Liang Chongyue stretched out his hand and began to take his own pulse. Within a few breaths, he felt as if his whole body was being roasted on fire. Although his skin and flesh were still as white as before, he felt as if it was burned to ashes.

"What medicine is missing? Tell me quickly and let Jing Suiyang and the others find it. This fire jade is rebelling inside my body."

Liang Chongyue felt several forces that did not belong to her running around in her body, impacting her blood vessels and internal organs. If she had not protected her heart in time, she would have bled to death by now.

"What's wrong, Your Highness? Your Highness, why do you look so grim?"

Yun Ling felt that the palm of Her Highness's hand on hers was sweating, which had never happened before. Seeing that Her Highness's face was pale and bloodless, Yun Ling immediately began to take Her Highness's pulse.

But the pulse seemed normal and as strong as usual.

Looking at His Highness's condition, this doesn't match up at all, and Yun Ling can feel that the stronger His Highness's pulse gets, the weaker he becomes.

Yun Ling saw that His Highness's lips were trembling, but he was unable to speak. She could only wipe the sweat from His Highness's head with a handkerchief and prepare to help His Highness lie down on the bed so that she could find the palace doctor to treat His Highness.

Liang Chongyue was in so much pain that he couldn't stand. If Yun Ling hadn't supported him, he would have been lying on the ground, struggling to suppress the abnormality in his body.

Seeing the host's expression, the system quickly retrieved the information and placed it in front of the host:

"The information says that fresh blood from someone related to the Fire Jade is needed to introduce the medicine to completely remove the Fire Jade, but I don't understand what someone related to the Fire Jade is."

The system was so anxious that it was jumping up and down, muttering to itself and praying to God.

Liang Chongyue raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, and with difficulty looked up at the information recorded on the panel. Almost instantly, He Yanting's face appeared in his mind:

"Yun Ling!"

Liang Chongyue couldn't use his internal energy now, so he could only use his hands to hold Yun Ling's hand tightly.

Seeing that His Highness finally responded, Yun Ling immediately responded:

"Your Highness, this servant is here."

Liang Chongyue's hand holding Yun Ling was shaking uncontrollably. He looked up at Yun Ling with a fierce look he had never seen before:

"Go and kidnap He Yanting. This princess needs his blood."

Liang Chongyue no longer cared about etiquette and rules at this time. She was dying and all the plans she had made over the years could not be ruined like this.

Upon hearing this, Yun Ling didn't hesitate at all. She picked up the prince, put him on the couch, and rushed out without looking back.

After a while, Liang Chongyue, who was in so much pain that he was dazed, heard the sound of fighting coming from outside. It didn't last long, and without thinking too much, he knew that He Yanting must have lost.

When Liang Chongyue was about to faint from the pain, a strong smell of blood rushed into her nostrils, and the forces in her body that were originally restless instantly calmed down.

"Your Highness, I had Jing Suiyang knock Prince He unconscious and release a bowl of blood. If that's not enough, there's more blood being released over there. Your Highness, we have as much as you want."

The power in his body settled down, and Liang Chongyue instantly felt that the wound on his back was less painful.

He slowly opened his eyes and was about to ask the system where the other herbs were, when he saw the system holding a pot of grass in its mouth and was anxious, worried that the grass in the pot would fall to the ground, and his eyes met with each other.

When the system saw the host wake up, it placed the herbs in the basin in front of the host:

"Host, I will process this bowl of blood. This bowl alone is not enough. I need another bowl. After taking it together with these herbs, the Fire Jade is expected to appear in twelve hours."

Liang Chongyue had no doubts and said to Yun Ling:

"Bring another bowl. After you put it down, go out and prepare some hot water. Have Jing Suiyang and the others guard every corner of the Princess's Mansion. No one is allowed to enter unless I summon them. As for He Yanting, take good care of him. He will be useful in the future."

Yun Ling responded, put down the bowl of blood, and went out again.

With the bowl of blood there, Liang Chongyue felt much better just by smelling it. She didn't care how the system handled it. When she opened her eyes again, there was an empty bowl in front of her.

The whole room was filled with the strong and foul smell of blood, but the things inside her seemed to like it very much.

"Host, you're awake. Hurry up and eat this bowl of blood cake. Then take a nap and you should be all right."

There was no one else in the room, so the system stood up and pushed the bowl of crimson pastries in front of Liang Chongyue.

As the bowl got closer, Liang Chongyue smelled a strong smell of blood. Suppressing the discomfort, Liang Chongyue reached out to take out the pastry from the bowl and stuffed it into his mouth with his eyes closed.

The expected sticky and foul smell burst out from the corner of his mouth. Liang Chongyue could only suppress the nausea and stuff the blood cake into his mouth by willpower.

Not a single crumb could be wasted. After finishing the entire bowl of blood cake, Liang Chongyue lay on the couch, covering his mouth tightly with his hands, trying hard to suppress his nausea and prevent himself from vomiting.

"Host, how about you lie on my back and I'll carry you to the bed. You might catch a cold if you sleep here in this weather."

Liang Chongyue was still suppressing the psychological and physical nausea and vomiting. After he recovered a little, Liang Chongyue supported his body with his hands, turned over, and lay on the back of the system.

After the system carried her to the bed, Liang Chongyue no longer had the strength to move. The system still put her on the bed and used its mouth to bring a quilt to cover her.

"Host, don't worry. I will be here to protect you and will never let anyone get close to you."

Liang Chongyue didn't dare to believe half of the system's assurances out of ten, but the system knew everything about her.

She must be extremely weak in the next period of time, and she would not feel at ease if someone else were to watch over her.

Before Liang Chongyue could respond to the system, he felt his eyelids drooping and he fainted the next second.

The system walked forward and rubbed its head against the host's hand outside the quilt. Seeing that the host did not react, it knew that the drug had started to take effect.

The system walked around the room, and after confirming that there was no one hiding in the room and no danger, it walked to the head of the host's bed and lay down.

It was standing by the host's bed, its pair of green bean-sized eyes stretched as wide as they could for the first time, alertly watching its surroundings without blinking. Whenever it heard a sound, it would look in the direction of the sound.
