Luo Shunchen was somewhat perplexed. After all, it was Dark Slave who had personally escorted her back.
If it had not been for that one time on the seashore when he was twelve years old and encountered her, he would not have known she was looking for those strange and rare things.
Ji Ruyan shrugged her shoulders, "Perhaps I am not destined for a life of comfort. You've seen Xuexue. Xuexue was born carrying a congenital poison. I promised my mother that I would take good care of my sister. Over the years, I have traveled far and wide solely to find medicinal ingredients to treat Xuexue's illness."
"Xuexue has a congenital poison in her body?"
Luo Shunchen was somewhat surprised.
"Mhm. You're not an outsider, so I'll tell you the truth. Xuexue was poisoned with Drunken Yan Emperor, the same poison that killed my mother. You've probably investigated the murderer who killed my mother, so I won't go into details."
