Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Saint Ruan placed one hand on his waist and casually flicked a strand of his white hair. “I’m just worried that you, a young girl, will suffer a humiliating defeat. I finally found something entertaining, and 1 wanted to keep you around for a few more years, but it seems like you’re seeking death.”
“It’s not certain who’s courting death, but if you’re not up for it, I won’t force you.” Su Yingxue held her red jade soft whip, her eyes filled with disdain for Saint Ruan.
There were two expressions that Saint Ruan despised the most in his life. One was indifference.
For instance, the indifference displayed by Chu Yihan, who, despite provoking a strong desire to confront him, refrained from doing so.
The other was disdain!
Just like the look on Su Yingxue’s face right now.
It reminded him of the way a woman had looked at him many years ago.
“Su Yingxue, 1 will compete with you. Don’t worry, 1 will certainly develop a poison that will make you wish for death!” After saying this, Saint Ruan left without leaving a trace.
Su Yingxue narrowed her eyes. “Then let’s see who ends up victorious!”
“Hey, this person has a strong presence of poison, and he’s even older than your grandfather. Do you want to compete with him in poison? Are you ready to give up your life, as well as mine?” In Su Yingxue’s mind, Little Ginseng pouted with a cute angry expression.
“Don’t worry, I’m not looking to die young.”
Su Yingxue closed the door and entered the Medicine King Valley.
She had set up a study room for herself and, after organizing her mother’s belongings, she took out a book from the bookshelf. In it, her mother had written hasty notes about Saint Ruan.
Her mother was someone who couldn’t sit still. Whenever she had spare time, she would delve into various medicinal topics and people associated with medicine.
This included Saint Ruan, and her records contained information about Saint Ruan’s fiancee.
There was also one type of poison that he had failed to develop throughout his life, Intoxicating Fragrance.
In the Fengzao Palace, after receiving the news, Liu Fu hurried into the palace and knelt in front of the Empress. “Your Majesty, our people have returned with information!”
The empress, who had worn a troubled expression for a long time, immediately perked up. “Speak!”
“Su Yingxue and Saint Ruan met in secret. It’s said that the two of them intend to engage in a poison duel!” Liu Fu reported.
“A poison duel?” The Empress’s gaze suddenly turned sharp, and her teeth ground together. “Su Yingxue, you’re underestimating yourself. You’re seeking your death!” contemporary romance
“Your Majesty, Saint Ruan is a renowned poison doctor, and no one dares to provoke him. If Su Yingxue competes with him in poison, she’ll undoubtedly meet her end at his hands. Your Majesty can finally vent your anger!” Liu Fu fawned, grinning.
Ever since Chu Xiuwen was dispatched to guard the Imperial Mausoleum, the empress had been wearing a troubled expression and had kept a close watch on Su Yingxue every day.
Now that she had received this news, she was naturally elated.
However, the empress narrowed her eyes. “No! Su Yingxue is crafty. 1 want to watch her die! Watch her struggle desperately in front of everyone in Saint Ruan’s presence, unable to escape death. Only this kind of torment would befit my son!”
Her beloved Chu Xiuwen, the core of her heart!
His life was destroyed by Su Yingxue!
How could she swallow this humiliation?
“Your Majesty is brilliant!” Liu Fu smiled obsequiously.
Chu Chengye was paying his respects in the palace when he heard his mother’s words. His heart sank..
