Sitting up from him, Xue Huan frowned as she felt pain all over her body. Fortunately, this pain was nothing to her. Her frown soon relaxed and she picked up the bowl to drink the fish soup spoonful by spoonful.

The fish meat is very tender and has few bones, and the soup is light and delicious. I have to say, this bowl of fish soup is really delicious.

Unfortunately, after eating one bowl, she couldn't eat any more.

The original owner was detained in a separate courtyard by the Xue family in Pengcheng. He was worried and sad all day long, moved less, and his appetite was reduced due to hunger. He had to slowly recover.

"Aren't you going to eat anymore?" Yuan Xi saw that she stopped drinking after just one bowl, and couldn't help but think that her appetite was too small.

No wonder she is so thin, with a pointed chin that makes people feel distressed. She doesn't have much flesh on her body. When I hold her in my arms, I feel as if I can crush her if I use a little more force.

Thinking about how he almost strangled her to death when he lost his mind, Yuan Xi felt remorseful and wished he could chop off that hand.

Xue Huan nodded: "I'm full."

He stood up and walked towards the corner.

Yuan Xi asked, "Where are you going?"

Xue Huan turned around speechlessly: "It's convenient. What's the matter? Are you afraid that I will run away?"

Yuan Xi laughed, feeling that he was too nervous and had become unlike himself, losing his usual calmness and composure. He had only known her for a day, but his heart was already tied to her.

"Go ahead."

He then instructed the only woman among the secret guards, "Thirteen, support Huanhuan."

Huanhuan?

Xue Huan's mouth twitched when this obviously intimate name came out. "Brother, we've only known each other for less than a day, okay?" But we've already hugged and touched each other, so it seems a bit hypocritical to fuss over a name.

Forget it, let him be.

A woman wearing black clothes and with a stern face came out from her hiding place and supported Xue Huan.

This woman is thirteen years old.

Xue Huan's injuries had not healed yet, and she was indeed having difficulty moving, so she did not refuse. She leaned on her and walked behind a rock that blocked her view, then lifted her skirt.

Thirteen turned around quickly.

After relieving herself, Xue Huan washed her hands with the water dripping from the mountain wall and asked Thirteen, "Did you apply the medicine on me?"

Thirteen said simply, "Yes."

"Did you change the clothes too?"

The dress she was originally wearing was stained with blood and dirt and was obviously no longer wearable. She was now wearing a dress that was a little too big, but very clean and had a scent of soapberry on it.

Thirteen: "Yeah."

Xue Huan smiled at her: "Thank you."

Thirteen was stunned for a moment, then said seriously, "No need to thank me, I'm just following the prince's orders."

Xue Huan laughed even more happily, thinking that although she looked cold and indifferent, she was actually a little silly.

Thirteen was a little confused by her smile, and a trace of doubt flashed across his cold face.

"By the way, do you have a mirror?" Xue Huan asked. After being reborn into this shell, she still didn't know what the original owner looked like.

Although those who practice Taoism do not value appearance, appearance is just a shell.

But Xue Huan still hopes that she can be beautiful.

Thirteen shook his head.

"Who has it?"

Thirteen: "None of us have any."

Xue Huan: “…”

Don’t these people carry mirrors when they go out?

Helpless, Xue Huan had to borrow Yuan Xi's sword to look at the mirror. His sword shone as bright as snow, clearer than a bronze mirror.

When she saw the original owner's appearance clearly, she couldn't help but be shocked. The original owner looked so much like her?

Of course, the original owner was far inferior to her in terms of beauty.

The original owner was a little pale and thin, with a trace of sadness often lingering between his brows, making his face look a little bitter.

And she has fair skin and clear eyes.

However, since this body has been taken over by her, under the inner influence of her soul, the appearance of this body will gradually become closer to her original self.

After a night's rest, the group set out early the next morning to look for the red-scaled ganoderma.

Xue Huan was carried on Yuan Xi's back, looking around leisurely. It didn't seem like she was walking in a dangerous and dark valley, but rather like she was walking in her own back garden.

Fourteen, who was rather impulsive, could not bear to see this and muttered, "Does this woman have no legs? She actually wants the prince to carry her on his back."

Thirteen glanced at him and said, "Your Majesty likes it."

fourteen:"……"

Yes, the prince likes it and the prince is willing. What right do they, as his subordinates, have to be dissatisfied?

Twelve patted Fourteen's shoulder and said earnestly, "Fourteen, don't be silly."

This is a reminder to him.

Fourteen admires Ah Qi, and Ah Qi admires the prince. However, the prince has never been interested in women and has never been polite to any of them, so Ah Qi does not dare to express his love to the prince.

But even a blind man could see her admiration for the prince, and the secret guards who grew up together naturally knew it too.

Twelve was worried that Fourteen would stand up for Ah Qi and confront Miss Xue.

It is obvious that the prince has special feelings for Miss Xue, and Miss Xue may become their princess in the future. Once Fourteenth Prince confronts Miss Xue, it is self-evident which side the prince will stand on.

Then the one who will suffer will be Fourteen.

Fourteen snorted, said nothing, turned his eyes away, and no longer looked at Xue Huan in front of him.

Xue Huan put her arms around Yuan Xi's neck and asked him, "What does the Red Scale Ganoderma look like?"

Yuan Xi: "The Red Scale Ganoderma is just as its name suggests, its entire body is red, with scale-like patterns, and it likes to grow in dry, sunny places."

Xue Huan took note and explored the surroundings with his spiritual sense.

Suddenly, her expression changed and she pulled Yuan Xi's ear: "Stop! Let your men come back quickly."

Yuan Xi didn't ask why, he just stopped and looked at Eleven, signaling him to take out a bone whistle and blow it twice to summon Fifteen and Sixteen who were exploring the way ahead to come back.

Xue Huan got off Yuan Xi's back and said to Eleven and the others, "Go find some dry firewood and branches quickly. You must be back within thirty breaths. Quick!"

Yuan Xi said in a deep voice, "Do as Huanhuan says."

Xue Huan then said to Yuan Xi, "Take out everything you have that can burn, form a circle and light it. The bigger the fire, the better."

Yuan Xi did as she said and even took out clothes, shoes, socks and bedding.

Fourteen frowned as he watched Xue Huan ordering everyone around, feeling very unhappy, but due to Yuan Xi's order, he had no choice but to do as he was told.

Xue Huan asked everyone to stand in a circle and set fire to the things in the circle.

Seeing his and others' belongings being burned by Xue Huan, Fourteen could no longer hold back: "What are you doing!"

Xue Huan glanced at him and said, "The white-headed ant colony is coming."

The white-headed ant is a ferocious creature that brings disaster to all living things wherever it passes. Even in the Zixiao Continent, it is something that makes cultivators shudder at the mere mention of it.

They usually appear in groups and move very fast. Wherever they pass, any living creature that can breathe will be devoured by them, leaving only a pile of bones.
