C90 Chu Xiu's Invitation

"Father..."

Situ Xiu looked at the old Situ Ming in front of her and walked to his side. She held his hand and said, "I know you were threatened by Ge Qianqiu. I don't blame you."

"No, if I wasn't useless, you wouldn't have been separated from your child. You have suffered in cold prison for so many years and even fell ill..."

Situ Ming furrowed his brows, and his face was full of self-blame. "All these years, I have been blaming myself every single day and night. I have been cultivating with all my might, but my talent is still limited. I am still no match for Ge Qianqiu. If I could break through to the Body Fusion level 2 as soon as possible, you wouldn't have suffered so much."

"It's not your fault."

Situ Xiu shook her head and said.

When she was captured by Situ Ming and brought back to Taiwu Mountain, she had hated him, but later she found out that it was Ge Qianqiu who said that if he did not marry her to Ge Shaocong, not only would he seize the position of Sect Leader in Taiwu Mountain, he would also chase after her.

Situ Ming had no choice but to forcefully bring her back. He wanted her to marry Ge Shaocong, but he didn't expect her to be so stubborn and almost angered Ge Qianqiu.

Because of this, Situ Ming paid a huge price and mediated with Ge Qianqiu. It wasn't easy for them to get what they wanted.

It could be said that if it wasn't for Situ Ming, she would have died twenty years ago.

Although Situ Ming didn't protect her well, he had done his best.

When Situ Ming heard Situ Xiu's words, he revealed a bitter smile and said, "Xiu, you don't blame me. I'm already very glad that you didn't blame me. It's just that I still can't forgive myself."

"Father..."

Situ Xiu wanted to say something but was interrupted by Situ Ming. He said, "Since you have come out of cold prison, you should quickly return to Jiangxia City and reunite with Lin Yunzhi."

"Alright."

Seeing Situ Ming's insistence, Situ Xiu did not say anything. She only said, "Take care." Then she left Taiwu Mountain.

Everyone brought Situ Xiu back to Jiangcuo County first. They planned to bring her to the Jiangcuo County for a stroll before returning to Jiangxia City.

Just as Lin Xiao was bringing Situ Xiu to buy jewelry, a guard from the County Governor Mansion walked to Lin Xiao's side and said respectfully, "City Lord Lin, my young master invites you to the County Governor Mansion for a chat!"

young master?

To be able to make a guard from County Governor Mansion call young master, it must be Chu Xiu.

But at this time, Chu Xiu suddenly asked him to go to County Governor Mansion. What was going on?

"Xiao..."

Situ Xiu who was standing at the side saw this and pulled Lin Xiao's arm worriedly, afraid that Chu Xiu would harm Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao patted the back of Situ Xiu's hand and said with a smile, "Mother, you don't have to worry. Chu Xiu and I are old acquaintances. He will not harm me."

"That's good."

Situ Xiu heard this and could not help but sigh in relief.

Regarding Lin Xiao's experience in Ancient Secret Realm, she had also heard some of it from Lin Xiao. She knew that Lin Xiao and Chu Xiu had indeed met before, but wasn't his good brother Chen Ou? Why was he so familiar with Chu Xiu?

However, since Lin Xiao had already said so, she didn't want to stop him anymore.

Lin Xiao asked Barbarian King, Sword Saint, and Hound Xiao Tian to escort Situ Xiu back to the restaurant, while he himself brought Dragon King of the East Sea to County Governor Mansion.

When they reached County Governor Mansion, Lin Xiao heard the sound of the zither.

The sound of the zither was intermittent, and it carried endless sorrow. Lin Xiao couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

He followed the sound of the zither and walked to a quiet courtyard. He saw Chu Xiu sitting alone in the pavilion in the courtyard, playing the zither in a somewhat lonely manner.

When he saw Lin Xiao, He pressed the strings of the zither and raised his eyes to look at Lin Xiao. "You're here."

"Yes, sir."

Lin Xiao nodded. Although he and Chu Xiu were not brothers, they were still brothers. The battle in Ancient Secret Realm had made him admire Chu Xiu very much. He even had a feeling of appreciation for him.

Therefore, he was also very straightforward. He asked directly, "Why did you call me here?"

"I hope you can save my father."

Chu Xiu slowly stood up. He raised his fist and smashed it on the pillar of the pavilion. He said, "You should have heard about it. Half a year ago, my father went into seclusion and didn't show up. In fact, he wasn't in seclusion. He was poisoned. "

"Poisoned?"

Lin Xiao raised his eyebrows in surprise.

One should know that Chu Xiu's father was Prefectural Governor of Jiangcuo County. He was the strongest existence in Jiangcuo County. Who could poison him?

Furthermore, if even the people of County Governor Mansion couldn't get the antidote, what was the point of finding him?

Noticing Lin Xiao's doubt, Chu Xiu continued, "Half a year ago, my father went to the Imperial City to attend Third Prince's wedding banquet. Unexpectedly, he was poisoned by Prefectural Governor from the Guang'an County next door. During this half a year, we have been searching for the antidote, but we couldn't find it at all!"

"Then why are you looking for me?"

When Lin Xiao heard this, he could not help but shrug his shoulders. He curled his lips and said, "Don't tell me you want me to snatch the antidote from Prefectural Governor in Guang'an County for you?"

Although he had Dragon King of the East Sea by his side now, if he attacked a Prefectural Governor, it would be too much of a waste of his life.

Furthermore, if this Prefectural Governor of Guang'an County was so easy to deal with, Chu Xiu would have gotten the antidote long ago. Why would he come and find him?

Upon hearing Lin Xiao's words, Chu Xiu hurriedly explained, "Guang'an County is very powerful. Even we can't deal with him. Naturally, I won't make things difficult for you. I asked you to come here because I know you are a Spirit level Apothecary. I hope you can help me concoct the detoxification pill. "

"As far as I know, I'm not the only Spirit level Apothecary in the Jiangcuo County."

Lin Xiao spread his hands and said.

Although Spirit level Apothecary was very rare, The Jiangcuo County was still a county, and there were still a few Spirit level Apothecary. Why did Chu Xiu only look for him?

He didn't think that their relationship was this good!

"Indeed."

Chu Xiu nodded, his expression somewhat desolate. He continued, "But if Spirit level pills can cure the poison, I will not come looking for you."

"You mean..."

Chu Xiu saw through Lin Xiao's guess. He nodded and said with certainty, "That's right. If you want to cure the poison, you need a Earth level detoxification pill."

Earth level pills!

One should know that Earth level Apothecary was a rare existence even in Beiwu Empire, let alone Jiangcuo County. Why did Chu Xiu think that he could break through?

In fact, if he could get help from a Earth level Apothecary, Chu Xiu wouldn't come and find Lin Xiao.

However, the hateful Prefectural Governor of Guang'an County not only poisoned his father, but also framed his father at Third Prince's wedding banquet, causing his father's relationship in Imperial City to be broken.

After all, no one was willing to offend Third Prince.1

With this, with Chu Xiu's status, it would be as difficult as ascending to the heavens to find a Earth level Apothecary to help him.

With no other choice, Chu Xiu could only look for Lin Xiao. "Lin Xiao, I know that it will be difficult for you to break through to the Earth level Apothecary in a short period of time, but I have no other way now. I hope you can help me! " Of course, I will also provide you with all the help you need! "
