Chapter 72

At ten o'clock, Qin Muyu, who had everything prepared, left her room.

At this moment, her face was calm, as if she had no fear of having only half an hour left to live.

Qin Muyu's state of mind was one that very few could match.

"Miss!" Fan Ming had been guarding outside Qin Muyu's door.

"What is it?" Qin Muyu asked indifferently.

"This is something the family sent." Fan Ming handed her a box.

Qin Muyu frowned.

"Miss, please forgive me for speaking out of turn. As a father and mother, can they really just stand by and do nothing? If that were true, it would be the cruelest thing for them. These things can at least increase the chances of success. Miss, you can't joke with your own life!" Fan Ming said softly.

"Give it to me. Are they nearby?" Qin Muyu took the box.

Fan Ming remained silent. Qin Pengyi had told him not to reveal their arrival to Qin Muyu.

Qin Muyu's mind was as sharp as a demon's; if she could guess, then let her guess. It wasn't as if Fan Ming had said anything.

"Tell them not to come and not to let anyone disturb me." Qin Muyu didn't press further, as if she was certain of the fact.

Fan Ming remained silent, but after Qin Muyu left, he immediately relayed the message to Qin Pengyi.

Qin Jintian was already there.

With only half an hour left, how could Qin Jintian sit still? Although, strictly speaking, there wasn't much difference between being in the hotel and outside the villa, being a bit closer seemed to make things better. Even if it was just a psychological comfort, it was still good.

"This girl!" Qin Jintian said with a bitter smile. "If she doesn't succumb to fate, our Qin family is destined for glory! Glory because of a woman!"

Qin Pengyi and Mi Gaolan were secretly surprised.

They naturally knew how much Grandfather Qin Jintian valued Qin Muyu. This was no secret in the entire Qin family.

But they never imagined that Qin Jintian valued Qin Muyu so much that he believed she could bring glory to the Qin family! It was truly inconceivable!

Because, in Qin Jintian and even Qin Pengyi's minds, there were still some ancient traditions being upheld. One of them was the preference for boys over girls!

Given this, Qin Jintian's high regard for Qin Muyu was evident.

"Pengyi, you personally arrange it. During the treatment, not even a fly should be able to get in!" Qin Jintian said solemnly.

"Grandfather, it's already arranged!" Qin Pengyi said softly.

"Check it again!" Qin Jintian said sternly.

"Yes!" Qin Pengyi smiled bitterly but quickly went with Mi Gaolan to check.

"Yuer, your great-grandfather is waiting for you here! You must be safe!" Qin Jintian looked in the direction of the villa and muttered to himself.

---

"What is this?" Qin Muyu entered the underground chamber and was surprised by its setup.

The chamber was arranged in the shape of a Bagua pattern, and the pattern was formed by yellowed talismans stuck to the ground.

"You can't possibly not recognize talismans, right?" Gu Fan smiled at Qin Muyu.

"Of course I recognize them! It's just that fewer and fewer people can draw talismans these days. I've studied them, but I can't master them!" Qin Muyu smiled lightly.

"Can't master them?" Gu Fan was surprised. "Talismans aren't that difficult!"

Qin Muyu gave Gu Fan a look.

Not that difficult? How could Gu Fan's words not make her angry? Everyone in the circle would probably react the same way to this statement.

"What do I need to do?" Qin Muyu asked.

"Very simple, just sit cross-legged in the center." Gu Fan said seriously.

This was an auxiliary treatment formation recorded in the Immortal Doctor Sect!

However, Gu Fan was missing some materials, so it was only勉强 set up.

But even so, Gu Fan believed it could play a significant role.

"What about my clothes?" Qin Muyu smiled. As for Cheng Shumeng, who seemed to be meditating on the side, Qin Muyu didn't feel the need to be reserved.

First, she had already been seen by Cheng Shumeng before. Second, Qin Muyu and Cheng Shumeng had bathed together... She didn't know if this was arranged by Gu Fan to prevent any accidents during the treatment. But regardless, after all this, Qin Muyu no longer had any strange thoughts about being naked in front of Cheng Shumeng.

"Of course, you need to take them off!" Gu Fan's face showed a hint of shyness.

"You look very deceptive!" Qin Muyu thought of how Gu Fan had almost turned into a beast earlier and compared it to his current shyness. The contrast was quite significant.

"Stop talking nonsense..." Gu Fan was really impressed by Qin Muyu. At this moment, shouldn't her attention be more focused? How could she still have time to think about these things? Was she really not afraid at all?

Qin Muyu smiled and very naturally took off her clothes.

Gu Fan lowered his head to avoid the scene, afraid that he might lose control if he saw it.

Losing control at this moment would be disastrous.

Qin Muyu saw Gu Fan lower his head and smiled. It seemed that this side of Gu Fan made her feel very good.

"These things can increase my strength against the innate Yin Sha energy!" Qin Muyu, now naked, opened the box Fan Ming had given her. Inside were some herbs!

Seeing the herbs, Gu Fan's eyes lit up!

How could the successor of the Immortal Doctor Sect not be familiar with herbs? But the herbs available to the Immortal Doctor Sect were now extremely scarce! Qin Muyu, however, had several kinds.

The foundation of the Qin family was indeed a bit terrifying.

"Indeed, they can increase the chances of success! Unfortunately!" Gu Fan shook his head slightly.

"Since they can increase the chances of success, why are you shaking your head?" Qin Muyu was puzzled.

"Are you planning to swallow them directly?" Gu Fan asked.

"Um, yes!"

"The effectiveness will be wasted by at least several dozen times! If I had time and some other materials, I could refine them into pills..." Gu Fan shook his head. There was no time now.

Qin Muyu said helplessly, "Not everyone can refine pills..."

"Alright, just put them here. I'll help you take them when the time is right! Taking them now won't achieve the best effect!" Gu Fan said.

"Okay!" Qin Muyu nodded. On this point, she had to listen to Gu Fan.

However, Qin Muyu's preparations were not over!

She then produced a small, very old talisman!

Seeing the talisman, Gu Fan's eyes moved, and his face showed a hint of nostalgia!

"This was left to me by my master. This is the last one. Many times before, I was on the brink of death. It was this talisman that helped me resist the innate Yin Sha energy, allowing me to escape each time!" Qin Muyu said softly.

"Um, this talisman has such an effect!" Gu Fan nodded. He had inherited all his master's teachings; how could he not recognize this talisman?

He could draw such talismans, but they wouldn't be as effective as the one in Qin Muyu's hand.

After all, the gap between Gu Fan and his master was still quite large.

"All my preparations are here!" Qin Muyu said with a smile.

"How long did the innate Yin Sha energy last before?" Gu Fan took out a silver needle, and Cheng Shumeng opened her eyes.

Time was getting closer.

"Each time it lasted longer. The last time, it was five hours!" Fear flashed across Qin Muyu's face, as if the events of those five hours were too terrifying to recall.

Cheng Shumeng looked shocked. Although Gu Fan's face was calm, he also frowned slightly.

"You need to be prepared for the time to double or even more!" Gu Fan said solemnly.

Qin Muyu nodded solemnly.

"Shumeng, you also need to be prepared and follow my orders!" Gu Fan instructed Cheng Shumeng.

"Okay!" Cheng Shumeng nodded.

"Sister Shumeng, thank you!" Qin Muyu said gratefully.

"Don't say that. You need to hold on. No matter how much pain you feel, you must hold on. We are all here for you!" Cheng Shumeng encouraged her.

Qin Muyu smiled sweetly and nodded firmly.

Gu Fan began the acupuncture, and the Immortal Doctor's second major formation was fully prepared!

Not only that, but Gu Fan also had many other preparations.

"Is this a pill?" Qin Muyu and Cheng Shumeng were shocked when they saw what Gu Fan took out.

"Yes, this is a pill to quickly restore spiritual energy. It's one of the few remaining in the Immortal Doctor Sect's inventory!" Gu Fan had the skill to refine pills, but unfortunately, the herbs stored by the Immortal Doctor Sect had been used up over generations. It was already difficult to supply some herbs for Gu Fan to learn pill refinement.

In this society, finding herbs suitable for pill refinement was extremely difficult.

"So, you need to have confidence and not worry about the consumption of spiritual energy. As long as we can survive this outbreak, we will have another year. A year is enough for me and Shumeng to help you absorb all the innate Yin Sha energy!" Gu Fan said with a smile.

"This is too precious!" Qin Muyu said solemnly. These pills were invaluable treasures that could save lives in critical moments.

"Whether it's precious or not, don't think about it now. Alright, wait calmly. There are less than ten minutes left!" Gu Fan looked at the time, his face serious.

Qin Muyu nodded with a complex expression and sat down to wait for the innate Yin Sha energy to erupt.

Cheng Shumeng was also taking the time to familiarize herself with her abilities. Now, with two abilities, she had an unprecedented experience, and she couldn't afford to relax, as she was always ready to absorb the innate Yin Sha energy.

Gu Fan was also quietly adjusting his state, keeping his spiritual energy at its fullest.

Everything was ready, and time was ticking away...
