Masquerade in Bridal Attire and Marry the Prince

45. Potential Danger

What he said made sense. If it hadn’t been the case, he wouldn’t have easily fallen into Ashina Yi’s trap last time, and hence there wouldn’t have been so many troubles arising from it.

When they were deep in thinking, Ada came in, “Your Highness, this is news from the capital.” It was carried in a small delicate casket.

Just as Du Chuxuan was turning around to pretend he saw nothing, Yuxing Tianrui put the casket in his hand, “Since my princess isn’t busy. Why don’t you help me check out what it says?”

Hehehe. Du Chuxuan sneered inwardly. This person was certainly used to enjoying service and would take any chance to leech on his labor.

He opened the casket, drew out the note inside, and saw on it beautiful characters of brushing writing, “The vanguards of the Turks are searching for medicines. Be careful.”

Getting the sight of the seal below, Du Chuxuan was slightly surprised, “You have contacts with Doctor Miracle?” In Shenglan, there were two best doctors, one was Herb King, and the other Doctor Miracle.

However, Herb King was a solitary living in his Valley of Herb King all year round which was on tight guard with layers of hidden gears and weapons. Nobody could get in at all.

Doctor Miracle had mystery routes because no one knew exactly where he was. Some said that even if he sat right in front of you, you wouldn’t know that. He might be a grey-haired elder, or a lame man, or even a young gentle scholar. Anyway, you wouldn’t say he was Doctor Miracle.

Yuxing Tianrui snorted and took over the note in a tsundere manner, “You also know the poison, but do you know how to make the cure?” He intended to test out Du Chuxuan’s true ability so that he asked to what extent he knew about the poison.

Du Chuxuan was rendered speechless. He was interested in the effects of various poisons because he had learned about these while reading the anecdotes for fun. However, he wasn’t interested in memorizing how to make cures at all.

It was fair to say he himself was a rarity once in a million years, because he knew the usages of nearly all kinds of poisons, but he didn’t know how to make them. He could tell what the poison was at a glance, but he didn’t know how to make the cure. In this way, he had learned a half of everything and became a man good-for-nothing.

He shrugged, “I only know what kind of poison he had. As for others, I have no idea at all.” He wasn’t trying to hide it, but back in the mountains, the old man forced him to read all sorts of things every day, nagging that they would be helpful someday.

However, what he had shown him?! Porn pictures! He even doubted that the old man was somewhat a pervert who was keen on imaging others doing it since he himself was too old for it.

Yuxing Tianrui gave Du Chuxuan a suspicious look, obviously not believing in what he said, and turned to Ada, “Tell him that he can do whatever to do with it. I won’t step in, but he must promise that Ashina Yi will go to the capital alive with me!”

Others would definitely laugh at Yuxing Tianrui for being so simple-minded. That man was the second prince of the Turks. How was it possible that he went to the capital with him? Yet, Du Chuxuan was clear that this little smiling fox must have figured out a way to lead the foolish husky into a cage and take it back.

His poor stupid sect-brother who was making his way into the cage! Why didn’t he just enjoy his life being a prince? And this stupid sect-brother had never invited him to have some fun?!

A strangely dressed person in a place in Shenglan territory far away from the barracks suddenly looked up, “Things are veering away!” He calculated on his fingers and was shocked, “Since when did my foolish disciple fix his fatal tragedy?”

The realization surprised him. At once, he forgot about the drumstick in his hand and ran in another direction, bumping into many of the passers-by.

Just as everyone cried complaint, he suddenly rose into the air and quickly disappeared after getting on the roofs.

“Mom, did I see a hero just now?” A child couldn’t help but ask, his voice crisp and innocent.

His mother was startled and hurriedly took him into her arms, “You saw nothing. Don’t talk nonsense.”

The novels depicted Wulin (the underworld of cultivation) in an interesting way, but ordinary people only wanted a peaceful life. It’d be better to stay away from the cultivators.

Du Chuxuan knew none of this. Even if he did, he couldn’t greet his cheap shifu face to face. Now he was lying leisurely on the bed and when he heard Dongxiang pacing anxiously outside, he couldn’t help but say impatiently, “Why are you being so worried? He just goes there to check out.”

The so-called Doctor Miracle insisted to know Ashina Yi’s situation and Yuxing Tianrui immediately left after reading the note that doctor had sent over. Du Chuxuan wondered what was the relationship between him and Yuxing Tianrui. However, he, the wife, didn’t say anything yet, and Dongxiang began to worry first.

Du Chuxuan wasn’t aware that he was somehow being jealous. He lay on the bed and smacked his lips. With nothing delicious in the mouth, he wasn’t in a wonderful mood.

“Don’t you worry, Your Highness? Ada just recovered and isn’t in his best state to protect His Highness. What if His Highness…before he approaches the second prince of the Turks? …”

Before he finished, a pillow flew over to knock his head blank. Instantly, Dongxiang understood he shouldn’t have said that. He turned to look at Du Chuxuan, finding she was sitting on the bed with a cold face and chill all over her body.

Du Chuxuan was usually nice, but now, was obviously angry. Therefore, Dongxiang didn’t dare to say more.

Du Chuxuan narrowed his eyes, not paying attention to Dongxiang who was fidgeting, because he sensed that a powerful cultivator had just passed this tent.

His martial cultivation wasn’t very high, at least not higher than Ashina Yi. Nonetheless, he was able to instinctively sense potential dangers. This cultivator was very powerful, even at a similar level with his cheap shifu. Hence, it was very suspicious that such a person suddenly appeared in the barracks of Shenglan Army.

He knew more than well that he shouldn’t alarm the cultivator. Du Chuxuan took a glance at the nervous Dongxiang, “Go and change the incense here. I’d like one with strong fragrance..
