The wind whistled past her ears as she thought about how her soul had been transported to another world this time, even shorter than Xin Lian's. She had originally planned to return to Chongyang Mountain and become her tea master again.
I didn't expect that I'd be getting my lunchbox killed so soon.
Sigh! If there's a next time, she'd better not get to know Fu Yunchen at all. Just being an ordinary tea connoisseur would be fine.
'Splash—' She fell into the rushing water!
Then his head hit a rock in the water, and he lost consciousness on the spot. His bright red blood, like a blooming flower, spread in the water and flowed away with the current, including Mu Run's body!
...
Fu Yunchen met with the head of the Imperial Certification Department.
I learned from him that, in order to reduce the death of Dark Crows after the mother Gu's inner core is removed, the mother Gu no longer controls multiple people simultaneously. Basically, there are five pairs of child Gu corresponding to one mother Gu.
Of the offspring Gu from the same batch as Hua Ling, only Hua Ling and another Dark Crow named Xiao Cao remain.
If the inner core of the mother Gu is taken, the dark crow named Xiaocao will also die.
However, the loss is already very small.
Compared to the mother Gu core that Prince Xiang took before, three hundred Dark Crows died at the same time!
When Fu Yunchen heard the name "Little Grass," he suddenly remembered the little grass that Mu Run often talked about.
The head of the Imperial Cultivation Bureau opened the box containing the mother Gu, revealing a golden mother Gu that was five inches long and shaped like a silkworm.
"As long as Hua Ling eats the Gu Mother, after the mother and child are reunited, not only will the Heart-Eating Gu be released from its restraints, but her power will also increase by sixty years. Don't be fooled by Prince Xiang's fat appearance; his power is not low. He's just pretending to be weak to deceive others."
"If she were to improve her skills by another sixty years, she would likely have no equal."
"Yes. However, the Mother Gu can only be consumed by someone who possesses the Heart-Eating Gu. Anyone else who consumes it will die on the spot. The Mother Gu is also highly poisonous."
"Okay, thank you, Master Si."
"You're too kind, Grand Commandant."
Fu Yunchen returned to the Grand Commandant's residence and immediately ordered someone to summon Mu Run.
As a result, Mu Run disappeared. A search of the Grand Commandant's mansion yielded no trace of her. Also disappearing with her was a maid named Xiao Cao, who was often with Mu Run.
Fu Yunchen's face instantly turned ashen, like the sky before a storm. The servants of the entire household would instinctively avoid him from afar. If they couldn't avoid him, they would kneel down, trying to minimize their presence.
Fu Yunchen went to the Imperial Censorate again and learned that the Dark Raven named Xiaocao was now working in the Princess's residence.
It is almost certain that Mu Run's disappearance is related to Xiao An.
Based on his understanding of Xiao'an, Mu Run was likely in danger if she fell into her hands!
Fu Yunchen went to the princess's residence to ask for someone.
Princess Xiao'an seemed to know he was coming and was already dressed in her finest attire, waiting for him.
"You want that girl? Fine. I'll make you come with a grand wedding procession and marry me into the Grand Commandant's household!"
"I thought the princess would ask me to come to the princess's residence."
"You haven't come for six years, so I've given up hope. Why don't you find a way to back down? Does the Grand Commandant agree?"
"Hand her over, and I'll leave you with a whole corpse; otherwise..." Fu Yunchen's murderous aura surged, and all the flowers and plants within a ten-foot radius withered and died! His title of Poison Prince was well-deserved!
Princess Xiao'an also felt as if something had pierced her body, causing her to suffocate!
"Help, help me—" Xiao'an clutched his own neck, his once beautiful face now turning a purplish-red.
Fu Yunchen's eyes turned heterochromatic as he slowly approached Xiao An. "Where is Hua Ling?"
Xiao'an was speechless.
