“Wife.”

Qiao Suluo looked at Yue Hanzheng and nodded.

Yue Hanzheng wanted to ask something, but afraid of saying the wrong thing, he remained silent. Qiao Suluo didn’t speak either. She just sat there quietly, watching the rain outside with her brows tightly furrowed.

A moment later, Dongqing led Gu Songlan into the living room.

“Miss Qiao, has something happened?”

Only then did Qiao Suluo speak. “Young Master Gu, I feel this rain is quite unusual. There might be flash floods, so it’s best to prepare early.”

Gu Songlan had helped her a lot, and she felt she had to come and notify him; otherwise, she would feel uneasy. As for whether he believed her or not, that was out of her control.

Gu Songlan’s expression shifted slightly. He cupped his hands and said, “Thank you for letting me know, Miss Qiao.

“I also sense something is wrong with this rain. It might continue for many days.

“I don’t know what your plans are, but I intend to go back and inform my father to relocate the Medicine King Valley to the north. To tell you the truth, we also have a branch valley in Beizhou.

“You could move with us, Miss Qiao.”

Qiao Suluo shook her head. “There’s no need. We also plan to move to Beizhou. If fate permits, we’ll meet again there.”

Hearing this, Gu Songlan felt a bit disappointed, but he didn’t say much. As the Young Valley Master of the Medicine King Valley, he couldn’t just abandon his people to move alongside Qiao Suluo. Moreover, he had no right to stay by her side. At this moment, he actually envied Chu Moyuan, who could accompany her at all times.

Still, he was deeply grateful that Qiao Suluo had made a special trip just to tell him this. He wondered if it meant he was special in her heart. There were things Gu Songlan wanted to say, but he feared pushing her away, so he didn’t dare to speak rashly.

He untied a bag from his waist and handed it to her. “Miss Qiao, this is a Spatial Bag. It contains many medicines I formulated. The usage and purposes are written on the bottles. You might need them on the road.”

“A Spatial Bag?”

This seemingly ordinary leather pouch was actually a Spatial Bag. Even Bai Qianluo’s expression flickered.

The system spoke excitedly in Qiao Suluo’s ear, “Host, this is a Magic Artifact! A thousand years ago, the Beast World Continent still had such Magic Artifacts, but they’ve long been lost. To think Gu Songlan actually has a Spatial Bag in his possession! It shows just how deep the Gu family’s foundation really is.

“A Spatial Bag is absolutely something that all factions would fight over if brought out, yet he gave it to you so directly.

“It’s obvious he treats you really well.”

Qiao Suluo knew that although she had awakened the Divine Doctor ability, she lacked rare medicinal herbs and processing tools. Furthermore, her herb processing skills weren’t mature enough. Gu Songlan, on the other hand, had been doing this since he was a child and had the time to frequently venture into deep mountains to gather herbs. Not to mention, the Medicine King Valley cultivated all sorts of rare and exotic medicinal plants. Therefore, the medicines he formulated were truly useful and highly effective.

She opened the bag and found that the medicines inside were exactly what they might need on their journey.

“These are too precious, I…”

Gu Songlan interrupted, “Please don’t decline, Miss Qiao. After eating the food you’ve cooked recently, my health has improved significantly. I only hope I’ll have the chance to eat your cooking again in the future.”

He was telling the truth. He used to suffer from anorexia and had no appetite, making his body quite weak and prone to dizziness. But after eating Qiao Suluo’s delicious meals every day recently, his appetite had returned, and his symptoms of dizziness and weakness had vanished.

What they didn’t know was that Qiao Suluo added Spiritual Spring Water to the meals and porridge she cooked every day. The Spiritual Energy in the Spiritual Spring Water was rich and dense, capable of nourishing and strengthening the body.

After a moment of thought, Qiao Suluo accepted it. “Thank you, Young Master Gu. Once we arrive in Beizhou, you must come over as a guest if there’s a chance.”

Watching Qiao Suluo and Gu Songlan talk, a hint of gloom flashed through Yue Hanzheng’s eyes. Now, her relationship with Gu Songlan was even closer than with him. He wanted to say something but didn’t know what to say.

The system said, “Host, Gu Songlan treats you really well. During this flash flood, the Medicine King Valley is relocating to Beizhou, and they might encounter danger on the way. Why don’t you awaken a superpower for him? That way, he’ll have another means to protect himself.

“You can completely trust Gu Songlan.”

Having just accepted all these things from Gu Songlan, Qiao Suluo actually felt a bit guilty and wanted to do something to repay him. Helping him awaken a superpower was indeed a good idea. However, Dongqing was here, as well as Yue Hanzheng.

As if knowing what she was thinking, the system said, “Dongqing’s physique isn’t suitable, so he can’t awaken a superpower. I’ll make him fall asleep. You just need to help Yue Hanzheng and Young Master Gu awaken theirs.”

Before Qiao Suluo could react, Dongqing yawned, unable to keep his eyes open.

“Young Master, I’m too tired. I’m going to go catch up on some sleep first.”

Drowsily, Dongqing headed back to his room to sleep. Although he was Gu Songlan’s servant, Gu Songlan was quite lenient with him, so the boy acted rather casually around his master.

Now, only Qiao Suluo, Bai Qianluo, Gu Songlan, and Yue Hanzheng were left in the room.

Qiao Suluo looked at Gu Songlan and Yue Hanzheng, hesitating to speak. Since the system had already done its part, she had no choice but to bite the bullet.

Gu Songlan looked at her. “Miss Qiao, no matter what it is, please feel free to speak your mind.”

Qiao Suluo said, “Young Master Gu, since things have come to this, I was thinking that if you and Yue Hanzheng could awaken superpowers, you might have an extra means of self-preservation.”

“Superpowers?”

Her words left both Gu Songlan and Yue Hanzheng stunned. Neither of them was an ordinary Beastman. They both had strong family backgrounds with deep foundations. Having read countless books since childhood, they naturally knew what superpowers were. That was an ability that only Beastmen from a thousand years ago could awaken. In this day and age, there were no longer any Beastmen capable of awakening superpowers.

Gu Songlan and Yue Hanzheng stared at Qiao Suluo with shock in their eyes. They even suspected they had misheard her.

Bai Qianluo channeled the superpower in his body, projecting a swirling vortex of water from his fingertip. “This is the superpower my wife helped me awaken. A Water Ability.”

Seeing this, Gu Songlan and Yue Hanzheng confirmed that she was telling the truth.

Qiao Suluo said, “If you want to awaken superpowers, I will help you awaken them right now.

“If you don’t want to, then pretend I never said anything. I just hope you can keep this a secret for me.”

Yue Hanzheng immediately said, “I believe you.

“I want to awaken a superpower. I’ll have to trouble my wife.”

“Alright.”

Recovering from his shock, Gu Songlan added, “I also believe you, Miss Qiao. Rest assured, I will remain tight-lipped about this matter.”

He naturally knew how immense this matter was and would absolutely not breathe a word of it.

Next, Qiao Suluo proceeded to awaken superpowers for Yue Hanzheng and Gu Songlan. She waited for them to wake up.

Over two hours later, Gu Songlan woke up first.

Qiao Suluo looked at him expectantly. “Young Master Gu, did you awaken a superpower?

“Does your body feel uncomfortable anywhere?”
