Chapter 1383: Chapter 1383: Ding Dong, The Blackhearted Apothecary Arrives!
Feng Xuan clenched his hand tightly.
Bai Sheng laughed out loud.
"Look how nervous you are. Do you believe your own words?"
Feng Xuan’s body grew increasingly rigid.
Bai Sheng took out a bag of silver coins.
Threw it in front of Feng Xuan.
"This is for you."
"For what purpose?"
"To thank you for serving Su Yan so anxiously for so long. Think of it as your payment.
In the future, you still need to take good care of her. After all, I can’t always be by her side to take care of her."
Feng Xuan looked down at the money bag.
His pale face showed no expression.
Just his back straight and tense.
As if any movement would betray the emotions within his heart.
After a long time, he spoke.
"Do you like the master?"
Bai Sheng straightened his sleeves.
"Your master is my savior.
I need to do something for her.
You just need to serve her well. The rest is between me and your master."
Feng Xuan’s eyelashes fluttered, his eyelids lowered, but eventually he reached out to take the money bag.
Bai Sheng frowned at first.
Apparently surprised that he actually took it.
"I really don’t understand why she keeps someone like you, who lacks backbone and temper."
Then continued with another sentence.
"Perhaps she thinks you’re too pitiful, so don’t harbor illusions.
You’re not worthy of her."
The voice was very definite.
The meal had long been served.
Breakfast was placed on a tray, originally Feng Xuan was going to carry it up.
Perhaps it was Bai Sheng’s words that had struck him, he still hadn’t gotten up to leave.
His body was rigid as he sat there.
At this time, he heard the sound of footsteps at the stairs.
Su Yan walked down from above.
She had waited for a long time upstairs without seeing Feng Xuan return.
Afraid that something had happened to him.
She came down to check.
As soon as she came down, she saw him sitting there rigidly.
With his head down, not knowing what he was thinking.
Su Yan walked over, puzzled.
"What’s wrong?"
Feng Xuan looked up, his eyes fixed on Su Yan.
His pale lips trembled slightly.
"Master."
In a low voice, as he stood up from his seat, giving way to Su Yan.
Su Yan reached out and pulled him to sit down.
She looked at him closely for a while.
He seemed healthy, not coughing at all.
Could it be that biting her all morning had left him exhausted???
Su Yan’s attention was entirely on Feng Xuan.
She just noticed someone sitting opposite Feng Xuan.
Not knowing who it was.
Until Bai Sheng spoke.
"Thank you, savior, for rescuing me again."
When he spoke, Su Yan realized, oh, it was him.
Conversely, Feng Xuan, upon hearing Bai Sheng call her savior, lifted his eyelid.
His dark eyes looked directly over, his gaze indifferent.
But quickly, he lowered his head again.
Su Yan thought of the situation.
"The Demon Sect Leader has been killed, now it’s leaderless, the perfect opportunity for you to ascend."
Bai Sheng clasped his hands together in a fist.
"Bai Sheng understands, thank you for your concern, savior."
Upon hearing his words, it seemed he had a plan, so she asked.
"How long will it take you to ascend to the position of Demon Sect Leader?"
Bai Sheng thought carefully, then spoke.
"If all goes smoothly, at the latest a month."
Su Yan nodded.
"Alright."
Bai Sheng hesitated.
"Savior has rescued me multiple times, and now seeks to assist Bai Sheng in taking the leader’s position, such a great kindness, I don’t know how to repay."
Su Yan looked at him earnestly.
"Becoming the Demon Sect Leader would already repay the debt."
As the words fell, a gleam flashed in Bai Sheng’s eyes.
Just about to speak.
Feng Xuan started coughing.
"Cough cough cough cough cough cough"
One after another, his long dark eyelashes fluttered with each cough.
Su Yan’s attention was drawn over.
She reached out to pat his back.
Poured him a bowl of tea along the way.
