Qi Tong quickly scanned her body: [He's already opened it. You... your life force is draining away. Xin Liangmu planted a symbiotic Gu in your eyes. When your life force begins to drain, your eyes will be the first to lose their sight.]
Mu Tiantian: [What should we do then?]
Seven Unifications: [I have a way to temporarily restore your life force, but I don't know how long it will last. Furthermore, this clone of yours wasn't cultivated using a mother body in this world, and your use of talismanic water to prolong your life severely violates the world's laws. Once detected by the world, even this body will be forcibly expelled.]
Seven Unifications: [Even if I help you, the higher-level system will detect a violation, and I might be forcibly recalled. Then it's up to you. I must remind you, once the clone is forcibly expelled from the world, neither your soul nor your original body can return to the world, and even the World Management Bureau cannot intervene.]
After saying that, Qi Tong violated regulations by using his own energy to temporarily revive Mu Tiantian's body.
Gradually, light appeared in Mu Tiantian's eyes.
Long Fantian half-squatted in front of her, his hands anxiously cupping her face, his expression flustered.
Suddenly, his palms felt warm.
Mu Tiantian smiled sweetly at him and said, "I was just lost in thought. Shouldn't we drink the nuptial wine now?"
As she spoke, she got up, walked to the table, poured two glasses of wine, and came to him.
"You..." A look of surprise appeared in Long Fantian's dark eyes, "Your body..."
"I've always been in good health." Mu Tiantian was unusually happy, handed him her wine glass, and took the initiative to drink a toast with him.
Long Fantian could not contain his joy and suddenly pulled her into his arms.
The person in his arms was so warm and real; he could hear her heartbeat.
Therefore, she will not die.
System: [Long Fantian's corruption value has been reset to zero.]
System: [Long Fantian's favorability increased by 10, currently at 30.]
Mu Tiantian hugged him back, and suddenly some images flashed through her mind, scenes that she didn't remember but were familiar with.
One night, she secretly dealt with the people who were following Long Fantian and trying to assassinate him, but he discovered her and the two met and spoke.
More importantly, she dropped a dagger, which he picked up.
It seems that Qitong didn't tell her about this.
Long Fantian held Mu Tiantian tightly, wishing he could meld her into his body.
System: [Long Fantian's favorability increased by 10, currently at 40.]
The notification sound for increasing favorability kept coming.
Before the sound even faded, a serious warning message was heard.
System: [Warning: System No. 77 has committed a serious violation and has been forcibly recalled by the main system. A temporary system will temporarily assume the duties of System No. 77.]
Qitong: [I'm speechless. You guys detected the violation way way too quickly.]
System: [System Number 77, please use polite language; otherwise, points will be deducted as a penalty.]
Qi Tong: [Holy crap! What did I say? How was I being uncivilized?!]
System: [System number 77 has been detected as potentially insulting a leader. A serious warning is issued.]
Seven: [I...I'll shut up.]
At the very moment that the Seven Commanders were forcibly recalled.
Mu Tiantian felt as if all the strength in her body had been drained away, her vision went black, and her consciousness gradually blurred.
The only saving grace is that Long Fantian's favorability rating is not high.
That way, he shouldn't be too upset after she leaves. Time heals all wounds, and the world will return to normal.
But she still secretly hoped that she wouldn't be rejected by the world.
"Actually..." she wanted to say, she actually quite liked him.
But I can't say that, because it would affect his favorability.
Mu Tiantian fell silent. In her hazy state, she could hear the system's voice, but she couldn't make out what the system was saying.
Long Fantian gently kissed the nape of her neck, "Actually what?"
She didn't answer; she remained silent.
Suddenly, Long Fantian felt a chill on the skin his thin lips touched. His heart tightened, and he called out softly, his voice trembling, "Tian Tian?"
Mu Tiantian completely lost consciousness.
At the same time, the system notification sounded again.
System: [Long Fantian's favorability increased by 10, currently at 100.]
...
I don't know how much time passed.
Mu Tiantian opened her eyes groggily.
She thought she had arrived in a new world, but the memories of the past still lingered in her mind. She couldn't help but call out to it, her voice hoarse, "Seven Commanders..."
"The princess is awake! The princess is awake!"
In a daze, Mu Tiantian heard someone shout.
princess?
The voice was also very familiar.
Mu Tiantian tried to move, but her body felt sore, tired, and stiff, clearly indicating that she had been lying down for too long.
She raised her hand to rub her eyes, glanced around, and saw an antique-style room with simple yet cozy decorations.
Suddenly, a familiar face appeared before me.
"Your Highness, you're finally awake!"
"Spring rain?" Mu Tiantian rubbed her head and sat up.
Is she back again?
A moment later, two gray-haired men walked in through the door.
Shi Changbo's hair has turned quite a bit white in the last two or three months, making him look several years older.
Beside him stood a white-robed man of similar age, with a white beard and an air of otherworldly grace, who hurriedly approached Mu Tiantian and took her pulse.
After a long while, Xiao Yan breathed a sigh of relief, "I'm fine now."
"Master? What is this..." Mu Tiantian touched her arms, face, and neck; the skin felt warm.
It doesn't feel cold at all.
So, she is now fully alive.
But how did he do that? The symbiotic gu should be incurable. Could Xiao Yan really be that amazing?
"I am powerless to help your symbiotic Gu, but I remember that symbiotic Gu can be transferred. Although the hope is not great, there is always a glimmer of hope. Fortunately, the Regent is tough enough, otherwise you would all be dead."
After processing Xiao Yan's words, Mu Tiantian roughly guessed the situation and asked worriedly, "How is he?"
"Don't worry, since the symbiotic Gu has been transferred, if you're alive, he's definitely alive too." Xiao Yan stroked his beard, completely relieved. "It's just that you're a little weak. Be careful for the next month. For the sake of your 'happiness' in the second half of your life, don't have sex."
Mu Tiantian blushed and said, "Okay, okay."
Xiao Yan gave Mu Tiantian a formal look and then told everyone in the room to leave.
Shi Changbo was pushed and shoved towards the door, and reluctantly asked, "Old man, what's all this secrecy about? Is there anything I can't know?"
"I'll tell you everything when I ask you to drink tonight," Xiao Yan said dismissively.
Shi Changbo didn't insist on keeping him, saying, "I'll drink you to death tonight."
After everyone left, only she and Xiao Yan remained in the room.
"Master, is there something you want to tell me?" Mu Tiantian was a little nervous; Xiao Yan was too serious.
Xiao Yan sat down beside her bed and said in a serious tone, "I have the ability to save the Emperor, but do you think I should?"
"Master... what... what do you mean... shouldn't it be up to you whether to save her or not?" Mu Tiantian didn't understand. "Why are you asking me?"
Moreover, she felt that Xiao Yan seemed to know something.
Xiao Yan spoke frankly, sighing, "I calculated that if the poison in the Emperor's body had been removed earlier, he would have died even faster, so I didn't dare to save him. But later I realized that his life and death should not be in my hands."
"The way you're talking makes it sound like I can make that decision..." Mu Tiantian chuckled dryly.
"But isn't the Regent's life and death in your hands?"
"I..." This question left Mu Tiantian speechless.
Mu Tiantian: [Seven Unifications!]
System: [System No. 77 has been forcibly recalled due to violations. Task participants experiencing problems can provide feedback to the temporary system.]
The mechanical voice was devoid of emotion.
"I...I...am not..." Mu Tiantian rubbed her temples, completely confused. "Master, what exactly do you mean?"
In the end, he was the one who saved Long Fantian, so how could she make the decision?
"Never mind." Seeing her bewildered expression, Xiao Yan didn't force her to make a decision. He finally asked, "Your Majesty, am I considered your friend?"
"Of course," Mu Tiantian replied without hesitation.
Although Long Xinghuang was impulsive and had a bad temper, he was at least very good to her during her time in the palace. After the palace coup, he could definitely be considered a friend.
"Alright, I understand."
Mu Tiantian watched his departing figure and thought about it carefully.
Xiao Yan knows a bit about divination and fortune telling; could it be that he foresaw something?
But this shouldn't be happening...
Is it really that amazing...?
Three days later.
Long Fantian also regained consciousness.
Chunyu told her about what had happened in the past two months.
After she passed away on her wedding night, Long Fantian went mad and summoned all the imperial physicians.
Long Xinghuang also came to see her in person and threatened all the imperial physicians who came to treat her, saying that if they could not cure her, they would all be buried with her.
Even so, it's still incurable.
Ever since returning from the Imperial Preceptor's residence, Long Fantian had been sending people to search for Xiao Yan, but there had been no news at all, until her hairpin accidentally broke, and a note fell out, which only had a location written on it.
Long Fantian rode at breakneck speed to Baihua Valley, traveling without rest. What should have been a month's journey was completed in ten days, and Xiao Yan lived there.
Xiao Yan only knew that the symbiotic Gu could be transferred. The only thing he could do was to try his best to prevent Long Fantian from losing too much blood and dying during the transfer of the symbiotic Gu.
The symbiotic Gu in Xin Liangmu's body is located in his heart, so it is necessary to remove his heart and then use the blood from Long Fantian's heart to lure the symbiotic Gu into his own body.
This method is very dangerous and has a very low success rate, but it is the only way.
Long Fantian did not hesitate to try immediately, regardless of the cost.
Fortunately, it was a success in the end.
Long Fantian was still very weak after waking up, but it didn't affect his journey.
Xiao Yan also went to the capital with them to prepare an antidote for Long Xinghuang.
Shi Changbo gave Mu Tiantian a jar of wine, which he had just developed, to drink on her wedding night.
Mu Tiantian asked in confusion, "The wedding is over."
Long Fantian whispered in her ear, "One more step."
Mu Tiantian blushed and walked into the Prince's mansion carrying the wine jar.
