When the female supporting role has a beauty system

Chapter 1154 Xuanyu 10
Sang Yue clutched his chest, feeling as if he had been struck by lightning; his chest ached dully. Now, hearing Tan You's words, he knew it was time for him to make his stance clear.

Now he is only glad that the mastermind behind the harm to Tan You is not Sang Lin, so that there is something to talk about.

Sang Yue clutched his chest and stood up: "Sang Lin acts recklessly, harming others at will for his own selfish desires. He deserves to be punished. Sentence him to a hundred years of solitary confinement in the Four Seas Prison. Are you satisfied with this punishment, fellow Daoist?"

“Of course I’m not satisfied,” Tan You sneered. “Sang Yue, although Sang Lin wasn’t the mastermind, he seriously injured me. You don’t think I’ll let this go so easily, do you?”

"I don't care about a hundred years of self-reflection, after all, it's uncertain whether we'll meet again in a hundred years." She smiled and said, "How about this, I was seriously injured and on the verge of death by Sang Lin back then, I'm a very fair person."

"Let Sang Lin be injured just as badly as I was. It's only fair that way, an eye for an eye."

The queen panicked: "How can this be..."

With a flick of her finger, Tan You summoned a bolt of lightning above the Queen's head, as if the lightning would strike her down if she dared to utter another word. Locked in by the lightning, the Queen dared not open her mouth again.

All eyes in the hall fell on Sang Lin, who was now in a difficult position. However, he had no choice; if he didn't give a satisfactory answer, his father and mother would certainly not get away with it today.

His father, King Sang Yue, had just been struck by a bolt of lightning, which had already displeased his elder brothers. If his father were to be injured as well, his brothers would likely not tolerate him either.

Sang Lin had to grit his teeth: "Your suggestion is indeed very fair."

“That’s more like it,” Tan You clapped her hands. “Back then, I was on the verge of death. I didn’t ask for much; I just wanted you to seriously injure yourself to this extent. You should know your own body.”

“I’ve been very merciful. At least you have your parents and relatives, and all sorts of elixirs. But I had nothing back then… When you think about it, it seems like I lost out big time.”

Sang Lin was afraid that Tan You would escalate the situation further, so he hurriedly agreed: "I... I'll do it right now."

As he spoke, he slapped his chest with his palm, and Sang Lin spat out a mouthful of blood. His face immediately turned ashen, and his cultivation level began to drop step by step, quickly falling to the seventh level. It looked like he was about to fall even further.

The Queen rushed over, scrambling to get Sang Lin to take the elixir. Just as Sang Lin's cultivation was about to stabilize, he suddenly spat out another mouthful of blood and fainted.

The Queen was extremely anxious: "How...how could this be? Wasn't this elixir exactly what was needed? Why isn't it working?"

The physician from the Dragon Palace stepped forward to examine the prince, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead: "Your Highness... Your Highness recently consumed the Purple Essence Grass, and its effects have not been fully refined..."

"Your Majesty, the main ingredient of the Huangyuan Pill that you gave His Highness, Xuanshuang Flower, has medicinal properties that... are incompatible with Ziyuan Grass."

The healer's voice grew softer and softer, and it felt like the queen's gaze was murderous.

The Purple Essence Grass was something she obtained from her family to help Sang Lin stabilize his cultivation level, while the Yellow Essence Pill was something she gave to Sang Lin to stabilize his cultivation level as well. But how did things turn out so badly?

Sang Lin composed himself: "What should we do now?"

Even though he was disappointed in Sang Lin, he was still his most talented son, and he would still save Sang Yue if he could. The healer thought for a moment and said, "The only thing we can do now is to let him rest quietly. We can't use any more spiritual medicines. Your Majesty, you can also use your spiritual power to nourish him. His Highness the Eighth Prince, he's not doing well right now."

Sang Lin thought for a moment: "Has the foundation been damaged?"

"The Eighth Prince's heart meridian has not been completely severed. If there is spiritual energy of the same origin to nourish him, he may recover within ten years."

Sang Lin nodded slightly, and had someone carry him away. He looked at Tan You and said, "My son has now paid the price. Are you satisfied now, fellow Daoist?"

“I consider that Sang Lin has already paid off this debt,” Tan You said, no longer pressing Sang Lin. She glanced at Jin Jiao and said, “Jin Jiao is your daughter-in-law. Tell me, how should this debt be settled?”

Sang Yue's impression of the Merfolk has plummeted. Even Jin Jiao was tricked, but who made his most prized son, Sang Lin, suffer such a loss because of the Merfolk?
Therefore, Sang Yue waved his sleeve and said, "She is a member of the Merfolk race. What does she have to do with my Dragon race?"

"Oh?" Tan You raised an eyebrow: "She and Sang Lin were deeply in love, but now that disaster is upon them, they've abandoned each other? As a person, you shouldn't take your anger out on others. Although Jin Jiao is arrogant, vicious, and domineering, your son truly loves her."

“Even if you don’t want to care about Jin Jiao, she and Sang Lin haven’t separated yet. In the end, she’s still your daughter-in-law. I won’t allow you to just wash your hands of her.”

Sang Yue understood what he meant, and he stared at Tan You: "What do you want?"

Tan You snapped her fingers: "It's so refreshing to talk to smart people. I want a piece of Gui Water Essence."

Seeing that Sang Yue didn't move, Tan You laughed: "I'm talking to you nicely now, but if you don't know what's good for you, I don't mind taking it by force. If I really let you take a walk through your treasure trove, you won't have anything left."

Sang Yue gritted his teeth: "Fine, I will offer you the essence of Gui water."

A piece of dark blue Gui Water essence was presented to Tan You, who put it away. "Now Jin Jiao and I are even. As for how you deal with Jin Jiao, that's none of my business."

Jin Jiao wiped away her tears, as if she had thought of something; "This is not fair. It was clearly Yin Yue who plotted against us, so why did Sang Lin and I pay the price, while Yin Yue got away scot-free?"

She knew that she would soon find it difficult to move an inch in the Dragon Palace, but she wanted to take someone down with her even in her dying moments. Now, Jin Jiao truly hated Yin Yue. Everything was Yin Yue's doing behind the scenes, so why was Yin Yue still doing well?

"Of course she has to pay her price," Tan You sneered, casually pulling Yin Yue over. Yin Zheng and Hua Ling pleaded for mercy, and Tan You gave a soft "hmm." The two men's expressions immediately changed, and they dared not step forward again.

Yin Yue was clever after all. She looked up at Tan You and said, "Even if you kill me, Qi Jue will not let you go..."

“Then you don’t need to worry about it,” Tan You said, pinching her chin with two fingers. “I’ll give you two choices: either you commit suicide, and the grudge between us will be over.”

Yin Yue's tears streamed down her face. Just as she was about to speak, Hua Ling rushed over: "We choose the second path, Your Highness. She was also deceived. She didn't mean to harm you. If you want to hit or kill, come at me. Please give her a way out!"

As she spoke, she kept kowtowing to Tan You, and soon bloodstains appeared on the floor tiles.

Tan You chuckled, glanced at Jin Jiao's mother, then at Hua Ling: "They are both mothers, but there are differences."
