Chapter 198: Escape comes at a price



"Don't think that just because you're holding back your smile, I can't tell you're laughing at me." It had only been a short time since they'd gotten back together, and he was already laughing at her. What would happen if this continued in the future?

"Madam, what you said makes sense!"

Husband, madam? "What are you yelling for?"

Liang Ci smiled and moved closer to Mu Huan. He found that Mu Huan really enjoyed talking to the little girl up close. "Is there anything wrong with calling you Madam?"

No, no, no, that's definitely not right! How could Madam scream like that?

"We haven't gotten married yet, why are you yelling?" This is really ruining her reputation as a virgin!

Liang Ci nodded thoughtfully, as if he understood. "I understand what Madam means. Madam, do you need a title?"

Mu Huan said she didn't want to talk to Liang Ci anymore. She found that every time she spoke, she felt so tired! Why was it so difficult to communicate with him now? Every sentence he said was teasing her!

"Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore." Liang Ci touched Mu Huan's furry head lovingly. The little girl looked so cute when she was furious! But Liang Ci also knew that sometimes jokes should not be taken too far and one should know when to stop.

"I'm going out to buy you some food now. You just wait for me here and don't run around." The human race is now in danger. Being targeted by Jun Jingli is really a bit tricky.

"Oh!" Was he treating her like a three-year-old? She wasn't that naive. She ran away before her wounds were healed. It wasn't like she wanted to die.

"Go quickly. I'm almost starving. Do you want to starve me to death?" Mu Huan started to drive people away.

"You little heartless thing!" Liang Ci smiled and shook his head, tapped Mu Huan's smooth and white forehead, opened the door, and resignedly went out to buy food for his little girl!

Watching Liang Ci's departing figure, Mu Huan smiled contentedly. Before, when Liang Ci was not around, she always felt that there was something blocking her heart. Everything she saw was unpleasant to her eyes, and everything she did was not going well. But now, it seemed that the knot in her heart had been put down.

Although she was quite at ease, she hadn't forgotten her purpose for coming to the human race. Mu Huan instinctively knew that Jun Jingli was a very dangerous person. However, if she didn't act because of the danger, there would only be endless trouble in the future.

Having confirmed her relationship with Liang Ci, Mu Huan finally felt at peace, so she could now focus on other matters. And as for Long He, he had dared to escape, so he alone would have to bear the consequences.

The seed that Mu Huan planted in Long He's body is no joke. Don't think that nothing will happen when you escape at first, but now that she has come to her senses, your pain is about to come!

Mu Huan produced a black scepter. If the human race wanted to obtain the purest ghost energy, they would use this scepter, which symbolized the power of the ghost clan, as an intermediary object to absorb the ghost energy of the ghost clan through the drainage of the scepter.

At present, if you want to stimulate the growth of Lycoris radiata, there is only one last way besides her blood, which is to use the purest ghost energy of the ghost clan to catalyze it. Although the effect is not as obvious as direct irrigation with her blood, it is still a method that does not harm itself.

Black smoke emerged from the pearl at the top of the scepter. In just a moment, the pure white night-light pearl had completely transformed into black. Mu Huan used the scepter as an intermediary to directly guide the ghost energy to himself.

Finally, combining ghost energy to stimulate his own ghost power, the red spider lily seed within Long He's body was no ordinary one. It was watered by the Holy Fire of the Netherworld, a mutated red spider lily connected to Mu Huan's heart and blood. Therefore, Mu Huan only needed to use ghost energy to cultivate, and the activated ghost energy would resonate with the seed within Long He's body, thus achieving the goal of nurturing the red spider lily.

No one could possibly have plotted against her. If she had been, then those who had plotted against her wouldn't have had an easy time. Long He, Long He, did you really think you could rest easy just because nothing happened while you were escaping? Go ahead and daydream.

Mu Huan was using ghost energy to stimulate the growth of Lycoris radiata, and Long He had obviously seen immediate results.

In the magnificent palace, Long He rolled on the ground in agony. He felt something growing wildly within him, tearing at his veins. Veins popped from Long He's forehead in agony. The imperial physicians who came were helpless, so they had no choice but to summon the Imperial Master, who rarely left the Imperial Master's Tower.

"Your Excellency, Imperial Master, we are at our wit's end. The Emperor doesn't know what's wrong with him. He's suddenly in excruciating pain all over his body, and all the doctors are helpless."

Jun Jingli pinched his brows a little irritably, put down the yellowed book in his hand, and followed the attendant to where Long He was.

This was the scene Jun Jingli saw when he arrived. Long He's veins were bulging, his face was flushed red, big beads of sweat were oozing from his forehead, and he was almost losing consciousness.

Nearby, the blood-stained mess of the palace maid Long He had accidentally killed because of his excessive pain was lying on the ground. Jun Jingli only frowned slightly, and the displeasure between his brows was clearly visible. However, in the end, Jun Jingli said nothing and directly stopped Long He from going crazy again, tying him to the bed.

Seeing that Long He was restrained, Jun Jingli began to investigate the reason for Long He's abnormal symptoms. However, the more Jun Jingli looked, the more puzzled he became, because he couldn't figure out what was wrong with Long He. On the contrary, the more he investigated, the more he felt a repulsive force in Long He's body that was restraining him from moving.

"This is getting more and more interesting."

Long He's abnormal behavior reminded Jun Jingli of the woman who had nearly destroyed all his efforts with a single move, the new Ghost King of the Ghost Clan. Legend had it that she was the most gifted king of the Ghost Clan, but what exactly that gift was was unknown...

But no matter what, Long He’s pain today is definitely related to that woman.

In desperation, Jun Jingli had no choice but to force Long He to suppress the pain. However, even though the pain was suppressed, if he wanted to completely cure it, he had to find the person who caused it. Only that woman could solve Long He's current problem.

"Cough cough!" The huge and long-lasting pain made Long He exhausted. His face was pale and there were bloody marks on his arms and body from scratching in pain.

"Brother Imperial Master!" His voice was so weak that it made people feel as if he was about to report to the ghost clan.

"Do you know why you became like this?"

Jun Jingli's tone was a little cold, and he didn't want to say much about Long He. Because Long He's feelings for him were really hard to express, but he was still useful to him, so he could only suppress the discomfort in his heart and keep him by his side.
