"Mistress, take your time to eat. There's also Imperial Concubine Xiao's bird's nest. You must remember to eat it." Wen Xing stood to one side, reminding her.

Every month around the fifteenth day, Xiao Ling'er would ask He Cai Cai to bring Cen Xue a bird's nest stew every day. She had been bedridden for a long time, and there weren't many treasures in the palace, but when it came to supplements, it was her, Yu Chun Palace's, that had the most. The king often sent people to deliver them, and Xiao Boyi had good things he often brought her to the palace.

Cen Xue nodded and opened the stew. As expected, it was very fragrant. The bird's nest stewed in Yu Chun Palace was especially fragrant.

"The High Priest has arrived …" Before she had even drunk two mouthfuls, Little An shouted at the top of her lungs.

"What do you want to eat? "So fragrant?" Dan Yu Wu looked at the stew in front of her and jokingly asked.

"Yu Wu, you're here. Imperial Concubine Xiao sent you a bird's nest. Do you want to have a taste of it?" As Cen Xue spoke, she prepared to let Wen Xing flourish.

"No need. If I want to eat, I can ask the Yu Chun Palace. I don't believe that Ling'er won't cook for me!" Stop the work in Wen Xing's hands and let her go down first.

Yiyu Wu did not come here for no reason. Cen Xue knew that she must have something to say to her as she stared at her with her large, watery eyes, waiting for her to speak.

"Cen Xue, do you remember what you told me last time? And the blood pool and your background? " In fact, Yiyu Wu remembered what she said and looked through a lot of ancient books as she hadn't been idling during this period.

Hearing this, Cen Xue suddenly became a hundred times more spirited. She nodded and said, "I remember, could it be that you've found the answer?"

"I can't say. I just found something fishy!" The secret of the Sacred Moon Sect was only known to Sect Leaders and Elders. Even as a High Priest of Lou Lan Country, she was not qualified to know that secret.

"Then quickly tell me …" Cen Xue couldn't wait any longer.

She really wanted to know what secrets were hidden within that pool of blood. How did she end up falling into this strange Easton Continent during that disaster?

"First of all, I am certain that you have some sort of inextricable relationship with the Sacred Moon Sect. If not, that blood pool will not accept you, because the blood pool is very spiritual, and it will be able to discover many secrets that we do not know. Perhaps this is all from your past life. I seem to have forgotten to tell you that when we first met, I accidentally felt a very powerful force protecting you, but as for what it is, I am temporarily unable to answer you. However, the fact that you were able to come here from another dimension means that you are related to this place, especially to the Sacred Moon Sect! "

What do I have to do with the Church of Sheng Yue? Could it be that I was their Holy Maiden in my previous life?

As Cen Xue mumbled to herself, she suddenly recalled the scene when she fell into the blood pool and lost consciousness …

"Yu Wu, there's one more thing. At that time, I was in a state of chaos, and I couldn't differentiate between reality and dreams. However, in that situation, I saw a glowing box!" Even though she didn't know whether what she saw was real or fake, she still told her.

"A box? Why was there a box at the bottom of the blood pool? "It seems that Sheng Yue Sect really has hidden many secrets …" Dan Yu thought as she replied.

Cen Xue nodded her head in agreement. That place gave her a feeling that it was very mysterious. One look was enough to tell that there were many stories about it.

"It's useless for us to ponder over it here. If Elder Mu Yue can tell us that secret …" Cen Xue boldly replied.

"Stop daydreaming. Only the Holy Maiden and the four elders know about the matters of the Sacred Moon Sect. Even the King may not have the qualifications."

Hearing Yu Wu's words, she could only give up. However, due to the occupational disease, she still had to be curious for a while, but, no matter what relationship she had with the Sacred Moon Sect, no matter which blood pool she was truly from, she wouldn't become Holy Maiden of the Sacred Moon Sect.

The two chatted nonchalantly until Helian Lie returned to his palace, Dan Yu Wu, and Cen Xue's heart was filled with questions about these matters. Even after following him into the underground palace tonight, she still appeared absent-minded.

Helian Shan had asked her many times, and she had only replied that it was a secret between women and that men should not ask.

Since she had already said so, how could He Lianlian shamelessly go and ask …

With the experience from last time, when Helian Lie was about to fall ill, he pressed down on Cen Xue's sleeping point, causing her to fall into a comatose state. Once again, her arm was bitten open …

Blood slowly flowed from his mouth into his body. After receiving the blood as an offering, Helian Lie's body quickly returned to normal.

This is the last time, the last time...

Undoing his acupoints and looking at Cen Xue's pale face, Helian Shan felt an incomparable pain in his heart. After bandaging the wound and gently kissing it, it was only nine days before the Witch Doctor came back. Very soon, he would be back to normal!

Thinking of this, Helian Lie tightened his grip on Cen Xue's arm. There were still nine days until the return of the Witch Doctor Kessel nine days later …

In the darkness, Cen Xue fainted from excessive blood loss. Helian Lie did not sleep the entire night as he quietly guarded her and waited for the arrival of dawn.

Two days later, as per usual, He Cai brought the sugar bird's nest over. Wen Xing carried the bird's nest into her room. Seeing that her master was still resting, she didn't dare disturb her, so she put down her things and quickly left.

"She Cai, I'll need you to come over every day for the next few days. It's been hard on you, but my master has instructed you to bring these pastries back." Outside the door, Wen Xing brought a plate of pastries to She Cai.

"It's Horseshoe Cake and Red Bean Cake. They are the favorite pastries of our Young Master Xiao. Then, I won't be polite. Thank you Imperial Concubine!" After a round of thanks, She Cai carried the pastries back to Yu Chun Palace.

The sound of voices outside the door disturbed Cen Xue, who was sleeping soundly. She was the only one in the large bedroom, and she was probably the only one in the entire palace who only woke up at this hour.

It seemed that She Cai had sent the nest over again. Coincidentally, she was also a bit hungry, so after resting for two days, she was able to recover some of her strength. She slowly got off the bed and sat at the table, lifting the lid, a warm and sweet fragrance wafting into her nose.

Although she wasn't particularly fond of sweets, her body needed them now, so she could only make up for it every day.

There were also medlar seeds and red dates and round lotus seeds in the swallow nest. They were all high-grade Blood Replenishing fruits. Ling'er was truly considerate.

"Mistress, you're awake." Mingyue just happened to bring in the water for washing up, and saw that she was already sitting at the Eight Immortals Dining Table.

"Oh yeah, did you get He Cai to bring the pastries back?" She knew that Xiao Ling'er liked the Horseshoe Cake and the Red Bean Cake, so she told Wen Xing to remember to ask the imperial kitchens to prepare them in the morning and to send them over as soon as possible.

"Don't worry, Mistress. He Cai has just brought the pastries back." Mingyue walked behind her and straightened her hair. After lying down for two days, her long hair had lost its original luster.

Cen Xue nodded her head in satisfaction as she picked up the spoon and placed it in her mouth, stuffing it into the bird's nest …

Suddenly … Cen Xue felt waves of intense pain in her chest. Her hand that was holding the spoon also stopped in mid-air. Her hand suddenly loosened and the spoon fell to the ground soundlessly, attracting Mingyue's attention.

"Mistress, what's wrong?" Brightmoon immediately supported Cen Xue and shouted anxiously.

At the same time, Wen Qing and Wen Xing, who were standing outside the door, heard Mingyue's anxious shout and immediately rushed into the dorm room.

Cen Xue's face, which had recovered its color, had turned pale. Her left hand gripped her clothes tightly as her eyes widened. The moment they entered the room, she spat out a mouthful of blood and fell backwards into Brightmoon's embrace.

"Master …"

He Lianlian, who had just left the imperial study, was preparing to go and review today's imperial reports when he met little An Zi running frantically to his side. He knelt down and anxiously said with moist eyes, "Your Majesty …. Your Majesty, the imperial concubine vomited blood and fainted in the palace! "

"What?" How could this be? " Helian Shan could not believe what he had just heard.

"Imperial Concubine just got up and drank a few mouthfuls of the bird's nest that Imperial Concubine Xiao sent over. Not long later, she spat out a mouthful of blood and an accident occurred!" Little An quickly and clearly reported the general situation to the king.

Ling'er? That's impossible!

Helian Shan quickly rushed towards Xing Qing Palace, even using his Qing Gong to quickly return to her side. Just as he entered, a few imperial doctors were already there to treat him. When they saw that the king had come up, they all immediately knelt down: "This old official pays his respects to the king."

"Save it, hurry up and save Imperial Concubine. If Imperial Concubine has any mishaps, I'll take your lives!" Helian Shan's face was ashen. As he looked at the pale-faced person on the bed, his heart felt like it was about to pinch.

"Understood …"

More and more imperial physicians gathered at Xing Qing Palace. Helian Lie sat by the side and stared unwaveringly at Cen Xue's pale face.

When Dan Yu Wu returned early in the morning, she heard that Cen Xue had been poisoned and vomited blood. She also left for Xing Qing Palace. Xiao Boyi and Yuwen Tuo went to Yu Chun Palace as soon as they heard that Xiao Ling'Er had poisoned her.

An hour passed, and the imperial physicians shook their heads one by one. The head doctor of the Grand Hospital fearfully walked up to Helian Shan. In an instant, everyone in the room kneeled down.

"Wang... Your Majesty, there is nothing that can be done to redeem the old ministers. The old voice trembled uneasily. He had already anticipated what would happen to him.

Poisonous? Damn it, how could there be such a thing in the palace?

Using its feathers to immerse it in the wine would make the wine become the poison of the world. The poison was very toxic, almost irredeemable, and this method of poisoning was often used in the martial arts world to kill people and make them disappear, but rarely was it used in the palace.

Helian Lie walked to the bedside and looked at Cen Xue's pale and unconscious appearance. There was still a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth; it must have been left behind when he had vomited blood.

"Your Majesty, this old official will use a silver needle to temporarily suppress the poison within the Imperial Concubine's body, so as to prevent the poison from spreading. This old official will delay Imperial Concubine for a few more days." The old imperial physician knelt on the ground and added.

At this moment, Dan Yu Wu finally rushed back. As soon as she entered the room, she saw that the room was full of people kneeling down. They were looking at Helian Shan who was sitting in front of the bed, and her expression didn't look any better.
