Consort Xue turned around in surprise, puzzled.
Logically speaking, the Beast Blood Gu should have already burrowed into Shen Lingjun's head, so why does she still seem completely unharmed?
Has it not flared up yet?
Consort Xue looked disgusted and refused to accept the few chrysanthemums that the Ninth Prince had plucked and messed up.
"No need. When I make a chrysanthemum pillow, I need clean flowers, not these rotten ones."
Shen Lingjun didn't mind, just smiled and turned back.
Consort Xue accompanied the Emperor as they continued walking forward. Suddenly, she felt a sharp, subtle pain in her left ear, piercing straight into her brain, as if a thin needle had suddenly pierced her head.
Consort Xue was stunned for a moment, and before she could react to what was happening, she felt an uncontrollable bloodlust rising in her heart!
Her blood was boiling, like a maddened beast, driven only by primal urges, wanting only to tear and kill with abandon...
Consort Xue let out a roar that was completely unlike a human's, opened her mouth to reveal two rows of white teeth, and pounced straight at the emperor who was closest to her, biting down on his throat!
The emperor was completely unprepared and was terrified!
However, the emperor had practiced martial arts in his youth and had some skill. He instinctively dodged, and Xue Pin's bite missed his throat, instead landing on his shoulder!
"what!--"
The emperor screamed and desperately tried to push Xue Pin away, but Xue Pin held on tightly and wouldn't let go. Soon, bright red blood appeared on his shoulder and seeped through his clothes.
The palace servants around were stunned and stood frozen in place, completely unable to react.
—It's no wonder they were upset. After all, who could have imagined that the delicate and beautiful Xue Pin, who was deeply favored by the emperor, would suddenly pounce on him like a mad beast and tear him apart?
Only Shen Lingjun reacted the fastest.
Although she wasn't the closest to the emperor, she was the fastest to reach him. With lightning speed and without hesitation, she grabbed a long, narrow rock from the roadside and smashed it right on Consort Xue's head!
Fearing to hurt the emperor, Shen Lingjun didn't use his full strength, but Consort Xue was still hit on the head and bled profusely, and she released the emperor's shoulder.
Shen Lingjun then kicked Xue Pin hard in the stomach.
Even if Consort Xue was crazy, she was still a petite woman. Plus, she was still dizzy from being hit earlier, so she was kicked far away.
She got up, her face covered in blood, her eyes bloodshot, her two rows of teeth exposed and bleeding, and she was making inhuman roars. Her appearance was extremely terrifying and was enough to make anyone's heart tremble.
Shen Lingjun stood protectively in front of the emperor, while Consort Xue, like a ferocious beast, bared her teeth, curled up, and pounced on the emperor again with a menacing look!
However, at this moment, the imperial guards who accompanied the emperor finally appeared.
Two skilled bodyguards descended from the sky and, after considerable effort, subdued and tied up the fiercely resisting Consort Xue.
Xue Pin seemed to have completely lost her rationality. Even after being bound hand and foot, she continued to struggle, screaming at the top of her lungs, and even tried to bite through the strips of cloth binding her.
Even the acupressure techniques used by the secret guards were ineffective, so they had no choice but to gag Consort Xue.
Shen Lingjun shouted to the palace servants who had finally come to their senses, "Quickly, fetch the imperial physician! The Emperor has been bitten!"
