Chapter 6: Chapter 239: On the Wedding Day, Go Easy! Go Easy! It Hurts!

Duanmu discovered that the dart had been poisoned! His eyes rolled back, and he looked at Linghu Huori weakly, saying, "Huori, save me!"

Linghu Huori's expression sharpened. He scooped him up and shouted loudly, "Guard the flower carriage! I need to remove the poisoned dart from Crown Prince Duanmu!"

Carrying Crown Prince Duanmu into the magnificent flower carriage where he was sitting, Linghu Huori ignored the chaos outside and immediately pulled out a sharp dagger, saying to Duanmu, "Endure it! I have to get the dart out of you immediately! If you can bear it, you'll save me the trouble of using my anesthetic!" Anesthetics were rare; his sister had recently taught him how to refine them, and he had only just learned.

"Mhm, I know, go ahead!" Duanmu looked as if he were ready to face death. However, only an instant later, he threw his head back and screamed, "Ah! Be gentler! Gentler! It hurts!"

"Are you even a man? Crying in pain like this?" Linghu Huori had no intention of being tender. The sharp dagger went in immediately with a twisting motion, swiftly extracting a silver dart. He wrapped it in cloth and immediately used his mouth to suck out the poison for Duanmu. In truth, it wasn't that he was unwilling to give Duanmu anesthetic, but rather that using it would leave the body numb; if one could endure it, it was better not to use it.

Crown Prince Duanmu's consciousness was still clear. Seeing Linghu Huori pull out the silver dart and then use his mouth to suck out the poison, even though the pain was piercing his heart, he still said, "Huori, it's so good to have you!" Linghu Huori hated him to the bone, yet he saved him at the critical moment.

How should one put this? Looking at Linghu Huori, he felt that he shouldn't have turned his world upside down, yet at the same time, he felt he didn't want to end this matter.

"Bullshit!" Linghu Huori scoffed on the surface, but his heart was churning. If he hadn't acted like a child and thrown that bead at Crown Prince Duanmu just now, perhaps the Prince wouldn't be injured. Of course, the Crown Prince knew this, yet he didn't utter a single word of blame, even saying it was good to have him! So, if what the Crown Prince said wasn't bullshit, what was?

Fortunately, Linghu Huori was proficient in medical theory, and since he didn't treat today as a grand wedding, he had habitually brought medicine with him. If one were to ask what Linghu Huori's most habitual habit was, it was that he always carried various kinds of medicine on him.

Linghu Huori quickly treated Duanmu's wound and said, "Try it. How is it? This dart didn't penetrate very deep; the opponent's martial arts are clearly mediocre. The poison has also been cleared; there won't be any lingering trouble."

"That's good! Huori, your medical skills are also superb!" Duanmu praised. As Duanmu looked at Linghu Huori's peerless, breathtaking beauty, he was filled with infatuation! If... if...

"Also?" Linghu Huori asked.

"Yes! Your sister Linghu Shuiyue's medical skills are also top-notch! How are you two siblings so outstanding?! How am I supposed to let go of anything?" Duanmu Canglan reached out, wanting to touch Linghu Huori's face.

Linghu Huori fiercely pinched the hand the Crown Prince tried to use to touch him. As Duanmu let out a miserable cry, Linghu Huori said, "So? You repay kindness with resentment, insisting on marrying me as your wife? Just because you like my sister? Even though you know perfectly well she doesn't like you?" Linghu Huori's eyes were like fiery eyes, looking ready to spit fire again.

"Don't you have even a little bit of affection for this Prince? Just like your sister? How is this Prince repaying kindness with resentment? This Prince is repaying a favor. At least, I didn't specifically demand Linghu Shuiyue, did I? If I had demanded him, do you think the Emperor would have signed the contract?" Crown Prince Duanmu suddenly asked Linghu Huori with a weak gaze.

"If I could, I would want to slaughter you, mince you piece by piece into meat paste, and then feed your flesh piece by piece to your black eagle? And of course, in the end, I would kill your black eagle too!" Linghu Huori said fiercely, his anger boiling over.
