"The Longevity Gu." The man behind Wan Ge chuckled.

Judging from the other person's tone, Wan Ge said, "Do you know?"

Cang Mu hummed in agreement, then said, "I know."

"Then can you take me to find it?" Wan Ge knew that she had to bring the Longevity Gu back no matter what.

Because the emperor still has people the original owner cares about in his hands. The original owner no longer has any blood relatives, but she cannot abandon her uncle who has treated her like his own daughter since childhood.

If I don't go back, or don't bring them back, everyone connected to the original owner will be implicated.

If the original owner had acted a little more cold-blooded from the start, perhaps the emperor wouldn't have felt he could control her. But the original owner valued relationships too much, so the emperor had her completely under his control in every aspect.

Cang Mu whispered in her ear in a deep voice, "The Longevity Gu Worm is very rare, and its survival rate is extremely low. It is also very difficult to refine a complete Longevity Gu, and it takes a long time."

If even someone like Cang Mu says it's difficult, then it must be true.

"Should we nurture them from a young age?" Aren't there any ready-made ones?

“Yes, once the Longevity Gu is cultivated, it must be implanted into a person’s body, otherwise it will die in less than three days,” Cang Mu said softly to the other person.

Wan Ge hadn't expected things to turn out this way. She frowned slightly, indicating that she needed to get back as quickly as possible after completing the refining process. Three days... that would be a bit difficult.

Even though I run that fast, it still took me half a month... If it were a week, it might be possible, three days...

Furthermore, it's unknown how long the refining process will take.

"Why don't you come home with me first? I'll help you refine it." Cang Mu said softly to the person in his arms with a faint smile on his lips.

"Okay." It feels like the villain is here to help her, not that I'm here to save her. Is this some kind of gentle villain in the world?

Wan Ge looked up at the person holding her. She didn't feel anything was wrong with him holding her, because in Nan Yuan's mind, it shouldn't be a problem. After all, they were quite open and enthusiastic, as could be seen from their clothing. Besides, he was holding her to prevent her from falling. However, being so close to him felt really good.

A faint smile played on Cang Mu's lips, and his beautiful eyes were filled with joy.

…

Soon, they arrived at the capital of Nanyuan. The capital was much more prosperous than Wan Ge had imagined, but it was full of exotic style, after all, it was different from Bei Ge.

However, there seemed to be many vendors selling Gu larvae on the street. Wan Ge really disliked these soft things, especially when there were many piled together, she couldn't help but back away.

Wan Ge's clothes were clearly different from others, so she stood out in the street. When she turned around, she saw a woman in red and black clothes, who was Bei Ge.

To say they were malicious... it's more accurate to say they were curious, curious about how they ended up there.

But their gaze quickly shifted away, and Wan Ge didn't think much of it, just feeling that she was only curious for a moment and then stopped.

However, as she walked along, she noticed that many people were looking down, and she finally realized something.

The villain's identity must be quite complex, so...

"Do they all respect you?" Wan Ge asked the people around her.

So when they saw him, they all lowered their heads.
