At that moment, Darryl still did not know that Stella used to be a gorgeous woman. She only turned ugly due to the poison.
As he thought about that, Darryl asked, “Has this lady been poisoned?”
“Yes!” Eric nodded; his eyes were filled with heartache and helplessness.
He was the Ice Fire Island’s Sect Master and someone at the Heaven Ascension level, yet he could not save his beloved daughter. It was the most ironic thing.
Darryl smiled and continued to say, “If I guess correctly, she was poisoned by the Corpse Flower, right?” Then, Darryl took a closer look at Stella’s situation.
The Corpse Flower was an extremely poisonous plant. It grew at places where evil spirits converged. It specifically absorbed nutrients from corpses, hence its name.
The Infinite Elixir Manual mentioned the poison would gather its victim’s energy field to quicken their death. An ordinary person would have died on the spot, but cultivators could survive for less than ten days.
That was what had happened to Stella.
“How did you know?” Eric was extremely shocked when he heard what Darryl said.
Stella and her four senior brothers also looked at Darryl.
Especially Stella! Her eyes were full of deep admiration; no wonder he was her idol! He could immediately guess what had happened to her!
Darryl smiled. “Of course. Not only that, but I can also refine the antidote.” He had been furious when they took him against his will; he would not have helped them.
However, he could also feel Stella’s kindness; he could not bear to watch her die.
“Do you mean that?” Eric was stunned; then he asked urgently, “How do you make the antidote?”
