Divine Doctor Xue and Lin Chen, the old and the young, were engaged in a warm conversation.

Bian Suwen, concerned, interjected, “Let’s deal with the urgent matters first. After we resolve this, you can chat as much as you like.”

“Yes, yes, Master Aunt is right,” Divine Doctor Xue agreed quickly.

Lin Chen also nodded, promptly ceasing his conversation with Divine Doctor Xue.

“Follow me,” Bian Suwen instructed, leading Divine Doctor Xue to the entrance of an intensive care unit.

Wang Haoran and the others followed. As Bian Suwen was about to lead Divine Doctor Xue into the ward, Lin Chen said, “Third Sister, let me go in and take a look too.”

Lin Chen had some medical knowledge.

Hearing this, Bian Suwen thought for a moment and then agreed.

Wang Haoran offered no objections either.

Lin Chen’s medical skills came from the Prodigy System, so his level of expertise couldn’t be all that high. After all, Lin Chen had failed to showcase his skills multiple times, limiting the points he accumulated. It was almost impossible for him to exchange for the highest level of medical expertise.

Moreover, if Lin Chen truly possessed such advanced medical skills, he would have already showcased them by curing someone, rather than troubling Bian Suwen to bring Divine Doctor Xue for assistance first.

With these thoughts in mind, Wang Haoran felt at ease.

While Wang Haoran was pondering this, Bian Suwen, Lin Chen, and Divine Doctor Xue entered the intensive care unit.

Bian Suwen had already assessed the situation, so further examination wasn’t needed.

Lin Chen inspected the patient and remained silent as he realized he couldn’t help.

Divine Doctor Xue also conducted an examination, his expression quickly turning grave as he looked at Bian Suwen.

“Indeed,” Bian Suwen nodded. “Last night, the Poison Sect’s Saintess, Shao Wanwan, challenged me.”

“Is this Shao Wanwan out of her mind?! She actually dared to use the Poison Sect’s forbidden poison,” Divine Doctor Xue exclaimed in horror.

“Forbidden poison, you mean…” Upon hearing Divine Doctor Xue’s words, Bian Suwen recalled some ancient texts she had read in the Medical Immortal Valley.

Divine Doctor Xue’s face was filled with shock and fear. “Yes, it’s the ‘Poison Feather Blood Prison.’ Once this poison erupts, the victim will explode and die, their blood turning into a mist that merges with the air, rendering the air within ten kilometers poisonous. Any creature, even if it inhales just a trace, will be infected with the ‘Poison Feather Blood Prison’ poison.”

“And the toxicity of this secondary poison not only doesn’t weaken but even strengthens. As the secondary victim’s poison erupts, it contaminates an even larger area. In this endless cycle, the world could become a living nightmare.”

“The Poison Sect’s initiates are simply mad!”

“Poison Feather Blood Prison…” On hearing Divine Doctor Xue’s words, Bian Suwen’s expression turned pale as well.

In fact, she had suspected this earlier, but her limited understanding of such forbidden poisons made her underestimate Shao Wanwan’s ruthlessness, which held her back from drawing any conclusions.

However, Divine Doctor Xue, being older and having spent more time with his senior brother, naturally knew more about the Poison Sect’s forbidden poisons.

Since he said so, Shao Wanwan must have used the ‘Poison Feather Blood Prison.’

“Burying the poisoned person underground wouldn’t stop the spread?” Lin Chen, letting his imagination run wild, suggested.

“If it were that simple, it wouldn’t be a forbidden poison,” Divine Doctor Xue replied.

“Aren’t you divine doctors? Can’t you detoxify this poison?” Lin Chen questioned, observing their expressions.

“Young friend, even if my master were alive, he would find this poison troublesome,” Divine Doctor Xue sighed.

Lin Chen continued, “This poison was made by humans, so there must be an antidote. I refuse to believe there’s a poison in this world that can’t be cured.”

Hearing this, Divine Doctor Xue nodded, “You’re right. The only one who can easily detoxify the ‘Poison Feather Blood Prison’ is probably the Poison Sect Ancestor.”

Bian Suwen exclaimed, “That Poison Sect Ancestor is a contemporary of my senior brother, probably over 150 years old. How could he still be alive?”

Divine Doctor Xue explained, “My master respected nature and viewed life and death with equanimity, never considering reversing his own life and death.”

“But the Poison Sect Ancestor is different. His philosophy is to defy the heavens. When my master was alive, he mentioned that the Poison Sect Ancestor was refining a rejuvenation elixir. For many years, there was no news of the old ancestor’s death from the Poison Sect. It seems he successfully refined the rejuvenation elixir and is still alive.”

If the position of the Poison Sect’s leader is vacant, why hasn’t the Poison Sect noticed anything if the old ancestor is still alive? Bian Suwen questioned.

Divine Doctor Xue replied, “The Poison Sect’s talents have dwindled, and their successors are not as competent as those in the Medical Immortal Valley. They can’t detoxify the forbidden poison either, so they never dared to use it lightly, fearing it would endanger the world and provoke other hidden sects to unite against them…”

Hearing this, Bian Suwen fully grasped the situation, feeling shocked and not listening to the rest of the conversation.

But Bian Suwen was already certain that the Poison Sect Ancestor was still alive.

And judging from Shao Wanwan’s actions, it was clear she had only recently learned this news.

No wonder Shao Wanwan was so confident; she had such powerful backing.

The Poison Sect Ancestor…

A sense of helplessness rose in Bian Suwen’s heart. Such an ancient being was far beyond her ability to contend with.

Could it be that the Medical Immortal Valley would decline and fall into obscurity?

At this thought, she couldn’t help but feel deep sorrow.

The previous old medical immortal of the Medical Immortal Valley, although nominally Bian Suwen’s senior brother, had actually taken her as a disciple on their master’s behalf.

In a sense, Bian Suwen and the old medical immortal were like mentor and disciple.

When the old medical immortal passed away, Bian Suwen vowed to uphold the Medical Immortal Valley’s legacy and not let it wither away under her leadership.

And now…

“Master Aunt…” Sensing Bian Suwen’s emotions, Divine Doctor Xue also felt profound sorrow.

“I am the Valley Master of the Medical Immortal Valley. Even if I die, I cannot let the Medical Immortal Valley’s reputation fall,” Bian Suwen’s expression showed a hint of determination.

Divine Doctor Xue understood, seeing that Bian Suwen intended to try her best to neutralize the poison, and he immediately gathered his spirits, respectfully saying, “Please instruct me, Master Aunt.”

“If anything happens to me, you will be the next Valley Master,” Bian Suwen took a deep breath and sat beside one of the poisoned girls.

“Master Aunt, you mustn’t!” Divine Doctor Xue was shocked and wanted to stop her immediately.

However, Bian Suwen acted so quickly that it was too late.

Bian Suwen used a silver needle to prick the girl’s finger, staining it with a trace of blood. Using her true energy, the silver needle emitted a black-red gas.

Bian Suwen inhaled all the black-red gas, and almost instantly, her face turned dark.

The Poison Feather Blood Prison poison was peculiar; even a trace was enough to poison someone. After a few days, it would erupt with terrifying destructive power.

In other words, Bian Suwen was now in the same condition as the other poisoned individuals, but her inner strength cultivation gave her higher resistance than ordinary people. Even though she was poisoned, she didn’t immediately lose consciousness.

Of course, dizziness was unavoidable.

“Third Sister!” Lin Chen cried out in panic, realizing something was wrong.

“Young friend, don’t get close, or you might get poisoned too,” Divine Doctor Xue quickly warned.

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen halted his approach towards Bian Suwen, feeling anxious yet helpless.

“Remember what I tell you,” Bian Suwen, enduring the symptoms, instructed Divine Doctor Xue.

Divine Doctor Xue, as an expert, naturally understood that Bian Suwen intended to test the poison on herself to understand its components and then create a tailored antidote.

This was indeed a method, but it was extremely risky.

However, the situation had already reached this point, and there was no turning back.

With this in mind, Divine Doctor Xue swiftly said, “Please speak, Master Aunt.”

“Zhen poison, black mulberry leaves, green aconite, Tibetan red beard…” Bian Suwen slowly listed several poisons but abruptly stopped after naming four, as she suddenly felt her blood surging with a sensation of bursting from her body.

Bian Suwen was shocked.

This was the precursor to the eruption of the Poison Feather Blood Prison poison!
