Chapter 296: Neutralizing the Soul-Extinguishing Gu

Lin Feng felt a bit uncomfortable being watched by the two of them.

Liu Qianxue drove very fast, taking only an hour to drop Hu Lili and Cheng Jiajia off at Jiangbei Medical University, then returned to the villa with Lin Feng.

"How is my sister?" Lin Feng asked while getting out of the car.

"She is doing incredibly well. Is she really afflicted with the Soul-Extinguishing Gu? Why do I feel like she is perfectly fine?" Liu Qianxue said.

"Because I used a special method to suppress the Soul-Extinguishing Gu in her body, so it hasn't caused her any harm yet," Lin Feng explained.

Just as he entered the first-floor lobby of the villa, Lin Feng heard a blast of loud television noise.

He saw Lin Wei, wearing pajamas, sitting cross-legged on the sofa, watching TV while eating snacks, her fair, delicate little feet twitching, looking incredibly happy.

"Xiao Wei."

Lin Feng called out, and only then did Lin Wei realize Lin Feng had returned.

"Brother, why are you only just back now!"

Lin Wei shouted, dropped her snacks, jumped off the sofa, and ran toward Lin Feng.

Upon reaching him, Lin Wei threw herself into his arms like a swallow returning to its nest.

Lin Wei was now a Martial Artist, and her strength was immense; caught off guard, Lin Feng was knocked back two steps by her impact and even started coughing.

"Why so much force? Are you trying to kill me?" Lin Feng said irritably.

Lin Wei's cheeks turned bright red instantly.

Lin Feng took out the Juegu Grass and said with a smile, "Look at what this is."

"Could this be the Juegu Grass?" Lin Wei asked, her eyes darting back and forth over the Juegu Grass in Lin Feng's hand.

"Correct, this is the Juegu Grass. Wait a moment, I'm going to prepare the antidote for you now. Once you take it, the Soul-Extinguishing Gu in your body should no longer pose a threat," Lin Feng said with a smile.

"Mm!"

Lin Wei nodded vigorously.

Liu Qianxue walked over and asked, "Do you need any help?"

Lin Feng shook his head and said, "No, you just stay here and keep my sister company."

Having said that, Lin Feng went upstairs and returned to his room.

Although this was Lin Feng's first time handling Juegu Grass and using it to formulate an agent to counteract Gu insects.

But with Qijue Xuannv guiding him from the side, plus his own excellent medical skills and experience, the entire process was effortless for him.

He prepared the agent with fluid, practiced movements, taking less than half an hour in total.

When Lin Feng emerged from the room, he was holding a test tube containing half a tube of golden-red medicinal liquid.

"Xiao Wei, drink this."

Lin Feng shoved the test tube into Lin Wei's hand and said with a smile.

"Is this the antidote made from the Juegu Grass?" Lin Wei asked.

"Mm, stop talking and drink it quickly," Lin Feng urged.

Lin Wei nodded, brought the test tube to her lips, but after tasting only one mouthful, she stuck her tongue out.

"So spicy, why is this medicine so spicy?" Lin Wei said with a bitter little face, her brows tightly knitted together.

Lin Feng said with a smile, "Good medicine is bitter to the taste but good for the illness; don't you understand this principle?"

"But this isn't bitter, it's spicy," Lin Wei said.

"Drink it quickly. I went to such trouble to get you the antidote, and you're still being picky?" Lin Feng said irritably.

Lin Wei then endured the spicy taste and gulped down all the liquid in the test tube.

After finishing the medicine, Lin Wei hurriedly drank a large glass of cold water, only then feeling a bit better.

"How do you feel?" Liu Qianxue asked.

"A little hot..." Lin Wei replied after carefully sensing it.

"Sit down and don't move, I'll check you," Lin Feng said.

Lin Wei nodded obediently and sat down on the sofa.

Lin Feng immediately reached out his right hand, grabbed Lin Wei's slender, snow-white wrist, and pure Divine Dragon True Qi instantly emerged in wisps from his palm, injecting into Lin Wei's body and wandering throughout her system.

Before long, Lin Feng understood Lin Wei's physical condition completely.

The Soul-Extinguishing Gu in Lin Wei's body had already dissolved and vanished under the effect of the Juegu Grass antidote.

With this, Lin Wei had completely recovered and no longer needed to worry about the Gu insect.

Lin Feng then let out a long breath, his hanging heart finally settling back into place.

"Alright, Xiao Wei is fine now," Lin Feng said.

"Then I can rest easy," Liu Qianxue also let out a sigh of relief.

Liu Qianxue had been very nervous earlier.

After all, Lin Feng's current strength was truly too great; he was a Martial Emperor-level expert.

And Lin Feng was also the Fifth War King of Dragon Soul.

If something had really happened to Lin Wei—if she had died because of the Soul-Extinguishing Gu or fallen into an eternal sleep—Lin Feng would definitely have entered a berserk state, and it wouldn't be strange if he did anything.

By then, everything would be beyond saving.

Now that Lin Wei was fine, this was naturally the best outcome.

And at this moment, Liu Qianxue finally dared to report Gao Yun's situation to Lin Feng.

"Lin Feng, Gao Yun has already returned to Binhai City. We contacted the Binhai City Dragon Soul Branch, and the people there have already gone to find the Head of the Family of the Gao Family and Gao Yun to inquire about the situation."

"But because of insufficient evidence, the people from the Binhai City Dragon Soul Branch are finding it difficult to arrest Gao Yun."

Liu Qianxue said, a hint of apology still hanging on her face.

Lin Feng nodded and said, "I understand. When I have the chance, I will go to Binhai City, and I will handle the Gao Family's problem myself."

"You mustn't do anything reckless," Liu Qianxue said hurriedly.

"Am I that kind of person?" Lin Feng retorted.

You clearly are!

Don't forget how the Zhao Family of Jiangbei disappeared!

Liu Qianxue shouted in her heart, but she didn't have the courage to say these words out loud.

"Alright, you can go now. My sister is already fine; you and the Divine Dragon Guard don't need to stay here to protect her anymore," Lin Feng said with a smile.

Liu Qianxue then left with the Divine Dragon Guard.

The night grew deep; Lin Feng went to take a shower, then returned to his room to sleep.

But just as he lay down on the bed, before the lights were even turned off, the bedroom door was pushed open a crack by Lin Wei.

Lin Wei's little head poked in through the crack in the door, her face still flushed red.

"Brother, let's sleep together tonight, okay?" Lin Wei asked.

"You little brat..."

Lin Feng scolded with a smile, but Lin Wei had already closed the door, ran over with a pitter-patter, jumped onto the bed, and burrowed into Lin Feng's quilt.

The night passed in the blink of an eye.

The sky was bright, and the sparrows outside the window chirped incessantly.

As soon as Lin Feng opened his eyes, he saw Lin Wei's cheek right in front of him; Lin Wei's face was chubby, and her sleeping expression was peaceful, which stirred Lin Feng's heart.

Lin Feng then leaned over and kissed Lin Wei on the cheek.

Lin Wei woke up immediately and said shyly, "Why are you sneaking a kiss on me first thing in the morning? Brother, you're so bad."

Lin Feng rubbed Lin Wei's head and said, "Stop with the nonsense, go and make breakfast for me quickly."

Lin Wei then went to the kitchen excitedly and busied herself inside; the sound of pots, bowls, and ladles clanging soon came from the kitchen.
