"Ding-dong!"

【Sushang】: "Okay, I will be transferred to Exalting Sanctum next."

"Exalting Sanctum."

Looking at the message from Sushang, Lin Mo raised his eyebrows.

Sushang coming to Exalting Sanctum would be quite helpful to him.

Thinking this, Lin Mo looked at the message from Guinaifen.

【Guinaifen】: "Lin Mo, I don't know what to film next. I found that besides the video of 'Shang Ziwei', the popularity of the other few videos isn't that high. I feel my popularity seems to be decreasing. Although I'm satisfied with having so many fans, I don't know how to do it for some directions."

【Guinaifen】: "Can you tell me more about the detailed aspects? Like how to do this video, how to do that video, sorry. jpg."

Seeing the message from Guinaifen, Lin Mo replied simply: "That's no problem, when I'm free, I'll communicate with you. I don't have time now, I'm quite busy."

【Guinaifen】: "Okay, okay, then I'll wait first, it's not urgent these few days, Lin Mo, you go ahead and get busy."

【Guinaifen】: "I know the Stellaron erupted, the Luofu Cloud Knights are very busy now, Sushang is so busy she doesn't even have time to help me film videos."

Looking at Guinaifen's message, Lin Mo continued to click on Bai Lu's chat box and walked toward the direction where Bai Lu was.

"Have you heard? Lady Bai Lu of the Alchemy Commission ran out again."

"Is this the nth time? It's normal, right?"

"Speaking of which, Lady Bai Lu only ran out this one time recently, don't know why the Earth-Bound Commission is making such a big fuss."

"It should be related to the Glazed Bagt that the Alchemy Commission has. It is said that the Alchemy Commission's cave abode now has Glazed Bagt growing everywhere, densely packed like weeds."

"It seems this Glazed Bagt is held by Lady Bai Lu, but it also doesn't seem to be made by Lady Bai Lu. Don't know what the situation is. The alchemists on the Alchemy Commission side haven't given a definite word until now."

When Lin Mo was looking for Bai Lu along the place where she was, one discussion after another rang out continuously.

People passing by discussed Bai Lu from time to time, making Lin Mo rub his eyebrows.

It seems the commotion of Bai Lu's escape this time isn't small.

Soon, Lin Mo arrived at a remote place.

This place was far from the hustle and bustle, with no human voice around, only the whispers of nature and the occasional sound of wind whispering in his ears.

The building in front of him was an independent wooden house; it seemed to have experienced many years of wind and frost, but still stood firmly there.

The appearance of the wooden house was simple, built with dark wood, the walls slightly mottled, reminding people of stories with long years.

The roof was traditional sloped tiles, covered with moss between the tiles, showing a different kind of vitality.

The design of the wooden house was simple and practical, with round lamps standing on both sides of the door. Although they weren't lit at this moment, one could imagine that when night fell, the warm light they emitted would definitely be a beacon in this loneliness.

The windows were tightly closed, and dew had condensed on the window frames, reflecting the brilliance of the morning light.

There were no complex decorations in front of the door, only a path paved with a few slightly worn stone slabs leading directly to the entrance, with unpruned weeds on both sides, swaying gently with the wind.

Looking at the wooden house in front of him, Lin Mo looked at the location Bai Lu sent on his phone again and knocked immediately.

The sound of "dong dong dong" rang out for a time.

"No one here?!"

As the knocking sound rang out, a somewhat muffled voice suddenly rang out: "No, no, who are you."

"It's me."

Hearing Bai Lu's words, Lin Mo smiled and said: "Come out, there's no one else around."

"Lin Mo?!"

Before Lin Mo finished speaking, the door suddenly opened with a "click", and Bai Lu ran out full of excitement.

Looking at Lin Mo in front of her, Bai Lu immediately hugged Lin Mo excitedly: "Finally saw you, this lady is starving to death, why did you come so late!"

Saying this, Bai Lu's tone was a bit complaining.

"So I bought meat skewers on the way."

Lin Mo smiled and handed the meat skewers he bought casually to Bai Lu, making Bai Lu look happy: "You still know how to consider for this lady."

Lin Mo actually brought food.

Without any hesitation, Bai Lu immediately reached out to take them and started gnawing.

Bai Lu ate the meat skewers in big mouthfuls, looking like she had no lady-like appearance at all.

This also proved from the side that Bai Lu was really hungry.

And Lin Mo rubbed Bai Lu's head and looked at the other alchemist woman in front of him.

Wearing an exquisite long dress, the dress was mainly green with varying shades, decorated with wave-like white patterns, as if it were the white dew faintly visible between the tender leaves newly grown in spring, both fresh and vivid. The skirt was flowing, fitting the body, showing her well-proportioned figure.

Her long hair was neatly tied behind her ears, revealing her forehead, looking capable and professional.

Her face was peaceful, and her eyes revealed a gentle firmness, as if no matter what kind of difficulties she faced, she could treat them with the greatest patience and care.

Hanging around her neck was a medical symbol ornament, simple yet exquisite, further setting off her identity as an alchemist.

"Traitor of the Disciples of Sanctus Medicus, Banxia."

Looking at the woman in front of him, Lin Mo nodded gently: "Hello."

"What are you talking about!?"

Hearing Lin Mo's words, Banxia, who was walking out, heard this, her face changed drastically, and she retreated immediately.

But the next second, she pretended to be calm and said: "I am Banxia, but I don't know any Disciples of Sanctus Medicus. Did you recognize the wrong person?"

"Yeah, Brother Lin Mo."

Bai Lu next to her also hurriedly said: "Sister Banxia is a medical worker, how could she be a Disciple of Sanctus Medicus."

"Someone is looking for you outside."

Lin Mo spoke slowly: "When I came, I saw two alchemists wearing Alchemy Commission clothes looking for someone; they must be looking for you. I don't have any malice toward you, after all, you really took care of Bai Lu."

"The Disciples of Sanctus Medicus are hateful, but now your body won't survive long. You have been taking the prescriptions of the Disciples of Sanctus Medicus for a long time, and the signs of Mara-Struck on your body are becoming more and more obvious. You might not even last today."

Hearing Lin Mo's words, Banxia, who was pretending to be calm, turned pale.

She didn't expect Lin Mo to know so many secrets about her.

Lin Mo's words were like a heavy hammer, violently hitting Banxia's heart, and her face instantly became extremely pale.

The professional and calm expression was gone, replaced by disbelief and panic.

Her eyes wandered in front of Lin Mo, as if looking for a path to escape reality.

"How could it be..."

Banxia's voice was so low it was almost inaudible, her fingers involuntarily grabbing her skirt tightly, with such force that her fingertips turned white.

She knew her physical condition well and understood the consequences of the Disciples of Sanctus Medicus's prescriptions, but she never thought that all this would be seen through so easily.

"You... how did you know?" Banxia's voice trembled, her eyes full of horror and confusion.

She had hidden it so well for a long time, and even her colleagues around her hadn't noticed.

Lin Mo's accuracy made her feel unprecedented panic, as if all her secrets had nowhere to hide, exposed naked in the broad daylight.

In her heart, not only was there suspicion and fear of Lin Mo, but also helplessness about her future fate.

Relying on secret prescriptions for a long time, her body had long been eroded, yet she couldn't stop—this was an unsolvable dead knot.

Lin Mo's appearance not only touched her secrets but was also like a foreshadowing of her fate, making her feel deep fear and despair about her days today.

She hadn't even persisted to what she should have done.

"Sister Banxia, is a Disciple of Sanctus Medicus?!"

Bai Lu heard Lin Mo's words, and seeing Banxia's reaction, her face changed, and her fists clenched slightly: "So, Sister Banxia has been lying to me, right?"

"I'm sorry, Lady Bai Lu."

Hearing Bai Lu's words, Banxia came back to her senses, adjusted her psychology, and said in a low voice: "I'm sorry, I lied to you, but I don't have any malice toward you. I just wanted you to help me treat my short-lived lover."

"Although I was a Disciple of Sanctus Medicus before, I haven't done anything harmful to heaven and reason. Please, Lady Bai Lu, help me."

Speaking of this, Banxia was already kneeling on the ground, kowtowing to Bai Lu.

"You, get up first."

Bai Lu was at a loss in the face of Banxia's appearance, hurriedly pulling Banxia up.

"Only Lady Bai Lu can help me now."

Banxia kowtowed while pleading: "I don't want Lady Bai Lu to treat me; I already know I don't have much time left. I want to ask you to treat my lover; my lover is innocent."

"This, this is something I already promised you; I can definitely do it."

Bai Lu hurriedly said: "You get up first."

Bai Lu, who was originally very angry, softened a bit in the face of Banxia's appearance.

Because Banxia really hadn't hurt her.

"Thank you, Lady Bai Lu."
