Upon hearing the news of the king’s poisoning, Liao Ning’s anxiety escalated. Her intuition had been correct—something significant had transpired.
Closing her door, she turned to Liao Nai, her voice filled with urgency. “Don’t act recklessly. Remember to prioritize your safety and do not defy the empire.” Liao Nai asked anxiously, “Auntie, what’s happening?”
“Focus on protecting yourself. If someone tries to capture me, do not resist, understand?” Liao Ning crouched down, gripping Liao Nai’s shoulders tightly, her gaze locked on him.
When he failed to respond, Liao Ning repeated her question. “Do you understand?”
Fear evident in his eyes, Liao Nai nodded.
In that very moment, the door was forcefully thrown open. Loya, supported by her maid, glared at Liao Ning. “Seize her! She’s the one who poisoned the king!”

rlWvo guards swiftly advanced, while Liao Nai transformed into his wolf form and positioned himself in front of Liao Ning.
“Liao Nai!” Liao Ning stepped forward, shaking her head at him. “Remember what you promised me earlier.”
“No!” Liao Nai bared his fangs, prepared to attack at a moment’s notice.
Liao Ning patted his head, attempting to soften her voice. “Remember what
Auntie told you. You made a promise to me.”
Witnessing Liao Nai in his wolf form, the guards raised their weapons, ready for a confrontation.
Liao Nai was poised to leap forward but was halted by Liao Ning.
She whispered in his ear, “Escape is not an option. You are my only hope now. Go find him.”
Before she could finish her sentence, an anesthetic dart pierced through the air, finding its mark in Liao Nai’s body. The boy collapsed to the ground, wearing a displeased expression.
Liao Ning helped Liao Nai back up, hearing Loya sneer. “I know you’re skilled fighters, and I’ve prepared for this. If you don’t want to be anesthetized again, you’d better come with us willingly.”
Loya was supported by her entourage. “Don’t worry, the King favors the little one. As long as you cooperate, I won’t harm him.”
Liao Ning gently set Liao Nai down on the ground and stared at Loya with cold determination. She shouldn’t have shown mercy to her enemies. She shouldn’t have spared Zhu Fei’s life.
But now, with her and Liao Nai in Loya’s clutches, she had no choice but to yield.
Guided by the guards, Liao Ning was led into the basement prison.
As the basement door creaked open, a putrid stench assaulted their senses, accompanied by the distant growls of unknown creatures.
The corridor was dimly lit, and Liao Ning could feel countless eyes fixed upon her as she passed by each cell.
Every pair of eyes emitted a different gleam, clearly indicating that these were no ordinary inmates.

Loya couldn’t help but smile. “How does it feel? The environment is quite pleasant, isn’t it? Not everyone has the privilege of being held in such a VIP cell.”
“There are no laws in the empire? They can imprison me like this?” Liao Ning fought to suppress the anger simmering within her. She knew that it was all part of Loya’s scheme.
From the ancient recipes she shared, to the green kale, and finally the poisoning of the king—every step was interconnected. It was evident that Loya had planned meticulously, intent on eliminating Liao Ning.
“The law?” Loya regarded Liao Ning with a half-smile. “The King lies in a coma after being poisoned by you. I consumed your kale yesterday and was poisoned as well. I barely escaped death.”
Liao Ning clenched her fists, her gaze fixed on Loya. “My ancient food is not poisonous. The staff at the event location can vouch for that. And there were viewers in the livestream room who witnessed it. You can’t frame me like this.”
“How dare you mention them?” Loya’s face drew closer as she narrowed her eyes. “All the staff in the livestream room were poisoned by your kale yesterday, and none of them survived.”
Her words struck Liao Ning like a dagger, disbelief filling her eyes. “No, that’s impossible! How could they all be dead? It can’t be true!”
“It’s not just them,” Loya stepped back, smoothing her disheveled skirt. “There were also netizens who followed along and made the green kale recipe. Oh, the poor netizens. I wonder how many of them are now hospitalized.”
Liao Ning’s heart sank as the weight of the situation pressed down on her. The realization hit her hard—her innocence was being manipulated, her passion for ancient delicacies turned into a weapon. And innocent lives had paid the price..
