The Evil Emperor's Favorite: The Sickly and Poisonous Concubine Goes Crazy

"Miss, An Xia is here." Yun Ya brought An Xia, whose wounds were bandaged, to find Su Jingning.

"Hello, young lady." An Xia bowed to Su Jingning.

"No need to be so polite. How is your injury?" Su Jingning hurriedly helped An Xia up and asked in a gentle voice.

"It's just a minor injury, nothing serious. I'm sorry to bother you about me, how is the Second Young Master?" Thinking of Su Jingmo who had been in a coma for several days, An Xia asked.

"It's okay. Second brother was poisoned by a poisonous insect, but now he has recovered and will wake up tomorrow. This time, it's all thanks to you for saving him." Su Jingning said with gratitude in his eyes

"Miss, you are too kind. It's just that An Xia was incompetent and failed to find the Crown Prince and the Fourth Young Master." An Xia lowered her head slightly, looking apologetic.

Su Jingning shook his head and said to An Xia with a smile: "It happened suddenly. You have done a good job. Now you should heal your wounds first."

"By the way, the matter that the young lady had instructed An Xia to do before has been solved. As the young lady said, I have found out that Laoshan County is indeed privately casting counterfeit silver and arms. In Cuiyin Mountain, 50 miles west of Laoshan County, there are always people in Laoshan County and nearby counties who have disappeared inexplicably. In fact, they were secretly brought into the mountains to work as laborers to privately cast counterfeit silver and arms for them. However, there are heavy troops guarding the area, and I haven't had time to go into the mountains to investigate. I will leave the valley tomorrow and sneak into the mountains, and I will definitely be able to find out clearly!"

An Xia told Su Jingning that she was going to leave the valley and return to Laoshan tomorrow to get to the bottom of the matter as soon as possible.

Su Jingning glanced at her left shoulder, which was slightly lower than her right shoulder because of the injury.

"You can't leave the valley until your injury is healed. Leave this matter to me, and you should heal your injury first." Su Jingning's voice was clear and gentle, but it left no room for doubt.

"But....\"

"Okay, Yun Ya, watch over her and let her recover from her injuries first." Su Jingning instructed Yun Ya.

"Yes"

On the other side, Ye Ling hurriedly followed his attendant A Shi out of the yard.

"Valley Master, that man has fainted, but he still refuses to confess."

"Haha, he's really a tough guy. He can still hold on after being in the water dungeon for so many days. Let's go and take a look." After Ye Ling left Su Jingning's yard, he immediately returned to his cold and ruthless appearance.

The water prison in the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons.

A damp and unpleasant smell hit me in the face. The cell was dark and cold, and the sound of water could be heard from time to time.

At the end of the cell, a cell was locked with a black iron chain and was strictly guarded. The dungeon was built in the water, and there were special checkpoints at the water inlet. Every hour, the water would submerge the prisoners in the cell for half an incense stick of time. Although they would not drown, they would suffer from choking and suffocation, which was extremely painful.

There was a man in the cell, his messy hair covered half of his face, but one could still see his handsome features. He was soaked in water, his hands were tied to a black iron pillar behind him, unable to move, and his face was pale because he had been in the cold water for a long time.

When the prison guard saw Ye Ling coming, he immediately saluted her.

"Valley Master."

Ye Ling looked at the unconscious man in the cell with surprise in his eyes.

"Open the door."

Hearing the noise, the man slowly opened his eyes and looked towards the prison door. A beautiful woman wearing a fiery red gilded gauze skirt walked in. They called her the Valley Master. In this Eastern Territory, there was only one person who had such outstanding martial arts and such a beautiful appearance - the Valley Master of the Ten Thousand Poison Valley, Ye Ling.

He was really unlucky, escaping into the hands of such a female devil. He was Su Jingning's fourth brother, Su Jingyi, who was being hunted by the Nether Guards and whose whereabouts were unknown, and whose life or death was uncertain.

"I heard that you still don't have any tricks?" Ye Ling stared at his beautiful phoenix eyes, his voice cold and charming, with murderous intent in his eyes.

After hearing this, Su Jingyi sneered. It is said that Ye Ling, the master of the Ten Thousand Poison Valley, is moody, suspicious by nature, and cruel. He has seen this in the past few days. This woman is really a demon. If it were an ordinary person, he would have been tortured to death by her water prison. Fortunately, the means he used to interrogate his enemies in the Su family were much more cruel than this, and this water prison really couldn't hurt him.

"I've already said that I just walked into your place by mistake. Why is Lord Yegu forcing me like this?"

Ye Ling's eyes were filled with murderous intent. He smiled and brushed his eyelids with his fingertips, saying sharply, "Really? Do you know where you broke into? That's the sacred place of my Ten Thousand Poison Valley. Not only did you enter the valley unscathed, you also broke into my clan's sacred place. You almost killed my clan's Holy Gu. How can you make me believe that you broke in by mistake?"

Her Holy Land of Ten Thousand Poison Valley has been passed down for hundreds of years and houses the Holy Gu. Only the elders of her clan are allowed to enter. But this man not only broke the poisonous fog she had spread outside the valley, but also entered the holy land unscathed. When she found him, she saw him about to attack the Holy Gu!

"Tell me! Who are you? What are your intentions in entering my Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons?" Ye Ling suddenly lifted Su Jingyi out of the water prison, grabbed his neck hard, and asked.

Su Jingyi was strangled to the point of being unable to breathe, but he kept shaking his head and said nothing. How could he know what kind of broken holy Gu that fat white insect was? If he knew, he would never even look at it!

Seeing that he still refused to confess, Ye Ling became furious and wanted to strangle him to death, using force with his hands.

"Valley Master, Miss Seventh came to ask you when you will be done with your work. She is waiting for you to have dinner together." A maid came hurriedly and interrupted Ye Ling.

Ye Ling frowned, paused, loosened his grip, and let go of Su Jingyi.

"I am in a good mood today, so I will spare your life for now."

Ye Ling took the handkerchief handed to him by Ah Shi, wiped his hands, and spoke coldly to Su Jingyi.

Then turned and left.

Su Jingyi watched her leave, his eyes darkening slightly. He had to get out today. His elder and second brothers risked their lives to send him out. He couldn't be trapped here any longer!

"There is a flaw in the poisonous fog outside your valley! That's why I accidentally broke in! I didn't know that was your clan's holy land, and I didn't even think about killing any holy Gu!"

Ye Ling paused and turned to look at him.

Seeing her stop, Su Jingyi continued, "Let me out of the valley, and I will patch up the flaw for you!"

The poisonous miasma outside the Wan Du Valley was spread by the Wan Du Valley tribesmen for generations. It was originally to prevent enemies and protect the safety of the people. But later, when the world was stable, the people who had been protected by them hated their tribesmen who practiced poison and witchcraft. The ancestors of the Wan Du Valley took the tribesmen into the mountains, spread poisonous miasma, isolated themselves from the world, and rarely allowed outsiders to enter the valley.

The poison miasma was not formed congenitally, and each generation of valley masters needed to repair it on time. However, the previous generation of valley masters had problems repairing it, which caused the poison miasma to be unstable, with toxicity sometimes weak and sometimes strong, and it was out of control. Sometimes it would even spread outward and hurt outsiders.

Ye Ling laughed softly, looking at him. This man didn't look like an ordinary person. He had a lot of skills. Not only did he understand poison theory, but he could also break the fog outside her valley. His martial arts skills were also acceptable. Could it be that he really got in by mistake?

"Repair it for me? Do you think I will believe you?" Ye Ling looked at him with amusement, his eyes scrutinizing.

"You can." Su Jingyi looked straight at Ye Ling, his expression full of confidence.

"Oh?" Ye Ling raised his eyebrows and looked down at him. He motioned for him to continue.

"Because you can't repair it, right? Lord Yegu? Otherwise, I would have no chance to break into the valley."

Ye Ling had no way to repair it. She had never found the source of the uncontrollable poisonous fog. So, over the years, she had tried many times but had never been able to repair the poisonous fog.

"Really? But you are the first person who can break into my Ten Thousand Poison Valley." Ye Ling will not let another person break into the valley alive.

“So, I have the ability to repair the flaw in the poisonous fog for the Valley Master! Please rest assured, I will leave the valley immediately after the repair, and no third outsider will know about this.” Su Jingyi said with a firm look.

Ye Ling stared at him and hesitated for a while.

"Remember what you said now. If you dare to lie to me, I will make you live a life worse than death!" After a long time, her cold and eerie voice rang out in the gloomy cell.

After saying that, she stopped looking at him and turned around and walked out quickly, leaving only one sentence:

"Ashi, take him out of the water dungeon, assign someone to watch him at all times, and bring him to see me tomorrow."
