Chapter 313: Madam Is Already More Than a Month Pregnant

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

It was nothing for one person to have a stomachache, but for a group of people to have a stomachache, it meant that they were most likely poisoned. Wen Renhua brought Gu Zhongxun forward and checked the pulses of two soldiers. At the same time, he came to a conclusion. “It’s the poison of the Spectral Flower. If an antidote is not provided within 24 hours, you will definitely die! ”

Spectral Flowers were a type of poisonous flower unique to the southern frontier. However, there were no such flowers nearby, so how did everyone get poisoned?

Wen Renhua continued, “The Spectral Flower takes effect quickly. They all ate the food just now. It’s very likely that someone poisoned the food or water source.”

They had been transporting the food and had eaten it along the way, so it was impossible for there to be a problem.

Either someone had poisoned the well, or someone had poisoned it while cooking.

There were dozens of large iron pots for cooking. How could they not be discovered when adding in the poison?

The only possibility was that they had poisoned the well.

The moment everyone was about to check the water source, Chu Tianbao had already rushed towards the carriage.

Just now, Bai Wutong had drunk the oolong tea brewed from well water.

Thinking of Bai Wutong saying that she was not feeling well, Chu Tianbao’s face instantly turned pale.

Bai Wutong did not dislike the fact that Chu Tianbao was the young general. She was even a little proud that he was the man who had conquered more than ten cities in the Yan Kingdom in one go and made the Yan army tremble in fear.

Bai Wutong held the jade pendant that she had carried with her when she found Chu Tianbao. This time, she came to a realization.

Presumably, the Chu character on this jade pendant was not his surname, but the military talisman given to him by Emperor Linghui.

Bai Wutong looked at Qingfeng. “Has the Young General ever been married?” She had never heard of it before. It did not necessarily mean that he did not.

Qingfeng was in charge of the entire Dark Guards Team. As the Yan Kingdom ‘s obvious mortal enemy, how could they not investigate Gu Junyan?

Qingfeng said honestly, “He’s not married. Thinking of Bai Wutong’s worry, she specially added, “Master Chu has always been practising abstinence.”

Apart from Bai Wutong, he had no other female partners.

Bai Wutong suddenly relaxed and smiled. She wondered if she should call him Gu Junyan or Chu Tianbao later.

Suddenly, there was a sharp pain in her stomach. Bai Wutong covered it convulsively. At this moment, Chu Tianbao suddenly lifted the curtain and picked Bai Wutong up. Before Bai Wutong could speak, Bai Wutong had already arrived in front of Renhua.

Chu Tianbao’s cold face was filled with anxiety. “Hurry up and take her pulse.”

Wen Renhua did not dare to delay and felt his pulse.

Bai Wutong’s condition was exactly the same as Lu Ye and the others.

Just as Wen Renhua was about to retract his hand, his expression changed again. After repeatedly confirming it, he frowned at Chu Tianbao and said, “Madam is already more than a month pregnant, but she has been poisoned by the Spectral Flower. If the poison is not removed in time, this child might not be able to survive.”

It should have been a joyous occasion, but Bai Wutong was poisoned. There was only silence in the room.

Even Bai Wutong held her breath the moment she heard that she was pregnant and poisoned.

This was the Little Stinky that Chu Tianbao had been looking forward to for a long time. However, he had been poisoned before he was even in his adult form…

Even in the modern world, early-stage pregnancy required careful care. Any slight misuse of medicine might cause the fetus to deform. In an instant, she felt a heartache surging like a tide, and the corners of Bai Wutong’s eyes turned red.

When Cui Lingyi, who had asked Bai Wutong to drink oolong tea with her, heard this, even the intense pain brought by the spectral flower was overwhelmed by the unbearable guilt she felt.

If anything happened to Bai Wutong and the child in her stomach, she would definitely not forgive herself.

Chu Tianbao looked at Bai Wutong’s stomach and took a few seconds to recover. He held Bai Wutong’s hand tightly and asked Wen Renhua, “Can you concoct an antidote now? Will it hurt the mother and son?”

Wen Renhua said, “The medicine Hundred Spirits can cure the poison of the Spectral Flower.”

“But we don’t have the Hundred Spirits.”

In an instant, everyone’s mood fell to rock bottom.

Chu Tianbao looked at Sheng Huaixuan gloomily. “How long will it take to find the Hundred Spirits now?”

Sheng Huaixuan frowned and said, “We can only transport it from the Central Plains or buy it from the locals.”

By the time it was transported over from the Central Plains, it would have been too late.

What if they found the locals and they didn’t have the Hundred Spirits?

Wen Renhua said again, “All things complement and counter each other. You will definitely be able to find the ingredients for the antidote near the Spectral Flower.”

But they had no idea where the spectral flowers grew. After circling around, they still had to find the locals first.

Chu Tianbao’s face was dark. He suddenly thought of Feng Xun and Feng Yue in the team. He let go of Bai Wutong’s hand and comforted her. “I’ll be back soon.”

Chu Tianbao broke through the crowd and came to Feng Yue and Feng Xun. His expression was dark. “Where can we pick the Hundred Spirits nearby?”

They were familiar with the southern frontier and definitely knew where the Hundred Spirits could be found.

When Feng Yue and Feng Xun saw the soldiers rolling on the ground, they knew that they had been poisoned by the Spectral Flower. They also expected that Chu Tianbao would come to look for them, so they immediately made a request. “Let us go and we’ll tell you where the Hundred Spirits are!”

Chu Tianbao immediately said, “Lead the way! If you can’t find it in two hours, I’ll chop off both your hands.”

Feng Yue said agitatedly, “How can we find them in two hours! It will take at least six hours to find the Hundred Spirits!”

The Spectral Flower was in front of their Heavenly Wolf Army camp. As long as Chu Tianbao went there, he would definitely not be able to return.

Bringing them along would also allow their father to find an opportunity to save them.

Six hours meant 12 hours for a round trip. Every minute delay meant that Bai Wutong and the child were in greater danger.

Chu Tianbao said to the dark guard, “Bring two bowls of water over!”

Feng Yue realized that Chu Tianbao was going to feed them the poison of the Spectral Flower and immediately shouted agitatedly, “As long as you agree to let us go, we will definitely bring you to the Hundred Spirits. We won’t lie.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the dark guard came over with two bowls of well water and forcefully fed it to Feng Yue and Feng Xun.

Feng Yue struggled with all her might and roared, “If you dare to feed it to me, I won’t bring you there!”

How could they find an opportunity to escape after they had drunk the posion of the Spectral Flowers?

Chu Tianbao drew his sword. With a cold flash, Feng Yue’s entire arm was cut off.

She let out a shocking scream. Everyone looked over and was stunned by the shocking scene in front of them.

Chu Tianbao pointed his bleeding sword at Feng Xun’s glabella. “If you say another word of nonsense, I’ll dismember her.”

Feng Xun’s eyes were red. He hugged his sister, who had lost her arm and fainted, and wailed and roared, “I’m going to kill you!!!”

In the next second, the sword rose and fell. “Ah—I’

Feng Yue’s other arm was also cut off. In order to prevent her from committing suicide, the dark guards even pulled her out of Feng Xun’s arms and quickly stuffed her into a piece of linen.

Chu Tianbao said coldly, “The next time will be her legs.”

His cold face was like a demon from 500 meters of hell.

Feng Xun looked at his weak sister who seemed like she was about to die at any moment and cried, “I’ll bring you there.”

Chu Tianbao said, “If you can’t find the Hundred Spirits after six hours, she will be dismembered or buried alive.. You will choose her fate yourself!”
