Chapter 5 Transaction (asking for votes)

Witch medicine.

At first, Li Aili only thought that "witch medicine" was a method used by the Holy See and the Potion Association to eliminate dissidents.

But in this world where angels and devils are real, the "witch medicine" was brought to the world by the devil. People have all kinds of desires and demands, and there is nothing that a bottle of "witch medicine" can't solve.

After drinking the "witch medicine", people's desires are satisfied and their demands are realized.

And the devil got the human soul.

No one knows what the devil did to those souls, but those souls were indeed gone forever. In this magical continent where true gods exist, this is an extremely terrifying thing.

Therefore, no matter where they are, those who sell "witch medicine" must die.

Li Aili only had a bottle of [healing potion] and couldn't say, 'I can drink it and show it to you to prove that this is not a witch potion.'

She took a deep breath, "Want to bet?"

Li Aili looked directly into the Duke's pale blue eyes.

"There is a knight named Edward Martin in your knighthood. I met his wife yesterday and she was willing to try my potion."

"If the [Cure Potion] saves Knight Edward Martin and her wife loses her soul, then I am willing to pay the price with my life."

"But, if my [healing potion] does not take away anyone's soul, then, Your Excellency, let's make a deal."

"So," Li Ellie took a step closer to Arthur Leng Jade, "do you want to bet, Duke?"

The Duke looked at Li Ellie quietly for a few seconds, and then called out in a deep voice: "Conrad."

A butler with gray hair wearing a black tuxedo walked in and said respectfully: "Master."

"Prepare the carriage and go to Martin's Earl's Mansion."

……

Li Aili got on the Duke's carriage, half of the stone in her heart fell.

But she didn't see Edward Martin's current situation, and she wasn't sure whether the moderately effective [Healing Potion] could cure his injuries.

Plus, sitting in the same carriage as a man with a strong aura.

Although, His Excellency the Duke's carriage is extremely luxurious, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is inlaid with gold and jade.

When Li Aili lowered her head and counted the magic gems inlaid on the carriage for the 61st time, the carriage finally stopped at the entrance of the Earl's Mansion in the upper part of Central City.

I thought that after seeing Edward Martin and pouring the medicine in, the matter would be settled.

Unexpectedly, after being led in by the housekeeper of the Earl's Mansion, he discovered that Edward Martin's bedside was almost "overcrowded".

Surrounded here are seven or eight tall knights, fully armed and wearing armor.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, the knights looked back.

After seeing that the person who came in was the duchess, everyone suppressed the burning anger in their eyes.

Immediately afterwards, Arthur Leng Jade walked in, and the knights tapped the 'brand' on the heart of their armor, "Your Highness."

Li Aili winked at the Duke wildly.

Balk, who was guarding Edward Martin's bedside, asked expectantly: "Your Highness, have 'those people' in the secret prison let go?"

Arthur Leng Jade glanced at Edward Martin who was lying down.

His condition was dire, and his breathing was so weak that he couldn't even notice it unless he looked carefully.

The heroic knight in the past was now covered in bandages, and his burn wounds were almost completely festering. The bandage was soaked with pus and blood. It was hard to believe that someone so seriously injured was still alive.

"No. But there is a way, maybe he can be saved." Arthur Leng Feicui said.

Balk seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes immediately focused on Li Aili.

Rarely, Balk's paralyzed face suddenly turned gloomy, "With all due respect, Your Highness."

"Miss Li Aili seduced Edward's wife. If we hadn't arrived in time today, we don't know what would have happened."

Li Aili was still wondering why Edward Martin's condition suddenly deteriorated, but his wife was indifferent and did not come to find her. Upon hearing this, the case was immediately solved.

The co-author was detained by this group of knights.

Arthur Leng Jade said nothing.

A brown-haired knight behind Balk couldn't hide his anger, "Your Highness! That's witch medicine! If Edward wakes up and finds out that Joanna gave her soul to the devil in order to save her, then he will definitely prefer him to die. Own!"

Li Aili couldn't hold it in anymore and couldn't help but refute: "This is not a witch medicine!"

Several knights looked at her with cold eyes.

Li Aili could only say: "I have a bet with His Highness. If this is witch medicine, I will pay with my life!"

The knights were more stubborn than she thought. A few insisted on standing in front of Edward's bed, but a few wavered.

Seeing the life of the person on the bed passing by, Li Aili got angry and said, "Duke! If we delay it any longer, the medium-effective [healing potion] may not be able to save the person!"

The atmosphere in the room was tense. Duke Leng Jade, who had been silent all this time, raised his eyes to look at the anxious Li Aili and ordered: "Balk, get out of the way."

Balk looked at Duke Leng Jade in disbelief.

Arthur Leng Jade said word by word: "If what she feeds Edward Martin is witch medicine, I will personally chop off her head."

Balk's eyes were red, but the two knight captains beside him exchanged glances, held him up one on the left and the other on the right, and made room for Li Aili.

Li Aili didn't realize that her hands were shaking slightly until she took out the [Healing Potion].

Seeing the alchemy potion that was as red as blood, Balk instantly regretted it.

"This is the witch medicine!"

Even two silver-ranked knight captains couldn't hold Balk down.

He pulled out the knight's sword from his waist with a "clunk" sound.

Li Aili only felt a chill sweep over her. Balk's eyes turned red and he put the knight's sword on her neck.

Li Aili subconsciously turned to look at Arthur Leng Jade.

I don’t know if she was frightened and had a delusion.

At that moment, she seemed to see Arthur Leng's emerald ice-blue eyes turning into vertical pupils that were only found in snakes and lizards.

After that, the knight's sword slid off lightly, leaving only a faint red mark on her neck.

Balk himself knelt on the ground inexplicably, holding his head in pain.

Arthur Leng Jade walked over step by step, and with a tip of his toes, the knight's sword on the ground was picked into his hand.

He held the hilt of the sword with both hands and said in a deep voice to Li Aili who was in a daze: "What are you waiting for?"

Li Aili didn't dare to think about why this guy was standing behind her with a sword.

She stretched out her hand and opened Edward's chin directly, and poured the potion into it.

"Gurgling, gurgling", the red potion was poured into Edward Martin's stomach.

The knights subconsciously held their breath and looked at Edward's situation.

The potion bottle was empty, and Li Ellie also held her breath and carefully observed Edward's condition.

Arthur Leng Jade raised the knight's sword that shone with cold light.

Li Aili closed her eyes subconsciously.

There seemed to be a cold wind blowing across her cheeks. When she reacted and opened her eyes, she saw that the bandage on Edward Martin's hand was cut off.

The hand that was supposed to be severely burned miraculously healed.

Her baby-like pink skin directly made the big knights in the room stare.

"This, this is simply a miracle..." A great knight captain muttered to himself.

"Go and see if his wife's soul has been taken away by the devil." Arthur Leng Jade said in a calm tone.

A great knight commander hurriedly ran out.

Li Aili's heartbeat was as hard to stop as beating a drum, 'dong dong dong'.

[You and the Grand Knight Edward Martin of the Cold Emerald Knights were cured in full view of the public, and gained 26 points of good reputation. 】

Steady!

Li Aili breathed a sigh of relief, and her heartbeat slowly calmed down.

Of course, Joanna was safe and sound. When she rushed into the bedroom, Edward Martin sat up in confusion on the bed.

Joanna, like a baby swallow thrown into the forest, plunged into her husband's arms and burst into tears.

Li Aili wisely exited the room and got on the carriage back to the Duke's Mansion.

She had no choice but to go and see the back garden of the Alchemy House. She felt like grass had grown in her heart and wanted to teleport back to Constantinople immediately.

In the carriage, Arthur Leng Jade, who was sitting opposite her, kept looking at her.

After finally making it to the finish line, Li Aili couldn't wait to get off the carriage and almost missed her step and fell off the carriage.

Fortunately, a pair of big hands grasped her arm firmly and led her back.

Li Aili followed and leaned back, directly hitting the Duke's hard and generous chest.

Then, she smelled the fragrance of marigolds, and heard the man's gentle and low voice, "Be careful, my dear."

Li Aili: "..."

After seeing Li Aili stand firm, the man slowly let go of his hand and asked, "Would you be honored to invite the beautiful lady to have dinner with you?"

The Duke changed the subject, "Let's talk about the deal you mentioned before."

Arthur Leng Jade: Where are today’s recommendation votes, huh?

Li Aili: Dear, one monthly ticket can be exchanged for a bottle of [Desire Potion]. Two of them can unlock any effect. The more you buy, the more you get~
