The villain, Xiao Nanliang, caused the female lead excruciating pain.

"To what extent can your method achieve this? And how long can you maintain it?"

Li Chengping wanted to confirm it with his own eyes.

But Su Qi shook his head.

"This is a way to overdraw one's life force. With my current life force, once it is activated, it can probably only last for one or two days, and then I will die from the depletion of my life force."

"As for what level it can achieve, I can't make a comparison without any reference."

At this point, Su Qi looked at Mu Xinglan with a puzzled expression.

"Aunt Mu, why can't I feel that power in you?"

“I…I sensed that Feng’er was in danger, so I used a secret method to transfer the power of the elixir to him.”

Mu Xinglan seemed somewhat insecure.

It's understandable to save one's own son, but now that son is being controlled by a mysterious organization.

Mu Xinglan was a little worried that she might have been tricked.

Su Qi's answer gave her a definite answer.

"Tsk... This is probably the work of that mysterious organization again. They may need the power of elixirs to make up for the physiological defects of the artificial humans."

Upon hearing that she had given away her greatest asset to the enemy for nothing, Mu Xinglan staggered and her vision blurred.

Su Qi quickly reached out to help him up.

"It's alright, Aunt Mu. They shouldn't make a move so soon. This force is still with Ye Feng."

"Yes, yes, if we can get it back in time, the mysterious organization won't succeed."

Li Chengping quickly joined in the persuasion.

In his view, since Mu Xinglan had a way to remotely transmit power to Ye Feng, she should also have a way to take it back.

Mu Xinglan's expression changed, and she glanced suspiciously at the two people in front of her. Just as she was about to say something, Su Qi spoke first.

“I know this secret technique. From the moment Aunt Mu gave away her power, she lost the initiative. Now, if she wants to take it back, she has to do it in front of Ye Feng.”

As Su Qi spoke, he secretly gave Mu Xinglan a meaningful look.

Mu Xinglan naturally knew what it meant. Now that the power of the immortal medicine was no longer in her body, the Li Clan could not use her to refine medicine, and they absolutely could not take it back.

However, that wasn't what Mu Xinglan was thinking about just now.

For a fleeting moment, she suspected that Su Qi and Li Chengping were in cahoots.

Suspecting that the two were conspiring to trick her into retrieving the power of the immortal medicine from Ye Feng.

But seeing how eager Su Qi was to cover for her, she felt guilty.

I had actually been doubting this child just now.

She had already sensed his bloodline, yet she still doubted him; that was truly wrong of her.

"Indeed, I cannot retrieve the power of the elixir now. Unless you let me out to see Feng'er, there is nothing I can do."

This was clearly impossible, so Li Chengping had no choice but to bring Ye Feng over.

But after hearing Su Qi's information, he felt that it might be a bit difficult, after all, Ye Feng had that mysterious organization protecting him.

However, he could roughly pinpoint Ye Feng's location.

He's most likely mixed up among the boys in Class 10 of the first year at White Tiger Academy.

This was Li Chengping's deduction after hearing Su Qi's intelligence.

Therefore, he was prepared to kill the innocent rather than let the guilty go free.

But the next second, Su Qi's words overturned his guess.

"Don't worry, Aunt Mu. They won't catch Ye Feng so easily. Ye Feng has an amazing disguise skill. Even if you were face to face, you probably wouldn't be able to recognize him."

“He sneaked in before when the Li Clan held a spiritual treasure appraisal and auction. Even on their own territory, the Li Clan couldn’t catch him, so you don’t need to worry about him outside.”

These words made Li Chengping's eyes narrow.

"You're saying that the person who caused trouble at the Spirit Treasure Appraisal Meeting was Ye Feng?"

If that's the case, then we're in trouble.

The Li clan had witnessed that man's skill in disguise.

He disguised himself as Li Chunxin, and none of the many people present could see through his disguise.

If that's the case, then Ye Feng could be everyone in Zhongzhou.

"You don't know? You're enemies with Ye Feng, yet you don't even investigate his background?"

Su Qi was surprised.

Li Chengping's expression froze, and then he felt extremely embarrassed.

In fact, before Su Qi revealed that information, he didn't even know the name Ye Feng, let alone investigate his information.

"Ahem, state your conditions. You've been so cooperative in helping the Li family, what are your conditions?"

"I want to spend these last days with Aunt Mu!"

As Su Qi spoke, he cast a longing glance at Mu Xinglan, yearning for family affection, and asked in a low, cautious voice.

"May I?"

"I couldn't ask for more!" Mu Xinglan said with heartache, stepping forward to hug the poor child. But her gaze was fixed on Li Chengping.

"However, you will not have to pay any price for this. If they dare not agree, I will kill myself here."

"do not want!"

Su Qi exclaimed in surprise, her eyes filled with worry and disapproval, and shook her head slightly.

"I'm fine. I'm going to die anyway, so it doesn't matter if it's a few days earlier or later."

Seeing how sensible he was, Mu Xinglan felt even more heartache.

She couldn't imagine what this child had gone through to be able to face death so calmly at such a young age.

Li Chengping was initially somewhat hesitant.

After all, this floating island was the ancestor's secluded cultivation place, and even as the clan leader, he couldn't just arrange for people to live there at will.

Moreover, it concerns a miraculous medicine; who knows if Su Qi has ulterior motives?

Although Li Chengping felt that Su Qi, who had nothing of value and whose cultivation was sealed, couldn't cause any real trouble.

But his cautious nature made him somewhat reluctant to take the risk.

Before he could come up with an answer, the ancestor's voice rang in his ears.

"I agree to her request."

"But... Ancestor..."

"What, do you think she, a mere Golden Core cultivator with her cultivation sealed, can cause any trouble in front of me?"

Hearing this, Li Chengping realized he had been overthinking things and looked at Su Qi with a firm gaze.

"Okay, I agree to your terms."

After saying this, he called a maid over, gave her a few instructions, and then turned and left.

Only when the two of them were left in the courtyard did Mu Xinglan ask some private questions.

such as……

"Child, what is your name?"

"I...I don't have a name!" Su Qi's expression instantly darkened: "I'm the eighteenth android produced in this batch, so they call me Number 18!"

Seemingly unwilling to bring up these painful memories, Su Qi forced a smile.

"However, someone wanted to name me, but I refused. I've heard that only parents have the right to name people, and I refuse to acknowledge that bastard as my parent!"

Mentioning that "bastard" Su Qi makes him puff up with anger, which is unusually cute.

But Mu Xinglan was not touched by this cuteness; at this moment, she felt only sorrow.

This child has been bearing such a humiliating and inappropriate name, number 18, since birth.

Judging from his expression, he probably also longs to have a name from his parents, just like normal people.

Suppressing the grief in her heart, she forced a smile and spoke.

"You were created from Feng'er's bloodline, so you are equivalent to Feng'er in existence, while the bloodline in your body comes from me. I don't know..."

She paused, then looked at Su Qi with a sincere expression and spoke.

"Do I have the right to be your mother?"

Wait, shouldn't it be Grandma?

Grandparents and grandchildren are the closest!
