Lanning nodded.

Xuan Mo placed the carefully selected little crane in his arms on the table. He picked up the book on the table and read it carefully. After a moment, he frowned and said, "You are just kidding!"

He had always been gentle and kind, rarely losing his temper. His gentle voice became several degrees colder, scaring Lan Ning so much that he dared not speak.

There is a saying that goes, most of the time, gentle people can be very scary when they get angry. Now Lan Ning has witnessed it.

"I know I was wrong." Lan Ning apologized pitifully.

Xuan Mo looked at Xuan Heng again, as if to say that this incident happened in the Regent's Palace and you have an unshirkable responsibility.

"But it is indeed a pleasant surprise." Xuan Heng picked up the little orange cat that was lying in Lan Ning's arms and threw it to Xuan Mo, "Check on his physical condition."

Xuan Mo: "......" What do you think of him? A doctor?

He looked down at the shivering kitten in his arms. It didn't look like it had any major problems. In fact, it was healthier than most newborns he had ever seen.

But this inner elixir...

Xuan Mo couldn't help but frowned, "There is no inner elixir."

Jing Ye, who was acting as an invisible man, was also surprised. How could an orc not have an inner elixir? He reached out and stroked Maozi's belly. His palm felt warm. He indeed felt that there was no inner elixir power flowing.

"It's very strange." Jing Ye put the little wolf in her arms on the table. She was a naughty little girl. She first howled at the kitten in Xuan Mo's arms, and then bit the wing feathers of the little crane.

Xiao He couldn't get down from the table and was chased around by the little wolf. Finally, he had to flap his wings and fly up to hide on Xuan Mo's shoulder, while the wolf missed a step and fell into Xuan Heng's arms.

Xuan Heng: “…”

He stared expressionlessly at the wolf cub that was biting his legs, a barely perceptible annoyance surfaced in his eyes. The little wolf seemed to have sensed something and kicked off its legs and jumped into Lan Ning's arms.

Lan Ning: “…” This felt almost like hugging a puppy. She couldn’t help but rub the wolf cub’s head, but the little guy struggled so hard that he rubbed her belly without noticing.

Before Lan Ning could react, the little wolf, feeling offended, immediately grabbed Lan Ning's hand and bit it. His sharp teeth quickly bit two bloody holes in the well-kept little hand.

Xuan Heng: “???” He hurriedly picked up the wolf cub from Lan Ning’s arms and threw it back into Jing Ye’s arms.

No one present wanted to see Lan Ning getting hurt. Even Jing Ye didn't expect that the little guy his mother picked was so naughty that he actually bit Lan Ning.

"The wolf is very wild, and you dare to rub her belly directly?" Xuan Heng's eyes changed with anger.

Lan Ning didn't feel much, she was not sensitive to pain, "It doesn't hurt." She looked at the little guy curled up in Jing Ye's arms, a little curious, "Is this for me?"

There is also the little crane watching the battle on Xuan Mo’s shoulder, which is also a very beautiful bird.

They had never brought small animals to the Regent's Palace before. Xuan Mo could understand it, after all, she had taken a kitten from her a few days ago, and Jing Ye...

Most likely, it was Yu Mo’s wife who asked him to send it!

Lan Ning was waiting expectantly for the two people's answers, not knowing that their attention was all on the back of Lan Ning's hand. If it were an ordinary woman, she would have screamed long ago.

[Xuan Heng's favorability +1, total favorability: 70. ]

[Xuan Mo's favorability +2, total favorability: 27. ]

[Jing Ye's favorability +3, total favorability: 32. ]

"I'm sorry, I should have disciplined him before bringing him to you." Jing Ye felt very guilty.

Lan Ning didn't care. "I scared her. It has nothing to do with you. Don't worry about this little injury. It really doesn't hurt."

Compared to her previous injuries, it was indeed small, which reminded the three men of her experience.

Why blame her? She was just a little princess who had just been reborn. It was normal for her not to know these things. It was also their fault. They should have told her about such dangerous things in advance.

Xuan Mo heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that the blood on Lan Ning's hand had stopped flowing. He said helplessly, "This is indeed a gift for you, but you must promise me that you will never use this dangerous method again."

Lan Ning's cat ears drooped immediately. "Uh... it seems to be useless. I found that after I used this method, I can no longer use the previous one."

Xuan Mo's face changed suddenly.

"I've checked her body. There's nothing wrong with her body. On the contrary, because of this method, her inner elixir has recovered a little. But she can't use our techniques, so it's still a question whether she can learn it." Xuan Heng said slowly. He stared at the back of Lan Ning's hand where blood was oozing out, wondering when it would heal.

The orcs have very good physical fitness and can recover quickly as long as the injuries are not fatal, but Lan Ning is an exception.

The old doctor who treated her said that after all his years of seeing patients, this was the first time he had seen such a strange body like hers. Both her meridians and inner elixir were in danger, but her mental state was extremely good.

Xuan Heng did not think much about it at the time, thinking that as long as there was no danger to her life, it would not be a big problem. The Regent's Palace had all kinds of precious medicinal herbs, so there was no need to worry about not being able to take care of Lan Ning.

But it has been almost three months, and her injuries have not improved. The method recorded in the book is indeed strange, but he has to admit that because of that method, Lan Ning's inner elixir has improved.

"Perhaps we can ask the doctor to change the medicine and try." Xuan Heng said so, and he explained what he had discovered. "One more thing...see if there is any change in the wolf?"

Jing Ye looked down at the little wolf in his arms. He didn't know what was wrong with the little guy. He curled up with his eyes closed. If he looked closely, he could see that he was trembling.

What happened next was something Jingye would never forget in his life. The little guy in his arms was slowly growing human hands and feet.

Soon it became like the kitten in Xuan Mo's arms, with ears and a tail, a half-beast, half-human that had not yet lost its orc features.

Jing Ye and Xuan Mo, who were used to seeing a lot of things, were stunned. "What is this...?"

Xuan Heng: "Any animal that gets close to her will become like this in a very short time. The orange cat took about an entire night. It seems that using blood directly will be faster, but I don't know how long it will last."

They had never heard that someone from the royal family with heterochromia could do such a thing.

A little blood can turn an ordinary animal into a human? This is unheard of, but think about it carefully, the princes and princesses of Wanjing have been well protected since birth, never in contact with wild animals, and never keep pets, so naturally no one has discovered it.

Xuan Mo's expression changed again and again, "The neighboring country has sent people to propose to Her Highness Furou three times. Before the matter is decided, this matter must not be known to others."

The last assassination had already caused rifts between Wan Jing and some small countries around it. If they knew that Lan Ning could do such a thing at this time, coupled with the person in the palace who was eyeing him covetously, it would probably be difficult to deal with.

This sentence reminded Xuan Heng that he was so busy guarding against Wan Jing that he forgot about other small countries.

"Then please keep it a secret." Xuan Heng turned his gaze to the two strange-looking cubs, his eyes unclear, "As for them..."
