The discussion that day had left Zhang Liangshan dumbstruck. When dusk fell, Gu Daiyan could only hear the laughter of a child coming from outside as she leaned on Duan Chenxuan's legs, feeling drowsy.
After Duan Chengxuan heard Gu Danyan's words, he only told him the details of the Zhu siblings' sheepskin scroll. In regards to this, Gu Danyan only yawned lazily, ”If doing this can extend one's lifespan to two hundred years, then I think it's possible, but if you're immortal, then it's not right at all.”
”What did you find?” Duan Cheng Xuan rubbed her head and was slightly addicted.
Blood exchange can't extend your lifespan, but it can extend the lifespan of your internal organs. In addition, I found that there are still many herbs here that can help your skin improve, or treat your internal organs, if you also want to live until you're 160 years old, from now on, eat less meat and train your inner strength to protect yourself. Gu Danyan opened his eyes a little, but closed them again unaccustomed to it: ”Are the black markings on my body better now?”
”Better.” Duan Cheng Xuan's fingertips brushed the back of her neck.
Actually, the black lines had already crawled out, but Gu Daiyan could not see it.
However, why did he have to tell Duan Ling Tian that it was wishful thinking to want to live to the age of 160? However, matters like immortality and immortality were forbidden areas that humans could not easily cross. As long as anyone stepped in, it would be unknown how much they would change the entire world.
She was glad she was a doctor, not a mad scientist.
Otherwise, she wouldn't even consider humanity at this point because the giant fruit in front of her was already ripe and all its secrets were about to be uprooted. In these past few hundred years, the crazed people who pursued immortality were already close to the truth.
Then she had also found her ultimate purpose here — to turn this truth into a scam.
”Where are you from?” Duan Chengxuan suddenly asked.
”The Yun Ancestor and I came from the same place. It's just that she wasn't good at guessing people's hearts. He happily shared her beauty with others, just like a child, and in the end, it ended up in a painful result.” Gu Danyan couldn't help but be curious if that ancestor had also discovered the secrets within. He only purely hoped that someone would be able to unravel these mysteries.
Duan Chengxuan smiled lightly. ”None of us here will let go of our children.”
”I didn't let the child go. It was just for his safety. What if my sweat was poisonous too?” Gu Daiyan impatiently patted Duan Chengxuan's thigh. ”When are you planning to return to Navy Tide?”
”Wait until you've fully recovered.”
”It's too late. It's just a trip back to Navy Tide. Nothing will happen to me.”
”Listen to me about this.” Duan Cheng Xuan pressed down on her head.
Gu Liuyan's body moved. She knew that it was already difficult for her to resist Duan Chengxuan, so she could only close her eyes and fall into a deep sleep.
Moreover, the people in the dream didn't know that Duan Chengxuan's fingertip had already slipped onto her palm. Even the black veined patterns had climbed up there, and the speed of this thing was even faster than one would imagine.
Hong Xiao quietly walked in after the sky had turned dark. ”The Scarlet Jade Pond is very hard to find, but the treasure that Cheng Shan brought back is already in Zhang Liangshan's possession. In a few days, he should be able to get some medicine.”
Duan Chengxuan nodded, then carefully placed Gu Daiyan's head back on the pillow and continued to speak. ”Who's Sang Ning over there?”
”Third Prince.” Hong Xiao's expression changed as well. ”Didn't you tell His Highness that we were surrounded and annihilated by the Black Cloaked Army?”
”Don't worry her for now. She'll find out when the time is right.” Duan Chengxuan helplessly helped Gu Qingyan arrange her hair and took out the hand that was pressing down on her lower abdomen. He continued, ”The more you tell her, the more suspicious she becomes, so just let her be.”
