Days passed quietly, and after seven days, Duan Rong had changed as if he were a different person. Though still slim and frail, his cheeks were tinged with a faint rosiness, the color of health, and his eyes shone with light.
Duan Rong and Lady Li knelt before Bai Xiaobai, expressing their gratitude. They had survived this ordeal.
Bai Xiaobai tossed a small vial to them, "Take one each day for a month. Not only will it counteract any remaining poison, but it will also benefit your health and strengthen your body."
Duan Rong caught it and said, "We truly have no way to repay the great kindness and favor of White Ghost Doctor. Is there anything Ghost Doctor requires?"
"What I want, you cannot give," Bai Xiaobai looked at him. "I intervened because you are people of Wufu. Remember, your life was given by her. Pledge your loyalty unto death, never to betray, and it will not be in vain that she saved you."
