Chapter 2367 - 664: An Yiqing Displays Her Power, Detoxification (Part 7)
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, what are your thoughts about the poisoning of your clansmen?"
Old Prince Bruch’s lips curled into a helpless smile, "Xiao Qing Beauty, I know what you’re thinking, and I also cannot be certain if she was the one who did the poisoning this time. After all, she left more than a hundred years ago. For so many years, I’ve been trying to find her whereabouts, even the Church wasn’t spared from my inquiries. However, there has been no trace of her. At one point, I even thought, could she have died in some corner of the world."
He truly loved that woman; it took a lot of effort to marry her back then. At that time, she was just an ordinary human. After they fell in love, he tried his best to make her accept his identity and worked hard to gain the approval of the family. Then, with her consent, he turned her into a member of the Blood Clan like himself. Originally, he thought they would live together for many years. Who would have known that after giving birth to Eddie, she would disappear without a trace.
It was only then he realized that everything had been a lie. From when they met, fell in love, to when she became a member of the Blood Clan, it was all part of her carefully laid plan. But, the Old Prince couldn’t figure it out. Why did she go to such lengths to become a member of the Blood Clan, to poison her own child? Was it to make him suffer his whole life?
For so many years, the Old Prince was engulfed in pain. He also once hated her, but he wanted even more to ask her, did you have any sincerity at all? Such a small child, how could you bear to poison him?!
With a deep sigh, Old Prince Bruch pulled himself out of his memories. He picked up the teacup and slowly drank the tea in one gulp, its bitterness filling his mouth, much like his feelings over the years.
"I’m sorry, Xiao Qing Beauty. I just lost my composure."
An Yiqing shook her head, "Love is the most hurtful of all emotions, I understand. But Your Royal Highness, whether or not Eddie’s mother is still alive, I think you should investigate how many Church allies are within the Blood Clan."
"I understand, I am already working on it."
"That’s good." An Yiqing nodded, "That’s the first thing. There’s also a second thing, which is a request of mine. Your Royal Highness, you have many connections in Country Zi, and I would like to ask you for a favor." She took out a piece of Jade Spirit, "This is the Jade Spirit, I assume you’ve seen it before. In addition to attending the World Business Association this time, I have another purpose for coming to Country Zi, which is to search for top-grade purple and blue Jade Spirits. They are very important to me, and I hope Your Royal Highness can help me by finding out more about them."
Old Prince Bruch nodded without hesitation, "It’s a small matter, I’ll send someone to look for them tomorrow. If they’re found, I’ll inform you immediately."
An Yiqing smiled, "Since that’s the case, then I shall eagerly await the good news."
...
Afterward, An Yiqing spent two days to concoct the antidote for the poison affecting the members of the Bruch family. Actually, if a human ingested this poison, she could just use the Silver Needle to help them awaken. But the Blood Clan doesn’t have acupoints, so she had no choice but to spend time and effort to make an antidote suitable for them.
Once the poisoned members of the Bruch family took the antidote, they quickly awakened. Old Prince Bruch was overjoyed and praised An Yiqing’s medical arts immensely. Even the Great Elder couldn’t solve the poison, but An Yiqing managed to, which was proof of her skill!
"Xiao Qing Beauty, you are simply amazing! Even the Great Elder had no way, yet you managed to neutralize their poison in just two days! My heavens, it’s miraculous! Those fools from the Church would never have imagined we have such a brilliant asset like Xiao Qing Beauty!" Old Prince Bruch lavishly praised her, making An Yiqing laugh lightly.
"It’s just a small trick, Your Royal Highness, no need for such praise." She casually waved her hand, modestly.
However, Old Prince Bruch didn’t see it that way, smiling at An Yiqing, "Xiao Qing Beauty, our Great Elder has heard about your exceptional skills in medical and poison arts and wishes to meet you personally. What do you think?"
An Yiqing raised an eyebrow. She had heard Gu Yelin mention the Bruch family’s Great Elder. The Bruch family had two elders, the Great Elder was immersed in medical and poison arts, while the Second Elder was focused on cultivation. One focused on arts and the other on martial skills, making them the unassailable pillars of the Bruch family.
The Great Elder’s purpose for meeting her is undoubtedly to discuss medical and poison arts.
A thousand-year-old demon is sure to have some good stuff, and An Yiqing naturally wouldn’t miss this opportunity.
"Alright! Then after the association ends, I’ll come to uncover the mysteries with the Great Elder!"
