Chapter 488 Sisters
Chapter 488 Sisters
Ling Yi was somewhat surprised after hearing what Adele said.
Judging from the fact that Chunri was willing to accept the flowers from Adele, her personality couldn't be that bad, but Lingyi never expected that Chunri would die because of Adele.
Especially in spring, she is facing her own father and the person she loves.
At this moment, Ling Yi truly became interested in Adele's past.
Before Ling Yi could ask any questions after Ade finished speaking, she waved her hand, and the surrounding scenery changed. The snowy landscape transformed into a palace, where many people were coming and going, each with a serious and solemn expression.
After most of those people had left, Ling Yi saw Chunri lying on the bed. Unlike the energetic Chunri he had seen before, Chunri was now frighteningly pale, as if she would disappear like snow in the next second.
Ling Yi didn't ask Ade what was wrong with Chunri. Instead, she turned her gaze to the man guarding Chunri's bedside. That man was the same man who appeared in the memory that the vengeful spirit had initially projected.
Looking at the way the man was looking at Adele, Ling Yi realized his identity: "Is he the Lord of the Snowfield Temple?"
“That’s right.” Adele looked at the man, her eyes filled with such intense hatred that it seemed to solidify into a tangible form: “The reason Chunri became like this is because Xue Wenyao wanted to use the hunting of the Azure Wolf to seriously injure himself again so that I would help him and thus figure out my true strength. However, their plan went wrong because Chunri was clingy. Xue Wenyao originally planned to use the Nine Lives Serpent on himself to bite Chunri. After Chunri was poisoned, the team members who went to her continuously used their cultivation to suppress the venom, which was how they managed to get Chunri back to the temple.”
"You saved her?" Ling Yi looked at Adele and said indifferently, "You didn't have to save her."
“I could indeed choose not to save her, but…” Adele didn’t speak, but looked towards the door.
Ling Yi followed her gaze and saw Ade walk in, with a haggard-looking Xue Wenyao beside her. The man who had been guarding Chunri's bedside saw Ade come in and quickly stepped forward and knelt down in front of her, begging Ade to save Chunri.
Seeing this, Adele, who was standing next to Ling Yi, mocked, "The old man's kneeling was genuine, but in the end, he was willing to give up Chunri for his own sake."
Ling Yi didn't speak, but just watched quietly.
The Nine-Lives Serpent is a highly venomous snake in the Snow Region. It is only as thick as an ordinary person's little finger, and its body is pure white. It is also good at hiding, making it difficult for even cultivators to detect. Every year, many cultivators in the Snow Region die from its bite. However, despite the deaths of so many people, the Snow Region has not been able to develop an antidote to counteract its venom, and can only accept their fate.
This is why even the Temple Master of the Snowfield Temple was helpless when Spring was poisoned; they could only place their hopes on Adele.
If the person poisoned is Xue Wenyao, Adai will definitely help. But if the person poisoned is Chunri, even if both of them ask Adai for help, it is uncertain whether Adai will actually save them.
Looking at the situation in the hall, even without looking back, Ling Yi knew that Ade would be saved.
Just as Haruhi accepted Adele's flowers, Adele's willingness to give Haruhi flowers even after Haruhi made those provocative remarks proves that she is kind and compassionate and would not abandon Haruhi in her time of need.
Ling Yi was right. Ade saved Chunri, but the reason why the Nine Lives Serpent Venom could kill people so quickly was because they were from the Demon Clan's Chi Snake lineage. Although they could not turn a person into a pool of blood on the spot like the Chi Snake, they were still difficult to deal with. Therefore, even Ade had to go through a lot of trouble to save Chunri.
After being rescued by Adele, Chunri, out of gratitude for being saved, was no longer as spoiled and rude as before. However, she still did not want Adele and Xue Wenyao to be together. If Xue Wenyao went to find Adele, Chunri would definitely follow. Sometimes, Chunri would even find things to do to get Xue Wenyao away so that she could stay by Adele's side.
Over time, Adele and Chunri got along better and better. In Xue Wenyao’s casual remark, the two were like sisters.
