When logging into the game, Heavenly Dao binds everyone's identity information, including ID cards and bank cards. This allows players to transfer money directly to each other without any restrictions.
When Yang Yu saw that long string of "0s," his heart couldn't help but tremble! Even before he got sick, his family couldn't come up with that much money at once. His bank card had never had such a large balance!
And now, just a small vial of blood, calculated at Yang Yu's current rate of one point of health recovery every two seconds, even without drinking a healing potion, it would only take a little over three minutes to fully recover.
This meant that Yang Yu had created a value of 500,000 in just three minutes!
Although this was a special situation, encountering top-tier wealthy women like Yue Yao and Yue Ying, Yang Yu believed that as long as he continued to improve his strength, such collaborations would continue to flow!
On the other side, after Yue Yao received the "potion," she took out two slender-neck jade vials and carefully divided it into two portions. She gave the larger portion to her sister Yue Ying and kept the smaller portion for herself.
She thought for a moment, put away her staff, and drew the novice short blade from her bag. Yue Ying, on the other hand, continued to use her dagger.
Yang Yu glanced over and noticed that the staff and dagger in Yue Yao and Yue Ying's hands were not the novice equipment given by the system. It was unclear whether they had drawn these items themselves or if they were contributions from their guild. Of course, it was also possible that they had gotten lucky and obtained them by killing monsters above their level, but that possibility was very low. After all, the drop rate in Heavenly Dao was extremely low, and monsters below level 3 almost never dropped any equipment. So even Yang Yu only had the novice equipment given by the system.
After some thought, Yang Yu didn't leave immediately. On one hand, he wanted to see the combat strength of these sisters, who were famous in his past life. On the other hand, he was considering after-sales issues. After all, he had received 500,000 from them, and if they didn't handle the dosage well when applying poison, he might have to bleed a little more.
Additionally, Yang Yu had a hypothesis he wanted to test. He could absorb the toxins of creatures, so if a person was poisoned, could he also absorb the toxins to rid them of the poisoning effect?
Yang Yu was uncertain. After all, he was immune to all poisons and couldn't experiment on himself.
While Yang Yu was lost in thought, the sisters couldn't wait to test the "potion's" effects. One sister was in the open, the other in the shadows. Yue Yao wielded the novice short blade, continuously hacking at tree trunks, creating "thud thud" sounds to attract nearby Silver Ring Snakes. Yue Ying stood guard by her sister's side. As soon as a Silver Ring Snake appeared, she struck swiftly!
"-48"
"-129"
"-129..."
No one could be seen, but the Silver Ring Snake not far from Yue Yao quickly turned a bluish-green hue, and its speed rapidly declined! Yue Yao gracefully sidestepped the dying attack of the Silver Ring Snake. Five seconds later, the Silver Ring Snake fell to the ground, lifeless!
"Wow!" A clear, excited voice echoed in the air, yet no one was visible. What surprised Yang Yu was Yue Ying's attack power! Yang Yu's current attack power could only inflict 16 points of damage on a Silver Ring Snake with one strike, but Yue Ying's strike dealt 48 points of damage, a full 32 points higher than Yang Yu's, three times his own!
"It seems the rumors about Yue Ying's attack power doubling while in stealth are true. No wonder she can make enemy players afraid to log in."
Seeing this, Yue Yao was also overjoyed. She tapped the tree trunk with her foot while taking out the jade vial to poison her novice short blade. Although she was skilled in the mage profession, her close combat abilities far surpassed those of ordinary players.
"Sister, leave this one to me!" Yue Yao said, and with that, she slashed at the snake's body!
"-18"
"-129"
"-129..."
Although Yue Yao's physical attack power was far inferior to her sister Yue Ying's, it was still two points higher than Yang Yu, the archer! This made Yang Yu click his tongue in wonder and fall into contemplation.
After a moment, Yang Yu figured out the key. Yang Yu had allocated all his points to agility because he didn't lack damage and had never put free attributes into strength. Yue Yao, preparing to follow the mage path, naturally wouldn't allocate points to strength either. Yet her physical attack was two points higher than Yang Yu's, which could only mean that Yue Yao's initial strength attribute was higher than Yang Yu's.

Realizing this, Yang Yu felt a bit rueful but also relieved. Being terminally ill, having less initial strength than a girl didn't seem shameful. It also indicated that Yue Yao's powerful talent, which deducted health proportionally, only amplified her spell attacks and was ineffective on physical attacks.
While Yang Yu was filled with emotions, the two sisters had already gone on a killing spree. They took turns poisoning and attacking every new Silver Ring Snake that appeared. Once a Silver Ring Snake was attacked, its speed immediately decreased, posing no further threat to the sisters. However, they remained cautious, fearing that too many Silver Ring Snakes might appear at once. It wasn't that their attack speed couldn't keep up, but rather the poisoning speed couldn't keep up! After each attack, they had to immediately reapply poison. The "potion" Yang Yu provided was very limited, and if they used too much in one strike, they might not be able to reach their goal of a hundred kills. This made them cautious and slowed down their poisoning process.
"Sister, watch out!"
"-12"
"-10"
"-10..."
Finally, during the continuous luring of monsters, an unexpected situation arose. Five Silver Ring Snakes appeared simultaneously around the sisters! After each sister poisoned and killed one Silver Ring Snake, they were left dodging the attacks of the remaining three, unable to find time to reapply poison. They could only rely on regular attacks to engage in close combat with the three Silver Ring Snakes. The Silver Ring Snakes had a health pool of 600, and even though Yue Ying could inflict 48 points of damage with one strike, without slowing the Silver Ring Snakes down, it would take some time to kill them.
During this process, coincidentally, two more Silver Ring Snakes arrived! Faced with five Silver Ring Snakes at full speed, the sisters found themselves in a perilous situation. Yue Yao, surrounded by three Silver Ring Snakes, couldn't dodge in time and was bitten by one of them. Not only did it take 12 points of her health, but she was also poisoned, losing health at a rate of 10 points per second!
While dodging the subsequent attacks of the Silver Ring Snakes, Yue Yao quickly took out a Beginner Healing Potion and drank it. The Beginner Healing Potion could restore 3 points of health per second, also lasting 10 seconds. As a result, after the Silver Ring Snake's poison effect wore off, Yue Yao lost a total of 82 health points, which was still within a bearable range. Yang Yu estimated that Yue Yao should have about half of her health left. This suggested that Yue Yao's health pool wasn't high, only around 160.
"-12"
"-10"
"-10..."
A few seconds later, Yue Yao was hit again! The Beginner Healing Potion had a one-minute cooldown. At this point, she had no means of regaining health! When they first hunted Silver Ring Snakes, Yue Ying almost died because of this situation. However, Yue Ying's health was 20 points higher than her sister's, and the interval between the two poisonings was longer, over fifty seconds apart. Almost perfectly timing the cooldown, Yue Ying managed to survive by quickly consuming two Beginner Healing Potions!
But Yue Yao's situation now clearly couldn't hold out until the healing potion's cooldown was over.
"Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!"
"-16"
"-99..."
"-16"
"-99..."
In a flash, Yang Yu acted. He fired three arrows simultaneously, hitting three Silver Ring Snakes! The speed of the three Silver Ring Snakes drastically reduced. Yang Yu rushed into the battlefield, grabbed Yue Yao with his right hand, and swiftly withdrew from the encirclement of the Silver Ring Snakes, leaving Yue Ying, still in stealth, to continue battling the Silver Ring Snakes.
As Yang Yu's blood surged, a suction force suddenly emanated from his right hand holding Yue Yao, and a strange energy flowed from Yue Yao's arm into Yang Yu's palm...
Moments later, Yue Yao's continuous bleeding status miraculously disappeared!
"Ding!"
"Reminder: You have successfully absorbed a trace of level 3 Silver Ring Snake toxin, but the amount is insufficient to enhance your Bloodfiend Poison Body!"
"It really works!" This chapter was copied from g.com without permission.
Holding Yue Yao's wrist, Yang Yu carefully sensed the state just now. This feeling was different from absorbing toxins from creatures. When absorbing toxins from creatures, he absorbed both the toxins and the life force from the organism. But just now, under Yang Yu's deliberate control, he only absorbed the Silver Ring Snake toxin from Yue Yao's body without taking her life force.
"Ding!"
"Congratulations on successfully killing a level 3 Silver Ring Snake..."
At the same time, Yang Yu received a notification of the death of the three Silver Ring Snakes he had just shot. His experience points reached level 3 (495/750). The poison damage increased by another 3 points, becoming 132 points per second.
"Tha... thank you, Kuangge..."
Hearing the voice, Yang Yu snapped back to reality. Seeing Yue Yao's slightly flustered yet stunning face, Yang Yu quickly released her wrist.
"No need to thank me, consider it after-sales service for selling you the potion. Also, I just killed three Silver Ring Snakes to save you, so those three Silver Ring Snake corpses should be mine, right?"
"Yes, yes, of course, no problem!"
Yue Yao nodded repeatedly, her thoughts a bit jumbled, momentarily unsure of what to say. She even forgot to ask about the miraculous method Yang Yu used to remove the toxin from her body.
The two suddenly fell silent. Meanwhile, not far away, Yue Ying was about to go crazy.
"Hey! Sister, are you going to leave me to die? Come save me!"
"Oh, coming, coming..."
Yue Yao quickly snapped back to her senses. She hurriedly poisoned her short blade and ran towards Yue Ying.
"Oh no, I spilled too much potion..."
In her haste, Yue Yao used as much as she had in three or four previous applications. But there was no time to worry about wasting the "potion" as she rushed forward to help her sister.
After a frantic struggle, the two finally killed all the Silver Ring Snakes around them. They were left with lingering fear and dared not continue luring monsters. After a brief rest, they began to clean up the battlefield. The battle had lasted only five minutes, but they had killed 46 Silver Ring Snakes! Averaging nearly 10 Silver Ring Snakes per minute, even with their strength and experience, they couldn't help but be amazed.
"Kuangge, these are the three Silver Ring Snakes you just killed. This group of Silver Ring Snakes also dropped 8 bottles of Beginner Healing Potion and 17 copper coins, which are all yours."
"Thank you for your help earlier, I'll remember it..."
By the end, Yue Yao's voice grew softer. Yang Yu didn't mind and accepted all the items Yue Yao handed over. Having such a wealthy woman owe him a favor was certainly not a bad thing.
Yue Ying, who had been in stealth, now revealed herself and patted Yang Yu on the shoulder, saying, "Skinny Pole, thanks for saving my sister earlier. Your potion is really useful, but there's too little of it."
"I panicked and used too much just now. Can you sell me another bottle? I'll pay the same 500,000!"
Yang Yu instantly saw through Yue Ying's intentions and shook his head, "The raw materials for the potion are used up, I can't make more right now."
"Hmph!"
"When my sister buys it, there's some, but when I want to buy it, there's none. That's not fair!"
