Poison Genius Consort

m inside the stone room.
Tang Li was thrilled and dashed inside, while Gu Beiyue stuck to him like a second shadow.
Han Yunxi was about to follow when Long Feiye stopped her and said, “Don’t run, I’ll bring you there.”

Although it was hard to be lovey dovey in this environment, Long Feiye still had to take care of Han Yunxi’s pregnant state.

“It’s fine, I’ll use lightness techniques instead of running! I’m only five months along, so the fetus is more or less settled.
Fourth Young Miss Ren’s medicine was very effective, don’t worry,” Han Yunxi placated.

Gu Beiyue had already determined that she’d made a full recovery from her near miscarriage or else Long Feiye would have trapped her in a princess carry already.
Now he ignored her and went to grab her waist, preparing to use lightness techniques on them both.
But he soon discovered she Han Yunxi didn’t have a waist anymore.
In the past, his arm could wind around her from the back and hold her tight.
At the very least, he could take to the air while holding her by his side.
Right now, his arm over went as far as the edge of her protruding belly.

As soon as he touched that spot, Long Feiye grew tense again.
Afraid to use any strength, he fell back.
Han Yunxi sensed his fingers turning stiff and could help but laugh in secret.
Then she removed his hand and declared, “It’s fine, I know my limits.
Trust me.”

Instead, Long Feiye stuck out a foot and said coldly, “Step on this and hold onto me!” This tone was akin to an order like the commanding look in his eyes.

At this moment, Tang Li’s cries filtered out, “Big bro, sister-in-law, hurry and have a look!”

Without a choice, Han Yunxi stepped on Long Feiye’s right foot and held onto him.
As soon as she tightened her grip, Long Feiye pushed off and got them into the room.
She couldn’t help but admit that it was faster traveling this way.
Although she could manage lightness techniques, she didn’t dare go too hard, which affected her overall speed.
Otherwise, she would have gotten to the men long before they fell victims to the poison.

As soon as Long Feiye landed, Han Yunxi quickly got off his foot, afraid of crushing him.
After all, now she was carrying the weight of both her and her child.
Inside the stone room, Gu Beiyue and Tang Li had surrounded a section of the wall.

“What’s wrong?” Long Feiye went over.

“There’s another secret room inside,” Tang Li clearly looked disappointed, but he didn’t act out.
Long Feiye and Han Yunxi approached to see there was a hole by the lower right section of the wall, wide enough for one person to fit through.
It seemed like someone had brought away Ning Jing while they were fighting with Bai Yanqing.

“I hope Gu Qishao can keep Bai Yanqing occupied,” Gu Beiyue remarked.
“I’ll go down first and scope it out.”

“No, I’ll go!” Tang Li stopped him.

He wanted to save Ning Jing personally.
Everyone understood this, but an unknown hole like this was too risky.
After all, Bai Yanqing and Gu Qishao had fallen into such a hole as well.
Moreover, the location of the two holes weren’t far, so who knew if they were connected at the end?

“It’s too dangerous, I better go instead,” Gu Beiyue said.

“Stop arguing.
Do you think there’s no poison down there? Bai Yanqing and Gu Qishao both fell a long way because I can’t sense the poison in Gu Qishao’s body anymore.
Beiyue’s faster, so let him go first,” Han Yunxi said.

No one noticed the extra bout of tenderness that came from the casual “Beiyue” out of her lips, much less Han Yunxi herself.
However, Gu Beiyue did sense it.
He didn’t say anything, but picked up the lantern hanging on the wall to shine it in the hole.
Then he leaped right in.
Tang Li had enough wit to send a Needlework needle into Gu Beiyue’s sleeve so it could track him into the hole.
Judging by the length of thread it gave out, this was another very deep hole.
After a long while, the string finally stopped unrolling.

“It’s very deep!” Long Feiye was surprised.
“Gu Beiyue, what’s the situation?”

“It should be safe.
This is a tunnel, you guys can come down,” Gu Beiyue shouted back.

Tang Li was the first to follow, while Long Feiye moved aside the rock blocking the entrance to carry Han Yunxi down with him.
Below was a tunnel as high as one man, wide enough for single file traveling.
Someone as tall as Long Feiye even had to hunch slightly to avoid the ceiling.
It was difficult to traverse such a path.
In other words, if anyone chose to ambush them here, it’d be a cinch.
Of course, Han Yunxi was prudent enough to scatter a bunch of poison powder at the entrance after they landed.

Yes, Bai Yanqing could absorb her poison, but his high-level subordinates would be useless against them!

“Ahead of us…” Long Feiye mused, “Should be the doorway to the secret room above us.” His sense of direction was incomparable and never wrong.

Gu Beiyue smiled.
“Your Highness, I’m afraid that’s the wrong direction.
I was facing the entrance to the secret chamber above us when I jumped into this hole.”

Now everyone began to wonder.
Could they be in the same tunnel as Bai Yanqing and Gu Qishao?

“Go on, everyone be careful,” Long Feiye said seriously.

Gu Beiyue walked at the forefront as the team of four formed a single file underground.

What would they run into next?
