“Are you saying that it can be cured today?” Seeing Su Qian nod her head confidently, Xiao Yan’s heart couldn’t help but pound. “I’ve consulted a renowned doctor before. He’s also a sixth-grade alchemist. He said that the poison inside me was a sixth-grade potent toxin. Moreover, it had already mutated in my body to a certain extent, so even a seventh-grade alchemist would be helpless. Qianqian, how could you cure me today?”
Xiao Yan did not want to be cured so quickly, which was why he asked Mo Chen to come and refine the toxicant.
Who would have thought that Qianqian not only could neutralize it but would also be able to do it in just a day?
Thinking of Mo Chen’s triumphant and self-a.s.sured demeanor after receiving his reward yesterday that a sixth-grade alchemist would definitely not be able to cure this potent toxin, Xiao Yan suddenly had the urge to clean up the household.
Su Qian thought that Xiao Yan didn’t trust her abilities, so she patiently explained, “Your Highness, you might not know this, but although I’m a sixth-grade alchemist, 1 first learned how to refine poison from my master before starting to learn how to treat illnesses and save lives. Therefore, it’s rare for me to come across a poison that poses a challenge unless it’s a peak seventh-grade or even an eighth-grade toxicant. That’s when it takes some effort on my part.”
Those who use poison are often skilled physicians because using poison is more difficult than treating and saving lives. That’s why Su Qian initially learned the art of poison before anything else.
Upon hearing Su Qian’s words, Xiao Yan suddenly thought of the famous poison physician from the Xuanyun Sect.
Lowering his gaze to hide the deep meaning in his starry eyes, Xiao Yan smiled. “Qianqian, you really surprise me all the time.”
He hadn’t expected that his soon-to-be wife, who had yet entered the household, possessed such great abilities.
“Your Highness, 1 still have many secrets.” Su Qian raised her eyebrows and said confidently.
“There’s no rush. In the future, I will have plenty of time to uncover your secrets,” Xiao Yan said meaningfully.
For some reason, Xiao Yan’s voice contained a deeper meaning. His magnetic voice echoed in the room, causing Su Qian’s heartbeat to accelerate.
Su Qian couldn’t help but clear her throat and quickly asked, “Your Highness, do you have a large basin here? One that can accommodate two people at once. I need to prepare a medicinal bath for you and after you soak in it, I will administer acupuncture. We need a large basin to perform the procedure properly.”
“There is a natural hot spring in my backyard. It can be used for bathing and is enough for the two of us.” Xiao Yan paused for a moment before looking at Su Qian meaningfully. “You should know which hot spring I’m talking about.”
Su Qian naturally knew that the hot spring this man was talking about was the one she accidentally fell into when she first came to the Ninth Prince’s Residence to steal the Phoenix Orchid.
Recalling what had happened back then, Su Qian couldn’t help but feel a little awkward. She cleared her throat and said, “Alright, let’s go there then.”
After calling Dong Yan over, Su Qian had him transfer Xiao Yan into the wheelchair. Then, the two of them brought Xiao Yan to the fragrant bath in the backyard.
The hot spring in broad daylight had a unique charm. Mist lingered around the hot spring, and the ground was covered with crystal-like glazed bricks. A high wall was erected around the hot spring. The hot spring was open-air, and the warm spring water kept rolling out waves of white fog. In the center of the spring water, a spring source was constantly bubbling and emitting hot spring water.
Xiao Yan looked at Su Qian and suddenly had a brilliant idea. “Qianqian, I can’t be wearing clothes in this hot spring. Help me change..”
