"Did Bu Daming, that unreliable guy, tell you about it?"

Luo Tianyi looked at Su Xuan and said with amusement.

"..."

Su Xuan was speechless for a moment. He thought to himself that when that old fellow talked to him back then, he seemed so mysterious, as if he had told only him the secret. But now, it seemed that wasn’t the case at all.

"Did that old guy also tell you that there’s a Divine Strategy Army in this desert, and said that as long as you find the Dragon Gate Flying Armor, you can open the underground palace’s door and summon the Divine Strategy Army?"

"Ahem ahem..."

Su Xuan coughed awkwardly, looking at the unreliable Bu Daming sleeping by the fire. He thought to himself that, apparently, this old guy, who claimed he wouldn’t reveal anyone’s secret, had already spilled everyone’s secrets!

"Bu Daming had already told everyone before you came, and among us, you were probably the last to know."

"Ahem, um..."

Su Xuan felt really embarrassed. Although the old fellow told him these things, he never believed them to be true. But it was indeed quite embarrassing, especially being questioned like this by Luo Tianyi, even making him feel like his embarrassment cancer flared up.

"And what exactly are you all going for this time?"

Su Xuan was absolutely confident that since these people were going there, they must have some agenda. At the very least, they wouldn’t go there aimlessly.

"Though that guy indeed likes to talk nonsense, and his imagination is very rich, there’s one thing he wasn’t wrong about. That is, there’s an Ancient Tomb in this desert. According to the professor, it might very well be the tomb of Yuan Tiangang from the Peak Tang era, who was a physician..."

"And isn’t that the Eternal Life Medicine, wasn’t it a legend that he made the Eternal Life Medicine for Li Shimin?"

Su Xuan smacked his lips and asked curiously. He didn’t know that Yuan Tiangang’s Ancient Tomb would actually be located here.

"You also said it was a legend, so naturally it doesn’t count. The Eternal Life Medicine itself isn’t scientific, but Yuan Tiangang did concoct many good Pills. My only demand for supporting this time is that if the Ancient Tomb is found, I want just one Pill I desire, and I won’t touch the rest. The archaeology team is into academic research, and I just take one Pill, which naturally won’t be a big problem, so we hit it off."

Besides Huo Qiyin and some high-level personnel, Su Xuan was the only outsider who knew about this, because Su Xuan saved him. Therefore, he didn’t hide such things after all. If not for Su Xuan, he would have become wolf food directly.

Moreover, he also knew as Su Xuan was such a clever person, he definitely wouldn’t believe he was doing this for academic research. Instead of that, it was better to tell him the truth, which showed sincerity.

"Looking for a Pill?"

Su Xuan was curious. This woman was actually looking for a specific Pill, which indeed surprised him. Not the Eternal Life Medicine, investing so much, even personally going out, why exactly?

"Looking for a Pill called Dragon Flame Heart!"

"Dragon Flame Heart, you mean the one that’s said to be even more potent than Deer Reviving Grass!"

Su Xuan was amazed. He really didn’t expect that even here, there would be something even more amazing than Deer Reviving Grass. Su Xuan had heard about the Dragon Flame Heart, it was an extraordinarily miraculous Pill. It’s said the ingredients include Deer Reviving Grass, Dragon whisker root, and even Heavenly Mountain Half Lotus, which is extremely precious.

"You’ve heard of Dragon Flame Heart!"

Seeing Su Xuan, this surprised him. He didn’t expect this guy to be so knowledgeable. Now he was filled with curiosity about Su Xuan, suspecting whether this fellow might be into tomb robbery.

"Uh, what do you want that thing for?"

Su Xuan asked curiously, thinking that the Dragon Flame Heart was indeed a strange thing. Although precious, its effect wasn’t particularly powerful. Based on what Su Xuan knew, the Dragon Flame Heart seemed to be only able to detoxify, which made it rather useless.

"Are you poisoned?

Su Xuan thought of it as useless because it might have been a good thing for ancient times when medicine was undeveloped, with no serum and other advanced treatment methods. So for that era, perhaps such Detoxification Pills were a bit useless.

And now, with science so advanced, in this era, actually Detoxification Pills aren’t that useful anymore. Investing so much really necessary?

"It’s not me, it’s my father!"

Luo Tianyi whispered, filled with greater admiration for Su Xuan. The Dragon Flame Heart wasn’t known to many people, this guy not only knew about it but also knew its use for detoxification, really smart.

"Your father? Actually, according to what I know, Dragon Flame Heart, although effective for detoxifying, isn’t potent to the extent of being instantly effective. Spending so much just to get Dragon Flame Heart."

"Well, it’s just unavoidable. Father was framed, now poison has spread through his organs, no method helps. He needs to take lots of medicine every day to suppress it, and medicine has accumulated toxicity, now in a terminal stage. According to a Divine Doctor we know, if we find Dragon Flame Heart, we can completely heal father’s body."

"I see!"

Su Xuan smacked his lips, actually understanding this situation. As a major family, actually now already in terminal condition, and other methods don’t work. So the Dragon Flame Heart became the last straw, whether useful or not, they’d go all out to grab this last life line.

"Please help me keep this a secret, about my search for Dragon Flame Heart, only you know. They know I’m searching for a Pill, but they don’t know what exactly I’m looking for!"

Luo Tianyi looked at Su Xuan, asking earnestly.

Su Xuan nodded to show he understood. Family matters are never simple, and his father being poisoned meant that someone had been harming them, so someone would try to sabotage, which made sense.

"I understand!"

Su Xuan nodded, and then said.

"You go sleep for a while, maybe the later night will be even more dangerous!"

Su Xuan advised, Luo Tianyi nodded, joined the group and glanced at Su Xuan, then sweetly entered her dreamland. After she fell asleep, Su Xuan looked at the sky, then observed the wolves looming in the distance, pondering how many dangers lie ahead on this desert journey.

Helplessly sighed.
