Seeing Jun Jianchou looking at him with complicated emotions, Shen Jinchen asked anxiously:

"What kind of curse has he been under?"

"The Love Return Gu! She has the mother Gu, while you should have the child Gu. It seems your dear sister knows quite a bit about your relationship."

Jun Jianchou was at a loss for words to describe his feelings, but he had to say what needed to be said.

What exactly is a "Love Return Gu"?

Cen Xi looked at Jun Jianchou and asked.

"This Gu is also called the Heartless Gu, which means that after two months, you will hate each other, eventually love and kill each other, and die at each other's hands."

Jun Jianchou glanced at Cen Xi and Shen Jinchen and explained.

"You mean he won't forget his love for me in the end, and I won't have any feelings for her anymore, so we'll end up being mortal enemies? And then you stab me in the back, I stab you in the back, and we'll disappear from this world?"

Cen Xi: I've never even heard of this kind of Gu before. I'm both amused and exasperated.

"What proof do you have that I've also been bewitched?"

Shen Jinchen's pupils contracted, clearly disbelieving the result.

"This kind of Gu, after the mother Gu is implanted, must be planted with the offspring Gu within an hour for it to be effective. I heard that Shen Qinghua laughed madly and cursed you before she died, so it's pretty certain that she has already planted the Gu on you. If you don't believe me, you can check your pulse yourself to see if there are any signs of being infected by the Gu. Or I can help you."

Although Jun Jianchou spoke in a serious tone, one could still vaguely sense a hint of schadenfreude.

Shen Jinchen clearly didn't believe it, but after taking his pulse, he was speechless. He couldn't understand when Shen Qinghua had put the curse on him.

Today, there was only physical contact when I helped Shen Youji deal with Shen Qinghua; at other times, we didn't even touch.

Did Shen Qinghua plan so well? Did she know he would support her father?

"Speechless now, if you want to get rid of the Gu, you must go to Miao territory in person to find the Gu King and Gu Queen and have the Love Return Gu in your bodies absorbed. Otherwise, the only path you will take in the end is to abandon love and hate and live a life of mutual love and killing."

"This kind of poison has another characteristic: the person who loves less will start to forget first, or rather, become emotionally detached. So, Shen Jinchen, while you still have feelings for Cen Xi, she will already start to hate you, and you might even die at her hands in the end."

Jun Jianchou watched as Shen Jinchen generously explained the wonderful uses of the Love Gu to him.

It has to be said that Shen Jinchen's younger sister is quite interesting, ruthless, vicious, and very resourceful. She even managed to obtain the Gu, a technique that had been lost in Miao territory.

"Yu Kuang, do you mean we'll eventually forget each other, and I need to hurry up?"

Cen Xi knew that she had to give less in her relationship with Shen Jinchen, so she asked the unnecessary question.

"Yes! I know you didn't love her that much; he forced you into everything. If Ah-Xi could regain her freedom, would you be willing?"

If Jun Jianchou wanted her to forget everything and do what she had always wanted to do, even if he didn't accept her feelings, then he could do it.

"No! That's not how it is, Yu Kuang, you're wrong. I do love him. Even if I didn't love him before, and I don't love him deeply now, I will eventually fall in love with him, so I'm happy to do so. Tomorrow we'll set off for Miao territory, so you can help us stay behind and hold the fort."

Seeing Shen Jinchen's ashen face, Cen Xi walked to his side and said earnestly that she was not a heartless person.

She saw Shen Jinchen's love and devotion, even though he was a bit domineering and did many things against her wishes.

But he eventually won her heart with his unique methods. At least he regarded her as his number one priority, and was willing to give up the throne for her.

She is not a plant or tree; how could she be without feelings?

Besides, he has already let Jun Jianchou down, how could he bear to let down another person?

Therefore, she had to go to Miao territory.

Moreover, many forbidden techniques originated from Miao territory. Perhaps the soul of Emperor Yan Taizu is hidden in Miao territory, so it would be good to deal with it together.

"You...you've really made up your mind?"

As Jun Jianchou dissected himself like this, he felt as if he had been stabbed twice more in the heart. It hurt terribly, but he had to endure it because he ultimately had no more chances.

"Yes! Husband, shall we go to Miao territory together?"

“Okay! Ah Xi, from the first moment I saw you, you captivated my heart. I unknowingly fell for you. I don’t want to forget you, nor do I want you to forget me. I’m also afraid of being rejected. Let’s go to Miao territory together.”

Shen Jinchen tucked a strand of hair from Cen Xi's forehead behind her ear, glanced at Jun Jianchou, and said very seriously.

"Okay, let's go together. We won't go back to the Shen residence anymore, okay? If Father misses us, we'll bring her to the Princess's residence. I don't want to see the Shen sisters again. What if another Shen Qinghua pops up? We won't be able to guard against her. So let's not have any contact, okay?"

Cen Xi grabbed Shen Jinchen's hand and looked at him hopefully.

After realizing what kind of curse she had been given, Cen Xi softened immediately. Although their relationship was forced, they still developed feelings for each other. Shen Jinchen felt even more strongly about it; he didn't want the other person to be disappointed after getting what they wanted.

The fact that she cares so much about his feelings now and in the future suggests that she has unknowingly fallen in love with this man.

"Okay, whatever you say, we'll set off tomorrow."

Shen Jinchen had never seen Cen Xi treat her so gently before.

He felt that even if he were to die at this moment, he would be willing.

By using the Love Potion, Shen Qinghua had indeed made a good move. Hopefully, she wouldn't move too fast on the map, otherwise she wouldn't even be able to find the person she wanted revenge against.

“If you go, I will go too. In this world, apart from Miao territory, only Medicine King Valley truly understands Gu.”

Jun Jianchou glanced at the two with complicated emotions, but ultimately decided to go with them.

Cen Xi had become an insurmountable worry for him; he couldn't eat or sleep until he saw her safe and sound.

Since this matter needs to be resolved, he should keep an eye on it, because from the moment Cen Xi retorted, he felt that she had already taken a liking to her man.

To avoid upsetting her, he decided to help them find the Gu King and Gu Queen.

Seeing him say this, Cen Xi opened her mouth several times, but in the end she didn't say anything. She had said what she needed to say many times. Since she couldn't stop him, why should she stop him?

"Then let Wen Qiheng handle the affairs of the capital; he should be able to do a good job."

Shen Jinchen gave Jun Jianchou a deep look, then pulled Cen Xi away.

Back in their courtyard, the two looked at each other in silence.

Shen Jinchen opened his mouth several times, but ultimately said nothing and wanted to leave.

"What are you going to do?"

"Take a walk by yourself."

"Come back! Don't go! What's with this fuss? And what's going on with what happened at the Shen residence today? How do you plan to handle this?"

Cen Xi felt that this man's temper was acting up for no reason and felt a little flustered. Could it be that the Gu had taken effect so quickly?

Has he started to feel disgusted with him now?

Didn't Jun Jianchou say that we should start with her?
