It was as if the other party had been watching them the whole time while they were stealing the Poison Dragon Gall and the Water Spirit Orb.
This is absolutely terrifying.
"You may not know this, but when you were in Miao territory, you were already poisoned by the Shadowless Poison of the Moon Worship Cult Leader. If you don't receive timely treatment, you may not be able to save your lives."
Li Yao smiled slightly.
"What?"
"We've been poisoned?"
Li Sansi and his wife looked at each other, their faces showing suspicion.
This news is absolutely astonishing.
They thought they were very careful, so how could they have been poisoned?
Moreover, they showed no signs of poisoning.
"You should know that the Gu poison in the Southern Frontier is extremely difficult to guard against. Even if you are extremely careful, you may still fall victim to it."
"Shadowless Poison is one of the seven major poisons in the Southern Frontier. Those who are poisoned will be completely unaware of it, and once the poison takes effect, they will die instantly without any cure."
Li Yao said calmly.
Chapter 488 An Accidental Acquisition of the Water Spirit Orb
Li Sansi and his wife knew that Li Yao's words were not without reason.
They had long heard of the Gu poison in the Southern Frontier; it was extremely evil and truly impossible to guard against.
Therefore, it is quite possible that they were poisoned by Gu without realizing it.
"Why...why are you telling us this?"
Li Sansi is a smart man.
He guessed that Li Yao must have had another purpose in revealing their poisoning.
"It's very simple, I want to make a fair deal with you."
"I have cured you of the Shadowless Poison. Now hand over the Water Spirit Orbs you threw to me."
In fact, Li Yao could have simply taken the Water Spirit Orb directly from Li Sansi and his wife.
However, he is not the kind of person who is unreasonable.
He has always adhered to the principle of 'fair trade' as long as the other party is not an irredeemable villain.
In the world of Jade Dynasty, he once took advantage of Zhou Yixian's inattention to obtain long-lost spells such as the 'Five Ding Golden Armor', 'Little Ghost Transport', and 'Earth Escape' from Zhou Yixian.
At the same time, he paid Zhou Yixian a considerable sum of money under the guise of fortune-telling.
Previously, in order to obtain the Soul of the Hot Sea Spring from Luo Shanqing and help Luo Shanqing, he rescued Luo Shuixiu from the King of Loulan.
These all demonstrate his adherence to the principle of 'fair trade'.
Although Li Sansi and his wife stole from him.
However, the couple had always been chivalrous and robbed the rich to help the poor. Even when facing the famous constable Iron-Armed Eagle Huangfu Ying, who had been relentlessly pursuing them, they still disregarded past grievances and risked their lives to travel to Miao territory to steal the poisonous dragon gall and rescue Huangfu Ying.
Such a righteous act is truly rare.
Therefore, Li Yao had no intention of forcibly taking the Water Spirit Orb.
"Okay, we promise you!"
Li Sansi and his wife exchanged glances and finally nodded in agreement.
In fact, they had no other choice but to do so.
Now they are trapped, and if they don't agree to the other party's demands, they will probably have no way to escape.
Moreover, they also knew that the Shadowless Poison was extremely potent, and even if they possessed the Dragon Gallbladder, they would not be able to use it as an antidote.
If the other party can help them cure the Shadowless Poison, it will be considered as saving their lives.
The Water Spirit Orb is something they can do without.
Therefore, this deal is quite worthwhile.
"very good!"
Li Yao nodded in satisfaction.
As he spoke, he activated a hand seal, and a dazzling golden light entered Li Sansi's body.
A moment later, Li Sansi looked pained, feeling as if something was thrashing around inside his chest and abdomen.
Soon, he opened his mouth and spat out a disgusting-looking Gu worm.
"Husband, is this a Gu worm? How disgusting!"
Xiao Bai frowned slightly.
Although she is a member of the Celestial Fox clan, she comes from the Southern Frontier of the Jade Dynasty world.
However, in the world of Jade Dynasty, witchcraft is the most commonly used magic in the Southern Frontier, and Gu magic is not very common.
Therefore, she had never seen a real Gu worm.
"That's it!"
Li Yao nodded.
The worm fell to the ground and began to dart about wildly.
As he spoke, he condensed a ball of Samadhi Heavenly Fire in his hand and pushed it toward the Gu worms on the ground.
In an instant, the Samadhi Heavenly Fire devoured the Gu worm. With a hissing sound, the Gu worm quickly turned into ashes and disappeared.
The Li Sansi couple, standing nearby, felt nauseous at the sight.
They never imagined that such disgusting worms would be inside their bodies.
Next, Li Yao used the same method to force out the Gu worms from Li Sansi's wife's body and burned them to death with Samadhi Heavenly Fire.
Then, Li Yao flipped his right hand and a porcelain bottle appeared in his hand. He handed it to Li Sansi and said, "The Gu worms have been in your bodies for quite some time, and your vital energy has been greatly eroded by them. This is holy water that I personally refined. After drinking it, your vital energy will be restored."
Actually, the water in this porcelain bottle was just some water that Li Yao casually took out from his spatial storage.
He used this free water as a favor, making a profit without any investment.
Of course, he wouldn't easily give away the water in his space.
"Thank you so much!"
Mr. and Mrs. Li Sansi were both surprised and grateful.
They never expected Li Yao to be so kind, not only curing them of the Shadowless Poison but also giving them healing holy water.
It seems they had misheard the rumors and mistakenly believed Li Yao to be a heartless and wicked person.
Since Li Yao has been kind to them on several occasions, they should show their sincerity in return.
So, Li Sansi and his wife exchanged glances.
Then, Li Sansi took out a delicate little box from his pocket, opened it, and saw a small light blue bead inside.
He handed the box to Li Yao and said, "My benefactor, this is the Water Spirit Orb. It's yours now!"
"This is the Water Spirit Orb!"
Xiao Bai was quick; she took the box directly from Li Sansi's hand, picked up the Water Spirit Orb with a curious look, and exclaimed, "This orb is so cold!"
Even Li Yao, who was standing to the side, could feel the strange and chilling aura emanating from the Water Spirit Pearl.
After playing with it for a while, Xiao Bai handed the Water Spirit Orb to Li Yao.
The moment Li Yao touched the Water Spirit Pearl, he felt a strong chill.
However, this cold air was not the kind of biting, chilling cold; rather, it was much gentler.
It's like stepping into an air-conditioned room from the unbearable heat of the outdoors on a sweltering summer day – the only feeling is a refreshing coolness that invigorates the spirit.
"It really is a good product!"
Li Yao smiled slightly.
As he spoke, he flipped his right hand and stored the Water Spirit Orb in his spatial storage.
At the same time, he copied the Water Spirit Orb and then decomposed it.
Spiritual energy +9999!
Divine Soul +9999!
Blue sea with rolling waves*1!
Water Spirit Orb Soul *1!
This Water Spirit Orb truly lives up to its name as a spirit orb formed from the power of water spirits, containing a large amount of spiritual energy and divine soul.
Moreover, the Water Spirit Orb also comes with the water-based spell 'Azure Sea Waves'.
Li Yao was not in a hurry to integrate the soul of the Water Spirit Orb into the ring space.
He planned to collect all five spirit orbs, then integrate their souls into the ring space, adding a new rule of heaven and earth.
At that time, his ring space will automatically generate five spirit pearls after a period of time.
He absorbed the spiritual power of five spirit orbs, and after a period of gestation, new five spirit orbs will appear in his ring space.
This is equivalent to an inexhaustible source of spiritual energy, which allows him to quickly improve his cultivation level and saves him a lot of cultivation time.
Because Li Sansi and his wife were concerned about Huangfu Ying's situation, they stayed overnight at Li Yao's mansion and left the next day.
This time, Li Sansi and his wife unexpectedly encountered Li Yao, which can be considered a stroke of luck for them, saving them from disaster and changing their fate.
In fact, Li Yao's arrival in the world of Legend of Sword and Fairy has already changed the fate of many people.
For example: Liu Jinyuan, Lin Yueru, Jiang Qing, Yue Rouxia, Luo Shanqing, Luo Shuixiu, etc.
