A Cutie Spoiled by Her Seven Uncles-Chapter 72: Uncle is so Wronged

Upon seeing Grandmother Ji’s actions, a sense of panic inexplicably arose in Xiaosuisui’s heart. Her small body unconsciously tilted and fell directly onto Grandmother Ji. Seeing the little girl’s action, Grandmother Ji and Wang Dongxue were both terrified.

"Suisui, move away quickly! It’s dangerous!"

Grandmother Ji raised her hand to push the little girl away, and Wang Dongxue also rushed over to carry her aside.

But then, the dark clouds in the sky suddenly vanished, and the giant Celestial Thunder was gone. The sky became clear and blue, and the fragrance of medicine filled the air.

The small, round pill rolled out from Ji Youran’s hand, and from the sky, another bolt of lightning, as thick as an arm, struck it.

In an instant, the Medicine Pill radiated a golden light.

When heavenly treasures appear in the world, calamities and tribulations inevitably follow, with Celestial Thunder as a punishment.

Ji Youran, Grandmother Ji, and Wang Dongxue were all greatly shocked. So that was it!

Only Xiaosuisui, knowing nothing, stepped forward, picked up the Medicine Pill, and examined it from all sides.

"So you were the one targeted by the Celestial Thunder? Isn’t my Second Uncle terribly wronged then?"

Ji Youran crawled up from the ground, half-dead, releasing a puff of white smoke with every word he spoke.

"I’m more than wronged... I’ve been wronged to death, haven’t I?!"

Then he fainted, collapsing straight to the ground.

"Second Brother!"

Grandmother Ji exclaimed in shock and hurriedly caught him, and together with Wang Dongxue, they carried him back to his room.

They called for a Xiao Er to help find a Doctor, while Grandmother Ji personally bandaged his wounds and applied medicine.

Xiaosuisui looked at her Second Uncle, who lay in bed, completely wrapped in white bandages with only his eyes and mouth visible, staring at her with eyes that seemed to glow gold.

"My dear, tell your Second Uncle, how exactly did you make that Medicine Pill? What kind of heavenly treasure did you add to it?"

Xiaosuisui blinked. What had she added?

"Think carefully. As long as you can remember, tell your Second Uncle. How about I pass on the Medicine King Residence to you in the future?"

Xiaosuisui tilted her little head, blinking. "What’s the Medicine King Residence? Can you eat it?"

"The Medicine King Residence is nothing! A place that can’t even properly refine medicine! And you still have the nerve to mention your Medicine King Residence?" Grandmother Ji snapped as she walked in from outside, followed by the group of Ji Family members who had gone out to find the Altar last night.

"Second Aunt!"

Seeing her Second Aunt, whom she hadn’t seen all night, the little girl rushed straight into her arms.

"Sweetie, don’t come over yet. Your Second Aunt is dirty. I’ve been running around the border of Nanjiang and the Great Han all night, and I’m covered in grass and dust."

"It’s okay! Suisui doesn’t mind."

Xiaosuisui stretched out her little arms, wanting Huo Xing’Er to hold her.

Huo Xing’Er, seeing her eager little expression, placed the compass in her hand on the table and then lifted the girl into her arms.

The little girl saw the compass, didn’t think much of it, and took it in her hand.

The little compass was a brilliant gold, much like the thing she had left teeth marks on last night. She loved these shiny, sparkling treasures.

"Second Aunt, what is this little disc for?" the little girl asked in confusion.

Huo Xing’Er heard her and replied, "It’s used for geomancy."

"Geomancy?" ƒreewebɳovel.com

The little girl didn’t understand what geomancy was. When she said the word, her eyes were full of curiosity.

"It’s for finding places with Spiritual Qi, locations where great fortune lies." Huo Xing’Er whispered in her ear, "Mainly, it’s for locating the Dragon Vein, the site of the nation’s destiny."

Normally, apart from the National Master, no one else is allowed to mention the words ’Dragon Vein.’ You must understand, coveting the Dragon Vein is tantamount to coveting the imperial throne, to wanting to rebel.

"Oh!" The little girl nodded lightly.

She picked up the compass, fiddling with it in her hands, and muttered, "Dragon Vein, Dragon Vein, where are you?"

Hearing this, Huo Xing’Er froze, and in her fright, quickly covered the little girl’s mouth.

"My little Ancestor, you can’t speak such nonsense! If someone with malicious intent hears this, you’ll be beheaded!"

Upon hearing this, Xiaosuisui flinched, nodded in great fear, and unconsciously burrowed deeper into Huo Xing’Er’s embrace.

Seeing Xiaosuisui in this state, Huo Xing’Er knew her words had just frightened the girl, and she quickly comforted her.

"It’s alright. Just don’t speak recklessly like that in the future, understand?"

The little girl nodded vigorously. She wouldn’t speak of the Dragon Vein again, never ever again.

Huo Xing’Er took the compass from her hand. Just as she was about to put it away, her gaze sharpened, and her pupils contracted violently.

"Eldest... Eldest Brother... Quick, come and look at this!"
