"No need to say anything more, go!" Luo Xi said firmly, folded the letter and put it away, then strode outside.
Chu Zhe and Bai Hu nodded to the group behind them, silently saying that they were there, and then chased after Luo Xi.
“Brother Luo Chen, why didn’t you persuade the chief? You should know how dangerous this trip will be.” Yin Li looked at Si Jia.
Si Jia stood there, gazing towards the gate, and chuckled softly, saying, "You didn't try to stop me either, did you?"
Yin Li was taken aback. Yes.
They all know they should offer advice, but they can't, and they're unable to.
So they all remained silent.
Luo Xi had just stepped out of the house when she stopped and opened the box that Nan Wushang had given her.
Inside, there were countless tiny bottles of all kinds, some made of gourds and others of ceramic, each one very small and exquisite.
"What kind of medicine is in there?" Chu Zhe asked, sticking his head over.
"I'll only know once I see it." Luo Xi carefully picked up one of them and then noticed a note on the outside of the bottle, which explained the use and precautions of the medicine. Judging from the handwriting, it should have been written by Nan Wushang himself.
"It's a deadly poison that kills instantly," she said.
Chu Zhe then looked at the other bottles: "They're all pretty much the same, all poison."
"No wonder no one likes to deal with him. His methods are all poisonous, which is really creepy."
“There’s more than one layer.” Loxi removed the top layer, and the second layer was full of essential wound medicines and the like.
On the last layer, there was only a white porcelain bottle with a piece of paper underneath. The paper read: "This is a life-saving medicine I made using the divine water you gave me and precious medicinal herbs. I only have one pill left. It is much more effective than drinking the divine water directly. Use it as you see fit."
"This Nan Wushang is really interesting. He could have told you in person, but he insisted on writing it down." Chu Zhe found it amusing.
"He's got something wrong with his head," White Tiger commented from the side.
Luo Xi quickly packed everything back to its original state and put it into the bag on her back, which was actually her spatial storage.
Let's go.
Along the way, they rode fast horses day and night. Fortunately, this section had been conquered by Yue Zheng Feiyuan and now belonged entirely to them. So, new horses were prepared for them along the way, and they changed horses as they went, making their speed very fast.
A few days later, the three arrived at Yue Zheng Feiyuan's camp.
"Boss, you've finally arrived." Le Zheng Feiyuan breathed a sigh of relief and invited Luo Xi to sit down at the head of the command tent.
"You don't know, Xiao He has been urging us every day lately, saying that if we don't see Dongxi and Doctor Nan soon, he'll take it out on the Ninth Master."
Luo Xi poured herself a glass of water and drank it down. Once her mouth was no longer so dry, she asked, "Have we all stopped fighting now?"
Le Zhengfei nodded: "We haven't moved on either of our fronts. I've also followed your instructions and had General Xia transfer his army here. I believe they'll arrive soon."
"Well done." Luo Xi drank another glass of water, finally feeling less thirsty. "I already have news about Jiu Xian. Once confirmed..."
"Great!" Qi Lei cheered before Luo Xi could finish speaking: "Boss, you have no idea how frustrated we've been lately. That guy Xiao He keeps sending people over to provoke us, and we can only stay put."
He waved his fist and said hatefully, "When we rescue the Ninth Master, they'll be in for a world of hurt."
Qi Lei couldn't wait to see Xiao He and his men being swiftly slaughtered by the sharp weapons in his hands.
"Don't get too excited yet." Luo Xi glanced at him: "This news was sent by Xiao Yi, and it's still hard to say whether it's a trap or not."
Xiao Yi?
Le Zhengfei and several generals, including Qi Lei, exchanged glances and then asked, "So, his betrayal might have been due to unavoidable circumstances?"
Rosie shook her head: "It's hard to say."
“We have to verify the truth ourselves.” She looked at Le Zhengfeiyuan: “Go tell Xiao He that he can have what he wants, but he’ll have to wait a few days.”
“Alright!” Yue Zhengfei knew that Luo Xi was trying to stall for time.
After arranging what had just happened, he sighed and began to talk about another matter with a worried expression.
"I have also received news that other vassal kings of Tianqi have gathered here and joined forces with Xiao He to prepare for a share of the spoils."
"Together with Xiao He?" Luo Xi was astonished. "Are they mistaken? I remember that most of the vassal kings of Tianqi were members of the royal family."
Le Zheng Feiyuan nodded, and said with some mixed feelings, "That's right."
"That's interesting." Luo Xi sneered, "Xiao He killed their emperor and seized their throne. Not only do these people not punish him, but they can even put aside their past grievances and unite to attack us?"
"Their tolerance is really huge!"
Le Zhengfeiyuan, who came from a prestigious family, was used to such things: "This is how the royal family has always been. The situation with Xiao He is already settled, and they can't change anything. They also see that there is profit to be made here, so it's not surprising that they have joined forces."
That's really true; Rosie was speechless.
But... when did her things become Xiao He's bargaining chips to win people over?
What a joke.
She would rather destroy the Spirit Spring Tree than give it to them.
Looking at the saplings growing more and more vigorously in the space, Rosine felt a mix of emotions.
Good things can be useful sometimes, but they can also be a disaster. She and Chu Zhe came here because of it, and now they've caused this mess.
It is true that misfortune may be a blessing in disguise, and a blessing may be a harbinger of misfortune!
"Don't overthink it." Chu Zhe took two steps toward Luo Xi and said softly, "Maybe it's all fate."
Luo Xi looked up in surprise: "We've known each other for so long, how come I didn't know you believed in this?"
Chu Zhe smiled gently: "Occasionally."
Otherwise, why would he have met Luo Xi during his most difficult time, been saved by her, and then fallen into this ancient world with her?
Just as Luo Xi was about to speak, a soldier walked in from outside the tent: "Reporting to the chief, Su Tang of the Heavenly God Sect wants to see you. He is already waiting outside the camp."
Su Tang of the Heavenly God Sect?
Luo Xi was puzzled. Did he want to buy something again? But surely he didn't need to come to buy things. Didn't he send someone else to buy them last time?
"Just him?" Rose asked.
"No, there are also some of his personal guards and such, who seem to be quite skilled in martial arts."
It seemed this wasn't about buying anything. After a moment's thought, Loxi had the soldiers bring the person in.
Su Tang and Yang Erlang have somewhat similar appearances, both having a sage-like and otherworldly demeanor. To put it more vividly...
Yes, that's what those fortune tellers on the street look like!
While Luo Xi was sizing up Su Tang, Su Tang was also observing Luo Xi. After a while, he bowed and greeted her.
"I haven't yet thanked Boss Luo for his help." He spoke quite politely.
It's all about getting what you need, there's nothing more to say, and Luo Xi doesn't have time to waste with him.
"What do you want from me?" she asked directly.
