“I’ll go back when he changes his mind. You’re not allowed to sell me out!” Cheng Xuan warned.

“But I think it’s more interesting to betray you.” Ning haolan’s face was full of regret.

“You … Have you forgotten our friendship? If you betray me, I will definitely drag you down with me. ” Cheng Xuan made up his mind and said ruthlessly.

“Are you threatening me?” Ning haolan was speechless.

“En!” Cheng Xuan nodded his head heavily, a smug smile still on his face.

“Little Lanlan, I think we’re all in the same boat. So, you can’t do anything that would harm others and not benefit yourself!” Cheng Xuan hugged ning haolan’s arm and spoke in a coquettish tone.

“I’ll consider it. ” Ning haolan said indifferently.

“There’s no need to think about it. If you dare to betray me, I’ll definitely reveal our relationship.” Cheng Xuan said with a smile.

“What’s our relationship?” Ning haolan was confused, and his handsome face was full of question marks.

“We’re very close. ” Cheng Xuan’s smile was ambiguous.

“Don’t talk nonsense!” Cheng Xuan’s words made ning haolan jump three times, and he broke out in a cold sweat.

“I’m going to see the ancestor. ” Ning haolan said, then disappeared.

“Don’t forget to get some information! I’ll be waiting for you!” Cheng Xuan shouted into the air. The servant beside him looked at his young master with sympathy. Poor young master! Your love life will be very bumpy, look! He had scared young master ning away.

Ning haolan heard Cheng Xuan’s words, but he could only pretend that he didn’t hear them. After all, it wasn’t that easy to get information from the old master. If they angered the old master, the entire ning family would be in deep trouble.

After they arrived at the forbidden grounds in the back mountain, ning haolan made his way slowly to the old Grand Madame’s courtyard after reporting his arrival.

At this time, the master of the ning family and the first elder were sitting in the courtyard and drinking tea.

When he saw ning haolan, master ning’s eyes twitched and he asked indifferently,””What are you doing here? Is there something important?”

“I’m only here to see the ancestor. ” Ning haolan said.

“Now that you’ve seen it, you can go back.” The master of the ning family said coldly.

“Uh!” Was he driving her away just like that? Ning haolan thought to himself gloomily. ‘The old master doesn’t want me anymore now that he has a new lover? This was a blatant case of liking the new over the old! Why was his life so bitter? He hadn’t seen the old ancestor for a few days, and he didn’t let him sit down even once before he was driven away.

“Hehe! Haolan’s here to see you, so you should at least let him sit for a while!” First elder tried to smooth things over when he saw the depressed ning haolan.

Hearing first elder speak up for him, ning haolan was so touched that he was about to cry. First elder was so understanding! Wu … The old ancestor had a heart of stone.

“What’s there to sit on? I’m annoyed!” The master of the ning family said unhappily. He had been annoyed these days because his precious goddaughter had actually given him a hard time. Therefore, he was in a very bad mood, and these descendants of the ning family just happened to become the target of his venting.

“If old forefather has any troubles, you can tell haolan. Who knows, haolan might be able to help you.” Ning haolan said carefully. People always said that a woman’s heart was as hard as the sea. In his opinion, the old ancestor’s heart was the true Needle at the Bottom of the Sea! The low pressure in the ning family these few days had made many people breathless.

“Solve my worries? These unfilial descendants of the ning family, I’ll be lucky if they don’t anger me to death. ” The master of the ning family said angrily.

“Ancestor! Anger is harmful to the body. ” Ning haolan said softly. Actually, he knew that the old ancestor was angry because someone had poisoned him during the family competition. However, they had yet to find the key witness, Ning Wen, so he had no way of finding the real mastermind behind Ning Wen.

“You don’t have to tell me that. Go and do your business.” The master of the ning family urged.

“Yes, ancestor! I’ll take my leave first. ” Ning haolan said helplessly, then turned to leave.

After ning haolan left, the Grand Elder looked at the head of the ning family disapprovingly,””Why are you venting your anger on that child, haolan? this matter has nothing to do with him.”

“How could it not have anything to do with him? Ning Wen is his attendant. If it wasn’t for me, those elders would have eaten him. It just so happens that some people can’t find any evidence against him!” The master of the ning family said, exasperated at Ning Wen’s failure to live up to his expectations. Although the poisoning incident had infuriated him, he was even angrier at the fact that the heir he had set his eyes on had been so careless, allowing someone to take advantage of the situation. If Ning Wen could not be found, and someone continued to press on with the matter, then Hao LAN would definitely be in a very passive position. The prestige that he had painstakingly built up among the family members would also fall. He had nurtured Hao LAN for so many years, and this was not something he wanted to see.

“It’s useless to be angry now that things have come to this!” The first elder consoled him and then changed the topic,”I don’t know if Xue ‘er can refine the antidote. I’m really looking forward to it!”

At the mention of Leng ruoxue, the master of the ning family, who was burning with anger, immediately became listless. Actually, there was another reason for his anger, and it was Leng ruoxue. Although Xue ‘er had never complained to him about Ning Shan’s injury, he knew that Xue’ er was angry. Now that Xue ‘er’s entire mind was focused on refining the antidote for the soul-forgetting pill, she had not found time to settle the score with the ning family yet!

After Leng ruoxue asked him for the formula for soul! Forgetting and some herbs, she had been hiding in her room and had not come out. He wondered how she was doing now. He was very uneasy. If Xue ‘er did not refine the antidote for soul-forgetting, some people in the ning family would be in deep trouble! Wu … Please don’t vent your anger on him!

As master ning’s mind was running wild, Leng ruoxue had already entered the purple Bamboo Room in the bracelet and was trying to concoct the antidote for the soul-forgetting pill …

In the alchemy room of the purple bamboo house, Leng ruoxue sat on the futon and concocted the forgotten soul according to the formula. Then, she followed the medicinal herbs on the formula and chose the herbs that were compatible with and countered each other. She then carried out countless experiments …

There were a total of fifty-eight medicinal herbs in the formula of the forgotten soul. Except for the main herb, the forgotten soul grass, only a few of the other medicinal herbs were relatively precious. Most of them were ordinary medicinal herbs. However, even ordinary medicinal herbs had medicinal herbs that were compatible with and countered each other. Therefore, just matching these medicinal herbs took her nearly a day’s time. After she found all the medicinal herbs, she had to experiment again and again according to the proportion of medicinal herbs …

Leng ruoxue placed piles and piles of herbs into the pill furnace seriously. She watched as they went through the process of melting, purification, pill condensation and the final tempering. Even though the first few steps were very successful, all her efforts were wasted at the last step of forming the pill. She could not help but feel a little vexed. However, she did not feel relieved because she knew very well that Ning Shan was still waiting for the antidote. Therefore, she had to make the pill.
