When his past cris were brought up, Bei Yun fell silent again.
To be honest, he himself could hardly believe he could beco a person—a transformation from beast to human was far too terrifying.
Bei Yun kept quiet, while Bei Lingsu spoke again, "Does Xiaomai know where Madam Gu is?"
"She doesn’t know. Moreover, she said Madam Gu currently doesn’t have any Divine Liquid. She can only use Floral Dew to temporarily suppress the poison in my body. She also admitted that the reason Floral Dew works on everyone is because Madam Gu gave her the formula."
"Well, that’s great! Right now, people don’t trust you, and Xiaomai can’t et Madam Gu anyway. So, I’ll seal your inner strength, and you can travel with to various places to practice dicine and heal people. Ti will prove that you’ve changed. By then, Xiaomai can rightfully ask Madam Gu for the Divine Liquid."
Bei Yun replied, "...The Capital City is lively. I want to stay in the Capital City. Before, I always road around desolate mountains and forests. I don’t want to keep doing that."
"Then stay in the Capital City. You can offer free dical treatnt to its residents."
"Can you even make such a decision?" Bei Yun asked.
"His Highness Prince Wei would grant that favor."
"Tsk, don’t take advantage of soone’s affection. Be careful—one day, they might not like you anymore."
Bei Lingsu: "..."
She stomped her foot. "Shut up!"
Bei Yun couldn’t help but laugh. He exhaled and then tilted his head to gaze at the night sky.
"This matter is of great importance; I need to think it through carefully."
Bei Lingsu said, "...Sothing as groundbreaking as Divine Liquid, and you still have to think about it? If it were , I’d have agreed with sheer joy already!"
"Right now, all that’s left in is beast-like nature, not humanity. You want to transform from a beast into a human—that’s an enormous challenge."
"But to show my sincerity, let tell you how I survived back then."
The sudden shift in topic caught Bei Lingsu off guard, and she frowned. "Why are you bringing this up?"
"To show my sincerity. You’ve trusted to this extent; if I don’t share sothing in return, I wouldn’t feel right. To be exact, it wasn’t just one herbal dicine that suppressed the strange poison in my body. When my poison flared up, I went mad and ate every plant I could find around . Those plants truly had an effect, temporarily suppressing the poison."
"Later, I stayed there for a long ti to research and eventually discovered that five kinds of plants mixed together could suppress the strange poison temporarily. Among these five, the primary herb was Sanqi. The other two were Pueraria and Boea Clarkean. As for the other two, I won’t disclose them for now."
"Sanqi?" Bei Lingsu was sowhat stunned.
"Yes, this herb grows in the south. However, Qiao Xiaomai managed to grow it in the Capital City. Her resources go beyond the formula for Floral Dew that Madam Gu gave her—she truly has a treasure trove at her disposal."
Bei Lingsu said, "...Stop bringing her into this. Just talk about yourself. Are you really planning to pass up such a once-in-a-lifeti chance?"
"If you joined Daqi’s side, then together we could easily take care of the Three Kingdoms. By then, you could atone for your sins, and I’d fight to win you even greater freedom."
"That’s very tempting." Bei Yun pressed his lips together.
"Then what are you hesitating for?!"
"Freedom. I’ve always been used to doing as I please."
Bei Lingsu: "..."
She roughly rubbed her face in frustration. Bei Yun was truly about to drive her mad.
"Don’t hurt Xiaomai." That was all she could advise him. "While you haven’t made an irreversible mistake, and while I can still use my reputation to cover for you, I beg you—be a person."
