Chapter 964 - : Curing the poison, returning to the valley
“Boss, what are you doing?” Hu Yang asked with curiosity when he saw Sima You Yue making those things.
“Curing your poison.” Sima You Yue said as she placed the things to the side.
“Curing our poison?”
“Didn’t you guys get poisoned by the Blood Demon Tree and are now unable to cultivate?” Sima You Yue said, “This is an antidote that my friend has helped to create for you. I don’t know if it’ll be useful or now. You can test it out. You don’t mind being a lab right, right?”
“If it is useful, with so many people around, it won’t be an easy thing if you want to cure it.” Old Bi said.
“Of course we’ll start with curing our own people!” Little Seven said, “You guys are coming out with us, and will eventually be with our sect. Of course we’ll have to cure you. Otherwise, if we get you out while your skills aren’t up to par, wouldn’t it be a waste? Right, Yue Yue?”
After speaking, she even smiled at Sima You Yue.
Sima You Yue understood what she meant. Since she had already said it, she could only nod along with her.
As such, they spread the news that those who were going to join the sect would be given treatment first. After the rumor was repeated enough, who knows what happened, but the rumor was twisted to say that they would only treat those who would join the sect.
Others understood why they would do so. After all, nobody would treat others for free.
As such, the group of them fell deep into contemplation.
On this side, Sima You Yue was stewing some liquid. The fire crackled and the little fire burned slowly. After half a day passed, a huge pot of liquid medicine was prepared.
Sima You Yue took out a ladle of it and looked at Mu Lian Xin and his men, asking, “Who wants to be the first to give it a shot?”
They had no idea that Sima You Yue was proficient at medicine, so they had no confidence in her pot of medicine.
“I’ll do it!” Hu Yang stepped forward, took the bowl and gulped it down.
Everyone looked at him to see what kind of reaction he would have. However, after this guy drank it, he had no expression. He just stood there in a daze.
“Big Beardy, what’s up with you?” Mu Lian Xin asked.
Hu Yang scratched his head, saying, “I seem to be feeling that the power that was suppressing my spirit energy is weakened.”
“So you’re saying that it’s effective?”
“It should be.” Hu Yang turned around and looked at Sima You Yue, saying, “Boss, can I drink another bowl?”
“One person can only drink one bowl a day.” Sima You Yue shook her head, “Two hundred people should be able to drink this today. Distribute the medicine. Feng Kai, Shi Chen, you guys are in charge of this. Old Bi, come over here. We’ll continue treating your poison.”
Sima You Yue led Old Bi to a nice little house and continued to help treat his poison, ready to completely cure it today.
They stayed in the house for a few hours before they were finally done. By the time they emerged, Bi Sheng’s aura was completely different.
Those who were outside drank the soup and felt like the pressure weakened somewhat. They were all incredibly excited.
It had been so many years since they experienced an increase in strength. Now that they had hope, they were all beyond themselves with joy.
Sima You Yue saw the results and got them to cook a few more pots. She chose two thousand more people to test it on and saw that those who didn’t get chosen were incredibly jealous.
“There is no need to be anxious. You will all get the antidote.” Little Seven said to them, “However, whoever is more zealous will get priority.”
“We are clearly very zealous.” Someone said.
“But Yue Yue doesn’t have that many antidotes!” Little Seven said, “We can only choose a few of you at a time. Anyway, you all haven’t cultivated for so many years, what’s a few days more? If you make anymore fuss, I won’t give you the antidote.”
“…”
With this warning, nobody dared say anything else. Everyone could see that her status was above average. It was higher than Shi Chen and the others. Nobody dared to disobey her.”
Furthermore, everyone had seen how powerful she was. They dared not get on her bad side.
They stayed here for a few more days. There were those who were more lightly poisoned, and were completely cured in four to five days. When they sensed that the spirit energy they absorbed would not disappear into nowhere, they were so excited that they almost jumped up. They were extremely moved as they looked at Sima You Yue.
“We initially said that the antidote wouldn’t be easy to come by, but now that we have it, we feel like it came too easily.” Hu Yang said.
“If you knew about the items in there, you would know how difficult it was. If it were not because we happened to have those things, you would never be able to find the antidote.” Sima You Yue said.
The antidote was easy? Just the fact that it required the eye of the earth made it so they would never be able to find the antidote. Ever.
If it wasn’t because they happened to have Little Seven. They would be poisoned for the rest of their life.
“This is the antidote for Heartbreak Valley.” Sima You Yue said, “After eating this, we will prepare to head back.”
They ate the antidote, but didn’t feel like anything was different.
Sima You Yue, Little Seven and Wu Lingyu returned to Heartbreak Valley.
“Vice Sect Leader, you have returned.”
When they saw Sima You Yue, everyone greeted her.
“Yue, you’ve returned. I heard that something happened in Blood Fiend City. Are you okay?” Aunt Yi looked at Sima You Yue and examined her.
“I’m fine.” Sima You Yue said, “We’re the ones who caused the issue in Blood fiend City. What could have happened.”
“It’s good that you’re fine, it’s good.”
“Aunt Yi, where’s Feng’er?”
“He’s…”
Aunt Yi had yet to reply when Ximen Feng flew in.
“Big Sis, you’re back.”
“Mm. I have some things to tell you about.” Sima You Yue’s expression was solemn, causing Ximen Feng and the other’s to tense up.
“What’s wrong?”
Sima You Yue told him about what happened in Blood Fieng City, and his eyes grew round when he heard it.
“You’re saying that a few tens of thousands of people are willing to join us?” Aunt Yi took a long while to find her voice.
“Indeed.” Sima You Yue said, “Furthermore, we’re still tallying the numbers.”
The more people from the little realm got to know Sima You Yue, the more their hearts were moved. They initially wanted to reside in there, but they now wanted to come out and join them.
“But we can’t keep all those people.” Ximen Qi said, “We just started. The shops that Young Lord Qin gave us have yet to get their returns. If we accept all those people in one go, we’ll be in chaos.”
“That’s right. There are too many of them. If we don’t handle things well, we’ll fall into turmoil.”
“They shouldn’t all come together.” Sima You Yue said, “I’ll still need a bit of time to help them cure their poison. Furthermore, during this period of time, we’ll split them well. We can take over the properties that Big Bro Qin has given us. We can also start digging into the mine. Before I leave, I can head over to the mine that San Lai Zi gave us and set up a teleportation array that leads here directly. We’ll dig for the resources over there. Those from Blood Fiend City cannot walk around the continent. However, we can still get them to dig in the mines.”
“Will they be willing to dig in the mines?”
“We won’t be getting them to dig the mines the whole time. They’ll be split into batches. They’ll dig in turns. This way, they won’t spend a lot of time digging, and they’ll have more time to cultivate.” Sima You Yue said, “The spirit energy near the mines is dense anyway, I think they’ll agree.”
“You mentioned that you would set it up before you left. When do you plan to return?” Ximen Feng asked.
