Chapter 91 : Poison on Poison
Poison on Poison (Chapter 91)
The valley pond was refreshing, with few plants in sight.
Standing on the shore and gazing at the pond, you can see the breeze gently brushing the surface, creating ripples of waves.
The water was a murky green, not clear enough to reveal what lies beneath.
Overall, it’s a secluded place perfect for relaxation and unwinding.

However, the water in this wilderness was the most dangerous spot, potentially hiding many ferocious, polluted creatures!
Yet, Ye Sheng’s focus wasn’t on the water itself.

Her eyes were fixed on the area near the mountain wall, where several enormous dark lotus flowers floated.
They were so large that Ye Sheng felt even she could sit on one without it sinking!
These were the team’s objective this time, Dark Jade Lotus, a rare ingredient used in concoctions related to the Espers. Extremely valuable!
Thinking of the casualties the convoy had suffered, it was clear that these Dark Jade Lotus had been paid for in human lives...
W ěb̌ n̄оv el Е ṅ u̇ m̆а̃.
If it weren’t for Gu Luoyu protecting her all the way, Ye Sheng doubted she would have survived to see the Dark Jade Lotus with her own eyes.
Alas!
She wondered how the rest of the convoy was faring.
Ye Sheng silently observed the fully bloomed lotus flowers, not allowing herself to dwell in negativity for too long.

She raised her hand and scratched her head in confusion, unsure of how to harvest these Dark Jade Lotus.
There was a considerable distance from the shore to the lotuses.

Would they need to build a small boat to row over?
As Ye Sheng pondered over the lotuses, Gu Luoyu assessed her current strength, only about sixty percent of her usual capacity.
The toxin from the purple-leaf sorrel was indeed potent.
However, if it weren’t for the strong scent of the purple-leaf sorrel combined with the rat attacks, she wouldn’t have been so severely poisoned.
The only way to rid themselves of the toxin was to let time take its course.
But they had sneaked away and reached the pond ahead of the convoy... If they delayed any longer, the others might catch up at any moment.

Gu Luoyu was deeply intrigued by the Dark Jade Lotus and wanted to pick one in advance as a personal collection.
After all, as a raw material for the Espers' Potion, it must have other effects against the Espers.
So, after some thought, she decided to take the risk.
"Ye Sheng, I'm going to pick the lotus flowers. I'll be back soon... Will you be afraid of waiting here alone?"
Before acting, Gu Luoyu glanced sideways at Ye Sheng, her words considerate and gentle.
Ye Sheng shook her head, moved by the concern, and replied, "I'll wait here obediently. But the pond is dangerous, you—"

"Don't underestimate me."
Before Ye Sheng could finish expressing her worry, Gu Luoyu raised her hand and gently ruffled Ye Sheng's hair, her tone brimming with confidence.

Even if her movements were slightly hindered by the poison, picking a flower wouldn’t be too difficult...
With that, Gu Luoyu sprang into action.
She casually snapped a tree branch and tossed it into the water.
Lightly leaping onto the floating wood, she used it as a stepping stone, propelling herself across the water at an astonishing speed!

When she finally came to a stop, she was already near the cliff.
With a swift kick against the mountain wall, she scaled it effortlessly using only her bare hands.
Hanging from a protruding ledge, she found herself directly above the enormous black Dark Jade Lotus lotuses.
The entire sequence of movements was fluid and seamless, leaving Ye Sheng utterly stunned.

This was truly the power of lightness, defying the water's surface!!

It was incredible, wasn’t it?
It seemed to push the limits of the human body, defying gravity itself!!
As Ye Sheng stood in awe, Gu Luoyu scanned her surroundings and spotted a sharp, protruding rock below.
Without hesitation, she released her grip, allowing herself to fall rapidly.
Just before landing, she twisted her body, hooking the rock with her foot.
Now hanging upside down from the cliff, she reached out and grasped one of the massive lotus flowers.

The lotus was enormous, far too large for an ordinary person to hold, but for someone with psychic strength, its weight was negligible... However, as soon as Gu Luoyu touched the lotus petals, she couldn’t help but frown.
The moment her fingers made contact, a strange sensation washed over her, as if countless tiny insects were crawling across her skin, threatening to engulf and devour her entirely.
The nerves in her brain gradually grew chaotic and numb.
Sensing her body beginning to disobey her commands, Gu Luoyu's crimson eyes darkened, but she didn’t let go.
What she wanted, she would not let escape.
With a firm grip, she snapped the stem of the lotus flower and held it in her hand.

Using her formidable core strength, Gu Luoyu performed a pull-up, then punched the mountain wall with her free hand, dislodging a thin, flat stone.
Generally, a stone would sink if thrown into water, but if thrown with enough speed, it could skip across the surface.

Gu Luoyu kicked off the mountain wall to accelerate her descent.
Just before hitting the water, she hurled the stone onto the surface.
As it skipped, she stepped onto it, using the momentary resistance to dash toward the shore in a perilous display of agility.
It was all about leveraging the stone’s momentum.

Before the stone could sink, Gu Luoyu’s slightly weakened body managed to tread water briefly, allowing her to reach the floating wood she had initially thrown into the water.
From there, she made her way back to the shore.
The entire sequence resembled a scene from a sci-fi action movie, leaving Ye Sheng, who had been waiting on the shore, utterly awestruck and ready to applaud.
Any misstep in the process could have sent her plunging into the water... It was a testament to her incredible control over her body, a hallmark of the most powerful Esper in the safe zone!

Of course, it was also a testament to Gu Luoyu’s limited strength she had managed to muster.
Few others could have pulled it off.

As soon as Gu Luoyu reached the shore, dragging the massive lotus flower, she took a few unsteady steps before her body began to sway.
Fortunately, Ye Sheng reacted quickly, rushing forward to catch her before she could collapse.
But Ye Sheng’s strength was limited, and she could only barely help Gu Luoyu sit down.
"Gu Luoyu, what’s wrong? Is it the toxin from the purple-leaf sorrel? Has it not been fully purged?"
Just moments ago, Gu Luoyu had been leaping around with incredible agility, but now she sat on the ground, her face pale and strained.
Ye Sheng felt a surge of panic but managed to steady herself when she saw that Gu Luoyu’s vital signs were stable.

Under Ye Sheng’s worried gaze, Gu Luoyu, now visibly unwell, released the lotus flower from her grasp.
If she hadn’t been certain before, the changes in her body now confirmed the effect Dark Jade Lotus had on those with Psychic abilities.
Simply touching it had slightly alleviated the mental strain she felt.
It reduced the suicidal impulses that often plagued those with powers.
Gu Luoyu immediately understood why the base officials valued Dark Jade Lotus so highly.
If this effect became widely known, it would inevitably attract countless desperate people eager to obtain its power.

For those affected by the psychic powers, it provided a beacon of hope for the future.
Of course, if the base officials were to refine Dark Jade Lotus into a potion, it would also become a tool of control, a leash around the necks of the Espers.

No matter how reluctant, they would have to obey.
No matter how rebellious, they would have to bow to the base’s authority.
But while Dark Jade Lotus had its uses, Gu Luoyu found herself losing interest.
Beyond its mild calming effect on Espers, Dark Jade Lotus had a strong side effect, a paralyzing sensation, but with a subtle difference.

It felt as though her brain had grown sluggish, as if she were drunk.
In comparison, Ye Sheng, with her mysterious and flawed abilities, had a far more effective way of soothing mental strain.
Why bother with Dark Jade Lotus when Ye Sheng’s presence alone was enough?
So, while she had been curious about Dark Jade Lotus, Gu Luoyu now tossed it aside.

She lay on the ground, exhausted, raising a hand to her forehead as she fought off the dizziness in her head.
Combined with the lingering effects of the purple-leaf sorrel toxin, it was a double blow, poison upon poison.

Her body felt like a battlefield, with multiple hostile forces clashing within.
It was like a poison that ignited desire.
Her blood felt as though it were on fire.
Her entire body burned with unbearable heat, and even her breath came out scorching.
As she lowered her hand, her crimson eyes, now clouded and dark, met Ye Sheng’s concerned gaze beside her.
