Chapter 8: Suffering Losses (Part 2)
The second update, and there will be at least three more updates after this!
————————————————————————————
Lingling Xiānzǐ pretended to be shocked, got up and helped Yì Fēng onto a chair, saying: "Oh dear! How can this be good?! This tea is made from 500-year-old Míngxiāng leaves, with dense spiritual energy. Even I usually only dare to drink two cups at most, but you actually drank the whole pot clean! With your physique, how can you withstand it?!"
Yi Feng felt bitter in his heart, which clearly indicated that Ling Ling had planned this for him. Otherwise, when she came to him herself, she could have warned him not to drink too much, but instead, after the fact, she acted as if she were Zhuge Liang, which made Yi Feng secretly resent Ling Ling for not being a good person.
But the tea had already entered his belly, and the spiritual energy had also penetrated into every part of his body. Even if his intestines turned green with regret, it would be useless now. At this moment, only Lingling, who had long calculated everything, could save him. Yifeng could only pretend to look pitiful and humbly say: "Immortal maiden is wise, please don't abandon me! If you save my life, I will serve you as a cow or horse for the rest of my life!"
Looking at Yi Feng's small face that was almost twisted, Ling Ling coldly laughed again and secretly thought that a beggar is just a beggar, without any backbone, and can't even withstand some setbacks. These spiritual teas were originally used by the disciples who had just entered her sect to temper their meridians, and after drinking them, their entire body's meridians would be violently torn apart by the spiritual energy, causing extreme pain! When she first entered the sect, she almost drank this tea every day, and it wasn't considered a rare spiritual product in the cultivation world, but rather very ordinary.
Let this kid suffer a bit more first, then I'll make my request, and he's sure to agree readily.
Yi Feng saw that Ling Ling had not moved for half a day, and there was no intention of lending a hand at all. He couldn't help but silently curse Ling Ling's entire family, to the point where he almost wanted to get up and strangle him to death.
The situation is stronger than people, when it's time to bow down and raise your head, it's pretending to be forced. Yi Feng deeply understands this principle, so he makes his appearance even more miserable, with a crying tone: "Immortal girl, immortal girl, I'm going to die... As long as you save me, I can agree to any condition, no matter what, even if it means... even if it means dedicating my body to you!"
Wow!!!
Lingling Xianzi couldn't help but spit out after hearing Yifeng's words. After a brief moment of astonishment, she looked at him with disdain in her eyes, but her tone was very gentle: "If I want to save you, I'll have to use the Huā Líng Dān. By the way, you don't even know what the Huā Líng Dān is, let me explain it to you..."
Ling Ling explained the Spirit Transformation Pill from formula to refining process, and then to the precautions when taking it, talking for nearly an incense stick's time. But Yi Feng had already rolled on the ground! Damn it, if I knew earlier, I wouldn't have come here, thinking I'd encountered a stroke of good luck, but it turned out to be a calamity from heaven!
Jian Yi Feng has been tortured almost to death, and if this continues, someone will likely lose their life. Ling Ling then said: "The price of the Huā Líng Dān is very high, using it on a mortal like you would be a waste, however, I see that you have a jade stone bracelet on your wrist, which seems to have some value. I'll exchange this Huā Líng Dān with you for it. This way, you can alleviate your suffering, and I can get some compensation. What do you say?"
Yi Feng nodded repeatedly like a little chicken pecking at rice, quickly pulling off the bracelet he had picked up from Bei Ming Temple and handing it to Ling's jade hand, saying hastily: "This is very good, this is very good!"
Satisfied, Ling nodded and took the bracelet from him. At the same time, she stuffed a black pill with a strong fishy smell into Yi Feng's mouth, then returned to bed, silently observing the jade bracelet in her hand.
What Lingling said was actually a demonic pill, also the most feared poison among Orthodox cultivators. As long as one took a single pill, any cultivator whose cultivation had not reached the Yuan Ying stage would have their entire body's power completely destroyed.
However, Yifeng was originally an ordinary person, and there was no profound power in his body. The Huā Líng Dān would only devour the spiritual energy that had just entered Yifeng's body from the tea water, and would not bring much harm to Yifeng.
At most, it's just that from now on, Yi Feng will have no chance of becoming an immortal, and his lifespan will also be greatly reduced. However, these are not things that Lingling would consider! On the surface, she is kind-hearted and gentle-faced, but in reality, like all cultivators, she will stop at nothing to get what she wants!
When the Huā Líng Dān removed those spiritual powers, the pain on Yì Fēng's body suddenly disappeared, and a feeling of surviving a disaster naturally arose in Yì Fēng's heart! Although his life was saved, the clever Yì Fēng naturally knew that he had been calculated, and also knew that the jade bangle was worth Líng Xīng's despicable actions, and its function must be extraordinary.
Goodbye Lingling At this time, the joy that was hard to conceal on her face made Yifeng even more certain of his own thoughts.
This loss, I acknowledge today. You little rascal, don't ever offend me again, or else I'll strip you bare and throw you onto the streets, let those stinky beggars...
