Cough cough...

Qian Youxue coughed a few times because her throat was itchy, and her lips turned a little purple from the choking.

Wu Xie frowned, took Qian Youxue's hand, and this pulse reading terrified him. He put his hand down as if he had touched a hot potato, staring at Qian Youxue in disbelief.

"What's wrong? It's just that your face is better. You can get excited when you see a beautiful woman?" Qian Youxue lazily continued eating her pastries, thinking that this kid was simply shameless.

He's the young master of Medicine Valley; turning an ugly duckling into a beauty is a piece of cake for him. The only reason she was reluctant before was because she was afraid of being crushed to dust in that awful place. Having finally been given a second chance at life, she doesn't want to die so soon.

She wasn't concerned with beauty, but a woman who was too beautiful couldn't survive in that ruthless place. She still needed to keep her life to avenge the original owner of this body, to find the murderer who poisoned her, and to make those people get what they deserved.

Now that she has become so beautiful despite her misfortune, she has no choice but to go to this young man's door and ask for a few disguise pills to avoid causing herself unnecessary trouble.

After a while, Wu Xie finally came to his senses from the excitement, took Qian Youxue's hand again, closed his eyes and calmly took her pulse to confirm that what he had just felt was not an illusion.

It was no illusion. He had searched for a long time but could not find a way to repair her spiritual root. After only one night in the palace, her spiritual root was actually repaired, and even the birthmark on her face disappeared.

"A miracle, it's simply a miracle! Tell me, what kind of encounter did you have when you went into the palace to steal the medicine, that your spiritual root was actually restored?" He held Qian Youxue tightly, staring at her with wide eyes as he asked her to answer.

"What did you say? Your spiritual root has recovered? Are you sure?" Qian Youxue was also incredulous. It was because of this so-called spiritual root that the original owner had become a notorious good-for-nothing in Xuan City.

Not only was she disliked by her family, but she was also spat on and told she had disgraced the Qian family when she went out. She also knew that if her spiritual root didn't recover, she would find it difficult to gain a foothold here relying solely on her skills. More importantly, since arriving in this place, the old Taoist priest had never appeared in her dreams again; she felt like a lost lamb, completely disoriented.

"You're a doctor yourself, how could you not figure it out?" Wu Xie blinked, half believing and half doubting.

That's right, Qian Youxue was not only a doctor, but also a master of both medicine and poison. However, the medicinal herbs in this strange place were completely unfamiliar to her. If it weren't for her strong self-learning ability, she would be a complete novice when faced with those strange herbs.

She had only a superficial understanding of spiritual cultivation here, and her body also had certain limitations; even the poison in her body was removed by Wu Xie.

However, the books I recently found with Wu Xie are quite good; at least they're not as idiotic as they were when I first arrived. I'm also glad that when I first met Wu Xie, the poison in that kid could be forced out with silver needles, otherwise we wouldn't have the friendship we have now.

Coming to her senses, she forced an awkward smile: "Alright, hurry up and give me a few disguise pills. I need to get back quickly; who knows what might happen if I stay out here too long?"

"Then tell me first what kind of encounter you had?" Wu Xie asked persistently.

"It's nothing. I fell into an ice hole when I escaped, slept inside, and when I woke up and climbed out, I was like this." Qian Youxue had no intention of telling Wuxie about the handsome man.

"You're not lying to me?" Wu Xie asked, half-closing his eyes.

"Believe it or not, hurry up, grab some clothes and a disguise pill, and go back to your original appearance. I'm going back. I almost froze to death last night. Yawn! Yawn! This useless body of mine needs to go back and rest for a few days." Qian Youxue sneezed several times in a row and urged impatiently.

Wu Xie's expression suddenly darkened. After a moment of silence, he got up and took out the disguise pill that Qian Youxue wanted from the drawer, along with a ring, and stuffed them into her hand: "Take these. Go back and get some rest. There are quite a few pills in the spatial ring. If you need anything, come find Manager Lin. I'm afraid I'll have to leave for a while."

"Okay, I understand." Qian Youxue didn't ask any more questions. Wuxie often had to go out to find medicine, so she was already used to it.

Wu Xie hesitated for a moment, then took out a stack of silver notes from his pocket and stuffed them into Qian Youxue's hand: "Buy whatever you want, don't mistreat yourself."

Wow……

When did this kid become so generous?

Looking at the thick stack of silver notes, Qian Youxue realized that the young man would probably be gone for a long time. However, since he didn't say anything, she didn't ask any further questions. She took the silver notes, went to find Manager Lin to get a set of clothes, and hurriedly returned to the Qian family.
