The Peerless Emperor

This is also why, after seeing Lan Fenger poisoned by the Netherworld Poison, Lan Ning and Lan Yi were on the verge of collapsing.

On Blue Phoenix Star, there was no cure for the Netherworld Poison.

The Netherworld Poison, an extremely precious toxin of the Netherworld Clan, could easily take Lan Ning's life. So valuable, its worth could match that of the entire Blue Phoenix Star.

Lan Ning could not understand why his daughter would be afflicted by such a poison. To use such a precious substance on his own daughter seemed like a complete waste!

Although Ye Xin had never met Lan Ning or Lan Yi, within such a short time, she had guessed that one of them must be her maternal grandfather, and the other her mother's father.

Ye Xin, unable to deny Lan Ning's words, lightly shook her head, "No, Lin Qian must have a way to save mother. Even if he can't, his subordinates surely can."

"The antidote is ready, quickly administer it to your mother-in-law." Just as Ye Xin finished speaking and Lan Ning was ready to retort, Lin Qian suddenly spoke up. A crystal bottle appeared in his hand, which he passed to the former.

With a look of joy, Ye Xin hurriedly took the antidote, propping up her mother and uncorking the bottle to pour the contents down her throat.

The moment the pale green liquid entered Lan Fenger's mouth and her body, the diffuse greenish aura around her gradually dissipated until it scattered completely, as did the strange and eerie presence that had engulfed her.

Lan Ning and Lan Yi watched, eyes wide with disbelief, unable to utter a word as they looked at Lin Qian.

At that moment, the only thought in their minds was, what in the world was going on with Lan Fenger's son-in-law?

The Cultivation Technique manuscripts they had seen before were already shocking enough, and now, in the blink of an eye, he had cured the Netherworld Poison.

"This Netherworld Poison, just like that, it's cured?" It took a while for Lan Ning to come to his senses, looking at Lin Qian with amazement.

"Yes, this poison is basically child's play. Creating the corresponding antidote was quite easy," recalled Lin Qian with deserved confidence, thinking of Huasheng's scorn when he obtained the blood and symptoms of his mother-in-law.

Upon hearing these words, Lan Ning and Lan Yi were dumbstruck, speechless. The terrifying Netherworld Poison, in the eyes of this man, was simply a toxin that could be easily resolved.

"Oh, right, esteemed elders, my subordinate has also prepared ten thousand bottles of the antidote for the Netherworld Poison. Clearly, there is a formidable foe on Blue Phoenix Star, one adept in the use of poison. Wouldn't it be better to entrust these antidotes to the two of you for safekeeping?"

"Ten... ten thousand bottles?" Lan Ning, the grand elder of Starry Sky Blue Phoenix, lost all his composure, eyeing Lin Qian with a hint of doubt, "You mean..."

"Is that too few for you? If that's the case, shall I have my subordinate make another ten thousand bottles?"

As soon as Lin Qian uttered these words, Lan Ning hastily waved his hands, "Wait, wait, not necessary. Ten thousand bottles isn't too few, it's actually too many! My good great son-in-law, perhaps you don't know the value of a single bottle of this antidote?"

"The value of the Netherworld Poison alone is more than enough to buy the entire Blue Phoenix Star, and the worth of your antidote goes without saying. Ten thousand bottles... such wealth might be..."

Lin Qian was somewhat surprised by Lan Ning's words. It was only then that he realized indeed,

The Starry Sky Blue Phoenix Clan, to the ordinary powers in the Sea Spiral Star Domain, was truly formidable.

However, for the Xuanhuan Star within Lin Qian's body, it was just a minor concern. Creating such an antidote was practically negligible for Huasheng, who, upon understanding the medical principles, didn't even personally handle it but instead delegated other physicians in the Medical Department to concoct it.

Because it came so easily, Lin Qian subconsciously assumed the antidote wasn't anything special, but he had forgotten that to the people before him, it was, in fact, extremely precious.

Yet, after listening to Lan Ning's words, Lin Qian felt quite puzzled, "If that's the case, the Netherworld Poison is indeed very valuable. If I were the enemy, I would certainly use it against you since you are the esteemed Grand Elder of the Starry Sky Blue Phoenix, the most revered figure."

"Using it on one's own mother-in-law seems a bit much."

"No, to be precise, it was intended for me. Fenger was poisoned with Netherworld Poison while protecting me." Just then, Ye Nanxin suddenly spoke up, her voice full of guilt, "If only I were a bit stronger, this wouldn't have happened!"

Hearing his father-in-law's words, Lin Qian had a sudden realization, but he also stepped forward, "Father-in-law, you can't blame yourself. It's normal to have insufficient strength just after bloodline awakening. Besides, mother-in-law is fine now, so don't be too hard on yourself."

Lan Yi, standing to the side with furrowed brows, heard this and said, "Using Netherworld Poison on you... wouldn't that be even more wasteful? How could this be possible?"

"Perhaps the so-called Netherworld Clan is lurking on Lanyun Mountain, and father-in-law might have inadvertently revealed his bloodline talent there." Before Ye Nanxin could even respond, Lin Qian had already made his guess, "Father-in-law, is that what happened?"

Ye Nanxin also sighed deeply and nodded, "Indeed, on Lanyun Mountain, I showed Lan Fenger my current realm. Then the Netherworld Clan came out, intent on slaying me."

"This just got interesting. It seems likely that the Netherworld Clan recognized your bloodline, father-in-law. If they could identify your bloodline, the origins of the Netherworld Clan must not be simple," remarked Lin Qian, clicking his tongue, his eyes slightly narrowing.

At this moment, Ye Xin also nodded in agreement, "Husband, not only that, the members of the Netherworld Clan who have come this time are probably not weak and likely hold some status. If their origins are indeed as such, they must have arrived not long ago to be able to recognize father's bloodline at a glance. I fear they must have been teaching or communicating about this within their clan for a long time."

"So, it seems their coming here could be specifically to search for people with a bloodline like father's?"

"That's their purpose!"

Ye Xin's deduction made Lin Qian nod slightly, finding it quite plausible.

Clearly, the Netherworld Clan had found a way to travel from the Immortal Realm to the lower realms with the intention of either seeking pieces of Xuanyan Star or the bloodlines of the Xuanyan Human Clan. This clan must have been in the lower worlds for quite some time now, and their active members have consistently been tasked with seeking out anything related to Xuanyan.

They had immediately recognized his father-in-law's bloodline upon seeing it.

On the other hand, Lan Ning and Lan Yi were thoroughly confused by the discussion.

"What exactly does this mean? What bloodline?" Lan Yi asked, frowning as he looked toward his son-in-law.

Ye Xin turned around at this time and gave a respectful greeting, "Great Grandfather, Grandfather, my father's bloodline is that of the Immortal Realm. Clearly, the Netherworld Clan recognized father's bloodline and that's why they acted."

Upon hearing these words, Lan Ning and Lan Yi both rubbed their foreheads, overwhelmed not only with shock but now with fear as well.

They could only wonder, what on earth was going on with Lan Fenger? Not only had she secretly started a family, but the relatives she brought back were more sinister than the last.
