Chapter 340: No Time for Joking
With this look, anyone would guess that the little snake was poisonous, and Shangguan Yuan must have been poisoned.
Patriarch Situ took out several bottles of golden wound medicine from his body and sprinkled them on the wound, temporarily stopping the bleeding. But even so, his face was as pale as paper, and his true energy was surging in his chest. In a short period of time, his combat power was not even 10% of his peak period.
Patriarch Situ simply sat cross-legged on the spot, healing his wounds while staring at Shangguan Yuan coldly. Anyway, in his current state, he couldn't leave for a while, so he might as well stay here to see how Shangguan Yuan died of poisoning, which could also be regarded as a little relief.
Shangguan Yuan frowned, took out a few pills from his body and swallowed them, and then applied some medicine powder to his calf.
But his efforts were in vain. The calf showed no signs of improvement, and even the black color showed signs of spreading rapidly.
Beads of sweat appeared on Shangguan Yuan's forehead. In just a short while, the black color had spread to half of his thigh. At this speed, it would spread to his heart in less than an incense stick of time.
He must find an alchemist who can detoxify as soon as possible, otherwise his life will be in danger.
Of course, Shangguan Yuan can also choose to stop the loss in time and cut off the poisoned leg. At the cost of losing a leg, he can also save his life.
However, he didn't want to do this until the last moment. After all, he was a warrior. Losing a leg was not much different from wasting half of his cultivation.
There was no holy medicine in the world that could regenerate broken bones. Even if there was, it was not something they could get at their level.
Seeing Shangguan Yuan's embarrassment, the head of the Situ family was even more pleased and said sarcastically: "I asked you to snatch the treasure from me, but you refused to join hands to kill the snake. Now you are poisoned by the snake, you deserve it!"
Anyway, the treasure has been eaten by the snake, and it is too late to say anything now. He can only vent his resentment on Shangguan Yuan.
Shangguan Yuan snorted coldly: "Old dog Situ, don't be proud, anyway, you didn't get the treasure, you want the treasure, dream! Eat your ass!"
It would have been better if he didn't say it. As soon as he said it, the head of the Situ family suddenly showed a ferocious look on his face, and he almost wanted to draw his sword and kill this guy right now.
However, the head of the Situ family still held back, firstly because he didn't have the fighting power now, and secondly because seeing Shangguan Yuan slowly tortured by the snake venom and died in despair, that feeling would definitely be much more relieved than killing him directly.
"Head, I heard that Su Chen is an alchemy master, otherwise, let's ask him to detoxify and see?" A warrior of the Shangguan family asked.
Shangguan Yuan glanced at Su Chen, wrinkled his fat face, snorted, and said disapprovingly: "How can a little brat be an expert in alchemy? I am the head of a family after all. It is too embarrassing to let a child detoxify."
"Master, Su Chen is not an ordinary teenager. Do you still remember Xueying? It was he who saved Xueying from our family and prevented us from touching her." The Shangguan family warrior said in a low voice.
"Xueying? Who?" Shangguan Yuan was confused. He didn't even remember who Xueying was.
After the warrior's explanation, he almost figured out what was going on.
Before, Shangguan Yuan didn't care much about Xueying's affairs. A family has many big and small affairs, especially a family of the size of the Shangguan family. Even as the head of the family, it is impossible to handle all aspects of the matter personally.
Therefore, Shangguan Yuan handed the matter of Xueying to Su Chen.
At that moment, Shangguan Yuan waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "People who have had conflicts with our Shangguan family, of course, cannot be asked to detoxify."
"We don't want to detoxify you yet."
Li Shitong curled her lips and said sarcastically, "You just wait to die there."
"Hehe, Miss Shitong, who offended you?"
A voice that made people feel like spring breeze came, and then a group of warriors from Qingdan Pavilion came over, surrounded by an old man with half white hair, who was Master Jiang An of Qingdan Pavilion.
Qingdan Pavilion was also invited to explore the cave ruins this time, because it is also one of the forces in Anyang City, and it is a local force in Anyang City.
As for those like Yanbo Pavilion and Mianyue Tower, which have mysterious backers and are not sure whether they are local forces in Anyang City, they were not invited.
At this moment, Master Jiang An came and was stunned when he saw the situation on the scene.
No wonder he was stunned. The two family heads at the scene, one with a big bloody hole in his chest, and the other with a leg swollen like a black radish, this scene would be weird to anyone.
"It's Master Jiang An!"
Shangguan Yuan was so excited that he immediately stood up on one leg, leaving the radish leg hanging in the air, and fell to Master Jiang An's feet with a plop, "Master Jiang An, save me!"
Family, this is really a relative, coming just in time.
If Jiang An came a little later, he might have only cut off the poisoned leg.
"Master Shangguan, what happened?" Jiang An asked.
"I found a rare treasure here and wanted to pick it, but was bitten by a companion demon snake." Shangguan Yuan asked hopefully, "Master Jiang, in my case, there should be hope, right?"
"Well..."
Jiang An pondered, "I can't say whether I can cure it unless I know the specific type of snake. What does the snake look like?"
Shangguan Yuan immediately described it, and also described the shape and color of the dragon blood grass.
After listening, Jiang An stroked his beard and was about to speak, but his eyes unconsciously fell to the side. When he saw Su Chen not far away, he was immediately stunned.
"Mr. Chen? You are here too?"
Jiang An immediately didn't care about dealing with Shangguan Yuan, and hurriedly trotted to Su Chen and bowed, "I didn't know that Mr. Chen was here. I didn't see him before and didn't say hello to him. I really deserve to die."
What?
The mouths of Shangguan Yuan and others slowly opened into a circle. Master Jiang An was so respectful to Su Chen, a teenager? Without a greeting, why do you need to apologize so solemnly?
It’s not surprising that Shangguan Yuan and the others were surprised. Anyang City is so big that there are always many people like him who don’t know how Su Chen is respected by the alchemy world. Even if they heard about it, they probably wouldn’t believe it.
For people like them, they will only believe it completely after seeing it with their own eyes.
“Master Jiang.”
Su Chen smiled faintly, which was considered a greeting to the other party.
“Master Chen…”
Jiang An was about to say something else. After all, in his mind, he had already regarded Su Chen as a half-master. Now that he saw Su Chen, he naturally wanted to say a few more words.
