Ye Tianyi switched on the lights and found Ye Xian’er recuperating with her eyes closed. There were bloodstains on her waist. She looked troubled, and her breathing was shallow. Ye Tianyi had mastered the Universal Sacred Art. Knowledge and memories since the beginning of time were stored in his brain. He could tell the severity of Ye Xian’er’s wounds with a single glance. 

It was not fatal. In addition to the injury, there was a slight darkness between her brows. She was poisoned! Ye Tianyi studied the wounds. The bloodstains on her clothes were a mixture of red and black. 

It was poison!

Ye Xian’er noticed some movement in the room so she slowly opened her beautiful eyes which revealed a hint of exhaustion. 

“Why have you come back?” Ye Xian’er asked surprisingly. 

“I didn’t say I wasn’t coming back.” 

Ye Tianyi stood in front of her and looked at her. 

In Ye Xian’er’s memory, whenever Ye Tianyi leaves the house in the evening, he wouldn’t be back that night. That was why she came home after being injured. She wouldn’t have come back otherwise. 

“What’s wrong?” Ye Tianyi asked desperately. 

“I was a little careless while in the demon beast domain and I got attacked by a demon beast.”

“Those are obviously sword wounds,” Ye Tianyi said.

Ye Xian’er glanced at him with surprise. Her wounds were covered in blood and were barely visible. How could he tell those were sword wounds? He should not have been able to as her clothes with the sword marks were gone. 

Ye Tianyi said cheerfully, “From the bloodstains on your clothes, it looks like your blood flowed slowly, instead of bursting from your veins. It must’ve been a higher level demon beast, one that could hurt you as they usually have sharp claws that are capable of serious damage to us. Thus, these are either sword wounds or knife wounds. Who did this?”

Ye Tianyi may have looked calm, but he was suppressing his anger. 

“It’s none of your business. Leave it to me.”

“I’m not going to do anything. I’m just a scumbag. I won’t be able to beat him anyway, so tell me who it is and I’ll sleep with his wife.”

Ye Xian’er, “…”

“Is it the Yang family?”

“Stop guessing. Get some rest,” Ye Xian’er said faintly.

“Let me help you heal.”

“It’s just some minor scratches. They’ll heal in two days.”

Ye Tianyi walked to her and held Ye Xian’er’s slender hand. She pulled back, but Ye Tianyi was strong. He gripped her wrist.

Ye Xian’er was shocked as he was taking her pulse. Did he even have any medical knowledge?

Ye Tianyi sighed with relief.

“Thankfully, the toxin level isn’t that high.”

Ye Tianyi touched some of Ye Xian’er’s blood with his finger and took a whiff. He frowned.

“Jimson Weed.”

Ye Xian’er looked at Ye Tianyi, astonished.

She did not know what kind of poison it was, but Ye Tianyi was able to tell that she was poisoned just by taking her pulse?

“When did you study medicine?” Ye Xian’er questioned.

“What? Medicine?”

Ye Tianyi scratched his head, smiled, and said, “I was only pretending.”

“Then how did you know I was poisoned?”

“The purplish black-colored blood from your wounds are signs of poison.”

It dawned on Ye Xian’er.

“Please, get some rest. I’ll take care of the rest.”

Ye Tianyi left and returned to his room.

He’ll take care of the rest? Ye Xian’er frowned. What did he mean? The Yang family… or the poison?

“Jimson Weed… It’s not easy to treat.”

Ye Tianyi was pacing in his room. 

That was a type of poisonous plant. Whoever did it must have applied the sap from a Jimson Weed on the sword that wounded Ye Xian’er. It was not very poisonous, the victim would simply become weaker. Based on Ye Xian’er’s level, she would be able to last five days, unlike other kinds of poison that could take one’s life in an hour, or worse, turn one into a puddle of blood.

The Jimson Weed toxin was much harder to treat because of one reason; Purple Honeysuckle. Purple Honeysuckle was the only antidote that could cure the body of Jimson Weed toxins! It just so happened that Ye Tianyi was going on a search for some Purple Honeysuckle. He must find some on this trip. 

Ye Xian’er’s injury was not too severe. It was mainly the poison. 

“The Yang family…”

Ye Tianyi stroked his chin slightly.

When he was searching for memories of this world and learned about the death of the Ye family, he suspected it was the Yang family when they succeeded into the four great families. What good did it do for the four great families? None. It was just some meaningless stunt. Thus, Ye Tianyi gave up on the idea because it was pointless. Plus, how was the Yang family able to eliminate the Ye family quietly? 

However, when he thought about it, did it have to be the Yang family themselves who did it? The Yang family could have hired someone strong to eliminate them. When Ye Tianyi mentioned the Yang family, he could tell from the expression on Ye Xian’er’s face. He was sure that it was the Yang family. Ye Tianyi did not know what happened with the Ye family, but he knew the Yang family hurt Ye Xian’er. 

He did not know the reasons behind it. Ye Xian’er has been investigating this for years. How could she forget the revenge of familial elimination? 

Ye Tianyi remembered all these, but the key now was to look for some Purple Honeysuckle. 

Soon after, Ye Tianyi sat on his bed, closed his eyes, and started practicing. 

He was able to sense the Wind Attribute power and the Ice Attribute power, but he couldn’t activate it yet…

The next morning, Ye Tianyi opened his eyes to a great sensation surging through his body! He was upgraded to the Body Forging stage: level five! Shot up straight to level five?

Divine talent? 

That was ridiculous! That level of talent is ridiculous!

Yes…Tensui-hou BirthStone!

Suddenly, Ye Tianyi remembered that he had absorbed the fiery red crystal the previous night. That must be the explanation. That was probably a spiritual object of heaven and earth that was of a much higher level.

It was great that he had soared to this level. It would be very helpful during this journey! He had not had the chance to battle after arriving here, and he was yet to try out the Earth grade technique of the Fire God’s Tribulation. It was time to give it a go.

Ye Tianyi saw that the room had been cleaned. The wounded Ye Xian’er cleaned his room and even made breakfast for Ye Tianyi. 

This woman…knew he had classes to go to and woke up early to make him breakfast in her condition. 

“Sis, I’m going to class. Take care.”

Ye Tianyi took a piece of bread and left.

In her room, Ye Xian’er opened her beautiful eyes.

“Why is the poison still eroding my body?”

The toxin wasn’t very strong, but no matter how hard she tried to get rid of it using her power, it didn’t seem to be effective. If she didn’t find the antidote soon, her situation would only get worse.

Ye Tianyi arrived at the agreed location. 

“Baobao?”

Ye Tianyi was stunned.
