The next morning, Xia Sen rushed into Xu Yuehuai's room, his face filled with anxiety and tension.

"Sister, I need to find a very rare elixir!" he said urgently.

Seeing Xia Sen so anxious, Xu Yuehuai couldn't help but feel worried. "What's wrong?" she asked, her eyes full of concern.

Xia Sen took a deep breath, trying to make his voice sound as calm as possible.

“The little princess is unconscious and needs a drug to wake her up,” he explained.

Xu Yuehuai frowned; she knew the importance of this matter.

"What medicine do you want?" she asked.

“I’ve checked, there’s no such medicine here at all. We need to look for it in the nearby mountains,” Xia Sen replied, his eyes filled with determination.

Xu Yuehuai didn't hesitate; she knew time was of the essence. "Okay, I'll take some people and go with you to look for it." Her voice was firm and reassuring.

Immediately afterwards, Xu Yuehuai began to arrange manpower. She knew that this mission was very dangerous and that she needed to be fully prepared.

Yan Qing and the other guards were summoned. They were all elites under Qi Guze, each with unique skills, and were extremely loyal to Qi Guze and Xu Yuehuai.

Xu Yuehuai stood in the courtyard and said to them, "The little princess is in critical condition. We need to find a miracle cure to save her as soon as possible."

"Yes! We are willing to follow! We will find the elixir to save the little princess!"

"Let's get moving!"

"Hurry up, go as soon as possible and come back soon!"

After all, the little princess saved their young master, so they naturally had to help her recover as soon as possible.

Xu Yuehuai smiled and nodded, then went back inside to say goodbye to Qi Guze.

Qi Guze is still unconscious and has not woken up, but his injuries have improved a lot, his complexion is rosy, and his breathing is more stable.

"I'll go help the little princess first and find some things for you to rest and recuperate here." Xu Yuehuai lowered her head and kissed his forehead.

His fingers twitched, as if he sensed everything, but his eyelids felt too heavy to open.

Xu Yuehuai then reluctantly left and immediately went out.

The group quickly packed their belongings and set off towards the mountains. Xia Sen and Xu Yuehuai walked side by side, their faces filled with seriousness and focus.

They all knew that this mission concerned the little princess's life and death, and they could not afford to be careless or negligent in the slightest.

The entrance to the mountain range was particularly eerie, with dense, towering trees blocking out the sun. Gusts of cold wind blew by, sending shivers down one's spine.

Yan Qing and the other guards cautiously surveyed their surroundings, gripping their weapons tightly, ready to deal with any danger at any moment.

Xu Yuehuai observed the surrounding environment and frowned slightly. They were currently in a dense mountain forest, surrounded by trees whose branches and leaves intertwined, forming a thick green barrier.

The ground here is rugged and uneven, with jagged rocks and a complex terrain that can make you dizzy and disoriented if you are not careful.

She turned around and said to the guards behind her, "You guys spread out and patrol the area. Be sure to stay alert and pay attention to safety."

The guards responded in unison, "Yes!"

They then dispersed and cautiously surveyed their surroundings.

Xu Yuehuai sighed softly. She knew the dangers of this mountain forest; if she didn't take strict precautions, she could easily be attacked by wild beasts.

At the same time, she also understood the importance of this mission. If they could find that rare elixir, they might be able to save the little princess's life.

Just as Xu Yuehuai was pondering her next move, Xia Sen walked over anxiously. His eyes darted around, as if searching for something.

"Sister, I've been searching for a long time, but I still haven't found any trace of that elixir," Xia Sen said dejectedly.

Seeing Xia Sen's anxious expression, Xu Yuehuai couldn't help but feel moved. She knew that Xia Sen and the little princess had a deep bond, and that he was willing to risk his life to come to this dangerous mountain forest to save the little princess.

“Ah Sen, we can’t give up. I believe that as long as we keep searching, we will definitely find that elixir,” Xu Yuehuai said firmly.

Xia Sen nodded, took a deep breath, and tried to calm himself. He knew time was running out; the little princess's life was slipping away bit by bit.

He cannot give up, nor can he fail.

So the group continued their search for the rare medicinal herb in the mountains. They traversed dense forests and climbed steep hills, but they still couldn't find any trace of it.

Yan Qing and the other guards also helped with the search. They searched the mountains and forests for a long time, but they found no clues.

Time ticked by, and Xia Sen's mood grew heavier and heavier. His eyes revealed a hint of panic and helplessness; he didn't know what to do.

Xu Yuehuai noticed Xia Sen's worry and helplessness, so she stepped forward and gently patted his shoulder.

"Maybe if we walk a few more steps, we'll see the medicinal herb?" Xu Yuehua encouraged.

Xia Sen turned to look at Xu Yuehuai, a hint of gratitude flashing in his eyes. He knew Xu Yuehuai was only saying that to comfort him, but he also knew about the dangers and uncertainties in this mountain forest.

They have been searching here for far too long, but have found nothing.

“Sister, I know you're saying this to comfort me. But we've searched for so long, and we haven't even found a trace of that elixir. I'm afraid that if this continues, the little princess…”

Xia Sen's voice choked with emotion; he couldn't continue.

Xu Yuehuai remained silent for a moment; she knew Xia Sen was telling the truth. But there was nothing they could do now but continue the search.

"Ah Sen, the little princess is still waiting for us. We must get that elixir," Xu Yuehuai said firmly.

"Yes!" Xia Sen mustered his courage again.

Just as they were venturing deeper into the mountains, a low roar suddenly rang out, startling everyone.

They looked closely and saw a huge tiger rushing out of the woods and pouncing on them.

Yan Qing and the other guards immediately raised their weapons, preparing to fight the tiger. Their faces showed tension, and their eyes were filled with vigilance.

Xu Yuehuai looked terrified, gripping Xia Sen's arm tightly with both hands.

Xia Sen sensed Xu Yuehuai's fear. He gently patted the back of her hand and softly comforted her, "Sister, don't be afraid, I'm here." His eyes were firm, his face full of courage and determination.

Upon seeing this, Yan Qing and the other guards were startled. They had never seen such a ferocious tiger before and were at a loss for how to deal with it.
