If Su Binglan looked closely, she could see a faint blue light lingering around Luo Jin’an’s body.
‘There seems to be a little more spiritual energy in his body.’
Even she thought the change was miraculous. However, she did not find it strange because the Purple Spirit Ginseng was not an ordinary medicinal herb but a spiritual one. Traditional herbs could not compare to the medical effects of spiritual herbs.
Meanwhile, the eagle followed Su Binglan and stood quietly beside her. Its eyes widened with puzzlement and surprise when it sensed the blue light emanating from Luo Jin’an’s body.
Su Binglan sighed in relief when she saw that her husband was okay. Then she asked the eagle, “Can you do me a favor? 1 need you to deliver a letter to someone for me.’
She thought it would probably take a few days for Blue Two and the others to deliver the news to her brother, even if they rode at full speed. However, the eagle could deliver the news to Lan Ruozhu in a day or two.
The eagle understood Su Binglan’s words and nodded.
Then Su Binglan drew a map and said, “Look, this is where we are now, and that’s Su Teng Village. It’s in the south of us. You can reach there by flying south. Help me send this letter to my brother.”
She wrote her letter in code. Then it would be useless if someone else somehow managed to get the letter before Lan Ruozhu.
The eagle raised its talons when it noticed Su Binglan had finished writing. It seemed like it was telling the young lady to tie her letter to its leg.
Su Binglan thought the eagle looked adorable and could not help but laugh.
“Thank you.”
The eagle rubbed its head against Su Binglan’s hand, and the young lady tied her letter to its leg. Then the eagle looked at Su Binglan and flew toward the sky.
Su Binglan looked up until she could no longer see the eagle before returning to her room.
Time slowly passed, and Luo Jin’an opened his eyes when dawn broke.
Su Binglan, standing guard beside him, excitedly asked, “How are you feeling? Better?”
She had just checked her husband’s pulse and found that most of the cold poison had disappeared, with only a small portion remaining. It was no longer a threat to Luo Jin’an.
Su Binglan could fully cure her husband of the poison only when the Purple Spirit Ginseng grew and matured in her pocket dimension.
Luo Jin’an felt his internal energy had recovered and knew he could use force now. Moreover, his internal energy was more abundant than before. He was thrilled when he noticed the changes in his body.
However, he had grown accustomed to controlling his emotions and appeared calm. Still, he could not help but hug his wife, saying, “Bing, thank you.”
Su Binglan leaned against his chest and felt his strong heartbeat. She knew he was happy. “We’re husband and wife, so you don’t have to thank me.”
“All right.” Luo Jin’an did not know how to express his gratitude toward his wife, so he embraced her for a while longer before saying, “Let’s go home and help your brother.”
“Okay.” Su Binglan knew how capable her husband was. With him helping Lan Ruozhu, the deceased royal’s mansion could rest easy.
The young couple set off immediately, but Luo Jin’an remembered that the eagle was by his bed before he took the medicine. He wondered why the eagle was not there when he woke up.
“l told the eagle to deliver the letter for me. If it gets the news to Brother quicker than the others, Brother can make preparations sooner. I believe it’ll be faster than Blue Two and the others.
Su Binglan did not expect to find a spiritual eagle when she looked for the
Purple Spirit Ginseng. Delivering messages with an eagle than a pigeon was much more convenient. After all, killing a pigeon and not an eagle was easier.
Luo Jin’an nodded. “That’s good. We must hurry, but before that, I’ll assemble a hundred-man team.’
Su Binglan was stunned. ‘EA hundred-man team?”
“Yes, they’re from the Wei family.”
“Wasn’t it three years ago…” Su Binglan wanted to ask Luo Jin’an something but could not open her mouth.
Luo Jin’an understood what her wife intended to ask and explained, “These members of the Wei didn’t participate in the war three years ago. We sent them to handle other tasks.
“Although some had gotten injured and had to retreat to recuperate, they survived. Theyve long recovered from their injuries and live at the border.”
“Let’s allow them to continue living peacefully instead of sending them to the battlefield.” Su Binglan shook her head.
The Wei family army had 100,000 soldiers, but over 100 survived. Su Binglan could guess how important these 100 people were to her husband. Therefore, she thought he would want them to live everyday lives instead of going to war.
Luo Jin’an knew what Su Binglan was worried about, so he softly said, “They’ve always wanted to fight. They’re living on for the 100,000 soldiers who gave their lives for them, so they want to revive the Wei family army.
Don’t worry. Also, we must protect the people of the mansion.”
Afterward, Luo Jin’an gathered hundreds of people at breakneck speed.
When everyone received the signal, the people hiding in various places excitedly put down their things and rushed to the Heishan Village. A blacksmith saw the signal and was so excited that he became teary-eyed.
“Master has summoned us!” The blacksmith threw down his iron pliers and continued, “l can finally go to war.”
He had been waiting for this day, impatient to avenge his family. He wanted to fight and avenge those who had sacrificed their lives for the family.
People living in another village were getting up to cook when they saw the signal. They jumped up and down excitedly. “Quick, Brother! Master has summoned us! Bring your weapons and hurry!’
“l wonder how Master is doing? Since he can’t go to the battlefield, we must help him.”
Everyone stopped what they were doing and gathered in Heishan Village. Luo Jin’an had arranged for these people to hide in various places for their protection.
They could only go into hiding since Luo Jin’an had not summoned them then.
These men used to be formidable on the battlefield and did not want to stay in one place. They only wanted to avenge the Wei family army. Their blood was boiling.
Su Binglan also felt she had to help. She knew some of the people from Heishan Village had to stay behind. She also had to consider the people from Apricot Mountain Village since some of them had gotten injured due to the bandits and could not follow Luo Jin’an to the mansion.
Since these were all of Luo Jin’an’s subordinates, Su Binglan wanted to help and do something for them. She thought there were many business opportunities here, and this place could become an economic and transportation hub.
‘There must be many more precious things in Black Mountain Forest. If the villagers were to collect these things, they could make many delicacies and sell them. There’s also plenty of land for development here.’
Su Binglan had brought plenty of silver and had initially planned to develop this place. However, it was too late..
