Chapter 258 - 258: Entire Family Poisoned
However, the Holy Maiden replied, “Deacon Chen, there’s nothing I can do about this. The highest-level antidote 1 have is the Level 4 Antidote Pill, the Jade Purification Pill provided by the Alchemy Hall.”
“However, the Alchemy Hall has tried. TheKcan’t cure poison at all. It can only neutralize the Poison Neutralizing Pill and the Poison Cleansing Pill for temporary relief.”
“Deacon Chen, you have to be mentally prepared. This poisoning incident might not be so easy to resolve. Someone did it on purpose.”
“Moreover, this person clearly knows our Alchemy Hall’s standards very well. There’s a high chance that he’s an Alchemist who’s working undercover in the Alchemy Hall.”
“As for your wives and daughters, you should stay at home and take care of them.”
“If there’s a result, I’ll inform you immediately.”
Ning Xian’er said patiently.
Chen An was extremely disappointed, but he still said as gratefully as possible, “Thank you, Holy Maiden.”
The two of them chatted for a while more, and soon, they tacitly stopped talking. They cut off the communication through voice transmission at the right time and began to do their own things.
After returning home.
Chen An immediately went to take care of his wives and daughters.
Seeing that his wives and daughters’ lives were not in danger for the time being, he heaved a sigh of relief.
However, the atmosphere still felt heavy.
His life was not in danger now, but as time passed, it would be hard to say. He had to develop the antidote as soon as possible.
As he thought about this, Chen An left Gu Xinyue’s room and used the Earth Escape Technique to escape to the kitchen.
He went inside to get the water that Gu Xinyue usually used to cook.
He began to study it seriously.
However, after studying it for a long time, he could not figure out anything.
The water did not look strange.
After studying for a while, Chen An came to the chicken coop in the vegetable garden and caught a few lively spirit chickens.
He fed one of the spirit chickens the water he had taken from the kitchen and observed its condition.
In just a moment.
After drinking the water, the spirit chicken swayed and fell to the ground, falling unconscious.
A moment later.
It was killed by the poison.
Seeing this scene, Chen An felt immense pressure.
Whether it was Gu Xinyue, Song Huaying, or his two young daughters, their cultivation levels were still at the Qi Refinement Stage and not very high. He was worried that they wouldn’t be able to last long.
After all, the Poison Cleansing Pill could only treat the symptoms and not the root cause. Who knew if it would produce resistance after being used too much?
In order to reassure his wives and daughters, Chen An captured the water in the kitchen and the spirit chickens in the chicken coop to Gu Xinyue’s door. He wanted to study the antidote in front of his wives and daughters and give them confidence.
“Father, I’m so dizzy…”
“Husband, I can’t feel my feet…”
“Father, I’m hungry…”
“Husband, the effect of the Poison Cleansing Pill has weakened. Little Yuejian Jian, Little Yi Ke, and my sisters’ symptoms are getting harder and harder to relieve.”
“It’s fine. It’s not a big problem. Everyone, don’t panic. I’m a fourth-grade Alchemist. I’ll be able to develop the antidote soon.”
Chen An was experimenting with the spirit chicken while comforting his wives and daughters in the room gently.
At this moment, the painful sounds of his wives and daughters coming from the room from time to time made him feel pressured and motivated.
“The spiritual qi and blood in the poisoned spirit chicken will disappear…”
“It’s useless to take medicinal pills that can recover spiritual qi and blood…”
“Strangely, the spiritual qi and blood that disappeared did not flow out of their body. Instead, it just disappeared…”
As his research deepened, Chen An discovered this strange phenomenon.
He frowned and kept thinking about the reason. Where did the spiritual qi and blood go?
With this thought in mind, it was night time.
At this moment, his wives and daughters’ physical condition was getting worse.
The most serious one was his eldest daughter, Chen Yuejian. She was already lying on the bed unconscious.
“Husband, Little Yuejian saw that she can’t take it anymore. Hurry up and save her!”
Song Huaying was so anxious that she cried. She hugged her daughter tightly and asked Chen An for help. However, her voice was also weak. Her body was so weak that she could not even get out of bed.
Hearing his wife’s cries, Chen An was extremely anxious.
If he couldn’t develop an antidote, his eldest daughter, Chen Yuejian, might die!
Where is it!
Where is it!
Where did the spiritual qi and blood that had disappeared go?!
Calm down!
‘I need to calm down!’
Chen An’s forehead was covered in sweat. He tried his best to calm down and think.
“Husband, Little Yi Ke can’t do it either. Hurry up and think of a way!”
Wen Zhiyun’s cries came from the room, filled with despair.
Chen An was also in despair. Ever since he established his own family, this was the first time he felt so powerless. He wanted to watch his wives and daughters die one by one in front of him.
He calmed down again and tried to think of the reason.
What part of his body could absorb spiritual qi and blood at the same time and completely stop his body from circulating?
Heart?
Kidney?
Liver?
‘Where is it?’
Where exactly was it?
Wait a minute!
This poison is ineffective against Cultivators above the Golden Core realm. 1 want to know what the problem is!
Chen An’s eyes suddenly lit up. He excitedly told his wives and daughters in the room, “Everyone, hold on a little longer. I’ve found the problem. 1’11 be able to refine the antidote in 15 minutes!”
