Your Highness, please stop chasing me.

An hour later, all the black vines on Wang Xuanze's body had faded away.

Mu Xue didn't rest during this time either. She used a small bottle made of Xuanbing (a type of ice) that she had brought to collect the remaining blackfin snake gallbladders.

This is a wonderful thing, a holy grail for detoxification.

Next, she took out a sixth-grade superior poison pill that she had prepared in advance and melted it into the little bit of snake gall that was left in the ice bowl.

The originally red poison pill immediately lost its color upon contact with the snake gall.

Mu Xue carefully carried the bowl of ice to Wang Xuanze's side. She lifted his head with one hand and held the bowl of ice to his mouth with the other, feeding him little by little without spilling a drop.

After Wang Xuanze drank all the medicine in the bowl, Mu Xue carefully wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief before letting him lie down.

At this moment, Wang Xuanze could sense everything happening around him, but he was unable to open his eyes.

He was pleased to feel Mu Xue's attentive care for him.

After feeding the medicine, Mu Xue turned around to continue fiddling with the medicinal herbs for the bath, unaware of the change in Wang Xuanze's heartbeat.

Wang Baiqi waited anxiously outside the door.

Cang Lin, on the other hand, leaned against the doorway calmly and unhurriedly.

Wang Xin'er pulled Wang Baiqi aside and whispered, "Dad, did you say the poison was cured? Why hasn't there been any news for so long?"

"Don't worry, we can definitely cure it." Wang Baiqi wasn't sure either, but there was no one else who could cure the blackfin snake's venom.

He had to convince himself to believe Mu Xue, and he had no choice but to believe Mu Xue.

At this moment, Wang Bo, the Wang family's steward, hurried over and bowed to Wang Baiqi, saying, "Master, gatekeeper, a distinguished guest has arrived."

Upon hearing this, Wang Baiqi waved his hand somewhat angrily and said, "What distinguished guest? I won't see him. Right now, no one is as important as my Ze."

"No, sir. You must see this person!" Uncle Wang said anxiously.

"Who?" Wang Baiqi asked.

“He said his surname is Ye,” Uncle Wang said.

Upon hearing this, Wang Baiqi was startled.

In Yunan City, the only person with the surname Ye is the old prince of the Jingwang Mansion, but the Wang family and the Jingwang Mansion have no connection whatsoever.

No, Yu Nancheng's surname is Ye. Among the people he received was the current regent, Ye Shangyuan.

Wang Baiqi knew that Ye Shangyuan was also in Yu Nan City because Ye Shangyuan had entered Yu Nan City under the guise of the Wang family's merchant caravan.

As the head of the Wang family, he naturally found out as well.

He hurriedly said, "Please come in quickly!"

When Cang Lin heard that the visitor's surname was Ye, the first person he thought of was the frail Ye Shangyuan.

He frowned unhappily and muttered, "They're like a persistent ghost, they've come all the way here."

However, he did not stop Wang Baiqi from inviting people in.

Given Ye Shangyuan's abilities, he is self-aware enough that his men can't stop him; he will find Mu Xue sooner or later.

Wang Baiqi turned to look at Cang Lin, then at Wang Xin'er, and finally said, "Distinguished guests have arrived at the manor, and we have no choice but to receive them. I'll be right back."

These words were clearly directed at Cang Lin, and he didn't expect Cang Lin to answer him.

Just as Wang Baiqi was about to turn and leave, Cang Lin spoke.

He said, "Ye Shangyuan is here to see the ancient doctor. You don't need to stop him, you can't stop him anyway. Just let him come."

Upon hearing this, Wang Baiqi was once again surprised; this official actually knew the Regent's name.

Judging from his tone, not only was he familiar with the Regent, but Mu Xue was also very familiar with the Regent.

He couldn't help but think that the backer he had found was quite powerful!

He quickly replied, "Yes, sir."

He walked towards the outer hall, feeling somewhat smug.

Wang Xin'er was terrified when she heard the words "Regent".

Although his Wang family was considered upper-class in the business world, they were simply no match for the Regent.

Unexpectedly, the Regent Prince's special trip to the Wang family today was to find the ancient doctor in the house.

She broke out in a cold sweat. Luckily, she hadn't gone too far, or she wouldn't even know how she died.

Wang Baiqi was probably also worried about Wang Xiner being alone with Cang Lin, so shortly after he left, he had Uncle Wang call Wang Xiner away as well.

Cang Lin did not react to this.

Before he came, Mu Xue had already told him that the detoxification process would take two hours if all went smoothly, so he wasn't in a hurry.

Cang Lin always blindly trusts Mu Xue.

It was this unconditional trust in Mu Xue that made her accept and trust Cang Lin.

Sometimes, trust is mutual.

When Wang Baiqi arrived at the hall, he indeed saw the Regent and Leng Quan waiting there.

He quickly stepped forward and knelt down to pay his respects.

"Greetings, Regent. What are your orders, Regent?" he said.

“No need for such formalities, Patriarch Wang,” Ye Shangyuan said.

Then he didn't say anything more.

At this moment, Leng Quan said, "I heard that the young master of the Wang family has been poisoned by the venom of the blackfin snake, and a divine doctor is treating him at the manor. So my lord thought of coming to see this divine doctor."

Upon hearing this, Wang Baiqi thought to himself, "Just as I thought."

He quickly replied, "Yes, we are fortunate to have this miraculous doctor here. He is currently treating the child for poisoning."

Leng Quan said, "If Patriarch Wang doesn't mind, my lord will go and take a look."

"No problem, no problem, Your Highness, please come in." Wang Baiqi wiped his sweat.

When Ye Shangyuan is silent, his aura is extremely powerful.

When Shangyuan stepped into the courtyard that night and saw Cang Shili, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Mu Xue was there.

Before coming, he was a little uneasy. He suddenly remembered that Mu Xue went to the Cangmang Mountains to get the gallbladder of the blackfin snake for Wang Xuanze of the Wang family.

So when he had searched for a whole day and night without any news of Mu Xue, he started to panic.

His impulsive visit to the Wang family with Leng Quan was one of the most reckless things he had done in all these years.

Clearly, he was truly panicked when he couldn't hear from Mu Xue.

Ye Shangyuan walked to the door, about to step up the stairs to push it open, when he was stopped by the fan in Cang Lin's hand.

Cang Lin said, "She said that no one is allowed to make a sound or disturb her before she comes out."

He kept his voice low, remembering that he couldn't disturb Mu Xue.

Ye Shangyuan stopped in his tracks and looked at Cang Lin, asking, "Did you block her whereabouts?"

Although it was a question, the tone was certain.

Cang Lin said disdainfully, "The famous Regent actually went so far as to block someone's door. Hmph, I admire him."

"You!" Leng Quan drew his sword and was about to step forward when Ye Shangyuan stopped him.

He said, "The Prince Jing's heir is also looking for her."

“I know. She has her nanny and maid with her, so it's not convenient for her to confront them directly,” Cang Lin said.

He always took Mu Xue's affairs very seriously.

Ye Shangyuan said, "As expected of the Lord of the Demon City, your information network is indeed very efficient."

"You flatter me, you flatter me, it's nothing!" Cang Lin's arrogant expression seemed to say, "I'm really that well-informed."

He wasn't surprised that Ye Shangyuan recognized him.

With his abilities, it's only a matter of time before he finds out he's the ruler of Shanghai.

Ye Shangyuan said calmly, "I won't ask why you came to my Xiyu Kingdom, but since you've chosen to stay by her side, don't do anything to hurt her. Otherwise, I won't let you leave Xiyu Kingdom."
