CHAPTER 1566: CHAPTER 1557: MAYBE I CAN SAVE HIM

Seeing that Ye Chenfeng had spoken.

The two ancestors of the Red Flame Sect, Zeng Guangyuan and Qian Rong’an, could only glare angrily at Zhao Lengfeng.

And the Sect Master of Red Flame Sect, Zhao Lengfeng, hurriedly changed the subject, saying, "Two ancestors, please have a seat."

Zhao Lengfeng had Zeng Guangyuan and Qian Rong’an sit at the main table in the hall.

Zeng Guangyuan and Qian Rong’an ignored Zhao Lengfeng’s suggestion. The two of them turned to Ye Chenfeng and said, "Master, you sit first."

Zhao Lengfeng was someone Zeng Guangyuan and Qian Rong’an had watched grow up. They also knew Zhao Lengfeng’s temper. If it had been someone else, these two old men would have slapped them flying long ago.

Zeng Guangyuan and Qian Rong’an truly regarded Ye Chenfeng as their master in formations.

Ye Chenfeng was not overly polite with these two old men, as it would seem too pretentious. He casually sat down at the main table, and Zeng Guangyuan and Qian Rong’an sat beside him.

As for the Sect Master of the Red Flame Sect, Zhao Lengfeng, he could only sit at a table below Ye Chenfeng and the others.

Zeng Guangyuan and Qian Rong’an’s gaze turned to Sun Xiaoli and Sun Hengfei and others. Qian Rong’an smiled and said, "You are all friends of my master. From now on, the Red Flame Sect is your home. You can come to me if you need anything."

Zeng Guangyuan followed and said, "Old Qian is right. Don’t be too formal, just relax. We’re merely having a meal."

Compared to Ye Chenfeng’s nonchalance, Sun Xiaoli and Sun Hengfei and the others were extremely tense. They had never imagined sitting for a meal with the two ancestors of the Red Flame Sect, who were so courteous to them. These ancestors were Nirvana Realm powerhouses!

In the eyes of Sun Xiaoli and Sun Hengfei and others, the Nirvana Realm was a level they might never reach in their lifetime.

Sun Xiaoli and Sun Hengfei and the others could only smile bitterly as they watched Ye Chenfeng eat and drink heartily.

After Qian Rong’an and Zeng Guangyuan spoke a few words, they started chatting with Ye Chenfeng while eating. They kept asking Ye Chenfeng about knowledge related to formations.

Now, these two old men could be considered Ye Chenfeng’s disciples, so their skin had become quite thick.

In the hall, only the Sect Master of the Red Flame Sect, Zhao Lengfeng, drank sullenly. He couldn’t see anything special about Ye Chenfeng that would make the two ancestors call him Master.

Zhao Lengfeng, with a rugged appearance, his action of guzzling wine and gulping meat revealed that he was also someone who didn’t stand on ceremony.

Zhao Lengfeng didn’t know he had been poisoned. Originally, the poison in his body wouldn’t have erupted yet, but with the large amount of alcohol, the toxins in his body erupted early.

Just as he prepared to gulp down more potent wine, Zhao Lengfeng’s hand holding the wine bowl suddenly froze. His brows knitted together as he felt a burning pain in his internal organs, as if a fire had ignited within.

Soon after, Zhao Lengfeng clearly felt a surge of electrical power on the surface of his internal organs.

The deadly toxin within and the electric power without were working together to rapidly destroy Zhao Lengfeng’s internal structure.

Upon realizing something was wrong, the Spiritual Energy River in Zhao Lengfeng’s meridians immediately circulated. He wanted to infuse spiritual energy into his internal organs to try to disperse the toxins and electrical power.

Despite being a Reincarnation Realm Third Heaven Peak powerhouse, Zhao Lengfeng found his spiritual energy useless. On the contrary, the toxins inside and the electric power outside his organs grew more intense.

"Clang!" went the noise.

Zhao Lengfeng’s hand trembled, and his wine bowl crashed to the ground.

Immediately.

"Ugh!"

A mouthful of black blood spewed from Zhao Lengfeng’s mouth.

Everything happened too suddenly. Everyone in the hall was fixated on Zhao Lengfeng.

Only Ye Chenfeng remained unruffled, as he had just learned from Lao Bai that Zhao Lengfeng had been poisoned.

Zeng Guangyuan and Qian Rong’an were momentarily stunned, then immediately appeared beside Zhao Lengfeng. Zeng Guangyuan urgently asked, "Lengfeng, what happened to you? You seem to be poisoned. What’s going on?"

A pallid-faced Zhao Lengfeng said, "Ancestor, I don’t know either. I can’t control what’s happening inside me."

Zeng Guangyuan and Qian Rong’an couldn’t worry about why Zhao Lengfeng was poisoned now. The two were not well-versed in dealing with poisons. Qian Rong’an said to Sun Xiaoli’s master, Zheng Mei, "Quickly inform all Red Flame Sect’s inner sect elders to gather in the hall."

Some inner sect elders in the Red Flame Sect had some expertise in poisons.

At these words, Zheng Mei immediately rushed out of the hall.

Meanwhile, Zeng Guangyuan and Qian Rong’an tried to expel the poison from Zhao Lengfeng’s body.

Ye Chenfeng sat calmly, inquiring in his mind, "Lao Bai, what poison has the Sect Master of the Red Flame Sect been subjected to?"

Lao Bai, Wu Fengxian, replied, "From what I and Lao Hei sensed, this guy seems to have been poisoned by ’Thunderous Doom Powder.’

"The ’Thunderous Doom Powder’ uses the electric power and venom of a Thunder Snake as the primary catalyst, mixed with over five thousand other deadly toxins. Even Nirvana Realm experts find it very problematic, let alone someone at the Reincarnation Realm. Once the toxin erupts, there’s almost no hope."

"Little fellow, your Divine Blood could neutralize this poison, but the electric power adhering to his organs isn’t venom, so your Divine Blood can’t neutralize it."

"The only thing in this world that can fully neutralize both the poison and the electric power is a ’Three-Colored Hundred-Thunder Pill.’ However, the Three-Colored Hundred-Thunder Pill is the pinnacle of Fourth-Rank elixirs, and its formula has long since been lost in the Earth Profound Realm."

"Even if the formula existed, it’s unlikely that the Earth Profound Realm’s alchemists could produce it. Luckily, I have the formula, but little fellow, you’re only a Third-Rank Alchemist! The chance of success is not very high."

...

Soon, the inner sect elders of the Red Flame Sect all gathered in the hall.

Including the elder of the Law Enforcement Hall, Wu Dongyuan.

When Wu Dongyuan saw the pallid Zhao Lengfeng, a hidden glee flickered in his eyes. He hadn’t expected Zhao Lengfeng’s toxins to erupt prematurely.

After the inner sect elders of the Red Flame Sect arrived in the hall, those with some knowledge of poisons immediately examined Zhao Lengfeng and concluded in unison.

Zhao Lengfeng was poisoned with Thunderous Doom Powder.

As soon as the name Thunderous Doom Powder was mentioned, the atmosphere in the hall instantly became tense.

The two ancestors of the Red Flame Sect, Zeng Guangyuan and Qian Rong’an, also looked extremely grave.

Zeng Guangyuan and Qian Rong’an had heard of this poison. Only a Fourth-Rank Three-Colored Hundred-Thunder Pill could neutralize it.

Otherwise, death was certain for the poisoned.

Perhaps a Nirvana Realm expert could delay the effects by a few days, but a Reincarnation Realm individual would be dead within a day.

Obviously, Zhao Lengfeng had heard of this poison too. He didn’t even know when he was poisoned. His eyes were filled with resentment, but the pain inside his body made him feel helpless.

Zeng Guangyuan and Qian Rong’an scanned the inner sect elders before them, knowing only those people had access to Zhao Lengfeng, so the poisoner must be among them.

Yet how to remove such a poison was most important now, which left Zeng Guangyuan and Qian Rong’an at a loss. They felt there might be an earth-shattering conspiracy behind this.

Just as the hall was deathly silent.

Ye Chenfeng stood up from his chair. Given that Zeng Guangyuan and Qian Rong’an sincerely called him Master, he didn’t mind giving it a try for the sake of these two old men.

Ye Chenfeng’s abrupt voice resonated in the hall, "Perhaps I can save him."

"Let me try; he might survive."

"If you don’t let me try, you already know the result. He’ll undoubtedly die, and it won’t get any worse than this."
