Chapter 360: Chapter 360: That’s Courting Death!
“No, no, it’s just a tiny punishnt, just a bit, haha.”
She stretched out her hand, forming a small gap with her thumb and forefinger in front of Ya Molian, trying hard to appear at ease.
“A tiny punishnt?”
Ya Molian raised his eyebrows, staring at her without even blinking.
What kind of tiny punishnt would make this girl risk her life to complete this task at the Youxiang River?
“Yes, a tiny punishnt. Ah, it really is just a tiny punishnt.” Lin Caisang, feeling unnerved by his gaze, turned away and tried not to look at him.
“As a healer, I must be prepared to save lives and treat injuries. I can’t just give up because of a minor setback. I can’t admit failure just because of a tiny matter. Anyway, I am confident that I can…”
“You wait at ho. I’ll go to the Youxiang River.”
Before Lin Caisang could finish, she heard Ya Molian’s deep voice.
“What?!”
Lin Caisang was startled and quickly turned around to stare at him.
“No, what are you going to do? You can’t go. You absolutely can’t.”
What a joke! How could she possibly let Ya Molian go to such a notorious place as the Youxiang River? She was well aware of the danger there. Allowing Ya Molian to go was simply sending him to his death.
“Don’t you know how cold the Youxiang River is? Your poisoning makes you intolerant to extre cold or heat for too long; otherwise, the poison will flare up. If you go to the Youxiang River, you are seeking death!”
“It’s either I go or I take you back ho; then we both go nowhere. Choose one,” Ya Molian said firmly, giving her two options.
Upon hearing this, Lin Caisang fell silent.
Choose one of the two: Can she choose to fail the task outright?
“Wait, I am going to ask what punishnt will be issued for failing the task.” She spoke in a low voice to Ya Molian before turning and heading back into the room Ya Molian had prepared for her in the bamboo house.
“Co out.”
As soon as Lin Caisang left, Ya Molian’s gaze dimd, and he coldly spat out two words.
“Master.”
Zhe Jue imdiately ca out, looking at his master.
“Are you really planning to go to the Youxiang River?”
Last ti they went to the Youxiang River, they suffered heavy losses. Although he had thought about going back with enough manpower since then, Master had given the order that they shall not step foot into the Youxiang River again.
“Start preparing.”
Ya Molian didn’t say much; he just gave the order.
“Master, you don’t have to go personally. I will take people to bring ‘Extre Hell Ginseng’ back,” Zhe Jue offered, seeing that Molian didn’t seem to have any doubts.
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt the sharp gaze of his master, like a knife carving his flesh, and he could only grit his teeth and respond.
“Yes, I will prepare right away.”
“Wait.”
Suddenly, Ya Molian called him again.
On hearing this, Zhe Jue lit up, assuming that his master has co to his senses and has decided not to risk himself. He turned around and looked at Ya Molian.
“Master, you…”
“Pass a ssage to Zhen Wu, tell him to co here imdiately,” Ya Molian ordered him.
“Yes, I will follow your order.”
Zhe Jue’s heart sank, realising that he could not persuade his master. He could only do his best to prepare everything, just in case.
…
In the space of the Golden Pearl,
Looking at the sentence that appeared in the jade mirror, Lin Caisang felt an impulse to throw away the damn pearl.
“What do they an by ‘if you do not complete the task, you can never accept another task’? How can there be such a thing?” She questioned angrily.
