Seeing this, Yaoyue and Qu Feiyan were all stunned, as was Zhu Wushi on the other side.
Clearly, no one expected that Chu Qinghe, who had just obtained the cultivation method of the "Absorption Technique," would destroy it so easily.
With a furrowed brow, Zhu Wushi spoke up: "What is the meaning behind Young Master Chu's actions?"
In response, Chu Qinghe said calmly, "It's nothing. I just said I wanted to take a look. I glanced at it a few times and lost interest, so that's fine."
Hearing Chu Qinghe's reply, even Zhu Wushi was puzzled by Chu Qinghe's actions.
A few breaths later, Zhu Wushi frowned and said, "Can I consider Young Master Chu's current actions as making things difficult?"
Chu Qinghe said calmly, "It's not exactly making things difficult. This 'Absorption Technique' was originally a consultation fee given to me by the Divine Marquis. How to handle it is my business, isn't it?"
Zhu Wushi frowned slightly, but did not speak.
However, the chilling aura deep in his eyes had subtly diminished somewhat.
Immediately afterwards, Chu Qinghe slowly stood up and began to speak.
"Now that the consultation fee has been received, I would like to trouble you, Divine Marquis, to move this young lady out of the ice coffin!"
"Feiyan, move a hammock and put it in the sun."
"Xiao Zhao, go and get an empty bowl."
Upon hearing the voice, Qu Feiyan nodded and walked into the courtyard.
Xiao Zhao and Qu Feiyan then each acted on Chu Qinghe's instructions.
As Chu Qinghe turned and walked towards the main house, Zhu Wushi also slightly raised his gaze to Chu Qinghe's back. After a moment of thought, Zhu Wushi's gaze shifted slightly downwards to the scraps of paper on the table and the ground that Chu Qinghe had just shredded with his true energy.
A few breaths later, Zhu Wushi also slowly stood up.
However, as Zhu Wushi stood up, the sleeve of his clothes accidentally brushed lightly against the edge of the stone table.
However, the moment the long sleeve touched the table, the scraps of paper on the table mysteriously turned into powder.
Beside her, Yaoyue, who had taken in Zhu's indifference to his actions, sneered inwardly.
His gaze fell on Zhu Wushi, who had walked to the side of the ice coffin, and a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes.
Zhu Wushi paid no attention to Yaoyue's gaze and walked towards the ice coffin.
Zhu Wushi was unaware that, with her back to Yaoyue, Yaoyue's gaze was slightly lowered as she looked at the few scraps of paper left on the ground, her eyes revealing a thoughtful expression.
When Chu Qinghe came out of the room, the small patch of potted plants in the sunlit area of the courtyard had been moved aside, and a hammock had been placed in the empty space.
The woman in red who had been in the ice coffin was now placed on a hammock by Zhu Wushi.
Under the sunlight, the woman in red's face, which was still quite pretty, was completely devoid of color.
Taking the empty bowl from Xiao Zhao, Chu Qinghe poured nearly half of the packet of medicine powder from his left hand into the bowl, then picked up the kettle on the table and added some water.
After using his inner energy to slowly rotate the clear water in the bowl for more than ten breaths, the medicinal powder and the liquid completely blended together, and the original clear water in the bowl turned into a deep red color.
After the medicinal powder had completely dissolved in the water, Chu Qinghe slowly walked to the hammock.
After glancing at the deep red medicine in Chu Qinghe's bowl, Zhu Wushi asked, "Do you need my help?"
Chu Qinghe replied, "It would be good to keep this young lady suspended in mid-air, but Divine Marquis, please restrain yourself and don't use the 'Absorption Technique'."
Hearing what Chu Qinghe said, Zhu Wushi didn't waste any words. He slowly raised his right hand and used his true energy to wrap the woman in red on the hammock, then pulled her into the air and suspended her there.
At the very moment the woman in red was suspended in mid-air, Chu Qinghe's internal energy also circulated rapidly and flowed directly from his fingertips into the bowl through his meridians.
Immediately afterward, in everyone's sight, about two-thirds of the medicine in the bowl in Chu Qinghe's hand was pulled into the ice coffin beside him by Chu Qinghe's true energy.
Seeing Chu Qinghe's actions, Zhu Wushi couldn't help but feel a sense of confusion.
But ten breaths later, when they saw that all the ice needles in Chu Qinghe's hand had been condensed from the medicinal liquid into hair-thin needles, a look of realization appeared in their eyes.
Zhu Wushi was also surprised by Chu Qinghe's act of freezing the medicine into needles.
Here, as the medicine solidified, Chu Qinghe flicked his right hand, and with the surge of special energy and true qi, all dozens of ice needles were driven into the acupoints of the woman in red.
As the ice needles were driven into the woman's body, the woman in red in the air trembled slightly.
Three breaths later, in the sight of Qu Feiyan, Zhu Wushi, and the others, a large amount of mist began to dissipate from the red-clad woman in the air.
However, unlike the previous ice coffin, the icy mist emanating from it was whitish in color.
The mist emanating from the woman's body was a dark bluish-black color.
Seeing the mist emanating from the woman in red, Qu Feiyan nudged Yaoyue and asked, "Sister Yue, how come this girl has so much poison in her body?"
Hearing Qu Feiyan's question, Yaoyue snorted and said, "Guess?"
"Guess? y."
Qu Feiyan was taken aback for a moment, as if she hadn't expected Yaoyue to respond to her like that.
But the next second, Qu Feiyan realized what Yaoyue meant.
