Hearing what Lu Xiaofeng said, Hua Manlou nodded and said, "That's right, I feel the same way."
Lu Xiaofeng looked at Hua Manlou in surprise and said, "You feel the same way?"
Hua Manlou nodded and said, "The fact that those two girls could bring such a strong sense of pressure to you and me suggests that they are not ordinary people. They are very likely to be Grandmasters."
Lu Xiaofeng muttered, "In the Great Ming Dynasty, the only Grandmaster-level experts who are this young and exceptionally beautiful are Dongfang Bubai, who recently went to Bright Peak in the south, Yaoyue of the Yihua Palace, and Shuimu Yinji of the Shenshui Palace. But the Sun Moon Cult has been making quite a few moves lately. It is said that a few days ago, Dongfang Bubai personally destroyed the Blood Blade Sect, which is a second-rate force. If it's not Dongfang Bubai, could those two be Yaoyue of the Yihua Palace and Shuimu Yinji of the Shenshui Palace?"
Hua Manlou asked, "Is that a likely possibility?"
Lu Xiaofeng sighed and said, "If those two young ladies are truly Grandmaster level experts, then these two are probably the only ones who meet the requirements."
After pondering for a few moments, Hua Manlou frowned and said, "Judging from where we are sitting, Young Master Chu and the others in the courtyard all have the same fragrance. Moreover, Young Master Chu and the two girls beside him have almost the same scent. Unless they are in close contact frequently, their scents cannot be so similar. If it is true that the Water Mother Yin Ji of Shenshui Palace and the Grand Palace Master Yao Yue of Yihua Palace are both in love with the same man, it is truly astonishing."
Upon hearing Hua Manlou's words, Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help but picture Chu Qinghe's handsome face, which made him feel ashamed of his own appearance. He then pursed his lips and said, "Perhaps it was lust at first sight!"
"Lust at first sight?"
Upon hearing Lu Xiaofeng's words, Hua Manlou turned to face Lu Xiaofeng with a hint of doubt on his face.
After a slight pause, Hua Manlou said, "Judging from your somewhat sour tone, that Young Master Chu was quite handsome?"
Lu Xiaofeng wanted to say something to object, but when he thought of Chu Qinghe's handsome appearance, he couldn't bring himself to say those words against his will.
He then sighed softly and said, "Yes! Even Jiang Feng is probably just like that!"
Hearing Lu Xiaofeng use "Jiang Feng" as a comparison when describing Chu Qinghe, Hua Manlou raised an eyebrow and said, "It seems that this young master Chu's appearance is indeed beyond the reach of ordinary people, otherwise even someone as narcissistic as you, Lu Xiaofeng, wouldn't be so amazed."
Lu Xiaofeng pursed his lips but did not refute Hua Manlou's words.
After pondering for a few moments, Hua Manlou shook his head and said, "Both Shenshui Palace and Yihua Palace are top-tier forces, but now, the Palace Master of Shenshui Palace and the Grand Palace Master of Yihua Palace are both by the side of the same man. I wonder what kind of uproar such news will cause if it gets out."
However, after Hua Manlou finished speaking, he did not hear Lu Xiaofeng's response for a long time.
In response, Hua Manlou couldn't help but ask, "What are you thinking about?"
Lu Xiaofeng said, "I was wondering why that guy surnamed Chu suddenly asked me those two questions."
Hua Manlou: "Are you worried that he might harm Master Mu?"
Lu Xiaofeng sighed and said, "I don't know, but that young master surnamed Chu has two experts by his side, Yaoyue and Shuimu Yinji, and he also has a strange poison that even you can't deal with. If he really wants to harm Master Mu, I'm afraid Master Mu can't do anything about it and can only give him a warning."
Just as the two were talking, a strange noise came from here.
Lu Xiaofeng quickly looked at the bed and saw that Sikong Zhaixing, who had fainted earlier, had now woken up.
After struggling to sit up in bed, feeling slightly weak, Sikong Zhaixing was taken aback when she saw Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou in front of her. She quickly touched her body and then began to circulate her inner energy.
"Huh? The poison is gone?"
Upon hearing the voice, Lu Xiaofeng said, "Heh, you've been cured of your poison, but Hua Manlou and I are now burdened with debt again."
After confirming with Lu Xiaofeng that she had been cured of the poison, Sikong Zhaixing felt relieved and opened her mouth to respond.
However, just as Sikong Zhaixing opened his mouth, before the words could even escape his throat, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Immediately afterwards, Sikong Zhaixing fell straight back, her body trembling uncontrollably, her face turning pale and then flushed, and a look of pain appeared on her face.
"Lu Xiaoji, didn't you say the poison in my body was cured? Why is this happening?"
Noticing Sikong Zhaixing's change, Hua Manlou immediately sat down and began to examine him.
A moment later, Hua Manlou asked, "What color was the blood that Sikong Zhaixing just spat out?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Xiaofeng quickly glanced at the mouthful of blood that Sikong Zhaixing had just spat out and said, "Black with a hint of red."
Hua Manlou nodded and said, "Judging from the pulse, Sikong Zhaixing's pulse is more stable than before, which means that some of the poison has indeed been eliminated. It seems that once the color of the blood Sikong Zhaixing vomits returns to normal, the poison in his body will be completely cleared."
As Hua Manlou's words reached his ears, Sikong Zhaixing's voice, noticeably hoarse, slowly rang out.
"what is going on?"
Lu Xiaofeng looked at Sikong Zhaixing with a mocking expression and said, "The guy who poisoned you said that the poison would be completely expelled in twenty-four hours, but the process would be a bit painful. Now it seems that every time you vomit blood, the toxins in your body will decrease a little."
Upon hearing this, Sikong Zhaixing looked horrified and exclaimed, "What? This condition is going to last for another twenty-four hours?"
Seeing Sikong Zhaixing's reaction, Lu Xiaofeng asked curiously, "How are you feeling right now?"
