Chapter 2055: Chapter 2055 Terrifying Alchemists
"Master Qiao, they didn’t make their move..." Murong Tian quickly tried to explain for them.
But Qiao Yun completely disregarded him, and directly addresses Liu Zimo and Xing Baiyu: "If I ever hear about you two messing with Qi Huan again, no matter the reason, even if you run to the ends of the earth, I will hunt both of you down, understand?"
"Yes, yes!" Both of them looked deflated and answer with a face full of helplessness.
"Louder, I didn’t hear!"
"Yes, sir!" Liu Zimo and Xing Baiyu had mouths full of blood, they barely shout out.
Subsequently, Qiao Yun shifted his intimidating aura towards Murong Tian, "Don’t think that you can bully my disciple just because you’re a sacred disciple! Dare to target him again, and I will kill you right away!"
The two guards around Murong Tian rushed to help him resist the pressure. But even so, he was trembling all over.
"Master Qiao, it really has nothing to do with our sacred disciple!" A nearby guard tried to explain to Qiao Yun.
However, he snorted coldly, grabbed Qi Huan, and flew away without paying any attention to them.
After they departed, flames were about to burst from Murong Tian’s eyes, and he kicked the table in front of him flying.
Ye Liuyun held back his laughter, fearing being noticed.
"This Qi Huan is really a treasure! He is bold and careful, not willing to suffer any losses. And this Qiao Yun, clearly did this intentionally to scare off Murong Tian! After this, his men will probably need a few days’ rest to recover!"
Ye Liuyun felt a thrill in his heart. Whether it was intentionally set up by Qi Huan and his master, it was enjoyable to watch.
"Let it go! You’ll be stronger than him sooner or later!" Li Xingrou also started to persuade Murong Tian.
Murong Tian nods his head, but still left the scene immediately, possibly feeling that Qiao Yun has made him embarrassed himself.
Another servant came and helped Liu Zimo, Xing Baiyu, and Feng Chen return to their places to rest.
This gathering had to end hastily, and everyone went back to their places.
Li Jian, on his way out, was dispatched by Ye Liuyun to find Liu Xing.
Upon returning, Ye Liuyun summoned Scorch, Hua Xiangyuan, and Azure and gave them a set of instructions to prepare accordingly.
He, on the other hand, went back into the Xuankong Stone to discuss about elixirs with Lin Luoyi and Lin Xiyao.
"Do you know of any methods to control people using elixirs? I want to make a Youth Preserving Pill for Murong Tian’s woman and slip some drug into it to bring her under my control. I also want to durg Liu Xing’s tea, the antidote should only be available with us."
Ye Liuyun was worried that if he force a slave mark on Li Xing Rou, it would be noticed by others. After all, she was a princess of the Royal Management, heavily protected by strong guards. Once it was noticed, his deceitful act would be exposed.
Liu Xing’s master was Wu Kun. His powerful divine soul made Ye Liuyun worry that he might detect if he forced a slave mark on Liu Xing.
After pondering for a while, Lin Luoyi said, "It’s easy. I know of a method, which is a powder concocted from various toxic herbs, called Multi Poison Powder.
It’s not brilliant and is rarely used within alchemists due to its obvious detection as poison, but it is rather hard to detoxify.
Since each person’s cultivation uses different poisons, even their sequence and quantities differ. If detoxification is done incorrectly, the poisoned person is doomed."
"Can you make it? We’ll provide the antidote once a month, but don’t completely detoxify it. We need to control him for a long term," Ye Liuyun asked.
"The concoction is simple indeed, just that it’ll be too obvious. You’ll need to force him to drink it."
"No problem. I will have Scorch and Hua Xiangyuan do their job.""
"Then there should be no problem!" Lin Luoyi agreed.
"What about that Youth Preserving Pill you were preparing for Li Xingrou? Is that possible?" Ye Liuyun asked again.
Lin Luoyi hesitated, "It is, but the method is irreversible. It’s addictive and must be continuously taken until they die, otherwise they will get physically tortured, and their spirit will be languished as well."
"Oh, what is it?" Ye Liuyun briefly couldn’t remember what it was.
"It comes from our spatial world!" Lin Luoyi reminded.
Ye Liuyun and Lin Xiyao still couldn’t figure out what it was.
"You two... One neglects their studies, the other is careless, it’s the seeds of Illustar Grass and Black Hemp!"
Upon Lin Luoyi’s answer, they both suddenly realized.
Overuse of Illustar Grass could cause hallucinations and dependency, and if not continuously consumed, the divine soul will wither. Black Hemp could originally be used to treat colds, but overuse would also cause addiction.
Combined, these two will cause both physical and mental addiction.
More importantly, neither of them was toxic and would be undetectable once integrated into the pill. Even when discovered, Ye Liuyun could justify by saying that they were used to boost the spirit and enhance immunity.
"Why would you research these?" Ye Liuyun immediately questioned Lin Luoyi after understanding.
"See, I knew you would think this way! I only intensively research every kind of medicinal herb and envision all possible applications. I’ve never actually refined related elixirs!" Lin Luoyi hurriedly explained.
"Many herbs will have side effects when overused, you simply haven’t studied that much! And martial practitioners’ constitution is special, with high metabolic capability, so minor differences in elixir doses go unnoticed."
Lin Luoyi kept explaining, fearing Ye Liuyun would misunderstand her.
Ye Liuyun also nodded and said, "You’re right, we haven’t been thorough enough in our studies. An alchemist could be terrifying, it’s just one thought away to harm someone."
"As long as we don’t refine pills to harm people on purpose, it’s fine! This time, it’s against the bad guys, we don’t need to care about such methods!”
Thus, she went straight ahead to prepare the Multi Poison Powder and its antidote. Ye Liuyun and Lin Xiyao were responsible for finding the Illustar Grass and Black Hemp, facilitating the refinement process.
The preparation of the powder was extremely simple and Liu Xing would definitely drink it, so Lin Luoyi didn’t need to refine any pills. She only crafted the antidote and handed over its recipe to Ye Liuyun for safekeeping as a backup.
"That’s it?"
After glancing at the recipe, Ye Liuyun also found it somewhat surprising. This was just a mixed powder of several types of poison.
Lin Luoyi chuckled, "But it’s precisely because of its simplicity that, apart from the poisoner, no one else can create an antidote to it! As there is no uniform standard set for the type of poison, its sequence, and dosage, only the poisoner will have the antidote."
