Chapter 53 (Chapter 53) Dissolving Power Powder

Li Xunhuan was covered in a dense array of negative status effects, the number of which rivaled that of a boss in a siege game.

"Cold (5th floor): It's freezing cold, you feel very cold."

"Physical Weakness (13th Level): The body is weak and the recovery of Qi and blood is slow."

"Fear of cold: Extremely afraid of cold, the buff increases faster in cold weather."

"Heat Fear: Extremely afraid of heat; buffs increase faster in hot weather."

"Alcohol addiction: Enjoying drinking alcohol and feeling uncomfortable if you don't drink for a long time."

"Lovesickness (Level 17): Excessive longing for another person leads to poor mental state and slowed mana regeneration."

Insomnia: Frequently unable to fall asleep at night.

"Loneliness: I always feel lonely and suffer inside."

"Depressed will: extremely low will to live, slow recovery of qi and blood."

This is the first time I've seen so many negative statuses on an NPC who isn't in combat.

Putting aside the cold buff, what the heck are the other buffs? This is the first time she's ever seen a bunch of negative statuses blatantly telling her that the other person doesn't want to live anymore.

"What's wrong?"

Lu Xiaofeng, as expected of someone who had known Xiu for quite some time, froze when he saw her casually point at Li Xunhuan, and his heart skipped a beat.

Showing off his extraordinary encounter, he sighed.

"This is the first time I've seen you like this, Li Xunhuan. I thought you were just sickly before."

As he spoke, he took out the Dissolving Power Powder he had bought earlier and handed it directly to Li Xunhuan.

"Try this and see if it works."

Li Xunhuan was completely baffled when a bottle was suddenly stuffed into his hand. He couldn't help but ask, somewhat curiously.

What is this?

Recalling Chu Liuxiang and Lu Xiaofeng's reactions when they heard about the Dissolving Power Powder, he laughed, showing off his mischievous side.

"Dissolving Power Powder".

Before she could detect any other reaction, Li Xunhuan uncorked the bottle and swallowed the Dissolving Power Powder in one gulp.

"Young Master!"

Tie Chuanjia exclaimed in surprise.

Li Xunhuan waved his hand: "Don't panic, this isn't the real Dissolving Power Powder. Miss Xiu was just joking with us."

"Who said this isn't a Dissolving Power Powder?" Showing off her unexpected encounter, not seeing the reaction she wanted, she pouted: "Its name is Dissolving Power Powder, the real deal!"

"Is that so?" Li Xunhuan asked with a smile, "But why do I feel much lighter on the contrary, instead of feeling my power disappear?"

Show off your extraordinary encounter by checking his character status again.

It was discovered that one layer each of the Cold and Weakness buffs on him had been dispelled, but the other buffs had all failed to be dispelled and remained stubbornly on him.

He pursed his lips, showed off his extraordinary encounter, and took out twelve bottles of Dissolving Power Powder, handing them to Li Xunhuan.

"Because the Dissolving Powder is not used to dissolve negative energy, but to dispel negative states."

She gritted her teeth and said, "You still have twelve stacks of the 'Physical Weakness' buff on you. Try taking twelve more bottles of 'Power-Dissolving Powder' and see. I refuse to believe it really has no effect on your other negative buffs."

Having personally experienced the effects of the Dissolving Power Powder, Li Xunhuan hesitated before speaking.

"This medicine must be very expensive, right? There's no need to waste it on me."

"It's only eighty gold coins a bottle, much cheaper than snacks and medicines."

"Eighty gold?"

Tie Chuanjia exclaimed in surprise.

A bottle of medicine costs eighty gold coins; he simply couldn't imagine what kind of magical object those snacks and medicines that were even more expensive were.

Unlike Ah Fei, who was new to the martial arts world and lacked common sense, he understood how expensive a bottle of medicine costing eighty gold coins was.

But seeing that the young master's face had clearly become much healthier, he still gritted his teeth and advised him.

“Young master, since Miss Xiu has given you this miraculous medicine, please use it. Although we don’t have much savings, with our abilities, as long as we put in a little effort, we can still save up a thousand taels of silver. At worst, we can just pay Miss Xiu back later.”

Lu Xiaofeng, who was standing to the side, also smiled and offered some advice.

"Yes, didn't you say before that friends should help each other? Since you showed off your extraordinary encounter and took out this medicine, it means you must really need it. You shouldn't let her kindness go to waste."

After being persuaded by everyone to drink twelve bottles of the Dissolving Power Powder, he showed off his extraordinary encounter and was satisfied to see that the negative status on his body had indeed decreased significantly.

Now all that's left are three negative states: alcoholism, lovesickness, and depression.

Although the others could not see the specific state of the person, they witnessed Li Xunhuan transform from a pale and weak appearance to one full of energy, with a rosy complexion, and even his cough disappeared. Their hearts were filled with turbulent emotions.

Having personally experienced the effects of this miraculous medicine, Li Xunhuan solemnly gave his instructions.

"Remember never to take out this kind of miracle drug in front of people you don't know well in the future."

"No, even people we know won't do. After all, you can't see into someone's heart, and no one knows if someone might be greedy and kill someone for the medicine."

Showing off his extraordinary encounter, who was least afraid of being killed, he waved his hand dismissively.

"It's alright, it's just some medicine to dispel the ailment. It's no big deal if someone finds out, I'll be fine."

Li Xunhuan could only look at Lu Xiaofeng with worry, hoping that his seemingly more mature friend could also offer some advice.

To everyone's surprise, Lu Xiaofeng just laughed it off.

"Don't worry. In terms of martial arts, even you, who is ranked third on the weapon ranking list, probably can't beat her. She'll be fine."

"Third on the Weapon Ranking?"

Upon hearing the keyword, Xiu revealed her extraordinary encounter and curiously turned to look at Li Xunhuan.

Unexpectedly, his identity was suddenly exposed, and Li Xunhuan gave a bitter smile.

"It's not that I wasn't sincere enough, it's just that I had already made up my mind to leave this world, which is why I didn't mention this matter to you."

As she spoke, she looked at Lu Xiaofeng with some curiosity.

"I can tell you're new to this place, and you've clearly never heard of the Weapon Ranking before. How did you know my identity?"

"And the Plum Blossom Thief from before, I forgot to ask about him." Showing off her adventures was also very curious: "We came together, when did you inquire about the Plum Blossom Thief? How come you know more than me?"

Lu Xiaofeng stroked his eyebrow-like beard and smiled smugly.

"I am Lu Xiaofeng with four eyebrows. So many people ask me for help in investigating cases, so I naturally have the ability to gather information on my own."

He was convinced after showing off his extraordinary experience.

The main characters in the investigations are all immeasurable.

Back then, she painstakingly followed the guide and spent so long to confirm the identity of the Embroidered Bandit. Lu Xiaofeng had already suspected Jin Jiuling on his own, which made her admire Lu Xiaofeng's abilities.

"That's right, people who are good at investigating cases will definitely try to find out information."

As he recounted his extraordinary adventure, he patted Lu Xiaofeng on the shoulder with satisfaction, feeling that his choice had been absolutely correct.

"With you here, we can easily take down the little plum blossom thief."

Lu Xiaofeng, who was being given high hopes, smiled smugly. Looking at the other person's smile, a sudden inspiration flashed in his mind.

Open the toy box, take out the Maitreya Buddha statue, select Li Xunhuan, and click "Use".

Hahahahahaha.

A burst of laughter erupted, and the others looked at Li Xunhuan with curiosity.

Feeling uncomfortable under such scrutiny, Li Xunhuan shifted his fingers awkwardly and explained, "I don't know why, but I suddenly felt like laughing just now."

Hahahahahaha.

He burst into laughter again as soon as he finished speaking.

The group then realized something was wrong, and the perceptive A-Fei quickly asked.

"Is this a side effect of the medicine we just took? It makes me laugh uncontrollably?"

Having witnessed the extraordinary and miraculous encounters of Xiu, Lu Xiaofeng looked at her with suspicion: "You did this?"

Regrettingly putting away the Maitreya Buddha, he nodded, showing off his extraordinary encounter.

"Isn't it said that a smile makes you ten years younger? I noticed that Li Xunhuan was in a negative state of depression, so I thought that using Maitreya Buddha to make him smile more might make his depression disappear, so I gave it a try."

"Maitreya Buddha?"

"It's just a little toy that can make people laugh out loud."

Lu Xiaofeng, who had tacitly ignored the fact that he was feeling down, asked curiously.

"You're hiding something amazing? Let me try it out!"

Ah Fei, with his youthful spirit, didn't speak, but his eyes were full of curiosity.

Showing off his extraordinary encounter, he generously used the Maitreya Buddha on each of them one by one.

Hahahahahaha.

Laughter echoed from the woods, shaking the snowflakes off the trees.

Similarly, this also attracted their enemies, who searched for them in vain.

A brightly dressed, ugly dwarf appeared behind them.

"People only know that Li Xunhuan's flying daggers never miss, but they don't know that he is as timid as a mouse and runs away as fast as he can."

"They stole someone's things and ran away. We chased them for dozens of miles before we caught up with them."

Li Xunhuan was immediately accused of being a thief, but Lu Xiaofeng, who had also experienced similar situations frequently, was the first to react.

"Who are you? How dare you falsely accuse an innocent family without any reason?"

"And who are you?" The ugly dwarf, dressed in red and wearing a bracelet, asked arrogantly, "Does an unknown nobody have the right to speak to us, the Five Poison Children?"

"The Five Poison Child?" Showing off his extraordinary encounter caught his attention.

"From Miao territory?"

The Five Poisons Child opposite him nodded arrogantly: "You do have some knowledge."

"Hahaha."

Hearing this, Xiu Chuqiyu couldn't help but laugh.

This plan is pretty good!

The last time it was their Seven Show Sect that was attacked, the last time it was the Beggars' Sect and Shaolin, and this time it's the Five Poisons Sect's turn.

She could already imagine the reactions of the other Five Poisons Sect players when they reached this level and encountered this ugly Five Poisons Child.

Haha, what goes around comes around, and no one escapes the wrath of Heaven.

The Seven Show Sect was ridiculed by other sects, and now it's the Five Poisons Sect's turn. Presumably, other sects will also suffer setbacks in the future.

Thinking of this, Xiu Chuqi looked at the Five Poison Child opposite her with much more sympathy.

"It's not your fault that you're ugly, but it's your fault that you have no class and dare to associate yourself with the Five Poisons!"

"you!"

Enraged by the revelation of his extraordinary encounter, the Five Poisons Child on the other side also forgot his original plan.

He pulled out a handful of powder and threw it in the direction where they had shown off their extraordinary encounter.

"Be careful," Lu Xiaofeng, with his rich experience, immediately warned the others.

The people present were all martial arts masters, and they dodged the attack with great agility.

He was so busy showing off his amazing encounter that he was too slow to get past the system's upgrade prompt.

But that's okay, it's very common for players to stand and fight monsters.

Open the martial arts assistant and show off your unexpected encounters for automatic counterattacks.

She hadn't removed the dragon blood whetstone from her sword yet; she was just losing blood due to poisoning, and it would be absorbed back in a little while.
