Zi Yan fell silent for a moment, complex emotions churning in her violet eyes.
After a long while, she raised her head and looked at Liu Bai.
"Alright, I'll go with you."
Su Qian froze.
"Zi Yan..."
Zi Yan turned back to look at him, a smile appearing on her small face.
"Old Man Su, don't worry. This guy may look unreliable, but he probably isn't a bad person. Besides, I want to find my family. I want to know who I really am."
Su Qian opened his mouth, but in the end, he could only sigh.
Zi Yan looked at Liu Bai again, stretched out her little hand, and raised one finger.
"However, you have to cover my meals along the way!"
Liu Bai smiled, took out a pill from his Storage Ring, and handed it to her.
It was a pill the size of a longan, crimson throughout and radiating dense energy fluctuations. It was a Sixth-Grade Pill—the Fire Lotus Pill.
Zi Yan took the pill, brought it to her nose, and sniffed it. Her eyes immediately lit up.
"What dense energy!"
Without another word, she popped the pill into her mouth, chewed it a few times, and swallowed it.
A warm power rose from her abdomen, making her narrow her eyes in comfort.
Su Qian's eyelids twitched wildly.
A Sixth-Grade Pill, fed to Zi Yan just like that?
This Hall Master Liu Bai truly was... extravagant.
Liu Bai rose to his feet and cupped his hands toward Su Qian.
"Great Elder, thank you for allowing this. Should you need anything in the future, come find me in Holy Pill City of the Central Plains."
Su Qian nodded, then looked at Zi Yan again, his eyes full of affection.
"Girl, take good care of yourself."
Zi Yan nodded
