Chapter 152: Fighting Cold Poison with Fire, Melting Glaciers with Body Heat!
Yu Jiao Long sat cross-legged, her eyes slightly closed, a gust of cold air rose from her body.
A faint frost covered the eyelashes and hair.
The temperature of the entire room dropped to freezing.
Even from this distance, Su Shi could feel the cold stinging his bones.
One could imagine what kind of pain she was suffering.
“No wonder she can’t escape from wine at all.”
“With such a terrifying cold poison, I’m afraid no one would have been able to survive if they hadn’t used alcohol to sedate them.”
Su Shi sighed.
Yu Jiao Long’s aura surged around her body and attempted to suppress the cold.
But it still couldn’t stop the cold frost from spreading.
“No.”
She opened her eyes and looked a little helpless.
During the daytime when Yang’s energy is strong, the cold poison will usually not flare up, and only late at night will it burst out from the skeletal meridians.
Using her own cultivation to fight it and the immortal drink to sedate it, she was still able to at least survive until dawn.
But this time the situation was very different.
The illusion of the human-faced demon spider had completely awakened the cold poison, and he couldn’t suppress it back on his own.
Su Shi said, “I’d better help you immediately”
Yu Jiao Long nodded, “I will trouble Shengzi Su.”
Su Shi sat opposite her and grasped that cold and delicate hand.
Pale golden flames blazed in his palm.
The Desolate Star God Flame slowly and gently seeped into her body, continuously spreading coldness in her meridians.
Yu Jiao Long trembled for a moment.
A trace of sensation finally returned to her numb body.
But was the eternal cold Qi so easy to dispel?
No sooner had the heavenly flame entered the body than it was quickly counterattacked.
The cold Qi seemed to sense a threat and continued to gather and surge towards the divine fire, immediately taking over the meridians again Su Shi frowned slightly and increased his spiritual energy output.
The flames surged upwards.
But then it was met with an even more ferocious reaction!
“This is still not enough!”
Su Shi chanted the Heavenly Sutra while taking out the Spiritual Marrow and drinking a drop from it, providing a constant source of fuel for the divine flame.
A tug-of-war occurred within Yu Jia Long.
But the cold Qi seemed endless, just as some melted away, more immediately filled it back up.
It continued to gather from other places, surrounding the Desolate Star God Flame
Soon it had the upper hand.
Yu Jiao Long looked at the cold frost spreading on the surface of her body and sighed, “Shengzi, don’t waste your efforts.”
The Desolate Star God Flame is high grade, but the eternal cold Qi is also not trivial.
After so many years have passed, the cold poison has invaded the bone marrow.
Now that it had erupted completely, it had already become something that Su Shi had difficulty repairing.
Su Shi shook his head and said in a deep voice: ”If I don’t immediately suppress the cold poison, you might freeze to death!”
If this alone was already severe during the day, how much more dangerous would it be after nightfall?
Let alone removing the cold Qi, it was not even clear if she would see the next day!
As the day wore on, the cold poison became more and more active, and Yu Jiao Long’s face grew paler and paler.
Her entire body was shrouded in frost.
But even after enduring such pain, she still didn’t complain.
“It’s okay, I’ve already resigned myself.”
“The moment I was frozen, I was already dead, but I never thought I would still be saved by Her Majesty.
“From that day onwards, every day I lived was an extra result.”
Yu Jiao Long looked indifferent, as if she had actually seen life and death.
“Although I don’t want to admit it, I did lose this time.”
She took a jug of wine from her storage ring and raised her arm with difficulty, “But, finally, I can drink.”
The jug reached her lips, but not a single drop of wine could be poured.
In just a few seconds of holding it in her hand, the eternal drink in the jug had frozen into a pile of ice.
Apparently, not even the last straw could be reached.
Yu Jiao Long gripped the jug, her eyes trembling slightly as she whispered, “Why does it always have to leave me with regrets?”
It was obviously already painful, yet she could not even take a sip of wine.
This fate was a little too cruel.
Seeing her sad appearance, Su Shi was silent for a moment and slowly stood up.
Then he began to undress himself.
Yu Jiao Long saw this and said in disbelief, “What are you doing?”
“This robe was given to me by someone else, and I don’t want to ruin it.”
Su Shi took off his python robe and kept it in his storage ring.
With an erect figure and wrinkled muscles, he stood in front of Yu Jiao Long.
“The reason why cold poison is so difficult to eliminate is because they lurk in every corner of your body.”
“If only hold the hand, the contact is too small and the divine flame will be easily extinguished.”
“I need to embrace you to do that.”
The flames on Su Shi’s body exploded, instantly turning him into a human torch!
Yu Jiao Long shook her head and laughed bitterly, “It’s useless, it’ll be night soon, you won’t be able to last that long.”
Su Shi was only in the Realm of Golden Elixir.
It was not easy to last half an hour with the incessant burning, how could he possibly last until tomorrow morning?
“I appreciate Shengzi’s kindness ……”
“Saint Yu.”
Su Shi interjected, “I know my abilities are limited and I cannot help you eradicate the cold poison for now, but there is one thing I can still do.”
Golden pupils stared at her, his voice low and firm: “This long night is long, I will spend it with you.”
Yu Jiao Long froze.
Before he could regain his consciousness, he had been pulled into a blazing embrace.
Su Shi hugged Yu Jiao Long tightly, and the raging flames wrapped her completely, turning her rough clothes into ashes in an instant.
The cold air and flames collided, and the room billowed with a blanket of water vapor.
Su Shi said in a deep voice, “Please endure, I’ll buy you a drink tomorrow.”
Yu Jiao Long looked at him in confusion.
This man was desperately burning himself, as if trying to melt the glacier with his body heat.
Her heart was beating fast.
“Fool.”
Yu Jiao Long turned her head, her eyes complicated, but his hands wrapped around the back of her tight waist.
The frost on the surface of her body gradually melted, and her pale cheeks regained their blood.
“It’s a little embarrassing.”
“But he’s really warm.”
Yu Jiao Long’s eyes narrowed slightly, like a lazy cat sunbathing on the roof.
Very sleepy.
Early in the morning the next day.
Knock knock knock knock.
Bai Qing knocked on the bedroom door.
After waiting for a while, no one answered inside the house.
“Is Master still sleeping? In that case, I’ll come in.”
Bai Qing carefully pushed the door, “Master, it’s time to get up and have breakfast -”
The words stopped abruptly.
She stood in place like a statue, her face filled with disbelief.
On the bed, two people were sleeping in each other’s arms.
One of them was of course Su Shi, while the other was surprisingly an Eastern Saint!
The most crucial thing was that both of them were completely naked!
Bai Qing hurriedly covered her eyes, her pretty face red and hot.
“No wonder he didn’t need me to warm the bed yesterday, he turned out to be with Eastern Saint…”
“Didn’t you say that you happened to be traveling together?”
“Don’t tell me they happened to sleep together again?”
“Master is really outrageous!”
