chapter 15: Mysterious Huifen
Lin Huana's expression finally relaxed when she heard the young miss was willing to accede to her request.
To her, it didn't matter even if the spirit marrow pill was only a replica, its effect should be more than enough to stir her son, Lin Min into the path of cultivation and he could slowly completely heal his shattered meridians in the future!
She hurriedly got up and thanked her with her head still bowing.
The excitement on the face of the Young miss face almost matched the joy glowing in Huana's face as she stood up, and happily stretched her hands and gave the spirit Marrow to Huana.
Huana was happy and quickly reached out to grab hold of the pill, but when she tried to take it she noticed that it was still firmly gripped by the young miss.
Her heart almost fell off her chest, was the young miss going back on her word, and she felt horrified that she wasn't able to forcefully take the pill from the young miss even though she was at the peak of the foundation establishment realm that should be impossible unless....
A thought crossed her mind causing her to shiver briefly, could the young miss be in the same realm as her or even higher, if that was true, how scary would that be?
How old was she, Huana was currently in her thirties and have been cultivating for decades to reach her current realm, but what of the young miss!
She didn't look older than thirteen, since anyone who had the talent to cultivate could only start cultivating at the age of seven, which means she's been cultivating for a little bit more than six years! and she managed to catch up to Huana who could be considered a genius in the Lin clan.... no the entire Azure sky town!
How terrifying was that!!
Her speed was already comparable to those prodigies that belonged to big and powerful sects that Azure sky town couldn't compare to at all.
Thinking up to this point, Huana turned her gaze away from the spirit marrow pill she was holding on to as if her life depended on it and looked at the other party that was holding the other part of the pearl-like emerald pill.
Huana's eyes revealed a little bit of fear when she looked at the young miss now, and her entire body trembled when her eyes landed on the pair of childlike golden eyes of the young miss, for a moment she felt like she was staring directly into the eyes of a powerful ruler beast! who was looking at its prey?
Even though that terrifying gaze lingered for a moment before returning to its childlike state, it left a deep impression on Lin Huana's mind.
"Aunty, don't be nervous, it seems you forgot to say something" Seeing the conflicted expression and the fear-stricken eyes on Huana's face the young miss nearly burst into laughter but she suppressed her glee and asked calmly with a puzzled look on her childish face.
Lin Huana snapped out out of her daze and bowed even more and she loudly said, "Yes..yes young mid I almost forgot... I have forgiven you and your family for the wrongdoings of the past, henceforth bygones will be bygones and I look forward to building a relationship with the young miss and the City lord manor"
Lin Huana said those words with one breath and very solemnly but she didn't mean a single word of it and would even jump out and fought a battle to the death with the city lord right now if she was strong enough and had the chance.
The young Miss finally looked please and said, "Aunty I'm so glad to hear that, I also want to know aunty more, I would love nothing more if aunty can call me by my name..." the young miss suddenly paused mid-sentence and showed a shy look before saying her name "My mother named me Huifen because she thought I looked wise and fragrant when I was born"
Lin Huana played along and repeated the name, "nice to meet you Lady Huifen"
Huifen's face broke into a smile and she finally let go of the pill, and smiled happily, "Thanks for calling me by my name aunty Huana, it's been a while since someone other than my father called me by my name....cough cough"
suddenly the young miss Huifen's face suddenly turned pale and she coughed multiple times and she staggered backward.
"Young miss!" Jun Tao was quick to react and quickly stepped forward to support the wobbling Huifen to regain her footing otherwise she would have fallen down now.
"Huifen are you okay" by the side Huana frowned a bit and asked, Since the other party had given her something as precious as the spirit marrow pill, Huana still felt some goodwill towards her even though the other party might have a scheme behind all this. Huana was genuinely surprised when the latter suddenly turned sick when she was acting jovial just now.
She has seen this scene many times before, especially during that disaster ten years ago when many people died suddenly from poisoned pores and meridians.
From the looks of it Huifen, the daughter of that evil woman didn't completely escape the curse or the plague that was her mother and was also afflicted with poisoning.
"I'm fine aunty, it's just my sickness acting up again, nothing to worry about all I need is rest, apologies aunty but I can't stay and chat with you longer," Huifen said with great difficulty, her voice was low and seemed forced.
Huana nodded, then she place her hands in the bag resting on her blossom and took out a green leaf, and passed it over to Huifen, "Here is a twenty-year-old Jewel weed capable of curing all mortal poisons... although it's not as valuable as the Spirit marrow pill you gifted me, it can still help you suppress your poison for a while"
Huifen eyes lit up when her eyes landed on the Jewelweed, she hurriedly took it and expressed and thanks, "Thank you, I'm pretty sure aunty is very eager to help brother Lin Min recover as soon as possible, I won't bother you anymore and take my leave now" Huifen said softly before cupping both her hands.
Then with the help of Jun Tao she left Lin Huana's courtyard.
Huana watched them leave with complicated gaze, on one hand she felt that young lady Huifen was rather pitiful to have such a cruel mother and can only leave a life suffering with poison.
On the other hand She felt relieved that they finally left, that young girl was just too terrifying be it in cultivation and shrewd ness.
Huana felt like she was dealing with an old expert when they talked just now, from beginning to the end the other party was in control and took initiative.
Huana hoped she wouldn't have to meet that girl in the near future and hoped Lin Min stop having any thought about that child.
She decided she would warn Lin Min to stay far from that girl
with that thought going through her head she turned back and went into her house with one goal in mind.
Help Lin Min absorb the contents of the spirit marrow pill and become a cultivator!!
