If the truth is told to the eldest daughter, with her stubborn personality, she will definitely do everything she can to uncover the secret that has been hidden for twenty years.

But the road to finding the truth is bound to be full of difficulties, dangers and bloodshed, and he really can't bear to see his daughter and grandson fall into danger.

But if he didn't tell her, he was worried that his daughter would miss Chu Lingfeng.

In the past few days, he discovered that Chu Lingfeng always secretly took care of a female convict who was used as a military prostitute. The woman was quite pretty, and there was a pitiful look between her eyebrows.

Why would Chu Lingfeng be so interested in a military prostitute? This made Huo Jianjie suspicious.

He was worried that Chu Lingfeng really had feelings for that woman.

After all, the Chu family was now in decline, and the King of Chu was no longer alive. Wang Shi had no say in Chu Lingfeng's marriage. If Chu Lingfeng really fell in love with that woman, no one would be able to stop him.

Although his eldest daughter was a hundred times better than that woman in every aspect, she was at a disadvantage in one respect: she already had Chen'er.

For Chu Lingfeng, the eldest daughter is both his legitimate fiancée and his savior.

Once his daughter's identity is revealed, Chu Lingfeng may choose to be with his daughter out of morality, gratitude and responsibility, but will such a marriage really be happy?

And if Chu Lingfeng chose that woman, what would happen to his eldest daughter?

Huo Jianjie thought about it over and over again. These days, because he noticed the changes in Chu Lingfeng, the future he had originally planned for his daughter suddenly became confusing.

At this moment, he came to ask his eldest daughter for advice, just to let her make a decision without knowing the truth.

No matter what choice she makes, Huo Jianjie can only regard it as God's will.

Murong Ling'er noticed that Huo Jianjie looked more solemn than ever before. After a moment's thought, she decided that since this matter was so difficult, it would be better to make it public for discussion.

Just as he was about to speak, a scream that pierced his eardrums suddenly came from the back of the crowd.

"Help! Poisonous spiders! There are poisonous spiders everywhere!"

Sun Ying was holding Sun Shaojie in her arms and gradually fell asleep. Suddenly, she felt a piercing chill on her neck. She reached out to touch it and found something furry and sticky. She was so scared that she jumped up and let out a series of screams.

"Ah ah ah..."

"Poisonous spiders! Swarms of poisonous spiders!"

"Run! Save us!" Exclamations and cries were intertwined, and the whole team was in chaos in an instant.

Murong Ling'er's figure flashed up, and her spiritual sense quickly spread around.

I saw countless poisonous spiders pouring out from the dark corners, with strange blue light flashing around them, and it was obvious that they were extremely poisonous.

Murong Ling'er quickly formed seals with her hands and shouted softly. The surrounding trees seemed to have received an order. The roots broke out of the ground and lashed towards the group of spiders like agile whips.

But there were too many spiders, and they kept coming forward without retreating.

Murong Ling'er's beautiful eyes focused, and with a wave of her jade hand, an ice wall instantly condensed around the crowd, temporarily protecting everyone.

But the poisonous spider quickly climbed up the ice wall and was about to break through the defense line.

Murong Ling'er was extremely anxious. She took out a handful of spirit beads from her arms and threw them hard at the spider group.

The spirit pearl exploded and turned into starlight. Any spiders touched by the starlight were turned into dust.

However, the poisonous spiders seemed endless.

Murong Ling'er frowned and decided to take a risk. She took a deep breath, and the spiritual power surged around her body, and she rushed directly into the group of spiders.

She moved swiftly, and her palms brought up a biting cold wind. Wherever she went, the poisonous spiders were blown away.

Everyone inside the ice wall was still terrified.

Murong Chen's face was pale, and he snuggled tightly in Chu Lingfeng's arms, his body trembling. Xiao Si stood vigilantly in front of them, his eyes fixed on the poisonous spider outside.

When Mr. Li Qiuyue saw someone bitten by a spider, he rushed forward to provide treatment.

At this time, Huo Shuixian also encountered misfortune. When the group of spiders attacked, she was sitting aside rubbing her feet. A poisonous spider suddenly jumped onto the back of her foot and bit her hard.

Huo Shuixian jumped up in pain and screamed like a pig being slaughtered.

“Narcissus!” Huo Jianjie was furious. Seeing that Mr. Li and Li Qiuyue were busy treating others and had no time to care about her, he could only ask Murong Linger for help: “Linger, please save Narcissus!”

Upon hearing this, Murong Ling'er kept chanting magic spells in her hands and her feet moved like the wind. In a moment, she returned to the ice wall. She took out a silver needle and inserted it into the acupuncture points around Huo Shuixian's wound to prevent the spread of the poison. At the same time, she sprinkled spiritual powder with her other hand to dispel the toxins from Huo Shuixian's body.

Poisonous spiders continued to gather outside the ice wall. Their dark green eyes flashed chillingly in the darkness, as if they were waiting for everyone to reveal their flaws. The panic in the crowd grew stronger, and everyone felt insecure.

The poison of this spider was extremely toxic. Huo Shuixian's lips turned dark purple in an instant, and the instep of her feet swelled up, as if it had been injected with a surge of evil energy. The swelling spread at a speed visible to the naked eye.

She fell backwards, her consciousness fading quickly like a candle in the wind.

Murong Ling'er rushed over like a gust of wind. Huo Shuixian looked at her with endless fear and help with her eyes that still had a trace of clarity, and then she fainted completely.

“Narcissus!” Huo Jianjie’s cry was filled with despair and anxiety. Veins popped out of his forehead. He turned to look at Murong Ling’er, his voice trembling and pleading: “Ling’er, please save her quickly!”

Murong Ling'er looked solemn and quickly took out a dagger that emitted a cold light. She took a deep breath, as if gathering all the spiritual power and courage in her body, and then suddenly stabbed at the wound on Huo Shuixian that was bitten by the poisonous spider.

The dagger stabbed with determination, penetrating the wound slightly with precision. The unconscious Huo Shuixian's body instinctively twitched violently, and her brows furrowed in pain.

Huo Jianjie was extremely anxious when he saw this. He squatted down without hesitation and held Huo Shuixian's legs tightly with his hands like iron clamps, fearing that her struggle would affect Murong Linger's treatment.

Murong Ling'er didn't hesitate at all. She pulled the dagger in her hand, and a bloody hole suddenly appeared. Then she quickly slashed it horizontally, and a slanted cross appeared in front of everyone.

She quickly covered the wound with both hands and squeezed it hard, ignoring the disgusting feeling.

In an instant, dark purple poisonous blood gushed out from the wound like a flood. Every drop of poisonous blood splashed on the ground, as if it could corrode a small pit, emitting a strong and pungent stench. The smell seemed to have substance and spread in the air, making people around cover their noses.

Seeing the poisonous blood gradually decreasing, Murong Ling'er's eyes became stern. She knew that the most critical moment had come. She gritted her teeth and raised the dagger in her hand high again. At that moment, it seemed as if time had stopped.

Then, she dug deep into the wound with a sharp knife. The movement was clean and neat, and she dug out a piece of dead flesh that had been corroded and discolored by the toxin from the wound.
