So he took the mask from the other person and put it on, then picked up Yun Yuqing's soft body and hurried towards the city gate.
Yun Yuqing lay in his arms the whole way. Although her appearance had been restored, her eyes were extremely bright and lively: "You were really willing to fight for me and the emperor in the illusion."
Zuan smiled slightly: "You've saved my life time and time again, so how could I stand idly by when I see you in danger?"
"Just because I saved you?" Yun Yuqing pouted, seemingly a little disappointed.
"Of course not, I'm saving you because you're in danger." Zu'an immediately realized that sweet talk was a scumbag's self-cultivation.
As expected, Yun Yuqing smiled broadly after hearing his words: "Aunt, you are so kind."
The two chatted and laughed along the way, easily entering the capital. Yun Yuqing guided them to a magnificent mansion in the inner city.
Zu An was stunned when he saw the three large characters "Wu Wang Fu" on the gate plaque.
Yun Yuqing smiled and said, "Every prince has a residence in the capital, but they rarely have the opportunity to stay there. Since I'm in the capital, I'll naturally stay here."
Then she frowned and said, "I came out secretly today because I don't want to be seen by anyone with ulterior motives, so please carry me and sneak me in."
Zu'an hesitated, "But the Prince's Palace is heavily guarded..."
You should know that his dormitory in Mingyue City Academy used to have defensive formations, and this is a prince's mansion, so there will definitely be no shortage of various defensive formations and attack restrictions.
Yun Yuqing waved a token in her hand: "Don't worry, this access token won't alert the palace's restrictions."
Zuan chuckled to himself, realizing that even the strongest defenses couldn't withstand an inside traitor.
With her leading the way and giving him advance warning, he did not trigger the palace's defenses and also avoided the patrolling guards along the way.
Ultimately, it's because this is an abandoned princely residence, and there aren't many guards inside. Otherwise, even if they broke through the outer perimeter, they would be easily discovered inside.
Arriving at her boudoir, Yun Yuqing finally breathed a sigh of relief, removed her mask to reveal her original appearance, and the entire room seemed to brighten up a bit.
She went to a pool next to the room and gently turned on a valve. Clear hot water gushed out from the mouths of several nearby statues.
Zuan stared in disbelief: "A water heater?!"
"A water heater?" Yun Yuqing asked, somewhat bewildered. "This uses a rune array to bring in a nearby hot spring. Many nobles and royalty in the area have pools like this."
Zuan sighed inwardly, thinking how these people really knew how to enjoy life.
In fact, after he came to this world, he had witnessed many things that used rune arrays to improve the convenience of life.
"By the way, you're a runemaster. Where did you learn it?" Zuan was a little curious. He knew that runemasters were a profession mainly for humans, but the other party was a demon. How could he know something that humans kept strictly secret?
Yun Yuqing looked apologetic: "I'm sorry, I promised my master that I couldn't reveal anything about him."
"It's alright, it was my recklessness," Zuan said nonchalantly. "By the way, you should hurry up and detoxify, otherwise it will be troublesome if the corpse poison enters your body for too long."
Yun Yuqing hummed in agreement, reached for her collar to unbutton it, then suddenly blushed slightly, opened her mouth, but ultimately said nothing: "Grandpa, please protect me."
After she finished speaking, her slender, jade-like fingers danced lightly, and one piece of clothing after another slipped to the ground, revealing her flawless, radiant white body.

I've been listening to "The Shepherd of Koktokay" for the past few days, and it's getting a bit addictive.
