Her destiny stolen? The Divine Witch Ancestor has returned!

Because Gu Chen wouldn't let go of Wu Zhao, and he was soaking wet, the doctor was at a loss.

Seeing Gu Chen's pale lips and furrowed brows, Wu Zhao patted his hand: "I'm back now, let me go."

"The doctor needs to change your clothes and examine your legs."

Gu Chen, who was unconscious, seemed to hear what she said. After a while, Wu Zhao noticed that the force in her hand had loosened.

She carefully lowered his hand and said to the doctor and Ziyao, "Then I'll go out first, you can change his clothes."

After she came out of the tent, the doctor and Ziyao exchanged a complicated glance.

"Is it her?"

Zi Yao nodded. "You saw it too, Jin Yao. The patriarch treats her very specially, so you'd better be respectful to her. She... is also very special."

"How special is it?" Jin Yao curled his lip. "Isn't it just two eyes and a mouth? Besides having a pretty face, what else can compare to—"

He swallowed back what he was about to say, and said somewhat unconvinced, "Anyway, I didn't see anything special about her. All I know is that she made the head of the family into the state he is now."

"Jin Yao!" Zi Yao lowered her voice and warned him, "Don't say I didn't warn you, if you offend her, no one can protect you! Don't expect the family head to treat you specially because of your sister, you'd better not do anything reckless!"

Jin Yao rolled his eyes. "My sister has been through thick and thin with the family head for so many years. Do you think I'm stupid?"

The two quickly changed Gu Chen into clean clothes.

After examining his body, Jin Yao left the tent with a frown.

Wu Zhao was standing outside, examining the finger bone in his hand.

The finger bone only emitted bursts of heat when it approached Peach Blossom Spring, but now it is completely still.

Could this finger bone have some kind of sensitivity to special spaces?

She didn't see any of the bad things the black bear had mentioned in the mountains. Could it be that they gave up on finding the finger bone and something important?

What is that small statue in Shen Jiaojiao's hand?

She noticed this as soon as she got back: anyone who got close to Shen Jiaojiao would immediately be tainted by her yin energy.

The yin energy was consuming people's fortune and nourishing Shen Jiaojiao.

Wu Zhao was completely baffled, as if a pair of eyes had been watching her from the shadows, noticing her movements and making a decision in advance.

Since her strength hasn't been restored, she feels somewhat constrained in everything she does.

It seems necessary to make a trip to the Wu family ancestral hall...

"Grandma, why aren't you resting? What are you doing standing here?" Wu Xingyun came out of another tent, saw her, and walked over to ask, "How is Patriarch Gu?"

Wu Zhao then asked, "When will the Wu family's ancestral shrine be open for worship again?"

"Huh? You, how did you know?" Wu Xingyun asked, somewhat surprised.

Before she could speak, Jin Yao and Zi Yao came out of the tent.

Seeing Wu Zhao standing outside talking to Wu Xingyun, Zi Yao quickly pulled the displeased Jin Yao away.

He said, "Miss Wu, the head of the family is already asleep. Jin Yao just checked him and there are no external injuries. He's just a little weak and needs to rest."

"Then let him rest well and eat something after he wakes up." Wu Zhao breathed a sigh of relief; she still had Gu Chen's purple aura on her body.

The purple aura seemed to have acquired Gu Chen's consciousness, clinging to her and refusing to let go.

She had just spent a lot of spiritual energy taking Peach Fairy back through time, and her meridians were now completely empty.

So she was happy to be entangled with the purple aura as long as it didn't leave.

Jin Yao, somewhat displeased with her words, said, "What are we waiting for? If you ask me, we should hurry up and send the family head home. How can he possibly recover properly in this place?"

Sensing the hidden meaning in his words, Wu Zhao turned to look at him.

Jin Yao, with his handsome features, noticed her gaze and immediately looked back at her.

His face showed a hint of anger and displeasure, and his gaze towards Wu Zhao was quite impolite.

"Jin Yao?" Wu Zhao looked at his face with amusement, realizing that he was standing up for the people around him.

So Gu Chen is really that popular, Wu Zhao thought.

My feelings became complicated, and an indescribable feeling gripped her.

Zi Yao grabbed Jin Yao and covered his mouth, explaining, "Miss Wu, please ignore him. He's gone crazy from treating patients at the hospital, please don't hold it against him!"

"It's alright." Wu Zhao found him quite interesting, so she said, "Don't worry, I won't be angry. After all, he's just concerned about Gu Chen."

His facial features indicate that he has a biological older sister, but the fates of the two siblings are somewhat unfavorable.

Their parents died in an accident when they were young, and the two of them grew up relying on each other.

They are both very important to each other.

"Your sister... likes Gu Chen?" Wu Zhao raised an eyebrow. "But he's so handsome and of such high status; according to you, he's the perfect choice for marriage. It's normal for someone to like him..."

Nodding in agreement, Wu Zhao continued, "However, your sister's lucky star isn't him. Don't get it wrong, or you'll ruin your sister's life."

Jin Yao pulled Zi Yao away and glared at him. "I don't believe you can heal the family head's leg, and I don't believe what you say. I have absolutely no goodwill towards someone like you who schemes so hard to get close to my family head."

“I’ve seen far too many people like you vying for the position of the head of the family’s wife around the head of the family—”

Seeing his indignant expression, Wu Zhao couldn't help but laugh.

"Yes, I covet the purple aura of your family head—"

Before she could finish speaking, Gu Chen's cold voice came from inside the tent: "Zi Yao, take him away."

Zi Yao was startled and immediately pulled Jin Yao away.

Wu Zhao felt a little awkward and wanted to slip away together.

Gu Chen seemed to be able to see her, and said with a slight smile, "Zhao Zhao, come in."

"I have something I'd like to talk to you about alone."

Wu Zhao could only wave to Wu Xingyun before walking closer to the tent.

Gu Chen had already sat up on his own inside the tent.

His face was still very pale, but the beauty mark at the corner of his eye was bright red, like blood.

Seeing Wu Zhao walk in, Gu Chen's eyes revealed a hint of a smile: "Jin Yao was just saying it casually, don't take it to heart."

“His sister is also my bodyguard, her name is Lan Yao. She is my assistant and is responsible for my daily life. However, I went back to Haicheng to recuperate this time, so I left her at the Gu family's old residence.”

As if explaining something, Gu Chen looked at Wu Zhao after speaking.

Wu Zhao touched his hair. "Is that so? Then let me meet her sometime."

The siblings have been with Gu Chen for a long time, so perhaps they can learn some things about the Gu family from her.

There are some past events about Gu Chen that he himself is unwilling to mention.

“You… have been gone for a long time.” Gu Chen looked at her, his lips slightly pursed. “I’ve been looking for you for a long time.”

He lowered his eyelids, looking somewhat dejected.

Gu Chen's face was very pale, but his lips were unusually bright red.

Looking at him, Wu Zhao swallowed hard.

His appearance actually made her feel hungry...

Taking two steps toward him, Wu Zhao said, "I'm sorry, I didn't expect I'd be gone for so long—"

Suddenly, a series of urgent shouts came from outside the tent.

Then she heard Mo Dahai's panicked voice say, "Big, big boss, something's happened!"

"The people who went to find Shen Jiaojiao's cameraman came back and said that Shen Jiaojiao's cameraman..."

"he died!"
