Chapter 97 Ye Li's Advancement

Ye Liuli's shout distracted Liu Ruxuan, who was hit in the shoulder. Liu Ruxuan quickly took a few steps back, covering the spot where Ye Li had just hit her with her right hand, letting out a muffled groan of pain, but saying, "Good hit!"

Ye Liuli rushed to Liu Ruxuan's side and checked her injuries: "Ruxuan, are you alright?"

"I'm fine." Liu Ruxuan rubbed her left shoulder.

"Brother, why did you hit so hard?" Ye Liuli looked at Ye Li angrily. Ye Li was like a child who had made a mistake, at a loss for words: "I...I didn't mean it..." Before Ye Li could finish speaking, he felt a power stirring within his body.

"What is it? Ru Xuan..." Ye Liuli was halfway through her sentence when Liu Ru Xuan gestured to her, stopping her. Ye Liuli looked puzzled. Why was she not allowed to speak?

Ye Li was overjoyed to discover that he was about to advance in his cultivation! He immediately sat cross-legged, sensing the changes in his body. He saw rings of mist slowly appear around him, enveloping him.

Liu Ruxuan wasn't surprised, but Ye Liuli looked on in astonishment: "Ru, Ruxuan, my brother is advancing in rank?!"

Liu Ruxuan smiled slightly: "Yes, the Gu poison in your brother's body has been cleared, so I attacked him when he wasn't paying attention, making him activate the spiritual power that had been dormant for decades!"

Ye Li surged forward three levels in quick succession before stopping, and he was now a mid-level fourth-tier expert.

The mist around Ye Li dissipated, and he was now full of energy, almost jumping for joy. He had been cultivating since childhood, but when he reached the third tier of mage, he was suppressed by the poisonous insects within his body, unable to use his spiritual power or continue cultivating. Now, he had suddenly advanced to the middle of the fourth tier—something he had never imagined in his life. Ye Li looked at Liu Ruxuan excitedly, unsure how to thank her.

Seeing Ye Li's excited yet hesitant expression, Liu Ruxuan said, "I know you're grateful to me, but there's absolutely no need. You should focus on your cultivation and protecting Liuli from now on."

Ye Li nodded vigorously: "Of course."

柳府

Yi Qing quickly approached Liu Yiting: "Miss."

"What did you find?" Liu Yiting stared intently at Yiqing.

Yi Qing lowered her head slightly and said, "Yes, Miss. Liu Ruxuan did not meet with Master Gong or go to the Prince of Jin's residence after leaving the mansion. She went almost entirely to Yongren Hall."

Ever since Liu Ruxuan was taken away by Dugu Juechen, Liu Yiting has become more cautious and asked Yiqing to secretly follow Liu Ruxuan to see what she was busy with every day.

"Yongrentang? What is she going to Yongrentang for?" Liu Yiting couldn't understand.

“Yongrentang is a place to get medicine and see a doctor. Could it be that Liu Ruxuan went there to get medicine to take?” Yiqin added her analysis from the side.

“She’s perfectly healthy and active, why would she need medicine?” Liu Yiting dismissed Yiqin’s idea. Could it be that she was using Yongrentang as a pretext to secretly meet her lover? Thinking of this, Liu Yiting immediately decided: “I’ll go and see for myself when I have time.”

In the back garden of Yongrentang, Liu Ruxuan had Xiyue and Chuxia bring over some herbs and distribute them to Xiong Chengen, Peng Yize, and Zhuo Hanlin. Each of the three had a medicine furnace and, under Liu Ruxuan's guidance, they refined pills.

"Oh dear, Pharmacist Xiong, why did you only put in so few herbs? How many pills can you make from that? Put in more, more!" Liu Ruxuan said, throwing a handful of herbs into Xiong Chengen's medicine furnace.
