As an alchemist, she knew very well how precious top-grade pills were.
This was the first time she had ever seen a top-grade elixir.
But Wei Qinghe generously gave it to her.
She had better survive, otherwise it would be a waste of such a good elixir and a disservice to Wei Qinghe's good intentions.
Wei Qinghe didn't think much about it, nor did she have time to consider Pu Menglan's thoughts.
"Aunt Lan, don't be nervous, it will be over soon."
After speaking, Wei Qinghe began to administer acupuncture. Her silver needles were all made by herself using special materials.
Watching Wei Qinghe's skillful movements, as the silver needles fell accurately one by one, Pu Menglan was somewhat dazed.
"I'm not nervous, I'm just so happy."
She was happy for her good friend.
If only the Celestial Venerable Yongnian and his wife were still alive.
When Fang Yun and Qi Cheng returned with the prepared medicine, Pu Menglan already had many silver needles inserted into her body.
Pu Menglan also looked pained. Although Wei Qinghe had mentioned it before, Fang Yun was still very anxious.
"Mother……"
Qi Cheng intervened again and pulled her back, saying, "Trust your junior sister."
Now that things have come to this, there is no choice but to trust Wei Qinghe.
Although Pu Menglan was in pain, she was still conscious, and she gave Fang Yun a bitter smile.
"Yun'er, don't come any closer, Mother is feeling much better."
Wei Qinghe slowly removed the needles. "Under normal circumstances, there is indeed some improvement, but because the poisoning is too severe, long-term treatment is still needed."
As long as it can be cured, time is not an issue.
While Fang Yun felt relieved, another knot formed in her heart.
Who poisoned Pu Menglan?
The poisoning has been so severe, how many years has it been?
What kind of poison is this? Why didn't even her mother, herself, or Qi Cheng discover it?
A startling guess suddenly came to mind.
Fang Wei'an.
Fang Wei'an, who was able to poison her mother silently and over many years, was probably the easiest to succeed and would not arouse suspicion.
Who would have thought that a man who deeply loved his wife and always put her first would poison her?
Having this thought, her mood instantly soured.
Not long after, Pu Menglan was sent to take a medicinal bath.
Fang Yun came out of her room, hesitated for a moment, and then pulled Wei Qinghe back to her room.
"Sister Qinghe, what kind of poison has my mother been suffering from? Approximately how many years has she been infected?"
Seeing her like this, Wei Qinghe knew what she was thinking. In fact, Wei Qinghe thought the same thing.
"This poison is called Water Rhyme. It is colorless and odorless. It is made with Water Cloud Stone and Thousand Machine Water. It is considered the nemesis of fire spirit roots, as it wears down and damages fire spirit roots."
The poison slowly seeps into the internal organs and then into the bone marrow, causing the poisoned person to suffer daily from the torment of being torn apart by fire and water…
"How vicious!" Fang Yun clenched her fists tightly, the veins on the back of her hands bulging.
"Sister Yun, I can cure Aunt Lan, it just takes some time. Gradually, her pain will lessen, so don't worry."
Wei Qinghe felt great sympathy for her.
If her parents were still alive, she wouldn't want to see them suffer any pain.
Fang Yun gripped Wei Qinghe's hand tightly. "I certainly believe in Qinghe's medical skills. Qinghe, you had contact with that person inside the five-story tower. Do you think it's possible that he was the one who did it?"
"Who else but him would have such a good opportunity? Who else would have the motive to kill my mother?"
Wei Qinghe did not answer directly, "Now that he's out, why not wait until we see him and ask him in person?"
Fang Yun smiled disdainfully, "He must have forgotten that he has a wife and daughter. With such a major event happening in the City That Never Sleeps, how could he bear to let his beloved suffer?"
Wei Qinghe patted her shoulder and said confidently:
“Yi Haoyue needs my pills, and he will also participate in the Pill Guild’s alchemist competition for Yi Haoyue’s sake. You will meet soon, but should we let Aunt Lan know about this?”
Wei Qinghe had genuinely wanted to befriend Yi Haoyue, but after learning about Yi Haoyue and Fang Weian's relationship, she gave up on that idea.
However, although she gave Yi Haoyue a lot of top-quality beauty pills last time, her trip to the secret realm was not a loss.
She got all the treasures inside the five-story pagoda, she obtained the inheritance, and even the five-story pagoda itself belonged to her.
However, Fang Wei'an had no way to deal with Yi Haoyue's situation, otherwise he wouldn't have entered the secret realm.
For the next few days, Wei Qinghe stayed at the Lingdan Sect.
Thanks to Wei Qinghe's efforts, Pu Menglan's health has indeed shown a visible improvement.
"We can begin the second treatment today. I need to go out and collect some stamens and dew from the Crimson Flame Flower."
"I'll go too."
Qi Cheng stepped forward, explaining that many medicinal herbs require a certain time limit from collection to use in medicine.
The Crimson Flame Flower only blooms for half an hour, and the required stamens must also be in full bloom at the same time. The time it takes to pick them cannot exceed one hour.
Wei Qinghe thought for a moment. If it were any other kind of medicinal herb, then it wouldn't matter who went, but this time was different.
She said earnestly, "Fifth Senior Brother, you stay here to help Sister Yun take care of Aunt Lan and keep an eye on the time to change the medicine soup. I can go by myself. I can fly on my sword faster, which will give me an advantage in terms of time."
"Daoist Fuyue, you also stay here and keep an eye on Aunt Lan's condition at all times, and protect Aunt Lan's fire spirit root with your spiritual power at all times."
This time, Qi Cheng agreed without hesitation.
After all, he was no match for Daoist Fuyue and Wei Qinghe in buying time, and the most important thing right now was to detoxify Pu Menglan.
