Many children, many blessings; a stunningly beautiful wife is given to you right from the start.

Will I not survive tonight?

These five words left Lin Mo a little confused.

But he immediately realized what was happening.

The system panel also displays the treatment plan.

[It is recommended to use "Nine Yang Snow Melting Pill" or a pure Yang pill of equivalent quality to suppress it...]

Lin Mo's mind raced, his consciousness heading straight to the [Hundred Herbs Garden] interface of the Mountain and River Hegemony Map.

On the map, the screen switches.

In the Hundred Herbs Garden, in a medicinal field filled with a faint spiritual aura, Jiang Zhiwei was squatting on the ground, one hand supporting her cheek, the other idly pulling weeds.

She gave a delicate yawn, rubbing her sleepy eyes. Her lazy yet adorable appearance would have prompted Lin Mo to tease her a bit under normal circumstances.

But Lin Mo had no mood to appreciate the morning scenery of this nurturing little medicine boy at this moment.

He immediately pulled up the catalog of elixirs from the Hundred Herbs Garden and began frantically searching through it.

【Rejuvenation Pill】, 【Qi Nourishing Powder】, 【Wound Healing Medicine】...

The names of a row of pills flashed before his eyes.

No.

still none.

I flipped through the catalog almost to the bottom, but still couldn't find the recipe for "Nine Suns Melting Snow Pill".

Lin Mo's brows furrowed more and more tightly.

Is there really no hope?

To watch helplessly as that little girl dies right in front of you?

He can't.

Even if they were just strangers who met by chance, he couldn't get over that hurdle in his heart.

However, just as he was about to close the directory and forcibly take the person back to Blackwind City to find another way, a name caught his eye.

【Red Sun Burning Heaven Pill】.

Below the formula is a line of smaller print: This elixir gathers the most yang fire of heaven and earth, possessing the power to burn the sky and boil the sea; it is the ultimate pure yang elixir.

It was followed by a warning: "The medicine is extremely potent. Ordinary people should use it with caution. Otherwise, you will be cremated on the spot, and we will not be responsible."

The name and the description are so cringeworthy they practically overflow the screen.

But the last phrase, "the ultimate in pure yang elixirs," made Lin Mo stop.

The ultimate pure yang elixir...

That's it!

Lin Mo's consciousness instantly left the Hundred Herbs Garden, and his gaze returned to the dimly lit hut.

At this moment, the little girl who had been forcibly fed the pills seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep again.

But her tightly furrowed brows and pale face clearly indicated that she was enduring immense pain.

We can't delay any longer.

Lin Mo stepped forward and stood in front of Bai Zhi.

"Pick her up and come with me quickly."

His words were brief and urgent.

However, Bai Zhi, who was immersed in sadness and helplessness, was stunned when she heard Lin Mo's words.

She looked up, her face, covered by a fake scar, filled with confusion, which quickly turned into deep vigilance.

What does this man want to do?

Taking advantage of someone's misfortune?

She instinctively hugged her daughter even tighter.

Lin Mo noticed her wariness and understood her feelings at that moment.

If a strange man suddenly barged into your home claiming he could cure a terminal illness, your first reaction would be to assume he was a human trafficker.

So Lin Mo patiently explained in as calm a tone as possible.

"Just think of me as an unparalleled healer."

"I can see her symptoms. She has a congenital cold constitution, and was later forcibly injected with the Xuanbing Gu."

"The conflict between the two has caused the cold poison to attack the heart, and now the patient is in critical condition."

Lin Mo looked at the information given by Liuli Tong and spoke to Bai Zhi sentence by sentence.

"We need to use the 'Nine Yang Melting Snow Pill,' a pure Yang medicine, to suppress her now, otherwise she won't survive the night. Come with me now."

These earth-shattering words sent a jolt through Bai Zhi's body.

She froze completely.

Black Ice Gu...

Congenital cold pulse...

Nine Suns Melting Snow Elixir...

These are words that ordinary people would never know.

unless……

"Who exactly are you?"

Bai Zhi's eyes, which had initially been merely wary, instantly became sharp as knives.

The way she looked at Lin Mo was no longer that of a stranger, but that of a vengeful ghost from hell.

Lin Mo was completely unprepared for Bai Zhi's reaction after hearing his words.

"Whoosh!"

A flash of extremely fast, cold light streaked past.

The cicada-wing dagger that had been hidden in her sleeve appeared instantly in Bai Zhi's hand, its tip steadily pointing at Lin Mo's throat.

"You're from the Ten Thousand Gu Tower!"

Her voice no longer trembled, but was filled with a chilling coldness and determination.

"The Ten Thousand Gu Tower?"

Mo was taken aback by her reaction.

He then realized that he had probably stepped on a huge landmine for the other party.

This woman's past is indeed not simple.

She and the little girl named Nannan in her arms are hiding a huge secret.

But now is not the time to dwell on that; saving lives is the priority.

We must bring them back to Black Wind City as soon as possible so that Jiang Zhiwei can make the elixir.

"Young lady, you've misunderstood..."

"Don't move!"

Bai Zhi didn't give Lin Mo a chance to explain at all.

Seeing that he was about to step forward, she suddenly flipped her wrist.

The translucent dagger that had been pointing at Lin Mo instantly changed direction, its cold tip gently pressed against the heart of the daughter in his arms.

"If you take one more step, I'll pierce her icy heart! All the painstaking efforts your Myriad Gu Tower has made over the years will vanish like a bubble!"

Bai Zhi's voice carried a kind of madness, a desire to destroy everything in the process.

Lin Mo's steps were frozen in place.

He watched Bai Zhi's frantic behavior and felt a chill run down his spine.

This woman is probably serious.

She would rather kill the child herself than let her fall into the hands of the so-called "Ten Thousand Gu Tower".

Things have gotten out of hand.

Lin Mo felt a sense of helplessness.

So, she really would resort to violence. She wouldn't listen to a single word of explanation.

The little girl's breathing on the kang (a heated brick bed) was becoming increasingly faint.

Time was ticking away, second by second.

We can't afford to waste any more time.

Lin Mo slowly raised his hands, making a gesture of surrender, and squeezed out a helpless expression on his face.

"Okay, okay, I won't move. And please don't act rashly. I'm leaving now."

As Lin Mo spoke, he retreated extremely slowly.

Bai Zhi's eyes were fixed on him, her hand holding the short knife without wavering in the slightest.

Lin Mo retreated step by step from the inner room.

They then gradually retreated from the outer room.

Finally, he opened the courtyard gate and left the courtyard.

"Squeak..."

The dilapidated wooden door was slowly opened to Bai Zhi's ears.

"Click".

That was the sound of a door closing.

The tense atmosphere only eased slightly after they heard Lin Mo leave.

Bai Zhi's heart, which had been hanging in her throat, finally felt half relieved.

But she still dared not relax in the slightest.

It's been exposed.

It's no longer safe here.

We must leave immediately.

She held her burning-hot daughter tightly in her arms, stood up, and prepared to pack her bags immediately and flee this place of trouble.

However, in the very moment she turned around, when her mind was most relaxed, she was caught off guard.

A barely perceptible gust of wind swept past her from behind like a ghost.

Bai Zhi didn't even have time to react.

She felt a numbness in the back of her neck, her vision went black, and her consciousness plummeted into an endless abyss.

Lin Mo appeared behind her like a ghost, catching her as she collapsed. He glanced at Nannan, whose breathing was barely audible on the bed, and only one thought remained in his mind.

We must get back to Blackwind City immediately, there's no time to lose!
