Chapter 225: Detoxification
The sudden, warm, fragrant, and soft embrace filled Li Luo's arms, leaving him stunned for a moment, but before he could enjoy this wonderful feeling any further, Jiang Qing withdrew.
Li Luo felt as if his heart had suddenly gone empty.
He smacked his lips and said with dissatisfaction, "That was too short."
Cai Wei walked over with a smile and teased, "Young Manor Master, don't be in such a hurry. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future. Just perform well, and why worry about not having more enjoyment?"
"Besides..."
Her slender, jade-like fingers pointed at the other detoxification potions, and she said, "There are still so many detoxification potions that haven't been 'dotted with the eyes' yet. Young Manor Master, can you... handle it?"
She blinked her charming eyes, full of smiles.
Li Luo looked at the detoxification potions filling the space, his heart twitched slightly, and his palm involuntarily touched his waist, then he gritted his teeth and said, "Don't you dare say the words 'can't handle it' to me!"
Then he grabbed the other detoxification potions and began the "dotting of the eyes."
For the next half hour, Li Luo almost completely drained his own resonant power, and the result was that these detoxification potions were all "dotted with the eyes" by him.
When the last vial of detoxification potion was finished, Li Luo sat on the chair, somewhat exhausted, feeling his whole body soft and sore.
Cai Wei clapped her hands with a smile, expressing praise and recognition for the Young Manor Master's endurance.
Yan Lingqing thoughtfully poured a cup of hot tea for Li Luo and said, "Young Manor Master, this is ginseng tea prepared for you. Drink more to replenish yourself."
Li Luo rolled his eyes, drank the ginseng tea in one gulp, and after regaining some strength, he forced himself to stand up and said, "There is no time to lose. Prepare to take the detoxification potions out for use."
Jiang Qing nodded, opened the door, and ordered people to move all these detoxification potions out.
Outside the room, Qin Wang and the other therapists had not yet left. They looked at the detoxification potions being carried out, their eyes full of astonishment. They did not understand what Xiyang House was going to do with these semi-finished detoxification potions.
Especially Qin Wang; his gaze flickered slightly, and then an inexplicable smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, assuming this was just an irrational act by Li Luo in a desperate situation.
However, Li Luo and Jiang Qing paid no attention to him, but instead instructed Elder Zheng Ping, who was waiting outside, "Distribute these detoxification potions to the poisoned victims."
Elder Zheng Ping was stunned. Although he did not know what had happened inside the room, he had previously learned from these therapists that the detoxification potions this time did not seem to have succeeded.
"Yes."
However, although he was doubtful in his heart, out of trust in Li Luo and Jiang Qing, he still nodded, then summoned people to help take these detoxification potions away.
The poisoned victims were now all lying in the courtyard in front of the house. A foul, fishy odor emanated from their bodies, and their skin was covered with black spots, clearly indicating that the poisonous gas had eroded them deeply.
The surrounding area was crowded with some resonance refiners from the headquarters, all with worried expressions. They now knew how much attention this matter had attracted in Daxia City. If these branch resonance refiners were really allowed to die in the headquarters today, it would likely have a devastating impact on the reputation of Xiyang House.
At this moment, Elder Zheng Ping led people to pour all those detoxification potions into the mouths of Tang Yun, Lu Xiaofeng, and the others.
All eyes were cast over nervously.
Even Li Luo and Jiang Qing had some nervousness in their eyes. Although the previous poisonous blood had indeed been neutralized, everything still had to be judged by whether these poisoned victims could truly be detoxified...
The courtyard was silent, and the air seemed to have solidified at this moment.
It wasn't until more than ten minutes later that someone suddenly burst into an exclamation: "The poison spots on their bodies seem to be fading!"
The exclamation caused a stir, and then more and more people discovered that the poison spots on Tang Yun and the others were indeed fading.
After another moment, the poison spots on their skin had completely dissipated.
Wah!
Suddenly, a poisoned victim opened their eyes and, with a "wah" sound, spat out a mouthful of foul-smelling black poisonous blood; the odor was unpleasant.
Wah, wah!
More and more poisoned victims began to wake up and spit out black blood. However, this time the vomiting made all the resonance refiners at the headquarters overjoyed, because they knew this meant the toxins in their bodies were being expelled!
Those detoxification potions were indeed useful!
Fierce cheers resounded at this moment.
Li Luo and Jiang Qing were also relieved, letting out a complete sigh of relief.
And if Li Luo and his group were relieved, then Qin Wang and the other therapists were completely bewildered. They looked at the poisoned victims who were spitting blood and waking up, and the confusion on their faces almost drowned them.
What happened?
The detoxification potions these people had taken earlier were indeed developed by them, but... how could they have such an effect?
Moreover, what they left behind were only some semi-finished detoxification potions!
After they left, what exactly happened in the room?
The curiosity in Qin Wang's heart was like a mouse scratching, and then he couldn't help but let out a dry laugh and said, "Young Manor Master, Miss Jiang, what is going on here? The detoxification potions we left behind seemed to be only semi-finished, right? How could they have such an effect?"
Li Luo glanced at him and said with a smile, "Could it be that it is precisely because they are semi-finished that they have such miraculous effects?"
Qin Wang gave an awkward smile, while inwardly cursing, *Bullshit, how could semi-finished products have miraculous effects? Who are you trying to fool?
However, it was clear that Li Luo did not want to tell him the secret, and there was nothing he could do. Moreover, the gaze Li Luo used to size him up seemed a bit sharp, which made Qin Wang, who was already feeling guilty, break out in a cold sweat on his back.
"Cough."
Just as Li Luo was thinking about how to deal with this Qin Wang, a violent coughing sound suddenly erupted from over there. He looked over and saw that Tang Yun and Lu Xiaofeng were also spitting out black blood, then coughing as they woke up.
Li Luo hurriedly walked over. Facing the somewhat dazed and weak gazes of Tang Yun and Lu Xiaofeng, he smiled faintly and pointed to the other branch resonance refiners around them.
"Two, you should understand what happened in this scene, right?"
Tang Yun and Lu Xiaofeng looked at the weak branch resonance refiners around them, and then their eyes began to turn red, finally letting out a low roar like wild beasts: "Pei Hao, you are so vicious!"
The cause and effect instantly became clear at this moment.
That Pei Hao must have done something to them before, and then guided them to the Xiyang House headquarters. His purpose was to send them into the headquarters and, in the end, let them die there, thereby framing the Luolan Manor and Li Luo.
They did not suspect at all that it was Li Luo who had poisoned them, because if anything happened to them at Xiyang House, it would bring bad influence to Li Luo.
And if it wasn't Li Luo, then the answer was obvious.
"It was the farewell wine Pei Hao gave us!" Lu Xiaofeng said through gritted teeth.
The other branch resonance refiners also reacted and immediately began to curse loudly.
Tang Yun looked at Li Luo and said with some shame, "Young Manor Master, I'm sorry. It's all because we were used by others and caused you trouble."
The others also looked over with grateful and admiring eyes.
Li Luo sighed, waved his hand, and said, "You are my Xiyang House people after all; I won't let you die in front of me."
"So now... two guild leaders, do you still intend to return to the Xiling County branch?" He stared at Tang Yun and Lu Xiaofeng.
Hearing this, the two gave a bitter smile.
"Young Manor Master, please don't make fun of us. That Pei Hao is so vicious, how could we dare to go back... If the Young Manor Master doesn't mind, let us serve at the headquarters from now on."
A smile appeared on Li Luo's face, and he nodded.
"But before that, I still need to trouble the two of you to do something..."
He raised his head and looked outside the headquarters. Pei Hao had gone to such great lengths to play out this big drama; it was time to bring it to an end for him.
