Super Combat Soldier

Chapter 211: Chapter 210 [Murong Xin]

Ye Tianchen could never have imagined that to neutralize the poison in Murong Xin, it wasn’t just about Murong Xin stripping naked and squatting in a large wooden tub filled with hot water. Surprisingly, it also required him to strip naked and squat down in it too.

Both individuals faced each other, completely bare, creating a scene that was unimaginably blood-pumping.

Despite being pale from the Detoxification Herb and having a trace of blood on her lips from Ye Tianchen’s strike, it couldn’t hide her exceptional beauty.

Her explosively sexy figure, with curves and contours in all the right places, especially in a young woman of her age, possessed such delicate, smooth, and fair skin that it was impossible not to fantasize.

If he really stripped naked as well, facing Murong Xin in the crowded wooden tub, Ye Tianchen couldn’t guarantee he wouldn’t look elsewhere, couldn’t guarantee he wouldn’t get a nosebleed, couldn’t guarantee he wouldn’t get an erection, couldn’t guarantee he wouldn’t...

”Master Zhang, I indeed don’t understand; I only knew that to neutralize the poison from the Detoxification Herb, one had to make a sacrifice, but I never imagined it would be this kind of unconventional sacrifice...” Ye Tianchen said with a mournful expression.

Indeed, all Ye Tianchen knew about the Detoxification Herb was that it wasn’t incurable, but that a cure was possible—it required one person to pay with their life to detoxify another.

To put it bluntly, it involved attracting the Detoxification Herb into one’s own body, poisoning oneself to detoxify another.

What Ye Tianchen didn’t know was that this method would require him and Murong Xin to embrace each other, completely naked.

According to what Zhang Yide said, they also needed to kiss, which...

Even though Murong Xin was exceptionally beautiful and well-developed, such a scene was somewhat embarrassing.

Moreover, since Ye Tianchen and Murong Xin were strangers, if he couldn’t control the urge to have an erection at the crucial moment and thrust in, that would really spell disaster.

”Detoxification Herb is extremely cold, to expel it from the body, you must be in this wooden tub filled with hot water, making the Detoxification Herb feel the temperature outside the body, unable to adapt, and just then, sensing a better host outside, it will rush out and enter your body. From the utmost yin to the utmost yang, everything in the universe complements each other. As a Superpower User, you should understand this point, and that this must be done to neutralize the poison in Murong Xin,” Zhang Yide said earnestly to Ye Tianchen.

”Then, then could you spare me a pair of shorts? To be completely naked, that’s quite embarrassing...” Ye Tianchen said with a sheepish grin.

”No!” Zhang Yide responded decisively.

”You...” Ye Tianchen was taken aback and was at a loss for words.

”Why do you think I had Murong Yudou instruct his men to guard within a hundred meters radius, not allowing any noise, even the bark of a dog, to be heard? It’s because the Detoxification Herb is very peculiar, said to be both a grass and a parasite, similar to a bloodsucking worm. At the slightest noise, the Detoxification Herb will burrow deeper into the host’s body, even reaching the organs. Then, there truly is no cure,” Zhang Yide explained to Ye Tianchen.

After a moment of stunned silence, Zhang Yide and his granddaughter Zhang Ruotong went behind a large cloth screen, which was completely opaque. Zhang Yide, being a Divine Doctor Ghost Hand, naturally maintained decorum and wouldn’t gaze carelessly at patients.

And considering his granddaughter Zhang Ruotong was a young girl, she couldn’t just stand in front of the wooden tub, watching Ye Tianchen naked, watching him embracing and kissing Murong Xin, right?

”Let me know when you’re ready!”

Zhang Yide whispered from behind the screen.

At that moment, Ye Tianchen slowly stripped off all his clothes and lit a cigarette. The small pharmacy was already filled with mist from the hot water in the large tub, and now it became completely shrouded in smoke from Ye Tianchen’s smoking.

Ye Tianchen squatted down in the tub, naked, facing Murong Xin across from him, who was hanging on for dear life, her pale little face ghostly. He hesitated no longer, as any further hesitation would likely mean he wouldn’t even start detoxifying Murong Xin before she died.

He abruptly closed his eyes and hugged Murong Xin’s naked body, their skin pressed tightly together. He could feel the fullness and softness of her chest and her delicate, smooth, and fair skin.

But now was not the time to appreciate or enjoy these sensations; his lips stamped onto Murong Xin’s mouth, while the cigarette in his right hand flew out of the tub, igniting nine candles that had been prepared on the pharmacy’s wall.

Zhang Yide, sitting behind the large cloth screen with Zhang Ruotong by his side, saw the nine candles lit, and immediately opened a gold box in front of him with twelve golden needles inside. Six had been used earlier to seal several acupoints for Ye Tianchen, leaving six remaining to force out the Detoxification Herb from Murong Xin’s body.

As a Superpower User of the Healing type, who once extended the life of the highest leader by twenty years, Zhang Yide’s title as the Divine Doctor Ghost Hand was certainly not an empty reputation.

Upon seeing that all nine candles had been lit, his Superpower Perception spread out rapidly. Using his intense Superpower Perception, he, through a curtain that absolutely could not be seen through, threw the remaining six Golden Needles into several major acupoints of Murong Xin to increase the force driving out the Detoxification Herb from her body.

”I have done what I needed to do; the rest is all up to you!” Zhang Yide communicated to Ye Tianchen using the Superpower Sound Transmission Skill.

At this moment, Ye Tianchen was also completely focused. This was no joke; the nature of the Detoxification Herb was very domineering, acknowledged as incurable, which alone signified its perilous nature. One need not mention the present; even in an apocalypse filled with mighty beings, encountering the Detoxification Herb was not something easily remedied.

Whether or not Murong Xin could survive the Detoxification Herb now entirely depended on Ye Tianchen himself.

Meanwhile, Murong Xin, due to the six Golden Needles Zhang Yide had lodged in her body, gradually awoke from her deathlike state. When she saw Ye Tianchen, naked in front of her, she was completely stunned, and when she realized she was also completely naked, her lips parted as if to scream, but Ye Tianchen quickly sealed her lips with his.

”Mmm...”

Murong Xin tried to speak, but her sensuous lips were sealed by Ye Tianchen’s. She attempted to struggle free, but was tightly embraced by Ye Tianchen’s naked body, able to only utter muffled sounds of resistance.

After a while, seeing that Murong Xin’s resistance had subsided somewhat, Ye Tianchen stared deeply into her eyes, signaling with his gaze not to struggle or resist.

When Ye Tianchen removed his lips and slightly loosened the grip around Murong Xue’s body, her face was already flushed red, and her body slightly pink, her arms encircling her chest.

”To dispel the poison, it must be done this way. Don’t ask anything, don’t think about anything, just let me do it!”

Ye Tianchen spoke earnestly, looking into Murong Xin’s eyes to make her trust him, to facilitate driving out the Detoxification Herb as quickly as possible.

”Mm...”

Murong Xin nodded shyly and softly, avoiding Ye Tianchen’s gaze.

Without hesitation, Ye Tianchen embraced Murong Xin, naked once more, their lips coming together in ambivalent intimacy that stirred the blood. Ye Tianchen feared he could hardly restrain himself from committing an injustice to Murong Xin.

Zhang Yide perceived everything and said nothing, but left through a side door. Zhang Ruotong followed her grandfather, looking somewhat worried.

”Grandfather, will he die?” Zhang Ruotong couldn’t help asking.

”A nine in ten chance of death,” Zhang Yide shook his head and answered.

”Grandfather, he is a good person. Can’t you think of a way to save him?”

Zhang Ruotong was worried about Ye Tianchen. Back at the entrance of the Zhang family courtyard, she had been worried for her grandfather’s safety, utterly terrified and unable to enter. If it hadn’t been for Ye Tianchen, she couldn’t imagine how anxious she would have been.

”The Detoxification Herb is incurable; it inherently involves trading one person’s life for another’s. That is precisely why I did not agree to save Murong Yudou’s granddaughter. Despite this young man’s unruly demeanor, he possesses a solid principle for his actions, a sense of nobility. Now, all I can hope for is that his Superpower is unfathomably deep, enabling him to resolve the Detoxification Herb on his own!” Zhang Yide sighed as he spoke.

In fact, Ye Tianchen sensed that Zhang Yide was a master of Superpowers, and Zhang Yide could also see that this young man before him was immensely strong, perhaps to an unfathomable extent. The Detoxification Herb was too severe, and there was only so much Zhang Yide could do.

The only hope now was that Ye Tianchen was strong enough to suppress the Detoxification Herb, and dispel it, though this possibility was nearly non-existent. Zhang Yide didn’t voice it, as he didn’t wish for Ye Tianchen to die, admiring on some level this young man who sacrificed for others.

”But Grandfather...”

Zhang Ruotong wanted to say more but was interrupted by her grandfather, Zhang Yide.

”Let’s go and see the courtyard. The only one who can help Ye Tianchen now is himself. The only thing we can do for him is maintain a quiet environment. It’s just a pity that top-notch experts have already come to kill Murong Yudou!” Zhang Yide, his eyes carrying a hint of a killing intent, spoke and then walked directly towards the courtyard.
