Xi Mengdie's eyes flashed with contempt and disdain. "Only a piece of trash like her would need something like this. She's nothing but a useless dog raised by the Xi family … It's about time we threw her away."
"Your father is seriously injured and bedridden. That wretched girl is under the protection of the master in Qingfeng Courtyard. How are we going to deliver this pill?" Second Madam Xi furrowed her brows. Her brows, which were not well drawn to begin with, were now in an odd position.
Xi Mengdie picked up the bottle. Her eyes flashed viciously as the corners of her lips curled into a despicable smile. "If we can't deliver it, we can get someone else to deliver it. I'm sure that person will be very happy to deliver it."
Second Madam Xi abruptly raised her head. She suddenly remembered who that person was …
For the past two days, Xi Nuoying had been practicing her punches and kicks in the courtyard from time to time, as if she had reached a bottleneck. She had repeatedly practiced the same action over and over again, but there was not the slightest hint of joy on her face. Lan 'er saw this and was anxious in her heart. Because of this, she went out even more frequently, just to be able to share the burden with her lady.
"Miss, Miss, look what I've found." On this day, Lan'er happily rushed into Qingfeng Courtyard and shoved a white porcelain bottle into Schilling's Shadow's hand.
Schilling's Shadow looked suspiciously at Lan'er, whose cheeks were red from running. "What is it?"
"Open it and see." Lan'er urged.
Schilling's Shadow did as he was told. He poured the pill out of the bottle onto his palm. "What kind of pill is this?" Why does it smell so strange?
"This is a Strength Pill. Once you take it, your strength will increase greatly. It will help you in the semi-finals." Lan'er said excitedly, "I was lucky today. I ran into someone selling this as soon as I left the house. It looks like even the heavens are helping you."
Strength Strengthening Pill, as the name suggested, was a pill used to increase one's strength. After taking this kind of pill, it could maintain the body's strength for half an hour. With inexhaustible energy, it would be as if one had suddenly been injected with chicken blood, and their spirit would be stimulated and they would bravely move forward.
To put it bluntly, its function was equivalent to a stimulant.
However, this kind of pill also had side effects. After the effects of the pill wore off, the person would feel as if all their energy had been sucked out.
She didn't find it strange that Lan'er would want to buy such a thing for her. After all, from what Lan'er knew of her, her dou qi level was still pitifully low, not enough to compete with anyone. Things like the Strength Strengthening Pill, which could instantly increase one's strength and wasn't too expensive, were indeed the best choice.
However, Schilling's Shadow felt that something was amiss. Wasn't the appearance of this Strength Strengthening Pill too coincidental?
Also, why did the pill smell so strange?
With some doubts, she went into the room and took out a silver needle. She gently touched the surface of the pill and saw that the end of the needle gradually turned black.
Her face immediately darkened. It seemed that someone was trying to harm her behind her back.
She twirled the bottle in her hand as a sinister smile appeared on her face. She, Schilling's Shadow, wasn't someone to be trifled with. Since that person wanted to play … fine, she would play along.
