Inside the Golden Dragon Palace, First Princess Cheng Sheng-nan asked Emperor Cheng, "Father, something happened at the Du household and the Protector King passed away. Should we do something about it?"
"Ah … the Protector King had his reasons for what happened back then. On one hand, it was for the Du household, and on the other hand, it was for the entire empire. Those powerful enemies were strong enough to raze the empire to the ground with a wave of their hand. That's why I've been trying to strengthen the empire all these years, and that's why I want you to go to the Divine Light Court."
Emperor Cheng sighed softly. He looked at First Princess Cheng Sheng-nan and said, "The Protector King saved Du Qiang with his own life, and also left a favor for the Du family in the stone city. He thought about the long term. Indeed, the older the ginger, the spicier it is. The Protector King's actions are also admirable. Spread the word that the entire empire will mourn and hold a state funeral. You will also represent me and go to the Du household to pay respects to the Protector King. "
"I understand. Don't worry, Father." First Princess Cheng Sheng-nan nodded.
"By the way, something seems to be wrong with the North Vanquishing King. The poison on his body may have worsened. You will also go and take a look for me. If the Xie household needs anything, except for that matter, do it at all costs. We just lost a Protector King, we can't lose the North Vanquishing King as well. Any Protector King is a pillar of the entire Stone Dragon Empire." Emperor Cheng said.
"Yes, I will arrange it." First Princess Cheng Sheng-nan nodded again.
"You've been back for a long time. When will you return to the Divine Light Court?" Emperor Cheng looked at Cheng Sheng-nan again and asked.
Cheng Sheng-nan's eyes flickered, and a purple-robed figure appeared in her mind. She then said, "I will return to the Divine Light Court in a few days. It will also be good for me to inquire about the situation in the sect."
… … …
"Tsk tsk!"
Three days later, in the courtyard of the bamboo forest, Du Shaofu, who was sitting cross-legged, withdrew his hand seal, and the light golden halo of Xuan Qi around him retracted into his body, revealing his pale face.
The consumption of three days was too much for Du Shaofu to bear. The consumption of Xuan Qi to help North Vanquishing North Vanquishing Ice Dragon's cold poison in his body was too shocking. Du Shaofu was almost exhausted.
However, the effect was better than he had imagined, which made Du Shaofu feel a little relieved. Fortunately, most of the cold poison accumulated in North Vanquishing Prince's body had been removed. However, the cold poison had attacked North Vanquishing Prince's heart and had already corroded his internal organs and bone marrow. It was not easy to completely remove it.
Zhen Qingchun's illusory figure floated into the room. He said to Du Shaofu, "It should be about time. You've done your best. The rest is up to him and the will of the heavens."
"Okay!"
Du Shaofu nodded at Zhen Qingchun. Looking at North Vanquishing Prince, who was currently wrapped in a layer of faint golden light, Du Shaofu's sharp Mental Energy probed him. He felt that everything about North Vanquishing Prince seemed to be developing in a good direction, and he let out a sigh of relief.
Whether or not North Vanquishing Ice Dragon could completely remove the cold poison in his body would depend on how much Roc blood he could absorb to expel the cold poison.
If everything went well, North Vanquishing Prince would be able to successfully detoxify the cold poison in his body. At that time, he would naturally be able to recover to his original state.
… … …
"North Vanquishing Prince will be fine. The Brave God King will definitely have a way to remove the cold poison in his body."
Outside the courtyard of the bamboo forest, a woman dressed in an orange-red outfit stood quietly. She had a pair of slender and tall legs, a slim waist that could not be grasped with one hand, and the curves in front of her chest outlined a graceful and exquisite arc.
"I hope so …"
A charming woman said softly. She was slightly older than the woman in the outfit. Her waist was slim and her skin was smooth. She didn't wear any makeup and her lips weren't red. However, her brows were tightly knitted at this moment.
The two ladies were Princess Cheng Sheng-nan and Xie Fei. At this moment, there were many experts from Prince Xie's Mansion outside the courtyard. They were guarding nervously and didn't dare to disturb the situation in the room.
Creak …
While everyone was nervous, the courtyard door creaked open. A young man carrying a purple broadsword on his back walked out slowly. His face was extremely pale.
"How's Grandpa?" Xie Fei went up to Du Shaofu and asked immediately. The surrounding people from Prince Xie's Mansion were also filled with anticipation.
"There should be an 80% chance. The rest will depend on Grandpa Xie and Heaven's Will. Don't let anyone disturb him," Du Shaofu said to Xie Fei.
"80% chance."
Xie Fei's knitted brows relaxed a little. She looked at Du Shaofu and said, "Thank you."
When the surrounding people from Prince Xie's Mansion heard this, their nervous expressions relaxed a little.
"No need to thank me. Don't forget that I'm also half a Xie's. Grandpa Xie said that." Du Shaofu looked at the charming woman in front of him and smiled faintly.
Xie Fei smiled and didn't say anything else. No one knew what she was thinking. Suddenly, her cheeks blushed a little.
"I didn't expect you to have such ability. If North Vanquishing Prince recovers, you will have done a great deed for the empire."
The eldest princess, Cheng Shengnan, stepped forward. Her tall and fiery figure made it hard for people to shift their gazes away from her. She passed an extraordinary medicinal pill to Du Shaofu and said, "You seem to have consumed a lot of energy. Quickly consume this pill."
"Thank you." Du Shaofu took the pill and put it in his mouth.
"What do you plan to do next?" Cheng Sheng-nan asked Du Shaofu.
"I want to go back to Stone City." Du Shaofu was worried about his uncle's injury. If it wasn't for North Vanquishing Prince's cold poison, he would have already left for Stone City.
"When are you leaving?" Xie Fei heard this and immediately asked.
"I can't help Grandpa Xie with his cold poison anymore. So, I plan to leave now." Du Shaofu said to Xie Fei.
"Back to Stone City …"
The First Princess Cheng Shengnan suddenly looked at Du Shaofu. Her bright eyes slightly moved, revealing a trace of surprise. She waved her hand and her red lips gently opened: "I also want to go to Stone City."
"You're going too?" Du Shaofu and Xie Fei heard this and showed a puzzled expression.
"That's right. Since I don't have much to do recently, I want to go to Stone City and see what the place where you grew up is like."
Princess Cheng Sheng-nan smiled like a beautiful rose blooming on her cheeks. She seemed to have made up her mind. She looked at Du Shaofu with a hint of warning and said, "Brave King, you won't not take me, right?"
"Stone City is only a small place. I'm just afraid that you won't be used to it." Du Shaofu frowned and said.
Cheng Sheng-nan lowered her slightly raised eyelashes and her tall figure walked in front of Du Shaofu. Suddenly, she leaned over to Du Shaofu's ear. A delicate fragrance filled the air. Her red lips slightly opened as she whispered to Du Shaofu, "If you don't take me there, I won't let you off for what happened in the hot spring. You can do as you deem fit."
Du Shaofu heard this and was stunned. He looked at the tall girl who was almost as tall as him and said, "You said that we'll forget about it and won't pursue it anymore?"
"When did I say that? I don't remember." Cheng Sheng-nan sneered.
Du Shaofu stared at Cheng Sheng-nan for a moment. He took a deep breath and said helplessly, "Then go back and pack up. We'll leave later."
Cheng Sheng-nan moved in front of Xie Fei and said, "Sister Fei, please send someone to the palace and tell them that I'm going to Stone City with the Brave God King. Tell my father that he doesn't need to worry."
"This …"
Xie Fei's delicate face slightly froze. She stood there and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it."
After saying that, Xie Fei looked at the eldest princess Cheng Shengnan and the purple-robed young man in front of her. Her eyes flickered with light and disappeared as soon as she finished her sentence. Xie Fei's heart skipped a beat.
"I think you must be thinking of leaving when I return to the palace. With the speed of that black demon tiger, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up even if I want to, right?" Cheng Sheng-nan slightly raised her head and looked at Du Shaofu with a faint smile on her face. She seemed very proud.
"Sometimes, it's not good for a woman to be too smart."
Du Shaofu helplessly stared at First Princess Cheng Sheng-nan. That was exactly what he was thinking. He didn't expect Cheng Sheng-nan to directly expose him. After saying that, he nodded at Xie Fei and left the bamboo forest.
Cheng Sheng-nan caught up to Du Shaofu and followed him closely. She was afraid that Du Shaofu would leave her behind, so she asked, "Who said that it's not good for a woman to be smart?"
"A servant in my family said that smart women are always worrisome." Du Shaofu said.
"Don't worry, I'm only going to Stone City to take a look. I won't cause you any trouble." Cheng Sheng-nan said.
….
In the Courage God Mansion, after Du Shaofu handed the mansion over to Phantom, he brought Second Uncle Du Zhixiong, Big Sister Du Xiaoman, Du Xiaoqing, and Du Xiaoyao to the Little Tiger's back to Stone City. Of course, First Princess Cheng Sheng-nan was following closely behind.
As for Second Brother Du Yunlong, he was receiving the inheritance from the Old Protector King, so it was naturally inconvenient for him to travel.
Ouyang Shuang saw that First Princess Cheng Sheng-nan wanted to go with them, but she didn't seem to want to go either. Thus, Du Shaofu asked Ouyang Shuang to take care of Second Brother Du Yunlong. He was worried about First Uncle's situation, so he quickly left.
Ouyang Shuang's eyes moved slightly as she watched the purple-robed young man on Little Tiger's back and the eldest princess Cheng Shengnan leave. She then looked at the white clouds in the sky and smiled bitterly.
On the black tiger, when Du Zhixiong found out about First Princess Cheng Sheng-nan's identity, he was also very surprised. He looked at Du Shaofu and First Princess with a strange expression in his eyes.
