C109 A Favor Owed

After Li Qiuxia heard Lau Yiheng's words, her eyes lit up, and then she said, "But Young Master Lau absolutely cannot tell this to anyone."

Lau Yiheng nodded solemnly and said, "Since the City Lord's Mansion is on good terms with our Lau family, I will naturally think about the City Lord's Mansion's interests. How could I possibly tell such an important thing?"

"Alright, let me tell you. If you want to cure my grandfather, you must have a powerful Core Cultivator, which is also a pill refiner. If the other party can refine a Hundred Solution Pill, my grandfather's poison injuries will naturally be healed. The other way is to find the purifying fruit. After the Hundred Solution Pill is out, only this thing can cure my grandfather's poison. I heard that this thing grows in the Barren Mountains, but my father has searched for it many times, but he couldn't find it."

When Lau Yitao heard this, he said indifferently, "Oh, I see. That's good. I will also go to the Barren Mountains to train after the new year. If I can see it, I will definitely get it back and give it to you."

"Really? You want to go to the Barren Mountains?"

"Why? Can't I go?"

Li Qiuxia shook her head and said, "The Barren Mountains is a very dangerous place. I heard that there are level four Demonic Beasts and even stronger Demonic Beasts inside. Can your family let you go?"

Lau Yiheng said indifferently, "This is my own business. Besides, if I had been growing up under the protection of others, how could I have developed? Since I have chosen the path of martial cultivator, then I have to be mentally prepared to face danger and even death. Because this path itself is filled with thorns. Only those who cut through the thorns can become true experts."

"Young Master Lau's knowledge is indeed extraordinary. You can't blame yourself for being able to endure for so many years. Alright, I'll tell you the appearance of the purifying fruit now." Then she carefully described the appearance of the purifying fruit.

After Lau Yiheng remembered it, Li Qiuxia smiled and said, "Young Master Lau, you really don't have any interest in me at all." Her words carried a very provocative meaning, and such words were the easiest to move a man's heart.

However, Lau Yiheng's state of mind was too stable, and it was not something that could be stirred by such a trick. Thus, Lau Yiheng smiled and continued, "You are in danger doing this. In a place without anyone, it is very dangerous to say such words to a man stronger than you."

"But why don't I feel any danger at all?"

Lau Yiheng: "That's because you don't have a strong sense of danger. Furthermore, it might be too late when you sense it." After saying this, Lau Yiheng turned around and left. After taking two steps, he continued, "Lady Autumn, you can go back first. If I find the purifying fruit, I will definitely give it to you. You don't have to sacrifice anything, because you have the right to find someone you like more."

When Li Qiuxia saw Lau Yiheng's reluctant back, she sighed helplessly and said, "It seems that I overestimated my charm in the past. Perhaps only those ordinary people would care about my appearance and status. When they meet a real expert, they might not care about it that much." After saying that, he left the Lau family.

At this moment, Lau Yiheng felt that something was amiss. He immediately went to find Lau Changyun because Lau Yiheng found that Lau Changyun would tell him some things, but Lau Changxiong would not.

Lau Yiheng and Lau Changyun went to the study room together. Then, the two of them sat opposite each other. Lau Yiheng asked first, "Fourth Uncle, is City Lord's father seriously injured?"

"Yes, this should be something that the little girl, Li Qiuxia, told you, right?"

Lau Yiheng nodded and said, "Yes."

"Actually, his injuries are not very serious. With his strength, he can completely recover in a few months. However, the poison is very serious, causing his strength to be unable to advance further. Moreover, he has to bear the pain of the poison. I think that he is about to die."

Lau Yiheng said, "Oh, then he should be injured for the sake of the Lau family, right?"

Lau Changyun frowned and said, "Why do you ask? Did Li Qiuxia tell you this as well?"

Lau Yiheng smiled and said, "No, but since she complained to me, it means that this matter is related to the Lau family. Moreover, the Lau family is on good terms with the City Lord's Mansion, so there must be another reason."

Lau Changyun nodded and said, "That's right. The relationship between the old City Lord and our old patriarch is very good, which is also my grandfather. The old patriarch was besieged by people when he was fighting for treasures during a trial. Fortunately, the old City Lord saved him, but the old patriarch was injured because of it. Not many people know about this, and it was mentioned by my father back then. Therefore, it can be said that the Lau family owes the City Lord's Mansion a great favor, and we must repay it."

Lau Yiheng said, "So that's how it is. It makes sense. I know about this. The people from the City Lord's Mansion seem to be not bad. Although they are also good at scheming, they won't do too much. I will think of a way."

Lau Changyun smiled and said, "What kind of method do you want? For so many years, we and the City Lord's Mansion have been working hard, but the old patriarch's poison still has no effect. Yiheng, don't be reckless."

Lau Yiheng nodded and said, "Fourth Uncle, don't worry. I won't do anything rash. Right, there are still four months left until the time of the four great families' large ratio competition, right?"
