“No.” An Jiuyue thought for a moment and shook her head.
“I’ll think of another way. I’m really worried about letting them out.”
If she allowed the two children to go outside, she wouldn’t have to spend her time refining medicine anymore. Instead, she would be constantly worrying about them.
“The warrior-servants are powerful, but they’re not real people. There are many things they can’t think of. I’m worried.”
“Let Yan Nuo accompany them,” Qian Jiyun suggested.
An Jiuyue looked up and glanced at him before shaking her head again.
Yan Nuo should be assigned to more important tasks. It was already a waste of his talent to have him hovering in front of her. She would not be able to get over it if he had to accompany the two children too.
“There’s no need for that. I can think of something. Let’s not talk about them anymore. I’ll leave the pastries here for them. They’ll eat them themselves. Let’s go back to our tent. I have something to ask you.” “Okay.” Qian Jiyun nodded.
They left the children’s tent and entered An Jiuyue’s tent…
“Jiyun, take a look at this.”
She placed a few lotus seeds on the table and asked Qian Jiyun.
“This is…
Qian Jiyun’s eyes lit up when he saw the lotus seeds of different colors on the table. He picked one up and studied it carefully.
“Could this be the legendary Seven-Colored Lotus Seeds?”
There were seven lotus seeds, including the one in his hand, and they each had a different vibrant color. Althoußh he had never seen lotus seeds with such bright colors, he had heard of them before.
“There’s a Hundred-Colored Lake on Huayan Peak where two types of lotuses grow. One of them is the Nine Poison Lotus, and every type of it is extremely poisonous, capable of killing anyone who comes into contact with them.
“The other is the Seven-Colored Lotus, which can detoxify all poisons. It’s said that eating seven different Seven-Colored Lotus Seeds can greatly increase one’s cultivation and provide immunity to all poisons for a certain time.” “It’s only a legend? Have you not seen it before?” An Jiuyue asked him.
“No.” Qian Jiyun placed the lotus seeds in his hand and shook his head.
“There are many gigantic fishes in Hundred-Colored Lake. They must have eaten the lotus seeds. Not only are they immune to all poisons, but they’re also poisonous. One could even die just from coming into contact with them.
“Even powerful demonic beasts, including those that can fly, dare not go near the Hundred-Colored Lake. These fishes can jump out of the water to attack their enemies.
“They treat the lotus seeds as their food. I’ve only seen the lotus pods and leaves from afar. These seven lotus seeds have the same colors as the Seven-Colored Lotus Seeds. Where did you get them?”
An Jiuyue was speechless.
Could she say she grew ordinary lotus roots, but they mutated and turned out like that?
Yes, she could.
“You’ve entered my space before. I planted regular lotus roots there, but they mutated and became these Seven-Colored Lotus Seeds.
“I thought they were poisonous back then, so I was careful not to let Zheng’er and Rong’er touch them. But now…”
No wonder she had been thinking that the two children’s cultivation speed was much faster than hers in the past two days. She wondered if they were more talented than her.
When she went to the pond today, she saw shells of peeled lotus seeds discarded there. The two children must have eaten them secretly..
