A Useless Person's Rise to Power: The Demon King's Addiction to Pampering

But his thoughts sank into the old man who called himself Xuanjizi. Was that old man a ghost?

If he really is a ghost, will there be any problems if he enters her spiritual sea?

But now that things have come to this, isn't it unnecessary for her to start worrying now?

However, the old man was able to see the problem with my body, which shows that he does have some skill!

Thinking of this, Feng Jiutian immediately sat up.

"Old man!" she called out into the void.

"What?"

At this moment, the old man's spirit floated out from the void, but this time it did not come with the Void Spirit Cauldron.

"With your intelligence, how could you not know why I called you out?" Feng Jiutian looked at Xuanji Zi and couldn't help but smile knowingly.

Xuanji Zi wanted to roll her eyes at her, so she floated to a chair and sat down, crossing her legs as if she were sitting cross-legged.

"Hey you brat, how can you ask someone for a favor like that?"

Xuanji Zi naturally understood Feng Jiutian's purpose in summoning him; it was simply to put on airs.

However, this girl doesn't seem to know how to give face!

Feng Jiutian sat up straight, looking at Xuanji Zi as if trying to see through him: "Is there something wrong with my body?"

When Xuanji Zi heard Feng Jiutian's question, she looked at her with a hint of pity: "It is poisonous, both innate and acquired."

Feng Jiutian's heart tightened, and he pressed for an answer.

"Tell me more about it."

"Hey, you're begging me!" Xuanji Zi's eyes narrowed into slits with a smile.

But soon, he received a cold look from Feng Jiutian, and suddenly felt bored!

“You’re so boring, alright, alright, I won’t tease you anymore.” Then he said seriously, “Innate poison: it should be something you’re born with. But acquired poison: it will block your spiritual meridians and make it impossible to cultivate.”

"Unable to cultivate..."

Feng Jiutian lowered her eyes, the veins on her fingers holding the hairpin bulging.

This must be why I have zero talent!

So, it's not that I lack talent, but that someone poisoned me and sealed my spiritual meridians, which is why I can't cultivate?

Feng Jiutian wasn't too surprised by this answer!

What treatment options are available?

Feng Jiutian raised his eyes to look at Xuanjizi and asked.

Xuanji Zi pretended to be troubled and stroked his beard before speaking after a long while.

"Yes, yes, but..."

"Do not talk nonsense!"

Feng Jiutian glanced at Xuanji Zi with some impatience, her hand spinning the hairpin faster and faster.

Xuanji Zi seemed to realize that Feng Jiutian was not in a good mood, so she stopped putting on airs and spoke seriously.

"The congenital poison you were afflicted with was originally intended to kill you in the womb. You were lucky to survive, but you have accumulated a lot of toxins. It will not be easy to cure, and it will not be able to be cured overnight."

Poisoning oneself to death in the womb?

The sinister look in Feng Jiutian's eyes grew even stronger. Who on earth could do such a cruel thing to an unborn child?

"What about the acquired poison?"

Feng Jiutian raised his head, looked at the flickering candlelight behind Xuanjizi, and asked in a deep voice.

“Acquired poison has accumulated over time, so it’s easier to treat than congenital poison, but…”

Xuanjizi looked at Feng Jiutian with a solemn expression and said in a rare deep voice, "These two poisons have now formed a delicate balance in your body, so you are currently unharmed."

balance?

Feng Jiutian's heart tightened, and she stood up abruptly, the hairpin in her hand plunging into the table.
