36: When the poison flares up, Nalan Jie goes to Nalan Jie's door seeking a cure!

It happened in the blink of an eye.

Not long after Jiang Luo and the others disappeared, Xiao Yan also took advantage of the Snake-People Clan's chaos to gradually fade from their sight.

Although his cultivation was not high, he was skilled at escaping. In a short while, he arrived at the city wall he had crossed earlier.

With a flap of his wings, he elegantly leaped over the city wall, and this scene naturally did not escape the watchful eyes of the Snake-People Clan's guards.

So, upon seeing Xiao Yan, a human, an alarm immediately sounded.

"Enemy attack! And a human!"

Soon, Yue Mei and the other Snake-People Clan leaders received the message and rushed over, but by then, Xiao Yan had long vanished without a trace.

Leaving the Holy City, the world outside was vast. Even if the Snake-People Clan sent people to pursue him, it would likely be difficult to catch Xiao Yan.

So when they arrived at the city wall and saw Xiao Yan's disappearing figure, they couldn't help but curse loudly.

This despicable human is simply too deceitful!

...Jiang Luo, relying on his Dou Zong speed, quickly left Xiao Yan far behind.

Since he had obtained the Heavenly Flame, there was nothing left for him to linger over in the desert, so he directly returned to the Imperial Capital.

"Sir, you're back?" At the Mittel Family, Hai Bodong watched Jiang Luo descend and greeted him with a fawning smile.

"Don't worry, your Medicinal Pill isn't going anywhere." Jiang Luo first handed Qing Lin to Ya Fei, asking her to take good care of her.

Then he took out the sand mandala he had conveniently picked up in the desert.

"Thank you, Sir!" Hai Bodong's eyes lit up, suddenly feeling that life was full of hope.

With this Revival Purple Pill, returning to the Peak was just around the corner!

Jiang Luo did not hesitate, immediately returning to his room to begin refining. Hai Bodong guarded the door, incredibly nervous.

For this Medicinal Pill, he had lived in seclusion in the desert for decades, all for this moment!

"Elder Hai, you don't need to be so nervous. In the entire Jia Ma Empire, who would dare to disturb Sir Jiang Luo?" Mittel Tengshan stood beside him, smiling.

And unexpectedly, someone actually came looking for Jiang Luo at this time.

After settling Qing Lin, Ya Fei came to Mittel Tengshan's side and whispered a few words.

"That old fellow Nalan Jie?" Mittel Tengshan frowned slightly.

"What does he want with Sir?"

Hai Bodong snorted coldly. This was a critical moment for Sir to refine his Medicinal Pill; nothing could go wrong.

"Reporting, Elder Hai, I saw his face was pale and his aura was weak. It must be the brand toxin erupting," Ya Fei said softly.

Nalan Jie was previously told by Sir that he was afflicted with the brand toxin, but Sir didn't detoxify him at the time, probably because he hadn't prepared how to pay the recompense.

Today, he personally came to visit, likely because the brand toxin has erupted, and he can no longer bear the torment.

"Tengshan, you stay here and guard. I'll go meet that fellow."

This concerned his return to the Peak, so he couldn't be careless.

Mittel Tengshan nodded.

Arriving in the main hall, Nalan Jie could be seen slumped on the sofa, his aura weak, no longer possessing his usual robust demeanor.

His voice hoarse, he cupped his fists and said, "Elder Hai, could you introduce me to Sir Jiang Luo?"

At this moment, Nalan Jie had none of his former arrogance and authority.

As the Clan Chief of the Nalan Family, one of the Three Great Families of the Jia Ma Empire, he had always been a man of his word, even able to stand as an equal with the Imperial Family.

But now, his back was hunched, his eyes filled with pleading, and his words carried cautious probing, completely lacking his usual dignity.

Hai Bodong looked at him in this state, his brows slightly furrowed.

He naturally knew Nalan Jie's character. For him to lower his stance like this, it must mean that the brand toxin within him had reached a critical point.

"Apologies, Sir Jiang Luo is currently refining a Medicinal Pill for me. I'm afraid you'll have to endure a little longer."

"Is that so? Then I'll wait." Nalan Jie sighed inwardly.

Since Sir Jiang Luo was busy, he could only wait.

If he had sought Sir's help earlier, he wouldn't be plagued by the brand toxin now.
