School Beauty's Peerless Soldier

Chapter 951: Fight Poison with Poison?


"Miyamoto Kuro, come over here."

Gesturing towards Miyamoto Kuro, Xu Fan called him to his side.

"From the time of the incident until now, is everybody here?"

"This..."

Hearing Xu Fan's question, Miyamoto Kuro couldn't help but feel a bit puzzled.

Now that their family members have been poisoned with a deadly toxin, shouldn't Xu Fan's priority be to detoxify them quickly?

Why suddenly ask this question?

"Uh... this..."

Stunned for a moment, Miyamoto Kuro explained, "Well, the subordinates here are almost all poisoned, and those who are taking care of them right now were brought in from outside by me."

"Got it."

After confirming the situation with Miyamoto Kuro, Xu Fan smiled and said, "Alright, bring me the paper and pen."

"Okay! I... I'll go right now!"

Seeing Xu Fan ask for paper and pen, it was clear he intended to treat his clansmen's injuries. Excitedly, Miyamoto Kuro agreed and promptly began giving orders.

Soon enough, the people sent by Miyamoto Kuro brought paper and pen to Xu Fan.

With the paper and pen in hand, Xu Fan quickly wrote down a prescription and then handed it to Miyamoto Kuro.

"Now, according to the amounts needed for everyone present, bring me the ingredients listed on this prescription."

"Understood."

Though not understanding what exactly was written on the prescription, Miyamoto Kuro trusted Xu Fan completely. Taking the prescription, he immediately sent subordinates to fetch the medicine.

The medicines listed on Xu Fan's prescription weren't uncommon, and given the Miyamoto Family's influence in Osaka, gathering them in a short period wasn't difficult.

After Miyamoto Kuro's subordinates left, Xu Fan pulled over a chair and calmly sat down.

This demeanor was a bit too relaxed.

Watching from the side, Honda Tsubasa couldn't help but shake her head.

Knowing full well that dozens of people were waiting for Xu Fan's treatment, how could he be so at ease?

"Xu Fan, can your medicine cure this poison?"

With the distressing expressions of the people before her, Honda Tsubasa sincerely doubted whether the prescription Xu Fan had given Miyamoto Kuro earlier would work.

"This prescription, ah, will definitely cure these guys."

Xu Fan glanced at everyone present before replying to Honda Tsubasa without even turning his head.

The poison in these people could indeed only be countered with spiritual power for relief.

But Xu Fan wasn't exactly deceiving Honda Tsubasa.

The prescription he had Miyamoto Kuro prepare had effects that were unexpected.

It wasn't long before the people instructed by Miyamoto Kuro returned swiftly with the remedies.

Xu Fan rose, checked the medicines they had brought, confirmed them without error, and instructed, "Alright, you guys, start brewing the medicine according to the prescription."

"Yes!"

Hearing Xu Fan's instructions, the Miyamoto Family members nodded and began setting up a medicine stove in the hall to brew the medicine.

With the fire lit, the Miyamoto Family members promptly followed the prescription, placing the medicinal ingredients into the stove.

"This..."

Watching from the side, Honda Tsubasa's expression became somewhat unpleasant.

Though not knowledgeable in medical skills, the scene before her seemed somewhat off.

All that was being thrown into the stove were uniform toxic substances!

Several of them were so poisonous that Miyamoto Family members dared not touch them!

Boiling in the water, the smoke was turning purple-green.

Covering her nose from the foul stench gradually wafting through the hall, Honda Tsubasa looked over at Xu Fan.

"Xu Fan, is this really the antidote?"

Not just Honda Tsubasa, all the poisoned Miyamoto Family members present were casting doubtful glances at Xu Fan.

Intuition told them that the medicine brewed from these ingredients might make them even more miserable if consumed!

"Mr. Xu Fan, what is it you're brewing here?"

From the crowd, questions arose swiftly, and Miyamoto Kuro, observing Xu Fan, was equally curious.

He wondered if the preparation Xu Fan was making might actually be poison?

To spare his people the agony, why not simply finish them off with a pot of poison—better short pain than long?

After all, he had just promised to save his clansmen.

"Curious about what's brewing in the pot?"

Sitting in the center of the hall, Xu Fan scanned the curious eyes around him with a slight squint before smiling, "Actually, the answer in your hearts is correct."

"What I'm preparing for you now is poison, the kind that guarantees death once consumed."

"What!"

As soon as Xu Fan finished speaking, the hall erupted in uproar!

If it weren't for being poisoned, they would have had the urge to fight Xu Fan to the death!

He had unmistakably promised to save them!

How could he suddenly change his mind!

At this moment, one by one, they turned to look at Miyamoto Kuro, hoping their Family Head would stand up for them.

"This..."

The pressure from everyone's gaze brought a tremendous burden to Miyamoto Kuro. He didn't dare oppose Xu Fan, but didn't want to watch his family be poisoned to death either.

"Master, didn't you promise to save them..."

Weakly, Miyamoto Kuro asked, tinged with a few notes of disappointment, which Xu Fan found amusing.

"Why can't you let me finish what I'm saying first?"

"Wha... What do you mean?"

Seeing the puzzled expressions, Xu Fan explained, "Haven't you heard the saying, 'fight poison with poison'?"

"The poison in your bodies has no other cure now; only by using my method, can this Heart-severing Powder counter the toxin."

"This Heart-severing Powder, if consumed, kills even a Daluo Golden Immortal within three hours. But the trick is, it has a mutually nullifying relationship with the poison in your bodies."

"So, while Heart-severing Powder is highly toxic, for you now, it is the antidote."

"You can drink it without worry. If anything happens, I'll take full responsibility."

"This..."

Xu Fan's confident assurance dispelled many of the doubts among everyone present.

After looking at each other, their gaze finally turned to Miyamoto Kuro.

It was clear they wanted him to make the decision.

Miyamoto Kuro glanced at Xu Fan, took a deep breath, and said, "Don't worry, everyone! Mr. Xu Fan wouldn't deceive us!"

"This medicine will certainly cure the poison in your bodies!"

"..."

Unexpected, yet Miyamoto Kuro trusted him so much. Xu Fan looked at the pot of medicine already brewed and said, "Alright, the medicine is ready; serve it to everyone."

Upon his command, immediately, the Miyamoto Family members who weren't poisoned took out the medicinal soup from the pot and distributed it, bowl by bowl, to everyone present who was poisoned.

Seeing that everyone had their bowl, Xu Fan squinted, a cunning smile surfacing on his lips, and said, "Remember everyone, you must drink it all in big gulps."
