The True Heiress Is The Real Bigshot-Chapter 692 - 575 Fu Yunshen Protective Shortcomings [1 Update]

Patriarch Meng doesn’t need to worry, and neither do the other practitioners of Ancient Medicine.

The Energy Dissipating Pill isn’t really considered a poison; it merely temporarily seals one’s Inner Strength, without much effect on the body.

As a Level Four Member of the Pill Alliance, Ying Zijin was just able to produce the Energy Dissipating Pill, which indeed matched her current level of skill.

The Great Elder stroked his beard, thinking to himself that once he returned to the Pill Alliance, he should provide Ying Zijin with a few elixir formulas similar to the Vein Fragmenting Pill, so that she would have the ability to protect herself in the future.

Ninety percent of Ancient Medicine practitioners possess no Ancient Martial Cultivation, but they can protect themselves with the Gold and Silver Needles and elixirs.

"Hey, doesn’t this mean it’s a tie? If it’s a tie, how should they compete?"

"It seems like they have to check which of the two pills is more toxic, and whoever has the more potent one wins."

But at that moment, Meng Qingxue’s complexion suddenly turned pale, and her body began to tremble violently.

The smile had not yet faded from Patriarch Meng’s face when his expression changed dramatically, "Qingxue!"

Meng Qingxue spat out a mouthful of blood.

"..."

The sight left the crowd in shock and silence.

The Great Elder hadn’t expected Meng Qingxue to fail even at producing the antidote for the Energy Dissipating Pill, and still somewhat dazed, he hadn’t reacted yet.

Patriarch Meng quickly took to the stage, snatching the antidote that Ying Zijin had prepared from the hands of the Great Elder and immediately fed it to Meng Qingxue.

However, by this time, the poison had already taken effect, and administering the antidote was still a step too late.

Meng Qingxue spat out another mouthful of blood, her face as white as paper, and her breathing weakened.

Her lips trembled, and she struggled to swallow the antidote.

This antidote did indeed have a quick effect; after Meng Qingxue took it, her face gradually regained some color, but her fingers were still shaking.

Clearly, the strength of her body at this moment couldn’t withstand the power of the medication, and the two mouthfuls of blood she spat out had greatly depleted her vitality.

Everything happened so fast that the people below the stage couldn’t react in time.

"At such a young age, to be so ruthless!" Patriarch Meng swept a cold glance over, "It’s only a competition, it should stop at the right point. Is there a need to push so hard?"

"Or, are you really so afraid that Qingxue will beat you, making it impossible for you to maintain your status in the Ancient Medical field, worrying about losing face in front of your man, and feeling aggrieved?" freёnovelkiss.com

"Yes, it’s just a competition," Fu Yunshen stepped forward, standing in front of the girl, his eyes cold, yet he was smiling, "If the person who had the accident today was reversed, would you still say such things?"

Patriarch Meng was at a loss for words.

The person who had the accident reversed?

He would certainly say that this is the rule of the competition, and who could be blamed if one’s skill was inferior?

"As for losing face?" Fu Yunshen turned his head. "Ah, no, not at all. My girl, I like her no matter what, I even hope she is weaker so that she can rely completely on me, I couldn’t ask for more."

That one sentence caused Meng Qingxue, who had only just regained some color in her cheeks, to turn pale once again, and blood spilled from the corner of her mouth.

The third time she spat blood was not because of the medication, but because she was greatly agitated emotionally.

Seeing Meng Qingxue in this state, most people didn’t dare to linger, and one by one, they found excuses to leave.

What if the Meng family blamed them for the incident later?

Patriarch Meng clenched his fists and let out another cold snicker, "Great Elder, aren’t you going to test the toxicity of the two pills? The Vein Fragmenting Pill is already an existing formula, but what about the pill she refined?"

He pointed at Ying Zijin, "I suspect, she is an evil doctor! Otherwise, how could a proper Energy Dissipating Pill cause someone to vomit blood?"

The Great Elder spoke with a cold tone, "Patriarch Meng, watch your words. It was already thoroughly examined that day, and Elder Foo Xi also stated that Miss Zijin is not an evil doctor. If she were, would she have concocted an antidote?"

Patriarch Meng had no words to counter.

But the toxicity of the two elixirs did indeed need to be examined.

The Fourth Elder took the remaining residue of the pills to test them.

Soon, the results were out.

"This elixir is indeed still the Energy Dissipating Pill, only its property is cold. As for toxicity, there is none at all, not even comparable to the Vein Severing Pill," said the Fourth Elder of the Pill Alliance, "If Miss Qingxue had produced the correct antidote, there wouldn’t be any issue at all."

In short, Meng Qingxue’s skills were not up to standard, not that Ying Zijin had any intention of causing harm.

Patriarch Meng’s expression changed once more.

Still the Energy Dissipating Pill?

And non-toxic, to boot?

How is this possible?

Fourth Elder continued, "Moreover, if Miss Qingxue’s body were healthy, even without taking the antidote in time, at most she would experience stiffness in the limbs and be unable to move; there would definitely be no pain."

An Ling was taken aback, "Just by switching the order of the herbs, the nature of the medicine changes, and even the antidote has to be modified accordingly?"
