Xiao Yaning angrily opened her mouth and bit the guard's arm tightly.

The guard groaned and, in pain, continued swimming towards the lake.

By this time, many palace maids had come to help. Seeing the Sixth Princess being dragged ashore, they hurriedly grabbed her hands, fearing that she might do something rash again.

The Empress could no longer care about anything else and ran straight to Xiao Yaning's side, embracing her as she was soaking wet.

"Ya Ning, you've scared your mother to death! Don't you really want your mother anymore?"

Xiao Yaning seemed oblivious, her red pupils staring blankly into the distance.

[Strange, why doesn't she have a soul?]

The Emperor and Empress were stunned for a moment.

No soul?

A soul and a spirit exist within a person; the soul governs the spirit, and the spirit governs the body.

[The sixth princess lacks the Earth Soul among her three souls; a great calamity is imminent.]

The Empress held Xiao Yaning tightly, biting her lip hard to force herself not to act impulsively.

The Holy Emperor's face was icy cold.

"Someone, go and fetch the imperial physician."

"Also, bring all the people who served the Sixth Princess in Xining Palace!"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Xiao Yaning tried to break free from the Empress and jumped into the lake again, scaring the Empress half to death.

"Granny Ji, quickly, help the Sixth Princess back to the palace."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The Empress walked to the Emperor's side, her voice trembling, "Your Majesty, what should we do?"

Seeing her anxious expression, the Emperor said gently, "Empress, don't worry, wait for the imperial physician to arrive."

Even if the imperial physician came, it would be the same.

Now, the only thing we can do is find her earthly soul. If her heavenly soul returns to heaven, her name will appear in the Book of Life and Death.

Upon hearing this, the Empress fainted.

The palace maids and concubines present rushed over to help him.

The Holy Emperor suppressed himself with all his might.

A sense of powerlessness washed over me.

Lin Wanwan grabbed the Holy Emperor's hand, "I can~"
