Chapter 412: Chapter 412,
"..."
Liuka was utterly dumbfounded, yet she had no idea what to say.
Because Yun Jinnian would not leave, she had no way to take him out.
Telan was very anxious on the side.
Although she didn’t know what exactly Liuka was plotting, she always felt that Liuka’s behavior was not good.
She feared being thrown into the Poisonous Pit.
Yun Jinnian sighed, "Liuka, do you really think that without me, you could certainly become the Saintess?"
Liuka pursed her lips, remaining silent.
Yun Jinnian continued, "If that’s what you think, then you’re gravely mistaken. Let me ask you, do you have the Sacred Relic in hand or does the Spiritual Poisonous Insect favor you? Or perhaps you have the bloodline of a former Saintess? You were merely selected from among the common folk of Nanjiang because the insect would drink your blood, but have you forgotten? The insect doesn’t just feed on your blood; it also feeds on the blood of Telan, Anji, and Sanglin. You’re not unique. I don’t know who you’ve colluded with to harm me, but I advise you not to be gullible, to ignore the instigations of others, and to end up harming others and yourself. Leave now, you no longer need to serve me!"
Liuka’s face turned ashen.
She wandered out as if she had lost her soul.
The sunlight outside was particularly dazzling, yet Liuka felt utterly cold all over.
After turning a few corridors, she was knocked unconscious and taken away...
Inside the room
Yun Jinnian glanced at Telan, "Now that everything is set in stone, no one can change it. I will return to Capital City in a few days. Telan, do you want to come with me, or go back home?"
Telan looked at Yun Jinnian, her lips quivering, then she knelt down in front of Yun Jinnian with a thud, "Saintess, I wish to go home!"
She had been selected by the sect at seven, and it had been nearly ten years since then, having never returned home, not seeing her parents, her brothers, or her sisters.
Every year, she could only receive food and some miscellaneous items brought by someone sent by her parents. Now with this grace, she wanted to go home to marry. With this experience, she could marry into a respectable family.
Telan was well aware that she and Yun Jinnian were different.
Yun Jinnian was a direct descendant of a former Saintess, with direct blood ties, both the Sacred Relic and the Spiritual Poisonous Insect were in her possession, and the Law Honor and the four Elders treated her with the reverence due to a Saintess, unlike her, a mere puppet.
"Okay, in a few days, I will allow you to leave!" Yun Jinnian helped Telan stand up.
She then asked who else was in Telan’s family, and Telan recounted them one by one.
Yun Jinnian also asked her to inquire about the wishes of Ji’an and Sanglin.
Yet Elder Mu arrived, brimming with joy, "Saintess, Saintess, the elixir is ready!"
"Really?" Yun Jinnian stood up, thought of her leg injury, and sat back down.
"Yes, it’s ready. It will be heated on a gentle flame until tomorrow, and then we can start making the pills. You must come and see it!"
"About how many will there be?"
"Combining all the Pill Furnaces, there should be around eight hundred pills!"
Yun Jinnian gave a faint smile, "That’s excellent. Once the elixirs are out, we will see how effective they are, and if they’re good, we can produce more!"
"This is all to your credit, Saintess!" Elder Mu was delighted, yet also felt a twinge of pity.
She was, after all, just a twelve-year-old child.
"It’s just a bowl of blood, I’ve been eating well these days, I’ve already recovered!" Yun Jinnian spoke the truth.
The little bit of blood she had shed had indeed already been replenished.
She didn’t bring up the matter with Liuka.
But little did Yun Jinnian know that at that very moment, Liuka and her conspirator had been exposed and thrown into the Poisonous Pit.
Upon learning this, Telan’s expression changed subtly, and she was secretly relieved that she hadn’t been as foolish as Liuka, harming both herself and others.
In the blink of an eye, it was New Year’s Eve, and yet a major incident had occurred in the Yun Family of Capital City...
