Chapter 49 049 I hate that she's blind.

The next day, Jiang Yan got up and checked Ling Yue and Lin Yun's internal energy. Lin Yun's health increased by 0.5 points overnight, and he now has a health of 39.5%.

As for Ling Yue, his health level should also have fluctuated, but Jiang Yan is unaware of this because the system space does not display his health status.

Not long after breakfast, Steward Wang from the Li family came looking for them.

“Miss Jiang, the young master has agreed to let you refine those herbs, but there is one condition.”

Jiang Yan raised an eyebrow slightly: "He's the one who needs something from others, yet he has the nerve to make demands?"

Butler Wang's face showed a hint of embarrassment: "Young Master didn't mean anything by it. He just hopes that Miss Jiang can stay in the manor, so that it will help us select medicinal herbs for you."

Jiang Yan thought for a moment and agreed.

After all, those three medicinal herbs were too precious, so it's understandable that Li Shu didn't dare to completely trust her.

The Li family was in the medicinal herb business, so this saved her the trouble of finding other medicinal herbs she needed.

After receiving a satisfactory answer, Butler Wang bid farewell to Jiang Yan and left, saying that he would send someone to pick them up later.

After seeing the person off, Jiang Yan put all the items into her treasure bag.

Lin Yun slapped his tail on the bag opening and frowned as he asked, "Do we really have to stay at the Li residence?"

The thought of living in her former lover's house made him feel awkward, and he always felt that Li Shu had ill intentions.

Jiang Yan raised her hand to brush his tail away, but to her surprise, he wrapped it around her wrist...

She frowned, looking at the bluish-green mosaic: "Are you still going to refine that pill? Do you still want to transform into human form as soon as possible?"

Lin Yun retorted, "We can find medicine elsewhere; we don't necessarily have to use his stuff."

Jiang Yan grabbed him by the waist and lifted him up in front of her eyes: "Then where should we look? How long will it take to find him?"

Lin Yun struggled to refute, "We can always find one."

Jiang Yan sighed and said, "Don't forget, we signed an agreement that we must transform and break the contract within three months at the latest, otherwise we will have to pay compensation!"

Lin Yun blinked his snake-like eyes and muttered under his breath, "I'm not short of that little bit of money..."

Jiang Yan frowned and tapped his snake head, her expression serious. "You can't have this kind of thinking! You must transform into human form as soon as possible!!! Otherwise, I'll..."

Lin Yun's snake-like eyes lit up: "So what? You're going to cling to me...?"

Before he could finish speaking, Jiang Yan smiled and narrowed her eyes: "I'll sell you off to snake dealers for a pittance, rip out their hearts, and skin them alive!"

"you!!!"

The little snake, annoyed, struggled free from her palm and slithered away in a flash.

Jiang Yan stared at his retreating figure and smiled with satisfaction: "Scared now? If you're scared, then hurry up and transform into human form!"

Lin Yun turned her head and glared at her angrily, hissing and spitting his tongue at her, hating her for being blind!

After the servants from the Li family arrived, Jiang Yan took 'Gongsun Jin' and the few mosaic figures with her to the Li residence.

Coal Ball shrunk itself several sizes, perched on Jiang Yan's shoulder, nodding and swaying its head, humming incessantly. Jiang Yan sometimes wondered if it was a parrot...

Ling Yue glanced at it with a hint of envy, then resignedly hopped around on the ground...

Shen Yuchen also walked along at a brisk pace.

Xiao Bai and Dongfang Chen crawled on the ground.

Lin Yun wrapped his arms around Feng Qingyu's shoulder and said, "She's always breaking the bond, but once she leaves me, she'll realize just how hard it is to find a Daoist partner as outstanding as me!"

Feng Qingyu glanced at the person beside her and raised an eyebrow slightly: "What did you say when you signed the contract? You regretted it so quickly? This is not like the style of a successor of Medicine King Valley."

"Who said I regretted it! What do I have to regret... It's not like I can't afford that little bit of compensation."

Feng Qingyu turned her head and stared at him intently, then said slowly, "Unfortunately, we cannot coexist; it's either me or you."

"Who wants to coexist with you? Dream on!"

The next instant, Feng Qingyu flicked the small snake off her shoulder.

Lin Yun landed unexpectedly on the head of Dongfang Chen's large black dragon. Dongfang Chen was startled, and after smelling the familiar snake scent, he immediately frowned in disgust.

Just as he was about to shake the lump off his head, Lin Yun darted out and landed on Jiang Yan's shoulder.

Lingyue and Xiaobai on the ground frowned as they looked at the shameless Lin Yun, their eyes filled with obvious disdain.

Lin Yun raised an eyebrow and glared back at him.

Coal Ball was already curled up asleep on the other side. Last night, it had been fighting with the green snake for territory and stayed up most of the night. This time, it was really too tired to continue sleeping.

Jiang Yan raised her hand and touched it, then smiled and said, "Little Bai, you're here?"

Lin Yun frowned, a sudden surge of anger rising within him. She didn't even glance at him, just kept yelling. Did she think he didn't exist at all, only seeing that little white snake?!

He hunched over and came up to her, startling Jiang Yan. As she turned slightly to the side, Lin Yun deliberately flicked his tongue and leaned closer to scare her.

Somehow, his slender tongue touched her chin.

The snake's body froze as if electrocuted. It hurriedly and quickly retracted its tongue, the delicate touch still lingering on its tip...

Jiang Yan felt a tickle on her chin, but didn't realize what was happening.

She subconsciously reached up and touched her chin, frowning and scolding helplessly, "You're the most mischievous snake. Stay put, or if you dare to scare me again, I'll give you realgar powder!"

Lin Yun blushed and obediently said "Oh" for once. Then she coiled her body even tighter, pressed her head against it, and stared at her profile with her jewel-like snake eyes.

When his gaze swept across her chin, his serpentine body involuntarily froze. He had almost... almost... just a hair's breadth away.

Instantly, the snake's heart inside his chest began to pound wildly again...

Feng Qingyu, standing behind him, had already taken in all the snake's little movements. His deep eyes gazed at the little snake, whose heart was fluttering with desire.

Some calamities are indeed destined to be unavoidable.

Jiang Yan and the others followed the servant into the Li residence. Steward Wang first led them to their room, and after they put their things down, he called Jiang Yan to go to the Li family pharmacy.

The overwhelming aroma of herbs was enough to startle anyone. Those of higher rank could easily tell that many rare medicinal herbs were hidden within.

Butler Li pushed open a hidden door and said respectfully, "Young Master is waiting for you inside. Please go in by yourself, Miss Jiang."

As soon as Jiang Yan lifted her leg to go inside, the door closed automatically.

The few animals squatting outside couldn't help but frown.

Lin Yun said bluntly, "Why does getting medicine have to be so mysterious?"

Butler Wang explained, "The Li family's important medicinal herbs are kept in the hidden compartment, and ordinary people are not allowed to enter at will."

Lin Yun stiffened his neck, wanting to say something, but ultimately remained silent.

He saw that Li Shu's real intention in seeking Jiang Yan to refine elixirs was not to rekindle their old flame!
