Their true feelings revealed: the beastly husbands are working themselves to the bone every night.

Chapter 104 Many thanks to the Second Miss for the antidote flower

On the city wall, Su Mo couldn't help but sneeze, and her eyelids twitched involuntarily.

What's going on? Why does the air suddenly feel chilly?

The next second, Fei Yan took off her outer robe and draped it over her shoulders.

Su Mo glanced at him, wondering what he meant by his action.

Xiao Jiu suddenly appeared: "Host, extremely strong killing intent detected! Danger!"

Su Mo frowned: "Do you need to tell me? I've already sensed it! So who wants to kill me?!"

The next second, Fei Yan's brows furrowed deeply, and the others who were fighting also paused.

Xiao Jiu: "We are currently investigating... The distance is too far to make a judgment."

Su Mo: "Are you even of any use anymore???"

Xiao Jiu sobbed pitifully, "I'm just a system, not omnipotent... It's all Xiao Jiu's fault for not satisfying the host, waaaaah~"

Su Mo frowned and said disdainfully, "Alright, stop pretending in front of me, the movie queen! Since it's not someone from nearby, it must be Jin Tong and that female lead. Honestly, can't we just let people be cannon fodder in a proper way..."

Xiao Jiu: "I'm afraid you won't be cannon fodder. Judging from the current plot, I think you have the potential to be the protagonist~ Keep it up!"

Su Mo's eyes widened: "That damn system is trying to trick me again! Being the protagonist means being hunted down! Tell me, has the management bureau given you a new mission?!"

"No, that's not it~ My boss thinks our line has collapsed too completely and we've already given up..."

Su Mo frowned: "How exactly do you mean by 'letting things fall apart'?"

Xiao Jiu stammered, "The boss said that since I've already had eight hosts, one more won't matter... But Xiao Jiu doesn't want the host to die! So let's just be the protagonist! That way we shouldn't have to die!"

Su Mo was furious. "Does your System Management Bureau even have any humanity?! You're treating human life like dirt! Tell your superiors that if I die, I'll crawl down the internet cable and take him with me!"

Xiao Jiu: "Host, you're so kind... You didn't even say you'd take Xiao Jiu away~ You even offered to help me deal with that heartless leader, sob sob sob~ I'm so touched!"

Su Mo was speechless. Were we even on the same page?

She hummed in response, "...There's no need to be so touched. Is it possible that I just forgot to mention it?"

Xiao Jiu's crying stopped abruptly: "Host, you have no conscience! I even shamelessly begged the leader for you, thinking of upgrading your poison formula!"

Su Mo's eyes lit up when she heard this: "Good Xiao Jiu, good Xiao Jiu, I was wrong~ I was terribly wrong!"

Xiao Jiu frowned and said, "The poison is in the system lab. See for yourself! I'm leaving! Hmph~"

A woman who changes her attitude faster than flipping a page is despicable!
Su Mo originally wanted to feign reluctance to stay, but the damn system ran away too fast.

She quietly took out the poison from the laboratory, and the poison's components were displayed on the spatial panel.

Su Mo immediately took out some medicinal powder and handed it to Fei Yan with a smile: "Let the Second Miss find an opportunity to use it and finish this quickly."

Although Jin Tong was quite knowledgeable about poisons, it would take him some time to research an antidote. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Tiger Clan pressed their advantage and were not afraid of being defeated.

After explaining how to use it, Su Mo went down from the city wall.

Many more wounded soldiers arrived in the courtyard, and Xuanwei was busy treating their wounds.

Su Mo went over to help and asked about the situation outside.

"We should know the outcome by nightfall at the latest." Su Mo had a feeling that Jin Tong and Jiang Wu wouldn't last long.

Although they came prepared, the number of people they brought was limited, and the Tiger Clan now had reinforcements from Longyan. The current situation was unfavorable for them, so they probably wouldn't be foolish enough to engage in a head-on confrontation.

After all, the female protagonist's ambitions extend beyond just the tiger clan; she desires the entire beast world continent.

Losing your wings for the sake of a tiger clan is not something a smart person would do.

Xuanwei looked at Su Mo in surprise, and seeing that she didn't seem to be joking, she breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, the ceasefire took place sooner than Su Mo had anticipated.

Before dusk, Xuan Shuang seized the opportunity to use the medicine given to her by Su Mo, and then took the chance to kill one of the enemy's generals, greatly reducing the enemy's morale.

Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, Jiang Wu hastily withdrew his troops.

On the way back, they were caught off guard by the people lying in ambush in Longyan.

This battle was much more exhausting than Jiang Wu had anticipated.

But it's okay, she'll come again!

The tiger clan, being so small, will eventually become hers; it will just take a little more effort.

Meanwhile, the tiger clan was already preparing a victory celebration banquet.

Mo Xiao and the others had no interest in getting involved in these matters; all they could think about was how to detoxify Su Mo.

When Xuan Shuang's servants came to call them, they were all in Su Mo's room.

The servant said, "Miss Su, the Second Miss requests your presence in the study."

Su Mo nodded and followed him outside.

Fei Yan and the others exchanged a glance and started to follow.

Inside Xuan Shuang's study, the three siblings, along with Bai Chi, Tian Huan, and Long Yan, were all present.

"Miss Su!"

Long Yan spoke first, his dark eyes brightening the moment he saw Su Mo.

Su Mo looked at him and smiled slightly.

"Miss Su, you've arrived."

Tianhuan and Bai Chire also greeted them.

Su Mo smiled and looked at Xuan Shuang, saying, "Second Miss."

Xuan Shuang smiled heartily at her, arranged for Su Mo and the others to sit down, exchanged a few polite words, and then got down to business.

"Thanks to the great help of Miss Su and the others, the Tiger Clan was able to escape so quickly. If you have any needs in the future, I, Xuan Shuang, will do my best to help you without hesitation."

Upon hearing this, Mo Xiao and the others' expressions shifted slightly, and they subconsciously looked at Su Mo. Su Mo smiled; Xuan Shuang's words meant she was waiting for her to bring up that matter herself.

Su Mo was too lazy to be polite with her and said directly, "I do have a favor to ask. I've heard that the Tiger Clan has a twin flower. I'd like to ask for a few plants to see if they can cure the poison in my body."

Upon hearing this, Bai Chi and Tian Huan looked surprised. Was Miss Su asking for their Tiger Clan's guardian flower, 'Beauty's Smile'?
That thing is not something ordinary people dare to eat, and it is extremely difficult to grow, so it is not easily given away.

But judging from the second young lady's expression, it seemed that she had already anticipated that Miss Su would make this request.

Xuan Shuang: "It's not that I'm reluctant to give it away, but does Miss Su really know the effects of 'Beauty's Smile'?"

Su Mo frowned. So the flower was called 'Beauty's Smile'? She didn't seem to have seen this name in the system lab.

It's likely that the information from the systems laboratory isn't comprehensive.

Xuan Shuang spoke up in time: "The Beauty's Smile is a highly poisonous substance. Its cultivation process is extremely complicated, and its growth is very slow. Although it is the guardian flower of the Tiger Clan, in recent years, apart from using it to clear away miasma, no one has ever eaten it."

Mo Xiao and Fei Yan exchanged glances. They were only focused on helping their wife detoxify, and hadn't expected the flower to be so complicated.

He frowned and said, "Could you let my wife take a look first?"

Xuanwei explained, "There are only two mature plants in the forest right now, and I've already sent someone to fetch them. If they are truly effective against the poison in Miss Su's body, I will offer her another one. However, once this flower is picked, it must be consumed within an hour, otherwise the poison will be completely neutralized, and it will be no different from ordinary weeds."

Su Mo frowned.

[She sounds extremely delicate.]

Footsteps sounded outside, and Black Tiger came in carrying something.

"Second Miss, the things have been gathered."

Xuan Shuang gestured for him to hand it to Su Mo.

Su Mo took it, picked it up and looked at it. Sure enough, it was a pair of stems, one red and one white.

The petals are as thin as cicada wings, pure white and vibrant red, truly beautiful.

No wonder it's called 'Beauty's Smile'.

Xiao Jiu: "Host, this really is poisonous. I've never seen any plant emit such a strong poisonous gas before!"

Su Mo asked silently, "Can I put it into the spiritual spring space to grow?"

"It seems unlikely. It was fed a lot of poison during its growth, and the spiritual spring space doesn't have the conditions for that. Besides, it will lose its effectiveness an hour after it's picked."

Su Mo frowned: "Won't I die if I eat it?"

Xiao Jiu was silent for a long time: "This... I really don't know, host, please be careful, sob sob sob, Xiao Jiu doesn't want anything to happen to you~ I want to stay with you for a long, long time!"

Su Mo frowned: "Shut up! You're giving me a headache."

She held the flower in her hand to her nose and smelled it.

Could it really be that one thing can counteract another? Perhaps I should try eating a leaf first?

The expressions of Yueying and the others were taken aback, and someone was asked first, "My lady!"

Although they desperately wanted their wife to be cured of the poison, they were even more afraid that something might happen to her.

Fei Yan strode over, staring at the flower in her hand, and said, "I have the same poison as the mistress in my body, I'll try it first!"

After saying that, he went to pick the flower petals from Su Mo's hand.

Su Mo frowned and dodged away: "You don't have much toxin in your body, there's no need for this."

She knew what Fei Yan meant; he wanted to test the poison for her.

However, he didn't have much poison in his body, so he could live a normal life without detoxification.

She didn't want to see him take risks for her.

"Wife master!"

Fei Yan frowned at her, her tone carrying an unprecedented pleading tone: "I can do it, please let me try first."

Before Su Mo could speak again, Long Yan flashed in front of her and stared at the thing in Su Mo's hand, saying, "Why don't you let me try it!"

Su Mo frowned slightly, her heart suddenly trembled, and an indescribable emotion surged into her heart.

They're all so reckless, acting as if testing poison is some kind of lucrative job...

Long Yan's expression was more serious than ever before: "Miss Su saved my life, and I should repay this favor!"

Fei Yan frowned: "My lady, let me do it!"

Mo Xiao frowned and said, "I am the highest-ranking among them. Why don't you plant this poison in my body first, and then I will try it?"

Yueying then said, "Let me do it."

Canglan exclaimed excitedly, "I can do it too!"

Su Mo remained silent for a moment.

His cold gaze swept over them one by one: "All of you, give up that idea! This is a matter of life and death, how can we treat it like a child's play!"

His eyes held an undeniable air of authority.

After saying that, she picked up the flower and stood up, saying, "Thank you for the flower, Second Miss. Please allow me to take it back to my room and study it."

Fei Yan frowned and followed, and Mo Xiao and the others also quickly followed.

The next moment, Longyan hurriedly followed.

Bai Chi and Tian Huan exchanged a glance and quickly followed him out.

Soon, the three siblings, Xuan Shuang and her brother, followed.
