The last sentence stuck in his throat, and he couldn't say it no matter what.
The priest laughed and continued Qu Wanwan's words, "Even if it meant marrying Wu Li, would you be willing?"
"I...I do." Qu Wanwan stopped hesitating.
She took a deep breath, her gaze gradually hardening.
She and Feng Yao had no future together. The Witch King would never agree to her marrying a foreigner. Since that was the case, she might as well use her marriage to exchange for Aunt Feng Yun returning to normal.
At least this way, Feng Yao will have a normal mother, his parents will remarry, and he will still be a wealthy young master.
If the Feng family develops oil properly, Feng Yao could even become the richest man in Country A and marry an even better woman.
As for her, she should stay on the original track and do what she's supposed to do.
"Your Excellency, please teach me the art of dispelling the curse, I am willing—"
“Princess Wanwan, I have promised the Emperor of Country A that I will not give the antidote to the Red Bean Gu to anyone, and I cannot break my promise.” The priest interrupted Qu Wanwan.
Qu Wanwan froze, her eyes wide, unsure how to respond.
What exactly does the high priest mean by this? Is he toying with her?
But then the priest added, "However, there is a type of Gu in the Witch Kingdom called the Holy Gu, which you should know about."
Qu Wanwan's eyes lit up again instantly, and she nodded in agreement, "Yes, the Holy Gu! The king of all Gu, it can cure all Gu poisons. It is a treasure of the Witch Kingdom and is kept by the Holy Maiden of the Divine Palace."
At this point, Qu Wanwan's heart raced, and she was somewhat incredulous. "High Priest, you're going to give me the Sacred Gu? But this thing is too precious. What if the Holy Maiden doesn't agree?"
"What if you are the saintess?"
The priest's last words landed in Qu Wanwan's heart, instantly creating a huge wave of emotion!
