Heaven-defying Phoenix

The man's voice after the change in tone sounded deep and hoarse, but there was also a hint of chilliness in it. When he spoke, he went straight to the point. He didn't probe them out at all, and just went straight to the point. This was the style that men always had. His eyes were focused on Jiu Muli, and a faint sense of hope and nervousness appeared in his eyes.    

    

The blood curse that had been bothering him for so many years now had hope of being broken for the first time!    

    

The first time he saw Jiu Muli, he knew that she was different from the others. Her medical skills were also a hundred times better than those mediocre doctors in the palace. If there was anyone in this world who could break through the blood curse, then it would definitely be this woman in front of him!    

    

blood curse?    

    

Jiu Muli frowned. She had indeed heard of this before.    

    

That was what she had seen back when she was flipping through Qin Zheng's collection. It was written that the blood curse was an extremely evil type of insect poison, fed with the blood of 108children. With such a secretive and sinister method, the effects of this Gu poison was extraordinary.    

    

The person who was struck by the blood curse turned into a young child from the very beginning and returned to his childhood. He would only turn back to his original form when the moon was full and his body would become worse and worse. Finally, he would turn back into a baby and even a pool of blood!    

    

The conditions for this Gu poison to be here were exceptionally harsh, so it was rarely seen. She had never thought that she would actually be able to see an instance of it in her current life.    

    

She raised her eyes and sized the man up with great interest. The interest in his eyes caused the man to slightly frown.    

    

He forced himself to look up and down like someone was admiring something, but his voice couldn't help but stiffen. "Have you finished reading? Is there any way to resolve this? "    

    

"The solution ?" Jiu Muli dragged her tone as she watched the man's gaze follow her with satisfaction. A shallow layer of apprehension covered her eyes, and she shrugged with a smile, "Of course there is."    

    

What a joke, how could there be an illness that she couldn't cure with her wondrous hands, Jiu Muli?    

    

No matter how rare the Gu poison was, she had her own methods to deal with it.    

    

"Are you serious?" The man's breathing gradually became hurried. The layer of frost on his face instantly melted and was filled with excitement.    

    

All these years, he had begged for medicine and searched everywhere for famous doctors. Even the famous Immortal Doctor was helpless against the poison he had been infected with. After all, the blood curse was indeed an extremely profound and insidious poison. It had always been recorded in history and no one had ever delved into the method to cure it.    

    

Jiu Muli frowned and thought for a while, then after considering the possibility, he slowly spoke out, shook his head and sighed: "I am not confident."    

    

It was like cold water pouring down from the sky, extinguishing the joy in the man's heart. A profound look appeared in his eyes as his heart spun a hundred times. After an intense mental struggle, he finally hardened his heart and said, "As long as I have half a chance, I can give it a try!    

    

A success rate of fifty percent was already considered very high for him.    

    

Jiu Muli smiled like a cunning fox, deliberately keeping silent until the man started to pace back and forth, unable to hide the rise and fall of his heart. Only then did she lazily say, "Although I'm not completely sure, I still have a 90% chance."    

    

"You!" The man's chest heaved violently. Was she toying with him?    

    

However, after a moment, his expression turned to one of joy. He couldn't conceal his joy as he asked, "Are you 90% sure?"    

    

"That's what I can guarantee." Jiu Muli's eyes sparkled as he replied.    

    

A success rate of 90%! This was a rare occurrence among all the famous doctors that he had ever invited. They all refused and hesitated, unwilling to admit that they were no match for him.    

    

However, if they wanted to cure this Gu poison, it was indeed outside their capabilities.    

    

So many old people with white beards didn't dare to protect her. On the contrary, this young girl in front of him had a heroic spirit and grandeur that even the older generation didn't have.    

    

"Alright, then tell me the formula. I'll do my best to look for it." The man's eyes lit up as he spoke full of confidence.    

    

Jiu Muli recounted the prescription in one go, "Because this medicine is fed with the blood of a thousand and eight virgins, the medicinal ingredients needed to solve the problem are extremely minuscule and complicated, a total of a thousand and eight of them. If you do not have confidence, then do not ask anymore. "    

    

"Confidence? I have searched hard for many years, so naturally, I am confident! " His words were sonorous and powerful, and his eyes were sparkling. "In order to cure this illness, I am not afraid even if I have to go through countless hardships!"    

    

The firmness in his words finally caused her brows to loosen slightly as she fluently recited a series of prescriptions.    

    

There were thousands upon thousands of medicinal ingredients, and each one wasn't difficult to come by. The man's heart finally settled down. A few of them were rarer and presumably could be found with a little searching, and not irreplaceable.    

    

Relieved, he promised in a deep voice, "If it's only these medicines, I can gather them in five days!"    

    

Five days, actually fit Jiu Muli's expectations.    

    

However, she shook her head with rapt attention, and her expression froze in an instant. Every word she spat was extremely difficult and heavy, "However, this medicine still needs one last thing, and this is the most important part. Everything can only be displayed with the premise of being surrounded by this thing. "    

    

The man's long eyebrows were locked, and he kept watching her.    

    

"I need a few drops of blood from the person who was poisoned by the Gu poison!" Jiu Muli pondered for a moment, and still cruelly stated her request. She knew that this condition was extremely harsh on the person in front of her.    

    

However, the eyes of the man in front of her that were shining brightly due to wanting to heal suddenly dimmed at this moment, and the radiance in his eyes disappeared without a trace. He fell into a long silence. He hesitated for almost an entire quarter of an hour before making up his mind.    

    

"I will try my best to think of a way, but I'm afraid I won't be able to do it in the near future. When the moon is full, come to Gongquan again! " The man's eyes rippled, his expression was calm.    

    

It was obvious that he was only 25 or 26 years old, yet he was like an old man who had just passed away. His entire body was emitting an ancient aura without any ripples.    

    

Jiu Muli silently cursed in his heart, but he still nodded and promised, "Alright. I'll see you in a month. "    

    

However, to her surprise, the man's expression relaxed. He waved his hand and sent the guest away, saying indifferently, "Since that's the case, then I'll need to return to the palace to meditate. We'll meet again next month."    

    

Hey, hey, if you're done eating then just throw it away.    

    

However, no matter how much she complained in her heart, the man had already slowly stepped into the Gongquan. Closing the door behind him, he shut her out, as if he had cut her off from the rest of the world.    

    

Jiu Muli gritted her teeth so hard they almost shattered outside the door. Until now, she didn't even know the boy's name, but she had taken on such a difficult task for nothing!
