The things that Xiao Yun took out completely shocked the Tie family’s people, and barely anyone doubted his abilities anymore. Could a person from a normal family obtain the Cloudsea Merchant Alliance’s VIP Medallion? Could a person from a normal family have so many medicinal pills?

Only the large families with Essence Core realm experts would be able to develop such a genius.

“Are you really going to give these medicinal pills to us?” The Tie family's Second Patriarch held the bottle of medicinal pills, feeling at a loss as to what to do. These sorts of medicinal pills were things that an Innate realm cultivator could only desire, but not possess. How could he give them away so easily?

“Mm,” Xiao Yun nodded as he said, “Remember, if the Cloudsea Merchant Alliance asks about me, don’t say too much. Just tell them that if they can gather these medicinal ingredients, I’ll send even better medicinal pills over in future. That way, they’ll definitely gather the medicinal ingredients and send them as soon as possible.

“Yes, yes.” Hearing Xiao Yun’s words, even the iron-blooded Second Patriarch trembled, and his tone became even more respectful. From the sound of it, the youth had things that were even more valuable than Congealing Qi Pills – it seemed that this youth’s background truly wasn’t ordinary at all! How could they dare to slight such a character?

It would already be quite incredible for someone to have one or two medicinal pills, so how could they not be dismayed at Xiao Yun casually taking out a bottle of medicinal pills? Beside them, Tie Rong’Er was also complete dumbfounded.

“Who would have thought that young master Xiao Yun would have such an extraordinary background.” Thinking to there, she felt a strange bitterness within her. “No wonder why he doesn’t lust over me like all those other people. I’m sure he has plenty of beauties around him all the time.”

“Ai,” Tie Rong’Er shook her head as she muttered to herself, “To be able to meet him is already a blessing to our Tie family. What use is there in thinking so much?”

“You can all go out now,” Xiao Yun said. “I’ll help young master Tie Yan extract some of his poison and stabilise it.”

“Yes.” Hearing this, everyone hurriedly left the room, not daring to disobey the youth’s words.

Following this, only Xiao Yun and Tie Yan remained in the room. Xiao Yun let out his Martial Spirit and pressed it against Tie Yan’s palm to extract the poison within his body. This process was quite slow, and because Tie Yan had breathed in the poison from his nose, extracting the poison from his palm was not as efficient.

Furthermore, Tie Yan was unconscious, so it was difficult for him to cooperate with Xiao Yun. Luckily Xiao Yun’s Martial Spirit had some sort of intelligence and could absorb all Essence Qi in the heavens and the earth, even if it was poison.

It was only after about two hours that Tie Yan’s condition started to get better. After four hours, he began to wake up. Seeing this, Xiao Yun did not continue to help him extract poison, but instead called the Tie family’s people.

After hearing that Tie Yan had woken up, all of the Tie family’s people looked incredibly excited. This was not only because Tie Yan could be saved, but because this had given all of them hope. With Xiao Yun present, the Tie family would not perish. The elders all wept as they pulled on the Tie family's Second Patriarch, crying out, “Old Second, you’ve saved our Tie family!”

“Hahaha, for you to find such a saviour, it looks like the heavens don’t want our Tie family to be destroyed!” Everyone looked incredibly excited and started to express their gratitude towards Xiao Yun. They were now filled with awe and respect towards this youth, and no longer looked down on him or doubted him.

“I’ve stabilised your son’s poison, but I need those medicinal ingredients to help him completely get rid of it,” Xiao Yun said.

“Haha, don’t worry, young master Xiao. I just went to the the Cloudsea Merchant Alliance, and after hearing what you said, they immediately agreed to gather the medicinal ingredients for us. I’m sure that they’ll have some news in 3 days,” the Tie family's Second Patriarch said excitedly. Things had gone even better than he had expected.

“In 3 days?” Xiao Yun frowned.

“Mm,” the Tie family's Second Patriarch nodded. “There were some medicinal ingredients that they did not have enough of and they needed some time to gather them.”

“We’ll just have to wait them,” Xiao Yun said, “But if the Qi family attack within 3 days, things will be problematic. How about this – today, I’ll help the family leader extract some of his poison. That way, even if you’re not fully healed, you’ll still be able to fight.”

“That would be for the best.” After hearing this, the Eldest Patriarch nodded. If he could recover a little, even if the Qi family attacked, they would not be able to wipe them out. He would at least be able to put up a struggle, and might even take someone down with him.

“Will young master Xiao be able to handle it?” the Tie family’s Eldest Patriarch asked.

“I should be fine,” Xiao Yun said. This wasn’t just for the Tie family, but for himself as well. If the Qi family immediately attacked, without enough True Essence realm experts, the consequences could be quite dire!

The Eldest Patriarch did not say anything further and cooperated with Xiao Yun to have his poison extracted.

The extraction process was much smoother this time because the Eldest Patriarch could still circulate his Essence Qi to force the poison into one area. As such, it did not take Xiao Yun much effort to use his Martial Spirit to extract the poison. Despite this, after extracting poison for 2 people, Xiao Yun felt quite exhausted.

Two hours later, Xiao Yun found that the poison within the Eldest Patriarch’s body would not pose much of a problem anymore and finally stopped.

“Haha, young master Xiao is indeed quite amazing. I’m now able to fully suppress this poison and I’ll be able to put up a good fight against even a cultivator at the late stage of the True Essence realm. Now, we’ll just wait for those medicinal ingredients.” The Tie family’s Eldest Patriarch was quite excited and as the poison was extracted, he found that the could freely circulate the True Essence within his relaxed body again.

“Do not reveal this under any circumstances, otherwise, the Qi family will definitely come to attack and things will become troublesome,” Xiao Yun said seriously. “If you don’t have the power to destroy your enemy, anything you do or say will be too early. After all, I can’t stay with your Tie family forever.”

“Of course, of course. We’ll definitely keep this information a secret,” the Eldest Patriarch agreed.

“Alright,” Xiao Yun said, “I’m going to go and rest then.”

“Rong’Er, take Xiao Yun to have a rest,” the Eldest Patriarch spoke courteously as he gestured towards his daughter.

“Mm.” Tie Rong’Er looked exceptionally lovely with a jade-like face and incredibly tender skin, and her cheeks were slightly red as she came over. As she walked, her snake-like hips would sway to the sides, looking incredibly enchanting.

“This way please, young master Xiao Yun.” Within the young woman’s gaze, there was a hint of gratitude, as well as adoration. In just a few hours, he had saved two of the people closest to her. Now, he seemed more like a god than a man.

Following this, Xiao Yun came with Tie Rong’Er to a small, peaceful courtyard.

“Once again, thank you young master Xiao Yun for saving my relatives. Rong’Er will forever remember this kindness that you have shown to us.” Tie Rong’Er brought Xiao Yun to an elegant room. She stopped walking and her eyelashes fluttered as she looked at the youth.

“Haha, it’s nothing,” Xiao Yun shrugged as he smiled. After all, he had done all of that for himself. If it wasn’t for the Skyfire Medallion, he wouldn’t have entered the city.

Of course, he felt some goodwill towards the Tie family, otherwise, he wouldn’t have trusted them.

“If young master Xiao Yun needs anything, then please let us know.” Seeing how calm and indifferent Xiao Yun seemed, Tie Rong’Er looked a bit hurt. She bit her lips, and was about to say something, but decided to swallow her words.

 “Come and immediately tell me once those medicinal ingredients have been gathered.”

“Okay,” Tie Rong’Er replied with a slight hint of disappointment in her eyes as she left.

“Ai,” Tie Rong’Er sighed. The youth had talked calmly with her about serious matters, which made her feel a little disappointed. “Perhaps I’m not enough to catch his eye.” Following this, Tie Rong’Er walked away from Xiao Yun’s room.

Afterwards, Xiao Yun entered the room and started to use his Martial Spirit to neutralise the poison. After absorbing so much poison, he had to quickly neutralise it, or it would affect his mind. That was why he did not have the time to talk to Tie Rong’Er about much.

After looking closely, he found that there were some faint, blank veins on the Martial Spirit’s jade-green branch – this was the poison that the Martial Spirit had extracted.

This poison was not ordinary at all – once it entered a normal cultivator’s body, they would surely die if it broke out. However, for Xiao Yun, who could even extract and neutralise Yan Shi Fei’s poison, this was of little concern. As the Martial Spirit’s light flashed, the black poison was slowly neutralised.

After neutralising that poison, the Martial Spirit shone with a jade-green light, as if it had just eaten a big meal.

“Could it be that my Martial Spirit’s about to develop again?” Xiao Yun reached out with his senses and found that his Martial Spirit was slowly transforming. The light on the branch looked like a multicoloured sunset, yet also like a fog, which gathered at the top of the Martial Spirit. This scene caused Xiao Yun to feel at a loss.

There was no special grading or ranking system for his Martial Spirit, but Xiao Yun could sense the changes in his Martial Spirit each time it became stronger. To him, these sorts of changes were rare increases to his strength.

The jade-green light seemed like a floating mist, and Xiao Yun tried to connect his mind with the Martial Spirit to see if he could control it.

After linking his mind to the Martial Spirit, the Martial Spirit gave a buzz, as if it could tell that Xiao Yun was helping it slowly condense the jade-green mist. There seemed to be changes within the light as Xiao Yun’s mind slowly fused with the mist. From this, Xiao Yun could subtly feel that the connection between him and his Martial Spirit had become stronger.

Night fell, and Xiao Yun lost track of time as he gathered the originally dispersed mist into a ring of light. Upon closer inspection, it looked like a godly halo.

The instant the ring of light’s shape was formed, Xiao Yun could feel that his entire Martial Spirit’s aura had become more powerful. Within his sea of consciousness, the Martial Spirit’s jade-green branch had once again become thicker and its 3 sub-branches swayed, giving off radiant light. It looked like a willow blowing in the wind, but also had a divine feel to it. Now that it had a jade-green ring of light hovering above it, it looked like a divine plant from the distance.

Feeling these changes, Xiao Yun was incredibly curious and felt quite a bit of anticipation towards the Martial Spirit’s future development.

After this, Xiao Yun’s mind left his sea of consciousness. He opened his eyes and deeply breathed in, with a relaxed expression on his face.

However, after breathing in, his eyebrows furrowed, feeling that something was off.

“The air seems to be quite strange,” Xiao Yun thought with an alert look on his face as he started to feel a bit dizzy.

“There’s poison?” Xiao Yun’s heart raced as he hurriedly started to use his Martial Spirit to absorb the poison that he had inhaled. However, he found that he could not neutralise the poison within him and felt a fire start to burn within his body.

An extremely strong desire rushed into his mind, making him feeling as if his body was burning and that he needed to find a release.

Kacha!

At this moment, the door was opened as a young woman wearing a thin muslin dress slowly walked into Xiao Yun’s room.

“Tie Rong’Er?” Hearing the door open, Xiao Yun sent out his spirit energy and found that it was Tie Rong’Er.
