That's a good idea.

Or perhaps… Xiao Qingyin's mind flashed with Song Qingshan's image, but she quickly dismissed it.

Given Song Qingshan's character, he wouldn't be so ungrateful as to abandon someone after they've served their purpose.

"Let Zhao Xu handle this matter."

Yi Shuihan interrupted her reverie.

Xiao Qingyin thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

Anyway, Yun Zhao is cured, and they have obtained the Heavenly Pearl, so they can leave. Zhao Xu can also go back to be his heir.

Upon hearing this news, Zhao Xu's shoulders slumped.

"Are you all going to abandon me like this? I don't want to go! Waaaaah—"

Without this group of people, he wouldn't be able to enjoy those top-notch delicacies.

How boring life will be from now on.

Yi Shuihan said expressionlessly, "If you want to come back to Nandan with us to work as a quarry worker, that's not impossible."

Quarry workers?!

Zhao Xu immediately regained his senses.

"Well, all good things must come to an end. I wish you all the best for the future, and I'll miss you."

He used the potion Xiao Qingyin gave him to remove his makeup and was about to go downstairs when he suddenly remembered something, turned around, and blinked at Xiao Qingyin.

"Um, shouldn't the puppet spell on me be lifted?"

Although he thought the instant wound healing function was quite useful, a person can't be a puppet forever, right?

Xiao Qingyin handed him a cup of herbal tea: "Drinking this will help."

This herbal tea contains bat blood.

Zhao Xu drank it without hesitation.

Then he walked gracefully downstairs to the soldiers.

At this moment, he was unaware that his separation from Xiao Qingyin and the others was only temporary. They were about to experience unbelievable people and events together.
