Chapter 630: Persist in Doing It
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After Mo Shen stabilized, he refused to let Jiang An find the grass no matter what. They had only found such a thing a few hundred years ago. It could almost be considered a legendary herb.
Even the Mo family did not record this herb. It was obvious how difficult it was to obtain it.
There were naturally many magical herbs in the world, but not all of them could be recorded by the Mo family. The reason was that it was too difficult to obtain.
Although there was no lack of people who had found and verified the medicinal properties of these herbs, they had paid a huge price. Many people had even exchanged their lives for a herb.
Even if herbs could save lives, it was not worth it. The ancestors of the Mo family did not want to see such a thing happen again and did not allow the Mo family’s herb record to record such herbs.
Mo Shen knew that his ancestor’s decision had its considerations. If he wanted to find the grass, not only would he have to expend a huge amount of manpower and resources, but there would also be people who would sacrifice themselves in the search. He couldn’t bear the consequences.
However, Jiang An refused to give up. She sat on the carpet and looked at Mo Shen. “Brother Mo Shen, since there’s such an opportunity, we have to give it a try. If we find it, you don’t have to worry about the poison.”
Jiang An really didn’t want Mo Shen to continue enduring all this, and didn’t believe that he was fine. The poison in his body would definitely consume his lifespan.
In her opinion, Mo Shen should not be like this. Mo Shen was the best person in the world. He should enjoy the best life and not be tortured by illness.
Mo Shen shook his head. “An’an, even the Zou family hasn’t been able to find a second grass in hundreds of years. It can be seen how harsh the conditions for growth are. Moreover, this herb might have gone extinct long ago. There’s no need for you to focus on finding herbs. You should live your own life.”
Jiang An had already made up her mind. It was not something that Mo Shen could persuade her with just a few words. She stood up and said, “Brother Mo Shen, no matter what you say today, I have to find the frozen grass. I have to do it even if I have to spend my entire life.”
With that, Jiang An turned around and left. She didn’t want to argue with Mo Shen anymore. She would do what she had already thought of, even if no one supported her.
Mo Shen was at a loss. When Jiang An’s figure disappeared from his sight, he said, “An’an is different. She’s more self-reliant than before.”
“Back then, An’an lived in an unsafe environment. Those people from the Tan family kept bullying her. In order to protect herself, she could only choose to be obedient, so many people thought that she was weak. Now, she’s the real her,” Zou Bai said with admiration.
Mo Shen smiled. “That’s good too. An’an can protect herself by becoming like this. She doesn’t have to rely on anyone.”
Mo Shen was really happy. Before he found An’an, he was worried day and night. During the days when he was unconscious, he was immersed in a dream. In his dream, An’an was living a miserable life, calling his name helplessly.
Therefore, after Mo Shen found An’an, he decided to stay by her side. If anything happened, he could protect An’an immediately.
However, relying on the protection of others would not last long. It was best if An’an could become stronger herself.
“Don’t underestimate her. She’s the heir of the Jiang family and the future head of the family.” Zou Bai’s tone was very proud.
Mo Shen smiled. “So I can’t stop her at all, right?”
“That’s right.” Zou Bai nodded. “Let her do it. Regardless of success or failure, she won’t regret it.”
After Jiang An returned to her room, she called Zou Er in and asked, “You’ve been in the Zou family for so many years. You know the internal structure of the secret guards very well, right?”
“I followed Master to carry out the shadow guard reform. I’m very clear about the current composition,” Zou Er said honestly.
Jiang An thought for a moment. “I won’t ask you about the details, but what do I need to build a secret guard organization?”
This shocked Zou Er. Building a secret guard organization was not a small matter. He did not know what to say or not to say. At this moment, he missed Zou Yi terribly.
After thinking about it, he said, “Why do you want to form a secret guard? I’ll do my best to protect you. You’ve long been recognized by the Zou family’s secret guard as the matriarch.”
“But this is far from enough.” Jiang An’s gaze was firm. “You’re still members of the Zou family. I need a secret guard that belongs to the Jiang family. They can only listen to me and protect the Jiang family. Only then can I feel at ease.”
Zou Er was a little uneasy.. Could it be that Miss Jiang wanted to break up with his master?
