Chapter 120: Battle against the Poison Lady (Part 2)
Li Xiaoyao was stunned when he heard Lin Shen's question and said, "Aren't you going to deal with her?"
Lin Shen said, "Her limited skills are not enough to fill the gaps in my teeth. The problem is, don't forget (pointing at Liu Jinyuan and Caiyi), there is also a wounded and sick person over there."
Lin Yueru said, "I understand, Anos. Brother Liu and Caiyi are in your care. Let's deal with the Poison Lady."
Lin Shen said, "Be careful, this guy can use lightning spells. By the way, Ling'er, the poisonous dragon gall should be in your hands."
Zhao Linger took out the poisonous dragon gall and said, "It's here with me, you can take it."
After Lin Shen took the poisonous dragon gall, Li Xiaoyao and the other three stood side by side in front of the Poison Lady. The Poison Lady seemed to realize something and said, "You have ruined my good fortune."
Lin Yueru said, "Stop talking nonsense and show us your true strength with your own hands."
After saying that, he pointed his sword and shot it towards the Poison Lady. The Poison Lady quickly dodged to the side, and the sword energy only made a hole in the spider web.
Zhao Linger also began to cast spells, sending several fireballs towards the Poison Lady, who hurriedly dodged. Anu also fired several lightning bolts at the Poison Lady, leaving her no time to split herself.
Lin Shen walked up to Caiyi and checked her injuries. Liu Jinyuan asked, "How is she?"
Lin Shen said, "It's nothing serious, it will be fine in a while. It's just that my cultivation has been severely damaged. Now it's less than half of what it was before. It won't be easy to recover."
After saying that, Lin Shen snapped his fingers, and the wounds on Caiyi's body slowly healed.
Liu Jinyuan let Cai lean on him and said, "Cai Yi, why don't you tell me the truth? If you tell me, how could I misunderstand you?"
Lin Shen was too lazy to pay attention to him. After a while, Cai Yi's injuries were all healed. Lin Shen took out the poisonous dragon gall again and said, "This is poisonous dragon gall. It can cure all the strange poisons in the world."
Caiyi said, "That's great, my husband is saved."
Liu Jinyuan took the poisonous gentian and swallowed it. After a while, Liu Jinyuan felt uncomfortable all over and looked very painful. Caiyi shouted, "Husband~Husband~!"
But Lin Shen looked calm. Cai Yi supported Liu Jinyuan and looked at Lin Shen, asking, "Anos, what's going on?"
Lin Shen said, "This is a normal reaction during detoxification. You'll be fine after you spit out the poisonous blood."
After a while, he spat out a mouthful of black pus and blood. Caiyi hurriedly stroked Liu Jinyuan's back to help him breathe, and asked, "Husband, how are you?"
Liu Jinyuan said, "Feel...much more comfortable." Lin Shen took Liu Jinyuan's pulse and confirmed that he was fine.
At this point, Poison Lady had dodged countless attacks from Zhao Linger and Anu, and was a little tired. "If I don't show my power, you'll think I'm a sick cat," she said, raising her left hand and countless bolts of lightning rained down from the sky.
Li Xiaoyao shouted "Be careful!" and the four of them dodged the lightning.
Cai Yi saw Poison Lady's performance and said, "Anos, aren't you going to do it?"
Lin Shen said, "I've already estimated that guy's strength. If the four of them can't handle him together, then don't go into the martial arts world. At worst, I'll come after him if I can't beat him.
Besides, the five of us have dealt with giant spiders that were tougher than her, and this is just the beginning."
Poison Lady waved her left hand, and a spider web flew towards Li Xiaoyao. Zhao Linger quickly set fire to the spider web. Poison Lady was furious when she saw this, and waved her hand again, and dozens of spiders attacked Li Xiaoyao and his companions.
Li Xiaoyao immediately unleashed a Ten Thousand Swords Technique, while Lin Yueru used her ring to conjure a dart and flung it at the spiders. Anu pulled out a handful of Explosive Gu from her Ten Thousand Gu Pouch and flung it at the spiders. With screams and explosions, all the spiders summoned by the Poison Lady were annihilated.
The Poison Lady shot several lightning bolts at Lin Yueru. Lin Yueru drew her sword and shot a stream of sword energy at the Poison Lady. The sword energy exploded when it collided with the lightning bolts. Lin Yueru and the Poison Lady stood there motionless.
Poison Lady waved her hand again, summoning dozens of spiders to attack Liu Jinyuan and Cai Yi. Lin Shen remained calm, gathering firepower with his fingers and saying, "You two, stay close to me. Don't hurt anyone by mistake."
Although Liu Jinyuan and Caiyi didn't know what Lin Shen wanted to do, they knew it was right to listen to him, so they walked up to him.
Lin Shen waved his finger, and a vortex of flames formed around the three of them. All the spiders summoned by the Poison Lady were sucked in and burned to ash.
The Poison Lady opened her mouth wide, and a stream of black gas spewed out of it. Li Xiaoyao shouted, "It's poison gas, be careful!" Zhao Linger dodged and concentrated her spiritual power to create a hurricane, blowing away the poison gas spewed out by the Poison Lady.
Anu threw three fire silkworm poisons at the Poison Lady, who dodged them hastily. Lin Yueru swung out a sword, and the Poison Lady was unable to dodge in time, resulting in a cut on her arm. Blue-green blood kept flowing out of the wound.
Lin Shen said to Cai Yi and Liu Jinyuan, "Look, I can handle her without you having to do it."
Li Xiaoyao shouted, "Poison Lady, you've already lost. Surrender now and you can still survive!"
The Poison Lady roared, "Don't think you can defeat me like this. I will never surrender, never!"
After saying that, Poison Lady changed back to her original form and bit Li Xiaoyao.
Li Xiaoyao dodged in time, and Anu shot an ice silkworm Gu at the Poison Lady. The ice silkworm Gu hit the poisonous spider's face, freezing half of its face. Li Xiaoyao condensed the sword energy, condensed countless sword energies into a huge sword energy and hit the spider, cutting the poisonous spider into two pieces with one sword.
A purple bead flew out of the poisonous spider's body and landed in front of Lin Yueru.
Lin Yueru picked it up and said, "What kind of bead is this? It looks a bit like the Earth Spirit Bead."
Zhao Linger and Anu came over to take a look and shouted in unison, "Thunder Spirit Pearl!"
Li Xiaoyao said, "What? The Thunder Spirit Pearl is on Poison Lady!?"
Cai Yi said, "No wonder she can use lightning spells. It turns out it's the power of the Thunder Spirit Pearl."
Lin Shen said, "Now we only need one Fire Spirit Pearl, and all five Spirit Pearls will be complete."
Caiyi was feeling very depressed at this time. Liu Jinyuan took her hand and said, "Caiyi, let's go home."
Caiyi said in a tearful voice, "I...I won't go back."
Liu Jinyuan said, "What's wrong?"
Caiyi cried and said, "What happened... made me think a lot. Anos is right, you are human and I am a demon. We can't be together after all. Thank you and your wife for taking care of me during this time. Humans and demons have different paths, so in this life... it's better for you and me not to see each other again."
Lin Yueru glared at Lin Shen and said, "What did you tell your sister-in-law? It's better to demolish ten temples than to break up a marriage, don't you know?"
Lin Shen said, "I told her that the lifespan difference between humans and demons is huge. Liu Jinyuan will grow older day by day, while she will always maintain this appearance. Sooner or later, the truth about her being a demon will be exposed. Also, what if she and Liu Jinyuan combine and give birth to a half-human, half-demon child?"
Lin Yueru said, "So what? As long as we truly love each other, it doesn't matter whether we are human or demon."
Lin Shen said, "Do you think Uncle Liu's colleagues and the current government would think so? They would definitely regard him as an alien. Even Uncle Liu's political enemies would use this as an excuse to attack him. Let his family choose between an official position and a daughter-in-law. What do you think they would do?"
Upon hearing this, everyone realized the seriousness of the matter and understood that Anos's advice to separate was based on the Liu family's future.
Liu Jinyuan said, "I've already let Caiyi down once, I can't let her down a second time. Caiyi is my legally married wife!"
When Caiyi heard the word "wife" from Liu Jinyuan's mouth, her heart was inevitably moved. In fact, she didn't want to leave Liu Jinyuan, but she had to do so because of her identity as a demon.
Liu Jinyuan looked at Lin Shen and said, "Don't you have great magical powers? Don't you have any other options? I can't lose her!"
Lin Shen said, "It has happened before, but the common solution to this situation is just two words: seclusion. Nangong Huang was a half-human, half-wolf demon. He and Wen Hui later lived in seclusion in Shi Village.
But the question is, even if you are willing, will Minister Liu and Aunt Yun agree?!
Moreover, you are different from ordinary scholars. You are the son of Minister Liu. If this gets out, you will become a laughing stock of the world.
And forgive me for being blunt, but with your physique, can you endure a life where men farm and women weave?"
Zhao Linger said, "Is there no other way? Are we just going to watch them never see each other again in this life?"
Lin Shen also felt a headache for the first time. In fact, he didn't want to separate the two of them. This was just a last resort. At this time, he had no other choice but to call out the system and ask for a solution.
The system provides two solutions:
One way to go to the Jade Blood Pool is to dissolve the demonic power in Cai Yi, turning her into a mortal with magical powers;
Another thing is that there is a kind of elixir in the mall that can block the evil spirit in Caiyi, but the evil spirit in the children born as a side effect cannot be blocked.
Lin Shen looked at Cai Yi and said, "I'll leave the choice to you.
One is to go to a place called the Bixue Pool, which will dissolve your demonic power and turn you into a mortal with magical powers;
Or I can get you a pill that can block the demonic energy in you, but if Liu Jinyuan and I really give birth to a half-human, half-demon child, his demonic energy cannot be blocked.
This is a serious matter, I'll give you time to think it over carefully!"
