Chapter 823 Betrothal Presents (Part One)
The moment Harper raised her hand to knock on the door, it immediately opened. When Mathias saw
her, he directly knelt on the ground, as if he had seen his savior.
"Lady Harper, my master... is dying!"
Astonished with the sudden news, Harper quickly went inside. She was certain that she had left
enough medicine for Felton before she departed from the imperial capital. So she couldn''t understand
why he would unexpectedly be on the verge of dying.
As soon as she entered Felton''s bedroom, she saw that he was spitting out blood. A tight frown
appeared on her face while she immediately helped him sit up. Sitting behind him, she put her hands
on his back to infuse her spiritual power into his body.
Harper immediately noticed that Felton was extremely weak, even much weaker than before. She
couldn''t help but worry about him. When she finally seeded in bringing him to a stable condition,
she stopped infusing her spiritual power and made him lie on the bed again.
"I''m sorry to have worried you," Felton softly said. Even though he had spit out blood a few minutes
ago, he still pretended as if nothing had happened.
"You used your spiritual power! Do you want to die?" Harper asked, a little enraged with the situation.
A wry smile formed on his lips. "I''m sorry. I just..."
"Lady Harper, Master received the news that you entered the Labyrinth Swamp. He was so worried and
anxious that he instantly used his spiritual power for divination—"
"Mathias!" Felton eximed, interrupting Mathias before he could say anything more. He had made a
promise to Harper that he wouldn''t use his spiritual power for divination unless it was absolutely
necessary. Since he had broken that promise, he actually knew that he should take the consequences.
"Never use it again! For the time being, your body can''t bear the side effects which is caused by the
spiritual power," Harper stated with conviction.
Felton nodded his head and asked, "Have you found anything from your trip to the South Kingdom?"
"Yes, I found a solution. Perhaps, the rest of the Qin n could be saved. But I can''t tell you yet if it
works or not unless I give it a try," Harper firmly said.

"What solution? Is it dangerous?" Felton anxiously asked. If there was any risk, he would dissuade
Harper from trying it. Now that she was the only direct descendant of the Qin n who was still alive,
she couldn''t endanger herself.
"There is a Death Pool in the ancient dwelling of the Qin n. If we are baptized in the Death Pool, our
bodies can be refined and our marrows can be cleaned. After the baptism, our bodies will be able to
bear the side effects caused by our spiritual power. That''s why you must hold on, at least for a little bit
longer. Now that I''m so close to a solution, you can''t give up," Harper said with so much concern while
staring at Felton.
"Death Pool? It''s really not a good name, don''t you think? Is it risky to use the Death Pool?" Felton said
with a smile.
"Whatever we do, there will always be some kind of danger. But we''re not the kind of people who are
afraid of taking risks. At worst, we''ll die in the process. But are we just going to be afraid when there''s a
chance that we may achieve what we want?" Harper calmly said with a smile, as if she was just talking
about a casual topic. She then gave a box to Mathias and said,
"This is the medicine that I''ve just developed. The pills are suitable for his physique. Make him take one
pill in the white bottle every day and one pill in the red bottle every three days. After he had taken every
single pill in both bottles, he wouldn''t need to take medicine anymore. Just keep a close watch on him
and never let him use his spiritual power again. If he dares to attempt in using it once more, you can
knock him out and I''ll forgive you!"
The expression on Felton''s face immediately froze when he heard that. "Hey, I won''t use my spiritual
power again. You don''t need to tell Mathias those things."
"On the contrary, yes, I need to tell him that. You''ve always been so disobedient. If anything happens
again, you may try to use your spiritual power. If you then die, where can I find you? Please don''t cause
me any more trouble," Harper worriedly said. She then paused, thinking about it for a while before
continuing, "Just forget it. I think it will be safer to take you with me. This time, I''m going to the Great
Jade Kingdom for the first Heavenly Book which is currently in the hands of Rndo."
Felton agreed with utmost conviction. "The Heavenly Book belongs to the Qin n. Of course we
should take it back. But I''m afraid it won''t be easy to take anything from Rndo."
"When I was in the South Kingdom, Rndo hadmanded Miguel to give me half of his copy of the
Heavenly Book and invite me to the Great Jade Kingdom. I''m sure he must want to know the contents
of the Heavenly Book as well. Since I''ve been on good terms with him, I think he''ll agree in letting me
have a look at the Heavenly Book. In return, I can tell him its contents."
"No! You can''t do that! How can you tell the contents of the Heavenly Book to an outsider?" Felton
firmly stated.
"The actual records on the Heavenly Book have to be interpreted in a specific way. I will only tell him
the general information on them. Don''t worry. I will never tell the secrets of the Qin n to any
outsider," Harper said with a faint smile.
"Rndo is no less cunning than Prince Matthew. I''m afraid your trip to the Great Jade Kingdom—"
"I have you and Matthew by my side. Both of you will apany me this time. After all, you are a
member of the Qin n. Once I get the Heavenly Book from Rndo, I will have to go north to the
Wonder Kingdom. The half of the Sacred Seal in there is of great importance," Harper said in a rxed
tone.
Felton fell silent. For countless years, they had been looking for the other half of the Sacred Seal in the
Wonder Kingdom, but they had never found it. During that time, Kile had even rummaged the entire
pce for their sake. But still, the Sacred Seal was nowhere to be found. Thus, for the longest time, the
Sacred Seal in the Wonder Kingdom had been their biggest problem.
"We''ll find it this time."
"Yes, we will. Wherever the king of the Wonder Kingdom is hiding it, we''re going to find it. There is
actually some kind of connection between the Sacred Seals. No matter what secret ce he''s currently
hiding it, the other half can sense it," Harper said, taking out the other half of the Sacred Seal.
As soon as Harper came back from Felton''s house, she saw Barry waiting for her at the gate. The
moment he saw her, he walked up to her and said, "Your Highness, I''m here to offer the betrothal
presents."
