I nodded, "Don't worry about me; since you've already warned me in advance, I'll certainly be careful."
"Wanwan, I... I have a rather difficult request."
Bai Zanhe's gaze flickered hesitantly, summoning a great deal of courage, "Ten Thousand Poison Hall is feared across the entire southwest; everyone is afraid of them. Today, when I mention them, you must absolutely not reveal that it was me who told you."
I had already seen that Bai Zanhe's fear of Ten Thousand Poison Hall was deeply ingrained. It was not easy for her to overcome her fear and tell me. I promised, "I won't blab everywhere and put you in danger. What you told me today, I will keep to myself and not tell a second person."
After returning, I discussed it with Yu Longting.
We planned to drive away; Xiao Li was frail and needed Beichen's constant care.
Yu Longting took on the task of driving, while I sat in the passenger seat to accompany him.
As for Old Taoist Zhang and the two Taoists, Ah San and Ah Si,
They were from the Celestial Master Sect and would definitely return to their own sect.
After saying goodbye, we went our separate ways.
The journey was on and off, taking about three days.
The RV was very comfortable, and Yu Longting was also a good driver.
Xiao Li and I almost didn't suffer at all. Taking advantage of some free time, I even made two outfits for Xiao Shenshen with Mysterious Silk.
One was a cute gentleman's outfit in Western style. Follow current novᴇls on novel·fiɾe·net
The other was a one-piece robe, which also looked adorable.
If I hadn't brought so little material, I'd also have liked to make a tiger-head hat and tiger-head shoes for the little guy.
Just these two items made Xiao Shenshen incredibly happy; he gave me several kisses on the cheek and said, "Young Madam, you are the kindest person to me in this world, besides my master."
"Shenshen, I want to ask you something," I said.
Xiao Shenshen perked up his little head, "What is it?"
"That time the weasel kidnapped you, when I tried to hold you, why did you bite me?" I'm not holding a grudge, just found it strange.
Xiao Shenshen clutched my wrist, his little expression one of not wanting to be abandoned, "That... that was because, your father, hurt the young master... well..."
This statement made even Yu Longting, who was driving, glance sideways.
My heart felt a slight pang, hurting me deeply.
This matter is not just a hurdle in the hearts of those who care about Yu Longting, it's a hurdle I also can't overcome.
Although I have nurtured Yu Longting's true body and tried hard to make amends,
The damage has been done, and it's difficult to change his half-dead, half-alive state.
Perhaps, I might spend my entire life unable to restore Yu Longting to the state he was in before my father harmed him.
"Have you heard of… Ten Thousand Poison Hall?" Yu Longting, after checking a message on his phone, suddenly asked me.
I didn't know if it was because of the content in the message or if he had already known this clue and was deliberately interrupting to divert my attention from reminiscing.
I nodded, "It's notorious; who in the Miao Border doesn't know of the Number One Evil Sect?"
"Acting, if you had heard about it a long time ago, you wouldn't have been clueless about who was behind Xiao Li's miscarriage," Yu Longting gripped the steering wheel with one hand, punishingly squeezed my thigh hard, "unless Bai Zanhe spoke to you just before she left, and you learned from her."
I didn't speak, after all, I had promised Bai Zanhe I wouldn't tell anyone.
But I bitterly thought to myself, it turns out Yu Longting was deliberately testing me. If I had just answered that I knew about Ten Thousand Poison Hall, it would have proved that Bai Zanhe had mentioned this matter to me before leaving.
He's too cunning. In front of him, I'm like someone who has run out of intelligence, no difference at all.
Caught by his accurate tricks every time.
Yu Longting glanced at me, his dark eyes holding an unspoken depth, "Knowing this early, why didn't you tell me sooner? We could have acted earlier to get even. My useless subordinates have only found out now. Don't you want to take revenge for Xiao Li?"
