Chapter 564 - 564 Would Not Keep Her



“What happened? Who asked her to come back?”

Qian Jiyun was questioning Yan Jin. He did not instruct Yan Jin to bring her back, right?

Did this antidote pill require a specific person to feed it to Zhao Wei’an to work? He stared at Yan Jin with an ambiguous gaze.

“Master, Ye Chenglin said she forgot where she kept the antidote pill.”

Yan Jin gulped secretly and told him what Ye Chenglin had said. He would let his master judge who was right and who was wrong.

“Forgot?”

Qian Jiyun lowered the curtain with one hand and walked out slowly.

“A medicine refiner can even forget where she kept her medicinal pills? You’re really capable, aren’t you? What’s the use of having a subordinate like you?”

He approached Ye Chenglin and asked, staring into her eyes.

“I… I…”

Ye Chenglin felt a chill run down her spine as he stared at her. The hairs on her body stood on end, and she wanted to retreat instinctively.

However, she suddenly remembered that she had to go to the Spirit Severing Cliff to kill demonic beasts every day. It was a dangerous place. She did not want to die there.

No matter how terrifying a person was, they would cease to be in the face of death.

After all, going to the Spirit Severing Cliff meant facing death.

She took a deep breath and said to Qian Jiyun, “Master, Yan Jin is spouting nonsense. How can I not remember where I keep my medicinal pills? I know where it is.”

She knew where she kept it but would not take it out now. She would only do so if her master agreed to her request.

She knew her brother’s abilities. He could withstand the poison for a while, no matter how potent it was.

Besides, although there were no intermediate, high-grade antidote pills in the camp, there were intermediate, medium-grade ones.

Taking one pill could prolong his life for a while.

“Where is it?” Qian Jiyun asked coldly.

“No, I can’t tell you.” Ye Chenglin shook her head.

Of course, she could not tell him. That antidote pill was her lifeline. If she told him where it was now, she would not be able to bargain with him to let her return to the camp.

“You can’t tell me?!”

Qian Jiyun looked at her coldly, his stare almost burning holes in her body.

This was his subordinate! Yet she actually told him that she would not tell him!

“Do you want to die?” he asked coldly.

“I… I…” Ye Chenglin gulped in fear, not daring to meet the man’s gaze.

Although Qian Jiyun had scared her half to death, she did not lose sight of her goal: to return to the camp from the Spirit Severing Cliff.

“Please forgive me, Master.”

She gritted her teeth and knelt down before Qian Jiyun.

“Master, I1 know I was wrong. I’m willing to apologize to you and Mistress for my mistake. Please retract your order and don’t send me to the Spirit Severing Cliff again. I really can’t survive there.”

Qian Jiyun’s gaze became even more obscure.

Even if Ye Chenglin had not disrespected her superiors and offended An Jiuyue, he would not keep her based on how she spoke to him while using her name as a first-person pronoun2.

“So you’re unwilling to hand over the antidote pill?” he questioned coldly.

“I—”

Ye Chenglin opened her mouth and took a deep breath before speaking.

“As long as Master agrees to let me return to the camp and promises not to let me go to the protected grounds again, I’ll hand over the antidote immediately,” she said.
