“He’s poisoned?” The Damask Tulip’s voice sounded in Tang Wulin’s mind.

“Oh? Poisoned?” Tang Wulin asked the Damask Tulip in his mind, “What kind of poison?”

The Damask Tulip replied, “If my senses are correct, it must be the Nightmare Piranha Flower’s poison. It’s a kind of toxin that’s not lethal in itself, but if we don’t administer the antidote, the prey will stay unconscious until death. It’s what the Nightmare Piranha Flower use to catch its prey. It’s ranked seventh among the Ten Great Peculiar Poisons. This person is powerful. He was poisoned for a long time already, yet he’s able to withstand it until just now when he lost his consciousness. This isn’t an easy thing to do. His strength and willpower are shocking.”

“What do we do? Can you give him the antidote?” Tang Wulin knew that the Damask Tulip was most skilled in dealing with poisons.

The Damask Tulip replied haughtily, “I’m ranked first among the Ten Great Immortal Grasses. I’m even called the Immortal Grass King. Although this nightmare fang poison is potent, it’s not difficult to neutralize it. Remove his clothes. The nightmare fang is very troublesome. It can enter a person’s body through the pores. I have to draw the toxins out with my aroma to detoxify him. I can’t do it effectively when there’s a layer of clothes.”

“You’re the best. I’ll remove them,” said Tang Wulin reverently to the Damask Tulip. He then began to remove Lan Fozi’s clothes.

He had just removed his outer clothing when he hesitated. Then, an electric light flickered on his body. It formed an electric net that enveloped Lan Fozi and himself.

A person’s exposed body was both personal and private. The Ten Thousand Beast Platform might very well be under the constant supervision of someone. Since he wanted to help him, he would do it correctly. He decided to cover him from prying eyes.

He removed Lan Fozi’s outer garment, revealing the clothes within. Tang Wulin felt something was off about Lan Fozi. ‘This guy’s skin is quite fair! He doesn’t seem too muscular, though.’

‘Hmm, his chest muscles look okay, they’re puffy, but I can’t say the same for the other parts of his body. There’s no muscle on his arms. This guy’s really...’

Suddenly, Tang Wulin paused.

‘This profile... there’s something odd...’

“What, you’ve only realized it now?” The Damask Tulip’s voice sounded unusual. There was a hint of him reveling in Tang Wulin’s misfortune.

Tang Wulin mumbled, “No way.”

The Damask Tulip said, “Yes way. She’s dressed up as a man. You know the art of disguise too. Didn’t you sense anything off about her aura before this? Didn’t you notice that she always had a faint sweet smell about her?”

Tang Wulin was speechless. “How would I know? I couldn’t get close to her just to get a whiff. Only someone with a sensitive sense of smell such as you will notice it. What should I do now? Can we detoxify her without removing her clothes?”

He never expected Lan Fozi to be a girl. Although he did not have solid evidence, from the looks of her body profile, he could practically confirm it.

The Damask Tulip replied in a tone which clearly suggested he was enjoying Tang Wulin’s awkwardness. “You’re just strangers meeting by chance like two ships passing in the night. You don’t have to save her, right? Let’s forget it. This nightmare fang is very potent, and she’s far gone. If we wait any longer and the poison enters her bone marrow, even I’ll be powerless to do anything then. We can only let her continue sleeping till her death. I’ll leave it to you to decide whether you want to save her or leave her be.”

“Well, can you remove her clothes?” asked Tang Wulin gloomily. ‘Why’s this happening to me? Lan Fozi, oh Lan Fozi. Why’re you, a girl, participating in this Joust For A Spouse Festival? Are you out of your mind?’

The Damask Tulip replied, “I can’t. I’m a male, and it’s inappropriate for me to have undue physical contact with another person of the opposite gender. Moreover, I’ve already merged as one with my lover. We’re hermaphroditic now. We can’t do this.”

Tang Wulin said in exasperation, “If you can’t do it, do you think I can? What’s the rationale behind it?” No matter how well he planned out his strategies, when he was faced with a situation like this, he could not help but feel flustered.

The desperation he felt at the moment was at its peak. Currently, the young girl before him was poisoned by some peculiar toxin. Fortunately, she was not poisoned by the same poison he was afflicted with the last time. Otherwise, things would have been far more complicated.

“Boss, you should hurry,” came the Damask Tulip’s mocking tone.

Tang Wulin said fiercely, “When I was poisoned on Star Luo back then, weren’t you able to detoxify me? You know, using that medicine.”

“I’m not sure. Maybe... Perhaps, it’s possible. But, wasn’t that good for you? When I noticed that something was wrong, I hastily sealed all my six senses. I didn’t take a peek at your glorious body,” the Damask Tulip replied with a chuckle.

The edge of Tang Wulin’s lips twitched. All this while, he had felt the Damask Tulip was the most reliable spirit soul. The Goldsong and the Overlord Dragon were limited in their intellect and not equipped with much wisdom. Now, it seemed that the Damask was not so reliable after all!

Tang Wulin took a deep breath, focused his spirit to gaze within himself, and extended his spiritual power outward. He sensed Lan Fozi’s position with his spiritual power. Tang Wulin quickly went over and removed her clothes. Throughout the entire process, he did his best to avoid contact with her body. However, it was virtually impossible to not touch her body when he had to remove the tight clothes on her body. Her skin was smooth to the touch, and a faint sweet smell filled his nostrils. Although he kept his eyes closed, he was still affected by the circumstances.

Tang Wulin could only recite a mantra in his heart repeatedly, ‘Gu Yuena! Gu Yuena! Gu Yuena!’ After all, when he faced Dai Yun’er back then, he was able to stand his ground and remained calm. He definitely had enough restraint. However, this whole affair was definitely awkward for him.

He finally removed the last of her clothes. Tang Wulin felt sweat trickling down his back. With his cultivation base, it was virtually impossible for him to sweat. However, it was happening to him right now.

“Damask, hurry up!”

“Oh, alright!” This time around, the Damask Tulip did not dawdle. A huge pink flower surfaced above Tang Wulin. It radiated a faint pinkish light which enveloped Lan Fozi’s body.

The Damask Tulip was a peerless Immortal Grass and was called the Fragrance Damask Immortal. His aroma could neutralize poisons and was immune to them also. Under the nourishment of his aura, a layer of tightly-packed, bright red water droplets gradually appeared on Lan Fozi’s translucent skin. A thick, sweet aura arose as well.

“Incredible, she’s taken quite a whiff! She has amazing body qualities. Her body had instinctively protected her internal organs from the nightmare poison. Otherwise, once the poison enters the brain and pollutes the sea of spirit, I won’t be able to do anything about it.”

The Damask Tulip analyzed her condition as he worked to neutralize the poison.

Tang Wulin said, “Can you stop yammering? Be quick about it. Put her clothes back on when you’re done.”

The Damask Tulip fell silent for a moment. Then, he said casually, “Boss, do you still remember how many layers she wore for her breast binder? I doubt you do.”

“...”

Tang Wulin’s lips twitched. ‘Why’re women so troublesome? It was tiring enough to undo it, I’d to move her body about for half a day before I got it all undone. That’s when I touched her body the most.’

“Quit talking nonsense and detox her!”

“I’m almost done, boss. I’ve basically drawn out all the poison from her body. This nightmare poison will naturally evaporate in the air. We’ll only have to wait for a couple of minutes, and it’ll disappear on its own. Hmm, don’t worry. It won’t harm you to inhale it as you have me. You won’t get poisoned.”

Tang Wulin finally relaxed. At least, he would not have to wipe her body down. Otherwise, that would be more awkward. As for the breast binder, he would do his best to put it back on her. He was in no mood to worry over how it was bound initially. He would run away to hide after he dressed her. He could always keep an eye on the situation with his spiritual power. After all, she would not know that it was him who had rescued her. That way, this awkwardness could be avoided.
