Chapter 151 - Came Knocking (1/2)
Holding onto the bottle, the second elder’s hand was shaking. Xiao Huan Pill. And it was not just a single pill, but a whole bottle full of them!
He had never seen the Tian Luo Pill before, but the smell allowed him to recognize it as an extraordinary item. However, he once had the fortune of seeing the Xiao Huan Pill. One Xiao Huan Pill was already a holy item that could heal injuries. But now, he was holding a whole bottle! Little Chuxi had actually gave him a whole bottle of Xiao Huan Pills to be eaten like jelly beans!
If he followed Ling Chuxi’s instructions and took that many pills, it would be against all natural laws if his internal injuries did not heal!
“After a few more acupuncture sessions, there will not be any problems,” said Ling Chuxi confidently, touching her own chin.
The second elder’s expression suddenly turned oddly serious as he raised his head to look right at her. “Little Chuxi.”
“Huh? What’s the matter?” she asked, stunned.
“I don’t care where you obtained these pills, but you must promise me to not tell anyone else.”
The second elder gripped the porcelain bottle in his hands tightly, anxiousness and worry written all over his face. Whether it was the Tian Luo Pill or the Xiao Huan Pill, if either were made known to anyone, it was not necessarily a good thing for Ling Chuxi or the Ling family.
Especially for Ling Chuxi. It was definitely not a good thing for her if people found out.
Seeing the deep worry in the second elder’s eyes, Ling Chuxi felt a sense of warmth wash over her. She nodded and said with a smile, “Second Elder, don’t worry. I know what should be done.”
“That’s good.” The second elder let out a long sigh of relief as he lay his worries to rest.
…
After exiting the second elder’s house, Ling Chuxi saw that Lan Xinyu was still waiting for her outside. Ling Yichen had also arrived.
As soon as he saw Ling Chuxi come out, he immediately approached her and asked, “How is the second elder?”
“He’s not in critical condition anymore.”
