Besides, points were earned to be spent.

“I’m not even heartbroken over my points yet. What are you heartbroken about?”

Wei Na chuckled and explained, “I… I’m just feeling sorry for you.”

It felt sorry that they had to lose their painstakingly acc.u.mulated points, not knowing when they would be able to earn so many points again.

“Alright, let’s not talk about how many points we have. Master, are you reclaiming another piece of land to grow the marrow apricot blossoms?” it asked.

“That’s right. Where else can I find so many marrow apricot blossoms?” An Jiuyue replied.

Fortunately, there were other uses for the marrow apricot blossoms, so it was not a waste of points. Of course, she had to find a marrow apricot first.

“Master, you can just plant one marrow apricot tree, so we can also plant some other medicinal herbs,” Wei Na suggested.

An Jiuyue replied, “Mhm.” It felt like she was forced to grow more herbs from now on.

“One more thing, Master! Do you want to settle the issue regarding the poison first?” Wei Na reminded her.

“You may only lose 100 points now, but what if someone uses the poison to kill more people in the future? Won’t your points become negative?”

It felt bad at the thought of the points in the Points Mall possibly turning negative.

An Jiuyue was taken aback when she heard the word “negative”.

She wanted to do something about it, but how could she if they had yet to figure out who the hidden culprit was?

“There’s no need. I’ll give the antidote to Qian Jiyun and let him distribute it. If the person wants to kill people, then we’ll save people. I don’t believe he can defeat us!”

“Uh…” Wei Na was rendered speechless.

Even the most vicious person would not dare kill someone so easily, right?

Firstly, refining poison would require a large number of medicinal herbs. The more herbs he needed, the easier it would be to find him. The culprit hidden in the shadows would be exposed.

Secondly, the person who refined the poison would not be foolish enough to kill ordinary people with it. He would use it on those he wanted to deal with instead.

However, his plans would fail if his victims had the antidote.

“Master…”

“Although I have the antidote, I still hope that the person in the shadows will be revealed as soon as possible,” An Jiuyue said before Wei Na could say anything.

Having someone lurking in the dark and waiting to harm them was really worrying.

“I think it has something to do with Prince Lei Ting. The person with the poison may be working for him,” Wei Na said.

“Maybe.” An Jiuyue nodded but did not say anything else.

They still did not know who was behind this and could only speculate about Prince Lei Ting.

“Let’s find a bigger marrow apricot tree first. We’ll talk about the rest later.”

“Master, marrow apricot trees are rare,” Wei Na reminded her.

Finding a small marrow apricot tree was rare, let alone a large one. Marrow apricot trees were hard to grow as they could not withstand extreme cold or heat. It was as fragile as a flower growing in a greenhouse.

It was almost impossible for an apricot tree to grow tall unless…

Before Wei Na could say anything, An Jiuyue said, “I’ve seen it there.”

She had really seen a marrow apricot tree recently.
