BXBX NOVEL Chapter 273 - 273: Awake
Liao Ning felt a tinge of embarrassment. It seemed that she had stumbled upon an unbelievable secret.
Noticing her gaze, the Elder Prince turned around awkwardly. “Can you awaken
“I’m not certain,” Liao Ning replied, a hint of embarrassment coloring her tone. “I’ve never come into contact with the pollen before, and it appears that she hasn’t been poisoned, or else she would have succumbed to it after two years. However, I’m willing to give it a try. Just be aware that I may need to enter and exit the prison frequently. What are your thoughts?”
Her priority was to awaken Liao Xi, and the Elder Prince presented her with an excellent opportunity.
“Of course,” the Elder Prince responded with evident delight. “I’ve explored numerous methods to aid in her recovery, but I understand that it can’t be rushed. This is the emblem of the imperial family. With it, you’ll have unrestricted access to the prison. No one will impede your movements. If you require any materials, simply inform the guards, and they will make the necessary arrangements.”
With the Bell Family’s reputation restored and the Elder Prince positioned as the favored heir to the throne, he commanded nearly everyone in the castle. Thus, he harbored no concerns about Liao Ning deviating from her task.
Liao Ning accepted the emblem, feeling reassured.
However, to ensure she wouldn’t be disturbed, she stipulated, “I have one condition. If the antidote proves successful, I do not wish to disclose the formula.”
Recalling Loya’s past actions, the Elder Prince smiled inwardly and reassured her, “Don’t worry, Loya won’t be involved in this, and I won’t allow her to come here again.”
After all, Countess Sam was present, and Loya maintained a close relationship with the Sam Family. It was possible she might act out of line.
In an effort to earn Liao Ning’s trust, the Elder Prince added, “Rest assured, I’ll expedite the search for your nephew, Liao Nai, to ensure his safety. You can focus on the antidote.”
Expressing her gratitude once more, Liao Ning watched as the Elder Prince exited the cell. She then turned her attention to studying the methods to awaken the elf.
According to the system, the elven woman had recently entered a state of hibernation. It was unlikely that the Elder Prince knew she had deliberately chosen to enter this state. The cell’s temperature had been set to a comfortable 26 QC. However, according to the system, simply raising the temperature to 30 oc and introducing the pure dew extracted from the petals of the Overlord Flower would immediately rouse her from slumber.
But Liao Ning was in no rush. Instead, she instructed the guards to gather various ingredients and antidotes. Since they were conducting the pretense of studying the antidote, they needed to maintain the appearance of a serious endeavor.
To ensure the uninterrupted study of the formula and protect the secrecy surrounding the antidote, the Elder Prince had already dismissed the caretaker from the cell, leaving Liao Ning alone. She observed the two women lying before her, contemplating which one to awaken first.
Ultimately, she clenched her teeth and decided to awaken the elves first. Liao Xi was likely an adversary, and there was a chance she might be unable to leave with her upon awakening. Liao Xi could potentially cause trouble. However, since the system had provided information about the elves, it implied that they could be of assistance.
Liao Ning adjusted the air conditioner’s temperature and carefully boiled the petals, extracting a substantial amount of pure dew.
By the time she finished, her brow glistened with perspiration, and the elves on the bed displayed signs of improvement. Their wings emitted a soft glow, suggesting that they were nearing awakening.
Had it not been for the pollen poisoning, the elf would have already roused. All Liao Ning needed to do was administer the distilled pure dew as the antidote.
She patiently waited for the pure dew to cool before gingerly placing the liquid into the woman’s mouth.
Extracting pure dew was no easy task. A considerable number of petals were required to yield just a single vial of the precious liquid. Yet, even after administering all the liquid, the woman remained devoid of any immediate
signs of awakening.
Just as Liao Ning was about to inquire if the system had provided her with a false formula, the woman’s eyes stirred upon the bed, gradually unveiling her amber irises.
Liao Ning positioned herself before her. “You’re awake? Are you feeling unwell?”
The woman regarded her intently, inquiring, “Why have you awakened me? What has happened to your nephew?”
