With her spatial ability to raise beast husbands, the wicked female becomes the darling of the group

Chapter 291 Something is wrong

Su Muyao's expression shifted slightly as she listened to his voice.

Compared to Jiang Mochuan, who had a grudge against her, Yue Wuhen was like an invisible person with no presence. There was no grudge or estrangement between the two of them; they were just strangers.

Since he's a stranger, why does his voice feel so familiar?

Su Muyao frowned slightly, looking puzzled.

The Empress said, "Now that Mu Yao has arrived, let's begin."

"Yes."

After receiving the order, Yue Wuhen began preparing to remove the curse.

He prepared a brazier on the ground, burning some special herbs inside. Then he stepped forward and cut a spot on the empress's arm. At the same time, with a flick of his long, slender, white fingers, he placed several special needles on the empress's body, seemingly sealing several spots.

Then he used another dagger to cut his finger, and his blood dripped into the brazier, mingling with the unique herbs.

His blood was still dripping onto a bell.

The moment his finger bled, a peculiar fragrance wafted out, a fragrance so unique it was almost mesmerizing.

Su Muyao smelled the fragrance from the side, and her vision blurred for a moment. She felt so thirsty from the aroma that she couldn't help but want to go over and do something.

"Jingle Bell……"

Immediately afterwards, the clear sound of a bell brought Su Muyao back to her senses.

Su Muyao saw the silver bell in Yue Wuhen's hand; it made a sound when shaken gently.

The system said, "Host, this young master of the Moon Clan is amazing. He can actually use his blood to drive this ancient magic artifact, the Exorcising Bell. His blood is very likely the legendary blood of the God of Wushan, the supreme blood, which can suppress all evil spirits in the world."

"No wonder the evil soul in your memory was so afraid of Yue Wuhen, even though he was so beautiful and she was so greedy and lustful, she didn't dare to get close to him."

"That makes sense now."

“However, forcibly activating this exorcism bell is still a bit of a stretch for him with his current abilities and cultivation level. I can feel that he is being attacked by the backlash, and his body must be very uncomfortable.”

Hearing the system's words in her mind, Su Muyao was also somewhat surprised, "Is removing the curse so difficult?"

The system said, "Host, I previously examined the Empress's body through you and discovered that this is no ordinary Gu worm. Forcibly removing the Gu without finding the mother Gu is extremely risky. It is very likely that in the process of removing the Gu, we will anger the Gu worm and cause it to kill the Empress directly."

"Yue Wuhen used this method to remove the poison and save the Empress without harming her body."

Before long, Su Muyao saw a huge bulge on the Empress's arm that seemed to be moving slowly.

About fifteen minutes later, the worm flew out from the wound on the Queen's arm.

When Su Muyao saw the strange insect, she got goosebumps and felt nauseous.

Yue Wuhen took out a unique bottle and put the Gu worm inside.

Looking at the bottle covered in patterns, Su Muyao's expression changed; there were sealing runes on the bottle.

Yue Wuhen wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and Qingyue said, "It's alright, the Gu has been removed. Your Highness can treat His Majesty's wounds."

Su Muyao stepped forward and used her wood-type ability to quickly heal her grandmother's wounds.

During the process of removing the curse, her grandmother had already fallen into a deep sleep. She checked her grandmother's pulse and found that it was normal; she had simply fallen asleep.

She looked at Yue Wuhen again and found that his face was extremely pale and weak, and there was a faint trace of blood at the corner of his mouth. Remembering what the system had said, she said, "Young Master Yue, let me help you adjust your body."

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Your Highness."

"It's no trouble. It's just a piece of cake."

The two spoke with politeness and distance, but this politeness and distance made Su Muyao feel more comfortable.

There's no need to deal with any complicated relationships.

Su Muyao stepped forward to take Yue Wuhen's pulse and found that Yue Wuhen's blood and qi were churning, clearly indicating that he had suffered a backlash from forcing himself to exert himself.

She quickly infused his wood-based powers into his body to heal his body, which had been damaged by the backlash.

Gradually, Yue Wuhen's condition stabilized, and Su Muyao withdrew her hand.

"Thank you, Your Highness Princess."

"No need for thanks, but aren't you going to kill this Gu worm? Do you want to take it back?" This kind of harmful Gu worm should be eradicated.

Su Muyao had just wanted to ask this question.

Yue Wuhen lowered his head, a faint purple glint appearing in his eyes, and explained in a low voice, "This Gu worm can be used to find the location of the mother Gu, and also to find the mastermind behind it."

Su Muyao suddenly realized, "You can help me find it?"

When she entered the palace before, the time-reversal spell didn't work.

It's as if something has been deliberately erased.

Moreover, her current time-reversal magic cannot explore things too far back in time.

"can."

When Su Muyao spoke to Yue Wuhen up close, she looked up at his eyes and noticed that they were extremely beautiful peach blossom eyes.

Especially when it has a purple sheen, it is as beautiful and clear as purple glass.

Su Muyao was momentarily stunned, then lowered her head.

A short while later, the Empress woke up and saw Su Muyao and Yue Wuhen talking normally, a look of relief appearing in her eyes.

Hearing the voice, Su Muyao turned around and stepped forward, saying, "Your Majesty, you're awake?"

"Yes, I feel like my body has suddenly become much lighter."

"It's like my body has suddenly become younger."

It's not that feeling of decline I had before, but a feeling full of vitality.

The Empress was very grateful to Yue Wuhen, but Yue Wuhen naturally dared not take credit for it.

When the Empress learned that Yue Wuhen could help find the Mother Gu, she asked him to help her find the real culprit.

The Empress had previously uncovered some clues and dealt with some people in the harem, but it seems that the real mastermind is still around.

The Empress summoned the Grand Commander of the Palace and ordered him to mobilize manpower to assist Yue Wuhen in investigating the matter.

Su Muyao chatted with the Empress for a while. After a while, just as Su Muyao was about to leave, Song Mama received urgent news and quickly came in to report: "Your Majesty, Liu Mengyan has confessed."

"The assassination attempt at the palace banquet was something she conspired with the King of Chu to do."

"She also revealed some details. Now she is on her last breath. She asked to see Her Highness the Princess, saying that there is a secret that can only be told to Her Highness the Princess."

The Empress immediately said, "No, this Liu Mengyan is cunning and can withstand all kinds of cruel punishments. It's hard to guarantee that she doesn't have any special secret methods to harm people."

No one knows what the spider orc did in its desperate struggle when it died.

The Empress cannot allow Su Muyao to take risks.

"Send up the confession first."

After reading it, the Empress was extremely angry. "What a Liu Mengyan! What a spider beastman! They want to usurp the throne!"

After the Empress finished reading it, she handed it to Su Muyao.

Su Muyao glanced at it; it detailed everything Liu Mengyan had done.

Three years ago, Liu Mengyan killed the real daughter of the Liu family. She took Liu Mengyan's identity and came to the Beast Emperor City, deliberately targeting her. She also wanted to marry Liu Mengyan's beast husband in order to gain power and become the empress.

It's written in quite detail here, including how Liu Mengyan harmed people, and it doesn't differ much from what they investigated.

But Su Muyao instinctively felt that something was wrong.

"System, do you think this confession is true?"

The system said, "It's the mix of truth and falsehood that makes it hard to discern their true purpose, but she's definitely after you."

Su Muyao said with a serious expression, "It seems I still need to see her in person."

Although the Empress opposed Su Muyao's meeting with Liu Mengyan, Su Muyao felt that only by going there in person could she find out Liu Mengyan's true purpose.

……

In prison
Su Muyao arrived outside the cell where Liu Mengyan was being held. Looking at the barely alive Liu Mengyan inside, she said coldly, "Didn't you want to see me? Now that I'm here, say what you have to say."
