Tearing the Prince's Clothes after Withdrawing Marriage
Chapter 1261 - 1260: Could it be, it was all an act just now?

Chapter 1261: Chapter 1260: Could it be, it was all an act just now?

Lan Fan suddenly laughed and said, "Rootless Water is naturally a good thing, but here in Lingjiu Hall, there are even better things."

With a wave of his hand, not allowing anyone a chance to argue, he stepped toward the back of the statue.

"The ice pool of Lingjiu Hall is a sacred object of the Lan Family, no Rootless Water can match its sanctity. Your Majesty, let’s use the water from the ice pool!"

Chu Wang held the Sacred Bowl in his hands, and the Prince had been watching closely, with no opportunity for Chu Wang to tamper with the Sacred Bowl.

As for the ice pool, who could touch it?

Approach just a bit, and the cold Qi will cause one’s blood and energy to churn violently!

The Prince almost laughed.

The water from the ice pool is indeed excellent, let’s see what tricks they have this time!

Chu Wang’s expression was solemn.

Everyone was eager and impatient.

The Prince personally held Chu Wang’s hand: "Fourth Brother, let us go witness this sacred moment together!"

Without further explanation, he took him by the hand and walked toward the back of the statue.

Lingjiu Hall is usually forbidden to outsiders, but today, in order to have witnesses, the officials also followed along.

Indeed, the ice pool is a sacred object, causing one’s chest to writhe with the upheaval of blood and Qi without even being near it.

Chu Jiangnan couldn’t get through and stopped well in advance.

Chu Wang also couldn’t get through; he was still recovering from serious injuries.

"It seems the rumors that the Fourth Prince was injured some time ago are true."

The Prince showed concern, and conveniently, took the Sacred Bowl from his hand.

"Fourth Brother, just wait here! I’m afraid only Mr. Lan can approach this ice pool."

No one could refute this statement.

Feng Yexuan and Chu Qianli took a few more steps forward, and the True Qi within their bodies also began to surge chaotically.

In the end, only Lan Fan, holding the Sacred Bowl, got close to the edge of the ice pool.

As he crouched down, Lan Fan’s vision darkened, and he nearly fell headfirst!

This damned ice pool! Even he couldn’t approach it!

If it weren’t for the fact that he practiced the martial arts of the Lan Family from the beginning, he would have fallen into the ice pool by now!

Lan Qing faced the ice pool day after day; could it really not affect him at all?

He dared not linger, hastily scooped up half a bowl of water, and hurried back.

Despite forcefully circulating his energy to suppress the churning blood Qi in his chest, his face was still a few shades paler.

But at this moment, everyone’s attention was focused on the blood recognition ritual; hardly anyone paid attention to Lan Fan’s pale face.

Chu Qianli glanced at Chu Jiangnan, and although hesitant, still stretched out her fingertip.

Chu Jiangnan was composed and extended his finger too.

This composure made both the Prince and Lan Fan somewhat doubtful.

Could it be that even the Emperor was kept in the dark about this matter? Was it a ploy solely of Prince Jing and Chu Qianli?

"Your Majesty, Miss Chu, forgive me."

Lan Fan waved his long finger.

Without even the opportunity to pass a knife, two drops of blood had already fallen from the fingertips of Chu Qianli and Chu Jiangnan!

All eyes around were intently focused on those two drops of blood in the water.

Those who were too far away to see clearly were closely observing everyone’s expressions, hoping to discern the answer from their faces.

However, Chu Wang, who was initially too impatient to stay calm, was now quietly looking at the bowl.

Compared to the impulsive and irritable Prince Jing from before, the current Prince Jing seemed to have returned to normal.

The Prince couldn’t help feeling a bit inexplicably uneasy.

How come it felt like the irritable Prince Jing from earlier was just an act?

Could it be...

Silence!

A silence as heavy as death!

In the silence, a steady voice arose: "Congratulations to Master! Congratulations to Lili, at last, you have acknowledged your ancestry and returned to your family!"
