With that, he ran to Gongsun Xiaoxuan's side.
When the crowd in the alchemy field saw this scene, they all revealed puzzled expressions. They didn't know what was going on with Gongsun Xiaoxuan.
Immediately, people started to discuss amongst themselves, "What happened to senior sister Gongsun Xiaoxuan? You couldn't have suffered a backlash while using your alchemy skills, right? "
"That's a possibility. Didn't you see her partner suddenly increase the amount of star power?" Maybe it was at that time that the alchemy technique backfired? "
"Hey, stop talking nonsense. Maybe it's because of some other reason?"
The crowd started to clamor. Even the Medicine Boy in the alchemy plaza raised their eyebrows. They were curious as to why Gongsun Xiaoxuan, who was still in the alchemy field, would suddenly suffer such a backlash.
Gongsun Yun, who was on the high platform, suddenly opened his eyes and immediately took a step forward as he stared blankly at Gongsun Xiaoxuan's direction. He was clearer than anyone else about the two star alchemy technique, how could there be a situation where one was affected by the backlash while concocting pills.
Although Gongsun Yun was very anxious for his daughter's safety, his shrewdness over the years did not cause him to show any signs of panic. If not for the Grandmaster Xu Ye, he would have rushed down to see what was happening to his daughter right now.
At the moment, he took out a communication conch, but the most important thing was that the current Gongsun Xiaoxuan couldn't receive the message he sent over. When she looked at Shi Ling, she remembered that he didn't have any contact with Shi Ling, so he couldn't contact Shi Ling. As a result, he was at a loss of what to do.
When Yuan Sha saw this scene, he immediately sneered and said: "Sir hall master, your daughter is too careless. She actually dropped the chain at such a critical time, if things go wrong, she won't be able to continue participating in the competition. It's not worth it to throw her life away."
After Gongsun Yun heard Yuan Hao's weird words, his expression became a bit cold. However, after he took a deep breath, he said with a deep voice, "Don't worry, vice president hall master."
Yuan Sha laughed again when he heard this. He was obviously in a good mood. Gongsun Xiaoxuan and Shi Ling had cut off one of his son's hands. Now that Gongsun Xiaoxuan and the others made such a mistake, how could he not feel happy?
However, at this moment, Xu Ye, who was sitting on the Spiritual Seat, suddenly opened his mouth and said, "Xiao Yun!"
Gongsun Yun walked to Xu Ye's side and asked, "Great Grandmaster, do you have any instructions?"
Xu Ye poured a bottle of wine into his mouth and said, "Is that your daughter?"
Gongsun Yun nodded. At the same time, Xu Ye also looked over and saw the sad beauty and the fresh blood Gongsun Xiaoxuan spat out. He smiled and said, "Go take a look. As a father, I know you are very worried right now."
When Gongsun Yun heard this, he cupped his hands gratefully towards Xu Ye and said, "Thank you, Great Grandmaster!"
After saying that, he turned around. In the next moment, a powerful mana fluctuation burst out from his body. Then, he disappeared from where he was and reappeared beside Shi Ling.
Immediately, he anxiously walked to Gongsun Xiaoxuan's side and saw Shi Ling sitting cross-legged on the ground to heal Gongsun Xiaoxuan. However, at this moment, Gongsun Xiaoxuan's face was even darker, as if there was no improvement.
At this moment, Shi Ling naturally noticed Gongsun Yun's arrival and immediately said: "Gongsun hall master?"
Gongsun Yun squatted down and looked at Gongsun Xiaoxuan's darkening face. Immediately, he asked in a deep voice, "Why has Xuan'er become like this?"
He seemed to be asking Shi Ling why he did not protect his daughter, and Shi Ling was not angry about this. As a father, when he saw his daughter getting hurt, he was naturally very worried, and excitement was unavoidable. At this moment, Shi Ling took out the purple incense and passed it to Gongsun Yun, saying:
Just now, when Xiaoxuan and I were purifying the purple incense, we suddenly discovered that someone had buried the poison inside it. When we increased the amount of fire to purify it, the poison had already spread out, and the reason why only Xiaoxuan was poisoned was because she was the leader of the entire purifying process. As a result, the poison flowed through her Star Flame and entered her body.
When Gongsun Yun heard this, he took the purple incense and immediately began to identify the poison within. With his sharp eyes, he naturally recognized the poison with a single glance and immediately said with a deep voice, "Fire poison!"
As a middle Medicine Boy, Shi Ling naturally knew what fire poison was. It was a poison that was extracted from natural flames, and according to the fire's formation environment, the resulting fire poison would be different, but all fire poisons had a very unique characteristic, and that was they were not afraid of fire burning, because they themselves were fire type poison, so how could they burn and extinguish a flame? Of course not, it would only make the fire more and more intense.
At this moment, Shi Ling frowned. He immediately stood up and looked towards Yuan Hao, only to see Yuan Hao sneering at him.
At this time, Shi Ling finally understood that the fire poison was from Yuan Hao. As for when it was, Shi Ling was not clear. Perhaps before he and Gongsun Xiaoxuan met, he already prepared it.
Turning his head to look at Gongsun Yun, he saw Gongsun Yun picking up Gongsun Xiaoxuan and saying, "Xiaoxuan can no longer continue competing. I'm going to take her to the rescue now, if you want to continue competing, then continue competing. If you don't want to compete, then you can just leave, I won't blame you!"
Saying that, he let out a long sigh, turned around and disappeared, leaving Shi Ling standing blankly on the spot.
At the same time, the host of the competition who was on the stage shouted, "The second round of the competition has ended. Everyone stop refining the herbs!"
After saying that, all the Medicine Boy s stopped what they were doing, someone came over to record the amount of herbs they were refining, and very quickly, statistics were calculated.
The leader of the Great Assembly, who was standing on the high platform, took the list from the attendant and immediately began to speak, "I am here to announce the people who will advance to the third round!"
With that, he shouted at the top of his lungs, "The first name is Yuan Hao, Yang Xiong, and he's refining sixteen herbs; the second is Gongsun Xiaoxuan, and he's refining fifteen herbs; the third is …"
After the president announced the names, he said, "Those who can't get their names out, leave."
Shi Ling, who was still standing in place, started to hesitate. He could have entered the third round now, but without Gongsun Xiaoxuan as a partner, he was very uncertain, plus Gongsun Yun's words were still ringing in his ears: "Xiaoxuan can no longer continue competing, I'll take her to rescue her now, if you want to continue competing, then continue competing. If you don't want to compete, then you can just leave, I won't blame you!"
At this moment, Shi Ling was stuck in a dilemma.
