Just as Yaoyue was sensing the air spreading through the courtyard, Qu Feiyan, standing under the camellia tree, asked, "Young Master, what level of martial artist is your poison effective against? Is it effective against Grandmasters?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Qinghe slowly said, "It's said that it's been upgraded, so the upper limit of the poison's effect on martial artists must also have increased. This poison is effective even for those below the Celestial Realm."

A martial artist who can reach the Celestial Realm can be said to have taken a half-step into the Dao.

Not only can one's lifespan increase dramatically, but one can also mobilize a small amount of the power of heaven and earth.

If you want to use poison on a master of the Celestial Realm, ordinary poisons really won't have much effect.

However, experts at the Celestial Realm are only found among the top-tier forces in the world.

Even Dongfang Bubai couldn't possibly provoke him, so there's no need to consider it.

If Qu Feiyan had heard Chu Qinghe say that the poison he had prepared in such a short time could even kill martial artists at the Grandmaster and Great Grandmaster levels when she first arrived, she might have doubted whether Chu Qinghe was telling the truth.

But after witnessing Chu Qinghe's medical skills yesterday, Qu Feiyan had no doubt that Chu Qinghe could do this.

After a few breaths, Qu Feiyan rested her chin on her hand and said, "But isn't it a waste of resources to set up this kind of poison at home? It doesn't seem necessary!"

"Hmm~"

However, just as Qu Feiyan finished speaking, a soft and delicate groan suddenly came from above and reached the ears of Chu Qinghe and Qu Feiyan.

The next instant, with the sound of roof tiles colliding and branches swaying wildly, a figure fell from the sky and landed in front of the two with a "bang".

"puff!"

Immediately afterwards, the man spat out a mouthful of blood and then fainted.

Seeing the person suddenly fall from above, not only Qu Feiyan, but even Chu Qinghe was startled and stared in utter astonishment at the person falling from the sky.

A few moments later, Qu Feiyan looked at Chu Qinghe with suspicion and said, "Young Master, you didn't know there was someone hiding upstairs, so you deliberately poisoned him again, did you?"

Chu Qinghe said irritably, "Does my expression look like it?"

After scrutinizing Chu Qinghe's face for a while, Qu Feiyan said with a strange expression, "Young Master, the timing of your poisoning was really timely, just in time to knock out one of them."

Hearing Qu Feiyan's words, Chu Qinghe also looked at the person who had fallen from above with a slightly strange expression.

After pondering for a moment, Chu Qinghe slowly stood up.

As she approached, Qu Feiyan, who had just stood in front of Yaoyue, flipped Yaoyue over from her prone position.

When Yaoyue's beautiful and exquisite face came into view, Qu Feiyan's eyes flickered slightly.

"This lady is so beautiful!"

Not only Qu Feiyan, but Chu Qinghe was also momentarily stunned by Yaoyue's stunning appearance when he looked at her lying on the ground.

He slowly took two steps forward, squatted down, and then placed his hand on Yaoyue's wrist for a few breaths.

A moment later, Chu Qinghe's lips curled into a smile, and his expression as he looked at the unconscious Yaoyue became even more subtle.

"Well, you've inhaled quite a lot."

Noticing Chu Qinghe's strange expression, Qu Feiyan asked, "Young Master, didn't you just say that the poison you used would only turn a martial artist's internal energy or true qi into poison, and that it would cause them to faint?"

In response, Chu Qinghe said irritably, "Can you compare them? I didn't poison them all at once. There are hundreds of kinds of flowers and plants in this yard, plus the medicinal powders I prepared before. The poisons around here haven't completely blended yet."

"This woman has clearly been on the roof since I started setting up these poisons. It's like she inhaled one type of poison I set up. Since the order and quantity of these poisons are not right, the effects of the poisons will naturally be different."

As he spoke, Chu Qinghe was also somewhat speechless.

After letting go of the woman's hand, Chu Qinghe muttered to himself, "But why would a Grandmaster-level martial artist suddenly appear in my house?"

As soon as the words were spoken, Qu Feiyan, who was curiously looking at Yaoyue, suddenly froze and turned to look at Chu Qinghe in utter surprise.

"Grandmaster realm? She's also a Grandmaster realm martial artist?"

Chu Qinghe hummed in agreement.

"If she weren't a Grandmaster-level martial artist, with the amount of poison she inhaled, she would probably be dead by now."

Qu Feiyan looked down at Yaoyue on the ground, her thoughts racing as she couldn't help but ponder, "This girl is so beautiful, and she's also a Grandmaster. Looking across the entire Southwest region, apart from Sister Dongfang, there are only the Grand Master Yaoyue and the Second Master Lianxing of Yihua Palace."

"Judging from her demeanor, could she be the Palace Master of Yihua Palace, Yaoyue Palace?"

Seeing that Qu Feiyan had reacted so quickly and guessed the woman's identity, Chu Qinghe glanced at Qu Feiyan with slight surprise.

"Wow, you reacted pretty quickly."

As he spoke, Chu Qinghe raised his hand and quickly pressed several acupoints on Yaoyue's body.

Then he said to Qu Feiyan, "Go and get a glass of water."

Upon hearing Chu Qinghe's instructions, Qu Feiyan quickly turned around and poured a glass of water from the stone table.

He then took the water glass and poured some medicinal powder into it. After using his internal force to quickly rotate and melt the powder, Chu Qinghe lightly touched Yaoyue's neck.

After Yaoyue opened her mouth, he slowly fed her the water from the cup.

After Qu Feiyan took the empty cup, Chu Qinghe picked Yaoyue up and carried her into a room.

Seeing Chu Qinghe place Yaoyue on the bed and pull the blanket over her, Qu Feiyan couldn't help but ask, "Young Master? Since this girl is Yaoyue, the Palace Master of Yihua Palace, and she was hiding on the roof just now, and we're unsure whether she's friend or foe, why don't you find out her purpose first? What if we save her now and she turns out to be a threat to us after she wakes up?"

In response to Qu Feiyan's question, Chu Qinghe replied lazily, "What else can we do? We'll just drug her again when the time comes!"

Qu Feiyan: "??????"

Qu Feiyan was stunned for a moment upon hearing Chu Qinghe's words.

"Another...another drug overdose?"

Chu Qinghe hummed in agreement.

Qu Feiyan was slightly speechless at his casual attitude and tone.

A martial artist at the Grandmaster level would be a powerful figure anywhere.

In Chu Qinghe's case, he would be just like an ordinary person, easily overdosed by the drug.

Therefore, everyone in the martial arts world despises those who are skilled in using poison.

After all, someone spends their whole life to acquire profound skills, but in the hands of someone skilled in using poison, they can be easily overwhelmed by the drug.

This makes the skills that others have spent decades cultivating seem worthless.

It's somewhat disparaging.
