Zhou Ling frowned as he asked, “Do you have a way to awaken Liao Xi? Madame Sam has been in a coma for years, and it seems unlikely that she would regain consciousness. What do you plan to do?”

Liao Ning chose not to divulge the information about the Liao Family’s bloodline to Zhou Ling. She knew that if he realized the risks she was about to take, he would undoubtedly try to dissuade her. However, she needed to take this chance.

“I might have a potential solution. I want to give it a try. If Liao Xi wakes up, she wouldn’t want her daughter to be in danger, and she might come with me.”

Seeing Zhou Ling’s concerned expression, Liao Ning reassured him, “I have extensive knowledge of ancient delicacies, and these are my own recipes, after all. I just want to attempt it.”

After contemplating for a moment, Zhou Ling responded, “Alright, I’ll do my best to sneak you in, but promise me not to take any unnecessary risks, okay?” Although Liao Ning nodded earnestly, she was already prepared to face the dangers ahead.

That night, the Elder Prince assumed the role of manager, replacing Loya, and he seized the opportunity to grant Liao Ning some freedom. She could now move about the castle, albeit without access to the Al or the local area network.

“I’ve already instructed the guards to locate Sami. If they find your nephew, I’ll inform you immediately,” the Elder Prince reassured her with a smile. “Don’t worry, she won’t be able to escape from Planet Dynasty. We will definitely find her.”

Liao Ning smiled and nodded, but a day had passed, and she remained oblivious to the current situation.

“There’s another matter I need your assistance with,” the Elder Prince confessed sheepishly. “There’s an Elf Elder who was poisoned in the dungeon you previously visited, and she… I was hoping you could prepare some of your ancient delicacies.”

Liao Ning’s eyes lit up upon hearing the mention of the dungeon. “An Elf Elder is poisoned? Aren’t elves skilled in creating various potions?”

The Elder Prince appeared embarrassed. Evidently, there were certain matters that couldn’t be casually disclosed. “We haven’t found an antidote for over two years. You’re allowed to move about the castle because I asked Father to grant vou a chance to see if vou can uncover the formula for the antidote.”

Liao Ning had been concerned that she wouldn’t have an opportunity to access the basement, so she readily agreed to the task.

Accompanied by the Elder Prince, Liao Ning descended into the underground prison, making her way directly to the first cell.

Upon entering, she was surprised to find that there was no foul odor lingering in the air. Instead, a mixture of various medicinal scents permeated the space. Two women lay within the cell. One possessed long golden hair and the distinctive pointed ears of the elves, with faint translucent green wings barely visible behind her back.

Liao Ning’s astonishment grew – elves were known for their pointed ears, but having wings meant this woman was more than just an elf elder.

The other woman lying on the adjacent bed was none other than Liao Xi, the individual Liao Ning had been seeking. Liao Xi appeared pale, her features displaying the signs of age, yet an air of tranquility surrounded her. However, neither woman displayed any indication of awakening.

“She is… the elder of the elves,” the Elder Prince spoke with unease. “Two years ago, she came into contact with the pollen of the Overlord Flower on the green forest planet, causing her to fall into a deep slumber. During this time, we’ve attempted numerous methods to prevent her from waking.”

Liao Ning observed the elf intently, a sense of confusion washing over her. Elves had inhabited Planet Green Forest for centuries, and even if the flower possessed toxic properties, it shouldn’t have rendered an Elf Elder unconscious. Something peculiar must be at play.

As she focused on the patterns adorning the elf’s wings, she began to notice an uncanny resemblance to the wings of insects. At that moment, a notification resounded within her mind.

[Ding! System Prompt: The host can exchange 50,000 system points for the Forced Hibernation and Awakening Method. Would you like to proceed with the exchange?]

“Why waste time with small talk?” Liao Ning grumbled inwardly.

Wait, hibernation? Liao Ning felt a spark of realization. She stared at the elf before her in disbelief.

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Forced Hibernation Method. The system will provide you with information regarding the elves.]

The formula for the antidote materialized within Liao Nings mind, accompanied by newfound knowledge about the elves.

[The elves resided on Planet Green Forest. Ordinary elves relied on plants to counteract toxins, while elven pharmacists were typically candidates for the position of elder.]

When elves interbred with individuals of other races, their offspring underwent mutations, acquiring the appearances and abilities of the other race.

[For instance, the combination of elves and insectoids would result in offspring with wings and corresponding insectoid capabilities.]

Before Liao Ning could fully process this information, she witnessed the Elder Prince gently caressing the elven woman’s hair, his eyes filled with affection and tenderness..
