Chu Feng hurriedly checked Luo Ling'er's body.
Only to discover that she had been afflicted with Gu poison, and it was now taking effect.
It was only now that Chu Feng understood what Elder Miao's dying words meant.
"Xiao Feng, what's happened to Ling'er? She won't be in any trouble, will she?"
Luo Tiancheng said anxiously as he watched Chu Feng.
"I won't let anything happen to Ling'er!"
Chu Feng declared solemnly, laying Luo Ling'er flat on the ground.
He took out nine Golden Needles of varying lengths from his possession,
and inserted them into nine different spots on Luo Ling'er's body.
Chu Feng channeled his internal power into Luo Ling'er's body, attempting to rid her of the Gu poison.
However, this strain of Gu poison was extremely fierce.
It was much more severe than the one that had afflicted Luo Tiancheng previously.
After more than ten minutes, Chu Feng's forehead was already covered in cold sweat.
He appeared considerably taxed.
Finally, Luo Ling'er's body ceased emitting frigid air.
Yet she remained deathly pale and did not regain consciousness.
Phew!!!
Chu Feng exhaled a murky breath and put away the nine Golden Needles.
"Xiao Feng, how is Ling'er? Why hasn't she woken up yet?"
Luo Tiancheng asked anxiously, looking at Chu Feng.
"I've temporarily suppressed her Gu poison,"
"But I still need one more herb to completely eliminate the Gu poison from her!"
Chu Feng stated solemnly.
"What herb do you need?"
Luo Tiancheng inquired.
"Fire Yang Fruit!"
Chu Feng declared.
"Fire Yang Fruit? Where can we find it?"
Luo Tiancheng asked.
"I don't know for the moment."
"However, I will have people investigate where to find Fire Yang Fruit as soon as possible!"
Chu Feng said with a grave voice.
"I will also have someone look into it right away!"
Luo Tiancheng stated.
Afterwards, they took Luo Ling'er back to the Luo Family Mansion and began dispatching people to search for the Fire Yang Fruit.
While the Fire Yang Fruit was not an exceptionally rare and unmatched herb,
it was extremely scarce.
Moreover, it only grew in extremely hot environments, which made it hard to find in short notice.
But Luo Ling'er could only hold on for three to four days.
Therefore, it was essential to find the Fire Yang Fruit within these few days.
Chu Feng also contacted Mr. Sun, asking for his help in the search.
As a renowned physician, Mr. Sun might know where Fire Yang Fruit could be found.
Meanwhile, in the mysterious Miao Territory of Xiang Province,
within a dimly-lit temple, a figure sat cross-legged, their face indiscernible.
At that moment, a middle-aged man dressed in Miao clothes appeared.
He spoke to the shadowy figure with utmost respect:
"Reporting to the Great Elder, Miao Hai's Lifebound Gu Worm is dead."
"Miao Hai is dead?"
The figure seated in the temple uttered a cold, raspy voice, gender ambiguous.
"Find out who killed Miao Hai and locate the Poison Gu People Secret Manual as soon as possible!"
The figure in the temple commanded coldly.
"Yes, Great Elder!"
The middle-aged man nodded and then left the place.
And in Hua Country, within a hidden location,
a secret underground base was emitting sporadic screams.
Here, there were cells resembling prison bars,
with a variety of people locked inside.
They all had crazed expressions, blood-red pupils, and ferocious demeanors.
They were terrifying, like monsters.
In one of the rooms of this underground base,
a young man sat still.
That's when a man around thirty suddenly burst in.
"What is it?"
The young man asked the newcomer coldly.
"Young Master, Elder Miao might be dead!"
The man blurted out.
"What? Dead?"
The youth was startled, his expression darkened.
"That's right, one of the Gu Worms he left with me just died."
"Gu Worms from Miao Territory die when their owners do."
"So it's possible he's already dead!"
The man spoke gravely.
"Start the investigation immediately, find out who killed him, and bring the murderer back to me!"
A cold light flickered in the youth's eyes as he commanded sternly.
"By the way, how's the research going?"
The youth looked at the man and asked.
"So far, the results seem promising but we still need a large number of test subjects."
"Preferably some with a foundation in martial arts!"
The man said somberly.
"I understand, I will handle this!"
The youth responded coldly.
"By the way, Young Master, we're still missing a part of the Poison Gu People Secret Manual."
"We must find the remaining part to have any chance of successfully creating the Poison Gu Person!"
The man said.
"I will have someone find the rest of the Secret Realm of the Poison Gu People as soon as possible!"
The youth stated emotionlessly.
"Poison Gu Person, once I have an army of them,"
"I'd like to see who in Hua Country could possibly stand against me!!!"
A sinister cold smile crept across the mysterious youth's lips.
A hint of sharpness gleamed in his eyes.
He exuded an aura of pride that seemed to scorn Heaven and Earth.
In the blink of an eye, a day went by.
In the Luo Family Mansion, Chu Feng stayed by Luo Ling'er's side the whole time, his expression solemn.
Gazing upon the face that closely resembled Ni Huang's,
Chu Feng's eyes were filled with longing.
"Ni Huang, be at ease, I couldn't save you,"
"But I will make sure your sister doesn't suffer any more harm!"
Chu Feng's eyes showed an unwavering determination as he grasped Luo Ling'er's hand.
At that moment, Chu Feng's phone suddenly rang.
He answered the call, it was from Sun Yuanguo.
"How is it going?"
Chu Feng asked gravely.
"Mr. Chu, according to my investigation,"
"The only place the Fire Yang Fruit could possibly appear is in East Sun Mountain of Jiangnan Lingzhou."
"That place is like a volcano, most suitable for the birth of the Fire Yang Fruit," said Sun Yuanguo.
"Good, I got it. If you find the Fire Yang Fruit, I owe you a favor!"
Chu Feng said and hung up the phone.
"Ling'er, wait for me!"
Chu Feng said as he walked outside.
"Big brother, where are you going?"
Outside the room, Tang Mengmeng looked at Chu Feng and asked.
"I'm going to find the medicinal ingredients to save Ling'er. You take good care of her," Chu Feng said with a firm tone.
Then Chu Feng instructed Yuan Ba and the Sky Wolf to stay and guard the place.
Afterwards, he booked a plane ticket to Lingzhou.
An hour later, Chu Feng boarded the plane to Lingzhou.
"Hey, switch seats with me!"
As Chu Feng sat on the plane, resting with his eyes closed,
An icy and somewhat haughty female voice suddenly sounded.
Chu Feng glanced over and saw a woman standing in front of him, dressed in branded clothes and wearing sunglasses, with an imperious air about her.
"This is my seat. Why should I move?"
Chu Feng retorted with a cold smirk.
"Because I don't like sitting next to other people," the woman huffed arrogantly.
"Sorry, I also don't like sitting next to a woman like you. You should find another place to sit," Chu Feng said dismissively and closed his eyes again.
"You..."
The woman stared at Chu Feng with an angry expression.
"Ma'am, the plane is about to take off. Please take your seat,"
said a flight attendant, approaching the woman.
