The valley.
Yin Moran and Lin Qian brought along the three little ones and ca before the two high elders.
"Shigong, Grandma Nie."
Chu Ziyang politely greeted the two elderly figures.
"Hmm, you’ve co?"
Qi Kun sat upright on the stone bench, his gaze fixed on the pills on the table. When he saw the three little ones appear, his eyes lit up.
"Hey, my other little grand-disciple is here too?"
Lin Zirui took a small step back, tightened his grip on Lin Qian’s delicate hand, yet still politely greeted Qi Kun.
"Sir Qi."
This old man whom he both feared and respected!
This ti, he was determined not to stay in the valley.
"What’s your na again? Zirui, right? Co over, why so far from ? Let your shigong see if you’ve improved lately."
Qi Kun really liked Lin Zirui. Seeing him lean towards Lin Qian, he imdiately got up to fetch him.
Lin Zirui’s little face tightened, clutching Lin Qian’s hand even tighter, "No improvent! I’ve been learning computers lately, not dicine!"
In other words, he didn’t want to learn dicine from Qi Kun.
Lin Qian understood, and hurriedly pulled Lin Zirui behind her, awkwardly smiling, "Old Sir Qi, thank you for your kindness, but Zirui prefers technology, so he won’t be learning dicine from you."
The little son had a shadow cast on his heart witnessing that!
Old Sir Qi, please let it go!
"Such a good student, why not learn dicine from ? This won’t do!"
Qi Kun looked displeased, puffing his beard and glaring at Lin Qian.
"Ahem, Old Sir Qi, you already have one grand-disciple, leave so talent for other fields too."
Yin Moran coughed lightly, moving closer, deliberately changing the subject, "So, how have things been progressing with Senior Nie lately?"
Upon hearing this, Qi Kun’s old eyes sparkled, and a suspicious blush appeared on his aged face.
"Hehe, why are you asking so much? Where’s my grand-disciple? Co over and let check your condition."
The topic finally shifted away, and Yin Moran looked at Lin Qian, their eyes filled with amusent.
However, this amusent didn’t last two seconds, as Nie Fang suddenly spoke, making Lin Qian inhale sharply.
"Lin, is this also your daughter? This little one is full of vitality! Why not leave her in the valley to keep this old lady company."
Leave Candy in the valley!
Why do these two high elders keep fixating on her children!
Lin Qian swallowed her saliva, scanning Nie Fang, who was staring intently at her daughter, and instinctively hugged Candy tighter.
Before she could speak, Candy piped up in her childish voice.
"Grandma, I may look smart, but I’m the dumbest. I’m always scorned by my brothers who say my IQ is too low. Better not stay and keep you company, lest I anger you into falling ill."
The brothers had told her how terrifying this valley was.
She didn’t want to end up like them, far away from Daddy and Mommy!
"Hey, you little rascal, how entertaining you are!"
Nie Fang, hearing Candy’s innocent words, burst into hearty laughter.
Candy smiled ingratiatingly, clutching Lin Qian’s beautiful leg tightly, her dark eyes never leaving Nie Fang, fearing she might be whisked away.
"Ahem, thank you, esteed elders, for your affection. No doubt, as otherworldly masters, Ziyang’s antidote is ready, isn’t it?"
Yin Moran found it amusing and quickly changed the subject to the antidote.
Upon hearing this, the smiles on Qi Kun and Nie Fang’s faces slightly faded.
Qi Kun picked up the bottle on the table, opened the lid, and poured out a pill.
"Of course, you don’t forget who Xiao Fang and I are? We haven’t encountered a problem we can’t solve. Grand-disciple, co, take the pill."
"Thank you, Shigong."
Chu Ziyang stepped forward, took the pill from Qi Kun’s hand, and put it in his mouth.
Lin Qian hurried forward and poured him a glass of water.
Watching Chu Ziyang swallow the pill, Lin Qian was full of urgency, "Ziyang, how do you feel?"
Can it be this easy?
Has the toxin in her son’s body really been neutralized?
"This is an antidote, not a miracle, the effect won’t kick in imdiately."
Qi Kun stroked his white beard and handed the dicine bottle to Yin Moran.
"This bottle contains half a month’s supply of pills. Take one morning and evening, and avoid spicy food. After finishing, co back for a check to see if the toxins in his body have been completely cleared."
Upon hearing this, Yin Moran put away the bottle and thanked them sincerely.
"Elders, I sincerely thank you once again. If there’s anything you need in the future, please don’t hesitate to ask."
Luckily, they t these high elders, which allowed their son to escape from danger.
Truly, thank you very much.
"No need to thank us, we didn’t create the Detoxification Pills solely for you."
Nie Fang glanced at Yin Moran, a trace of sharpness in her old eyes.
"The toxins were extracted from my father’s ancestral prescription. The true culprit is the one who stole the formula. If ever I catch the thief, I will cut him to pieces."
The one who stole the recipe?
Nie Fang was referring to a forr ally and senior brother.
The man she once admired.
Yin Moran’s dark eyes flickered, thoughtful.
The toxins in Ziyang’s body were clearly related to Mr. Qi.
So, what was the relationship between Mr. Qi and that man?
"Yin, it’s up to you to catch the culprit behind the poisoning. Once caught, make him confess who taught him the dical knowledge."
Qi Kun’s face remained composed as he instructed Yin Moran.
Yin Moran nodded slightly, no objections.
"Alright, it’s already noon? Yin, we’ve helped you and your wife so much, shouldn’t you reward us?"
Qi Kun finished the serious talk, raised his brow at Yin Moran, his old eyes glinting with a deeper aning.
Yin Moran imdiately understood, "Of course, why don’t we cook a al for you both?"
Old Sir Qi was reluctant to leave the valley, hoping he would fulfill his promise to bring him and Nie Fang together!
"Hmm, that sounds like a good idea! We’ll leave the kitchen to you then."
Qi Kun nodded approvingly, his gaze falling upon the three little ones, beckoning them over.
"You three, co over, let your Grandma Nie and I have a good look at you."
"Uh, Mommy, I’ll help you cook!"
Lin Zirui’s scalp tingled as he hurriedly made his way to Lin Qian’s side with his short legs.
"You little rascal, trying to run? Caught you."
Qi Kun was quick to catch Lin Zirui’s small fra.
"Aah, Sir Qi, let down, I don’t want to learn dicine!"
"Hehe, don’t worry, Sir Qi won’t make you learn dicine, just showing you my new skills."
Seeing Lin Zirui being taken away, Candy looked nervously at Nie Fang.
"Mommy, I can help you wash the vegetables."
The old lady’s gaze was so intimidating!
She didn’t want to be caught like her brother.
"Wash vegetables? Little one, co play with Grandma Nie!"
"Aah, Mommy, save !"
