When wounded on the battlefield, they can be spared from excruciating pain, greatly increasing the chances of recovery. For ordinary people seeking medical treatment, this will be a revolutionary boon, alleviating the suffering of illness.
However, the research and development process was fraught with difficulties, and Ling Wei alone could not handle it all, so she asked Ling Xue for help.
The two worked together seamlessly, one sorting the herbs and the other grinding and mixing them, keeping themselves very busy.
Qin Qianluo was pleased with this and often cast encouraging glances at her.
An Yue watched from the side, itching to join in and help, but Ling Wei mercilessly criticized her for being too careless.
I kept mixing up different kinds of herbs when sorting them, which made all my previous efforts go to waste, and I had no choice but to give up.
Knowing she couldn't help and might even cause trouble, she obediently sat on another stone bench next to Qin Qianluo and picked up a book as well.
Following Qin Qianluo's example, she quietly began to read, occasionally glancing up at the busy Ling Xue and Ling Wei.
Unbeknownst to everyone, Qimeng, wearing an exquisite jade mask, appeared silently like a ghost.
She moved with a light and graceful figure, hidden in the shadows of the corner, taking in the entire scene before her.
Seeing everyone enjoying themselves, a fleeting, almost imperceptible hint of envy flashed in Qi Meng's eyes, but she quickly concealed it without making a sound.
Her gaze was fixed on the direction where An Yue and Qin Qianluo were. The more she looked, the more she found An Yue particularly annoying, as if An Yue's existence had ruined some kind of secret longing in her heart.
After a long while, Qimeng's figure flashed away, like a bat blending into the night, and she quietly left, preparing to urge Yingyi to find the right time to act as soon as possible.
During this time, Shadow One kept a close watch on Dark Moon, like a cheetah lurking in the grass, watching its prey's every move.
But An Yue either stayed in seclusion, hiding in the Left Prime Minister's residence and never going out, leaving him no opportunity to take advantage of her.
He always went out with Qin Qianluo, and the two were inseparable. Qin Qianluo was also surrounded by many guards, making it impossible for him to find a good opportunity to strike.
For now, all we can do is lie low and wait patiently.
In fact, Yingyi wished he could just barge into the Left Prime Minister's residence and deal with Anyue, but Qimeng had given strict orders to eliminate Anyue silently.
He knew that Qimeng was ruthless, and if he disobeyed her orders, he feared he would lose his life.
So he could only suppress his impulses, patiently wait for the right opportunity, and a hint of helplessness and resentment would occasionally flash in his eyes.
Dark Moon was completely unaware of this. Although she had practiced martial arts since childhood and had developed considerable skills, she was completely oblivious to it.
However, compared to Shadow One, there is still a considerable gap.
Not only is Shadow One's martial arts skills unparalleled, but he is also proficient in various ingenious methods of concealing his tracks. This time, under the command of Qi Meng, he used all his skills.
He concealed his aura and figure perfectly, as if he had blended into the surrounding environment and become an invisible shadow.
Despite such extreme disguise, Dark Moon, with its keen senses and high level of vigilance, was still able to conceal its true nature.
There is absolutely no way to catch any clues, and they remain completely unguarded, immersed in the tranquility of daily life.
Like a fleeting shadow, Qi Meng returned to Linglong Pavilion silently. The familiar, serene sandalwood scent wafted towards her, but it couldn't dispel the gloom in her heart.
She walked slowly through the winding corridors and finally entered her room.
The candlelight flickered in the room, casting dances and shimmers on the carved dressing table. She sat quietly before it, her eyes vacant and unfocused, as if shrouded in a mist.
Staring intently at myself in the mirror, I was momentarily lost in a daze, my thoughts drifting away.
The scene she had just witnessed kept replaying in her mind like a movie.
In the courtyard, sunlight streamed through the gaps in the branches and leaves, creating beams of golden light.
Qin Qianluo sat quietly on the stone bench, focused on her book, exuding a tranquil and elegant aura.
Ling Xue and Ling Wei squatted to one side, carefully handling the herbs, occasionally exchanging a few words, their laughter clear and melodious.
Although An Yue did not participate, she sat obediently beside Qin Qianluo, immersing herself in the ocean of knowledge together. The scene was warm and harmonious, full of the warmth of everyday life.
These scenes, like gentle hammers, softly tapped at Qimeng's heartstrings, stirring up ripples in her heart that were difficult to quell.
She slowly raised her slender, pale hand, her fingertips gently touching the exquisite jade mask on her face, tracing its contours inch by inch.
Beneath this mask lies a past she doesn't want others to know, which now symbolizes her isolation from the outside world.
A hint of envy flickered in the depths of her eyes at the genuine affection that naturally flowed between An Yue, Qin Qianluo, and others.
It was an intense longing for warm companionship and intimacy, something that had been buried deep in my heart for a long time, but now it sprouted like bamboo shoots in spring and could no longer be suppressed.
When talking about Qin Qianluo, Qimeng felt a completely different, almost fanatical, possessiveness.
Such a woman, with her outstanding beauty and exceptional talent, was like a dazzling pearl, shining brightly in this world.
Qi Meng secretly thought to herself, if only she could have such a wonderful person under her control.
How exciting and interesting it would be to watch her gradually break away from her predetermined life trajectory and be reshaped according to her own wishes!
