The Witch Ancestor’s complexion was so pale it was terrifying, and the shadow that shrouded over made one feel uneasy.
He reached out and with great force took the Jade Dragon Wine Jug from Su Yan’s hands.
He sniffed at the mouth of the jug, the Witch Ancestor’s voice laughing sinisterly,
"The medicine pills I gave you, why haven’t you put them in?"
Su Yan remained silent.
The Witch Ancestor opened the lid and handed it to Su Yan, speaking absurdities,
"I heard you have a younger brother, eight years old this year. Both your parents and you adore him dearly."
Su Yan slowly pulled out the light yellow medicine pill from her sleeve.
Under the Witch Ancestor’s gaze, she personally dropped it into the wine jug.
Following that, the Witch Ancestor laughed, his voice hoarse and gloomy,
"If you can make the Third Prince drink this wine, then your parents, your brother, and you will all be safe and sound."
He paused,
"But if... I find you played any tricks... all of you will die."
Xiao Hua hummed in her ear pendant,
"Evil person"
As he spoke, the Witch Ancestor handed the wine jug back to Su Yan.
Your Highness was even more strategic, knowing that this maid might very well scheme and had him specifically come over to watch her.
As expected, a woman truly cannot accomplish great things.
The Witch Ancestor saw that Su Yan was lowering her head, thinking she was scared by his words.
The Witch Ancestor’s pale hand lifted, patting Su Yan on the arm.
This was a slap before giving a sweet date to eat,
"You have no way out, if exposed and discovered as a spy, do you think you’ll survive until tomorrow? However, if you do this well, Your Highness will ensure your prosperity and a worry-free life."
After speaking, the Witch Ancestor heard footsteps, and he quickly left.
Su Yan silently stayed alone for a while, shaking the wine cup in her hand.
She walked out.
When she returned to Xuanyuan Yonghao’s side, for some reason, the dancer on the stage had changed into the Princess from Zhu Ri Country.
Next to this Princess Ouyang Ling was a white Fierce Tiger.
On the stage, there were some guards lying on the ground, seriously injured, as though they had just had a confrontation.
Chunhua saw Su Yan carrying wine back and grabbed her arm to explain,
"This Princess is really formidable, able to train that Fierce Tiger to be obedient and serve her, ten skilled guards went up together and still didn’t win, truly miraculous."
Su Yan licked her lips and glanced up at the stage,
Apparently feeling the danger from the Fierce Tiger, there were several times more guards watching around the stage,
There were also some black-clad guards whose swords and spears were already broken, being helped down from the high platform.
While they were talking, a coughing sound suddenly came from the position of the envoy of Zhu Ri Country.
Princess Ouyang Ling on the stage stopped, her hands behind her back, surveying the people present.
Ordinarily, this was extremely impolite.
But her spirited demeanor freely captivated everyone’s attention, causing them to overlook her every move,
She uttered in her pleasant voice,
"I heard that Xuanyuan Country has many talented and brave individuals. I wanted to see for myself, but... it’s quite disappointing indeed."
Princess Ouyang Ling’s golden thread bell chimed with her every move.
The whole scene was silent, and on the throne, Xuanyuan Honghua’s face looked very unpleasant.
Dozens of skilled individuals holding various weapons were defeated and thrown off the stage, truly a loss of face.
General Lin Liqiang was also fuming, itching to go on stage and fight, but looking at Prime Minister Zhao who continuously did not signal permission, he sat in torment.
