When Wen Xue was horrified to find herself unable to move suddenly, and was about to beg for mercy from Huo Xinger, the long sword in Huo Xinger's hand pierced straight into her chest.
Huo Xing'er was covered in blood, and when the sword pierced Wen Xue's chest, she was stunned. She seemed to be unable to believe that she had such great ability to kill Wen Xue.
Huo Xinger subconsciously pulled the sword out of Wen Xue's body. When he realized what a foolish thing he had done, he was so scared that the sword fell to the ground with a clang.
Just at this moment, a group of people suddenly came over.
Wen Yu and Chongshan were the leaders, followed by Wei Qingling, several of her elders, and a group of guards from the City Lord's Mansion.
"Xue'er!"
When Wen Yu rushed over, he happened to see Huoxing'er piercing Wen Xue's chest with his sword. He rushed forward, furious, and grabbed the falling Wen Xue. He raised his hand and slapped Huoxing'er's head fiercely, still in a daze.
Huoxinger's brain burst apart and he died instantly. He fell to the ground, deader than dead.
Seeing this, the others just looked at the sparks on the ground indifferently.
Because except Wen Yu, no one else knew who Huoxinger was, and no one had any sympathy for her death.
Wen Yu hugged Wen Xue tightly, his sadness beyond words.
"Xue'er, it's my fault. I'm late."
Wen Xue opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but large mouthfuls of blood spurted out. Wen Yu stuffed the pill into Wen Xue's mouth without asking for money, but as soon as it was put in, blood rushed out.
But after a few seconds, Wen Xue's eyes began to blur.
Before Wen Xue could utter a single word, she completely lost her life.
"Xue'er!"
Wen Yu cried out in grief.
Seeing this, others came over one by one to urge him to mourn.
Originally, Chongshan and Wei Qingling and their group came here to settle the score with Wen Xue for betraying Wei Qingling.
As a result, just as we found the person, he disappeared.
When a person dies, all debts are settled.
The hatred in Wei Qingling's eyes gradually disappeared because of Wen Xue's death, and was replaced by pleasure.
"Young City Lord, now that things have come to this, we will take our leave. As for Miss Wen's funeral, we will definitely attend."
Wen Yu, still immersed in grief, had a subtle flash of hostility in his eyes. He suppressed his sadness, carefully hugged Wen Xue, and nodded to Chongshan and his group.
Wait until they leave.
Xiao Qingran, Feng Qing and Shangguan Jing also followed him out of the city.
More than ten miles outside the city, the invisibility talisman was removed. The four assassins were found. Xiao Qingran fulfilled his promise, not only giving them the breath-suppressing talisman but also some medicinal pills to each of them.
"I want you to swear to keep our dealings a secret."
The four assassins didn't know Wen Xue was dead yet. If they did, they would definitely suspect them. If they accidentally revealed anything, it would definitely be detrimental to them. Only by swearing an oath would she feel at ease.
Otherwise, we will just have to get rid of them.
The killers had seen Xiao Qingran making pills, so they were very confident about the quality of the pills.
After this incident, they also witnessed Xiao Qingran's methods. Even if Xiao Qingran did not let them swear, they would keep this matter to themselves.
There was an extra reward, so they naturally didn't want to miss it. The four of them quickly swore to the heavens, and Xiao Qingran was satisfied and gave each of them a few different pills.
After sending the four assassins away, the three of them quietly returned to the Monster Forest.
The Warcraft Forest was as lively as ever. With the Memory Breaking Pills sold by Xiao Qingran, no one was worried about being dragged into dreams by nightmare beasts.
Perhaps it was because the Memory Breaking Pill sold by Xiao Qingran was too cheap, so many people came to her to buy the pill.
As soon as the three appeared, a large number of monks surrounded them.
Xiao Qingran accepted everyone who came and made pills for everyone on the spot.
The news that Xiao Qingran could mass-produce elixirs spread, and the rulers of the four great empires quickly received the news.
For those in higher positions, talented alchemists and weapon makers, such as these talented seedlings, must be recruited as early as possible.
After their people found out that Xiao Qingran was just a casual cultivator, they became more confident in recruiting her. It all depends on which country offers the most benefits.
Great Xiao.
Xiao Jiyuan arranged for the emperor's trusted eunuch to pass on the news that the emperor wanted the imperial teacher to personally recruit Xiao Qingran to him.
When Xiao Jiyuan heard about this, he immediately went to meet the emperor.
"What did you say? Xiao Qingran is your aunt?"
The old emperor couldn't believe that such a good thing could happen.
If Xiao Qingran were the princess of the Great Xiao Kingdom, then no matter how much benefits other countries offered, it would be useless.
"Eighteenth Aunt suffered from many illnesses when she was young. It was Doctor Heng who took her to the Great Wind Country to seek medical treatment. They were away for over twenty years."
Xiao Jiyuan originally did not intend to let Xiao Qingran have any involvement with the Great Xiao Kingdom, so as to prevent her from being plotted against by other empires.
Now that my aunt is famous, if the Great Xiao Kingdom doesn't stand up, given my aunt's temper, she will definitely not join any country. If she arouses public anger, it will be disadvantageous to her.
It would be better to confirm her identity.
Twenty years ago, the last emperor's youngest daughter fell ill shortly after birth and was taken away by Imperial Physician Heng to seek medical treatment. A few years later, the young aunt passed away from an incurable disease. Fearing punishment upon returning to the country, Imperial Physician Heng remained in hiding. When he learned of this, he secretly recruited Imperial Physician Heng to his staff. He was still considering how to allow Imperial Physician Heng to appear openly in the imperial palace. Unexpectedly, when he felt sleepy, his aunt brought him a pillow.
I guess my aunt’s arrival was also God’s will.
Isn't that Eighteenth Aunt the same age as my aunt? And she looks like him too. With Imperial Physician Heng as a witness, no one would doubt it.
Even if they have doubts, my aunt's identity as an alchemist can make those people shut up.
"It turned out to be Little Eighteen. I remember she was just that young back then. Not long after Doctor Heng took her away, her mother fell ill from missing her and passed away not long after. I thought after all these years, she might have passed away. I didn't expect Doctor Heng to actually cure her illness, and she even has the ability to make elixirs. If her mother were still alive, she would definitely be very happy."
Xiao Jiyuan nodded. "Life is unpredictable. I never thought that the person I would meet that time would be Aunt Eighteen. If I hadn't heard the name Xiao Qingran recently, I would have forgotten about meeting Aunt Eighteen. No wonder I felt a sense of familiarity when I first saw her. Besides, Aunt Eighteen and I look a bit similar. Maybe it's because we are blood relatives. She encountered some problems back then, and I stepped forward to help her out."
"Is there such a thing? That's great. Since you know your Eighteenth Aunt, why don't you go in person? And call Doctor Heng back to thank him for taking care of Little Eighteen for the past twenty years."
