A possessive and obsessive Prince? A dark-bellied Princess Consort with the support of a system that grants mastery over both medicine and poison. A journey of mutual devotion...
Mobeichen, t...
The nameless man's eyes held a hint of grievance, but upon meeting Yun Qingluo's cool gaze, he immediately sat up straight and answered formally:
"Madam, we have found out that they captured these women in order to refine a pill that preserves youth."
Yun Qingluo frowned, "A youth-preserving pill?"
Just from the name, it doesn't sound like a good medicine.
Wuming's eyes were somewhat cold as he glanced at the lobby. Although the sun was high in the sky, it was still a bit early for lunch, so there weren't many people in the lobby.
Seeing that no one was around, Wuming turned around and whispered, "They capture young girls, rip out their hearts, drain their blood, put the blood in a vessel and boil it until it becomes thick. Then they put the hearts in and boil it for thirty-six days. Then they add other precious medicinal herbs and boil it for a day and a night to make an elixir. If you eat this elixir, you can become a beautiful young girl and stay young forever. Moreover, it takes thirty-six women to make one youth-preserving elixir."
Yunying was somewhat angry. "Many years ago, we destroyed the Netherworld Pavilion. I thought there would be no more evil arts in this world, but I didn't expect them to spring up again like weeds."
When Yun Qingluo heard about the Underworld Pavilion again, she was still somewhat moved.
I have to say, the Valley of Divine Healers is truly amazing.
With such a powerful figure in her life, it's truly shameful that she lived such a miserable life in her previous life.
The Divine Doctor Valley destroyed the Underworld Pavilion for two reasons: protecting its own members and engaging in other despicable and shady activities.
The most difficult thing to satisfy in this world is the human heart.
Therefore, when Yun Qingluo first read about the idea that people are inherently good, she was somewhat disdainful.
Human nature is inherently evil; it's just that the evils differ.
How wicked a person is can be seen from how greedy they are; the word "greed" has ruined countless lives.
The education a child receives actually begins from the moment they are born.
Newborn children are not good, but rather they cannot distinguish between good and evil; they do not know what is good and what is evil.
Therefore, parents need to teach them what is good and what is evil.
Otherwise, why would we say that parents are a child's first and most important teachers?
As the ancients said, one should teach by words and deeds, be influenced by what one sees and hears, set an example, and personally demonstrate.
The influence of words and actions on a child is enormous.
So many people have died because of greed.
Some covet money, some covet power, some covet beauty... People walking in this world will inevitably have something to gain, which is normal. But to lose one's humanity and use any means necessary to get what one wants is something that the great Dao does not allow.
"If I had known, I would have just killed him with one sword. But wait, according to what you said, this should be a criminal organization, a group committing crimes. How could such a lowly subordinate know so much?"
Yunying looked at Wuming with suspicion. Could it be that he made it up just to avoid leaving?
Seeing Yunying's suspicious look, Wuming was a little displeased. "What kind of look is that? We have to say our lady is lucky. The person who came to arrest her is actually their leader, known as the Third Boss."
Yun Qingluo raised an eyebrow. "Oh ho, I'm that important."
The nameless man chuckled evilly, "Does Madam know why the Third Master personally came to arrest you?"
Yun Qingluo glanced at Wuming and uttered three words in a cold voice, "Placeus Carcass".
Wuming glanced at Yun Qingluo in surprise. She had guessed it right away. She was quite clever.
"That's right, placenta has beauty and skin-nourishing effects, so it's not unreasonable for them to be envious."
Yun Qingluo's lips curled into a cold smile. "Unfortunately, they shouldn't have tried to harm the child in my womb. Qiuyue, take four guards and take care of it."
Evil should be punished by everyone.
"Madam, shall we not interrogate her any further?" Wuming asked in surprise.
Is that all?
So decisive?
If we don't investigate further, what if there's some conspiracy behind this?
“What’s the point of interrogating them? When you encounter such inhuman beasts, you should make them regret ever being born,” Yun Qingluo said coldly.
Some people are not fit to be human.
Those girls were as beautiful as flowers, buds about to bloom, their lives just beginning before they ended.
That's really unfair.
Clouds swayed through the window, watching the street gradually come alive.
"Qiushui, pack some food, let's set off." Upon hearing this discouraging news, Yun Qingluo lost her appetite and only wanted to get into the carriage and leave this place.
"Send two more Divine Guards to resolve this quickly and then catch up with us," Yun Qingluo said calmly.
Yunying hesitated. With Qiuyue joining, seven Divine Guards would be gone, leaving them with few men. What if...?
"What's meant to be will be, so let's deal with it sooner rather than later and feel better." Yun Qingluo, supporting Yun Ying's arm, stood up and walked towards the door.
Upon hearing this, Yunying stopped trying to stop her.
Wuming glanced at Yun Qingluo's retreating figure with surprise. Had she guessed it?
Wuming lowered his eyes and chuckled softly. It was hard to tell whether he was being too sensitive or simply extending his affection to everything associated with the house.
I'm starting to feel like she's becoming more and more different from others.
After getting into the carriage, Yun Qinglu ate two steamed buns and then went back to sleep.
The carriage clattered along the official road, then entered a forest and disappeared into the woods.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh".
As the arrows hurtled through the air, Yunying hurriedly drew the software from her waist, her wrists swiftly turning the software into an umbrella, deflecting all the arrows outside the carriage.
Yun Qingluo opened her eyes, a smile playing on her lips. "You couldn't hold back so quickly?"
You can't have any patience at all.
"Yunying, go inside and protect the lady. Leave the outside to me," Wuming shouted to Yunying while shielding himself from the rain of arrows.
Concerned for Yun Qingluo's safety, Yun Ying nodded and got into the carriage, while the two guards hidden in the shadows disappeared without a trace.
A moment later, the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground came from the woods.
The rain of arrows stopped, and Wuming flew forward, only to see a group of men in black lying dead.
Two figures emerged from the woods; they were the Divine Guards who hadn't appeared earlier.
Another group of men in black suddenly appeared from the surrounding area. Nameless and the two Divine Guards immediately flew back to the carriage and protected it behind them.
The leader of the men in black stepped forward, his eyes turning cold as he saw the corpse on the ground. "Damn it, weren't they saying they only brought ten men?"
Seven people left just now, and there were three people in the carriage. What's the deal with these two extra people?
"Boss, the intelligence is wrong. Should we retreat first?" A man in black stepped forward, staring at the nameless man and the others in front of the carriage.
"This is your only chance. Going back is the same as dying. Get them!" the leader said viciously.
Yun Qingluo's voice came from inside the carriage, "If I were you, I might put down my knife and surrender."
"Hmph, dream on! What are you standing there for? Get him!" Upon hearing Yun Qingluo's words, the man in black felt a moment of panic, but then coldly gave the order.
She's definitely bluffing. With so many of them, she doesn't believe they can't kill these few people.
