Stunning Poisonous Doctor Princess Chapter 868

Chapter 868 Meeting on Mount Yu

“But Miss, didn’t you say that the effect of those medicines would only last for half a year? If Ningqiu were to expose herself half a year later, all our previous efforts would be wasted, right?”

Lin Mengya nodded. Indeed, the medicine she had made could only last for half a year.

But in half a year, Xiaoyu might have complete control over the royal venomous insect.

At that time, all the venomous insects in the Pool of Various Venomous Insects would obey Xiaoyu’s orders.

Then couldn’t Ningqiu be the chosen witch for as long as she wanted?

“So I must figure it out before Xiaoyu enters the Pool of Various Venomous Insects. Baisu, it goes like your martial arts. No matter how sharp your sword is, if your martial arts are not strong enough and your moves are not powerful enough, no matter how powerful the divine weapon you have, it will be like a pile of broken copper and iron in your hands.”

Lin Mengya’s gaze drifted unconsciously into the distance. What she could do was limited, but Xiaoyu’s potential was limitless.

Although her blood could help Xiaoyu subdue the royal venomous insect for the time being, it was not a long-term solution.

She had heard from Madame Jingrou that the royal venomous insect was extremely special.

Not to mention that it could choose its master freely, even the fact that it could control a large number of Lieyun people was enough to show that this thing was not simple.

In fact, Lin Mengya had also studied it before. She found that strictly speaking, these venomous insects in Lieyun Empire were not animals or plants, but they were indeed very special creatures in the form of life.

According to the a.n.a.lysis of her brain trained by modern medicine, these so-called venomous insects were more of a kind of special poison that could be controlled by human beings.

Moreover, this kind of poison was very special. Its source was nowhere to be found, including how it was produced. For Lin Mengya, it was a mystery that could not be solved.

But this kind of poison could be bred through the human body for generations to come.

If the poison hadn’t been activated in a special way, it might have remained latent forever, without any danger to the human body and without being noticed.

But once it was activated, the poisoning came in a thousand different ways.

For Lieyun people, the royal venomous insect was like a master switch.

Their lives were in the hands of the one who owned them.

At the same time, Madame Jingrou also said that only those with royal blood were qualified to inherit the royal venomous insect.

Otherwise, even those outstanding talents like Xin Li could only get a child venomous insect in the end.

Therefore, if Xiaoyu wanted to successfully ascend the throne and become the Emperor, controlling the royal venomous insect would be a simple and brutal way.

As for how to pacify people in the future, she believed that Wanyan Lie and the others would be more skilled than her.

However, she was even more curious about one thing.

What kind of people were the ancestors of the Lieyun people? How could they be so willing to let their children and grandchildren be subjected to others forever?

“You’re right, Miss. But you’d better not forget to eat and sleep. Take care of yourself.”

Baisu understood all of what Lin Mengya had said and knew how urgent the current situation was.

There were not many things she could do. She could only do her best to take good care of her Miss and do everything the Miss asked her to do.

“Well, I have it in mind. Go and help Qinghu. Don’t worry about me.”

After taking a sip of the hot tea brought over by Baisu, Lin Mengya felt that she had had enough rest. She got up again and returned to the room where she temporarily lived.

There were lots of medicinal herbs placed on the table and on the ground in a certain order.

Among them, there were some extremely rare species, but one thing worth mentioning was that these were all highly poisonous.

If ordinary people were in such a situation, they would have been dizzy. And those who were weak might even have had a slight poisoning phenomenon.

But to Lin Mengya, these things were like flowers and gra.s.s on the roadside.

As she fiddled with the poisonous herbs with her slender hands, Lin Mengya frowned again.

The best time to subdue the royal venomous insect was when it was relaxed and defenseless.

How could she make the poison that even the royal venomous insect couldn’t bear?

A simple pile-up was certainly not enough. It seemed that she had to do research on all kinds of medicinal properties.

While studying, she watched the process of Qinghu’s training on Ningqiu. Time flew by.

After coming out of the first stop, they kept riding for a few days. Although the four of them were all exhausted to some extent, at least they had gained a lot.

Under Qinghu’s guidance, Ningqiu’s n.o.ble and cold temperament became more and more prominent.

In particular, there was a certain expression in her eyes very similar to that of Madame Jingrou.

In fact, Ningqiu had been by the Madam’s side day and night, so she could naturally be influenced by the Madam’s temperament.

But in the past, Ningqiu had always looked up to her. She had never expected that one day, she would have the opportunity to inherit Madam’s former position.

Ten of the fifteen days had pa.s.sed in a hurry.

Today, they finally arrived at the location of the Xin Family’s lair, Yushan County.

As soon as they reached the ground of Yushan County, Lin Mengya and the others clearly felt a difference in the atmosphere.

When they were in the royal city, the commoners were able to live in peace and contentment.

But here, she got a distinct impression that everyone was tense.

Even though the streets were crowded with people, it was not as lively as the royal city outside.

From the moment they entered, many people’s eyes seemed to fall on them.

In order not to arouse other people’s suspicion, they all had changed their outfits. They were completely dressed like the locals.

However, they still drew a lot of attention, which surprised Lin Mengya.

“Little girl, there’s something wrong here.”

In the crowd, Baisu was protecting Ningqiu, and Qinghu naturally stood by Lin Mengya’s side.

Lin Mengya nodded and talked with Qinghu in a low voice.

“I think so. Don’t you think that the people here are a bit too alert and cautious? Even if we are strangers, there is no need to keep an eye on us like this, right?”

Lin Mengya felt the same way as Qinghu did.

So far, she had almost felt the gazes from four or five groups.

Those gazes were either apparent or inapparent, hiding in the crowd.

Although there was no malice in their gazes, it made Lin Mengya a little uneasy.

“Something big must have happened here. I think it must have something to do with the disappearance of people in the Xin Family.”

Qinghu’s long eyes flickered. And he had seen everything around him.

His cold gaze seemed to sweep across a few places casually. Nothing could escape his eyes.

“That’s possible. After all, this is the home of the Xin Family. If something unusual happens here, I’m afraid the Xin Family will be even more frightened. Don’t worry about them. Let’s go.”

Lin Mengya pretended that she hadn’t noticed their surveillance. They headed for the place where they and Xiaoyu had agreed to meet.

Three days ago, Xiaoyu, who made a splash at the Meeting of Venomous Insects, had arrived at Yushan County in advance.

As the winner of the Meeting of Venomous Insects, according to the rules, Xiaoyu had to enter the Pool of Various Venomous Insects and use his own blood to awaken the royal venomous insect.

However, due to the absence of the chosen witch, it was the High Priest of the Xin Family who had cooperated with the other members of the family that barely managed to awaken the royal venomous insect with the help of the royal blood.

Now, everything was ready. And Xiaoyu had to enter the Pool of Various Venomous Insects to completely avoid those people’s sneak attacks.

Ningqiu, the chosen witch, was the key to whether Xiaoyu could successfully enter the Pool of Various Venomous Insects.

The appointed location was an inn that Wanyan Lie had secretly bought in Yushan County.

On the outside, it looked no different from any other inn.

However, the shopkeeper and the shop a.s.sistants were all Wanyan Lie’s trusted subordinates.

Along the way, Xiaoyu had relied on many means to get out of the sneak attacks and reach Yushan County safely.

On the surface, the Xin Family was responsible for guarding the prince here.

But they couldn’t trust anyone except for themselves.

When they saw the inn called Qingling, Lin Mengya and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

“The guests have arrived. Please come in.”

The fellow standing at the door had already seen them.

Immediately, he greeted them respectfully and humbly. Especially when he saw Baisu, his eyes flashed a glint.

“Well, is there anyone waiting for us?”

Baisu was very clear about Wanyan Lie’s style of doing things. If it was not safe here, he would inform them the first time.

She had received a letter from the Young Master yesterday, indicating that everything here was as usual.

“Yes, the honored guest is waiting for you on the second floor,” The fellow lowered his voice and said.

Baisu nodded, exchanged a look with Lin Mengya behind her, and then followed the fellow into the Qingling Inn.

There were not many people inside, and they all looked like ordinary people.

But Lin Mengya was keenly aware that from the moment they entered the door, several lines of sight swept over them like X-rays.

Her body tensed slightly in an instant. Fortunately, they withdrew their sights after a few glances. It seemed that they did not have any malicious intentions.

Lin Mengya’s body gradually eased up.

It seemed that this place was not peaceful. Otherwise, Wanyan Lie would not have arranged so many people to protect them at all times.

They followed the fellow to the second floor and pushed open the innermost door. An extremely elegant and s.p.a.cious room appeared in front of everyone.

A lean figure was sitting beside a brown wooden table.

There was a cup of clear tea in front of him.

“Young Master, they’ve arrived.”

The sound of the fellow had already caught the attention of the person sitting at the table.

The man was dressed in a greenish-grey garment. His greyish-white hair was tied into a bun on his head, and he wore a jade crown of an auspicious beast.

Baisu stepped aside naturally and Lin Mengya stepped forward.

Before she could speak, a tea-scented embrace wrapped tightly around her.

“I miss you so much.”

There was also a hint of joy in the exhaustion.

Looking at the young man who was almost as tall as her and even might be taller than her, Lin Mengya slightly lifted the corners of her mouth.

She carefully smoothed out the wrinkles on the young man’s clothes with her little hands, but in the next second, her little hands pinched the young man’s ears hard.

“Good for you! How dare you hide it from me! I think you don’t know my temper!”
