Murano Momo is a cunning doctor

Chapter 1301 Qualifications

The unusual feeling of strain on his dantian was the result of him secretly using his spiritual power to slightly stimulate specific acupoints, disrupting the flow of his qi and blood.

Such a sophisticated disguise would not be difficult to deceive Situ Qingcang, who was in a state of agitation at the moment.

Situ Qingcang remained silent for a moment, his eyes flickering as he sized up Jiang Xiaochuan. The total amount of Yin energy absorbed was still a bit short...

But a cold reality extinguished his greed.

If Jiang Xiaochuan's dantian really couldn't withstand the pressure and shattered at this moment, or even if his cultivation was completely destroyed, then this almost perfect vessel in his eyes would be useless!

Without a stable source of Yin energy, all his schemes will come to naught.

It would be almost impossible to find a pure Yang body in this world that possesses such pure and high-level Yin energy and happens to offer itself up to you!

But more importantly, something was wrong with his own internal condition!

The massive influx of yin energy brought a heavy burden and a subtle sense of stagnation.

If one has not absorbed enough Yin energy, one should not rashly attempt to refine the Yang body.

At this moment, he desperately needed time to completely digest the yin energy within his body.

Otherwise, let alone proceed with the next step of the plan, you might even be harmed by the backlash of this yin energy.

After a moment's deliberation, Situ Qingcang forcibly suppressed his greed and forced a seemingly genuine but actually stiff smile onto his face.

"Young friend, don't panic! Perhaps... perhaps this formation is being used for the first time, and the energy it absorbs is too strong, causing your dantian to be unable to withstand it for a moment. This is my oversight."

"How about this, let's stop here for today. Young friend, you should go back and recuperate to stabilize your dantian."

“We agree that you will come back here in three days.”

"By then, I should be able to refine and solidify the Yin energy I obtained today. When we are both in good condition, the effect will be better and safer. What do you think?"

Jiang Xiaochuan had been observing Situ Qingcang's reaction and was increasingly convinced that his prediction was correct. He tentatively asked:

"Thank you for your understanding, senior. However, senior... after absorbing so much yin energy, aren't you already at the point of yin excess and yang deficiency? Can you still continue to absorb?"

A cold glint flashed in Situ Qingcang's eyes, and he immediately denied it outright:

"Young friend, you are overthinking it! My cultivation foundation is solid; a little bit of Yin energy is nothing to worry about."

"Although this yin energy can temporarily suppress the yang poison, more yin energy is needed to neutralize it completely."

"What we just did was merely a drop in the ocean. Even after refining and solidifying it, it will probably still be no match for the stubborn yang poison that has accumulated in my body over the years."

"Therefore, I will need your strong support in three days."

Jiang Xiaochuan didn't elaborate further, but simply nodded weakly and cupped his hands, saying, "I see... I will listen to you, senior, and I will come to bother you again in three days."

"well."

Situ Qingcang waved his withered hand, and the heavy stone door behind him once again emitted a deep rumble.

"Young friend, you can go to my family's medicine warehouse and select some nourishing herbs to replenish the vital energy you have lost today."

Situ Qingcang seemed concerned, but Jiang Xiaochuan knew that he was trying to reassure him so that he could come without any worries in three days.

"Thank you for your consideration, senior."

Jiang Xiaochuan bowed again to express his gratitude, then, still clutching his dantian, walked unsteadily out of the oppressive stone chamber.

The stone door slowly closed behind him with a muffled "boom," completely shutting out the gaze of the eerie eyes inside the stone chamber.

"Old monster, three days from now? I'm afraid by then, you won't have a choice..."

The moment the stone door closed, Jiang Xiaochuan glanced back at the heavy stone door, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

At this moment, outside the stone chamber and at the head of the winding bridge, Situ Zhen was nowhere to be seen.

Only Feng Ji stood with his arms crossed, calmly watching over him.

Situ Hong, on the other hand, paced back and forth like an ant on a hot pan.

"You finally made it out!"

Upon seeing Jiang Xiaochuan emerge, Situ Hong immediately rushed forward, disregarding Jiang Xiaochuan's weak appearance, and anxiously asked:

"What exactly happened inside just now? Why...why did my father look at me like that?"

"That look in his eyes...it was like he wanted to eat me alive, and then he left without saying a word?"

"I have no idea."

Jiang Xiaochuan slowly shook his head, his tone calm.

This is, after all, a family matter of the Situ family, and it is not appropriate for an outsider like him to point it out.

Moreover, he was currently preoccupied with planning the perilous situation and countermeasures for three days from now, and had no time to deal with Situ Hong's questioning.

Seeing that Situ Hong was about to ask again, he simply shut him down: "If you really want to know, why don't you go ask him yourself?"

"I...I wouldn't dare."

Situ Hong shrank back, his face showing obvious fear, clearly genuinely afraid of Situ Zhen's earlier appearance.

Seeing this, Jiang Xiaochuan sighed inwardly:

Given Situ Hong's incompetent and useless nature, it's no wonder that Situ Zhen was so distraught.

Situ Hong recalled that his father had always been cold towards him, only recently becoming slightly more amiable because of his "meritorious service in accompanying the ancestor."

Perhaps troubled by some family matters, he reverted to his old ways.

The thought had barely formed in his mind when Situ Hong cast aside his earlier fear, his face replacing it with excitement as he leaned forward and said:

"By the way, are you free now? There's something I haven't told you yet."

Is something really wrong?

Jiang Xiaochuan raised an eyebrow.

He had initially thought that Situ Hong's words about having something to do before entering the stone chamber were an attempt to stop him from going in, but he hadn't expected there to be something else going on.

"what's up?"

Following his words, Jiang Xiaochuan subconsciously asked.

It's never a bad thing to learn more information.

"Hey, what are you pretending to be so aloof for!"

Seeing Jiang Xiaochuan's lack of interest, Situ Hong frowned slightly in displeasure, but he couldn't hide his thoughts and immediately said:

"Of course, it's about making your medicinal wine famous!"

"Thanks to my tireless efforts day and night, your medicinal wine is now quite famous!"

"Once it's released, it will definitely cause a sensation in the entire capital!"

Situ Hong looked smug. In his view, with his reputation for "fun" and the fact that it had been fermenting for so long, it would be hard for this medicinal wine not to be a hit.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaochuan's eyes flickered.

He did believe in Situ Hong's abilities, after all, the other party had extensive connections in the elite circles of the capital.

But right now, he has more important things to do, and business matters have to be put on hold; he simply doesn't have the energy to deal with them.

"Fuck, are you kidding me?"

Seeing that Jiang Xiaochuan still didn't react, Situ Hong became anxious.

"It's not the right time yet, keep trying."

Jiang Xiaochuan changed the subject and asked, "By the way, do you have the right to go into your family's medicinal herb warehouse?"

His sudden question instantly caught Situ Hong's attention.

To be precise, it was the word "qualification" that truly struck a nerve with him.
