"What are you talking about? Go out when Master tells you to." Without waiting for Xiao Ming to speak, Nalan Jie rebuked.
"This... okay." Nalan Su sighed and prepared to leave.
Xiao Ming looked at the scene and couldn't help but think, 'This Nalan Jie is really majestic in the Nalan family, his son didn't even say a word when he reprimanded him, no wonder Nalan Yanran could only depend on the Misty Cloud Sect to go to the Xiao family if she wanted to annul her marriage, if Nalan Yanran hadn't been accepted as a disciple by Yun Yun, she really might have had to marry Xiao Yan."
Xiao Ming shook his head when he thought of this, there were many women like Nalan Yanran in this world, Yun Yun was able to resist the pressure from the Nalan family and the risk of offending him to propose to the Xiao family to annul the marriage, she was really good to Nalan Yanran, just like his master, Elder Huo, was good to him.
At the thought of his master, the corner of Xiao Ming's mouth quirked a smile.
With the Seven Illusions Green Spirit Saliva obtained from the Nalan family, his master would definitely be able to become a sixth-tier alchemist.
Dispelling the thoughts in his mind, Xiao Ming said to Nalan Su who was about to leave along with the maids, "Family members don't have to leave, you can stay here, if any situation happens, you can also be of help."
It was a very dangerous thing for a Heavenly Flame to enter the body, although Xiao Ming thought that his flame control technique was enough to ensure that no problems would arise, everything had an exception, so it was better for Nalan Su to stay.
Seeing Xiao Ming say this, Nalan Su, who was about to reach the door, hurriedly returned.
Ignoring him, Xiao Ming said to Nalan Jie, "Take off your shirt, otherwise, the heat from the flames will set your clothes on fire. When you have taken it off, go to bed and sit cross-legged."
Nalan Jie listened to the words and did as he was told.
Xiao Ming walked over to the bed and looked at Nalan Jie's thin body, which looked like a skeleton after taking off his clothes and couldn't help but squint his eyes.
Without hesitation, Xiao Ming slowly wiggled one of his fingers, and a sliver of red flame danced around his fingertip.
Xiao Ming stared at the wisp of red flame and calmly said, "I will begin, let me first explain to you that using the Heavenly Flame to enter Elder Nalan's body will be an extremely dangerous thing to do, so you must be prepared for certain extremely bad circumstances..."
At these words, Nalan Su's face changed slightly, but he could only nod with a bitter smile.
"Hahahaha, Master Xiao Ming, just perform the treatment, I trust in you!" When things reached this point, Nalan Jie, who was the subject of the medical treatment, looked very calm and did not seem too worried.
Xiao Ming slowly nodded, his soul power slowly moved out of his body, then wrapped that tuft of red flame around his finger, trying to suppress its scorching heat, before slowly moving it to Nalan Jie's upper back.
The red flame finally entered Nalan Jie's body, and Nalan Jie, who had been calm, let out a ragged gasp at that moment, and his body trembled violently.
Xiao Ming's soul power controlled the red flame as it quickly passed through some of the major meridians and gradually approached the bones of the body that were covered by the branded poison.
With the extension of his soul power, the condition of Nalan Jie's body also appeared in Xiao Ming's mind. Sensing that the bones had almost turned black, Xiao Ming's forehead gradually wrinkled.
Originally, he thought that with a few years in advance, the condition of Nalan Jie's poisoning should not be so profound, but now, it seemed that it was not so.
'It seems that today, it is impossible to expel the toxin all at once, it is better to go little by little...'
With a murmur in his heart, Xiao Ming's soul power enveloped the red flame, then slowly approached the dark bones that were enveloped by the toxin.
As it got closer, Xiao Ming's soul power began to gradually loosen, and the temperature of the red flame slowly rose.
As the temperature of the red flame increased, Nalan Jie's face gradually showed a sense of pain, a bead of sweat appeared on his cheeks, and his dry palms were clenched so tightly that blue veins appeared on his arms.
The red flame that was enveloped in soul power stopped rising as it reached full temperature.
Xiao Ming slowly inhaled the hot air, and with a thought, the red flame inside Nalan Jie's body covered the black bone.
"Ah...!"
On top of the bed, Nalan Jie, who had his eyes tightly closed, opened his eyes with a bang, and from his mouth came out a hoarse roar of intense pain, and a fierce aura emanated from his body.
"Father, are you all right!?" Looking at his father who suddenly opened his eyes and screamed, Nalan Su hurriedly asked.
"Don't move! Otherwise, I won't be responsible if the treatment fails because of you." Looking at Nalan Jie who was covered in sweat, Xiao Ming said indifferently.
The corners of Nalan Jie's mouth twitched as he endured the sharp pain in his body, he gritted his teeth and said, "Sorry, I didn't control myself just now, Master Xiao Ming, continue!"
"Mm." Xiao Ming replied, then closed his eyes to continue the treatment.
When everyone fell silent, the atmosphere in the room became quiet.
Inside Nalan Jie's body, red flames enveloped the periphery of the black bones.
Although the two seemed to be close, with a mental inspection, it could be seen that there was an extremely small gap between them.
This was because the temperature of the Heavenly Flame was so terrifying that if it came into direct contact with Nalan Jie's bones, even if the other party was a Dou King powerhouse, he would definitely be severely injured or even die in an instant!
The scorching heat slowly penetrated from the flames into the black bones.
As the red flame continued to burn, wisps of black mist silently emanated from the bones.
Then, before they could escape, a cluster of red flames rushed over them and engulfed them.
The terrifying heat gradually calcined the poisonous mist, which even a Dou Emperor would have to treat with care, into nothingness.
As time passed quietly, the blackened skeleton that was enveloped in Xiao Ming's red flames gradually returned to its normal color at a speed that was visible to the naked eye.
Outside, at this moment, Nalan Jie's entire body was already drenched in sweat, his face pale, constantly twitching, the slightest sound of sucking in cold air leaking from his teeth.
"Xiao... Xiao... Master Ming, still not... done?"
His fists were clenched tightly, the veins were shrinking in his arms like tiny snakes, and Nalan Jie's voice was a little hoarse and shaky.
Behind him, Xiao Ming's face looked normal, not tired at all, but looking at Nalan Jie's withered body that was shaking badly, he still said softly.
"Since you can't endure any longer, then this time, the poison detoxification will stop here for now, the branded poison can't be completely eliminated at once, in the following days, you will have to come to me until it is completely eliminated."
"That branded poison, can it really be detoxified at once?" At these words, Nalan Jie couldn't help but be surprised.
After these two years, no one knew the intractability of this branded poison better than him, although Pill King Gu He had proposed a treatment method using Heavenly Flame, it was just a proposal after all, now that this proposal turned out to be effective, he would naturally be surprised.
"Naturally, there is no problem." Xiao Ming smiled slightly and said.
"Then I'll be bothering Master Xiao Ming for the next few days!" Nalan Jie hurriedly nodded and spoke in a hoarse voice, "That said, right now I just felt excruciating pain from the Heavenly Flame just now, for Master Xiao Ming to be able to possess a Heavenly Flame at this age really makes me admire you."
He was able to endure the pain caused by this branded poison for two years, but he could not endure long under the burning of the Heavenly Flame.
Xiao Ming dared to devour the Heavenly Flame and succeeded, which left him in awe, especially since Xiao Ming was this young and was able to accurately manipulate the Heavenly Flame inside another person's body, so he must have devoured the Heavenly Flame a long time ago. How old was Xiao Ming at that time?
Thinking about this, Nalan Jie couldn't help but be astonished.
It was true that someone who could have such accomplishments at such a young age could not be described by the phrase "exceptional talent" alone.
