When Zhou Ling finally received the antidote formula, he promptly sent it to Liao Ning. However, due to the abysmal signal, the message didn’t reach her until half an hour later.

Upon receiving the message, Liao Ning felt a sense of relief wash over her.

She called out to the guards, “Bring Princess Loya here and inform her that I possess the antidote!”

More than an hour passed, and Loya hadn’t anticipated Liao Ning deciphering the antidote formula so quickly. She had repeatedly approached Sami for the antidote, but he persistently rejected her, fearing that she would steal all the credit.

He had only provided her with a small quantity of the antidote, leaving her clueless on where to begin.

Now that Liao Ning held the antidote, Loya couldn’t help but feel a surge of excitement. She hurried to the prison.

“Do you truly possess the antidote formula? Are you certain?” Loya appeared anxious.

The king remained unconscious, and she needed to be the first to offer the antidote.

Liao Ning nodded. “Yes, but I have one condition.”

Loya remained silent but regarded her with an unfriendly gaze. Liao Ning understood her game-playing nature and realized she had to negotiate with her at all times.

“I intend to livestream the release of the antidote formula.”

“No!” Loya objected. “Just share the antidote formula with me, and I will assist you. I won’t break my promise!”

“No, I must reveal the formula. You mentioned that numerous individuals within the empire have been poisoned, and they cannot afford to wait for you to claim all the credit.”

Inside the cell, Liao Ning had already grasped the situation.

With Loya’s capabilities, she wouldn’t have conceived such a convoluted method of causing harm. At most, she would have resorted to making false accusations. If Loya were truly as scheming and competent as she claimed, she would have demonstrated it during her time on the capital planet, and she wouldn’t have been apprehended.

Also, Loya had no antidote, but she didn’t pass out or die after being poisoned, indicating that someone had administered the antidote.

Clearly, there was a mastermind orchestrating everything, and Loya was merely a pawn on the chessboard.

“Even if you try to shift all the blame onto me, you are the one who serves the food to the king and selects the ingredients. Do you honestly believe you can escape the consequences, Your Highness?”

Liao Ning’s interrogation frightened Loya. She wasn’t a true princess, and the king wasn’t the only one aware of this fact. If the king survived, she would retain her value. She was the true princess.

However, if the king perished, the truth would come to light, and she might become implicated by the royal family.

Seeing her hesitation, Liao Ning continued, “We have always worked together on the live-stream, and you will undoubtedly have a role in it. Additionally, there is one piece of material exclusive to the royal family, presenting an opportunity for you to showcase your worth.”

“Only the royal family possesses it? What do you want?” Loya regarded Liao Ning with suspicion.

“If you believe my proposition has merit, I can guarantee the recovery of the king and the others who were poisoned. The people of the empire will remember that it was the Princess of Dawn who brought them hope. Do you trust me?”

Liao Ning’s determination was evident. Loya pondered for a moment and decided to take the gamble.

“Alright, don’t let me down.” She turned around and instructed the guards to escort Liao Ning out of the cell.

As they returned to the surface, Liao Ning finally felt a sense of reassurance, particularly when she caught sight of Zhou Ling rushing towards her. She gave him a reassuring look, conveying the message, “Don’t worry.” Zhou Ling let out a sigh of relief.

“Princess, why did you release her?” Zhou Ling questioned.

“Enough with the talk,” Loya replied hastily. “You’re here just in time. Prepare the honey and distribute it to the people.”

“Understood!” Zhou Ling wasted no more time and swiftly headed to the storage room to retrieve the honey. He knew the antidote formula, and it appeared that Loya had made a compromise.

As they arrived at the live-stream room, Loya inquired, “Can you tell me the other ingredients you need? I’ll have someone prepare them.”

Observing that the staff in the live-stream room had all been replaced, Liao Ning felt uneasy. She struggled to speak, “I require a substantial amount of purple fire lotus petals. Ensure they are washed and delivered to me. Do not touch them!”

Emphasizing her last words, Loya rolled her eyes in response. Subsequently, she ordered someone to make the necessary preparations for the petals.

At that moment, guards entered the room, bringing in the bound Liao Nai.

Loya nodded at the guards, who pried open Liao Nai’s mouth and inserted a piece of green kale.

“What are you doing?” Liao Ning hurriedly approached.

Loya halted her. “He will be the first to receive your antidote.. Don’t even think about playing any tricks in front of me!”
