Imperial Treasure

Crown Prince Yan fell into lengthy silence.

Then he said.

"What difference does it make telling you? You can’t kill me or save her."

However...

Crown Prince Yan once more turned his face, a piece of scorched skin fell off as he turned, and that eye was tinged with black.

"I can kill myself."

What!

Sui Yi and Gu Sansi were both stunned, then they saw that the man’s heart was burning with a tiny black flame, a flame had no heat, instead it was cold, sinister, and aggressive, burning from inside out, destroying flesh and blood as they turned into black ash inch by inch.

Sui Yi was about to step forward to stop him.

Crown Prince Yan suddenly said: "High Priest, if it weren’t for you, I would be the rightful emperor, and she would be mine to marry...at least she wouldn’t wander through pain for nine thousand years, if it weren’t for you..."

He paused for a moment, then Crown Prince Yan’s mouth curled into a smile that made Sui Yi’s brow furrow.

"But I, Crown Prince Yan, did sit on the throne of an emperor after all..."

"Also, do you want to know whose black blood this is?"

The black flame eventually turned into a dreadful blazing black fire.

Leaving behind Crown Prince Yan’s chilling and cunning voice.

"Demon"

Black ash scattered with the wind, gently spilling everywhere, the ruins had long been leveled, leaving behind only a black elixir orb.

Du Meng picked up the orb, standing before Sui Yi and Gu Sansi; he paused for a while, discovering neither of them moved.

Evidently, they knew what he intended to do with this Black Blood Elixir Orb.

He carefully secured the Black Blood Elixir Orb, and before leaving, he unexpectedly left a message.

——"She’s not at Shura’s."

Then he left.

Sui Yi didn’t try to stop him.

Gu Sansi crossed his arms, looking towards where Du Meng had left, saying: "The demonic blood in her body is likely much more than Crown Prince Yan’s, but she used medication to ease the transformation process...but backlash has begun, and in the future, she is likely to suffer greatly, and this suffering is like an addiction, the more painful it is, the more demonic blood is needed to alleviate it...leading to intensification."

"I know, so we have to find her quickly."

As for why Crown Prince Yan was willing to self-immolate to leave the Black Blood Elixir Orb, it didn’t need investigating anymore.

And the reason he came today to contest for Jade Bi and Dou Tian Shu was also clear—these two items, whichever one, would hold great significance to Jhiang Chenyu.

Unfortunately, Jade Bi shattered, and Dou Tian Shu was...

Sui Yi subconsciously glanced towards the sky.

A perfectly sealed spatial barrier.

She vaguely felt the God’s Jasper hadn’t left.

"Sui Yi...can you please take your baby away"

Natasha remained still, just throwing a few glances towards Sui Yi; she dared not move, because the floating Jade Infant kept staring at her.

This was a girl, exquisitely transparent, her chubby legs folded similarly, her chubby hands silently fingered, eyes fixated on Natasha’s...chest.

Watching while swallowing.

Honestly, this eager gaze was truly heart-wrenching.

Su Zimu and others had already suggested directly or subtly: perhaps, you should let her drink～

One or two all this way!

Natasha was furious, this prince has no milk!

Sui Yi turned her head, seeing this scene, somewhat helplessly, yet somewhat inexplicably.....

She took a step forward, appearing in front of Natasha, reaching out, gradually moving closer, finally gently holding the baby.

Unlike the coldness during the Jade phase, at this moment the baby had the softness and vulnerability of a human infant, paired with the coolness of jade, looking very enticing.

As she held her, she seemed to feel herself, or perhaps sensed something in the High Priest’s heart being let go and melted.

A slight heartbeat triggered a wondrous feeling through her limbs and bones.

It seemed....

A bloodline?

Sui Yi felt slightly embarrassed for a moment.

This feeling left her somewhat uneasy, yet curious—it had to be, she finally understood Natasha’s feeling of inexplicable motherhood, despite doing nothing.

But she certainly couldn’t show it on the surface.

"Yes, she’s hungry, let her drink it."

Natasha looked at Sui Yi, expressionless: "You know I...."

"She’s drinking earth vein energy, not needing your milk, even though you don’t have any."

Gu Sansi’s words were relatively gentle. (⊙﹏⊙)

But Natasha felt entirely unwell.

"What if I refuse?"

As she refused, she instinctively glanced beside her at Sui Yi holding the Jade Infant.

Sui Yi had apparently never held a baby before, so no one knew her expression would be so...soft, yet tinged with a melancholy that wouldn’t fade while holding the baby.

Besides, she seemed to gaze at the baby, almost as if she thought of someone through her.....

Yet she still turned her face, looked at Natasha, just glanced at her.

"Refusing?"

A typical gentle, cool tone.

High Priest style.

Natasha felt a sudden chill.

This woman was still that High Priest or?

"Yes...I..."

"The one she chooses, doesn’t allow refusal...not to mention she gave you a benefit first."

Sui Yi didn’t say much, just that one sentence.

Natasha felt cornered.

And Gu Sansi added another telling blow: "The earth’s vein vitality in your body is specifically drawn out to feed the child, if not fed...it may burst."

Natasha directly took the baby, gritting her teeth, her face somewhat contorted, she turned and flew into a building.

Watching her seemed like she was desperate to eat the child...

But none present worried.

In comparison, they were more worried about Wu Jue.

Wu Jue transformed from crow to human, palming a few pieces of Jade Bi fragments, looked at the building where Natasha entered, and said faintly: "Hers or yours?"
