Brother Quan is such a filial son; he replaced the medicine packet with powdered Ten-Ingredient Tonic Pills.

Si'er was curious when she heard the familiar name.

What does this "Ten-Ingredient Tonic Pill" actually replenish?

In our Beast Continent, the Perfect Tonic Pill is naturally used to replenish energy and stamina, and it can even replenish a little bit of soul power.

[Given the dosage Brother Quan administered, once Lord Quan drinks the medicine, he'll definitely feel incredibly powerful, then rush out of his tent to the front lines and fight non-stop for seven days and seven nights.]

"That's truly filial piety. Many will surely praise Lord Quan for having no airs of a city lord, risking his life to kill the demonic beast."

Quan Shaochuan sighed silently. It seemed his elder brother wasn't planning to make things easy for their father. But it didn't matter; after all, he wouldn't stand for his father's life to be too comfortable.

In Quan Shaochuan's mind, all he needed was for his father to still be able to breathe and kill the demonic beasts. As for anything else, he had no requirements for Lord Quan.

Lord Quan had no idea that his eldest son would betray him. He only knew that his eldest son had switched the medicine his cousin was going to give him, so he took the bowl.

The soup that used to warm his heart every time he saw it was now impossible for him to drink it.

Even though my son has changed the medicine packet, that doesn't mean the soup is safe!

What if my cousin suddenly hates him even more while she's making the soup? What if she adds something else to it?

Lord Quan felt that this was very likely to happen, so he put the soup bowl back on the table.

"Cousin, you can go out first. I have things to do. We'll drink later."

"No, cousin, this is a nourishing soup that I painstakingly simmered for several hours. It's especially good for soul power."

"The more you drink, the stronger you'll become, and the more ferocious beasts you'll kill on the front lines."

Lord Quan: "I know, but..."

"Hey cousin, hurry up and drink it! It'll get cold if you don't, and the effect will be halved. That's not worth it."

Shen Xirou pouted and stomped her feet, displaying the demeanor of a young girl, which gave everyone outside the tent goosebumps.

Quan Shaochuan thought his father had very unusual tastes; how could he like something like that? Although Shen Xirou looked relatively young, she was actually not that young!

Lord Quan, still inside the tent, dared not drink the soup. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Since this soup is so precious, then cousin, drink it with me."

"My cousin's soul power has never been strong, so we can both replenish it together."

Si Er: "..."

Is this city lord really so blunt?

Yes, Lord Quan doesn't speak very pleasantly, so he prefers his younger cousin who speaks very sweetly.

[Aunt Que actually likes people who speak sweetly, so as time went on, and with Lord Quan becoming increasingly fickle, Aunt Que gradually lost her affection for him.]

Shen Xirou, inside the tent, also twitched at the corner of her mouth. Although she had been criticized by Lord Quan many times, she was still very unhappy every time she heard such words.

But thinking of her purpose, she adjusted her expression and continued to coax Lord Quan with gentleness and tenderness, her tone becoming increasingly charming.

Si Er felt goosebumps rising all over his body; he almost wanted to barge into the tent and interrupt the scene. But Que Junya stood blocking the way, listening with rapt attention, acting as a guardian guarding the couple's flirtatious banter inside. (This chapter has been read.
