Ran Pingyu and Ran Yunsheng stepped aside, but in fact, they only retreated to a partition that was merely a few screens away.
Ran Yan glanced at the partition, and seeing that no one stopped her, she stood up to follow Xiao Song out of the hall and toward the Inner Gate.
Before she even left the Inner Gate, Ran Yan saw two guards standing outside guarding something. As she approached, she was surprised to find that what lay across the ground was a tree with a trunk as thick as a wrist!
"This tree is called 'blood-sealing throat', and from its name, you can tell it's even more potent than poison." Xiao Song explained.
Ran Yan had heard of this type of tree but was seeing it with her own eyes for the first time. However, she didn't understand, "What are you giving me this for?"
Xiao Song paused for a moment, then said, "I heard Shilang say that you like to prepare your own medicines, so I brought it over for you to see if it's useful."
