Found the treasure

"Ah!" Su Qi shook his head and closed his eyes, finally feeling relieved. If his father had come a moment later, it would have been a consequence he didn't want to face in his lifetime.

After using the toilet, Mu Yunxuan carefully carried Su Qi back to the bed.

"Where is your mother?"

"Father, you're already thinking about mother after such a short while."

Su Qi's delicate face smiled with a hidden meaning as he looked at Mu Yunxuan.

"You, naughty, teasing even your father."

Mu Yunxuan affectionately pinched Su Qi's cute nose.

"Father, you've been behaving well lately, and mother's temper has improved a lot. Qi'er has been enjoying the benefits too. Mother has gone to make something delicious for Qi'er."

Upon hearing this, a hint of worry flashed in Mu Yunxuan's eyes.

"Your mother is also injured."

"What? That bastard dared to hurt my mother?"

Su Qi sat up excitedly, but it pulled on his wound, causing him to grimace in pain.

"Ouch!" Su Qi rolled his eyes. Impulsiveness is the devil. How could he forget that he also had a wound on his body?

"Qi'er, why are you getting so excited? With such force, your wound must have reopened. Does it hurt?" Mu Yunxuan helped Su Qi lie back down and asked in a concerned voice.

"It hurts!" Su Qi's face contorted in pain.

But looking at his father's face filled with concern, he felt warm inside.

"Qi'er, let me come out."

Fire Silver said loudly.

Su Qi furrowed his brows. He was in so much pain right now that he could barely catch his breath, and Fire Silver wanted to come out and cause trouble.

"Oh dear! Qi'er, please let me come out first?"

Fire Silver pleaded.

"Then come out!" Su Qi took a deep breath. It really hurt.

Fire Silver flew out, holding a red pill in its mouth, emitting a tempting fragrance and rich spiritual energy.

"What's this? Fire Silver, where did you get it?"

Su Qi turned his head and looked at Fire Silver.

Mu Yunxuan took the red pill out of its mouth. The pill was red and had a very attractive luster.

"Feed it to Qi'er quickly. Qi'er's wound will heal quickly with this." Fire Silver looked proudly at Su Qi. This was a good thing! Following the principle of sharing good fortune, Fire Silver specifically prepared it for Qi'er. Qi'er was her little master, how could she let him suffer from pain?

"Fire Silver, you have to tell me what kind of pill this is. Pills shouldn't be taken randomly."

Su Qi actually trusted Fire Silver a lot because it was familiar with herbs. Besides eating some demon beasts, Fire Silver ate herbs the most.

Seeing the precious look on Fire Silver's face, Su Qi knew that it must be something valuable. "Qi'er, don't underestimate this pill. It's definitely worth a lot. It probably takes at least a hundred thousand gold to refine this pill. This is a life-saving pill." Fire Silver said proudly and triumphantly.

"One swallow is worth a hundred thousand gold, tsk tsk!" Su Qi shook his head. "After hearing you say that, I can't bring myself to take this pill. If I take it, I'll be the first prodigal in my mother's eyes."

"You brat, do you think your mother is the kind of person who wouldn't treat your injury for the sake of money? A mere hundred thousand gold, your mother can afford it." An impatient voice came from outside the door, as cold as a plum's faint fragrance.

Mu Yunxuan looked in astonishment at Su Zi Mo who was walking slowly towards them. She wore a flowing white dress, loose and ethereal, her soft hair casually drifting behind her, reaching her waist. No matter how she dressed, she was the kind of person who couldn't be forgotten after just one look.

"Mo'er, you're also injured. Why did you have to cook yourself?" Mu Yunxuan smiled softly and got up to support her.

Su Zi Mo glared at Fire Silver. The damn thing should disappear now that she was here, but she wasn't as scared of it as before since she had been seeing it frequently.

"Ah!" Su Qi sighed. He had been really unlucky lately. He hadn't said a bad word about his mother for so many days, but today, she happened to hear it.

"Why are you sighing at such a young age?"

Su Zi Mo gave him a displeased look. Just as things were getting a little better, Qi'er had to show his annoying habits again.

"Mother, Qi'er was just sighing."

"Take the pill." Su Zi Mo ordered. After all, it was given by Fire Silver, and she didn't need to pay for it with gold.

"Take the pill." Su Zi Mo ordered. After all, it was given by Fire Silver, and she didn't need to pay for it with gold.

"Oh!" Su Qi obediently opened his mouth, and Mu Yunxuan put the pill inside. As the pill entered his mouth, a faint pear fragrance filled his mouth.

Before long, his body began to feel warm.

Fire Silver looked at it and said lightly, "Qi'er, this pill has probably been refined for a hundred years. I wonder if its efficacy is still there?"

"What? You dare to give me a pill that has been matured for a hundred years. If it kills me, can you bear the consequences?" Su Qi angrily shouted at Fire Silver, unaware that the pain in his chest had subsided.

Mu Yunxuan and Su Zi Mo also looked at Fire Silver with suspicion. This pill had been around for a hundred years, and Su Zi Mo wondered if its shelf life had expired.

Being yelled at by Su Qi like this, Fire Silver's fiery red eyes were filled with grievances.

"Qi'er, listen to me before getting angry! This is the Blood Essence Pill. You have already reached the second stage of the Gold Profound Realm, but you have been stuck at a bottleneck recently, unable to advance. And rest assured, this pill was personally refined by me a hundred years ago, and it contains my blood. The pill is round, glossy, and reddish. Those who consume this Blood Essence Pill can freely possess battle intent within their bodies, transform into Profound Tools, and after reaching the peak of the Gold Profound Realm, they can quickly advance to the Saint Profound Realm as long as they receive a little external impact."

"Wow! Hearing you say that, it sounds amazing. I didn't know there was such a pill in the world. Fire Silver, how did you come across the formula for this pill?"

As Fire Silver explained, Su Qi's concerns vanished, replaced by curiosity about the pill.

"Qi'er, although you have learned alchemy techniques, they are only superficial. How about this? After you recover, I will teach you some pill formulas. Qi'er, you will definitely benefit greatly from it."

Su Zi Mo and Mu Yunxuan exchanged glances, realizing that Qi'er had stumbled upon a treasure.

What surprised them even more was that Fire Silver could actually refine pills.

"That's great! I may not like many things, but alchemy for healing and saving lives is my favorite."

Su Qi grinned. He suddenly realized that this pill was truly effective, as his wound no longer hurt like before.

"It's because of your kind persistence, Qi'er, that I chose you to be my master. What's more fortunate is that you are also an alchemist."

"Contracts are based on fate. Your encounter with Qi'er shows that there is a bond between you. But do you have any more Blood Essence Pills?"

Mu Yunxuan asked.

Fire Silver glanced at Mu Yunxuan and knew what he wanted to do.

"No, there's only one. Give it to Qi'er."

Upon hearing this, Mu Yunxuan's eyes flickered with disappointment.

"Master, Qi'er's breakfast is ready."

At this moment, Qinglian came in carrying a small table, followed by Yusu, who carried some food.

"Wow! Thank you, Aunt Qinglian, thank you, Aunt Yusu!" Su Qi looked at the braised pork ribs, and his mouth watered. He was eager to eat.

"Wow! Mother, there's a secret dish." Su Qi widened his eyes. The so-called secret dish was given the name by his mother. Since he couldn't eat spicy food due to his injury, his mother prepared a plate of braised pig ears for him, which included several delicious meats combined together, his favorite!

"Don't talk about these dish names! And that 'Woman at Forty,' many customers order it because of the name, but when it arrives at the table, they're all dumbfounded," Yusu said with a smile.

Mu Yunxuan, however, looked puzzled. "Secret dish? Woman at Forty? Are there such strange dish names?"

Mu Yunxuan suddenly realized that he had been quite ignorant. He had come into contact with other industries of the Mingyue Villa, but he hadn't had a chance to explore the food.

"Saint Lord, you don't know. Our Mingyue Restaurant's business is mostly driven by these dish names. For example, 'Woman at Forty' is actually a plate of cold-dressed cauliflowers, and 'Stars Surrounding the Moon' is a combination of nuts and peanuts."

Yusu explained once again.

Meanwhile, Su Qi withdrew Fire Silver into his dantian and began to feast, occasionally making satisfied sounds.

"Momo, how did you come up with these strange dish names?" Mu Yunxuan looked at her with gentle and shining eyes.

"This... is a secret!" Su Zi Mo's face showed a hint of uneasiness. She couldn't tell them that she borrowed them from the 21st century!

"A secret...?" Mu Yunxuan smiled and looked at her. It seemed like another secret she couldn't reveal. How many secrets did Momo have?

"By the way, Momo, come with me. I want to show you something."

Mu Yunxuan suddenly remembered the book Yun Han had sent him, and he wanted to study it together with Momo.

"Okay." Su Zi Mo nodded. She also had something to discuss with him.

"Qinglian, Yusu, stay here with Qi'er. Don't let him become restless."

"Mother, why do you always say that your son is restless? It's not Qi'er's fault this time."

Su Qi mumbled with a mouthful of food, looking aggrieved.
