"Let's go!" Elder Chen gritted his teeth and left the Jun residence with a dark face.
When has Zhou Yanran ever suffered such humiliation? That dead bird must have been deliberately released by the Jun family to shame them.
Su Xue and Gu Feng were waiting outside when they saw the three of them walk in arrogantly and come out with sullen, dark faces.
Su Xue: ?
Gu Feng: ?
The two exchanged a glance: Were they about to get their comeuppance?
Passersby smelled the scent on the three people and quickly stepped back several paces.
Why does it smell so bad?
"Whose latrine exploded?"
"Ugh! It stinks."
The three left in a hurry, but a foul smell lingered on the street, and passersby were still wondering whose latrine had exploded.
"Pfft, hahaha!"
After everyone left, Gu Feng finally couldn't help but burst into laughter. "Zhou Yanran and Chen Haoze, those two arrogant people who don't care about anyone, actually got covered in shit? If this gets back to the Alchemy Sect, I wonder how embarrassed they'll be, hahaha!"
"What are you laughing at?"
A crisp sound rang out from behind.
"Laughing at them when they're about to die, hahaha." Gu Feng laughed heartily, then belatedly realized that his junior sister's voice sounded a bit off.
He turned his head and met a smiling face. The next moment, he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen and was sent flying backward.
He plopped down on the ground, gasping in shock. How ruthless! He propped himself up on his elbows and stood up.
"You've been following me for so long, tell me, what's your purpose?" Liu Yue crossed her arms and looked at Su Xue and Gu Feng with a mocking expression.
When she saw Gu Feng, he looked familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen him before.
"Do you still remember the prescription you deciphered at the ghost market more than half a month ago?"
Over the past two weeks, they finally managed to find out Liu Yue's identity.
In this world, only she can save Junior Uncle.
"Um."
"Please save my life," Su Xue pleaded earnestly.
"No saving them."
Liu Yue turned and left. If just anyone rushed out and asked her to save people, how could she possibly save them all?
Don't work yourself to death.
"You can have anything you want!" Su Xue said urgently.
"Someone who doesn't even dare to reveal their true identity," Jun Liuyue scoffed. "What sincerity can they possibly have?"
"To be honest, we are from the Alchemy Sect, and the person we are asking you to save is the young master of the Alchemy Sect."
"A prestigious alchemy sect with countless physicians, why would it need to hire outside help?" Liu Yue scoffed, no one would believe such a thing.
"This is the token of the Alchemy Sect. As long as you can save Junior Uncle, you can have anything you want." Su Xue took out the token, which was engraved with the symbol of the Alchemy Sect.
"I want the snow lotus from Tianshan."
After being subjected to such an ordeal, Old Man Jun's body was even weaker than before. Ordinary medicine could no longer improve his condition; only the use of Tian Shan snow lotus could restore his health.
If she remembered correctly, the Tianshan Snow Lotus was a sacred object of the Alchemy Sect.
Upon hearing this, Su Xue looked troubled. Only the sect leader was qualified to obtain the Heavenly Snow Lotus, and it was extremely precious. The entire sect only had one, which had been cultivated for decades.
"good!"
As if she had made a decision, Su Xue nodded, "I promise you."
"Why should I believe you? I will only save your junior uncle when you bring me the Tianshan Snow Lotus."
Liu Yue yawned. She was too tired these past few days and needed to go back and catch up on some sleep.
After the scarlet figure left, Gu Feng couldn't help but ask, "Senior Sister, there's only one Heavenly Snow Lotus in the entire Alchemy Sect. Are you really going to give it to her?"
“What could be more important than Junior Uncle’s life?” Su Xue said solemnly. “However, we should go back and tell Master about this first.”
"Yes." Gu Feng nodded. "But..."
"But what?"
"What if she can't save Junior Uncle?"
Gu Feng frowned. "Wouldn't that be a complete waste of time and effort?"
"I think she can do it." For some reason, when she saw Liuyue, she felt that she was not someone who sought fame and fortune, especially since she was able to decipher the prescription.
"But……"
Gu Feng wanted to say something, but swallowed it back when he met Su Xue's gaze. You know, even the physicians of the Alchemy Sect were helpless against Junior Uncle's coma. How could a girl from a small country be so capable?
...
"I'm so angry! I never knew that a noblewoman from a small country could be so arrogant."
Inside the post station, Zhou Yanran's angry voice rang out.
This was the first time the alchemy sect members had been turned away. "Ugh! It stinks!"
She subconsciously reached out and touched her hair; her hand was sticky, and there was bird droppings on her head!
"Senior sister, you smell terrible."
As Liu Ruyan pushed open the door and walked in, she smelled a stench from a latrine.
She had never seen Zhou Yanran so disheveled before.
She and Zhou Yanran grew up together and appeared to be on good terms, but in reality, Liu Ruyan did not like Zhou Yanran because Zhou Yanran was more talented than herself.
"I'm going to get some water to wash up." Zhou Yanran was so angry she felt like her lungs were about to explode. She washed her hair several times, but there was still a lingering smell.
"Damn you, you wretched bird, don't let me catch you!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Ruyan's lips curled up slightly. She had originally felt very embarrassed after suffering a loss at Jun Liuyue's hands, but seeing Zhou Yanran in such a miserable state made her feel much better.
Liu Ruyan went to see Old Chen and asked him to take her pulse. She dared not say that Jun Liuyue had poisoned her.
She needed to make sure the poison in her body could be cured before she dared to turn against Jun Liuyue.
To Liu Ruyan's surprise, even Elder Chen was unaware that she had been poisoned.
But she was absolutely certain that she had been poisoned.
"Mr. Chen, is there really nothing wrong with my health?"
Liu Ruyan asked incredulously, "That shouldn't be the case. She was poisoned by the Intestinal-Piercing Powder. How could Old Chen not have noticed?"
Could it be that Jun Liuyue was lying to her? Was she saying this on purpose to hinder her?
Thinking of this, Liu Ruyan frowned, but the intense pain was real; it had actually happened.
She dared not gamble!
"Since Jun Liuyue can't be used by us, let's just kill her!"
Zhou Yanran walked in, "To prevent future troubles."
Elder Chen remained silent, clearly acknowledging Zhou Yanran's words. If Jun Liuyue's talent was genuine, falling into the hands of other forces would be extremely detrimental to the Alchemy Sect.
It's better to nip it in the bud.
"Can't."
Liu Ruyan blurted it out.
Zhou Yanran looked at her suspiciously: "Ruyan, what did you say? Didn't you hate Jun Liuyue to the core?"
"I... I mean, if the other envoys from Heavenly Realm Island find out, won't it be detrimental to the Alchemy Sect?"
