Chapter 1263


    Overwhelmed with rage, the old man pointed at the crown prince.


    "H-How could you speak like that! I''m old enough to be your elder! H-How could you be so


    disrespectful to me?" The crown prince curled his lips.


    "Stop feeding me that kind of f*cking nonsense! My mom told me that no one could talk to us like a


    Dutch uncle in our lives! Believe it or not, if you say that bullsh*t about you being an elder in front of me


    again, I''m gonna break your f*cking leg!"


    The aged man still wanted to say something, but he was stopped by those next to him.


    Actually, many from the distinguished families vaguely knew some of Poison Spider''s past.


    Abandoned by her parents and the elders of her family, she single-handedly brought up her younger


    brother and son.


    In her early years, she had even been vited by men dozens of years older than her in order to get a


    morsel of food.


    Therefore, Poison Spider didn''t care a damn about seniority.


    If the old man were to keep on arguing with the crown prince, he would only bring trouble upon himself.


    In the end, with nobody objecting to it, the Seven- Leafed Lotus went to Matthew.


    Running upstairs at once, he prepped the Seven-Leafed Lotus before carefully feeding it to Crystal.


    With the Seven-Leafed Lotus ingested, the iciness of Crystal''s body gradually went away atst, upon


    which Matthew had a few maids help her get dressed.


    A little while after that, Crystal walked out of her room.


    At the moment, she looked no different from normal people, but in reality, she had two kinds of energy


    —one extremely hot and the other extremely cold—flowing within her simultaneously thanks to the


    Frost Charm and the Seven-Leafed Lotus.


    The two kinds of energy couldn''t blend together directly because the process would be very painful.


    With Crystal''s physical condition, there was no way she could bear the pain.


    Therefore, Matthew could only keep the two kinds of energy in equilibrium for the time being.


    However, such an equilibrium came at a price.


    The price being, the extremely hot energy and the extremely cold energy in Crystal''s body would erupt


    in session, causing her body to asionally be extremely cold one moment and extremely hot the


    next.


    Such a situation would put Crystal in a great deal of pain.


    Even so, it was much better than having her soak in that medicinal bath all day long.


    Matthew took Crystal downstairs, by which time everyone downstairs had packed up and were ready to


    set out.


    Matthew handed Crystal over to Ambrose, asking thetter to send her back to Eastcliff first.


    After that, he equipped himself lightly and set out with the group of herb growers.


    These herb growers came from Stonedale.


    Living deep in the mountains, they made a living as herb growers for generations.


    Of course, they owned many properties out there, and it could be said that any of them had a personal


    net worth of hundreds of billions.


    After flying to the city where the herb growers lived, everyone traveled by car for a full half day before


    finally reaching the little mountain vige where they lived.


    Located deep in the mountains, the vige was very much out of the way, but it was built magnificently.


    There were no high-rise buildings, but every house in the vige was a vi with exquisite decor.


    Ss was the vige''s current chief, so he enjoyed high prestige in the vige.

    After everyone entered the vige, Ss first arranged for them to rest for one night.


    The crown prince and Matthew stayed in a vi.


    After dinner, Matthew got Ss toe over, asking to take a look at the dead body of the person who


    had previously returned to the vige.


    Ss looked stupefied.


    What''s the point of looking at a dead body in the middle of the night? But luckily, the person''s dead


    body hadn''t been buried yet, so Matthew and the crown prince got to see the dead body.


    The body was well-preserved.


    However, after checking on the dead body, Matthew knitted his brows into a deep frown.


    Following Matthew closely, the crown prince asked in a whisper, "Matty, any findings?"


    Matthew exined in a grave voice, "There are three wounds on the body, but only one of them is a


    bite wound, which means the guardian beast rarely attacks with its fangs.And besides, none of these


    wounds were fatal; he died of poison.In other words, the guardian beast is poisonous, and we''ve got to


    watch out for this when wee across itter!"
