Su Biyue knew that she would not easily agree so she changed the topic: "Little Sister is a smart person, and knows that in this world, there are no absolute friends, and no absolute enemies. In the future, how can little sister guarantee that I won't be able to help you?"
The meaning behind her words was very simple. It was, after becoming friends with me, I will have ways to help you in the future.
Su Xiruo nodded, hearing her be honest, his heart actually felt a little better, "Alright, since that's what you think, then I'll be friends with you."
She was just a friend in cooperation, that was something she could clearly distinguish.
Seeing that she had agreed, Su Biyue was all smiles: "Since that is the case, I will not disturb my sister anymore. Tomorrow, I will definitely get someone to deliver a thousand gold taels on time."
"Yes." Su Xiruo did not have the intention to send her off and watched her leave.
After Su Biyue left, Mu Jin came out from her sleeves and took human form.
"Mu Jin, why are you in human form again?" Su Xiruo kept having the feeling that this guy had been in human form way too frequently recently. She almost forgot about his identity as a spirit beast.
"I suddenly feel like being a person is pretty fun." Mu Jin happily sat down on his seat, "Master, who was that woman just now?
Su Xiruo then explained to him: "Hmm, this kind of woman is too scheming, in the future, you just need to remember, don't come into contact with this kind of woman."
"Oh, I remember." Mu Jin very simply nodded.
"Alright, you have to go out now. Stay in this room and don't go anywhere else. Do you understand?" Su Xiruo still couldn't quite let him go.
When he heard that Master was going out, Mu Jin was immediately a little unhappy. "Master, where are you going?
"I can't bring you with me this time, but I promise you that I will be back very soon." When Su Xiruo thought about returning to the Poison Sect, he decided not to bring Mu Jin along.
After all, with his foster father's strength, he would definitely be able to tell that Mu Jin was a High Ranked Spirit Beast, and he had always been infatuated with this High Ranked Spirit Beast's Beast Core.
Therefore, for the sake of safety, he decided not to take the risk.
"I want to go with you. If you encounter any danger, I can protect you." Mu Jin was unwilling to let it go, as if he felt that he was about to be abandoned by his master.
"Are you still going to listen to me?" Su Xiruo smelled it seriously.
Mu Jin slowly released his hand. Although he felt wronged, he was worried that she would be angry, so he could only agree. "Alright then, then … Master, you must be careful! "
"Yes." Su Xiruo stood up, and seeing that Qing Yuan was just about to enter, she said to her, "Qing Yuan, it's enough for me to go back to Poison Sect by myself, you stay here with Mu Jin, remember, do not let Mu Jin come find me!"
"Yes, xiaojie, rest assured!"
Then, Su Xiruo turned to look at Mu Jin, and turned to leave the room.
"Big Sister Qing Yuan, what kind of place is Poison Sect?" Mu Jin curiously asked. If Master goes, will there be any danger? "
This name did not sound like an ordinary place.
For a moment, Qing Yuan did not know how to explain things to him. "It's just a place to be named, master will be fine.
"I want to go out for a walk." Mu Jin was unable to sit still for even a moment, "Sister Qing Yuan, please let me out!"
"That won't do. Miss has already instructed, you can't run around, I …" Before Qing Yuan could finish his words, Mu Jin lightly tapped him on the shoulder and he fainted.
Mu Jin carried Qing Yuan onto the bed and said embarrassedly: "Sister Qing Yuan, I can only let you down for a bit. I have to secretly follow master, if not, I won't be able to relax, I won't be able to sit still!"
After explaining everything, Mu Jin did not delay any further and turned into a small bird, flying out of the window and leaving the courtyard.
Poison Sect.
A gloomy atmosphere blew over everyone. Despite the extravagance of the palace, there were not many people guarding it. As soon as they walked in, they could feel a gloomy and cold aura emanating from it.
"Young master." All of the bodyguards on the way bowed to Su Xiruo. She was alone, as she arrived at a remote little hall.
"Young master, High Lord has been waiting for you inside for a long time. Please quickly go in!"
"Yes." Su Xiruo nodded and carefully knocked on the door, "Father, can I come in?"
"Come in." The old man's voice was sonorous and powerful.
With the permission of his foster father, Su Xiruo pushed open the door and entered the palace. The palace wasn't big, and emitted a faint fragrance, but it was repressed and sinister.
He was dressed in black, and he even coughed twice from time to time. He looked a bit haggard, and said, "Xiruo, you're finally back. Come, quickly come to father's side."
Su Xiruo then went forward, "Foster father …"
"How many times have I told you? Just call me father. In your heart, am I not comparable to your father?" The old man smiled, but his tone sounded kind.
"Father …" After a long while, Su Xiruo finally called out these two words. He felt that he was probably not used to it, "Father treats me as if I'm a mountain; in my heart, I have long since treated you as my biological father."
He was the one who saved him from danger and allowed him to cultivate the Spiritual Strength. For the past year, he treated like his own daughter and even intended to teach him the art of cultivation.
"Have you finished your own things? "Cough, cough …"
"That's right." Su Xiruo hurriedly asked with concern, "Father, what's wrong, are your injuries still recovering?"
She remembered that when she left the Poison Sect, her father had been heavily injured because he had cultivated in the devil way. She didn't expect that even after one or two months, he still hadn't gotten any better.
"Sigh, Xi Ruo, this internal injury of mine probably won't heal up that easily." Poison Sovereign sighed helplessly, "If I can't get treatment, I'm afraid... His life won't be long. "
"Is it that serious?" Su Xiruo was a little worried and helped to check his pulse. He immediately felt that Poison Sovereign's pulse was extremely abnormal, as if it could break at any time.
In other words, his father's life could be in danger at any moment!
Thus, she asked, "Is there any way to treat your injuries?"
"There is a prescription within. However, the medicinal herbs required are too precious and I am unable to obtain it." Poison Sovereign held Su Xiruo's hand, "Forget about it, Xiruo, I'm already old enough to live but this time, I'll resign myself to fate. If I really die, I'll be at ease if you help me manage this Poison Sect."
"Father, don't say that!" Su Xiruo immediately cut him off, "If you need any medicinal ingredients, just tell me, even if I have to go to heaven, I will think of a way to find them and give them to you!"
The debt of gratitude she owed her father was as heavy as a mountain, so no matter what, she had to think of a way to heal her father's internal injuries!
"This is the medicinal formula from the Venerable Alchemist." Poison Sovereign passed the prescription to Su Xiruo.
Su Xiruo took a rough look at the prescription. Without exception, all of them were medicinal ingredients of Sixth Rank and above. Amongst them, the two most difficult to obtain were the Seventh Rank medicinal ingredients, the Heart Refining Orchid and the Yin Attribute's Seventh Rank Beast Core!
Seventh Rank medicine could be said to be an existence that was as rare as phoenix feathers or qilin horns, not to mention any specific medicine!
And a Seventh Rank Spirit Beast, was to hunt a High Ranked Spirit Beast which was equivalent to the strength of a human Spirit Sovereign, so the difficulty could be imagined!
Moreover, the attributes of normal spirit beasts were divided into metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. The Yin Attribute and Yang attributes were all extremely rare attributes!
Looking for the Seventh Rank Spirit Beast of the Yin Attribute, then defeating it and taking its Beast Core sounded like a fantasy.
"This prescription …" "It really is a bit difficult." Su Xiruo sighed lightly.
"It's actually not that hard to say." Poison Sovereign seemed to have his own ideas.
