49: Chapter 49 Misfortune may be a blessing in disguise

Ji Taichang, fearing that these few bottles of poison wouldn't reach a lethal dose, spoke up, "Miss, let me help you treat the wounds on your body."

"Alright."

The woman in red nodded and immediately removed her armor.

In an instant, a dazzling, snow-white radiance blinded him; Ji Taichang's eyes widened, his mouth went dry, and his blood pressure soared!

Her delicate body was fair and smooth, flawless to the point of perfection, enough to drive countless people mad!

However, since she was a Nascent Soul Stage Devil Head who could slap him to death with one hand, Ji Taichang didn't dare to act rashly and simply took out some bottles and jars from his Storage Ring.

He picked up a medicinal bottle labeled "Hemostatic Powder" and sprinkled it onto the woman in red's wounds.

In an instant, accompanied by a "sizzling" sound, a wisp of black smoke rose up.

This was actually Five-Poison Powder!!

Ji Taichang then took out a bottle of Bone-Mending Paste, carefully applying it to her wounds, causing the flesh at the wound site to turn slightly black, as a cold and sinister Qi quietly seeped into her heart.

This was Heart-Breaking Powder!

Ji Taichang used seven or eight different poisons in one go, all of which he had carefully selected; when mixed in different proportions, they could concoct a terrifying, lethal poison!

This was a unique poison Ji Taichang had created based on the insights and alchemy attainments of the Fire Cloud Pill King!

A Medicinal Pill can save lives, but it can also kill!

"Why did you use so many types of medicine?"

The woman in red frowned slightly, vaguely feeling that something was wrong.

But under the influence of the strong painkillers, and compounded by the fact that she was already severely injured and her perception had dropped significantly, she had not yet detected anything unusual.

Ji Taichang explained, "Miss, your injuries are too severe; relying on just one or two medicines has limited effect. They must be used in combination. I come from a family of medical practitioners; I wouldn't lie to you."

"Come, Miss, please turn around so I can treat the wounds on your back as well."

The woman in red was half-doubting, but she still turned around.

The lines of her back were smooth and graceful, as fair and tender as tofu, seeming to radiate a charming luster, extending from her slender neck down to her waist, which could be spanned by one's hands; the curve was just right.

Ji Taichang felt his mouth go dry, but he still managed to suppress his urges with his strong willpower.

He picked up a bunch of bottles and jars and applied another round of poison to her.

"With my attainments as the new generation Fire Cloud Pill King, even if you are a Nascent Soul Stage expert, you will still be poisoned by me!"

"Daring to threaten this young master, you'll get what's coming to you!"

After doing all this, the corners of Ji Taichang's mouth curled up, forming a cold sneer!

The woman in red put her clothes back on and said, "Little brother, continue carrying me and fly straight to Xunfeng City... Ugh!!"

She suddenly let out a muffled groan, her complexion turning somewhat pale!

The woman in red only felt a warmth in her stomach, and it was getting warmer and warmer, as if a volcano had awakened, burning her internal organs until they were riddled with holes!

A burning sensation also came from the wound on her chest, as if countless ants were gnawing at it.

This was an intense pain that even strong painkillers couldn't stop!!

"You... you actually dared to poison me!!"

[Ding! Luo Hongyi's Favorability reduced by 80 points]

[Luo Hongyi's Favorability: -100 (When Favorability reaches 100, a surprise will occur!)]

The woman in red's expression changed; her originally beautiful and enchanting face was now filled with ferocity and rage!

A terrifying Nascent Soul Stage pressure erupted from her body, shaking the heavens and the earth!

But Ji Taichang was incredibly cunning.

When the woman in red groaned, Ji Taichang had already turned and ran, unleashing his full Golden Core Stage Ninth Level cultivation, sprinting toward the distance!

The woman in red had just wanted to stand up.

As she circulated her spiritual power, the various poisons in her body instantly erupted, causing her to spit out a large mouthful of blood; blood was flowing from her seven orifices, and the power in her entire body was in chaos!

"Ahhh... die for me!!"

The woman in red let out a shrill scream, raised her hand to summon a blood-red precious sword, and threw it violently at Ji Taichang!

Swoosh!!

A streak of blood-red light cut across the sky like lightning, filled with chilling Killing Intent; it was too fast, firmly locking onto Ji Taichang!

Ji Taichang was unable to dodge in time and immediately summoned the fire cloud pill cauldron, which grew rapidly in the wind, shielding him in front.

Boom!!!

The blood-red precious sword slammed heavily into the fire cloud pill cauldron, emitting a dull explosion, sending Ji Taichang flying sideways; blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, and he was quite heavily injured.

But Ji Taichang instantly closed the lid of the fire cloud pill cauldron, hoisted it up, and ran!

The woman in red had just wanted to summon back her natal precious sword, but her injuries were simply too severe; after spitting out a mouthful of blood, she fell to the ground, unable to move.

She could only watch helplessly as Ji Taichang ran further and further away!

Ji Taichang flew hundreds, if not thousands, of miles in one breath; only after confirming that the woman in red hadn't caught up did he let out a long sigh of relief, his heart still palpitating with lingering fear.

Ji Taichang hurriedly hid in a cave, changed out of his robes and mask, and used the Turtle Breath Art to alter his appearance and Qi.

Fortunately, he was naturally suspicious, so he had changed his persona before going out.

If the woman in red had seen the Ji Aotian persona, Ji Taichang would likely never sleep peacefully again.

Just as Ji Taichang was preparing to leave, a woman dressed in a blue and white palace-style ru-skirt stepped into the cave; her complexion was as pale as paper, and she was heavily injured, teetering on the edge of collapse.

"Again?!"

Ji Taichang's expression changed, and his face turned green.

"Wait, no!"

"Her cultivation... is only Golden Core Stage Third Level!"

"Phew, that's good, just scaring myself..."

After sensing the other person's cultivation, Ji Taichang finally let out a sigh of relief.

This woman's figure was slender and exquisite, reaching only to Ji Taichang's shoulder, yet she had a surging, ample bosom that made Ji Taichang unable to resist taking a few extra glances.

Her face was very pure and beautiful, and she looked like she was only in her prime youth, around sixteen, with her pale complexion making her appear even more pitiful.

"This young lady, you..."

Ji Taichang had just wanted to say something, but he saw a strange red light flash in her eyes as she pounced directly at him!

Caught off guard, Ji Taichang was knocked to the ground by her, her soft and delicate body pinning him down.

"Holy crap!"

"Miss, please show some self-respect... Ugh!"

Before Ji Taichang could finish his sentence, his mouth was blocked by her red lips.

Just as Ji Taichang wanted to push her away, his powerful Divine Sense perceived something abnormal.

"She's injured, there is a strand of Devilish Qi eroding her body!"

"Why does this Qi feel a bit familiar... isn't this the power of the woman in red?"

"Was she the one who had the intense battle with the woman in red earlier?!"

"But isn't she only at the Golden Core Stage Third Level cultivation? How could she possibly fight against a Nascent Soul Stage powerhouse..."

Ji Taichang's eyes widened a bit; he had actually sensed the power signature of the woman in red from earlier on her!

Clearly, this young lady had been injured by the woman in red!

Before Ji Taichang could figure out what was going on, the young lady clumsily and violently tore open Ji Taichang's clothes, her eyes filled with red light, her breathing rapid and hot.

Ji Taichang roughly understood what kind of Demonic Path method she had been afflicted with.

Riiip——

Accompanied by the sound of tearing fabric, the cave was soon filled with an amorous atmosphere.
