes.
Mo Xiaolan closed her eyes tightly, her chest heaving violently a few times, clearly struggling to maintain her composure.
At this point, Joyful Union Sect people had charged within several yards, and Qin Gengyun shouted, his muscles swelling as he charged forward.
The ground trembled slightly, emitting a thumping sound.
Joyful Union Sect disciples were momentarily stunned, horrified to see the mountain-like figure charging towards them.
"A Body Cultivator?!"
A voice from the back shouted: "So what if he’s a Body Cultivator? With so many of us, surely we can handle him?"
"That’s right! All together now, kill him!"
Joyful Union Sect was a small sect, with a little over three hundred members all together, and now most of them had come.
Though they weren’t skilled in Magical Combat, their sheer numbers meant they weren’t afraid of facing Qin Gengyun alone.
They each raised their Magical Artifacts—a barrage of knives, spears, swords, halberds, and fists flew towards Qin Gengyun!
Soon, all of these attacks were stopped by Qin Gengyun’s body, making a clanging sound.
"Is this man made of Immortal Iron?"
While they were still in shock, that towering figure, as solid as a mountain of iron, had already charged into the crowd.
Wielding an iron rod, he swept and struck wildly, causing a symphony of screams.
In an instant, over a dozen people were crushed, their bones shattered, flesh and blood blurred.
"Junior Brother He is truly fierce!"
"Senior Brother He is truly manly!"
The disciples of the Zhenyang Sect behind him gazed in awe at the demon-like powerful man, filled with admiration, gratitude, and adoration—every gaze landed on him.
Qiu Zhihe also gazed at Qin Gengyun with a tender expression.
Husband, before I leave, I will surely pave you a path to the heavens.
