Ye Lingyue had not yet answered when Feng Xun’s eyes suddenly turned cold.
"Cong Lv, if you ca for this matter, you can leave now."
"Feng Xun, Yue Marquis, please listen to . I know what Pian Ran has done, which angers people, but she was just blinded for a mont."
Cong Lv stood up anxiously.
After Xue Pianran was imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison, she was like a madwoman, constantly cursing and swearing, railing that Ye Lingyue frad her and cursing Ye Lingyue to et a dire fate.
But who would actually listen to such nonsense?
After all, everyone already believed that it was just Xue Pianran reaping what she sowed.
Eventually, soone from the Dan Palace entered the Heavenly Prison, even Chen Hongru was alard and went to inspect Xue Pianran’s injuries.
Despite efforts through a morning and a whole night, the toxicity from the lted Gold Water on Xue Pianran’s face, far from being alleviated, was actually worsening.
Even Chen Hongru and Alchemist Wei and others were at a loss.
However, Xue Pianran kept insisting that all this was caused by Ye Lingyue, and that Ye Lingyue must have an antidote.
Although Cong Lv didn’t believe Xue Pianran’s words, thinking of Feng Xun’s Cold Syndro, which was said to have been alleviated quite a bit by Ye Lingyue, he braced himself and sought her out.
"Guard Cong, look at my face," Ye Lingyue did not imdiately commit to a stance but rely lifted her eyelids and spoke indifferently.
Confused, Cong Lv stared at Ye Lingyue for a few seconds.
"Yue Marquis, what do you an by this?"
"Do I have the words ’easy mark’ written on my face? That woman wanted to ruin my face and ended up getting her retribution. Would I be foolish enough to save her?" Ye Lingyue scoffed.
Xue Pianran’s face being incurable was sothing she had anticipated early on.
As for the specific reason, it was because she had added so Ice Frost Dew refined from Ice Crystal Grass to the lted Gold Water.
Even Xuantie, which could corrode, could not contend with Ice Frost Dew mixed with lted Gold Water, leaving even the unparalleled Dan Palace at a loss.
Ye Lingyue was never a lenient person; for soone like Xue Pianran, even killing her with a single stroke would be considered too light.
lted Gold Water could only lt flesh, but Ice Frost Dew could slowly corrode even the bones and internal organs.
Without her treatnt, Xue Pianran’s fate would be a hundred tis worse than death.
"Yue Marquis, please forgive her. Pian Ran, she just loves Feng Xun too much. Feng Xun, you..." Cong Lv had not finished speaking when he suddenly fell silent, all because Feng Xun gave him a cold glance.
That glance, icy to the core, chilled Cong Lv to the bone in an instant.
Feng Xun had never had such a look before, and Cong Lv knew that after this, he and Feng Xun would no longer be friends.
"Cong Lv, her love, I neither desire nor care for," said Feng Xun.
"Cong Lv, out of consideration for Feng Xun, I can go to the Heavenly Prison for a look. However, when I’m treating the patient, I don’t like to be disturbed, and I particularly dislike it when soone curses under their breath in front of , so you know what to do," said Ye Lingyue with a tone that seed to settle the matter, appearing as if she was doing this for Feng Xun’s sake.
Relieved as if granted amnesty, Cong Lv dare not think further and hurried back to pass on the ssage.
But within half an hour, Cong Lv, carrying a token, ca to fetch Ye Lingyue to the Heavenly Prison.
"Shall I accompany you?" Feng Xun asked sowhat worriedly.
"No need. If you have spare ti, help by spending more ti with Earth Venerate; she seems to quite like you," Ye Lingyue blinked and left gracefully.
Stunned, Feng Xun wondered, Earth Venerate likes him?
"What’s this sly woman up to?"
Ye Lingyue followed Cong Lv into the Heavenly Prison.
Though Xue Pianran had made a grave mistake, she was ultimately the Dan Palace Heavenly Maiden. Just by observing the standards of the Heavenly Prison she was housed in, Ye Lingyue could tell that the Dan Palace had put considerable effort into it.
At the entrance of the Heavenly Prison, Ye Lingyue saw Chen Hongru with a gloomy expression.
"Yue Marquis, truly what a cunning move."
Chen Hongru had not attended the palace banquet, but that didn’t an he was unaware of everything.
Xue Pianran was soone he had painstakingly nurtured over many years.
And now, Ye Lingyue had not only ruined Xue Pianran’s reputation but also destroyed her looks.
Chen Hongru, who always called the shots in Beiqing, had never felt so suffocated.
"Master Hong Ru, what are you saying? I can’t hear you clearly; could you speak up?" Ye Lingyue feigned innocence.
Chen Hongru was so angered that his chest heaved violently.
"You know best what you’ve done. The Chaos Heaven and Earth Array, was it you who stole it!"
"Master Hong Ru, I don’t understand what you’re talking about. Please move aside, any further delay in treatnt and the Dan Palace might need to select a new Heavenly Maiden," Ye Lingyue said with a beauty that belied her cunning.
Chen Hongru wished he could kill her with a slap, but rembering the plight of Xue Pianran, he could only swallow his anger and step aside.
"Ye Lingyue, I warn you, you better cure Pian Ran properly. Otherwise, if anything happens to her, not just you as a re Marquis, even Daxia might suffer."
Chen Hongru’s words made Ye Lingyue pause.
What did he an by that?
Xue Pianran was just a Heavenly Maiden of the Dan Palace.
Without the Heavenly Maiden, it would at most take ten years to nurture another.
From Chen Hongru’s implication, could it be that Xue Pianran’s identity was not just that of a simple Dan Palace Heavenly Maiden?
Despite the doubts, Ye Lingyue didn’t dwell on it too much and proceeded to a cell.
Xue Pianran was detained inside, and following Ye Lingyue’s earlier instructions, Cong Lv had already cleared the nearby cells and set up a Prohibition, isolating the sound inside and outside the cell.
To prevent Xue Pianran from injuring herself or Ye Lingyue in agitation, Cong Lv had no choice but to chain her up.
Hearing the sound of the cell door opening, Xue Pianran glared at Ye Lingyue with resentnt.
"Bitch, you dare to co? I wish I could eat your flesh and scoop out your heart."
"Heavenly Maiden, don’t be so angry. If you knew today would co, why did you do what you did initially? I’m here because of Feng Xun," Ye Lingyue shrugged and walked up to Xue Pianran.
Xue Pianran’s face, after one night and a morning, was already a terrible sight to behold, to call it ugly would be an understatent.
It’s hard for Cong Lv who is still so infatuated, running around for her sake.
Ye Lingyue shook her head and sighed, why is it that behind every bad woman, there is a good man getting hurt?
"Feng Xun, Feng Xun sent you? I knew, Feng Xun wouldn’t abandon ." Hearing the na of her beloved, Xue Pianran beca agitated and yanked at the chains in her hands.
"Don’t misunderstand, Feng Xun sent because he told that you have the Nirvana Heart Lotus. I can save you, but in exchange, you must give the Nirvana Heart Lotus." Ye Lingyue was worried about how to obtain the Nirvana Heart Lotus for Earth Venerate’s treatnt, but Xue Pianran’s injury provided her a perfect opportunity.
