When they found out that Meng Rou'er wanted to see him, they were overjoyed and rushed to Meng Rou'er's residence without hesitation.
And at this moment, Meng Rou'er was listening to a subordinate's report on the specific matter of First Island Owner healing his injuries.
"He actually needs so many precious medicinal ingredients, not to mention he has to treat grandpa's injuries tomorrow."
When she found out that Jiu Muli actually asked the First Island Owner to prepare medicinal herbs and was going to treat his injuries tomorrow, she couldn't help but frown.
"No, even if I believe that you can cure my grandfather, I absolutely can't let you be satisfied."
After a long while, Meng Rou'er finally thought of a good plan. A sinister smile surfaced at the corner of his mouth as he muttered: "If you can't cure her, it will naturally be hard for you to escape death, but even if you have the ability, in the end, I will still not hand over your achievements to you. You want to enter the inheritance grounds and please my grandfather, I will not let you succeed."
At this time, Chen Feng also arrived.
"Chen Feng, it's good that you're here. I have something that I need your help with."
The morning sun was like fire as it sprinkled a golden light on the ground.
When Jiu Muli was still immersed in cultivation, the First Island Owner had already sent someone to inform her that the ingredients were ready and could start to heal her injuries.
Hearing that, Jiu Muli did not hesitate any longer, but when she and Qin Zheng arrived, they led her into a private room.
The secret room was located at the bottom of the cave. When Jiu Muli arrived, First Island Owner and Meng Rou'er were already waiting.
"Thank you, Little Friend." When First Island Owner saw Jiu Muli, he politely smiled.
"It's just an equal exchange. This one also has a request. There's no need to be courteous, Island Lord." Jiu Muli laughed as he spoke, and then asked: "Have you prepared all the medicinal ingredients?"
"Mn, they are all here."
First Island Owner waved his hand, and instantly dozens of medicinal herbs appeared in front of Jiu Muli.
"Wait."
Just at this time, Meng Rou'er said with a gloomy face: "Jiu Muli, let me ask you, if you don't treat my grandfather's injuries, what will happen?"
"I told you. Believe it or not, if your grandfather doesn't believe it, I won't disturb you." Jiu Muli sneered, how could she be provoked? Furthermore, this place was not under Meng Rou'er's control.
When Meng Rou'er heard it, his fury started to rise, and he immediately sneered: "My grandfather trusts you, but I don't believe it. How about this, you and I make a bet, what do you think?"
"Hmm? "How do we bet? What about the stakes?" Jiu Muli raised his brows.
Meng Rou'er smirked and said: "The wager is very simple. If you can't cure my grandfather, I want you to cripple your cultivation to show your punishment."
"Rou Er, stop messing around!" First Island Owner's face was ashen, while he was unwilling to offend Jiu Muli, he also felt that what Meng Rou'er said was reasonable.
Thus, although he reprimanded her harshly, he was not truly angry.
"What? Do you dare to bet with me?" Meng Rou'er snorted coldly, not flinching at all.
Jiu Muli sneered, his eyes flashed, and said: "If I am able to treat it, what should I do?"
"Since it's me who is making a bet with you, even if you win, I will not let you suffer any more, and will also cripple your own cultivation."
"Alright!"
Jiu Muli nodded without hesitation.
"Shut up!" The First Island Owner gave a timely and angry shout, interrupting Meng Rou'er's following words.
Meng Rou'er didn't dare say anything more. Hmph, so what if Grandfather believes in you, I guarantee that you won't be satisfied this time, at that time, I'll just see how you die. After you exhaust your cultivation and fall into my hands, I'll definitely make you beg for death.
However, Jiu Muli was too lazy to continue talking, and said indifferently: "Island Master, let's begin."
After saying that, she placed all of the medicinal herbs into her hands. Upon closer examination, there was nothing wrong with the medicinal herbs. Even though there were twenty-five different medicinal herbs, she harrumphed coldly in her heart and killing intent appeared faintly in her heart.
This was because she realized that something was wrong with the medicinal herbs. Even though they were the medicinal herbs she wanted, each of them was highly toxic. Once the medicinal herbs were absorbed into her body, the poison would also enter her body.
"Who is it!?"
Jiu Muli's heart sank, for such a big matter, the First Island Owner would naturally not delay it, the ingredients were definitely needed to prepare the people he trusted the most, if he betrayed them, it would not be as impressive as now, and when he thought about Meng Rou'er's performance just now, Jiu Muli immediately had a guess.
"Forget about her, let's just try it out first. It's just a trivial poison, it's fine if you don't know about it, but now that I'm aware of it, if you still can't cure it, then you are underestimating me, Jiu Muli."
She sneered in her heart, and then pretended that she did not discover anything, slowly opening the medicinal ingredients, and then the spiritual energy s in her hands shook.
Immediately after, the different medicinal ingredients were shattered, the medicinal liquid was bound by Jiu Muli and gradually melted into a ball.
"I control it precisely."
The First Island Owner praised in his heart. Jiu Muli's technique was not good, but his control over the spiritual energy was extremely precise.
"Island Lord, take this."
Jiu Muli shouted, and with a flick of his finger, the liquid medicine turned into a ray of light and flew straight to the First Island Owner, then, was sucked into his stomach.
Soon after, the spiritual energy on First Island Owner's body surged like floodwaters, and there were even Power of Star mixed within them.
Jiu Muli pressed a hand to First Island Owner's back and said: "Don't resist, just focus on healing."
As the spiritual energy s in First Island Owner continued to rush towards the injured profound vein, the liquid medicine suddenly split. And at that moment, within the injured profound vein, a wave of cold Qi suddenly exploded out, forming a vortex, continuously pushing the liquid medicine out.
The cold yin energy was extremely strange, like maggots in the bones of the legs, even with the First Island Owner's cultivation, he was not able to resist.
"This is something similar to a bloodline curse."
Jiu Muli understood and without hesitation, the silver needle flew out from her sleeve and appeared at her fingertip. Without hesitation, she stabbed it into First Island Owner's body.
One, two...
Four silver needles formed a curved arc in the air. Then, her expression turned solemn as she fiercely pierced the needle again.
Immediately, the evil Yin Qi inside First Island Owner seemed to have been tightly bound, and actually couldn't move at all. Not only that, it had condensed into one.
"Come out!"
Seeing that, Jiu Muli suddenly pulled out a silver needle from the middle, his entire body suddenly slanted.
Just as she turned her body, suddenly a gust of wind flew out from First Island Owner's body, like a hidden force that flew towards Jiu Muli's body.
"Pfft."
In the blink of an eye, the wall of the secret chamber was pierced by the gale and left with a hole.
"What a strong Yin energy."
Seeing this, Jiu Muli sucked in a breath of cold air, but at the same time, his heart relaxed.
That gust of wind was the Evil Yin Qi that was lingering in First Island Owner's body, the main culprit behind his recovery from his injuries.
As the Evil Yin energy was expelled, the injured profound vein in First Island Owner's body continued to absorb the medicinal liquid and recover at an extremely fast rate, while the aura around First Island Owner's body also instantly rose sharply.
"No problem."
Jiu Muli's heart was set. Now, she had finally achieved her goal.
The First Island Owner's profound vein was restored, and its face immediately flushed red, but before he could be happy, his body suddenly trembled, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Grandfather!"
When Meng Rou'er saw this, he cried out in alarm and glared at Jiu Muli: "What's going on, Jiu Muli, what did you do!?"
"Poison!"
First Island Owner staggered and opened his mouth, while speaking, his face turned pitch black, one glance was enough to tell that he was deeply poisoned.
"Ah, Grandpa!"
Meng Rou'er cried out in grief and indignation, glared at Jiu Muli and said: "Bitch, you actually dared to poison my grandfather. Good, good plan."
"Ridiculous, I want to kill your grandfather, I've long since killed him, there's no need to wait for now." Jiu Muli sneered.
"If it's not you, who else would it be?"
Meng Rou'er said, and roared without hesitation: "Men, arrest this bitch."
"Hahahaha, Jiu Muli, no matter how crafty you are, you still fell into my trap. This time, I want to see how you explain yourself."
Meng Rou'er was extremely proud of herself. Earlier that day, when she knew that her grandfather was going to let Jiu Muli treat his injuries, she had thought of a brilliant idea. Even if the poison was added into the medicine, the antidote would still be in her hands.
Once Jiu Muli cured her grandfather's injuries, but was suddenly poisoned, he had a reason to deal with Jiu Muli. After that, she would be able to take out the antidote and naturally become the one who contributed the most, as for Jiu Muli, other than death, she would not have a second ending.
Now that she saw the development of the situation as she had expected, she felt extremely proud of herself.
However, she hadn't been happy for long when she suddenly heard a hearty voice.
"Big brother, I heard you were severely injured, I came to greet you."
Following the end of his words, the door to the secret room shattered with a loud bang, and a few human figures charged into the secret room with the force of a thunderbolt.
"First Island Owner, I haven't seen you for a long time. I wonder if your injuries are serious."
Before Jiu Muli could see the person clearly, another sharp voice suddenly sounded out, following that, there were another few people in the secret room.
"It's all of you!"
First Island Owner was shocked and angry at the same time.
Jiu Muli was also stunned, the two people who came were two old men in embroidered robes. These two looked to be younger than First Island Owner, but their Profound Spirit Qi was extremely dense.
"Second Island Master, third Island Master, you … you actually dared to come to my cave. It seems that you have forgotten the lesson a few years ago!"
First Island Owner's face was gloomy, he opened his mouth coldly, but unfortunately, his aura was sluggish, even though his tone was overbearing, it gave people the feeling that he was strong on the outside but weak on the inside.
Upon seeing this, Jiu Muli immediately understood that this was not a good thing. Without hesitation, he inadvertently used one hand to pull out the dagger from First Island Owner's body.
Since she dared to use poisonous medicinal herbs, how could she not have made preparations? She was just playing the game just now.
"You, why are you guys here!"
Meng Rou'er was instantly dumbstruck and her voice trembled a little. At this moment, no matter how foolish she was, she immediately understood what was going on.
"Chen Feng, you dared to lie to me. You deserve to die, I will kill you!"
She was extremely angry. Even if Chen Feng gave her the poison yesterday and also gave her the antidote, looking at the two Island Masters today, how could she not understand that Chen Feng had betrayed her.
Not only that, the antidote was probably fake as well. Even if it wasn't, she didn't dare to let her grandfather consume it.
