Although she had never used the Thirteen Ghost Needles before, the situation was urgent and she couldn't care less.

She took a deep breath to calm herself down, then took out an exquisite brocade box from her bosom. When she opened it, she saw a set of gold needles of different lengths and thicknesses neatly arranged inside.

These golden needles shone brightly in the sunlight, and it was obvious at a glance that they were not ordinary items. Qiao Wanwan carefully took out a few of the golden needles, concentrated her mind, and began to apply acupuncture to several major acupoints on the man's body.

Her technique is gentle and precise, and every stitch is just right, as if she is embroidering a beautiful painting.

As the golden needle pierced the man, his body trembled slightly, and his eyes, which were originally closed, slowly opened a crack.

He looked at the woman in front of him who was giving him an acupuncture, a complicated look flashed in his eyes, and then he fell into a coma.

After a long time, the man slowly opened his eyes.

He looked at the strange woman in front of him, a trace of confusion in his eyes.

"Who are you?"

The man asked in a weak voice.

Seeing him wake up, Qiao Wanwan was delighted and said, "You're awake? You've been poisoned by the Seven-Step Heartbreaking Powder, but I've temporarily controlled the toxicity. But it will take three more days to completely eliminate the toxin. I'll need daily acupuncture and medication."

Qiao Wanwan pointed to the prepared medicine soup on the side.

When the man heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He struggled to get up, but was held down by Qiao Wanwan.

"You are still very weak, don't move."

Qiao Wanwan said.

The man took a deep breath, calmed himself, then clasped his hands together and said, "Thank you very much for saving my life, young lady. My name is Fu Ci, nicknamed the Blood Domain Demon by the people of Jianghu. When I recover, I will definitely repay you for saving my life."

When Qiao Wanwan heard the words "Blood Domain Demon", she was shocked.

She remembered that in the plot, when Li Xiangyi was fifteen years old, he fought a great battle with a demon named "Blood Domain Demon" and finally defeated him, becoming famous from then on.

Unexpectedly, the seriously injured man in front of him turned out to be the Blood Domain Demon who was once so powerful in the martial arts world!

Qiao Wanwan pondered for a moment and said, "There's no need to repay me. I saved your life, so just consider it as a favor you owe me."

She didn't want to have too much to do with this devil, she just hoped that he could leave as soon as possible after recovering.

Fu Ci looked at Qiao Wanwan, a hint of embarrassment flashed in his eyes.

He didn't expect that this seemingly weak woman could face him, the "devil", so calmly.

"Okay, I, Fu Ci, owe you a favor."

Fu Ci said, "If you have any mission in the future, I will not refuse even if it means death."

The sun sets in the west and the sky becomes dark.

Qiao Wanwan had been out collecting herbs for a long time and had not returned yet. Li Xiangyi felt a little worried.

He followed the route that Qiao Wanwan usually took to collect herbs, and finally found her in a patch of grass at the foot of the mountain.

"elder sister!"

Li Xiangyi walked forward quickly, but found a strange man lying next to Qiao Wanwan.

"Sister, what's going on?"

Li Xiangyi asked, with a hint of caution in his tone.

When Qiao Wanwan saw Li Xiangyi, she quickly said, "Xiangyi, you've come just in time. Come over and help me carry him back."

Li Xiangyi walked closer and found that the man was pale and breathing weakly, obviously seriously injured.

Without asking any questions, he quickly stepped forward and helped the man up.

"Sister, what happened to him?"

Li Xiangyi asked as he supported the man.

"He was poisoned. I have temporarily controlled the toxicity, but further treatment is needed."

Qiao Wanwan said, "Let's take him back first."

The two of them worked together to help Fu Ci back to the courtyard they rented.

Qiao Wanwan placed Fu Ci on the bed and began to give him acupuncture.

Li Xiangyi stood aside, watching Qiao Wanwan's skillful technique, his heart full of curiosity.

"Sister, what are you doing?"

Li Xiangyi asked.

"I'm using acupuncture to expel the poison from him."

Qiao Wanwan answered, but her hands did not stop moving.

"What poison was he poisoned with?"

"Seven-step Heartbreaking Powder."

"Seven-step Heartbreaking Powder?"

Li Xiangyi exclaimed, "That's one of the most powerful poisons in the martial arts world. How did he get poisoned?"

"Well...I'll tell you later."

Qiao Wanwan removed the needle and breathed a sigh of relief. She turned to Li Xiangyi, who was standing beside her, and said, "Xiangyi, help me straighten him up and feed him this bowl of medicine."

Li Xiangyi nodded, walked forward and carefully helped Fu Ci up, letting him lean against the head of the bed.

Qiao Wanwan handed the bowl of brown medicine to Li Xiangyi. Li Xiangyi took the bowl and fed the medicine to Fu Ci spoonful by spoonful.

After Fu Ci took the medicine, Qiao Wanwan carefully took his pulse and confirmed that the toxicity had been controlled. Only then did she feel completely relieved.

She said to Li Xiangyi, "Okay, Xiangyi, let's go out and let him have a good rest."

The two of them tiptoed out of the room and into the yard.

The moon has risen, and the cold moonlight sprinkles in the yard, covering everything around with a veil.

Li Xiangyi stood beside Qiao Wanwan, looking at her gentle profile. Finally, he couldn't help asking, "Sister, who is this person...? Do you know him?"

Qiao Wanwan knew that she would have to tell Li Xiangyi about this matter sooner or later, and she also believed that Li Xiangyi would understand.

She pondered for a moment and then said slowly, "I met him while collecting herbs. He was unconscious and poisoned, and his condition was extremely critical."

She paused, then continued, "I brought him back for treatment. He woke up for a while and told me his name was Fu Ci, known in the martial arts world as... the Blood Domain Demon."

When speaking of the four words "Blood Domain Demon", Qiao Wanwan lowered her voice slightly, as if she was a little hesitant.

She secretly observed Li Xiangyi's expression, wanting to see how he would react.

"What? The Blood Domain Demon?" Li Xiangyi exclaimed in surprise upon hearing this. He suddenly pulled Qiao Wanwan's arm and protected her behind him. He asked nervously, "Sister, are you okay? Did he do anything to you?"

Li Xiangyi's reaction warmed Qiao Wanwan's heart. She knew that Li Xiangyi was worried about her safety.

However, Li Xiangyi seemed to have forgotten at this time that Qiao Wanwan had already practiced the Mingyu Gong to the fifth level, and was already considered a first-class master in the martial arts world. Ordinary people were no match for her at all.

Qiao Wanwan gently patted the back of Li Xiangyi's hand and soothed him, "Xiangyi, don't be nervous. I'm fine. Although he's called the 'Blood Domain Heavenly Demon,' he seems to be a little different from what's rumored."
