That old bastard Emperor Mingde was actually a henchman of that fanged monster.

Even if the old man was unconscious, he still wanted to kill him.

That ghostly thing clearly knew that Fang Qingyou had holy spring water on her, so it deliberately made the old man half-dead as bait to lure them in!

Xiaoyaozi was so angry his nose almost crooked. If he had known that the devil was the one who harmed this old man, he would never have saved him.

Despite his anger, the most important thing now is to save people. Of course, his disciple must be saved. This old man has already been saved to this extent. If he is not saved, wouldn't that ruin his reputation?

Xiaoyaozi absolutely refused to admit that he wanted to save that old man, Emperor Mingde, and that she was forced to do so.

Seeing that Luo Qianmo and the Demon Shadow Lord were locked in a fierce battle, with neither side able to gain the upper hand, Xiaoyaozi grabbed Fang Qingyou's pulse with one hand and Emperor Mingde's pulse with the other.

Soon, I felt like cursing.

This monstrous thing actually planted a mother-child Gu within Emperor Mingde's body!

He had guessed it was a Gu within a Gu, but he hadn't expected it to be a mother-child Gu.

It seems this strange thing came for the holy spring!

When the mother Gu is alive, it is absolutely undetectable in a person's body. Even he did not notice it at first.

Only when the mother Gu is on the verge of death, and the person who cast the Gu triggers the offspring Gu, will the offspring Gu grow out of the mother Gu's body.

This thing's poison skills are truly remarkable; this Gu is actually a Greedy Gu with extremely strong devouring ability!

If they were to be devoured by this Greedy Gu, both Emperor Mingde and Fang Qingyou would die, and the Holy Spring Mark would fall into the hands of that monstrous thing!

Having recognized the mother-child Gu, Xiaoyaozi released Fang Qingyou and Emperor Mingde. Two golden rays flew out from his hands, one heading towards Emperor Mingde and the other towards Fang Qingyou.

"Buzzing—" A buzzing sound could be heard, and when you looked again, you could see that a golden needle had been inserted into each of the vital acupoints on Emperor Mingde and Fang Qingyou's bodies.

The red light emanating from Emperor Mingde faded instantly, and Fang Qingyou's pale complexion quickly subsided.

"Master..." Fang Qingyou tried to speak, but before she could finish, she fainted.

"How dare you!" The Demon Shadow Lord was unable to break free from Luo Qianmo's entanglement and, seeing that his control over the Zi Gu had diminished considerably, flew into a rage.

"You damned devil, not only did you scheme against me, but you also dared to harm my disciple. How could this divine physician let your conspiracy succeed!" Xiaoyaozi pointed at the Demon Shadow Lord and cursed loudly.

Over the years, he had encountered this ghostly thing more than once. Just a few days ago, he was also entangled by its minions and couldn't get away.

I originally thought he came for my medical skills, but now it seems he came for the sacred spring!

The Demon Lord's expression turned icy: "Xiaoyaozi, you little bastard, I advise you to hand that woman over to me immediately. Otherwise, with just one order from me, the master of this palace will change hands instantly!"

"Bullshit! You have no right to speak here!" Xiaoyaozi cursed.

"Mo'er, your father and Qingyou are no longer in mortal danger. You must finish this evil thing quickly, and we'll leave immediately!"

Luo Qianmo didn't say anything, but he felt a slight sense of relief.

"You think you can leave? None of you will leave today!" Demon Lord roared, and suddenly many guards wielding swords rushed into the Tranquil Heart Hall, with Luo Qianhao leading the charge.

Seeing Luo Qianmo locked in combat with the Demon Shadow Lord, and noticing Xiaoyaozi and Fang Qingyou beside Emperor Mingde, Luo Qianhao curled his lips into a sinister sneer and raised his sword high: "Soldiers, listen to my command! The Eighth Prince is audacious and reckless, intending to murder his father and rebel. I will cleanse the palace of evil ministers on behalf of my father and execute them without mercy!"

"kill!"

Seeing the palace guards treating them like prey, Xiaoyaozi's lips twitched involuntarily.

Grabbing Emperor Mingde in one hand and Fang Qingyou in the other, they prepared to leave through the secret passage...

"Bang—" Outside the palace gate, the huge palace gate was smashed open, and She Ruifeng led thousands of troops into the palace.

This battle was so fierce that the sky darkened and rivers of blood flowed.

This battle lasted for three days.

Three days later, Luo Qianmo held a slender figure in his arms.

The person in his arms had a face as white as paper, and seemed to be asleep, but their breath was extremely faint.

Luo Qianmo's eyes held tenderness, but also worry.

On that day, he quelled Luo Qianhao's rebellion and also subdued the Demon Shadow Lord.

The bloodshed he experienced over the three days left a deep impression on him, but what worried him most was Fang Qingyou.

In order to save Emperor Mingde, Fang Qingyou's body and the mark of the Holy Spring were damaged by the Zi Gu. Unless she finds the real Holy Spring, Fang Qingyou's life will be in danger.

Emperor Mingde, on the other hand, is currently only in a coma because the Gu worm has left his body. He is out of danger and will wake up one day with careful treatment.

"Youyou, we will definitely find the Holy Spring. You must wait for me, wait for me to awaken you."

Luo Qianmo's eyes held an undisguised sense of self-reproach.

If he had known beforehand that Emperor Mingde's life would be exchanged for Fang Qingyou, he certainly wouldn't have agreed.

Emperor Mingde was important to him, but without Fang Qingyou, his life was shrouded in darkness.

She was only unconscious for three days, but he felt it was three hundred years.

The palace had already changed hands, and She Ruifeng and his other subordinates all wanted to support him as the new emperor and rule the world.

Luo Qianhao and Consort Qin were also executed for treason.

Everything that had been blocking his way was gone, but he was no longer interested in that high and mighty position.

He originally ascended to that position to seek revenge, and now that he has achieved everything, his heart is empty.

Without a true love, even if the whole world were handed to him, he wouldn't feel happy at all.

His only thought now is to get to Zichu Kingdom as soon as possible and find the Holy Spring to revive Fang Qingyou.

Behind Luo Qianmo's carriage, another carriage followed.

The person sitting in the carriage was none other than Xiaoyaozi, but Xiaoyaozi had a bitter face at the moment.

He wasn't lying; only the Holy Spring could save Fang Qingyou. The key was that he didn't know how to save her, or rather, he didn't know what the consequences would be if Fang Qingyou got close to the Holy Spring.

If the legend is true, and the result of the Holy Spring Mark approaching the Holy Spring is the disappearance of the Holy Spring Mark, then Fang Qingyou...

Xiaoyaozi simply couldn't imagine whether Luo Qianmo would kill his uncle if something happened to Fang Qingyou.

He now only hopes that if the legend of the Holy Spring is true, his sister might wake up. At that time, would Luo Qianmo, for his sister's sake, perhaps not blame him?
