Chapter 369: Complete Destiny, Resolving Fire Poison
As the white flames rose, Su Wan’er’s body began to undergo some changes.
Threads of dark red energy dispersed from her pores.
The deep bone marrow pain made Su Wan’er bite her lip.
Watching Hu Tudou’s healing method, Chen Changsheng smiled and said, “This method is quite novel. How did you come up with it?”
Hearing this, Hu Tudou replied, “Some ingredients are extremely difficult to cook; relying solely on high temperatures can’t extract their deliciousness.”
“But if the temperature continues to rise, it will ruin the integrity and appearance of the ingredients.”
“So, I found this special flame for cooking.”
As he spoke, Hu Tudou glanced at Su Wan’er in the tub. “Sir, this cold ice flame can force the fire poison within her out without harming her body. If paired with a specially concocted medicine, it should be able to eliminate about seventy percent of her fire poison.”
“But this fire poison originates from her womb; to completely eradicate it, she would need a complete transformation.”
“Alternatively, one could use the Thousand-Year Cold Jade to remove the root of her fire poison in the marrow, but it seems I can’t achieve either of these.”
Facing Hu Tudou’s words, Chen Changsheng smiled and said, “Don’t worry, since I came to find you, it means I have a way to eliminate the fire poison.”
After saying this, Chen Changsheng took out a piece of Thousand-Year Cold Jade the size of a palm.
Interestingly, it seemed to carry some inscriptions.
“Sir, what is this?”
“A miraculous prescription; I’ve already memorized the recipe on it.”
“Speaking of which, this thing has been with me for quite some time.”
“What it carries is not just the prescription, but also some of my past memories.”
Upon hearing this, Su Wan’er, who was suffering, spoke up. “Destiny, this is your treasured possession; how can Wan’er let you do this?”
Saying this, Su Wan’er attempted to climb out of the tub to interrupt the treatment.
“You should just stay calm.”
Before Su Wan’er could make any movements, Chen Changsheng pressed her back down.
“Miss, don’t be so impulsive. You’re completely n*ked; if you come out, won’t I see everything?”
“Moreover, the past is ultimately the past. I cannot forget it, but I cannot live while carrying it with me.”
After saying this, Chen Changsheng threw the Thousand-Year Cold Jade into the air.
The Thousand-Year Cold Jade hovered above Su Wan’er’s head, and some faint dark red energy was drawn out by the jade.
The increased pain finally made Su Wan’er cry out.
Looking at the gradually dimming Thousand-Year Cold Jade in the air, Chen Changsheng felt momentarily dazed.
This Thousand-Year Cold Jade was the original prescription for Sky-Replenishing Ointment, a piece of luck he obtained in the Ancient Forbidden Ground.
Back then, he was still weak. To retrieve the bodies for the Shangqing View’s master, he had to collaborate with the Left Emperor of Xuanwu Kingdom.
Yet, time passed, and in the blink of an eye, he had come to this day.
Once, the Left Emperor’s formidable strength seemed extraordinary, while the mysterious Ancient Forbidden Ground no longer felt so terrifying.
In less than thirty thousand years, fate had pushed him to this position.
This period felt long, but in the river of time, it was merely an inconspicuous ripple.
He had only taken half a step forward.
Thinking of this, Chen Changsheng sighed lightly and said, “Time really is relentless.”
“However, when I think about it, I seem to have never truly been a Heavenly Prodigy.”
“Tudou, do you think I have the right to be a Heavenly Prodigy at least once?”
Hearing this, Hu Tudou immediately replied, “Of course, sir is qualified!”
“Sir is a prodigy beyond all others; even if all living beings in the world were combined, they wouldn’t match even a single fingertip of yours.”
“Ha ha ha!”
“You girl, you can eat whatever you want, but don’t speak carelessly.”
“People of extraordinary talent come forth from every generation, and I’m merely one among them; how dare I claim to be invincible.”
“However, in a single era, it wouldn’t be a problem to declare oneself as the best.”
“Just wait, I’ll go change into a proper outfit. A prodigy can’t lack any flair.”
“Also, since I’m already a prodigy, don’t call me sir; just call me Destiny.”
“From now on, my nickname will be Complete Destiny.”
After saying this, Chen Changsheng turned and walked toward an empty room.
Looking at Chen Changsheng’s back, Hu Tudou’s lips curved slightly upward.
Because she knew, the once small scholar had returned, and now with even more confidence.
When they first met, she sensed he had something on his mind.
What happened afterward only confirmed this.
…
A cup of tea’s time passed.
Su Wan’er’s fire poison was completely eradicated, and that invaluable Thousand-Year Cold Jade turned to ashes.
The disgusting sores quickly began to scab over.
However, Su Wan’er was now faint from the intense pain.
“Creak~”
The door opened, and a figure stepped out.
Facing this figure, Hu Tudou’s lips lifted slightly.
The dark golden robe exuded a noble and composed aura, and the jewel-encrusted belt made his figure appear even taller.
Adornments covered his body, with only a jade pendant at his waist.
With a faint smile, a well-defined face, and eyes holding a trace of disdain towards the world.
All these elements combined represented the unparalleled “Jade-like Person, Destiny in a Class of His Own.”
“Whoosh!”
The folding fan opened, snapping Hu Tudou back to reality.
“Little fox, if you keep looking, you’ll get drawn in.”
Hearing this, Hu Tudou said, “Destiny, you should have been like this earlier.”
“It’s just an appearance; it’s not important.”
“Handsome and dashing is me; sinister and ruthless is me; decadent and downcast is me; all of these are me.”
“I am who I am; how I appear doesn’t matter.”
In response to Chen Changsheng’s words, Hu Tudou grinned, “It seems Destiny wants to walk through the academy a bit.”
“You must take me along this time.”
“No problem, but you need to dress up a bit.”
As her voice fell, Hu Tudou waved her right hand, her stature instantly shrinking a bit.
Even her appearance became somewhat younger.
After assessing Hu Tudou’s transformed state, Chen Changsheng said, “Your aura and strength are well concealed, but your appearance doesn’t seem to have changed much.”
Hearing this, Hu Tudou replied, “Those people won’t recognize me.”
“Since I established the Anxin Inn, many little foxes in my clan have imitated my appearance to transform.”
“Not mentioning anywhere else, in the Anxin Inn, there are a few little foxes that resemble me.”
“I’ll temporarily close the Anxin Inn, and those little foxes will definitely come out to play.”
“When that happens, others will only suspect I’m the little kitchen maid of the Anxin Inn, not the renowned Culinary Immortal.”
“Ha ha ha!”
“What a clever tactic; I taught you something, and you truly learned it well.”
