Your Highness, please stop chasing me.

Chapter 66 Black Vines

"Everyone, go outside and wait. I'm going to get started." Mu Xue took the snake gall and walked to the bedside.

Wang Xin'er, the most impatient of them all, said, "I can stay and help you."

Wang Baiqi put on a stern face and said, "Xin'er, don't be willful. Quickly come with your father to wait outside."

After saying that, he pulled up Wang Xin'er, who was still struggling, and walked out first.

Cang Lin asked, "Don't you need me to stay and help you?"

"No need. Have them go out and prepare a large tub of hot water. I'm going to prepare a medicinal bath for him later," Mu Xue said.

He can't really be of much help if he stays here.

He turned and left, closing the door behind him.

Then, he stood in front of the door like a door god, arms crossed, expressionless.

Wang Baiqi, who came out before him, saw Cang Lin and assumed he was Mu Xue's bodyguard.

He said ingratiatingly, "Sir, I have prepared tea and snacks in the side hall. Why don't you go and sit down and wait?"

"Bring a big tub of hot water; we'll prepare a medicinal bath for your son later," Cang Lin relayed Mu Xue's words.

Then he leaned against the door, closed his eyes to rest, and ignored Wang Baiqi.

Wang Xin'er, standing to the side, pursed her lips and muttered under her breath, "Like master, like servant."

Upon hearing her words, Cang Lin opened his eyes and gave her a cold, sidelong glance.

That one glance was enough to startle Wang Xin'er so much that she couldn't help but take two steps back.

At that moment, it felt as if someone was choking her, making it impossible for her to breathe.

She hid behind Wang Baiqi, avoiding Cang Lin's gaze.

But her legs still trembled uncontrollably. She felt as if Cang Lin's gaze had pierced through her father's body and was shooting straight at her, as if she were being stared at by a demon's eye.

Wang Baiqi quickly bowed and apologized, saying, "Please forgive me, sir. My daughter was ignorant of etiquette and disturbed you."

"Keep an eye on her, or she'll get into trouble for what she says." Since Mu Xue has decided to take the Wang family in, it's only right that he give her some pointers.

Wang Baiqi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He now realized that this man in red was probably not just a simple guard.

He then asked, "May I ask how you are addressed, sir?"

“Mu Lin,” Cang Lin said, “I am her maternal uncle.”

He didn't name her, but Wang Baiqi instantly understood.

He said respectfully, "So it's you, Uncle. I've been rude."

Cang Lin was pleased with his understanding and nodded, saying, "You are someone she approves of. Since your Wang family has submitted to her, I will naturally protect your Wang family as well."

Wang Baiqi was startled. He had submitted to Mu Xue because she was an ancient doctor with unlimited potential. He never expected to receive such an unexpected surprise.

He had no doubt about what Cang Lin said. Although he was not very strong in martial arts, his years of experience in the business world had given him a better eye than most people.

With the protection of a powerful force, what future does the Wang family have to worry about?

"Thank you, sir." This time, he lowered his body even further, his curiosity about Mu Xue growing stronger.

Mu Xue arrived in Yu Nan City when she was three years old, and Wang Baiqi believed that he had a fairly thorough understanding of the Mu family.

When she was five years old, the Mu family suddenly encountered a major incident, and overnight, Mu Xue's status plummeted.

He also thought that the eldest daughter of the Mu family would disappear from everyone's sight, but unexpectedly, she would reappear as an ancient doctor.

He had a premonition that if he followed Mu Xue, his Wang family's future would be limitless.

After Mu Xue and the others left, she carefully took out the snake gall and placed it in a pre-prepared ice bowl. She then carefully pierced the gall with a silver needle, and instantly, a fishy and bitter smell filled the room.

Wang Xuanze coughed lightly, clearly uncomfortable, and asked, "Miss Mu, what should I do?"

Mu Xue was somewhat surprised. She looked at Wang Xuanze and asked, "You recognize me?"

Wang Xuanze smiled, and in that instant, Mu Xue felt a gentle spring breeze in his eyes.

She thought, "The gentleman is as gentle as jade, he must be the one!"

Mu Xue looked at Wang Xuanze, her tone softening considerably. She said, "You don't need to do anything, just take a nap."

After saying that, before Wang Xuanze could understand, she raised her hand and inserted a needle—the very same silver needle that had just pierced the snake's gallbladder.

Just as Wang Xuanze was about to fall, she reached out and caught him, holding him tightly in her arms and gently laying him down on the bed.

Mu Xue reached out and removed the blanket and shirt from his body.

Wang Xuanze's six-pack abs appeared before Mu Xue's eyes. She couldn't help but swallow hard.

"Sure enough, he's handsome and has a great physique!" she murmured to herself.

At this moment, she saw that black patterns had appeared around the silver needle that had been inserted earlier, spreading outwards like vines.

Mu Xue's eyes suddenly sharpened, and as she raised her head, she already held three silver needles in each hand.

With lightning speed, she inserted silver needles into the ice bowl containing snake gall, and with a flick of her wrist, in the blink of an eye, all six silver needles were stuck into Wang Xuanze's major acupoints.

She repeated this process until Wang Xuanze's face was completely covered in black vines before she stopped, her body swaying slightly.

Looking at Wang Xuanze again, he seemed to be having a nightmare, his whole body trembling uncontrollably.

He felt as if he were walking in endless darkness, surrounded by black vines that kept attacking him until he was completely entangled and unable to move.

The more he struggled, the tighter the vines entangled him.

Gradually, he felt difficulty breathing. He couldn't help but want to shout, but no sound came out.

The silver needle that Mu Xue used to seal her voice trembled the most violently.

Mu Xue knew that he must be in great pain right now, but the blackfin snake venom was difficult to cure not only because very few people knew how to detoxify it, but also because the process of detoxification was extremely difficult.

If you can get through it, the poison will be neutralized; if you can't, you'll die.

Mu Xue saw that Wang Xuanze's breath was getting weaker and weaker, and that if this continued, he might not make it.

She stepped forward, placed her hand on Wang Xuanze's shoulder, and used her unique inner strength to infuse her voice, whispering in his ear, "Wang Xuanze, you have to hold on, you must get through this. I'm here, you'll be alright, believe me!"

Mu Xue's powerful voice exploded in Wang Xuanze's mind.

It instantly brought his fading consciousness back to its senses.

In his mind, only Mu Xue's words kept repeating: "With me here, you'll be fine, trust me! With me here, you'll be fine, trust me!..."

He murmured along, "With you here, I believe in you; with you here, I believe in you..."

Feeling that his mind had calmed down, Mu Xue finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She suddenly slumped down on the edge of the bed, feeling as if all the strength had been drained from her body.

It seems that forcibly releasing her internal energy is still somewhat difficult for her at this point.

She paused for a while before saying, "Wang Xuanze, I almost lost my life trying to save you. You have to pull through!"

As if responding to Mu Xue's words, the black vines on Wang Xuanze's body were indeed slowly receding.

Mu Xue knew that Wang Xuanze's poison had finally been cured.
