Mingchuan laughed: "What's with the sleep paralysis? That's all fake."

"This poison must have been in your body for a long time. It only started to slowly erupt after the incident in Tianhai City."

Mingchuan couldn't help but frown as he spoke. "I have to say, your enemy is truly cruel... After driving you away, he actually resorted to such dirty tactics to try to kill you."

"There's no way out for anyone."

He sighed and shook his head, which made Ling Yiyi and Ling's mother both tremble with fear.

Ling Yiyi grabbed Mingchuan's hand, her eyes sincere: "Mr. Ming, can you save my mother? I... I don't need you to save me. Just save my mother. I should still have a few years to live. After that, I will absolutely obey whatever you ask me to do!"

As she said this, Ling Yiyi actually wanted to kowtow to Mingchuan.

Before Ling Yiyi and Mingchuan could help her up, Ling's mother grabbed Ling Yiyi and spoke to Mingchuan with tears in her eyes.

"No... Xiaochuan... I know you are a person with great abilities, but these abilities are wasted on people like us too much, and we ourselves feel guilty."

"You don't need to save me. I'm already old. There's no point in saving me if I live alone in this world. But Yiyi is still young. She has a bright future to fight for."

"You save her, just save her alone!"

Ling's mother spoke so sincerely that Ling Yiyi's tears rolled down uncontrollably: "Mom, what are you talking about? It's meaningless for me to live alone in this world!"

Ling's mother patted her hands, looked at her face inch by inch with her weathered old eyes, and gently stroked the fine lines on Ling Yiyi's hands that had grown due to work in the past two years.

"Good boy, you must live well and live an excellent life."

"Mom doesn't want you to avenge us. All I want is for you to live a healthy and peaceful life..."

Ling's mother's voice was so moving that Ling Yiyi's tears flowed more and more.

Mingchuan felt helpless as he watched the mother and daughter pushing each other around.

He shook his head and said, "You two don't have to argue. It's just a minor illness. The doctors at the hospital can't do anything about it, but I have plenty of solutions."

"Both of them can survive!"

"What?" They both said in unison, extremely surprised.

Ling Yiyi looked at her mother's haggard appearance and hesitated, "But my mother has been in the hospital for all these years. We've spent a lot of money and received a lot of treatment, but she hasn't gotten any better..."

"This poison must be very tricky. If you save everyone, you will be in trouble, Mr. Ming."

"Stop." Mingchuan reached out and stopped the mother and daughter from chattering. "Okay, stop being so hypocritical. I said I can save her, and I can save her. Just consider it as a reward for our engagement."

"You two wait here for a moment. I'll go back and get some medicine and come over to treat you later."

After Mingchuan finished speaking, he stood up without saying anything else and strode towards the elevator, pressing the button for the parking lot on the first floor below.

Seeing him in such a hurry, Ling Yiyi and her mother looked at each other.

Ling's mother grabbed her daughter's hand and said worriedly, "Yiyi... is this really possible? Is he really Mingchuan?"

Ling Yiyi nodded: "He is!"

"But..." Ling's mother sighed, "We're already in such a bad state now. If we still tie him down with an engagement, wouldn't that be immoral? He should pursue his own happiness."

"We don't deserve him."

Ling Yiyi held her mother's hand back.

At first, she thought her mother would not be able to accept the cancellation of the engagement, so she did not think of telling her about it, for fear of affecting her mother's mood.

But at the moment, his mother's appearance actually added to his troubles.

After much thought, Ling Yiyi still felt that her mother had the absolute right to know.

She took a deep breath and told Ling's mother about the agreement they had made.

Mother Ling was stunned for a moment after hearing this, but soon relaxed and nodded, a look of relief on her face: "That's good... that's good... This way, we won't delay them, and it can be considered a good deed for us."

Ling Yiyi did not tell her mother that she needed Mingchuan to help the Ling family avenge itself.

At the moment, she simply held her mother's hand and gently soothed her, "So, since we've already decided to break off the engagement, this may be Mr. Mingchuan's own decision to compensate us. Don't refuse and just focus on healing."

Ling's mother pursed her lips into a slit, and after thinking for a long time, she slowly nodded in agreement.

"Okay, then I'll listen to you."

……

Mingchuan got out of the parking lot and drove all the way to Mr. Xu's place. After giving him some brief instructions, he asked Mr. Xu to get some medicine for him.

When Mr. Xu heard that the other party's identity was not simple, in order to please his master, he reluctantly took out a petal of Panlong Lotus that Mingchuan had given him from the drawer.

"Master, take this. It should be useful."

Mingchuan raised his eyebrows and teased, "Old man, don't you treasure this very much? Are you willing to take it out?"

Old Xu chuckled and scratched his head. "Master is willing to generously teach me so many medical skills. It is already a great honor for me. How can I be so selfish?"

"Okay." Mingchuan nodded. "Then follow me and I'll introduce you to a new poison."

Xu Lao's eyes lit up, "Okay! Let's go now!"

The two of them set off in a hurry and returned to the hospital again.

On the way, Mingchuan briefly told Mr. Xu about Ling's mother's situation.

Old Xu frowned as he listened. What kind of poison could cause both cerebral infarction and leukemia? This was too bizarre; he had never heard of it before.

Seeing the old man thinking like this, Mingchuan spoke up to answer his questions.

"This poison is called Golden Lion Poison Silk. It was originally a medicine used to strengthen the body. It's rare on the market and is only occasionally mentioned in the martial arts world."

"But if used in excessive amounts, it becomes highly toxic. The poison will flow through the bloodstream to the internal organs, where it will become a deadly poison and remain in the body, sucking away the original owner's vitality and spirit. The victim will suffer for ten years and slowly die."

"Furthermore, this poison is different from others. Other poisons bring complete relief at the moment of death, sending the person back to the underworld. However, this Golden Lion Poison Silk will, at the moment of death, allow the person to regain a state of health and a brief resurgence. Then, within the final two hours, it will unleash its intense toxicity, causing unbearable pain. The person's entire body will feel as if being torn apart by a lion, filled with despair."

"The last shred of consciousness will remain in the excruciating pain of agony."

Mingchuan couldn't help but shake his head after saying this: "Tsk tsk... The person who poisoned the Ling family was really very scheming. It's really too much."

Elder Xu also felt heavy-hearted after hearing this: "This method is too cruel!"
