Mu Hanyan nearly went mad as she tried to drive the poison out of her body with her Qi. She knew that the poison chosen by Zong Dingfang was no ordinary toxin, and her current strength might not be sufficient to expel it. In fact, she felt the potency of the poison; in the few moments since she had been injured, her shoulder had become completely numb, as if her arm had been severed. Her legs felt as heavy as if they were filled with lead, and her head spun with dizziness.
However, no matter how fierce the poison was, she had to try, even if there was only a sliver of a chance, she would not surrender without a fight.
Suddenly, Mu Hanyan froze. The poison did not behave as she had hoped; instead of being suppressed in one area, it flowed through her meridians as the Heavenly Heart Technique circulated, and following the Qi through a small cycle, it reached the Heart Meridian.
