As for the aura left by Youhe, Yun Xiao believed that Zhou Jicang could understand it if he didn't say it, so there was no need to explain too much. His words also made the regret in Zhou Jicang's heart even more intense.
.
Damn it, if he had known this outcome earlier, why would he have forced his way into the Sky Stepping Stone and injured Xie Mingtao?
Not only did this offend a strong person in the middle stage of the Floating Life Realm in vain, but it might even make Master Yunxiao unhappy. It was really not worth the loss.
"As for you..."
With Yun Xiao's current strength, he would naturally not pay too much attention to a cultivator in the middle stage of the Floating Life Realm. When he saw his eyes turning over, he finally stopped at Xie Mingtao and paused slightly.
Puff puff puff...
Just when Xie Mingtao was a little confused, he saw the big man who was above him in his eyes directly tapping the various points on his right rib with his fingers like the wind.
"Many... many thanks, Lord Yunxiao!"
Feeling the severe pain in his right rib just now, Xie Mingtao felt much more relaxed in the blink of an eye. Unexpectedly, Xie Mingtao didn't know that this Master Yun Xiao had used the art of medical healing to heal his injuries. At that moment, he was flattered and bowed again.
"How long have you been poisoned?"
But just after Xie Mingtao's voice of thanks fell, Yun Xiao asked a question that was inexplicable, which also made Zhou Jicang next to him tremble violently.
"I...I didn't poison you!"
Zhou Jicang had a look of panic on his face. He was not a poison master. Even though his temper was a little violent, he would not use despicable means of poisoning and assassination, so he quickly denied it at this moment.
"It has nothing to do with you. He has been poisoned for at least a year. During this year, you should have seen a lot of medical pulse masters or poison pulse masters, right?"
Yun Xiao's first words were addressed to Zhou Jicang, and then he turned back to Xie Mingtao. As soon as he said these words, the body of this dignified and powerful man in the floating life realm could not help but tremble violently.
"I see, no wonder I won so easily!"
Hearing Yun Xiao's words, Zhou Jicang couldn't help but suddenly realized that he was originally a little confused about why this Xie Mingtao, who was also a middle-level warrior in the floating life realm, was defeated by him in just dozens of moves. It turned out that he had already been poisoned.
"If I'm not wrong, you volunteered to guard this Sky Stepping Stone because you are waiting for my arrival in order to cure the poison that you cannot resolve, right?"
Yun Xiao talked eloquently, how smart he was, and after a moment of reflection, he made a very close guess about the matter based on Xie Mingtao's own situation.
"Lord Yunxiao, you know what's going to happen. Please help save Ming Tao's life!"
Now that this person had seen all his thoughts, Xie Mingtao immediately prostrated himself. That kind of strong poison had been tormenting him for more than a year, but no one could solve it. It really made his days feel like years.
Xie Mingtao even visited some heaven-level medical pulse masters or poison pulse masters, but the final result was that he was helpless, so he could only try his luck here.
Although it was more straightforward to go directly to Lian Yun Mountain to find Yun Xiao, Xie Mingtao knew that with that person's current status and strength, he had nothing to offer.
There is no friendship between the two parties, so why should Lord Yunxiao detoxify himself?
Over the years, Xie Mingtao has heard a lot about Lian Yun Mountain. It is not a charity organization. If you want to heal injuries, cure diseases, and resolve severe poisons, you need to pay a huge price.
Therefore, Xie Mingtao could only become a living doctor. As a powerful person in the middle stage of the floating life realm, he volunteered to take on the role of guarding the Sky Stepping Stone.
He just hoped that one day, the news that he was guarding the Sky Stepping Stone would reach Yun Xiao's ears, and maybe he would have a chance of survival. Who else on the Tenglong Continent has the art of healing veins or poisoning veins?
Who is more clever than Yun Xiao?
"Thanks for your hard work!"
Unexpectedly, Xie Mingtao fell to the ground, but Yun Xiao just said these three simple words, then waved his right hand gently and said: "Let's go!"
Such an action made Lingwan, who didn't understand, very confused. He secretly thought that with the character of his elder brother, since he said "Thank you", there was no reason to ignore it.
In any case, although there is no explicit rule that no one can enter the Sky Stepping Stone, Xie Mingtao can be regarded as maintaining Yun Xiao's majesty. Lingwan knows that his eldest brother, if he really takes action to remove the poison from this old guy, I am afraid that
No effort at all, right?
"Lord Yunxiao..."
Hearing the words after Yun Xiao, Xie Mingtao's heart instantly sank to the bottom, but he didn't know what to say. After all, the other party had no obligation to detoxify him.
Xie Mingtao could imagine that if Yun Xiao really left, his last hope would be cut off, and what awaited him would be death from poison.
"You old man is still a strong person in the middle stage of the Floating Life Realm. Don't you feel that the poison in your body has been lifted?"
Just when Xie Mingtao felt despair and Lingwan and Zhou Jicang had doubtful expressions on their faces, a soft voice suddenly came from the side. When they looked up, they saw a graceful girl with a cheerful smile.
"Resolved...resolved?"
Xie Mingtao immediately recognized that it was Liu Hanyi, one of the two charms of medicine and poison in Lianyun Mountain, but at this moment, he had no intention of caring about the other person's identity. With this reminder, he couldn't help but be surprised and worried.
happiness.
"It actually...is really lifted, this...this..."
When Xie Mingtao circulated his pulse energy and walked around the major meridians in his body, a look of extreme shock and disbelief appeared on his face, and there was even a strong lack of confidence.
"Brother, your method is amazing, isn't it?"
Seeing Xie Mingtao's ever-changing expression, even if Lingwan realized it later, he knew that when Yunxiao hit the acupuncture point on his right rib, he had successfully defused the poison in his body, and he couldn't help but exclaim.
Voice.
As soon as these words came out, even Lu Yanji looked shocked, because even he, a high-level poison pulse master at the heaven level, did not notice what kind of detoxification method Yun Xiao used.
Perhaps only Liu Hanyi, who was a fairy fetus with a poisonous body and could sense all kinds of poisons very clearly, could immediately discover the changes in Xie Mingtao's body.
But it was absolutely impossible for Liu Hanyi to resolve the poison poisoned by Xie Mingtao on his own, with such ease and without even realizing it. This was simply a miraculous skill.
"Master Yunxiao's life-saving grace will be unforgettable by Ming Tao. He will guard the Sky Stepping Stone for the rest of his life and will not allow outsiders to set foot on it at will!"
Feeling that there was indeed no trace of poison in his body, and that his pulse flow had returned to normal, Xie Mingtao no longer had any doubts, and bowed to the ground in front of the rough-clothed figure, speaking solemnly.
"As you wish!"
Yun Xiao would not pay too much attention to such trivial matters. As for whether the other party would continue to protect the Sky Stepping Stone, it was just a trivial matter for him.
However, Yun Xiao did not stop Xie Mingtao's decision to protect the Sky Stepping Stone. On the mainland, some faith and awe are still needed. The existence of the Sky Stepping Stone may be a good reflection of this awe.
Take the previous Zhou Jicang as an example. After this incident, his behavior will probably be much more restrained for some time to come. This is not a good thing for him.
"Master Yunxiao, he should be leaving Tenglong Continent, right?"
Xie Mingtao stood up from the sky and looked at the many figures disappearing into the depths of the Chongxiao River, and couldn't help but feel a trace of emotion and melancholy.
"Brother Mingtao, I wonder if you would mind if I guard the Sky Stepping Stone with you?"
Just when Xie Mingtao was staring at the disappearing figure, a voice came from not far away from him, which finally made him come back to his senses.
"Haha, I couldn't have asked for it!"
Seemingly seeing the determination in Zhou Jicang's eyes, Xie Mingtao couldn't help but laugh twice. The two of them had never known each other before, and perhaps they would fight side by side from now on.
But what no one, including these two people, knew was that over time, the guardian of the Sky Stepping Stone grew stronger and stronger. In the end, it developed into a superpower that should not be underestimated in the Tenglong Continent.
.
Of course, these are all things for later. As Yun Xiao and others left the river bank of Tenglong Continent and set foot on the other side of Chongxiao River, what was waiting for them? At least Xie Mingtao and others had no way of knowing.
…………
Whoa whoosh!
The water below was surging, and figures in the sky were passing by. It was Yun Xiao and his party. Apart from him, no one else had ever been to the depths of the Chongxiao River. They were all curious at the moment.
Look around.
There is no danger in the Chongxiao River. It seems that there are not many water-veined monsters at the bottom of the river. Even if there are, they are so frightened by such a group of extremely terrifying auras that they do not dare to show their heads.
"Ahead is the location of the Sky Staircase!"
Yun Xiao was familiar with the road, and when he saw the coastline-like land ahead of him, he immediately spoke solemnly, both to introduce and to remind everyone of the upcoming danger.
Although Yun Xiao watched the half-step Holy Spirit escape into the Sky Staircase that day, but after such a period of time, there is no guarantee that nothing will change. Even he himself has pulses surging and his face is wary.
The few people were extremely fast, and soon they had lowered their bodies and stepped onto the beach on the river bank. But this time, the rushing river water behind them did not disappear, which also made Yun Xiao feel relieved.
"It seems that the half step of the Holy Spirit has not come out!"
Yun Xiao raised his eyes and looked around. After sensing that there was no trace of any strange aura, the powerful heaven-level advanced soul power confirmed that at least there was no danger outside the Stairway to the Sky.
