Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

"She wasn't poisoned like that old man," William slowly said, while putting Sara's weak body over a bed in the room he just entered, "besides, she was her mother. I hardly believe she'll do something bad to her own child."

"She is cruel, look at what she did to us!" Ro blurted out, but William simply smiled while caressing Sara's face.

"At least she let you live," he paused, "anyone else would have killed you instead, right?"

"..."

"Stay with her," he moved outside the room, "when she wakes up, make sure she won't leave."

William knew this was by far an easy meeting for Sara. He wasn't there when that happened, and he asked but no one had any recollection of what happened between Sara and her mother.

But something told William this wasn't an easy meeting. Going by Sara he knew she wasn't the type to take things lightly, and she might have said lots of things to her mother to let the latter knock her off consciousness.

If she was tied by ropes or a technique, then this wouldn't look as bizarre as finding her losing consciousness.

"Seeing a mother who she didn't see for ages come back must have been a great and shocking moment for her, and arguing with her about me must have been hard… Tsk!"

William couldn't tell how bad Sara's mental status would be after waking up, but he could expect the worst. He knew Sara wouldn't leave, or she'd have left a long time ago with her mother.

"It's weird that she didn't try to take her back there by force, Sara was asleep, what prevented her from doing that?"

William was feeling puzzled about this. Even if Sara didn't like going to the outer world with her mother, it made zero sense to wait for William to come and argue with him.

Something told William that there was some sort of limitation over Sara's mother, or something else he didn't know. It was as if Sara must come willingly to the outer world, or else nothing would work later on.

"Oh, you came back fast," as William appeared from the corridor he left through a few minutes ago, Fang looked at him in a weak way, while speaking in a tone full of mockery.

It wasn't that he didn't want to chase after him, but he couldn't. He was way too fragile right now to even stand. So with the help of boys, he laid on the couch, waiting helplessly for William to come back.

"If you don't manage that temper and tone of yours, I may leave you to handle this on your own," William threatened this, while rolling his eyes. And yet what Fang said distracted his thoughts away from Sara's mother's weird actions.

"I won't," Fang had no power to jump on fright, but his pale face told William how scared he was, "please tell me you know how to deal with this."

"This is… A very tricky poison to deal with," William took in a deep breath, before telling bits of pieces of what he knew to Fang.

The terms of Yin and Yang were very new to everyone in the hall, including Fang. The more the latter listened, the more he felt desperate.

"Are you telling me there is no way for me to heal?!!" Fang said it as if he accepted his demise. But William's bright smile made him feel little hope inside.

"Not in my presence of course," William paused before adding with a mischievous smile, "worst case scenario we won't be able to fully heal you until we go to the outer world."

"Do you expect me to survive till then? I won't survive the night!!" Fang's calmness and relief vanished the moment he heard what William just said.

"I'll do something to delay its effects," William rolled his eyes again, "so stay put, and let me work."

Fang watched William take out his alchemy pot, tons of herbs that filled almost half of the hall, before he started working.

William knew he wouldn't be able to make a cure using these herbs. But first he needed to know which worked and which wouldn't. So he picked one random Yang potion recipe, and started testing the herbs he took out.

The herbs he brought out of his storage rings were all famous for their fire element. He wanted to see if fire was a lower element for Yang in this world or not. And unfortunately these herbs didn't work at all!

"Damn! The entire fire based herbs I took out didn't do it…" William's face was now stained black from all the failures he suffered so far. With every failure, a small bang would happen, followed by a pillow of black smoke that painted his face.

Fang watched all this from the side, while feeling panicked and yet didn't say a single word. He knew William was trying his best, and he wasn't slacking. So anything he'd say wouldn't help at all.

Instead he was far curious to know how this Yang related to the fire element. "Why are you only using fire based herbs?" After hours of watching William fail, Fang couldn't help but open his mouth. William just took another batch of fire based herbs to use in his tests.

"Yang is special by hotness," William explained, "and Yin is cold. So…"

"You are trying to imitate that element's effect using fire? No, that won't work," out of the blue, and if he knew what he was talking about, Fang shook his head as he added in some sort of overconfident tone, "fire is basic element, you are speaking about a mutant element then, so you need mutant element as well from fire."

"What do you know?" William felt irritated from what Fang said. In fact he also thought about this point before, but he lacked any mutant herbs, so he had to use fire for now.

"Here, this ring has many lava based herbs."
