"Don't come any closer," he whispered, backing away without daring to lift his head.

The limp became even more noticeable in the chaos.

"Why are you panicking? What I mean is, I can heal your leg, but not here," Qi Yue said calmly, her eyes fixed intently on Mu Linghan's lowered head.

Under the sunlight, Mu Linghan shuddered, looking up at Qiyue with excitement yet slight hesitation, and asked cautiously, "Are you serious? Can you really cure my leg? You're not lying to me?"

After asking him three anxious questions, Qiyue looked at him calmly and said, "The reason I was able to heal your leg is because I know a method and have a certain kind of elixir."

"What method? Can you tell me?" Mu Linghan asked cautiously, his deep black eyes filled with curiosity.

Qi Yue raised her eyes: "Bone resetting and muscle regeneration pills."

"Your leg isn't completely necrotic, but it's not much better either. There's no other way but to take an unconventional approach. However, I'm about 80% confident..."

"Okay!" Mu Linghan agreed eagerly before Qiyue could finish speaking.

Qiyue was very satisfied with this and chose Wanbaolou as the location for Mu Linghan's leg treatment.

Resetting a broken bone is extremely painful, but in order to have a complete and healthy body, Mu Linghan endured it without uttering a sound. Qi Yue admired him greatly for this, because breaking a leg and then resetting it without anesthesia is no less painful than being run over by a car.

However, the effect was very good. With the help of the Muscle Regeneration Pill, other healing medicines, and the Spirit Gathering Array, Mu Linghan could feel obvious changes.

Three days later.

Feeling his leg completely intact, he was incredibly excited.

He knelt before Qiyue, as devout as a believer, and swore that he would do anything for her.

Qi Yue smiled mysteriously, "Providing help in times of need is indeed better than adding flowers to brocade."

She opened the door to the secret room, looked at the communication token that had rang many times, and went out. Jin Linshu was waiting anxiously outside.

Upon seeing her come out, he immediately went to greet her.

"Owner……".

"See Young Master Mu out. Also, bring the Flower Fairy to see me." Qi Yue said with a smile to Jin Linshu as she walked forward.

Jin Linshu was taken aback. He thought the communication token was broken, but he didn't expect...

With a hostile look, Jin Linshu saw Mu Linghan off, then pursed his lips as he watched the departing figure.

Tch, he's obviously not good enough. No one's owner would like a brat like that.

He muttered to himself, but he forgot the fact that he was about the same age as Mu Linghan.

Mu Linghan wasn't much better off. Although he hadn't had much contact with Jin Linshu, the latter was very hostile towards him, and there was that kind of attitude between them.

"Pretty boy!"

Gritting his teeth, Mu Linghan turned around and glared at the direction of Wanbaolou. Displeasure flashed in his eyes. He patted the corner of his clothes that Jin Linshu had accidentally touched with disgust, as if he wanted to tear it to shreds.

Wanbaolou.

After only a slight hesitation, Jin Linshu brought the flower fairy to Qiyue.

Looking at the woman in front of her, with her red lips, white teeth, and two dimples on her peach-like face, smiling sweetly and innocently, the flower fairy frowned, somewhat disbelieving, but dared not show the slightest disrespect or negligence.

After all, there have been too many powerful beings who have possessed bodies and been reborn or disguised themselves since ancient times. The only way to ensure safety is to be cautious.

"This humble demon greets senior."

"I wonder if Miss Yuanji has brought what I want?" Qiyue smiled calmly.

Yuan Ji's beautiful eyes flickered slightly. Sure enough, he was an old man.

Handing over a letter and a spatial ring, Yuan Ji said with a fawning expression, "The Demon King instructed me to make sure these two items reach you, Senior."

Qiyue accepted it without hesitation. Inside the ring were many rare spiritual herbs, demon bones, demon cores, and medicinal blood, as well as many spirit stones and other items, too numerous to count.

Qiyue didn't even need to open the letter to guess that it must contain the Demon King's apologies and promises to discipline his daughter.

Upon opening it, it was indeed there.

After turning the letter into dust, Qiyue handed the remaining yellowed page to Yuanji.

"A wise man submits to circumstances. Yuan Ji, I want you to start today to reveal Ling Qing'er's whereabouts to me. If you do it well, you will be rewarded handsomely."

As she spoke, Qiyue tossed a bottle of pills to Yuanji, who opened it and was overjoyed.

"Rest assured, Master, I will certainly live up to your expectations."

Qiyue smiled with satisfaction, tossed a token for delivering messages to Yuanji, and looked at Jinlinshu beside her.

"Linshu, see Miss Yuan out."

"yes."

The two figures quickly disappeared from sight, and Qiyue got up and stretched.

"Ah~ I'm exhausted these past two days. I wonder where that little Nine-Tailed Fox has gone off to have some fun. It hasn't come back yet..."

Muttering to herself, Qiyue sat on the windowsill, watching the bustling street, a hint of melancholy in her eyes.

If her spiritual root had never been dug out, and her master, senior sisters, and senior brothers hadn't been villains, how wonderful that would have been! Then she wouldn't have had to go through all this trouble to plan these things...

Unfortunately, there are no "what ifs".

After a slight sigh, Qiyue waited for the Nine-Tailed Fox at Wanbaolou for a day. When the little guy returned, she no longer spoiled it as before and immediately signed a contract, making it her spirit beast.

Nine-Tailed Fox didn't seem to care much about this, since it was originally her spirit beast.

Before leaving, Qiyue gave Jin Shang and his son a message, asking them to keep an eye on the news about the alchemy guild's alchemy fire.

Returning to the Xunhui sect.

Qiyue entrusted her communication token to Le Luoxi for safekeeping, instructing her to inform her if there was any news of the Dan Fire, and then began her seclusion to seek a breakthrough.
