Chapter 193 Returning to Youthful State
Zhao Haoxuan thought to himself that although the future days would be full of unknown variables, fortunately he had the spiritual jade by his side. It could not only be a life-saving magic weapon at critical moments, but if he encountered danger, he could also hide in it to avoid disaster.
More importantly, the spiritual jade is full of spiritual energy suitable for cultivation. In this way, even if the road ahead is difficult, he firmly believes that he will be able to overcome the danger and successfully complete the mission entrusted to him by the emperor.
Thinking of this, he once again entered the Lingyu space with his consciousness, waiting for Wang Xinyao's return tomorrow while studying the method of cultivating the power of blood.
When Wang Xinyao and Xiao Xizi hurried back to the palace, night had already fallen, and the inky sky was dotted with stars.
At this time, Zhao Guoan had been waiting anxiously in the palace for a long time.
"Xu De, it's already so dark, why are they still nowhere to be found?" Zhao Guoan frowned, his tone becoming anxious. "Could they have encountered something unexpected on the way?"
"Your Majesty, don't worry. With Xiao Xizi by your side, I don't think there will be any big problems." Eunuch Xu hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to comfort him.
Eunuch Xu looked up at Zhao Guoan and saw that he was still worried. He said, "Your Majesty, Xiao Xizi is now at the fifth level of the Martial King. Even if he really encounters an extremely powerful opponent, even if it is difficult for him to compete, with his skills and speed, it is not a problem for him to escape with Miss Wang!"
After hearing what Eunuch Xu said, Zhao Guoan's anxious heart finally settled down a little.
But despite this, he still couldn't completely let go of his worry, but he could only continue to pace in the bedroom and wait.
At this moment, a eunuch's loud voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Eunuch Xiao Xizi and Eunuch Xiao Yaozi are back!"
"Let them in quickly!" Zhao Guoan was delighted and ordered loudly.
Wang Xinyao walked into the hall gracefully, while Xiao Xizi continued to wait diligently at the door.
"Your Majesty, I am here to pay my respects. I am a little late today. I hope Your Majesty can forgive my sins!" Wang Xinyao respectfully bowed deeply to Zhao Guoan and said sincerely.
Seeing this, Zhao Guoan waved his hands hastily and said with a smile: "Forget it, forget it, don't worry about these red tapes, just come and treat me!"
"Your Majesty, there is a reason why I am late!" Wang Xinyao said with a smile.
At the same time, she took out an exquisite little bottle from her pocket and presented it to everyone.
She bowed slightly, raised the bottle above her head, and respectfully handed it to Zhao Guoan, continuing to explain: "Your Majesty, this is the Qi-nourishing Pill I made today after finding some spiritual herbs outside!"
After saying that, Wang Xinyao gently opened the bottle cap, and immediately a faint fragrance wafted out, lingering throughout the palace.
With a smile on her face, she tilted the bottle mouth, and several round, smooth pills emitting a faint luster rolled out and fell steadily into the jade plate she had prepared in advance.
Then, holding the jade plate in both hands, she walked up to Zhao Guoan again and said softly, "Your Majesty, please look, this is the Qi-nourishing Pill. There are five pills in total. Your Majesty only needs to take one of them, and you will no longer have to endure the pain of acupuncture and will quickly recover as before!"
When Zhao Guoan heard this, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
You should know that acupuncture is not only extremely painful, but also time-consuming.
Now that he knew there was such a magical elixir that could replace acupuncture and help him recover quickly, he was naturally overjoyed.
So, he reached out and took the Qi-nourishing Pill from the jade plate without hesitation, and put it into his mouth and swallowed it without even looking at it.
Not long after, Zhao Guoan felt a warm and gentle power slowly spreading throughout his body.
This warm current was like a spring breeze, and wherever it passed, the originally weak meridians and qi and blood began to gradually recover.
Gradually, his vitality was replenished and restored bit by bit, and he felt like he had returned to his youthful state.
Wang Xinyao took out another small bottle of medicine from her arms.
She held it up with both hands and said to Zhao Guoan solemnly, "Your Majesty, this is also a pill that I carefully refined. It is called the Detoxification Pill. There are ten pills in total."
"Detoxification pill?" Zhao Guoan showed surprise. He really didn't expect that the seemingly young Wang Xinyao was so extraordinary. After only one day out, she successfully refined the Qi-nourishing Pill and the detoxification Pill.
"Yes, Your Majesty. If someone close to you is ever poisoned like the Empress Dowager, all they need to do is take this detoxifying pill and they'll be cured." Wang Xinyao nodded and said, "This pill is incredibly effective and can cure any poison in the world!"
Zhao Guoan's heart warmed, deeply moved, and he quickly praised, "Miss Wang, you are truly a thoughtful person! I will definitely reward you handsomely!"
As he said this, he took the detoxification pill with great joy.
Wang Xinyao continued, "Your Majesty, I have been away from home for over a month. During this time, I have been grateful for your care and trust. Now that Your Majesty has fully recovered, I plan to return home tomorrow morning."
After saying this, she bowed slightly to show her determination.
After listening to this, Zhao Guoan pondered for a moment and then nodded in agreement.
"Alright, I allow you to return. However, the journey is long and potentially dangerous. You should bring Xiao Xizi with you and have him protect you along the way." He continued, "Once we reach Nanhu County, you can hand Xiao Xizi over to the Crown Prince."
Wang Xinyao looked happy when she heard Zhao Guoan's permission.
"Yes!" She hurriedly bowed again and thanked him: "Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty. I will definitely remember this in my heart."
Zhao Guoan looked at Wang Xinyao with a smile, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Miss Wang, I promised you two conditions before, but there is still one that I haven't mentioned. I wonder what you want me to do for you?"
Wang Xinyao first expressed her gratitude with tears in her eyes, then hesitated for a moment.
Finally, she mustered the courage to speak, "Your Majesty, I would like to ask that you, on behalf of the Crown Prince, allow me to quietly visit the Empress in the Cold Palace. Is this possible?"
When the emperor heard this, his brows furrowed slightly.
After a short while, he slowly responded, "You may see the Queen, but please remember not to discuss the Crown Prince's specific matters with her. Just inform her that he is alive."
After hearing what the emperor said, Wang Xinyao did not dare to be negligent in the slightest and responded hurriedly and respectfully: "Yes, I will strictly follow the emperor's edict and will never dare to disobey in the slightest!" She lowered her head slightly to show her awe.
