Ye Qingqing's eyes lit up. "What kind of medicinal catalyst? Does that mean that as long as we have the medicinal catalyst, the antidote can be successfully prepared?"
"It should be about right!"
Zhu Zi wasn't sure either, but he had a gut feeling that it should succeed. He had been researching Ji Wuxin's Soul-Hooking Shadow technique for five years, and had worked on it countless times. He had a general idea of what it was, but the most crucial element was the medicinal catalyst.
"Could it be some kind of heart's blood? I've seen this stuff used as a medicinal ingredient in martial arts novels. Why don't we capture that old hag and get some of her blood to try?" Li Wuming suggested.
Zhu Zi shook her head, firmly denying it, "It can't be blood, let me think about it again."
Ye Qingqing originally wanted to say blood, but Zhu Zi was so sure it wasn't blood, so she had to think of another way. If the medicinal ingredient wasn't blood, then what was it?
Pipi flew back to the chandelier. After eating and drinking its fill, it felt sleepy. Since it had already come out, it didn't plan to go back into the space. Maybe there were some pretty birds here too!
Miao Tianxiong looked at Pipi strangely. He had initially thought it was just an ordinary myna, but how could an ordinary myna defeat that fierce little snake? Even she couldn't handle it. It seemed that this myna was no ordinary bird!
Ye Qingqing is definitely not an ordinary girl. No wonder Madam insisted on befriending Miss Ye. Madam was indeed farsighted.
Several burly men hurried in, followed by several dark-skinned people, both men and women, who were also carrying a stretcher.
"Princess Julie was found unconscious in the hotel closet, and none of her servants knew anything about it," the subordinate reported.
Ye Qingqing went over to check. The real Princess Julie looked exactly like Ji Wuxin in disguise, but upon closer inspection, it was still noticeable that the real Princess Julie looked gentler and quieter. If the two stood together, it would definitely be easy to tell them apart.
"She's also been hit by the Soul-Hooking Shadow. Let her go."
Ye Qingqing immediately knew that Ji Wuxin had also cast a Soul-Snatching Shadow on Princess Julie, and Zhu Zi had given her a half-finished antidote.
Suddenly, a middle-aged woman bowed repeatedly to Miao Tianxiong, speaking fluent English with tears in her eyes, pleading with him to save Princess Julie.
"Please rest assured, Madam Wu, I will definitely save Princess Julie. You see, my wife was also harmed by the female thief. We are trying to find a way to detoxify her. If you are worried, you can stay here with me to take care of the princess." Miao Tianxiong was very respectful to this middle-aged woman, who seemed to be no ordinary servant.
“She was Princess Julie’s wet nurse, and they were like mothers to each other. Princess Julie faced many difficulties in the palace, but fortunately, she had this Lady Wu to help her,” Ruan Yingzi explained in a low voice.
The Ruan family also sent people to pick her up, but Ruan Yingzi refused to go back and insisted on being with Ye Qingqing, so Madam Ruan had no choice but to go along with her.
Ye Qingqing looked at Madam Wu, who was about forty years old and had a wheat-colored complexion. It was clear that Madam Wu must have been a beauty when she was young, and even now she still had a charming appearance and excellent temperament. She must have received a good education.
"Isn't Princess Julie's biological mother in the palace?" Ye Qingqing wondered.
I haven't heard anyone mention Princess Julie's biological mother yet, so she must be dead, right?
Ruan Yingzi shook her head. "I don't know. I heard she died of illness. Princess Julie was raised by Madam Wu."
Li Wuming glanced at Madam Wu a few times, closed his eyes thoughtfully, and suddenly said from behind, "This Madam Wu is Princess Julie's biological mother. I can sense it."
His words were startling, and both Ye Qingqing and Ruan Yingzi were taken aback, staring at him in surprise.
