Chapter 483: Ling Baobao Has a Fever
"Wanwan, do you wish... to join my Snake Tribe?"
Yu Longting stared at me intensely, his voice slightly trembling, and he seemed more excited than I was.
I nodded vigorously, of course, of course!
Joining the snakes meant following their ways.
Yu Longting's eyes twinkled, and after a moment, he leaned down to kiss my forehead, "To have you as my wife in this lifetime, I could only wish for enough."
Snake Mountain was closest to City B.
To save time going to the Serpent Domain to handle matters.
Yu Longting took me back to city B to meet up with Yu Rongling.
Only after parting with Yu Longting did I realize poor Baby Rongling's condition was not optimistic.
He had taken the antidote, and the corpse poison was resolved, but his body remained very weak.
His body temperature wouldn't drop, maintaining a low fever.
"Beichen, logically speaking, after eating the antidote, Rongling should have recovered." I placed my finger on Yu Rongling's forehead, scalded by his burning temperature, and immediately frowned deeply.
Beichen sighed, pulled me to sit down on the chair beside the bed, "With the Cultivation Spiritual Garment you gave, Second Master could have lasted a long time, but he didn't want you to owe Immortal Liu too much, taking on a lot of stress from treating the innkeeper's pregnant wife. Once his body weakened, the toxins spread very fast."
"Then why didn't you contact me to inform me?" My heart was full of emotion and guilt. Yu Er normally appeared carefree, but he was actually very responsible when it mattered.
Beichen gave an implicit glance at Yu Rongling, "Initially, even I was kept in the dark, and later he absolutely refused to let me tell you, for fear of distracting you."
My throat inexplicably tightened, and suddenly my wrist was gripped tightly.
I looked down to see Yu Rongling, eyes welled with urgency, clutching my wrist, "Beichen, you dare, who allowed you to tell my sister-in-law."
"Silly Yu Er, my Lin family specializes in Alchemy." I said helplessly, "No matter how much Immortal Liu uses, for me, it is merely a matter of a few elixirs."
Yu Rongling was stunned on the spot, and after a while, he spoke in a hoarse voice filled with frustration, "Sister-in-law... why didn't you say so earlier..."
"I didn't know either, that our Yu Er would suddenly become so responsible. It was my oversight." I patted Yu Er's pitiful little head, all the while thinking of a solution.
He had been wearing the Cultivation Spiritual Garment, which seemed to have no effect on reducing Yu Er's fever at all.
High body temperature for snake tribe members could be problematic.
I must find a way to reduce little Yu Er's fever.
Yu Rongling was incredibly moved, "You acknowledge me as your brother-in-law now, wuu wuu wuu... my suffering wasn't in vain, you even praised me~ Having a child with a sister-in-law like you, is a treasure."
This dumbass, I didn't expect him to be so easily satisfied.
Just a few words of praise, and he forgot his physical discomfort, happy like a child.
"I just remembered, I have a Peach here, try eating it." Thinking of Yu Rongling's weakened body, the greatest benefit of a peach was nourishment.
Yu Rongling's fever was also due to his body being too weak to withstand the counteraction of the antidote and the corpse poison.
The six-hundred-year-old peach was originally meant as my breakfast by Yu Longting.
Luckily, I cherished the precious peach and couldn't bring myself to eat it.
At this moment, I took out the peach from my bag and handed it to Yu Rongling.
"Isn't this the Immortal Peach from the Immortal Peach Tree by the entrance of my brother's Snake Cave?"
Little Yu Er was shocked, "And... it's a six-hundred-year-old top-quality peach."
"Yes, if you still don't feel better after eating this, I will have to give you my blood to drink."
I found a small knife for cutting fruits and passed it to Yu Er, letting him be self-sufficient. Despite being weak, Yu Er still had the strength to peel his own fruit.
