Shocking Venomous Consort: Frivolous Miss
Chapter 78 - Princess, Star of MisfortuneChapter 78: Princess, Star of Misfortune
Once Lan Xinyu put away her whip, she moved swiftly forward. Shu Yuanfeng and Pei Qianqian, who were standing behind her, exchanged glances and shook their heads helplessly before following after her.
Ling Chuxi was completely unaware that Lan Xinyu was on her tail. At present, she and Ling Yichen stood by a steep rocky cliff. They were making preparations to pick a Stone Lotus Flower.

“It’ll be fine,” replied Ling Chuxi in a relaxed manner with a smile. She gathered her Battle Qi in the palm of her hand and held onto the lower stem of the Stone Lotus Flower. After using some strength, she managed to pull it out by the root. Once she pulled it out, she quickly put the Stone Lotus Flower into a wooden box made of jade and sealed it. If a herb such as the Stone Lotus Flower was not sealed away in preservation, its medicinal properties would be largely reduced.
When she was done collecting the herb, Ling Chuxi looked over at the rocky cliffs on the other side. After passing through this steep cliff wall, there would be plain fields ahead. This journey was also a trial for the academy students’ skills as one could slowly leap over this steep cliff wall with the help of the rocks protruding from the stone wall if their skills were good enough.
Ling Chuxi and Ling Yichen leapt and landed lithely onto pieces of rocks jutting out of the cliff wall and made it to the other side very quickly. Though harsh, this kind of environment was not considered a substantial challenge to Ling Chuxi and Ling Yichen.
Not long after both of them left the cliff wall, the figures of Lan Xinyu and the rest of her posse entered from the other side. Lan Xinyu snorted condescendingly and leapt without breaking a sweat. Her feet landed on the rocks jutting out along the cliff wall as she crossed over to the other side easily. Shu Yuanfeng and Pei Qianqian followed closely behind her.
Just as Lan Xinyu was keenly pursuing Ling Chuxi, the teachers who were in charge of registration suddenly received a piece of news outside the canyon. This piece of news made quite a few people frown.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmToday, the fifth princess had entered the White Stone Canyon! Many faces would change at the mention of this fifth princess. Her name was renowned. But, don’t misunderstand. This fame wasn’t for anything good. She was practically a star of misfortune. She was proud, stubborn, cruel, callous and unreasonable. However, what made people tremble the most was that not only was she was an expert in using poison, but her cultivation wasn’t weak by any means and to date, she had successfully obtained the emperor’s affections. Meeting her, would be the very symbol of bad luck.
Why did this fifth princess think of coming to White Stone Canyon on this day? Was she here to look for something or was there some other reason? Why did her visit coincide perfectly with White Stone Academy’s training period? Those who understood the fifth princess well knew the reason behind her decision. This was no coincidence. Rather, the princess was bored and purposely set aside time to meet the White Stone Academy’s students in training for her own amusement!
“Pass along the message to take a long way around to avoid the princess should anyone encounter her. Inform as many people as you can.” The teacher-in-charge of leading the students stated this directive decisively. He did not wish to see his own students mysteriously crippled by the fifth poisonous princess. That’s right, this princess had another name — which was, Fifth Poisonous Princess.
It was a shame that once the leading teacher obtained this news and passed it along, it was already too late.
Meanwhile, Ling Chuxi was coldly observing at a lavishly dressed young maiden who was smiling and swaying back and forth unscrupulously as though she were a thug. A new student from White Stone Academy was rolling about by her feet in pain. There were a few other extraordinarily dressed youths, both male and female alike, who were standing behind the lavishly dressed young maiden. They were all pointing and laughing at the person who was rolling on the floor in agony.
“Is it painful? Then beg me. Kneel down and beg me. I’ll give you the antidote.” The lavishly dressed young maiden laughed loudly and extremely arrogantly.
