Tinari checked Cole and confirmed that his magic scale disease was really cured. He was overjoyed.
"Great! Cole, your magic scale disease is finally cured."
Tinari turned around and bowed slightly to Nashida.
"Little King of Auspicious Grass, thank you for your treatment. Cole is my student. I have always been worried about her magic scale disease."
Nashida smiled.
"No need to thank me, you can help me gather patients with magic scale disease first."
Tinari quickly agreed and ran outside to gather patients with magic scale disease in Huachengguo.
After Tinari left, Nashida looked at Cole.
"Cole, do you know how many patients with magic scale disease there are in Huachengguo?" Cole thought for
a moment.
"Let me think, the last count was 137 people, and there are 136 people excluding me."
Nashida nodded when she heard it, took out her small wallet, counted out 13,600 star coins from it and handed them to Ye Yun.
"Ye Yun, please buy me 136 bottles of Elf Spring Water."
Ye Yun heard this and bought 136 bottles of Elf Spring Water for Nashida.
Kong, who was standing by, sneaked up to Ye Yun.
"Are you the magical shop owner?"
Ye Yun looked at Kong.
"Yes, what's wrong?"
Kong smiled.
"I want to buy something from you, something that can enhance my strength. It doesn't have to be too strong, just strong enough to love my stinky sister."
Ye Yun was amazed. Sure enough, siblings are each other's biggest enemies when there is no external danger.
"Of course, do you have star coins?"
Kong was more or less silent.
He knew about star coins and knew that they could be exchanged for raw stones.
However, the raw stones in Liyue Harbor had long been taken away by Zhongli, Ningguang and others.
Kong also tried to find raw stones, but didn't find any.
Kong ran to the side in dejection and continued to eat his grilled mushroom skewers.
Soon.
Tinari returned to the room.
"Lord Little King of Auspicious Grass, the patients with Magic Scale Disease have been gathered."
Nashida smiled.
"Thank you for your hard work, Tinari."
Tinari shook his head quickly.
"This is what I should do."
Nashida walked outside.
"Let's go, let's distribute the medicine."
Nashida took Tinari and Cole to a relatively spacious place.
The patients with Magic Scale Disease who were summoned were very confused. Why were they called here?
Until seeing Tinari appear again, a patient with Magic Scale Disease could not suppress his curiosity and asked.
"Lord Tinari, I wonder why you summoned us here? Have you already developed a medicine to treat Magic Scale Disease?"
As he spoke, the patient with Magic Scale Disease became excited.
Many people in Xumi knew that Tinari was researching a medicine to treat Magic Scale Disease.
Therefore, these patients gathered in Huachengguo.
Tinari shook his head.
"I haven't figured it out, but you are saved.
Little Auspicious Grass King brought medicine that can cure the magic scale disease, and my student Kelai has been cured."
After saying that, Tinari made way for everyone to see Nashida and Kelai.
"Little Auspicious Grass King? Isn't the god of our Xumi the Great Kindness Tree King?"
"What are you talking about? The Great Kindness Tree King is the former grass god, and Little Auspicious Grass King is the current grass god."
"Little Auspicious Grass King! Have you really brought medicine that can cure the magic scale disease?"
Nashida waved her hand, and several vines stretched out from the ground.
"Kelai, put the medicine here."
Hearing this, Kelai put the elf spring water in his hand on the table woven with vines.
Nashida looked around at the people below.
"Everyone, you have suffered for so long. I brought medicine. This medicine can really cure the magic scale disease. Everyone line up, don't get confused, come one by one to receive it."
Hearing this, the magic scale disease patients present lined up consciously and looked at Nashida eagerly.
Nashida waved to the first patient in front of her.
"Come and get the medicine."
At this time, Tinari bowed slightly.
"Little Lucky Grass King, I'll do this, you can rest next to me."
Nashida smiled and shook her head.
"It's okay, I'll do it."
Nashida picked up a bottle of fairy spring water and put it in the patient's hand.
"You will feel better after drinking it."
Hearing this, the patient opened the bottle cap and drank it all.
As for whether he was worried that the medicine was poisonous? There was definitely some worry, but it was not big.
Suffering from the magic scale disease would make people very painful, and it would be better to die, and it would be over once and for all.
As the first patient drank the fairy spring water, other patients cast curious eyes.
Soon, the face of the magic scale patient became shocked, and he felt that his body was getting better.
The magic scale patient was very excited, and he actually tore open his shirt and saw the black scales that were fading.
"Hahahaha! It's really good! I'm really good! Little Lucky Grass King! Thank you for the magic medicine you gave me!" Nashida
helped the patient up.
"Go to the side and rest first, and make room for other patients, okay?" Nashida said with a smile.
The cured patient looked at Nashida, and at this moment, Nashida's image was full of holiness and kindness in his eyes.
"Yes, yes, thank you, Little King of Auspicious Grass!"
Then, Nashida continued to distribute medicine.
After being cured, the patients with magic scale disease present were all grateful to Nashida.
Nashida looked at the empty vine table in front of her and smiled happily.
She finally did something for the people of Xumi.
Just as Nashida was about to put away the vine table, a hand reached out, with scales drawn with a black pen on it.
"Ah~ Lady Nashida, I am also a patient with magic scale disease, please give me a bottle of medicine!"
Nashida looked up and saw that it was Xing!
Next to Xing, there were Sanyueqi and Liuying.
"Xing! Sanyue! And this one?"
Nashida had never seen Liuying before, so she didn't know her.
Liuying smiled.
"Hello, Nashida, my name is Liuying."
Nashida smiled back.
"Hello, Liuying, nice to meet you."
Sanyueqi rolled his eyes at Xing.
"Xing, you are sick again, aren't you?"
Xing, who pretended to be weak and lying next to the vine table, heard the words.
"What are you talking about! What are you talking about! Don't you see so many black scales on my hand?"
Nashida smiled when she saw this, and with a wave of her little hand, the "black scales" on Xing's arm were swept away.
"Okay, patient, I have cured your disease~"
Xing smiled and put down his sleeves.
Ye Yun was a little curious when he saw the three of them.
"Why did you three come to Xumi?"
Liuying said.
"We were a little bored in the car, so we came here to play. We heard that you brought Klee and the others here."
Ye Yun heard this.
"Is that so? Then come together. If you three run around, I'm afraid you will set the rain forest of Xumi on fire."
More than half an hour later.
Nashida, Yuri, Bailu Qiqiliu, Kevin, March 7th, Liuying, Tinari, Collei, and Aether gathered at Tinari's house to rest.
Tinari asked, "Little Auspicious Grass King, is there anything you need my help with later?"
Nashida thought for a moment. "No, I plan to go to the desert to help improve the lives of the people there."
Tinari understood instantly. Nashida wanted to regain the hearts of the desert dwellers, to make them return to her side. For years, Sumeru had been governed by the Church Order Institute, causing many citizens to revere the Order over Nashida.
Nashida could easily suppress the Church Order Institute with sheer strength—but that would only sow further discord among the people.
After thinking for a while, Tinari offered, "Little Auspicious Grass King, if you're going to the desert, I know someone who might help you. If she agrees, your journey will be much easier."
Nashida tilted her head in thought. "You mean the Blazing Lion, Dehya?"
Tinari blinked in surprise. "Lord Little Auspicious Grass King... how did you know that?"
"In the desert, there's only one person with both the heart and strength to help—Dehya. I doubt you'd recommend anyone with... questionable morals."
Tinari couldn't help but admire Nashida even more. That clarity of judgment—so worthy of the Dendro Archon.
"Yes, exactly. She's currently serving as the bodyguard for Dunyarzad. They're close. If you can offer medicine to help Dunyarzad, Dehya will gladly support you."
Nashida's eyes softened. "Dunyarzad..."
Dunyarzad was Nashida's first real friend.
"Tinari, please contact Dehya. Ask her to bring Dunyarzad to Huachengguo."
"Understood," Tinari said with a nod, quickly leaving to carry out the request.
Inside the room, the rest continued to rest. Cole prepared lunch. Aether, meanwhile, slipped quietly outside.
Unbeknownst to him, Kevin had been watching him sneak out the entire time.
Kevin followed behind stealthily.
"Hey, Ying's brother, why are you sneaking around?"
Aether sighed. "My name's Aether, not Ying's brother. I'm going to spread word among the people of Huachengguo. All that medicine distributed today? It shouldn't be wasted."
Kevin's curiosity was piqued. "Oh? What kind of word are you spreading?"
"What else? Exposing the Church Order's crimes. They kept Nashida imprisoned, which caused people with Magic Scale Disease to suffer unnecessarily."
Kevin grinned. "This sounds fun. I'm in!"
"Alright," Aether said, smirking. "I'll tell you a few of the Church Order's darker secrets. We'll spread them separately."
After Aether briefed him, Kevin dashed off to share the rumors.
In a small plaza, a group of older women were chatting. Kevin approached with a dramatic whisper.
"Did you know? The Church Order is doing evil human experiments! How do I know? Well~ the son of my cousin's third brother-in-law's second cousin is in the Order and told me. Just between us—don't spread it."
That last part was Aether's genius. Tell people not to spread something, and it spreads even faster.
Soon, the rumors about the Church Order's cruelty swept through Huachengguo like wildfire. Outrage erupted.
How could they imprison the Little Auspicious Grass King? Especially when she had the cure all along!
Especially furious were those suffering from Magic Scale Disease. They didn't speak—they prepared to march on the Order.
Luckily, Tinari's forest rangers intercepted them in time.
Nashida listened to Cole's report while watching Aether and Kevin sipping juice like nothing happened.
She didn't even have to ask—she already knew who was behind this.
Still, she appreciated the effort.
In Liyue, she once heard Zhongli call this the "war of public opinion."
Meanwhile, in Sumeru City, Tinari's messenger found Dehya walking with Dunyarzad.
"Dunyarzad, we should return. Your health—"
"I just want to walk a little longer, Dehya. Just a little."
Dehya sighed. "You're still sick, Dunyarzad."
"I know," she said with a soft smile. "But I'm happy out here."
Just then, the messenger approached. "Are you Dehya?"
"That's me. Who's asking?"
"I was sent by Lord Tinari. He requests that you and Miss Dunyarzad come to Huachengguo. He also said... if you want to cure her Magic Scale Disease, you should come."
Dehya frowned. "Magic Scale Disease is incurable. Are you saying Tinari can cure it?"
"Not just him. The Little Auspicious Grass King. She has the medicine. Even Kelai was cured."
Dehya froze. Kelai? She knew him—he had the disease.
That changed everything.
Even if the journey was hard, it was worth the chance.
"Dunyarzad, what do you think?"
Dunyarzad smiled gently. "Of course. Let's go."
Dehya nodded, scooping Dunyarzad onto her back. The three of them set off toward Huachengguo.
From a distance, someone watched them—Alhaitham.
"Tinari has a cure? How interesting," Alhaitham mused, then followed them quietly.
