This made Qu Shang tremble all over, and he finally chose to surrender.

"Qu Shang, where are you?" Jiang Xue stood there, looking at Qu Shang in confusion as he stood in an awkward posture.

What exactly happened between her and the man named Li Yi?

After going through so many things, she had already developed a pair of eyes that could see through people's hearts. Even though she couldn't see their movements clearly from the downstairs, she could tell from their postures and expressions that Qu Shang and Li Yi had an unusual relationship.

But at this moment, she had no intention of exploring the entanglement between them. Her master urgently needed life-saving medicine, but the medicine was taken away by Qu Shang, and she had to get it back.

The envelope contained grass leaf fragments, which were the precious medicinal herbs that she had entrusted Qiu Qianhuan to find!

She already had some guesses as to the purpose of this madman using these herbs to lure her here.

Jiang Xue glanced at Chu Feimo beside her, frowning, "I didn't expect that the Crown Prince of Xiyong would use such an unpresentable method."

"As long as the goal can be achieved, it doesn't matter whether the means are clever or not." Chu Feimo responded with a calm smile.

Jiang Xue didn't want to waste any more words, so she asked Qu Shang directly: "Hand over the medicine."

Qu Shang deliberately stroked her waist, pointed to the steps and said, "Since Princess Changle is here, we shouldn't talk so hastily. How about you come in and talk in detail?"

Let's go into the room and talk in detail? Jiang Xue sneered. She noticed that there was a hidden mechanism on the door. Once she entered the room, wouldn't it give the other party more opportunities?

"My purpose is very simple, which is to get back His Highness Yun Jian's herbs. There is no need to hide this matter from others. Just make it clear here." Jiang Xue said firmly.

Knowing that she would not compromise easily, Qu Shang took out an object from his arms and threw it downstairs.

Xiaochun caught it quickly and exclaimed, "Princess, this is the jade pendant of the Marquis of Zhenbei."

Fu Dong recognized at a glance that this was the thing Lu Changfeng had always worn.

Seeing the jade pendant, Jiang Xue's face suddenly changed, and a surge of anger surged in her heart. It was Qu Shang who destroyed the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion!

"Do you want to know the whereabouts of the owner of the jade pendant? Then do as I say. Otherwise, it's hard to say whether he is alive or dead." Qu Shang smiled proudly, with a cunning light flashing in his eyes, which made Li Yi frown and move his hand slowly downwards.

"Stop." Realizing that the man behind him had another idea, Qu Shang endured the pain, grabbed Li Yi's arm, and warned in a low voice.

A blush appeared on his face, making it even more difficult for Li Yi to control himself.

"Keep this in mind for now, and I'll settle it with you tonight." Li Yi's low and hoarse voice sounded in Qu Shang's ears, and then he reluctantly withdrew his hand.

"Xiaochun, you stay here. Fudong, come with me." Jiang Xue ordered decisively.

After Jiang Xue arranged everything, she took Fu Dong upstairs. When she passed by Qu Shang, she warned him in a low voice: "You know my temper. If something happens to my uncle, everyone in the Red Moon Cult will have to pay the price."

Chu Feimo listened from the side and thought Jiang Xue was just bluffing. But Qu Shang knew that this woman's threats were not empty talk.

The door closed gently, and Xiaochun stood outside, waiting anxiously, looking outside from time to time, full of worry.

As soon as she entered the room, Jiang Xue said directly to Qu Shang: "Give me the medicine first. You have the Marquis of Zhenbei as a hostage, and this herb is just a bait to me. Now that I'm here, this bait is useless to you."

"I've never seen a woman like you." Qu Shang sneered, "Jiang Xue, you are trapped in a jar now. You have no right to bargain with me."

"Really?" Jiang Xue said meaningfully, "If that were the case, your men would have attacked me at the door long ago. You still spared my life, which means you still need something from me."

"Hasn't anyone told you that smart women are not popular?" Qu Shang's smile disappeared, and he obviously didn't like having his thoughts seen through.

"Then I'll tell you, cunning men are just as annoying." Jiang Xue retorted, "Don't waste any more time, give me the medicine, and then we'll talk about your conditions."

Taking the medicine from Qu Shang, Jiang Xue immediately handed it to Fu Dong, "Okay, now tell me, why did you go to so much trouble to bring me here?"

She glanced at Chu Feimo beside her: "Do you just want to hand me over to Prince Xiyong?"

Chu Feimo was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Jiang Xue had already seen through his intentions.

"Your Highness, don't be surprised. Changle is not an unreasonable person. I understand the look in your eyes." Jiang Xue continued, "But I must remind you that you still need to consider Changle's identity carefully. Forcing things may not have good results. Be careful not to get the opposite result."

Hearing this, Chu Feimo frowned, but deep in his heart he had a desire to conquer this woman. He had seen countless women, but he had never met someone as smart as Jiang Xue.

"It's been so long, it seems you still don't understand men." Qu Shang taunted: "That's right, in addition to satisfying the prince's wish, I also hope you can hand over someone. As long as you agree, I promise to keep Zhenbei Hou safe and sound."

When Jiang Xue mentioned Zhenbei Hou, her expression became serious: "Who do you want?"

Her intuition told her that the person Qu Shang wanted was definitely not an ordinary person.

"Qu Xin." A cold smile appeared on his weird face.

"I plan to use her as a sacrifice to create an unprecedented elixir of longevity."

Jiang Xue frowned and refuted bluntly: "Are you confused from refining the elixir? Where in this world is there true immortality?"

"You won't know until you try. Qu Xin activated the power of Yinglong in Yingxia, which is exactly the material I need for alchemy. With this power, immortality is no longer a dream."

Qu Shang said: "Jiang Xue, you know why my body has become like this. This is the debt you and Xiao Yunjian owe. Now I am magnanimous and will no longer pursue your responsibility, but you have to hand over Qu Xin to me."

Once the elixir is refined, it won’t be too late to deal with Xiao Yunjian and Jiang Xue.

"The power of Yinglong can destroy the heavens and the earth. It is not something that ordinary people can control. Even if you get Qu Xin, you may not be able to use her power."

Jiang Xue was silent for a moment, and a small black spider quietly slipped out from under her sleeve and out of the room.

"Humph, why do you think Qu Xin came directly to you after leaving Ying Xia instead of returning to the Five Poison Sect?"

Because his view was blocked, Qu Shang did not notice Jiang Xue's little action and just responded with a sneer.

There seemed to be something hidden behind his words, and Jiang Xue immediately asked: "What do you mean?"

Qu Xin stayed here for a long time, but no one from the Five Poison Sect came to look for him. This made Jiang Xue suspicious. Now, after hearing what Qu Shang said, things became complicated.

"Because the Five Poison Sect no longer exists."

These words were like a bolt from the blue, shaking Jiang Xue's heart.

"Impossible. The Five Poisons have a strong foundation. How could they disappear without a trace in an instant?"
