Crossing the World: This Prince is a Little Sweet

Chapter 331 Fighting Fire with Fire

At the moment Xue Ye was about to stab Ying Yi with his sword, Yan Jingshuo quickly stepped forward to stop him and then attacked.

"Your opponent is me"

Yan Jingshuo's voice was cold and his moves were extremely fast. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was in a bad mood and would easily lose his mind once Chu Xi's affairs were touched upon.

"Master, you can't be so mean."

Xue Ye quickly fended off Yan Jingshuo's attack while speaking with a frown.

"I only agreed to exchange one hand for the other for the person, but I didn't say I would let you go."

Yan Jingshuo took out the soft sword from his waist, intending to have a real fight with him.

The two men fought back and forth in mid-air above the palace. The sound of swords clashing was endless, and soon attracted everyone's attention.

"princess"

Chu Xi walked out of the inner hall, and Ying Yi and others hurried to protect her.

"What's going on now?"

Chu Xi looked at the two people fighting in mid-air and began to worry about Yan Jingshuo's safety.

"This...I can't say for sure."

Seeing this situation, Ying Yi didn't dare to give a definite answer, because he felt that the black-clothed man's martial arts level was very high, and he couldn't last more than a few moves against him.

The two people fighting in mid-air were so fast that it was hard to see their moves. Xue Ye became more and more excited as the fight went on. He hadn't met an opponent who was on par with him for a long time. He couldn't help but admire the youngsters and felt that they were formidable.

"Boy, your martial arts are pretty good."

"Old man, you shouldn't touch my people."

what?

old man?

Xue Ye was choked by his words and almost lost control of the sword in his hand.

"Did you misunderstand? I only wanted the worm, not your person."

"Leave your life here, and I will trust you."

As soon as these words came out, Xue Ye knew that this guy was determined to fight him to the death and had no intention of letting him go easily, so he increased the speed of his attack.

Of course Yan Jingshuo was no pushover, he countered his opponent's moves. Xue Ye felt that it was not a good idea to continue fighting like this, he could only fight him to a draw now, if he attracted Yi Yue Haotian, that would be a real problem.

So he took advantage of Yan Jingshuo's unpreparedness, took out a packet of medicine powder given to him by Sikong Shu from his arms, and sprinkled it directly at Yan Jingshuo.

Seeing this, Yan Jingshuo quickly covered his mouth and nose. When the powder dissipated, there was no trace of Xue Ye.

Yi Yue Haotian rushed over after hearing the noise, but he could not see the assassin anywhere.

"Boy, are you okay?"

Yi Yue Haotian stood beside Yan Jingshuo, looked around, and then asked.

"fine"

After Yan Jingshuo uttered two words, he patted off the excess powder on his body and walked towards Chu Xi, but he fainted before he took two steps. Yi Yue hurriedly reached out to support him.

"Your Majesty..."

Seeing this, Chu Xi ran towards him anxiously.

In Yanyue Palace, Huang Jing, who was lying on the bed, had his breathing becoming more and more rapid, his chest heaving violently, and he began to spit out large mouthfuls of blood. The situation was extremely critical.

"Oh my god, he vomited so much blood again, what should I do?"

Ye Qian felt panicky when he saw the spittoon full of blood. There was also blood all over the bed.

"Looking at her condition, I don't think she can make it."

Sikong Shu stood beside the bed with her arms folded across her chest, shaking her head and sighing helplessly.

Ye Qian became even more anxious when she heard this. She turned to Sikong Shu and said urgently, "Sikong Shu, aren't you from a medical family? You know a lot about poisons, so there must be a way to save her, right?"

"I know a lot about poison, but this kind of insect poison is the first time I've seen it. And I don't know what kind of insect bit her, so it's hard to judge."

Sikong Shu shrugged helplessly, with an expression of helplessness.

"What should I do?"

"What can we do? Let's see if Xue Ye can catch the bug first."

As soon as Sikong Shu finished speaking, Xue Ye appeared in the room.

When Ye Qian saw him coming back, he immediately stood up and asked him, "How is it? Did you catch the bug?"

Xue Ye shook his head helplessly and said in a low voice: "No"

"No? Really?"

Seeing Xue Ye shaking his head again, Ye Qian was stunned where he stood. If he didn't catch the poisonous insect, the prince would be dead.

"That little girl is very cunning, and with so many experts protecting her, it's normal that she hasn't been caught."

Sikong Shu raised her eyebrows slightly, feeling that this was expected.

"Without insect gall, can we just watch the prince die?"

Ye Qian's eyes turned dim, and his face was filled with despair.

Xue Ye looked at Huang Jing lying on the bed without saying a word, but turned to face Sikong Shu.

"You can save her, right?"

"Yes, there is a way, but I can't guarantee that I can really save her."

When Sikong Shu saw Xue Ye looking at her like this, her heart softened inexplicably.

"Save her, please..."

Xue Ye looked at Sikong Shu with pleading eyes and just stared at her steadily.

"Okay, since you've asked me, I'll give it a try. After all, she's my mother-in-law, I can't just stand by and watch her die."

As Sikong Shu spoke, she took a hairpin from her bun, twisted it and a pill fell out of it. She then picked up the pill and stuffed it into Huang Jing's mouth.

After a moment, Huang Jing, who had just been vomiting blood, began to breathe slowly and steadily. He no longer vomited blood, and his face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Okay? Do you have the antidote?" Ye Qian's eyes revealed surprise, and she asked Sikong Shu happily.

"No, it's poison."

Sikong Shu raised her eyebrows calmly. That was her latest developed Wandu Pill.

"What did you say? It's poison and you gave it to her?"

Ye Qian's expression changed instantly, and he pulled Sikong Shu by the collar and questioned her.

"Haha...are you kidding me? If there is an antidote, why wouldn't I have taken it out earlier? Besides, I have always only developed poisons, not antidotes."

Sikong Shu pulled Ye Qian's hand away and explained with a smile.

"you……"

Ye Qian was choked by her words and didn't know how to react for a moment.

"Then what do you mean by poisoning him again?"

"Fighting poison with poison, now we can only treat a dead horse as a living one."

Sikong Shu's tone was cold and her attitude was very indifferent.

"Is this... okay?"

"Let's see if she can make it through tonight. If she can, then there won't be any major problems."

"What if you can't make it? What will happen?"

"If you can't make it, then you can only hang up the white silk and eat Xi Luo together."

"Are you speaking human language, you witch? After all, the prince once saved your life, so why are you so cruel and want to kill her?"

Seeing that Sikong Shu always acted as if it was unimportant, Ye Qian got furious and immediately pointed at Sikong Shu's nose and started cursing.

"What do you mean by ruthless? It's better to say that I have a heart of a snake and a scorpion. If I want her to die, I can just wait for her to die. Why would I waste such a precious poison pill? I spent half a year to make it, and there is only one in the world."

Sikong Shu rolled her beautiful eyes and pouted her lips as she spoke innocently to Xue Ye.

If Xue Ye hadn't begged her, she really wouldn't have bothered to save him. The favor from more than ten years ago was written off when Huang Jing asked her for poison again and again, and she had done a lot of things for Huang Jing over the years.
