Chapter 861: Chapter 861 About the Key 2

Doomsday Scattering, the stronger the sunlight, the faster the poison spreads.

So, after the incident, Mu Huai took Lan An back to the Imperial Capital Black Market.

During this year, he hired countless alchemists, hoping to get a furnace of Vermilion Pills, but he couldn’t get any no matter what.

Half a year ago, under Lan An’s guidance, he began to learn alchemy by himself.

In six months, he studied alchemy day and night. It was unclear whether it was because of his high talent in alchemy or because Lan An taught him well, but he actually became a pill master at the later stage of the fourth order.

However, it was useless. The Vermilion Pill is a fourth-grade peak elixir, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t refine it.

Seeing that Lan An’s time was running out, and Mu Huai still hadn’t produced a Vermilion Pill, Mu Huai gradually felt the urge to give up.

The day Gu Zhiqi came to buy Xuan Yue Silk from Mu Huai, he had already decided that if Lan An really died, he would die with her.

Unexpectedly, Gu Zhiqi appeared.

"The Vermilion Pill I asked for before was to detoxify An An," Mu Huai said, looking at Gu Zhiqi with gratitude in his eyes, "Divine Doctor Gu, you have saved both me and An An again."

Saying this, Mu Huai clasped his hands and bowed deeply to Gu Zhiqi. noveldrama

After listening to Mu Huai’s story, Gu Zhiqi felt a little emotional.

It seemed that she was indeed fated with the two.

If she had gone to Twilight Returns Pharmacy two days later, Lan An’s life might have been lost.

But...

"So, what is the key actually for?"

Could it be that without that key, the new town master wouldn’t be the town master?

Hearing Gu Zhiqi’s question, Lan An shook his head, "Mr. Tang didn’t tell me the use of the key."

Hearing this, Gu Zhiqi didn’t ask any more.

It seemed that she still needed to find a time to contact Tang Shuan.

She stopped thinking about the key and instead looked at Lan An and asked, "The poison in you hasn’t been completely cured yet, so why are you in Virella?"

"Previously, Angel’s people appeared in Central Continent City. One of the ancient martial artists had a weapon similar to the leader who took the key from An An and me. When we heard they came to Virella, An An and I came to see if we could gather information about the key."

The key was stolen a year ago. During this year, Mu Huai focused all his attention on detoxifying Lan An.

Now that Lan An’s poison could be cured, it was time to find the key.

"Just you two?" Gu Zhiqi looked at Lan An and Mu Huai and asked.

One’s poison wasn’t fully cured, and the other’s ancient martial arts were completely ruined.

Just the two of them against Angel’s people, wasn’t that just asking for trouble?

Understanding Gu Zhiqi’s confusion, Mu Huai immediately said, "I won’t take An An into danger. I’ve sent my subordinates to gather information."

Bringing Lan An to Virella was just because Lan An had been staying in the black market for too long, and he wanted to take her out for a walk.

Gu Zhiqi nodded, indicating she understood.

After Gu Zhiqi finished her questions, it was Lan An’s turn to ask, "By the way, Master, why are you in Virella?"

Gu Zhiqi: "For fun."

Lan An: "..."

Do you think I believe that?

After chatting with Lan An and Mu Huai for a while, Gu Zhiqi planned to take a nap.

Mu Huai and Lan An left, but not before arranging dinner with Gu Zhiqi. As soon as she heard that Mu Huai was treating, Gu Zhiqi agreed without hesitation.

After her nap, Gu Zhiqi stayed in her room studying.

She studied until evening, when the sound of knocking at the door made her put away her books and walk toward the door.

Opening the door, she saw Mu Huai and Lan An standing at the door.

Lan An said to Gu Zhiqi, "Master, it’s dinner time."
