After informing Situ Yan and the others about the specific situation of Mu Jinse, Baili Hongzhuang returned to her room. Although she knew that sharing this news would make them worry, she believed that keeping them in the dark would only cause more anxiety.
Inside the room, Baili Hongzhuang sat quietly behind her desk, her delicate and elegant face revealing a hint of hidden concern.
"Master, what are you worried about?" Little Black rarely saw Baili Hongzhuang in such a worried state and couldn't help but ask.
Little White and White Lion also looked at Baili Hongzhuang with confusion. They knew that unless there was no other choice, their master would never give up hope.
"The shedding occurs every two years, and now all of my grandmother's skin has completely transformed into its current state. There are only two possibilities for what comes next. One is that there will be no more shedding, and as for the other... if changes occur again, where do you think they will be?" Baili Hongzhuang asked, her eyes filled with fear.
Upon hearing this, the expressions of the three animals froze for a moment, followed by a look of terror.
"Could it be... that the changes will occur internally?" Little White voiced its speculation.
With the maliciousness displayed by Yue Siqing, Baili Hongzhuang didn't believe she would consider any favorable outcomes. Therefore, the first possibility was highly unlikely, leaving only the second possibility – expansion within the body.
Baili Hongzhuang didn't know what would happen if the expansion occurred internally, but she was certain that when that time came, Mu Jinse would suffer immense pain. It was something she least wanted to see and also her biggest concern.
There wasn't much time left until the next outbreak. If they couldn't find a solution during this period, she couldn't predict what they would have to endure.
In that moment, the three animals finally understood that their master hadn't informed the others of the situation from the beginning.
"Master, what are you going to do now?" Little Black's face was filled with worry. Given the current circumstances, they couldn't be of any help since they were completely ignorant in the field of medicine. All they could do was watch their master bear the burden alone.
Baili Hongzhuang's black eyes suddenly deepened, and then a sharp determination emerged, unwavering.
"We must hurry and research. We can only give it our all."
They had reached a point where there was no turning back. They could only exert all their efforts to change the situation.
The method Yue Siqing used on Mu Jinse's leg condition wasn't too complicated, so once Baili Hongzhuang understood the ingredients, she could reproduce it.
The next day, Baili Hongzhuang had already prepared the antidote. The process of detoxification wasn't too complicated, and after handing over the antidote to Mu Lingbing, she returned to her room.
She was racing against time now and didn't want to waste a single moment.
Mu Lingbing seemed to sense that Baili Hongzhuang's mood was different from usual. Although she was very curious, she didn't ask too many questions. Baili Hongzhuang always had her own thoughts, and since she couldn't help in this matter, it was best not to disturb her.
For the next month, Baili Hongzhuang secluded herself in her room, dedicating her time to researching the detoxification method without stepping outside.
