Chapter 1713: Chapter 1712: Mrs. Gu’s Affairs

However, the Zhao family did not stand out among this group of people, because at the time the Zhao family head explicitly abandoned Lady Zhao and Zhao Lan. Even the mistress of the house was forsaken, so Qiao Xiaomai didn’t believe the Zhao family had the guts to spread such rumors and directly confront Yang Wenxiao.

But the impossible happened—the Zhao family actually colluded with Bei Yun.

And now Bei Yun had easily sold them out.

“Alright, now you can tell me about the Divine Liquid. And remember, don’t lie to me about a single word. This time I’ll really make you eat poison,” Bei Yun said, his voice dripping with warning.

Qiao Xiaomai took a deep breath. “Can I first share this information with the others over there?”

“No, you cannot.” Bei Yun rejected her decisively.

This answer was expected by Qiao Xiaomai. She sighed and began recounting the events of the past.

The topic started with the war over Mount Jiang decades ago. “There really exists a divine medicine that can instantly heal wounds. As long as the person still has a single breath left, no matter how severe the injury or how potent the poison, it can restore them to full health.”

Hearing this, suspicion flashed across Bei Yun’s face.

“The Divine Liquid has been consumed by the Emperor Emeritus and Tong Sanlang. You’ve always wondered how the poison of the Soul Chasing Root was neutralized, haven’t you? Tong Sanlang was able to expel the Soul Chasing Root thanks to the Divine Liquid.”

“And as for the issue regarding the Hell Flower within the Yang family’s lineage—you’ve been wondering how the Hell Flower’s curse was resolved, haven’t you? It was also through the Divine Liquid. That time, the Emperor Emeritus personally went to the secret tunnel in Anping Village, waiting for Lady Gu.”

Qiao Xiaomai began narrating the story of Lady Gu, though she chose to conceal certain details, such as those about space and time travel, while sharing everything else she could.

The Heavenly Way governs the balance of all things in this world. Some suffer while others enjoy blessings. This may seem unfair, but this life, the past life, and the future life are interconnected. Those who do good deeds in this life will naturally be rewarded in their next, while those who commit evil will inevitably face retribution in their next life.

This isn’t mere feudal superstition—it’s something firmly grounded in reality. The upgrades to her space and the existence of the Divine Liquid serve as proof.

“Didn’t you once say you hoped Lady Gu would materialize and slap you to death? But her movements are unpredictable—she could be overseas now, or on another part of the continent. Still, if she does show up, given how you’ve captured me and committed so much evil, she will definitely strike you dead with a single slap.”

Bei Yun: “…”

He narrowed his eyes. “How much truth is there in your words?”

“Every word is true. If I’m lying, you won’t need to act—I’ll take the poison myself.”

“And as for the secret behind the food I’ve prepared—yes, she told me about a universal formula. Using her formula, I crafted Floral Dew that can adapt to anyone’s constitution and suppress the strange poison in your body.”

“This isn’t human power. Just like you and Lingsu—even though you’re divine doctors, can you create medicine that adapts to all bodies? Can you craft Floral Dew that suppresses every kind of poison?”

“The answer is no. You can’t, because you’re merely human.”

“This is the power of gods. This falls within the realm of Divine Power.”

“In this world, gods truly exist.”

“You may not respect or revere life, but you must maintain respect and reverence for the divine.”

“I’m telling you all of this because if you hadn’t committed so many evildoings, given my connection with Lingsu, I could’ve asked Lady Gu for a single drop of Divine Liquid to detoxify your body.”
