Chapter 400
399, Poisonous Insect Poison (6 Updates)
Xie Yu cried out in pain.
Marquise screamed, “Yuyu!”
“Second Brother!”
“Second Brother!”
Xie Qian and Xie Rong called out urgently.
Even though he was married and had his own children, he remained the son whom his mother doted on, the younger brother cared for by his elder brother, and the elder brother admired by his younger brother.
Seeing Xie Yu sweating profusely with veins bulging on his forehead, it was obvious something was squirming underneath.
“…”
Upon seeing this, Xie Rong reached out and touched it roughly.
“It’s a Poisonous Insect!” Xie Qian announced solemnly.
Although his body was also hot, he didn’t feel uncomfortable; instead, he felt extremely good, as if his pain was being soothed and healed by medicine.
With trembling hands, the Marquise commanded, “Rongrong, go to the door and order, nobody is allowed to approach, and nobody is allowed to enter the room!”
Xie Rong nodded and quickly went to give instructions to the housekeeper.
Marquise then told Xie Qian, “Go bring over the brazier, and also bring a dagger!”
Xie Qian immediately complied, not daring to delay.

Marquise reached out and stripped off all of Xie Yu’s clothes, and it was clear that something was moving under his skin, wriggling in visible lines.“Mother!” Xie Yu called out softly.
He was in extreme pain.
“Don’t be scared, don’t be scared!” the Marquise whispered soothingly, telling herself to stay calm.
After a moment’s thought, she took out the last medicine pill.
It was originally intended as a gift for the emperor to secure a better future for her son, but now, she was reluctant to part with it.
For so many years, she only knew her son was unwell, having seen countless doctors and Imperial Physicians, yet no one could tell he had been poisoned by a Poisonous Insect. Today, after taking the medicine pill given by Nuannuan, it forced the Poisonous Insects out.
And judging by the speed of the insects’ movement, they seemed to fear the medicine.
“Mmm!” Xie Yu felt a sweet, fishy taste in his throat.
He wanted to vomit.
Xie Rong immediately brought over a basin.
Xie Yu vomited into the basin all at once, bringing up blood mixed with wriggling worms.
Although he was still in pain, he felt much better in his chest.
Xie Qian brought the dagger, and the Marquise took it, pulling Xie Yu’s hand and making a cut on his wrist.
Blood flowed out, and the Poisonous Insects crawled out with it.
Seeing this, the Marquise quickly calmed down, made another cut on his other wrist, and fed him the last medicine pill.
“Mother, this…” Xie Yu spoke softly.
The Marquise didn’t say a word but made Xie Yu swallow it.
Xie Yu nodded.
He swallowed the medicine pill.
This time, the pain was even more intense. He vomited several mouthfuls of blood until there were no more Poisonous Insects in the vomited blood.
Looking at the wrists, the wounds were still bleeding, but no more Poisonous Insects were coming out, and there were no longer any signs of movement in his body.
Despite bleeding and vomiting blood, which should have caused his complexion to pale and his body to weaken, his face surprisingly flushed with color. He felt an inexhaustible strength throughout his body, his blood surged inside him, and overwhelmed by the sensation, he paid no heed to anything else and sat down cross-legged to meditate and cultivate his Inner Strength.
Xie Qian, Xie Rong, and the Marquise were also drenched in sweat but persisted in knocking the Poisonous Insects into a jar, sealing the lid tightly.
“You need to sit down and meditate to cultivate your Martial Arts!” the Marquise ordered firmly.
She had been weighed down for many years, but at that moment, she felt an unprecedented lightness.
She knew that the medicine pills her daughter had brought back were unparalleled elixirs.
They could detoxify from the Poisonous Insect Poison, treat conditions, and even enhance Inner Strength.
Xie Qian and Xie Rong sat aside to meditate and cultivate their Martial Arts.
Although the Marquise’s Martial Arts were not strong and her Inner Strength was slight, she also sat down to meditate.
She was the first to open her eyes; noticing her three sons looked flushed with a misty aura surrounding them, the Marquise sat quietly and waited, pondering who could have planted the Poisonous Insect Poison and for how long it had been there.
Did her grandchildren also fall victim to it?
