The Demon Swordsman 2
Ch. 30 - Destroying Spell
Slightly worried that the time was no longer for Xin Chen to accelerate, he suddenly deflected the direction of entering a narrow alley.
The five men were forced to stop running, search each other in the narrow alley and could find no one there except for a dead end.
"That kid... Where the hell did it go? Did I see wrong?" muttered one of them with a confused face, he kicked the trash can out there and still found no one.
"So you think we all saw it wrong?"
They were confused, whereas in the room adjacent to the alley Xin Chen had managed to get in there. Laugh giggling while sounding ghostly voices.
The five people were silent for quite a while when they heard a strange voice across, choosing not to take care of it anymore they immediately returned to the vigil.
Xin Chen heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Shen Xuemei had been standing where they had promised before. The man greeted him with pleasure.
"You're just worrying me." Just that coming out of Shen Xuemei's mouth, he was worried that Xin Chen was instead caught by the five people. He alone had to be pressed several times when faced with five great warriors at once.
"What matters is that we both survive, Uncle, may I ask you for something?"
"Of course I'll help you. You helped me out."
Xin Chen smiled slightly, "You can neutralize the poison as well as curse no?"
"Curse?" the Shen Xuemei.
"Yes, I need an antidote to the Fire Cobra poison, Zhan Gege was exposed to that poison for saving me."
Shen Xuemei was trying to understand this somewhat dire situation, he told Xin Chen to chat in the teahouse for a while while thinking about the right path to the matter.
"You said tomorrow was his last day, didn't you?" Shen Xuemei spoke up after ten minutes of silence.
"Yes, that's it. Do you have a solution?"
Shen Xuemei's shoulders dropped, Xin Chen guessed that the man was not even able to say anything to simply make her relieved.
"For the poison I may be able to help, but the curse... It takes a special tool to destroy it."
Xin Chen held both hands together on the table, his head bowed above his. "Please tell me if you have a solution, even if it's impossible, I'll try my best. My brother's life is threatened there.."
"Didn't your father look for an antidote?"
"Dad must have looked for him, even made his own antidote for Zhan Gege. But these poisons and curses can't be removed that easily."
Shen Xuemei put on her sad face, patting Xin Chen on the shoulder. "Then you must obtain the Destruction Spell, but as far as I am concerned, that spell only exists in the Qing Empire."
Xin Chen raised his head so quickly, making Shen Xuemei flustered.
On the other hand Xin Chen felt like he had seen an object inscribed with this Destruction Spell, his eyes opened wide by a split second.
He took out one of the nine heirlooms he had obtained earlier.
"This Destroyer's spell?" tanyanya.

The journey back home was actually faster than expected, even until the night before they did not stop running to get home to treat Xin Zhan.
Over the past seven days Xin Chen had been able to feel the development within himself, he was easier to catch while taking on the situation, his running speed had increased tremendously if he was in a state that required him to move quickly.
To increase his stamina in order to reach Xin Chen's house sometimes took some pills that were useful to increase his inner circle. Xin Chen just realized, out of all the treasures he had managed to take, that kind of pill was only two pieces.
As his own pace began to slow down, Shen Xuemei repeatedly offered to carry him but Xin Chen refused. Aside from not wanting to bother, Xin Chen was also embarrassed to be carried around like a child. At his age he is still young.
"Looks like you're tired, then we'll rest first." Shen Xuemei caught it clear from her eyes that Xin Chen really should rest, otherwise she would faint in a moment.
"But Uncle... I don't want it to be my fault anymore Zhan Gege will be wretched." Xin Chen propped both his hands on his feet, wiping away his sweat that started to drip.
"You sure you can still walk?" Shen Xuemei made sure once again, it was not long before it sounded like she was breathing heavily.
"Take it." The man took out a power-enhancing pill, knowing what pill was being proffered to him Xin Chen refused.
"I can't take it, Uncle. The price of the pill is very expensive."
"Don't worry, you need him the most at the moment anyway" Shen Xuemei rebutted thrusting her hand once more. Waiting for Xin Chen to welcome him.
Xin Chen was silent for a long time, he shook his head unwillingly. The child actually took out another pill from the space ring. Due to his meager knowledge, Xin Chen did not recognize the few pills he had brought. One of them was the pill in his hand.
Due to smelling the scent of the herbs from the yellow-colored pill, Xin Chen immediately put it in his mouth. It made Shen Xuemei's forehead fold.
"What pill did you just eat?"
Xin Chen tilted his head in confusion, thinking for a bit long. "I think this pill has the power to restore my energy."
Shen Xuemei brought her face closer, smelling the extremely strong scent of the pill. He realized the pills Xin Chen was eating were very special. Xin Chen's body aura was instantly different, something had changed within him.
Xin Chen realized his bones were starting to feel strange, even his internal organs were causing the same reaction. It's hard to explain. The boy squatted down so Shen Xuemei was also worried about his condition.
"You why?"
"My body... Arghh!" Xin Chen spewed out fresh blood, he grimaced in incomprehensible pain at which part of his body was injured. But everything was burning, like being torn from the inside, and the oxygen that could enter his lungs began to gradually decrease.
Xin Chen had almost fainted if Shen Xuemei did not help with his healing science, the man laid Xin Chen's body to treat, researching what was wrong with the pill earlier.
"Chen, where did you get those pills?"
Xin Chen shook his head softly, "From the Silver Pagoda Association and the shop in the Valley of the Gods... I don't think there's any poison in it."
Shen Xuemei fell silent, slightly correcting Xin Chen's words. "This is not a poison, this is indeed an herbal pill but there is something special about this pill. Do you feel something different in your body?"
Xin Chen blinked his eyes, feeling the effects of the pill had started to disappear slowly. He sat his body. Take a deep breath. Suddenly his eyes opened wide.
"What's going on?"
