Chapter 414 Only Three Days Left!_1

Yu Mingmiao hopped and skipped all the way back to her home, her mood exceptionally beautiful.

"Didn’t I tell you not to go out anymore?"

A sudden voice made Yu Mingmiao’s delicate body tremble slightly.

Feeling guilty, she looked toward the sofa, only to see a beautiful woman sitting there, her makeup impeccable and her presence commanding.

"Mom..."

Yu Mingmiao softly began, her gaze shifty, not daring to look the beautiful woman in the eyes.

The beautiful woman stood up and walked toward Yu Mingmiao, "Why can’t you ever be honest? I told you not to go out, yet you still sneak out every day."

"I went to see that guy..."

Yu Mingmiao answered back.

"You!"

The beautiful woman was clearly agitated.

She regretted deeply, she shouldn’t have told her daughter about this when she returned to the Imperial Capital!

"That person is not someone you can deal with. Stop looking for trouble with him!"

"I’m not going to bother him anymore..."

Yu Mingmiao replied subconsciously, and then looked at the beautiful woman with great anticipation, "Mom, do you know who he is?"

The beautiful woman was startled and didn’t understand what Yu Mingmiao was talking about.

"He’s the little boy that dad took me to meet on the mountain that year!"

Yu Mingmiao said excitedly, her cheeks flushed, "And he still has... he still has our marriage certificate!"

Upon hearing this, the beautiful woman fell silent.

Yu Mingmiao had been betrothed since she was young, and her mother was naturally aware of it.

But what she didn’t expect was that Yin Tian was actually that child from those years!

The beautiful woman suddenly laughed, "So that’s it, such a coincidence, no wonder he has some abilities. If he’s that man’s disciple, it would make sense."

Yu Mingmiao looked at the beautiful woman in confusion, not understanding what she was talking about.

"Alright, your eagerly awaited fiancé has come to the Imperial Capital. Now you won’t have to drone on about it to me every day. If you get the chance, bring him home for a visit."

The beautiful woman waved her hand and stood up, sauntering toward her own room with a swaying grace.

As for Yu Mingmiao, the moment she heard her mother say that she could bring Yin Tian home, she stopped thinking, her heart ablaze with excitement. She hadn’t expected her mother to agree so easily...

The next morning, Yin Tian had already risen early, waiting for news.

As time ticked by, Yin Tian heard one piece of good news after another from Lu Zhengfeng, Sir Li, and Sir Niu.

By noon, the ingredients for the antidote to Heart-corroding Bone-softening Powder had almost been gathered.

Only one last herb remained, and he would be able to start preparing the antidote, and then save Su Qinwei’s life.

However, it was this very last herb that Chen Gu had been waiting a full day and night for and had still not received any news!

Yin Tian had thought that if there was going to be a shortage of herbs, it definitely wouldn’t be this one. He didn’t expect that even the rarer herbs had been found, but this particular herb, which he hadn’t given much thought to, remained elusive.

Before he knew it, another night had passed.

Yin Tian still had not received news of that herb.

And in the course of these nearly two days and nights, the effects of the Heart-corroding Bone-softening Powder Su Qinwei was afflicted with began to manifest.

She lay on the bed, her face pale and unable to move, feeling soreness throughout her body, and even breathing caused her intense pain.

Yin Tian sat by Su Qinwei’s side, watching her pitiable state, his heart aching.

"I’ll give you an acupuncture treatment, try to sleep for a while."

Yin Tian said softly to Su Qinwei.

Su Qinwei closed her eyes, nodding faintly in agreement with Yin Tian’s suggestion.

Yin Tian immediately took out his needles and inserted them into several key points on Su Qinwei’s body.

The effect was apparent. In just a few minutes, the sound of Su Qinwei’s steady breathing could be heard.

Seeing Su Qinwei asleep, Chen Yu and the other girls who had been standing by anxiously turned their worried gazes to Yin Tian, "Yin Tian, what are we going to do about Qinwei looking like this..."

Yin Tian’s brows were deeply furrowed, his expression extremely grave, "If we can’t find the antidote, she will need to endure this pain for at least three more days."

"After three days, when the Heart-corroding Bone-softening Powder fully takes effect, Qinwei’s bones will begin to soften and crumble, unable to withstand any force. She won’t even be able to stand..."

"Doesn’t that mean we only have three days left?"

Ye Qinghuang covered her mouth with her hand, letting out a startled cry.

Yin Tian nodded solemnly.

All he needed was the last herb, and he would be able to prepare the antidote to cure Su Qinwei.

But if three days passed, even if he did prepare the antidote, the Heart-corroding Bone-softening Powder’s effects on Su Qinwei’s body would still be massive, bound to leave severe aftereffects.

Clang!

A gentle noise came from outside the window, probably the sound of a pebble hitting the glass.

Yin Tian was taken aback, then stood up and walked towards the window, catching sight of Yu Mingmiao outside, looking up at him.

Yin Tian managed a weak smile at Yu Mingmiao and then headed downstairs.
