Although Huang Lao himself was not a good person, he loathed the Temple of Angels.

He believed that the people of the Temple of Angels had no moral compass and were willing to do anything for money.

They also destroyed his medicinal herb fields.

Therefore, when he heard Shen Sixi say that he wanted to use the medicinal herbs that he had painstakingly cultivated to treat the wounds of the top assassin of the Angel Hall, Old Huang was very unhappy.

But he had already promised, so he couldn't just turn around and go back on his word.

Old Huang snorted, his face darkening, and turned to leave with his hands behind his back, saying, "Suit yourself!"

Out of sight out of mind.

Xiao Hua was a little surprised, as everyone knew that Old Master Huang treasured this medicinal herb garden the most.

They actually agreed to let Shen Sixi use the medicine from this garden to treat him?

He glanced at Shen Sixi.

However, since it happened to Shen Sixi, even the most illogical things become reasonable.

Shen Sixi was already picking herbs while strolling through the herb garden without any hesitation.

Old Huang turned back, still worried, and saw Shen Sixi picking out the expensive medicine without even blinking.

Old Huang's heart bled again, and he couldn't help but say, "It's just a minor external injury, using this is too extravagant."

These assassins are tough and resilient; they don't need such high-quality medicinal herbs.

Although assassins are all quite wealthy and have substantial commissions, they don't spend much money on medical treatment after being injured.

It's not that I'm reluctant to part with it, but that it's unnecessary.

Those who work in that line of work often find themselves with old wounds that haven't healed before being afflicted with new ones.

They always do nothing when they suffer minor injuries, just tough it out.

Long ago, the Lord of the Angel Temple also came to Elder Huang for treatment.

The Palace Master's injuries were much more serious than Xiao Hua's current injuries, and Elder Huang was reluctant to use such good medicinal herbs on him.

Shen Sixi didn't even look at him: "This will help you recover faster."

Old Huang said with heartache, "Oh dear, those assassins brave wind and rain, this little injury is nothing."

Shen Sixi: "He's not an assassin anymore; he's with me now."

Old Huang: "I know he's not an assassin anymore. What I mean is, he's been an assassin for so many years, he's used to being covered in wounds. These little injuries are nothing to him, why bother?"

Shen Sixi: "Being used to being covered in wounds doesn't mean you won't feel pain when you're injured."

Old Huang was stunned for a moment, and so was Xiao Hua.

Old Huang looked at Shen Sixi with a complicated expression and said, "You treat him quite well."

Shen Sixi replied matter-of-factly, "She's mine, of course."

Old Huang fell silent, thinking to himself, "This Miss Shen seems so carefree, but I never expected her to be not only so insightful but also so generous and loyal."

Then he realized that Shen Sixi was using the medicinal herbs he had painstakingly cultivated to show her generosity, and his face darkened again.

It's just a minor external injury, how many medicinal herbs is Shen Sixi going to waste!

Old Huang couldn't bear to watch any longer, so he turned and left to develop an antidote using the formula given to him by Shen Sixi.

Xiao Hua stood behind Shen Sixi, watching Shen Sixi casually arrange the medicinal herbs.

This was the first time someone had specially prepared a prescription for him to treat his injury.

The temple master never cared whether he was injured.

Xiaohua felt conflicted and awkwardly said, "Thank you."

Shen Sixi heard this and waved her hand dismissively: "Don't talk about that. If you have nothing better to do, come and help me."

Xiao Hua quietly stepped forward to help Shen Sixi.

……

With the formula provided by Shen Sixi, Huang Lao quickly developed the antidote.

He was initially excited, then anxious, unsure whether the antidote would work this time.

Having failed too many times, he had long lost his former confidence.

A little embarrassed, Old Huang took the prepared medicine to Shen Sixi. Shen Sixi had already finished collecting the herbs and was now leisurely sitting in Old Huang's rocking chair, directing Xiao Hua to process and prepare the medicine.

Xiao Hua's hands were only good for killing; she'd never done such delicate work before. She was completely flustered.

Old Huang cursed inwardly again: What a waste!

He looked away and, holding the antidote, approached Shen Sixi: "Miss Shen, take a look at this medicine..."

Shen Sixi didn't get up, but swayed as she took the medicine, sniffed it, and handed it back to Old Huang: "Go try it."

Her calm and composed demeanor inspired Mr. Huang, and his previously unsettled heart was inexplicably calmed down.

Old Huang put away the medicine and said solemnly, "I will go and deliver the medicine to that child now. Once he recovers, I will repay him handsomely when I return."

Old Huang was also caught up in the moment. Because he had successfully developed the antidote, he forgot that he had already given Shen Sixi a thank-you gift.

Shen Sixi said nonchalantly, "No need, it's nothing."

Old Huang was even more moved and insisted, "No, Miss Shen, you don't know how much this means to me. I would be willing to give you the whole garden."

That child wasn't an ordinary child; he had some other connection with him.

Shen Sixi smiled slightly, "Saving lives is the priority. We'll talk about it after the results are out."

Old Huang: Yes, I'll go deliver the medicine right now.

Old Master Huang: "I would appreciate it if Miss Shen could look after this garden for me until I return."

Shen Sixi said slowly, "Go without worry."

Old Huang took the medicine, turned around, and walked away quickly.

Shen Sixi suddenly remembered something and asked Xiaohua, "By the way, where are Yu Chaodi and Shen Tu Rong?"

At that time, the group of them visited the spice garden together.

As we walked, we somehow got separated.

Xiaohua frowned: "I didn't see them."

In the spice garden, Little Flower always had a bad feeling, you could say it was a killer's intuition; he always sensed danger.

Feeling uneasy, he stayed close to Shen Sixi and paid no attention to Shen Tu Rong and Yu Chaodi.

Later, when the people from the Temple of Angels appeared, Xiaohua had even less time to pay attention to the two of them.

Shen Sixi stopped swaying and sat up straight.

Her phone had been broken in a fight not long ago, so she instructed Xiaohua, "Xiaohua, call them."

Xiaohua doesn't have a cell phone at all.

He offered to go find them.

"That's fine then." Shen Sixi nodded.

She always felt that something was strange about what happened in the Spice Garden, as if someone had deliberately designed it, and it might even be related to the Temple of Angels.

Xiaohua put down what she was holding and quickly slipped away.

Shen Sixi pondered for a moment, then leaned back.

It's fine if Yu Chaodi and Shen Tu Rong are alright, but if something happens to them, she will definitely cause trouble for the Angel Temple.

She wouldn't simply let the matter drop so easily, now that the Angel Temple was hunting her and Xiaohua down again.

After a long time, Old Huang returned.

Old Huang was extremely excited and overjoyed: "It's a success! It's a success! Xiao Qi saw it!"

"That medicine really worked!"

Old Huang has saved so many lives, but this is the first time he has been so happy to cure someone's eyes.

His inner conflict has finally been resolved.

Old Master Huang looked at Shen Sixi and said, “Miss Shen, I said before that I would reward you handsomely when I returned. I mean what I say. Whatever you want, just ask, and I will give it to you, even this garden!”

Speaking of the garden, Old Huang still felt a pang of regret.

"I don't want your garden."

I wanted it before, but I've changed my mind now.

Shen Sixi said with a smile, "One shouldn't be too greedy. Help me get my hands on the Angel Palace."
