Little Sorcerer, Divine Doctor-Chapter 906 - 58: Branded by Crime

Actually, even Dugu Xiu himself couldn’t figure out whether he was more worried about Yun Sheng’s safety or the safety of the Crown Prince Mansion.

But even if Dugu Xiu truly wanted to take Yun Sheng to East River, he couldn’t really do so; there was much public opinion in the court, and there had never been a precedent in Hou Qin for taking women to the battlefield.

"Later, go to Chi Bi to get the medicine, and remember, you’d better behave before I return, or be careful about Donghuang Lingling’s life," Gu Duxiu said in a low voice, his face calm, whispering beside Yun Sheng.

Only Yun Sheng could hear Dugu Xiu’s words; his tone was icy, but to others, it sounded like a lover’s farewell, full of deep affection.

The women standing by watched with jealousy.

Qing Qiang lowered her eyes, smirking inwardly, Yun Sheng, let’s see how you act haughtily in the Crown Prince Mansion once the Crown Prince leaves the city.

"Remember, when I return, I don’t want to hear any bad news, or whoever causes trouble will be immediately kicked out of the Crown Prince Mansion," Dugu Xiu finished reminding and had another round of farewells with the concubines; the scene seemed very harmonious.

The next day, Dugu Xiu set out to quell the unrest in East River.

Yun Sheng found Madam Chi Bi.

"Here are seven elixirs; one a day can temporarily suppress the onset of Soul Dreaming," Madam Chi Bi took out a bottle of medicine and tossed it to Yun Sheng.

Yun Sheng eagerly opened the medicine bottle, inside were seven red elixirs.

Yun Sheng didn’t take them immediately but sniffed them.

With her sensitivity to medicinal herbs, she couldn’t discern what these elixirs were made from; they had a faint fishy smell under her nose.

"Don’t bother looking; you can’t possibly refine this medicine yourself; it’s my exclusive secret recipe," Madam Chi Bi sneered coldly.

Since Dugu Xiu was not around, she no longer felt the need to pretend to be friendly with Yun Sheng.

Seeing that bottle of elixirs, Madam Chi Bi felt like being stabbed with needles.

Only she knew that these seven elixirs were not ordinary; they were refined by Dugu Xiu using his own blood, and they could allow Yun Sheng to temporarily escape the pain of being away from Dugu Xiu.

Dugu Xiu personally drew blood for these elixirs.

But once seven days passed, if Dugu Xiu didn’t return, the Soul Dreaming in Yun Sheng’s body would flare up, and as twelve hours passed, with the onset of Soul Dreaming, all her organs would shatter and she would die.

Madam Chi Bi’s feelings were very conflicted; she wanted Yun Sheng to suffer and die painfully, yet she didn’t want Dugu Xiu to encounter any trouble in East River.

"Chi Bi, it shows you love Dugu Xiu very much; since that’s the case, why don’t you simply resolve my Soul Dreaming? I guarantee I’ll leave Hou Qin immediately," Yun Sheng said, looking at Chi Bi’s eyes filled with a desire to devour her whole.

If she encountered some woman clinging to Ye Huli, she would make sure that woman left as far as possible.

No wait, why would she care about Ye Huli.

Yun Sheng was startled by her unexpected thought.

"Hmph, I wish you would die right away, but then the Crown Prince would still kill me himself. Don’t bother with any tricks on me; I won’t fall for them." Madam Chi Bi knew Yun Sheng was very cunning too, and was unwilling to speak more with her, directly issuing an eviction order. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Yun Sheng hadn’t found the opportunity to inquire about the way back to the Eight Desolates continent, and was kicked out.

Returning to Taxue Garden, Donghuang Lingling had just finished meditating; these days, Yun Sheng tried using the Medical Soul Divine Needle to channel Donghuang Lingling’s internal meridians.

Donghuang Lingling’s previously damaged Magic Soul had gradually improved.

But all of this was done secretly from Dugu Xiu; Donghuang Lingling’s magic power had gradually recovered, able to perform the most basic Beginner level magic.

Lingling saw Yun Sheng and hurriedly asked, "How is it? Did you find out anything?"

"Chi Bi is tight-lipped, couldn’t ask anything, but with seven elixirs for Soul Dreaming, I need to study them well over the next few days," Yun Sheng didn’t plan to take the elixirs immediately.

According to Dugu Xiu, the Soul Dreaming in her body would flare up after not seeing him for twelve hours a day, so Yun Sheng planned to use these elixirs only when the body felt most uncomfortable.

This way, although she only had seven elixirs, she could hold on for at least fourteen days.

Over these fourteen days, regardless of whether Dugu Xiu could return normally, or whether Yun Sheng could find a cure, she would be more flexible.

But this time, Yun Sheng miscalculated.

Dugu Xiu had only been gone for three days when a group of palace guards broke into Taxue Garden.

"Donghuang Sheng, you colluded with the enemy, plotted with Master Mo Yin to rebel against the nation; the Emperor has ordered to take you into custody."

The guards didn’t allow any arguments, and seized Yun Sheng.

"You’re slandering us, release the princess," Donghuang Lingling, in panic, tried to resist, but Yun Sheng shook her head to stop her.

The matter of Master Mo Yin had indeed been discovered.

Yun Sheng secretly persuaded Master Mo Yin to leave Hou Qin, already anticipating the possibility of being discovered, just not expecting it to happen so quickly.

"What is going on?" Chi Bi and Li Huali, among others, rushed over upon hearing the commotion.

The Crown Prince had just left, and someone came to the mansion to arrest, which inevitably seemed too coincidental.

"Hmph, Master Mo Yin isn’t missing; someone can verify that before Mo Yin disappeared, he met with Donghuang Sheng." Qing Qiang and Qing Meng, the siblings, swaggered over.

Seeing Yun Sheng tied up by the guards, the siblings looked gleeful.

Earlier, they secretly captured Hu Sheng, originally wanting to extract incriminating information against Donghuang Sheng from Hu Sheng; but no matter how Hu Sheng was tortured, he wouldn’t say a word.

Qing Qiang was furious over it.

To calm his sister’s rage and to preserve the life of pretty Hu Sheng, Qing Meng went to plea with Empress Qing, hoping she would help get a good bow from Master Mo Yin.

Upon searching, Qing Meng found Mo Yin actually gone.

Mo Yin not only vanished, but also demolished all the divine weapons he had forged for Hou Qin over the years; he even took away all the records related to elven forging from his residence.

This resulted in significant losses for Hou Qin.

Emperor of Post Qin Dugu Sheng was furious upon learning of the news.

He immediately ordered a thorough investigation into the reason for Mo Yin’s departure, to capture him back.

But Dugu Sheng’s order came too late, as Mo Yin had already left Hou Qin many days ago and returned to Xianju Country.

It was then that Qing Qiang recalled the Ruyi Bow, linking events together, and realized the timing of Yun Sheng obtaining the Ruyi Bow coincided with the disappearance of Master Mo Yin.

She immediately sent Qing Meng to inquire with the Beidou Auction’s auctioneer, and upon investigation, found indeed Master Mo Yin exchanged the Ruyi Bow after receiving an anonymous letter from someone.

The mysterious bidder turned out to be Donghuang Sheng.
