"Ye Kunlun, can you please let Lei Ju go?"
Tang Tangtang, seeing Ye Kunlun emerge, immediately retracted her previous imposing manner and looked at him in a soft voice.
Ye Kunlun, looking at the gentle Tang Tangtang speaking to him, replied, "The person was captured by Blood Hand Wuchang. He will be back soon. Let him decide then!"
Tang Tangtang huffed, "I knew asking you was useless!"
"Get in the car."
Tang Zhuozhuo smiled and proactively opened the car door for Ye Kunlun.
Tang Zhuozhuo drove, Ye Kunlun sat in the passenger seat, and Tang Tangtang sat in the back.
Ye Kunlun glanced at Tang Zhuozhuo, "After just one night, the pure Yang energy within you is almost imperceptible."
"Thanks to your Xuan Yang Jue."
Tang Zhuozhuo replied with a smile, "And I found that after cultivating Xuan Yang Jue, my period isn't as painful."
"Ah? Big Sister, your period isn't painful anymore?"
Tang Tangtang, with her sharp ears, heard this and shouted, "I remember you used to suffer terribly from period pain every month!"
"You little brat, can't you be a bit quieter!"
Tang Zhuozhuo said speechlessly.
Tang Tangtang stuck out her tongue and made a face, "If only there was a medicine that could make it not hurt anymore."
"Do you want to eat it?"
Ye Kunlun smiled.
"Of course, I do. Being a woman is too painful. Tangtang doesn't want to be a woman, and even less does she want to have children!"
Tang Tangtang clutched her stomach, thinking about her period. Although it wasn't as painful as her elder sister's, it still hurt.
Tang Zhuozhuo, hearing her precious sister speak more and more absurdly, shook her head.
Ye Kunlun, however, asked, "Is anyone forcing you to have children?"
"But Grandpa used to say that it's only natural for women to have children." Tang Tangtang said helplessly.
Ye Kunlun replied, "There aren't so many things that are natural in this world. If you want to have them, have them; if you don't, don't. As long as you are strong enough."
Tang Zhuozhuo looked at Ye Kunlun in surprise and chuckled softly, "I didn't expect you to be so open-minded. It's just that most of the time, we have no control over ourselves."
Ye Kunlun remained silent.
After hearing Ye Kunlun's words, Tang Tangtang also fell silent, leaning against the window and gazing at the tall buildings outside.
Half an hour later, the car entered the Tang family residence.
Ye Kunlun was somewhat surprised.
As one of the Seven Clans, the Tang family, even if they didn't have a manor of thousands of mu, should at least have a hundred mu.
However, the Tang family occupied only over ten mu, with buildings mostly in the courtyard style, giving them an ancient feel.
After circling around, the car stopped in front of a small courtyard.
"Ye Kunlun, Grandmother lives in this small courtyard."
Tang Zhuozhuo stopped the car and said to Ye Kunlun.
Ye Kunlun got out of the car and surveyed the ancient-style courtyard. Climbing roses covered the walls on both sides of the entrance, exuding vitality.
"Greetings to the eldest young lady and the third young lady."
The guards at the entrance respectfully greeted Tang Zhuozhuo and Tang Tangtang.
"Uncle Li, have Changsun Han and the others arrived?"
Tang Zhuozhuo glanced at another car beside them and asked.
"Yes."
"Ye Kunlun, let's go in." Tang Zhuozhuo took a deep breath, feeling a hint of nervousness.
As Ye Kunlun stepped into the courtyard, before he even approached the house, he smelled a faint medicinal scent.
"Long Juezi." Ye Kunlun muttered, "Was your grandmother's prescription made by Yu Buyu?"
"Yes." Tang Zhuozhuo nodded. "Is there a problem?"
Ye Kunlun shook his head and replied, "No, let's go in!"
Inside the room.
Tang Yalin was by the window, attending to an old woman, who was none other than the Old Madam Tang.
"Second Uncle Tang, Mr. Wangyou comes from Piaoxue Pavilion and is skilled in the art of alchemy. With his help, Tang Grandmother's health will surely be restored."
Changsun Han said to Tang Yalin with a touch of pride.
Tang Yalin, as the second head of the Tang family, had heard about yesterday's events at Ziyan Tower and the existence of Piaoxue Pavilion.
He was surprised that the Mr. Wangyou before him was actually from there.
Tang Yalin cupped his hands towards Wangyou and said, "Then we shall trouble Mr. Wangyou."
Wangyou stepped forward and took the Old Madam's pulse, but he frowned.
Changsun Han asked, "Mr. Wangyou, how is Tang Grandmother's condition?"
Wangyou withdrew his hand and offered an apologetic smile to Tang Yalin, "Although I am skilled in alchemy and have some knowledge of medicine, I am powerless to help the Old Madam's condition."
"Mr. Wangyou, there is no need to blame yourself."
Tang Yalin seemed to have expected this outcome.
Changsun Han was slightly disappointed but didn't dwell on it. He was here today to deal with Ye Kunlun.
As for the Old Madam Tang's illness, he couldn't care less!
If Wangyou could cure her, the Tang family would owe him a favor; if not, it wouldn't matter.
"Dad."
Tang Zhuozhuo entered at this moment, "I've brought Ye Kunlun."
Ye Kunlun followed her in, his gaze falling on Tang Yalin.
Tang Yalin scrutinized Ye Kunlun from head to toe, his eyes filled with a certain appraisal.
After all, Ye Kunlun had an engagement with his daughter. As a future father-in-law, he naturally had to take a good look at him.
Ye Kunlun, however, withdrew his gaze and glanced at the veiled woman beside Changsun Han.
Ye Kunlun sensed a deeply hidden killing intent from her.
It seemed Changsun Han had come today with the determination to kill him.
Wangyou was also observing Ye Kunlun, curious to see what kind of person the young man who could produce the Jiuyuan Pill was.
However, Ye Kunlun's presence felt too ordinary, not at all like someone who could refine the Jiuyuan Pill, and Wangyou felt a bit disappointed.
"Heh heh."
Tang Yalin chuckled and said, "I have heard of Young Friend Ye's deeds. He can be considered young and impetuous."
"Furthermore, you bestowed a Jiuyuan Pill upon Zhuozhuo last night. If it can cure my mother, you will be a great benefactor to our Tang family."
Changsun Han, however, let out a cold laugh and said, "Second Uncle Tang, Tang Grandmother is of noble body. This kind of丹药 with an unknown origin should first be appraised by Mr. Wangyou, as Mr. Wangyou comes from Piaoxue Pavilion."
Tang Yalin nodded.
Even without Changsun Han's suggestion, he would not have allowed the Old Madam to take it directly and would have found ways to confirm the safety of the Jiuyuan Pill.
Ye Kunlun glanced at Changsun Han when he introduced Wangyou's identity.
He hadn't expected to encounter someone from Piaoxue Pavilion here.
Tang Zhuozhuo took out the white porcelain bottle that Ye Kunlun had given her last night and handed it to Wangyou, "Please examine it, sir."
Wangyou took the porcelain bottle and removed the stopper.
Instantly, a rich medicinal fragrance permeated the room.
Wangyou's expression changed drastically. As an alchemist from Piaoxue Pavilion, he could determine the grade of the pill in the bottle with just a whiff.
"Heaven grade!" Wangyou exclaimed inwardly, his heartbeat accelerating.
Not long ago, he had seen a Heaven grade, ninth-rank Po Ling Pill.
Now, he was seeing a Heaven grade Jiuyuan Pill.
Even Piaoxue Pavilion might not be able to afford such a grand gesture, as Heaven grade pills were incredibly rare and expensive.
He looked into the bottle. A bean-sized, pale purple pill lay at the bottom, its beautiful pill patterns making his breathing quicken.
"It's real, it's actually the real Jiuyuan Pill!"
Wangyou thought to himself, but he suppressed his excitement, glanced at Changsun Han, and then said to everyone, "Although it is a good pill, it is not the Jiuyuan Pill and cannot cure Old Madam Tang's illness!"
