Chapter 1470 “The Sneaky Di Ling Yan (4)”
“I like to ask, is it me poisoning her more serious or her eating a child more serious?” Cocking her chin high, Di Ling Yan shoots back with strength in her voice.
This time, even Keeper Ling was speechless because he had no rebuttal against that logic. Although he mouthed off about the good of this world and such, but the demon princess was still just a child, that’s a fact and he couldn’t deny it.
“Even so, she can’t poison Ruo Xi.” The old grumpy Keeper continues to preach his side’s logic like a stubborn old fool.
The fault lies with the Celestial Palace, Ruo Xi did no wrong. We were the ones who forced into it, isn’t that right?
“Princess, did you use poison like he claims?” First Elder asks with a hint of confusion in his voice due to not making head or tails of the whole story.
This time, Di Ling Yan didn’t deny the case and confirmed it with a nod: “Yes, I secretly took a poison while they weren’t paying attention. Then she drank my blood so it’s natural that she got poisoned too.”
The elder’s face promptly turned a ghostly white: “What poison did you eat? How could you take such a risk Your Highness? What if something happens... How are we supposed to tell your mother the queen?”
“Don’t worry First Elder, I have an antidote.” Without hesitation or delay, the baby girl quickly took out a bottle containing said pill and tossed it into her mouth.
Keeper Ling wanted to rob the item as his first instinct of course, but it’s too late by the time he wanted to move. Showing an irate expression as he spoke: “Do you have more? Hurry and hand it over if you do!”
In the Celestial Palace, the strongest alchemist would be Healer Yu; however, the guy hates Ruo Xi to death right now, there’s no way he would offer a cure even if they asked.
“No, I don’t anymore,” said the baby with a slight giggle, “Mother only gave me one and I’ve eaten it. By the way, this antidote will only work after a month’s wait. During this period, my blood will always carry the poison so you people can forget about touching me.”
Unlike her older brother, Di Ling Yan only had two years to her life, meaning she’s not immune to all sorts of poisons out there. At most she’s only slightly resistant to the effects.
A visible tremor shook Keeper Ling’s body over that answer. He couldn’t accept the fact that someone like he would be cheated by a simple child. That’s equivalent to someone slapping him and making him lose face.
“Hoho, I don’t believe there is no antidote on you. Hand it over this instant and I’ll forgive you for what you’ve done!”
It’s then, a snickering sneer cuts in from above and catches everyone’s attention.
“Forgive? On what basis do you have to say that word after all you’ve done?”
Standing in the open sky was a woman donning a dress purer and whiter than a drifting snowflake, surreal and mesmerizing. However, the indifferent glare in those eyes seems more threatening than a ferocious beast ready to pounce at her prey.
Di Ling Yan was the first to react to the new entry, especially when she recognized that incredibly similar face to her own mother’s. “Grandmother, you are back!”
......
Bai Ning initially fell into a pause over the way she was addressed, but those eyes soon turned to eagerness as she stared downwards at that cute cuddly face that’s also staring upwards.
