Chapter 118: Leaving the Jia Ma Sacred City
"Don't talk anymore, I'm going to withdraw the Heavenly Flame."
Without waiting for the reply, Xiao Ming's fingers curled slightly, and the red flame that was wrapped around the outside of his bones began to slowly withdraw, and finally, the last traces were removed.
"Master Xiao Ming, how is it?" Looking at Xiao Ming, who seemed to have stopped detoxifying the poison, Nalan Su, who had earlier retreated to the side so as not to disturb him, hurriedly took two steps forward and asked.
"This is the end of today's treatment. According to this progress, it will take at least seven days to completely detoxify him."
Xiao Ming looked at Nalan Jie, who looked better than before and said in a deep voice.
"Thank you, Master Xiao Ming, if there is anything you need from me in the future, just mention it!"
Looking at Nalan Jie's pale face, whose black color had disappeared, the heavy stone weighing on Nalan Su's heart finally fell.
Nalan Jie's importance to the Nalan family was the same as Xiao Lin's importance to the Xiao family before. Without this pillar, although the Nalan family would not be as bad as the Xiao family and would be driven out of the imperial capital, the gap between the other two families would certainly gradually widen.
"Well, remember to arrive tomorrow, I'll take my leave for today." Xiao Ming looked at the sky from the window and turned his head to Nalan Jie, who was on the bed.
"Master Xiao Ming, I will accompany you!" At this, Nalan Jie hurriedly smiled warmly and said as he was about to get up.
"Oh, there's no need! You've just detoxed yourself from a lot of toxins, so you should rest for a while." Saying this, Xiao Ming headed towards the exit of the house.
"Uh ... in that case, Su'er, hurry up and escort Master Xiao Ming out!" Nalan Jie heard the words and no longer tried to get up, but instead said to Nalan Su.
"Oh, right." Nalan Su caught up to Xiao Ming after hearing that.
...
For the next few days, Nalan Jie had to go home every day to treat the branded poison.
In a guest room, after going through the last treatment, Nalan Jie's face had returned to its normal color, without the dark aura he had in the past.
After moving his muscles and bones to make sure the toxins in his body had disappeared, Nalan Jie gratefully said to Xiao Ming, "Thank you Master Xiao Ming for your help these days!"
"No need to be polite." Xiao Ming waved his hand and said.
Knock, knock, knock!
Just at that moment, a knock sounded at the door. The debut release of this chapter happened at Ñòv€l-B1n.
"What's wrong?"
"Master Xiao Ming, Princess Yao Ye requests an audience!" A maidservant's voice came from outside the door.
Xiao Ming thought of Yao Ye upon hearing these words, Yao Ye had come to him for the past few days, he was not a fool, so he naturally understood Yao Ye's intentions.
And at that moment, Zi Yan also saw Yao Ye at the side and immediately got off Xiao Ming and said like an adult, "It's little Yao Ye, what brings you here?"
Looking at her, Xiao Ming, who had just put away the medicinal herbs, was a little speechless, and speaking of which, Zi Yan seemed to especially enjoy pretending to talk like an adult.
When they had just met at the Jia Nan Academy, Zi Yan used that kind of tone with him.
Later, however, as time went on, little by little Zi Yan changed her tone toward him.
"So it's Miss Zi Yan, great-grandfather asked me to bring tea to Master Xiao Ming."
"So that's what it's about, Xiao Ming likes tea, but I don't know what's good about it, most of them taste bitter." Zi Yan first nodded her head in an elderly manner and then said.
At this comment, Yao Ye just smiled, for those who did not like tea, tea was really a little bitter.
Yao Ye looked at Xiao Ming again and said softly, "Xiao Ming, I wonder what you think of my proposal?".
Xiao Ming was silent for a moment and turned to look at Zi Yan beside him.
"Forget it, I will have a chance to walk around the Imperial Capital in the future, it's been some time since I left the clan, and it's time for me to return." Xiao Ming said as he stroked Zi Yan's silky hair with a smile.
Yao Ye's face turned pale when she heard those words, she had just made it so obvious that she was almost about to confess directly, but Xiao Ming's reaction was still so indifferent.
She couldn't help but feel a little resentful, since no one had rejected her since she was a child.
Although she was not reconciled, she did not have the courage to say anything else when she looked at the profile of Xiao Ming's face.
It was difficult to dissolve the bitterness inside her, and her smile became a little stiff.
After taking a deep breath, Yao Ye stood up and lightly bit her red lips before saying, "In that case, the next time Master Xiao Ming comes to the Imperial City, you can make sure to send someone to inform Ye'er, and Ye'er will take you to enjoy the Imperial Capital next time."
"I'll definitely do it."
"It's getting late, so Ye'er will take her leave first!"
Xiao Ming watched as Yao Ye hurriedly left, then sat back down in his seat.
"Xiao Ming, shall we leave tomorrow?"
Zi Yan rushed over to Xiao Ming's arms again and asked excitedly, the past few days had been suffocating for her, now that Xiao Ming said she was leaving, didn't that mean he could accompany her to look for herbs?
"Yes, sleep well tonight! We'll leave early tomorrow morning."
...
The next day, the two of them, Xiao Ming and Zi Yan, started flying directly from the imperial capital to the northeastern province where the Xiao family was located.
