The Daily Life of a Female Esper in Ancient Times

"My mother is also very good," Li Xia argued a bit for Xu Xinyue. Xu Xinyue was hesitant in her actions, only because she had suffered too much in her youth. She was very afraid that making a wrong decision would affect Li Xia and Wang Hong.

"How could a mother blame her own child?" Yao Niang was just disappointed. Her husband was an upright and fearless gentleman who stood tall. Yet their child had abandoned the principles taught by her parents due to hardship, only thinking about fighting for power and profit. She even hurt her closest relatives for this.

"It's normal for people's hearts to change easily," Li Xia didn't think there was anything wrong with that.

"Give me your hand," Yao Niang reached out to take Li Xia's pulse.

Yao Niang was skilled in poisons, and her medical skills were also quite good. Li Xia's physical condition was very poor. "How did your body end up in such a state?"

"That's why I need to be idle," Li Xia had an expression suggesting that she was like this because she had been too exhausted before and couldn't exert herself anymore.

While the grandmother and granddaughter were chatting happily in the tall building, the mood of the people on the ship was very anxious. Especially Qiu Ling and Qiu Chan, who regretted letting Li Xia go ashore alone.

"I can't wait, I have to go check," Qiu Ling couldn't wait any longer and got up to leave the ship.

"Don't be impulsive," Xiao Changning stopped Qiu Ling, telling her not to act rashly.

They weren't clear about Li Xia's current situation. If she went down rashly like this and upset the other party, it might harm Li Xia, which wouldn't be good.

"I'll go down," Qiu Chan stood up to leave.

"Everyone sit down and don't move. I believe your lady can handle it well," Zhou Heng spoke up to dissuade them.

"My lady," a soldier saw Li Xia approaching, his tone filled with excitement.

Hearing the voice, the others all came out and saw Li Xia walking towards them with light steps.

"My lady," Qiu Ling and Qiu Chan jumped off the ship and came to Li Xia's side, carefully checking if she had any injuries.

"Qiu Ling, you don't need to check anymore. I've found the person I was looking for," Li Xia's words startled Qiu Ling. That person was here?

"What person?" Zhou Heng came down and asked.

"My mother's mother," Li Xia's words shocked everyone present.

"Madam Xu didn't die?" Zhou Heng knew that Li Xia had been investigating Madam Xu's affairs.

"The Poison Lady is her," Li Xia's words shocked everyone present again. The Poison Lady, who stood between pirates and sea merchants, turned out to be Li Xia's own maternal grandmother. There was nothing more surprising in this world than this.

"The women in your family are all extraordinary," Zhou Heng sighed. Behind him, Qing Niang was unhappy with Zhou Heng praising Li Xia.

"I'm extraordinary too."

"Yes, you are extraordinary," Zhou Heng said helplessly, thinking her skill at being clingy was extraordinary.

Li Xia decided to stay temporarily on Crescent Moon Island. She had people pack their belongings to go live on the island.

"My lady, can the Poison Lady be trusted?" With the previous incident involving Wu Dazhuang, Qiu Chan harbored some doubts about these bandits. After all, you can't judge a book by its cover.

"Qiu Chan has become clever. She can even say 'you can't judge a book by its cover'."

Faced with Li Xia's praise, Qiu Chan didn't feel any joy. She was now full of worry that the Poison Lady might be tricking them onto the island to trap them.

"Go pack the luggage," Li Xia didn't explain further and just told Qiu Chan to pack.

Seeing that Li Xia had made a decision, Qiu Chan couldn't say anything more. She turned and went back to the room to pack.

Yao Niang's poison skills were on par with Zhou Heng's, and the two of them had a delightful exchange. Xiao Changning also joined in to listen. The three of them discussed and made significant adjustments to Li Xia's treatment plan.

Yao Niang also knew where to find the snake heart grass. It was on a small island behind Crescent Moon Island, full of poisonous snakes and plants, a good place for refining poisons.

Many of the raw materials Yao Niang used for refining poisons came from Snake Island.

Yao Niang took Zhou Heng to Snake Heart Island, spent three days collecting snake heart grass, and concocted a new medicine. Xiao Changning also brought Li Xia's body to its best condition.

Worried that Li Xia couldn't bear the pain, Yao Niang had people find dark iron to make chains, planning to tie Li Xia's hands and feet to prevent her from hurting herself.

"I'm very good at enduring pain," Li Xia felt it wasn't necessary.

"Just in case," Yao Niang insisted on bringing Li Xia to the cold cave on Crescent Moon Island. After learning about Li Xia's abilities from Zhou Heng, Yao Niang decided to arrange Li Xia's treatment location in the cold cave.

Li Xia always complied with the care of her elders. She gestured for Qiu Chan and Qiu Ling to tie her hands and feet.

Worried that the chains would chafe Li Xia's hands and feet, the two carefully wrapped silk around the parts that would touch her skin.

Zhou Heng stepped forward and poured out the medicine, feeding it to Li Xia who frowned; this medicine was more bitter than any she had taken before.

"Last time, good medicine tastes bitter," Zhou Heng repeated his usual phrase. Li Xia no longer had the energy to respond to him. As the medicine entered her stomach, it felt like a furnace exploding. Li Xia closed her eyes and endured the pain.

"My lady," Qiu Ling wanted to step forward but was pulled back by Qiu Chan. They couldn't disturb Li Xia.

Everyone knew that Li Xia was very good at enduring pain. But the fact that she couldn't help but let out sounds showed how severe the pain was.

"Is this okay?" Qiu Ling looked at Xiao Changning worriedly.

"These chains are made of dark iron, swords and knives can't cut them," Xiao Changning said confidently. Just as he finished speaking, due to the pain, Li Xia exerted force and the chain on her right hand shattered directly.

This slap in the face came so quickly that Xiao Changning didn't know what to say.

Li Xia tore off the foot chains. As she moved, a fierce wind arose in the cave.

If this continued, the cold cave would collapse. "Stop her quickly!" Yao Niang shouted to the others.

But the wind prevented everyone from getting close. Li Xia still had consciousness and knew she would hurt them if she stayed here. She plunged into the sea nearby and left.

Everyone chased out, and the originally calm sea surface was now raging with wind, raising a tornado.

"What's going on?" Xiao Changning couldn't help but look at the distant tornado.

"My lady, my lady!" Qiu Ling and Qiu Chan called out loudly, trying to find Li Xia. Zhou Heng was also anxious to go forward and check, but the wind was too strong, and he couldn't get through.

"A storm is coming!"

"A tsunami is coming!"

The island residents shouted and quickly hid.

The complete rebellion of her abilities made Li Xia's whole body ache incessantly. She had seen the impact caused by high-level ability users going out of control before. She couldn't stay on Crescent Moon Island, or she would flip the entire island.

The wind carried Li Xia away from Crescent Moon Island, and the uncontrollable wind whipped up waves after waves, rushing towards the surroundings, towards Crescent Moon Island and the mainland.

Lu XuanNing, who was arranging plans to catch all three families of Hai City and their behind-the-scenes forces in one fell swoop, was startled by the sudden storm outside. Such a violent storm, he wondered how Xia Xia and the others were doing.

"Father," Lu Liucheng ran in wearing his undergarments. He had been awakened by the storm.

"Why aren't you asleep yet?" Lu XuanNing took a cloth to wipe the rainwater off him.

"Father, with such a big storm, will mother be in danger?" Lu Liucheng already knew that Li Xia had gone to sea. He had heard Yu say that during storms, few who sail can return alive. Lu Liucheng was so worried about Li Xia that he couldn't sleep.

Lu XuanNing was also very worried that Li Xia might be in danger, but he couldn't show it in front of Lu Liucheng. "Your mother is very capable, she won't be in danger. Don't worry."
