"Hmph, how rare. I'm just afraid of having a life but no chance to take it!"
Sang Qingxiao didn't want to stay even a moment longer. "I can't help you."
"How can you not help?"
Ling Qian suddenly sat up from her half-reclined position, her gentle eyes turning fierce. "What price do you want, miss? Just name it. Even if I can't provide it, I have the royal family backing me. I won't let you down; I only ask that you save my life."
"Save you? I thought I was here to save the child in your womb."
Ling Qian raised her hand to touch her abdomen, pretending to be a caring mother, but the disdain and disgust in her eyes were clearly seen by Sang Qingxiao.
"If you can save both me and my child, that would be even better."
"I'm still young at twenty, with little experience. I can't save anyone; it's beyond my ability."
Sang Qingxiao refused again. Before Ling Qian could plead further, she turned and left the room. Passing by Qi Xiaomian, she urged him, "Take me away."
Qi Xiaomian complied, but just as he turned, they heard the woman's sharp cry from inside. "Sang Qingxiao, what kind of master are you? You could clearly save me, yet you choose to watch me die! I'm a royal daughter-in-law; if you don't help me, even if I have only one breath left, I'll go to the palace and report you!"
Sang Qingxiao stopped in her tracks, looking troubled at the Second Prince. "Alas, the situation is dire. I'm just an exorcist; there's nothing I can do. I thought my presence would ease her mind as you said, but clearly, Consort of the Second Prince has sought help from the wrong person. Your Highness should quickly post a reward for a skilled doctor; perhaps we can find someone suitable."
The Second Prince couldn't force it either. Ling Qian's cries continued as Qi Xiaomian urged him to go inside and take care of her while he led Sang Qingxiao out of the Prince's Mansion.
Sang Qingxiao walked quickly, and after several streets outside, she finally slowed down and muttered with a grim expression, "What bad luck!"
"I promise I won't let them bother you again," Qi Xiaomian assured.
That reckless person sees me as their last hope; how could you possibly stop such desperation? Just wait and see; there's bound to be trouble!
"How about I take you out of the city for a while?"
Sang Qingxiao glared at him. "What do you mean? The Small Tavern is my main business! What kind of lazy approach is that?"
"But there's Misha! When it comes to the Small Tavern, he cares more than you do."
Sang Qingxiao shook her head. "No, I'm staying in the city to wait for her outcome."
"Outcome? Are you saying she won't live long?"
Sang Qingxiao snorted coldly.
"If you intervene, can she survive?"
Sang Qingxiao glared at him again. "You want me to save her?"
No, whether she is dead or alive is none of my concern; I am just curious why you didn't show such anger over the Pang Family matter. That kid carries nothing but a Demon Life on his back. This woman has a wicked heart; she has harmed countless Demon Lives and even used her own children to deflect blame. A tiger does not eat its own cubs, yet she killed Midnight without a shred of remorse.
Those three children, are they all dead because of her? Four, including the one in her womb, who has long since ceased to live. Not only the children, but if it weren't for the true dragon aura protecting the Second Prince, he would have been reduced to nothing by now.
