Chapter 882

As Xin Mu had said so, Xiaoyu naturally couldn’t lose his temper anymore.

However, he was obviously a little unhappy with his face slightly gloomy, which made the atmosphere a little awkward.

Watching this, Lin Mengya sneered in her heart.

The Xin Family had put it mildly. The Pool of Various Venomous Insects was very important. They were doing it for the sake of the safety of the pool.

In fact, they just regarded this place as the private property of the Xin Family.

In that case, don’t blame the royal family for smashing them.

A normal man might get into trouble because of his wealth, not to mention an ambitious and capable family like the Xin Family.

According to Xin Mu’s introduction, it would take some time to reach the entrance of the Pool of Various Venomous Insects from the foot of the mountain.

However, Lin Mengya’s radar frequently sent out warnings since she entered the courtyard.

The kinds of poison here were beyond Lin Mengya’s imagination. There were even some kinds of poison that didn’t record in the music score for green stringed instrument. She could only use the Shen Nung system to analyze the type of poison.

Every blade of grass and every tree was poisonous. Even the air and soil would not be spared.

Was such a big mountain actually a poisonous mountain?

Fortunately, Xin Mu handed everyone a pill for detoxification before going up the mountain.

Therefore, even if there was a faint smell of poison in the air, these people would not be knocked out by these poisons.

“Ninth Prince, be careful. This is the only entrance to the pool, so it is also full of poison. However, our Xin Family has been guarding the pool for many years, so it’s not a big deal for us.”

Xin Mu explained in a friendly way while leading the way in front of them.

Looking around, except for a winding path that could allow two people to pass at a time, the other places were all full of intertwined plants.

Besides, Lin Mengya also smelled some herbs on the roadside for repelling venomous insects and poisonous snakes.

If it weren’t for these things, this path would be full of danger.

She couldn’t help but be amazed. She was wondering whether the Pool of Various Venomous Insects was a marvelous masterpiece of nature or mankind.

But it was still a magnificent and mysterious place no matter how.

There were fewer and fewer people on the road. Meanwhile, the number of guards around them who were doing the so-called protection but were actually monitoring had tapered off.

Later, every once in a while, a guard stopped on the road.

The higher the mountain was, the more poisonous the air became.

Except for her, who was not affected at all, the others had taken pills several times on the spot.

Even Xin Mu didn’t seem to be that relaxed.

Lin Mengya tried her best to hide behind Ningqiu, so as not to let others see anything unusual.

If others knew that she didn’t care about these poisons, it would be troublesome.

Fortunately, the dull walking didn’t last long.

After walking for about a few miles on the mountain road, they finally saw the edge of the Pool of Various Venomous Insects.

Standing on the top of the mountain, Lin Mengya looked at everything in front of her and was a little shocked.

They thought that this was the highest place of the pool, but when they reached the top of the mountain, they found that actually it was the lowest one in the surrounding mountains.

The name of the Pool of Various Venomous Insects was just perfect. Looking down from the top of the mountain, the surrounding mountains and low piedmont were just like a huge mountain pool.

However, because of this kind of landscape, more and more poisonous creatures gathered in the middle.

It was still daytime, but the Pool of Various Venomous Insects was already surrounded by blue and purple chaos, which made it hard for people to see clearly.

Lin Mengya frowned slightly. In fact, she had already anticipated the current situation before she came.

If it weren’t for her blood, they would have no choice but to be at the mercy of others.

“Unexpected! So here is the Pool of Various Venomous Insects.”

Even the air was filled with poisonous fog that could make people bleed immediately.

However, the heart venomous insect in Wanyan Yu’s body was extremely excited.

These toxins could be regarded as great tonics for it.

After exchanging a look with his sister, Wanyan Yu sighed sincerely.

“That’s right. This is Lieyun’s sacred land, the Pool of Various Venomous Insects. The royal venomous insect is inside. As long as it’s here, Lieyun will be the strongest empire among the four kingdoms. No one can match it!”

Lin Mengya really wanted to laugh when she heard Xin Mu say something like that.

Although Xin Mu was so proud, it was because what he saw was only the Xin Family and Lieyun.

But in the four kingdoms, Lieyun people were actually at a disadvantage.

If there was no natural barrier to protect them, the Lieyun people who were under the control of the venomous insects could be the first group of people to be destroyed and enslaved in the four countries.

One had to know that there was no limit to the creation of human beings.

For now, people couldn’t find a way to control the so-called royal venomous insect. But what about five years later? Or even ten years later?

Once the royal venomous insect was controlled by others, the entire Lieyun would be at the mercy of them.

If they still could not realize this problem, perhaps Lieyun would only become a subsidiary of the other three countries in the near future.

Therefore, Lin Mengya was clearer about the significance of Xiaoyu to Lieyun Empire than anyone else.

“Since the royal venomous insect is in the pool, I’m wondering when we can set off for the place where the royal venomous insect is.”

Xiaoyu said casually, but Xin Mu’s face changed instantly.

The Ninth Prince had mentioned it several times in public and in private, but he just ignored it in the end.

Now they were already at the edge of the Pool of Various Venomous Insects, and the royal venomous insect in the pool had reached the last moment that they had to feed it.

Even if he didn’t want to answer, he had to.

“Actually... Actually, it doesn’t have to trouble Your Highness to handle this matter. You’ve seen the pool. It’s extremely dangerous, and your identity is precious. If you’re careless, it’ll be hard to ensure your safety. We can’t afford the consequences.”

Wanyan Yu sneered in his heart, but there was only a look of doubt on his face.

“Since that’s the case, what do you think we should do, uncle?”

Xin Mu weighed his words for the fear that he might say something wrong and provoke this young master.

There was an apologetic smile on his face, but he put his eyes on Ningqiu who had been silent for a long time.

“I’m afraid I have to ask Miss Ningqiu for help. But don’t worry, Your Highness. We will ensure her safety, and we won’t do her the slightest harm.”

These words were really shameless.

Lin Mengya and Xiaoyu looked at each other. Now they finally got the Xin Family’s plan.

They took a fancy to the connection between Ningqiu and the Icy Jade Venomous Cicada, but they didn’t want Xiaoyu to get involved in this matter.

That was why he had used such a high-sounding excuse.

He was indeed a person who could do great things. If he needed to be shameless, he would be shameless, and he would pretend to be righteous as well.

Upon hearing Xin Mu’s answer, Wanyan Yu no longer kept a good expression at him.

His face darkened with a kind of glitter in his eyes. He was no longer the young man who had been indulged in luxury enjoyment these days.

“Uncle, you’re really a good schemer. The chosen witch died in my mother’s generation. Do you want my sister to replace her now? If my sister can’t become the chosen witch, I’m afraid you will say that those who achieve great things don’t care about trifles. It’s not a big deal to sacrifice a person. If she succeeds, what reason do you intend to use to keep her? Is it my mother’s apology or my sister’s contribution to the whole Lieyun?”

Even though Xin Mu was cheeky, he still felt a little embarrassed when he heard such harsh words.

He was very powerful in the Xin Family. How could he have suffered from such blame?

His expression also became stern immediately. But because of Xiaoyu’s identity, he did not dare to offend him at all.

“Your Highness, please forgive us. We don’t mean that. But it’s really difficult to move a single step inside. Your Highness, you’ve also seen that the venomous insects we saw in the house that day were just resting in the forest we just passed through. If we go inside, I really can’t predict what will happen. Your Highness, you must not take the risk to do anything.”

Speaking of this, Wanyan Yu understood that if he couldn’t take out his trump card, the Xin Family would be the cornered beast that might do something desperate.

Wanyan Yu lifted the corners of his mouth and a cold smile appeared on his handsome face.

He took out something from his arms and gave it to Xin Mu.

The latter just looked at it in a hurry, and his face immediately turned a little pale.

All of a sudden, his expression became extremely complicated. When he looked at Wanyan Yu again, his eyes glittered with anxiety.

“You’re my uncle. That’s why I’ve been suppressing this, and I didn’t ask my father to punish you. Besides, I’m just going inside of it to have a look. If there’s really an accident, it has nothing to do with the Xin Family. I’ve already told my father about it, so don’t worry, uncle.”

With the help of both kindness and majesty, Wanyan Yu, who had just startled Xin Mu, now began to say some soft words.

Xin Mu was also stunned for a moment. He held the letter firmly in his hand, but his face trembled and twitched slightly.

“This matter... this matter is of great importance. I’m afraid I can’t make the decision alone. Please wait for a while, Your Highness. We’ll discuss it as soon as possible.”

Wanyan Yu was still a little dissatisfied, but Xin Mu was right. He wasn’t the one to make the decision, so he had to give up.

.

“Your Highness, Lord Xin, if there is nothing else, our lady should go back.”

The atmosphere was a little stiff, and Xin Mu also forgot the purpose of bringing Ningqiu here.

So, Lin Mengya said softly, and everyone’s eyes fell on Ningqiu.

“Are you tired, sister?”

In front of outsiders, Xiaoyu naturally was a good brother who cared about his sister all the time.

Ningqiu shook her head gently and said nothing.

Xin Mu also seemed to suddenly remember something. After wiping off the non-existent sweat on his forehead, he turned to Ningqiu.

“Actually, the reason why I invited your lady here this time is to let everyone see the craft of the Pool of Various Venomous Insects firstly. Secondly, I hope that Miss Ningqiu can help the Xin Family. Of course, if you agree, the Xin Family will definitely repay you.”

The main event finally came. Ningqiu looked at Wanyan Yu. Her face didn’t change at all after hearing Xin Mu’s promise.

“My words don’t count for anything, so I may not be able to help you, Mr. Xin. Please find someone else.”
