Uchiha Hikaru's speculation about Shui Lingboyang was only an initial thought. He felt that if Shui Lingboyang were ever to treat her people poorly, some serious illness might develop within her body.
That was only one of his thoughts. In fact, Uchiha Hikaru had another idea about the matter: there was still a seal inside her body. If that seal remained unbroken, the toxins within her body would grow increasingly severe.
The toxins in Shui Lingboyang's body had actually been caused by Uchiha Hikaru's own carelessness. When they had first fought the wild beasts, he had not considered so much. Thus, when he had gone to collect those lingzhi mushrooms, some of his power had seeped into them.
But unexpectedly, once the wild beasts had eaten all that spiritual power, the toxins within them had slowly begun to invade Shui Lingboyang's body. Shui Lingboyang had never noticed any of this.
Yet by the time Uchiha Hikaru discovered everything as he was leaving, it was already too late. He could only see whether the other powers in his body could erode those toxins away.
If his abilities could not eliminate most of the toxins in her body, then only Little Beauty could step forward and help her resolve these problems.
However, he had not told Shui Lingboyang the truth because he feared the matter would put too much pressure on her. That was why he had kept it hidden.
If he told Shui Lingboyang the truth, his mind would become utterly chaotic. How could he then fulfill Queen Your Majesty's request to wipe out all those wild beasts?
Moreover, his position was rather precarious now. Although the Second Princess had already been eliminated and there were no longer any immediate worries,
that did not mean others would not compete with her
