Young Master in Flower City

Chapter 698 699: Drinking Urine

Inside the bedroom, Long Xiaoyun lay flat on the bed. Even though he was seriously ill, there was a natural aura of authority about him. Among his thick black hair were strands of white, adding to the imposing air.

Upon hearing footsteps, he opened his eyes, revealing a trace of fatigue, but his face still held a faint smile.

Moreover, beside him stood a pure and beautiful young woman, like an ethereal fairy untouched by worldly smoke. Her jet-black hair shimmered in the light, and she wore ancient attire, as if she had traveled from another time.

However, her beauty had a unique charm of its own.

"Butterfly Valley Medical Immortal?" Long Ling'Er recognized the woman.

"Hu Qingniu?" Xiao Tianyu interjected.

In Jin Yong's novels, wasn't the Butterfly Bone Medical Immortal actually Hu Qingniu? But how did he change gender?

Upon hearing this, the Butterfly Bone Medical Immortal cast a glance at Xiao Tianyu. Where did this rude fellow come from, to speak so disrespectfully, calling me an ox? You're the ox. How rude.

"What did you say?" Long Ling'Er glanced at Xiao Tianyu: "This is Medical Immortal Sister Lu Die'Er, not Hu Qingniu."

"Oh, I made a mistake!" Xiao Tianyu said calmly.

Long Ling'Er paid no attention to him, directly went to the bed, held Long Xiaoyun's hand, and seeing his pale complexion, tears streamed down her face.

"Child, don't be sad, everyone must face death eventually." Long Xiaoyun raised his calloused right hand, displaying a gentle smile: "Who is this?"

"My sworn elder brother, Xiao Tianyu!" Long Ling'Er introduced, and Long Xiaoyun looked at Xiao Tianyu and was momentarily stunned, such a handsome fellow, and quite dignified.

Long Xiaoyun, who had judged countless people in his life, had an immediate impression of Xiao Tianyu's extraordinary aura.

Even though Long Xiaoyun lay gravely ill, his presence was still commanding, one glance was enough to instill fear in the younger generations, or else those coveting the clan leader's position wouldn't be waiting outside for Long Xiaoyun to die of poison.

Yet Xiao Tianyu returned his gaze unwaveringly.

Long Xiaoyun then said to Xiao Tianyu: "Thank you for taking care of Ling'Er!"

After that, Long Xiaoyun looked at Long Ling'Er and said: "Ling'Er, step outside for a moment, I have something to discuss with your Brother Xiao."

"Okay!" Long Ling'Er nodded and stepped outside. At this point, Lu Die'Er asked: "Should I leave too?"

"No need!" Long Xiaoyun shook his head and then looked at Xiao Tianyu: "Mr. Xiao, I have a favor to ask. Would you be willing?"

"Speak!" Xiao Tianyu replied bluntly.

"If something happens to me, I'd ask you to take Ling'Er away from the Long Family and tell her not to seek revenge, can you?" Long Xiaoyun's tone carried a tinge of plea.

He had never asked anyone for anything in his life, but now for his only daughter's safety, he had no choice but to ask Xiao Tianyu, suspecting intuitively that Xiao Tianyu was someone with connections.

"No!" Xiao Tianyu refused.

"..." Both Long Xiaoyun and Lu Die'Er were taken aback by his words.

Lu Die'Er thought to herself, does this guy have any sense of compassion? He claims to be Long Ling'Er's sworn brother, looks like Long Ling'Er misjudged him.

"It's alright!" After a moment, Long Xiaoyun regained his composure: "I, Long Xiaoyun, am finished now. You not wanting to protect Ling'Er and risking offending those people is understandable."

He then looked at Lu Die'Er and continued: "Die'Er, I probably have only a few days left."

"This…"

"Speak!"

"About a week!" Lu Die'Er's eyes shimmered as she continued: "But I will do my best!"

Lu Die'Er's master, the Medicine King, had been sworn brothers with Long Xiaoyun. Now, although the Medicine King was no longer alive, Lu Die'Er cherished their past friendship, which was why she came to personally diagnose Long Xiaoyun.

Moreover, her diagnostic methods were not those of modern medicine like IVs and injections; she relied on ancient medical techniques, the essence of the Ancient Martial Realm, unparalleled by Western medicine.

"Butterfly Valley Medical Immortal?" At that moment, Xiao Tianyu spoke coldly: "Can't even solve a minor poison, yet dares to call oneself a Medical Immortal, really..."

Eh?

Upon hearing this, Lu Die'Er was stunned that someone questioned her medical skill. How could this be? She had inherited the true teachings of the Poisonous Hand Medicine King, reputed to cure all poisons worldwide, yet here she was doubted.

"Brother Xiao!" At this moment, Long Ling'Er, who was standing outside, seemed to have heard Xiao Tianyu's words.

She stepped delicately into the bedroom and addressed Xiao Tianyu: "Sister Die'Er is a disciple of the Poisonous Hand Medicine King, you should know about the Poisonous Hand Medicine King, known as the murderous doctor, curing one, killing one, but Sister Die'Er has truly inherited his teachings, reputed to be able to cure all poisons, hence called Medical Immortal!"

"So, has the poison been cured?"

Eh?

Upon hearing this, both Lu Die'Er and Long Ling'Er were left speechless.

Xiao Tianyu calmly replied: "Did they not say there's no poison that can't be cured?"

"But… but this is Gu poison!"

"And Gu poison isn't a poison?"

"..." Lu Die'Er was dumbfounded, couldn't this guy avoid exposing weaknesses, wouldn't he feel unwell if he didn't? Besides, what did I ever do to provoke him?

Reflecting on this, Lu Die'Er gave Xiao Tianyu a sidelong glance: "Didn't you say it was a minor poison? Then I'd like to see how you detoxify it!"

Anyone can boast, but the key is proving if one has the skill to detoxify.

Xiao Tianyu shrugged dismissively, stepped forward to Long Xiaoyun, and asked: "Can you endure anything?"

"So long as it detoxifies, anything is alright?"

"Urine, can you drink it?" Xiao Tianyu suddenly asked.

What?

Hearing this, both Lu Die'Er and Long Ling'Er were dumbfounded, did he just say let my dad drink urine? Is he serious, is urine something you can just drink? And are you sure urine can detoxify?

"This…" Long Xiaoyun was also stunned. If urine could indeed detoxify, it might be worth it, but if not, wouldn't it be for nothing?

No, absolutely not, drinking urine if it gets out, would ruin my life's reputation.

"Just kidding!" At that moment, Xiao Tianyu gave a faint smile, causing Long Xiaoyun to exhale deeply.

Long Ling'Er and Lu Die'Er both rolled their eyes at Xiao Tianyu, they almost believed his joke.

They muttered inwardly, would this scoundrel die if he didn't joke?

Yet suddenly, Xiao Tianyu moved, pressing Long Xiaoyun's Jade Pillow Acupoint, causing him to fall asleep, Long Ling'Er exclaimed: "Brother Xiao, what are you doing?"

"Detoxifying your father!"

"Detoxifying?"

"Yes!" Xiao Tianyu nodded.

"Does detoxification require pressing the Jade Pillow Acupoint?"

"He needs to be unconscious to feed urine," Xiao Tianyu said seriously.

He didn't think Long Xiaoyun would drink urine willingly, hence, knocking him out.

"..." Lu Die'Er and Long Ling'Er were left in shock, what, this... this guy really intended to make him drink urine, wasn't he joking?

Hey, are you sure urine can detoxify? And how do you already know what kind of Gu poison it is without diagnosing it?

This... isn't this way too deceptive?
