Hu Xiaobei had no sense of underestimation at this moment because she had gained insight into part of what her situation was.

When Hu Xiaobei approached directly, a flicker of strangeness crossed her eyes, but soon, her gaze became as calm as water once again...

The reason for such composure was that she had anticipated this situation a long time ago, so everything was under control.

...

"Go!"

As they got closer, she spoke in a hoarse voice while watching the calmly composed Hu Xiaobei.

Following her hoarse command, over a dozen deep green vines rapidly emerged.

Like they had eyes, the vines swiftly surrounded Hu Xiaobei after appearing.

Hu Xiaobei watched them approach quickly without any panic.

She glanced at her, brought her hands together, and quickly snapped her fingers.

With the crisp sound spreading, wisps of pale purple vines also began to spread from Hu Xiaobei as the center, and after spreading, they quickly moved forward.

In an instant, they directly collided.

Like car crashes, the terrifying sounds rapidly spread.

...

"You really do have wood series true qi in your body!"

Watching the vines touch each other, the woman looked at Hu Xiaobei and spoke softly.

Before, she had sensed a familiar aura from Hu Xiaobei, and now she was completely certain that there was indeed a familiar aura.

Moreover, this familiar aura came from wood series true qi.

Hu Xiaobei smirked slightly, "Yes! The purest wood series true qi, are you still planning to continue?"

As she asked, Hu Xiaobei channeled the Nine Wood True Qi in her dantian to appear in her palms, slowly flowing...

Looking at them, the woman spoke solemnly.

"I don’t know why such a pure wood series true qi chose you, but I dislike you, so I plan to reclaim them all for my use!"

Hu Xiaobei retrieved the Nine Wood True Qi and spoke indifferently, "You probably don’t dislike me; you dislike those people who harmed your friends, right."

Hu Xiaobei noticed her particular aversion to herself and made this judgment...

"You... how did you know?"

She looked at Hu Xiaobei, astonished.

Hu Xiaobei wasn’t entirely sure before.

But now, Hu Xiaobei was certain that she had guessed correctly.

"I have insight too, so I can see everything clearly!"

As Hu Xiaobei spoke, she snapped her fingers again, this time causing the vines under her control to rapidly disappear.

Seeing this, she gave Hu Xiaobei a deep look and issued a command.

The vines she controlled also quickly retreated...

However, she didn’t let them completely dissipate; instead, she let them swirl around herself.

Clearly, she still harbored some mistrust towards Hu Xiaobei.

Seeing this, Hu Xiaobei didn’t get angry.

Because Hu Xiaobei knew that trust wasn’t something that could be built swiftly.

For her to stop fighting now was a huge change already.

"Now, tell me how you figured it out!"

With a gentle smile, Hu Xiaobei spoke, "Let me first talk about your identity! You must be a Yao Ling from some type of herb in this Medicinal Garden!"

"You’re amazing to have guessed that!"

Upon having her identity revealed by Hu Xiaobei, a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes.

Over many years, Hu Xiaobei was the first to discover her identity, which truly astonished her repeatedly.

"Indeed!"

Hearing her confession, Hu Xiaobei gave her a deep look.

To be honest, Hu Xiaobei wasn’t particularly sure of this earlier.

But now, Hu Xiaobei was completely convinced.

About Yao Ling, Hu Xiaobei had only read a little introduction before.

Hu Xiaobei had always thought it impossible to encounter, as it was extremely difficult to form.

Now, seeing it, Hu Xiaobei was truly astonished.

After the shock, Hu Xiaobei looked at her and continued, "You should have a friend whose health is very poor due to some reason now. So, to save her, you have been offering your spiritual energy daily. This made Yang Zuo recover somewhat but hurt you severely. So I advise you to stop, or soon you’ll be completely exhausted."

Spiritual Medicine is alive because of Spiritual Energy.

So if Spiritual Energy is truly depleted, it can only become the most ordinary existence.

"Even if I’m exhausted, I’m willing! Let’s not talk about this now. How did you figure this out? We shouldn’t have met before."

Toward the end, she stared at Hu Xiaobei with curiosity.

What amazed her most was Hu Xiaobei completely saw through everything.

In her view, it was impossible since this was their first encounter.

"Every action leaves traces. You always interact with your unhealthy friend, naturally leaving an aura; I inferred from this point."

"Are you a doctor?"

Giving her a glance full of expectation, Hu Xiaobei lightly nodded, "Yes!"

Receiving the affirmative answer, she looked at Hu Xiaobei with some anxiety, "Can you help my friend? I’m begging you."

"Don’t worry, I will."

Hu Xiaobei spoke with a gentle smile.

"Thank you, thank you!"

She breathed a long sigh of relief.

She previously worried Hu Xiaobei might refuse her, considering her previous excessive actions.

Seeing her relax, Hu Xiaobei guessed her previous nervousness.

Indeed, her worries were unnecessary.

Because Hu Xiaobei was genuinely not the type to harbor grudges.

"By the way, can you release my two incompetent pets now?"

"Of course, certainly!"

Agreeing, she quickly released them without hesitation.

...

"Master, you finally came! Earlier, I truly suffered a lot; I’ve never suffered so much in this life. You must avenge me!"

Hearing this grievance, Hu Xiaobei turned to look at the Treasure-hunting Rabbit on her shoulder.

At this moment, it looked at Hu Xiaobei with a miserable expression.

Its eyes held a hint of moisture.

"You’re really good at acting!"

With such words, Hu Xiaobei rolled her eyes at it, pulled its ears, brought it to her face, and spoke angrily, "What did I tell you before? I said once you found the Medicinal Garden, notify me first. What did you do?"

Feeling somewhat guilty, the Treasure-hunting Rabbit gave Hu Xiaobei a glance and spoke vaguely, "I... I forgot before, but Master, now’s not the time to settle scores. I really suffered earlier."

Listening to its shameless words, Hu Xiaobei laughed in exasperation...

Deeply looking at it, Hu Xiaobei asked with curiosity, "Tell me, how did you suffer? How do I feel you seem no different than before?"
