The new Orchid Sea, located at the border of Xinlan Town and Shuixiu Town in City C, is a famous tourist attraction in City C. Due to factors such as climate and geographical environment, the petals swayed by the wind can be seen in the Orchid Sea during all months except for the coldest two.

After checking out of the hotel, Ye Yuqiao used the Nether King's Power and instantly brought Chen Hao into the sea of flowers.

Seeing the ocean made up of a vast expanse of purple petals all around them, Chen Hao and Ye Yuqiao were instantly captivated by the beautiful scenery before them. Butterflies danced among the colorful flowers, with a refreshing floral fragrance pervading the air, making one feel intoxicated and exhilarated.

If they weren't anxious about Tang Jing's condition, Chen Hao would definitely have embraced Ye Yuqiao in his arms, indulged in the beautiful scenery with her, and then compared whether the blossoming flowers or Ye Yuqiao were more beautiful.

"Strange!" Ye Yuqiao suddenly furrowed her brow, "Boyfriend, do you sense anything unusual?"

Chen Hao nodded, looking around as he said, "Now is the season when the flowers are in full bloom, supposedly the best time to enjoy the flower sea within a year, yet today there's not a single person here?"

At that moment, several colorful butterflies flew towards Chen Hao and Ye Yuqiao.

The two exchanged glances, smiling gently.

"Yuqiao, you are so beautiful!" Chen Hao, mesmerized, sighed as he watched Ye Yuqiao surrounded by a group of beautiful butterflies.

Ye Yuqiao smiled shyly, then put her slender, fair hands on Chen Hao's shoulders, closed her eyes, and whispered, "Boyfriend, will you bring me back here once everything's settled?"

"Of course!" Chen Hao nodded in agreement, and then couldn't help but kiss Ye Yuqiao.

Kissing in such a beautiful and romantic sea of flowers was such a wonderful thing.

Regrettably, the delightful sensation was fleeting; after just a few seconds, Ye Yuqiao pushed Chen Hao away, took a few deep breaths with her eyes closed, and said, "Boyfriend, I like you, but let's go find Tang Jing and Xie Xiaofeng first, we'll come back here later."

Her voice was as delicate as the whispers of flowers in the breeze.

Chen Hao grunted in acknowledgment, then suddenly bent down to sweep Ye Yuqiao up in a bridal carry and began to run forward with her in his arms.

Ye Yuqiao hooked her arms tightly around Chen Hao's neck, smiling dazedly, somewhat lost in a world of flowers and romance.

After running a few steps and seeing no one around, Chen Hao simply used Qinggong, moving forward with footsteps light as if skimming over the flowers like a dragonfly.

Half a minute later, Chen Hao had carried Ye Yuqiao to the entrance of the flower sea. Unexpectedly, the gate at the entrance was tightly closed, with overgrown weeds making it look desolate and deserted.

"Are they not open today?" Chen Hao asked with a furrowed brow, gently placing Ye Yuqiao down.

"With the weeds that tall in front of the gate, it seems like it hasn't been open for a while."

"Then how did Xie Xiaofeng and the others get in?"

"That's probably why Tang Jing had an accident!" Ye Yuqiao squinted her eyes and, moving closer to Chen Hao, looped her arm through his, "There must be some special reason for the closure of the Orchid Sea. Xie Xiaofeng and Tang Jing definitely wanted to come in to check out the situation, and then Tang Jing met with trouble."

"Are we in danger too now that we've come in?"

Ye Yuqiao shook her head, about to say that they should be safe when suddenly she coughed and spat out a mouthful of bright red blood.

"Yuqiao, what's wrong?"

"Uh!" Ye Yuqiao let out a pained cry, then bent over and vomited another pool of blood onto the ground, afterwards saying hoarsely, "Boyfriend, my stomach hurts so much!"

"Ah!" Chen Hao panicked, frantic, "What do we do, what do we do?"

"Boyfriend, quickly use Nether Vision to see if there's anything unclean inside my stomach." Ye Yuqiao spoke weakly while continuing to spit blood.

Chen Hao immediately activated the Nether Vision Technique in his left eye, and after two seconds, his gaze penetrated Ye Yuqiao's clothes and skin to see inside her abdominal cavity.

"Ah!" Chen Hao let out a shock, seeing countless worm-like creatures as small as grains of rice wriggling inside Ye Yuqiao's organs, gnawing at them.

If it weren't for the Nether Vision, Chen Hao would never have detected these strange creatures.

"Don't worry, I'm fine!" Ye Yuqiao said, her face deathly pale. Then, closing her eyes, she activated the Nether King's Power within her body and exterminated those creatures.

Half a minute later, Ye Yuqiao straightened up, smiled at Chen Hao, and said, "Silly boy, don't worry, your Yuqiao is okay now."

Looking at the pale smile on Ye Yuqiao's face, Chen Hao's heart ached silently.

"I'll infuse some Yang Energy into you." Chen Hao said.

"Don't!" Ye Yuqiao shook her head repeatedly, "My mouth tastes of blood, I'm afraid to kiss you."

Before Ye Yuqiao could finish speaking, Chen Hao suddenly moved in and kissed her.

Two minutes later, their lips parted. Chen Hao, caressing Ye Yuqiao's now somewhat rosier cheeks, said, "Silly girl, how could I ever disdain you? Besides, kissing you is a beautiful and enviable thing, always has been, always will be—I would never miss each chance to kiss you."

Ye Yuqiao smiled timidly, then reached out her arms and threw herself into Chen Hao's embrace, enjoying the warmth of Chen Hao's chest and the sense of security and belonging it brought her.

"Tang Jing must have encountered the same situation as me," Ye Yuqiao said softly.

"Yeah!" Chen Hao nodded slightly, "That must be the case! Girlfriend, where do you think those bugs came from?"

"It's too early to tell right now, let's go save Tang Jing first!"

"Yeah!"

"Boyfriend!" Ye Yuqiao suddenly grabbed Chen Hao's hand, "I want you to carry me on your back!"

After laughing, Chen Hao hoisted Ye Yuqiao onto his back, then leaped forward, jumping over the sealed entrance of the flower sea scenic area.

Five minutes later, Chen Hao, with Ye Yuqiao on his back, arrived at a village near the flower sea, where Xie Xiaofeng was waiting for them at the village entrance.

Seeing Chen Hao, Xie Xiaofeng hastily waved and shouted, "Damn it, I'm here, hurry! Tang Jing has been vomiting blood nonstop!"

Then, Xie Xiaofeng led Chen Hao and Ye Yuqiao into the village to the front door of a simple house.

"You're finally back!" a middle-aged man waiting at the door said to Xie Xiaofeng, looking extremely anxious. After glancing at Chen Hao and Ye Yuqiao, he pointed toward a basin on the living room table, "She's vomited quite a lot of blood while you were gone!"

"Where is Tang Jing? We know how to save her!" Chen Hao asked urgently.

The middle-aged man suddenly looked astonished, "Are you serious?"

Chen Hao looked towards Ye Yuqiao and said, "She was vomiting blood just now, but she's already better."

"Tang Jing is lying in the room inside!" Xie Xiaofeng said, then led Chen Hao and Ye Yuqiao into a room.

In the room.

"Cough, cough!" Tang Jing just happened to vomit another pool of blood, and then looked up weakly at Chen Hao and Ye Yuqiao, "Damn it, Yuqiao, you guys have come!"

"Tang Jing, I'm sorry we're late," Ye Yuqiao strode forward, sat on the edge of the bed, and hugged Tang Jing tightly.

"Yuqiao, I thought I wouldn't be able to wait for you guys alive!" Tang Jing cried.

Ye Yuqiao gently patted Tang Jing's back to soothe her, "It's okay now, I'll cure you right away."

After finishing her words, Ye Yuqiao gently laid Tang Jing down on the bed, then tightly gripped Tang Jing's left hand with her right hand.

"Tang Jing, this might be a bit uncomfortable, I'm sorry you'll have to endure it for a while."

Tang Jing smiled at Ye Yuqiao.

At this moment, the middle-aged man also approached inside the room.

"Boyfriend, you guys go out first. I don't feel comfortable with strangers around," Ye Yuqiao's voice echoed in Chen Hao's mind.

"Yeah!" Chen Hao agreed, and then he, Xie Xiaofeng, and the middle-aged man left the room.

After Chen Hao closed the door, Ye Yuqiao closed her eyes and transferred the Nether King's Power into Tang Jing.

"Hiss!" Tang Jing let out a painful hiss, her expression pained. She felt an extremely cold power invading her body, the chill seeping into her bones, making her shiver uncontrollably.

"Tang Jing, just hang in there a little longer!"

"Erg!" Tang Jing suddenly let out a sharp scream, her complexion turning iron blue as the Nether King's Power frozen her internal organs.

Outside, upon hearing a sudden scream from the room, the middle-aged man flinched, then asked Chen Hao, "Young man, can you really cure the young lady's illness inside?"

Chen Hao nodded.

"Wuu wuu!" The middle-aged man suddenly cried out, "If only we had found you guys earlier, my daughter could have been saved too."

Chen Hao was taken aback, looking at Xie Xiaofeng with a bewildered surprise.

Xie Xiaofeng sighed and patted the middle-aged man's back, consoling in a low voice, "Uncle Huang, don't be sad, we can't bring back the dead, please try to find peace."

After that, Xie Xiaofeng looked at Chen Hao and explained, "A year ago, Uncle Huang's daughter suffered the same condition as Tang Jing is today, but they couldn't cure her. It wasn't only Uncle Huang's family, many households around here have suffered this misfortune!"

Chen Hao was shocked, and after a moment of thought, asked, "Is it all because they went to that flower sea?"

"Exactly!" The middle-aged man, addressed as Uncle Huang by Xie Xiaofeng, suddenly raised his head and said. After wiping his tears, he told Chen Hao that around this time last year, several villagers successively contracted a strange disease that caused them to vomit blood and die. Not long after, doctors from the city came to examine them and found one of the villagers was bleeding rapidly in his organs and died before he could be saved.

After half a month of investigation by the doctors in the village, since not a single villager had recovered, the doctors were driven out by the angry relatives of the deceased.

A few days later, the government sent Uncle Huang's daughter who was a forensic scientist in the city to the village, hoping she could do both the villagers' ideological work and investigate the disease that was spreading like a plague.
