Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Su Qian was a sixth-grade alchemist. However, ordinary people did not know that she was actually more skilled in poison than in medicine. It could be said that in Fireflow Kingdom, if she claimed to be the second best in detoxification, no one was worthy of being first.
However, she had never heard of such a poison like the one Xiao Yan had.
“Isn’t Qingqing’s poisonous illness the same? The poison in my body is as difficult to deal with as her poisonous illness.” Xiao Yan’s face did not turn red nor did his heart skip a beat. He did not even take a deep breath as he continued, “Qianqian, think about it. If it was any ordinary poison, I would have gotten someone to cure it long ago. I wouldn’t have to sit in a wheelchair all the time.”
“That’s right.” Su Qian nodded in agreement.
Xiao Yan’s power and influence were immense, and she assumed he had sought many doctors for a diagnosis. But the potent poison he mentioned was unheard of, and other doctors would surely be helpless.
Thinking of this, Su Qian became worried.
It seemed necessary for her to write a letter back to her sect and seek advice from her master.
However, as soon as she thought about sending a message back, she knew her own master would surely nag endlessly. Su Qian immediately dismissed the idea.
“So, does that mean I have to wait for your illness to act up before I can treat you?” Su Qian asked worriedly.
“Yes.” Xiao Yan nodded his head matter-of-factly, “It’s just that 1 don’t have a precise time for my illness to act up. It’s completely beyond my control. So, when my illness acts up, I’ll ask someone to find you to my Imperial Residence to treat me.”
“In that case, it seems there’s no other option.” Su Qian took a deep breath and pulled herself together.” If there’s nothing else, Your Highness can go back first. I still have other matters to attend to, so 1 won’t keep you any longer.”
With that, Su Qian turned and left with large strides.
Only when Su Qian had walked far away and was completely out of sight did Dong Yan finally heave a sigh of relief. He looked nervously at Xiao Yan and said, “Your Highness, you really scared me to death just now!”
Xiao Yan, who had been nervous on the inside as well, finally relaxed at this moment.
He had to admit that the little girl was truly clever.
“Where is Mo Chen now?” Xiao Yan asked in a deep voice.
“Dr. Mo went out to look for medicine. He said that he was in a hurry to refine an eighth-grade elixir and advance to an eighth-grade alchemist as soon as possible,” Dong Yan said.
“Tell him to stop looking and come back to help me refine the elixir. Everything must be refined according to the symptoms I mentioned just now. I want to see that elixir within five days at most.” After saying that, Xiao Yan steered his wheelchair and left.
Dong Yan stared blankly at Xiao Yan’s rapidly departing back, he stood rooted to the spot in a daze for a long time before he finally realized the meaning behind the words His Highness had just spoken.
His Highness wasn’t planning to refine an elixir. He was clearly asking Dr. Mo to refine the toxicant!
When Dong Yan realized this, the muscles at the corner of his lips twitched. He quickened his pace and left.
Meanwhile, Su Qian went to check on Qi Yao’s condition. After confirming that Qi Yao’s body was fine, she decided to start refining the elixir after breakfast.
“There is only one Bodhi Seed, so there is no room for failure during the refinement. I hope that Madam will pass down the order that when I am refining the elixir, no one is allowed to take half a step near the courtyard where I live.” After taking Qi Yao’s pulse, Su Qian reminded Lady Liuhua.
Lady Liuhua had always been aware of the importance of matters. After hearing this, she nodded vigorously and said, “Yes, Miss Su, don’t worry. 1 will personally arrange it. I guarantee that no one will disturb you.”
“Qianqian, you should eat something before you refine the elixir, right? Let’s go. I’ve got someone to prepare breakfast. Let’s go eat together.” Ji Wanwan pulled Su Qian out of the room with a smile and all the way to the dining room..
