Chapter 1457: Chapter 1451

"Tsk, didn’t expect this one to be so troublesome."

Xin Lin didn’t expect that even after using Fu Xi’s Energy, the thing inside Prince Yuan’s body still didn’t show up.

She thought for a moment and took something out from the Tuling hairpin.

"Third Sister! What is that thing?! Don’t tell me you plan to put it into Second Brother’s body!"

Tu Suxuan saw that Xin Lin was holding a chubby worm.

His expression changed immediately.

"If it doesn’t go in, the thing inside Second Brother’s body won’t come out."

Xin Lin spread her hands.

"No way. If that thing goes in, will Second Brother still survive?"

Tu Suxuan remembered distinctly.

That thing, wasn’t it the same Corpse Leech that Xin Lin used earlier in the Dragon Ancient Tomb to gnaw on those corpses?

"Big Brother, don’t worry, Second Brother will be fine."

"Still, it won’t do. This thing can gnaw a corpse to the bone, how can Second Brother’s frail body endure it?"

Tu Suxuan was firm, refusing to let Xin Lin release the Corpse Leech.

"Tch~ you ignorant thing, Grandpa Worm isn’t interested in biting."

The Corpse Leech listened and shook its head.

It preferred fresh, clean flesh. Although Prince Yuan had Emperor’s Fortune, there was also Ghost Energy inside him.

It’s obvious that another "little buddy" had set eyes on him.

If it really wanted to enjoy Prince Yuan’s flesh, it would have to clean out those ghost energies first. It’s laborious and unrewarding, the problem is its master wouldn’t allow it to bite this kid.

The Corpse Leech was all but ready to strike.

"Less nonsense. When I tell you to go, you go."

Xin Lin saw the Corpse Leech shaking its head and tail, knowing this guy refused to work.

"Third Sister, you absolutely must not do this."

Tu Suxuan nagged incessantly.

He was heartbroken for his second brother.

"Let it come."

At this moment, the Crown Prince Yuan, lying on the sickbed with his eyes closed, awakened.

He saw Xin Lin and Tu Suxuan and had a faint smile on his pale, sickly face.

After coming down from Haotian Platform, although he saved his life, Prince Yuan felt his whole body was stiff, his limbs heavy as if bearing a thousand pounds.

Tu Suxuan understood well that his body couldn’t hold up much longer.

Before going to Haotian Platform, that sneak attack had almost cost him half his life.

And today’s incident finished off the other half.

The mysterious handsome man, before disappearing, looked at him with endless indifference, an expression as if looking at a dead person. Everything that night looked bizarre, yet incredibly real.

Prince Yuan had a lot to get off his chest, wanting to find someone to open up to.

In the vast city of Wangjing, he felt there was no one he could trust.

In his mind, only the faces of Tu Suxuan and Xin Lin flashed before he collapsed to the ground.

So when he opened his eyes and saw the two, hope for life returned to Prince Yuan’s eyes.

"Second Brother, are you out of your mind? With such a big worm going in, will your internal organs be left intact?"

"Big Brother, the Corpse Leech doesn’t eat organs, it’s a bit picky, it usually only eats Essence Blood."

Xin Lin kindly explained on behalf of the Corpse Leech.

As expected, after hearing this, Tu Suxuan’s face looked even worse.

"I know my own body well, let it try."

Prince Yuan shook his head.

Thinking back carefully, these days, during cultivation, he always felt a lack of energy.

He roughly figured that the Noble Princess Consort Zhu’s siblings, besides arranging that male ghost on Haotian Platform to attack him, had also plotted against him.
