Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi-Chapter 300 Three-Flower Seven-Leaf Herb
```
"A dying man still has the nerve to think about crushing others to pieces?"
Xiao Yi’s voice eerily reached Ning Luo’s ears.
Ning Luo’s movements abruptly stalled.
His sword-like eyebrows contracted, as he turned towards the speaking Xiao Yi: "Boy, what nonsense are you spouting?"
Xiao Yi coolly responded, "What? Isn’t Master Nalan, the Pavilion Master of Treasure Pavilion, a Seven-Star Alchemist? Can’t he even see that you are on death’s doorstep?"
Hum!
Ning Luo’s complexion dramatically changed.
Behind him...
Ning Kang roared, "You little bastard, what rubbish are you spouting? My father..."
"Shut up!"
Ning Luo turned back and glared at him fiercely, his expression solemn as he regarded Xiao Yi, unconsciously adding a hint of reverence, "May I know how to address you, sir?"
Xiao Yi glanced at the increasingly curious onlookers and remained silent.
Ning Luo immediately understood and gestured invitingly, "This way, please!"
"Dad, he just broke my arm..." Ning Kang’s face was filled with confusion, not understanding why his father, who always doted on him, was showing such respect to the enemy who had broken his arm.
"Quiet!"
Ning Luo barked in anger, then said to the guard beside him, "Take Steward Ning to have his wound dressed!"
"Yes!"
The guard promptly carried away a bewildered Ning Kang.
"Please, this way," Ning Luo said, leading Xiao Yi and the others towards the back hall.
Along the way.
Ning Luo’s attitude towards Yan Mingli became much gentler: "Brother Mingli, it has been over twenty years since we last met, how have you been these years?"
Observing the warmth on Ning Luo’s face, Yan Mingli’s mouth twitched slightly.
Just a moment ago.
This guy was thinking about tearing him to pieces!
And now, he was all smiles and pleasantries.
Knowing he was at fault, Ning Luo quickly said, "Brother Mingli, my son is injured, and I was just concerned to a fault! Please understand the heart of a parent!"
With things said to this point, Yan Mingli didn’t continue to hold back and said, "I have been staying in Nanhuang these years, now I’m following Xiao to the imperial city, seeking a career!"
"Xiao?"
Ning Luo was taken aback, his face full of shock, "This, this gentleman is Xiao Yi? Director Xiao?"
Yan Mingli nodded.
Ning Luo gasped in surprise.
Of late...
The name Xiao Yi has been on everyone’s lips.
In the entire imperial city, who does not know Xiao Yi?
At the peak of the Golden Core Realm, in control of Xiaoshanhe Institute.
Forcefully expelled Chen Shuiwen.
Just yesterday, he even set a one-month agreement with the Nalan Family.
Ning Luo took a deep breath, seeing that Xiao Yi was not looking at him, he quietly asked Yan Mingli, "Brother Mingli, what brings you here today?"
Yan Mingli replied, "We came today hoping to meet with Master Nalan, I wonder if it’s convenient?"
"My master received an ancient elixir prescription a few days ago and has been immersed in studying it recently. May I know the purpose of your visit? If it is urgent, I can pass on the message, but..." Ning Luo pointed to himself and made an eye gesture at Yan Mingli, implicitly indicating.
Yan Mingli looked towards Xiao Yi.
```
Xiao Yi said indifferently, "As long as I see Master Nalan, I have a way to save your life!"
Ning Luo frowned slightly, hesitating, "Master Xiao..."
"I know what you’re worried about!"
Xiao Yi glanced at him, his sharp gaze seemed as if it could see right through him, "I still have a way to deal with the poison of the Three-Flower Seven-Leaf Herb!"
Hiss!
Ning Luo’s face suddenly changed.
He was indeed poisoned by the Three-Flower Seven-Leaf Herb.
This was something that even Ning Kang didn’t know, only he and Nalan Qianqiu were aware of it.
The ancient prescription that Nalan Qianqiu was studying was an attempt to find a way to cure his poisoning. Xiao Yi was able to determine the poison he was afflicted with in a single statement, and the last shred of doubt in Ning Luo’s heart also vanished.
With a respectful expression, he led the three to a reception room and said solemnly, "Master Xiao, please wait here for a moment, I will go and ask my master to come out!"
Inside the reception room.
Xiao Yi and his companions waited quietly. Yan Mingli asked with curiosity, "Master Xiao, the symptoms of Three-Flower Seven-Leaf Herb poisoning only manifest when the person is near death. How could you tell at a glance that Ning Luo was poisoned by the Three-Flower Seven-Leaf Herb?"
"It’s the scent on his body!" Xiao Yi said.
Yan Mingli was startled.
Xiao Yi explained calmly, "The Three-Flower Seven-Leaf Herb grows in extremely yin places, and where this herb grows, there must be a three-tailed bamboo leaf green snake nearby. This extremely poisonous snake likes to urinate on the herb, leaving a faint bamboo leaf fragrance. Just now, I smelled that tinge of bamboo leaf scent on Ning Luo..."
Clap clap clap!
A crisp round of applause followed.
In front of Ning Luo, an old man in plain clothes with white hair but a youthful face wore an appreciative look, "To deduce the Three-Flower Seven-Leaf Herb from that faint scent, Master Xiao’s understanding of medicinal herbs even surpasses that of this old man!"
"Master Nalan!" Yan Mingli quickly stood up and said respectfully.
Lin Bingxin bowed slightly as a greeting.
Xiao Yi cupped his hands towards Nalan Qianqiu and said, "Master Nalan is too kind!"
"No, no, no!"
Your journey continues on novelbuddy
Nalan Qianqiu shook his head, speaking earnestly, "Master Xiao, there’s no need for modesty. I wasn’t flattering, just stating the truth. Even I didn’t initially realize what poison Ning Luo had been afflicted with and had to consult many ancient texts before figuring it out!"
Xiao Yi replied modestly, "It was purely by accident!"

Nalan Qianqiu smiled and didn’t dwell on the matter any further, asking, "Master Xiao, Ning Luo tells me you have a way to cure the Three-Flower Seven-Leaf Herb poison?"
Three-Flower Seven-Leaf Herb, colorless, tasteless, extremely yin and chilling.
This poison is extremely terrifying!
The poisoned person won’t show any signs but will become very sensitive to heat, and only at the moment of death will their meridians burst and a pattern similar to the Three-Flower Seven-Leaf Herb appear on their body.
Ning Luo also discovered something was amiss due to his frequent handling of alchemical fires for his work as an alchemist.
This past month, he had been relying on Nalan Qianqiu’s medicine to suppress the toxins in his body; otherwise, he would have died from exploding veins long ago.
Nalan Qianqiu said with a guilty look, "I’ve consulted ancient texts but haven’t been able to find a cure for this poison. If Master Xiao can truly save Ning Luo’s life, Nalan Qianqiu would be eternally grateful!"
"Master..."
Ning Luo’s face was full of emotion, as he was an orphan who had been raised by Nalan Qianqiu since childhood.
He was not just a master to him, but even more a father!
Xiao Yi said, "Saving him is not difficult, but, I have a matter I would like Master Nalan to agree to!"
Nalan Qianqiu replied, "Master Xiao, feel free to speak. As long as it is within my capabilities, I would go through fire and water without hesitation!"
"I believe Master Nalan knows that Xiaoshanhe Institute is now in my hands."
Seeing Nalan Qianqiu nod, Xiao Yi continued, "I would like to establish cooperation with Treasure Pavilion, having Treasure Pavilion supply us with pills and medicinal herbs."
Nalan Qianqiu had been engrossed in researching ancient prescriptions lately and was not fully informed about the happenings within the imperial capital. Hearing this, he nodded and said, "I thought it was something serious, but it turns out to be merely a supply of pills and medicinal herbs. Rest assured, Master Xiao, my Treasure Pavilion..."
Just as Nalan Qianqiu seemed ready to agree, a faint voice came from outside the door, "Master Xiao, dragging Master Nalan to accompany you in death doesn’t seem too appropriate, does it?"
