Chapter 334: Treating the Poison Body
Grand Elder Su Qian couldn't help but swallow hard.
He had traveled across the Zhongzhou continent in his youth, and he knew how respected alchemy masters were.
Moreover, knowing Xiao Ze, he knew that Xiao Ze didn't exaggerate. What Xiao Ze called "minor achievements" probably meant he was among the best eighth-grade alchemists.
"Hahaha, our Jia Nan Academy really benefits from you, Xiao Ze! We not only have a student at the Dou Zun level but also a master alchemist!" exclaimed Su Qian.
"The care of the Grand Elder and all the other elders is something I will always remember. My achievements today are also due to the training I received at the academy," replied Xiao Ze.
Xiao Ze's words filled the elders present with satisfaction. Everyone likes to hear kind words, especially when they come from someone who is both a powerful Dou Zun and a master alchemist.
However, the elders knew well that Xiao Ze's achievements were primarily the result of his own effort. The academy had contributed, but to a lesser extent.
"If it weren't for Old Huo being busy with alchemy, he would have jumped for joy upon hearing that his department produced a master alchemist," commented Huo Qian with a smile.
"Of course! If Old Huo knew of Xiao Ze's current alchemy level, he wouldn't be able to contain his smile," added Su Qian with a nod.
Although the elders joked among themselves, Xiao Ze knew their relationship was very close and didn't need him to say anything more.
"When Old Huo finishes with his alchemy, I also want to visit him. The invitation he gave me to the Alchemist Tower in Zhongzhou has been of great help to me," said Xiao Ze.
Su Qian and Huo Qian repeatedly nodded. Although Xiao Ze's status and strength had grown significantly, he remained humble.
Xiao Ze and his group's return to the Inner Academy caught the attention of the students. Seeing the elders accompanying some young people, some students couldn't help but feel jealous.
"Who are these young people to deserve such a welcome? Are they sons and daughters of some great family?" they murmured.
Noticing the distrust, Huo Qian snorted.
"You arrogant kids! These are your seniors, famous former students of the Inner Academy. A few years ago, they already held the rank of elders!"
Hearing this, the students were stunned. They remembered stories about a legendary student, Senior Xiao Ze.
Suddenly, their gazes changed, filled with admiration and respect, although some still showed defiance.
The former students, like Liu Qing and Lin Xiuya, upon seeing Xiao Ze, recalled the records he had set.
They thought to themselves, the monster has returned!
Xiao Ze paid little attention to the stares, as his level was far above the current students.
After chatting with the elders for a while, Xiao Ze retired to his residence in the Inner Academy.
Stretching, he looked at Xiao Yi Xian. With the matters of Yun Lan Zong resolved, it was time to treat Xiao Yi Xian's Poison Body.
"Qing Lin, Medusa, I need to speak privately with Xiao Yi Xian," said Xiao Ze.
The three women were surprised, but Qing Lin nodded and quickly withdrew. Medusa gave one last look at Xiao Ze and Xiao Yi Xian before leaving.
"Xiao Ze, what is so important that you sent them away?" asked Xiao Yi Xian, somewhat intrigued.
Xiao Ze took her hand, and they sat together. He took a deep breath and said:
"Do you remember that I promised to treat your Poison Body once the matters with Yun Lan Zong were resolved?"
Xiao Yi Xian's eyes sparkled, and she nodded eagerly.
"Of course, I've been looking forward to it!"
"Well, I didn't explain all the details to you. To treat your Poison Body, I need..." Xiao Ze hesitated.
"Is there a problem? Does it require a great sacrifice?" Xiao Yi Xian asked, frowning.
"No, I have a way to guide and treat the poison in your body, forming a symbol to control the poison. But the poison is all over your body..." Xiao Ze said.
Hearing this, Xiao Yi Xian's pale face blushed.
"Do you need... to touch me all over?" she whispered.
Xiao Ze nodded slightly. Although they were already close, this treatment would be even more intimate.
"I will take responsibility," said Xiao Ze, as if making a promise.
Xiao Ze's words made Xiao Yi Xian feel moved, and her eyes welled up with tears.
"Alright," she said with a slight sob.
Xiao Ze smiled and squeezed her hand.
"Tomorrow, give the necessary instructions, and I will start the treatment," said Xiao Ze, dissolving Xiao Yi Xian's doubts.
The next day, Xiao Yi Xian hurried to give the necessary orders for the Dark Alliance. She didn't know how long the treatment would take, so she had to ensure everything was in order.
Soon, Xiao Ze and his group gathered again in the mountains.
"I will be treating Xiao Yi Xian's Poison Body. Take care," he said to Qing Lin and Medusa, who noticed a change in the couple's relationship.
Inside the cave, Xiao Ze prepared to begin treating Xiao Yi Xian's Poison Body.
