Chapter 3058: Chapter 3059: No One Is Above Tradition

"Isn’t it said that top-quality ink can last without fading?" Bai Ruozhu truly didn’t understand this area. She wasn’t an ancient person and had never researched these matters.

"Indeed, that’s true, but this isn’t ink; it’s some special herbal concoction. Preservation and anti-fading are one aspect, but there are other uses as well. Specifically, I can’t determine," Jiang Yichun said.

Bai Ruozhu blinked at him, "What are you afraid of with me around? I’ll study it and find out."

She hadn’t thought about specifically researching the ink marks above, but Jiang Yichun’s reminder suggested it might be a discovery.

She was someone who acted quickly once deciding, and to avoid damaging the integrity of the sheepskin scroll, she carefully wiped a little off with a fine silk handkerchief. Then she placed the silk handkerchief into a specially prepared medicine liquid.

However, this pondering made her heart race wildly.

This ink could be considered a kind of poison. Although it wasn’t recorded in her copy of the "Poison Classic," it had similarities with several poisons mentioned in the "Poison Classic."

In her previous life in the modern world, she had obtained a part of the "Poison Classic." After unexpectedly transmigrating here, she discovered other parts. It seemed like destiny had something in store for her, or perhaps something was binding her. 𝙛𝓇ⅇ

"How is it?" Jiang Yichun noticed her unusual behavior and walked up, somewhat worried, to ask.

"It seems related to the ’Poison Classic.’ This medicine liquid doesn’t have specific toxicity; it seems like it needs to encounter something else to undergo a change." Her eyes lit up as she excitedly said, "Yes, perhaps this sheepskin scroll contains more than just these contents; it requires being combined with something else to reveal its biggest secret."

Jiang Yichun pondered for a moment, "What could it be?"

Bai Ruozhu shook her head regretfully, "I don’t know."

"The treasure in the Emperor’s hands is passed down by each generation of emperors. During the Former Emperor’s time, Ning Ran was the one who helped him with this matter. It’s quite possible Ning Ran knows more than we do," Jiang Yichun said.

"Could it be related to Xiaoxiao? Is that why he returned to the Zhong Family?" Bai Ruozhu exclaimed, "What exactly have the emperors searched for over generations?"

Jiang Yichun sneered, "What emperors seek is either wealth and power to rule the world or the path to immortality."

"Isn’t that too far-fetched? Are they looking for an immortality elixir?" Bai Ruozhu found it amusing, "Do they think they are Qin Shihuang?"

"Which emperor doesn’t want to live eternally?" Jiang Yichun retorted.

Bai Ruozhu fell quiet. Although it seemed commonplace, everyone cannot escape the ordinary desires, especially not emperors.

Could it be the rumor that eating Taisui flesh ensures a long life, which is why Ning Ran is so fixated on Xiaoxiao?

But didn’t he already cut away a large piece of Taisui flesh? It was so big that Ao Song was nearly counterattacked and lost his life.

"It’s Xiaoxiao’s heart!" Bai Ruozhu suddenly exclaimed, "While it’s said that Taisui flesh is the elixir of longevity, the Zhong Family knows it’s not like that. But what if it’s the heart of Taisui?"

"Why do I feel like he’s not eager for immortality, unless he came back to life with some flaw that he has to find a way to remedy," Jiang Yichun said.

While they were talking, Bai Ruozhu heard a faint sound. It was Xiaoxiao!

"Xiaoxiao is here; let’s go out." She said happily, pulling Jiang Yichun out of the Space.

"Sister, where are you?" Xiaoxiao’s voice sounded a bit weak, like a sick child, making one feel distressed hearing it.

Bai Ruozhu appeared in the cave and hurriedly said, "I’m here; are you okay?"
