"The people from the Sword Inquiry Sect have arrived."

Someone spoke up, and Song Tingwan turned around with delight upon hearing the voice.

Across the vast crowd, she saw Song Siyao standing straight behind Yun Qian, sword in hand, staring at her.

His gaze was strangely complex.

She was taken aback, then smiled at her from afar.

Across the crowd, Song Siyao met her smiling eyes, glanced at Yun Qian and said something, then pushed through the throng and stood in front of her.

Li Sheng was puzzled. "Fellow Daoist of the Sword Inquiry Sect, if you also come to ask for pills, please line up."

Even the number one Sword Inquiry Sect in the Six Realms shouldn't cut in line.

Song Siyao's face darkened, and before she could speak, Song Tingwan pulled her back behind her, saying, "Wait for me a moment."

Song Siyao glanced at Li Sheng indifferently, then stood beside her with a strong presence.

As for the disciple of the Suspended Pot Sect surnamed Chu lying next to him—

Song Tingwan's eyes darkened; her body was turning bluish-purple, and there was no time to lose.

His skin was bluish-purple, his eyes were tightly closed but his eyeballs were moving restlessly, and he trembled with difficulty breathing from time to time.

He extended the spiritual energy in his hand toward Li Sheng's junior brother.

At first, the pale green spiritual energy cautiously circulated within his body, and everything was normal.

That's impossible.

Song Tingwan frowned, pondered for a moment, calmed her mind and gathered her energy, then grasped a ball of pure Five Elements power from the air and used it as a guide to enter her body again.

This time, the moment it entered the body, a chilling aura swept over it, its malice and coldness like a venomous snake tightly coiling around the newly entered spiritual energy.

In an instant, Song Tingwan's face turned deathly pale.

Song Siyao was startled and stepped forward to support her, then looked sharply at Li Sheng.

"What happened?"

After standing there for a long time, Yun Qian finally realized that the cloaked female cultivator was probably his junior sister's older sister.

Seeing that she had concealed her figure and that most of the cultivators surrounding her who were protective of her were dressed as rogue cultivators, Yun Qian did not want to expose her. However, after regaining his senses and seeing that she was swaying weakly, Yun Qian led the disciples of the Sword Inquiry Sect over.

"Junior Sister".

Song Tingwan was, after all, a disciple of their Sword Inquiry Sect; how could she suffer a loss under his very nose?

He forcefully led his fellow disciples into the crowd, standing alongside Song Siyao on Song Tingwan's side, opposing the Xuanhu Sect and others.

Among the rogue cultivators, Shen Tu Changqing and the others glared angrily at Li Sheng. They had finally found a confident alchemist, and they were not about to harm her!

The atmosphere between the two was heavy. After being supported by her younger sister, Song Tingwan habitually popped a Qi-replenishing pill into her mouth and then continued to channel spiritual energy into Fellow Daoist Chu's body.

Her movements were so practiced that they stunned everyone.

No, are all alchemists this reckless?

If you run out of spiritual energy, you must stop immediately. If you continue to use spiritual energy after taking a pill to replenish it, it will not only damage your meridians, but also cause your consciousness to collapse.

This was also the first time Song Siyao had seen her treat someone, and he couldn't stop her even though he had a dark expression on his face.

This person warned her not to let her fighting spirit burn, but she herself didn't change her reckless behavior at all.

For the first time, Song Siyao had the idea of ​​complaining, and she would send a telepathic message to Song Chaoxuan later.

"What do you know? Song's Qi-replenishing pills are different from yours. She won't have any problems using spiritual energy after taking them."

Seeing the shock of many people, the rogue cultivators who had taken the Qi-replenishing pills given by Song Tingwan stood up to explain for her.

"How could that be? It's common knowledge among alchemists that one cannot use spiritual energy for a short period of time after taking Qi-replenishing pills. You must have been deceived."

Some disciples from the sect offered disdainful rebuttals.

"How can you say there isn't? You haven't seen it, yet you dare to say there isn't? Fellow Daoist Song's pills aren't just Qi-replenishing pills; the effects of his other pills are all extraordinary. The Grade Four Bone-Regenerating Pill can not only set bones but also restore shattered bones to their original state. The Rejuvenating Pill can not only heal injuries but also cure old ailments that haven't lasted long..."

Several groups of people started arguing, some insisting that Song Tingwan's pills were effective, while others insisted that what they said was false.

The noise was deafening. When Song Tingwan emerged from the damp, chilly air, she subconsciously frowned.

Song Siyao supported her, who was frail and boneless, and was clearly quite careful.

She never knew that Song Tingwan, who always stood in front of her to protect her, had such thin shoulders and a slender body that she looked like she might break if she was touched too hard.

Yet it is precisely this kind of person who can soften people's hearts and gain their trust in a short period of time.

Whether it was her, whose family ties had already been shaken, or the independent cultivators who had spent a day or two with Song Tingwan.

"I'd like to see what she has to say."

Seeing her open her eyes, the gazes of the rogue cultivators returned to her. The few sect disciples who had been arguing with them crossed their arms and grumbled as they watched with bated breath.

We'll slap those boastful rogue cultivators in the face soon.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Song Tingwan first smiled gently at her sister before looking at Li Sheng.

"Fellow Daoist Chu has had contact with the Yin Corpse?"

That chilling aura seeped into my bones through my meridians, took root in my dantian, and swirled around my spiritual platform.

Song Tingwan had only seen such examples in the lineage of the Dan Ancestor.

Li Sheng was taken aback upon hearing this, then nodded.

"When we went out of the city to kill the demonic beasts, we encountered the demonic beast Yin Corpse outside the city. We barely managed to save our lives by using many spiritual artifacts given to us by the elders of the sect."

This wasn't exactly a secret; they reported it to the city lord after they escaped that day.

Song Tingwan nodded. No wonder that aura was so disgusting.

“He was injured by a Yin Corpse, and the Yin energy entered his body and attacked his spiritual center. You must have been feeding him healing pills before.”

If it weren't for the fact that it seemed really strange and that I often use the power of the Five Elements, I probably wouldn't have been able to figure out the reason.

Her eyes were resolute. Li Sheng looked at her eagerly and pondered for a moment, following her words, "The Yin Corpse... Master said it's poison, we should use... a fifth-grade Poria Pill."
