Chapter 51 Your Highness, please don’t...

Jun Jiuchen wasn't suffering from cold sickness, but from the cold poison.

This was the biggest secret in his life, the hot spring medicinal bath was only to dispel the cold and protect his life. Even though he had to endure the bitter and bone-piercing coldness time and time again, he did not want to be cured.

Jun Jiuchen didn't take the ore in Gu Feiyan's hand. He held her hand for a moment, then suddenly used his remaining strength to ruthlessly pull her into his arms.

"Your Highness Prince Jing!"

Gu Feiyan could not figure out the situation and was stunned.

Jun Jiuchen should've acted immediately, but he stopped for a moment. Just as he was about to attack, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine, and his entire body couldn't help but tremble.

How could this be?

Even if the medicinal bath failed, he was confident that he would be able to survive the cold.

He had never been so cold. At this very moment, he couldn't help but tremble. He desperately wanted warmth.

Gu Feiyan was also very surprised, "Your Highness, what happened to you?!"

Gu Feiyan had been soaking in the medicinal spring for a long time. Her whole body was warm, especially her palms. This was a fatal temptation to Jun Jiuchen at this moment! Even though he tried his best to maintain his rationality, he still lost it in the end. Instinctively, he hugged Gu Feiyan tightly to keep him warm!

Gu Feiyan's entire body went stiff, "Your Highness, please don't … … Let me go. Just hold it a bit longer, the effects of the Scarlet Flame Medicinal Ore has come out."

While she was panicking, she could completely feel the coldness of his body. It was as if his body was constantly emitting cold air. Being embraced by him was like being surrounded by cold air! She had to admit that she couldn't take it anymore.

Instead of letting her go, Jun Jiuchen put his hand on Gu Feiyan’s waist and hugged her tighter, as if he wanted to bury her whole body in his arms and absorb all the heat from her body.

"Your Highness, let go."

"Your Highness …"

As soon as Gu Feiyan panicked, she started to struggle, but Jun Jiuchen didn't have much strength left. As soon as Gu Feiyan pushed him, he hit the side of the pool and couldn't stand properly. Soon, his whole body started to sink.

"Your Highness!"

Gu Feiyan hurried over to help him up, but Jun Jiuchen instinctively hugged her as soon as she got close. This time, Gu Feiyan did not dare to struggle. She realized that something was wrong and resisted the coldness with great difficulty.

The effects of the hot spring medicinal bath had basically recovered. Logically speaking, His Highness Prince Jing's condition should have started to improve. However, his current situation was obviously worsening!

This meant that the hot spring medicinal bath was no longer effective against his illness! Either he had been soaking in the same kind of medicinal bath for a long time, and his body had developed resistance to it, or his condition had changed and the hot spring medicinal bath could no longer treat him.

Whatever the reason, it was very bad!

What should she do?

This "cold disease" was too strange. Even if she knew the prescription, Gu Feiyan could only conclude that it was used to expel the cold. She was unable to infer anything else.

In this case, the physician was absolutely required to determine whether the prescription was effective.

Gu Feiyan was anxious. She was about to call Mang Zhong and Xia Xiaoman over, but then she stopped herself.

He might not make it in time to find an imperial physician at this time.

Moreover, in this sort of situation, the only thing the imperial physician could do was change the prescription. The Scarlet Flame Medicinal Ore, when paired with ordinary medicinal ingredients, already had an extremely high effect of dispelling the cold. If this kind of medicine could not cure him, other ordinary medicinal ingredients would be useless. It is necessary to add another medicinal ore.

At this critical juncture, where could she find another medicinal ore? Even if she could find it, she could not use it immediately. Two different types of ores required a single ingredient, otherwise, it would be ineffective. Moreover, this medicinal catalyst was usually even more difficult to find than the medicinal ore!

With regards to the safety of Prince Jing, Gu Feiyan did not dare to take the risk. She thought for a moment. There was only one way to do.

At this time, Jun Jiuchen began to tremble again. Even though he was immersed in the hot spring medicinal bath, his body was ice-cold. The cold energy exuding from his entire body was somewhat difficult for even Gu Feiyan to withstand.

Gu Feiyan made a decision on the spot. She held onto the small medicine cauldron and gently rubbed it a few times, summoning the Medicine King's divine flame. Even in the water, the small cauldron gradually grew bigger, and a formless divine flame began to burn within the cauldron.

Gu Feiyan had contracted with the little cauldron not long ago, so she didn't know much about it yet, and she had yet to start cultivating. At most, she could only summon out a third grade of the Medicine King's Divine Flame.

She had used the first grade Divine Flame to warm her body. It was definitely useless against His Highness Prince Jing. She also did not know if the second or third grade was useful. In a situation where she had no other options, she could only give it a try.

As the divine flame burned, the little medicinal cauldron slowly began to heat up. Only then did Gu Feiyan pull Jun Jiuchen's hand away, allowing him to hold the little medicinal cauldron with both hands. Jun Jiuchen clearly wasn't aware of this, but he was very picky. He clearly liked the temperature of Gu Feiyan's body, so he immediately let go of the small medicine cauldron and hugged her again.

Gu Feiyan was somewhat dumbfounded. She once again pulled his hand over, held it down, and then hurriedly summoned out a second grade Divine Flame. As the Divine Flame continued to heat up, the little cauldron grew in size.

There was no doubt that Jun Jiuchen liked the temperature of a second grade Divine Flame, so he didn't loosen his grip. After waiting for a moment, Gu Feiyan felt the cold aura around him decreasing, but his body was still as cold as before.

Gu Feiyan panicked as she hurriedly summoned her third grade Divine Flame. If even a third grade Divine Flame couldn't help Prince Jing to expel the cold energy from his body, she didn't know what to do.

Using her consciousness to control the small medicine cauldron was not an easy task.

It took quite a bit of effort for Gu Feiyan to summon out the third grade Divine Flame. Once the third grade Divine Flame came out, the small medicine cauldron continued to grow bigger, and the formless flame in the furnace also gradually became more vigorous.

Even though she was holding the cauldron over Jun Jiuchen’s hand, Gu Feiyan was unable to stand the heat. She could only let go of her hand and anxiously wait. Fortunately, this fire was warm enough for Jun Jiuchen! Gu Feiyan could clearly feel that the cold energy in his body was gradually disappearing, and his body was also gradually warming up.

Gu Feiyan's heart, which had been anxious finally relaxed.

If anything happened to this master of hers, she didn't even dare to imagine what the consequences would be.

Jun Jiuchen's body was warming up, but his strength was gradually disappearing. He leaned on her back, his two hands around her waist as he held the small Cauldron. His entire body gradually pressed down on her back, burying his head into her shoulder.

Xia Xiaoman and Mang Zhong had returned. The two of them did not know what was going on in the water. From their point of view, they could see that Prince Jing' back was facing them, and he was holding Gu Feiyan tightly in his arms. Their faces were very close together, and they seemed to be whispering something.

Xia Xiaoman and Mang Zhong halted their steps at almost the same time. Both of them were stunned!

His Highness, this is … Had he recovered?

Gu Feiyan was really capable!

Just to say, why did Gu Feiyan go into the water? Did she go down by herself, or was she pulled down by His Highness?

From this point of view, no matter how you looked at it, it was His Highness who was holding Gu Feiyan, not Gu Feiyan who was holding His Highness! Even if His Highness was currently very weak, as long as he was unwilling, he could call for his secret guards at any time.

Therefore, His Highness was the one who took the initiative!

However, this woman was Qi Yu’s fiancée. And there were also rumors of her with Cheng Yifei, so His Highness couldn’t go so far as to do that! There’s no reason!

Why?

After a long discussion, Mang Zhong finally muttered to himself, "I knew it! I knew it! His Highness is different to her, His Highness likes her! "

Xia Xiaoman didn't want to believe it, but he couldn't refute it either…
