"So you two are here!" Chu Yin strode forward and stood before the three. Dugu Juechen nodded, while Liu Wenhao stood up somewhat nervously, cupped his hands, and made as if to kneel: "Your Highness Prince Jin, I am so sorry for not greeting you sooner!" Chu Yin stopped him: "No need for such formalities." He looked Liu Wenhao up and down: "You are General Liu's eldest son, Liu Wenhao?!"
"It is indeed me!" Liu Wenhao nodded in agreement. Chu Yin never paid attention to court affairs and was not familiar with the children of the various households, but Liu Wenhao's name was well-known. It was rare for someone so young to have cultivated to such a high level, so there was a lot of discussion about him. Moreover, Liu Wenhao's temperament and appearance seemed to indicate that he was someone worth befriending, so Chu Yin nodded: "Hmm, good!"
"Your Highness Prince Jin, please have a seat!" Liu Ruxuan also stood up, treating Chu Yin with great courtesy. After all, this was an era where certain rules still needed to be observed.
Chu Yin looked at Liu Ruxuan and smiled slightly: "Alright, you can all sit down too."
After they finished speaking, all three of them sat down, except for Dugu Juechen, who seemed to have never moved.
Chu Yin rarely interacted with people, and since he had finally met someone Dugu Juechen liked, he put aside his pride. Soon, the three of them were chatting animatedly. Dugu Juechen sat quietly and listened, sometimes wanting to laugh when Liu Ruxuan told a joke, but feeling too embarrassed to do so.
next day
Liu Ruxuan, carrying a white tiger shaped like a kitten, planned to go to the forbidden area of the Demon River to collect some herbs. She hadn't been out of the city long when she saw an old woman lying on the ground. Liu Ruxuan quickly ran over, squatted down, placed the white tiger on the ground, and took the old woman's pulse.
"Meow~~ Master, she was just bitten by a snake."
Liu Ruxuan knew the old man was poisoned by taking his pulse, and turned to Baihu: "Little kitty, how did you know?"
The white tiger stretched out its paw and pointed at the old man's calf: "So much blood has flowed out, and there are two teeth marks. If it wasn't a snake bite, what was it?"
“Vampires also have two teeth marks!” Liu Ruxuan immediately contradicted herself after saying that: “But there shouldn’t be any vampires in this world.”
"Master, what is a vampire?" The little white tiger tilted its head, its big eyes blinking rapidly, hitting Liu Ruxuan's cute spot perfectly. Damn it, this white tiger is really good at being cute! Liu Ruxuan ruthlessly picked up the white tiger and threw it at the old lady's feet, grinning mischievously: "Since you discovered it, then you can suck out the poison!"
"Master, it's not that I don't want to help you, but look at my teeth, they're only good for biting, not sucking!" The white tiger bared its teeth, revealing a set of sharp teeth to Liu Ruxuan. Liu Ruxuan saw that they really weren't suitable, and had no choice but to let it go.
Liu Ruxuan took out a bottle of pills from her bosom. These were second-grade antidote pills she had refined. The pills Liu Ruxuan refined were exceptionally pure, many times better than those of ordinary people. She poured one out and put it into the old woman's mouth, then went to the old woman's feet and lifted her skirt to reveal two small wounds.
Liu Ruxuan glanced at Baihu and without hesitation took a sip of the poison, before Baihu could stop her.
Liu Ruxuan sucked out mouthfuls of poisonous blood and spat them onto the ground.
Just then, a young man looked towards Liu Ruxuan from afar. Seeing that Liu Ruxuan was rescuing someone, he wanted to see if he could help, so he hurriedly ran a few steps. Liu Ruxuan was focused on rescuing the person and did not realize that someone was approaching, but the white tiger had long since sensed someone nearby and was watching the direction of the approaching person intently.
