The man did not answer Mu Wanting, and even tried to call for someone to come.

Without any hesitation, Mu Wanting took out a rope from her spatial storage under the cover of the package and tied Li Wu up. Then she took out a truth serum and injected it into him.

As the man's pupils gradually dilated, Mu Wanting knew her chance had come.

Who is your employer?

The man stared blankly: "It's the second young lady of the Mu family, Murong Rong."

Upon hearing this, a cold glint flashed in Mu Wanting's eyes. Not only had she stolen her marriage, but even after she arrived at her husband's family home, she didn't want her to have an easy time.

Since that's the case, Murong Rong shouldn't expect to have a peaceful life.

Then, her gaze fell on Li Wu, and she took out a puppet gu and planted it on Li Wu.

This is a puppet Gu made by his own mother; it's perfect for Li Wu.

Li Wu was a weak-willed villain to begin with, and with the added effect of the truth serum, his consciousness became confused the moment the puppet gu burrowed into his flesh.

Mu Wanting tried it out.

"Punch yourself in the stomach."

Li Wu hit him so hard that he vomited bile.

Mu Wanting was satisfied.

She let Li Wu return to the officers' ranks on her own, and then she continued picking mushrooms, while also marking the spots for Song Xie and the others.

Then, Mu Wanting returned to the team.

Li Wu usually showed no abnormalities and was even unaware that he had been infected with the Puppet Gu. He only showed abnormalities when Mu Wanting was involved or when Mu Wanting activated the Puppet Gu.

After traveling for several more days in the deep mountains, Mu Wanting heard the sound of horses' hooves behind her.

She thought it was just a passerby, but the horse stopped beside her, and then a man dismounted and walked towards her.

Only then did she look at the person who had come.
