Muyanâs lips lightly tick up, her smile carefree, âWhy does it have to be so troublesome?â
Saying that, under Bai Yichenâs bewildered look, she takes out a porcelain bottle.
The cover on the dungeonâs entrance is lifted open, and Muyan places the porcelain bottle on her palm, slowly rousing her Mysterious Energy with it.
Soon, they see a wisp of white smoke spiraling up and out from inside the bottle, snaking itâs way into the dungeon.
About a tea time later.
Muyan discards the bottle, and claps her hands, âAlright, letâs go in!ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âWait, you could get...â
Before Bai Yichen could say the word âspottedâ, he sees a scene that renders him dumbstruck.
All the guards in the dungeon, each and every one of them has actually fallen down to the floor, sleeping like dead pigs.
These guards, each of them is at the peak of Earth Stage or higher.
The two heads even have higher cultivations compared to Bai Yichen.
Such a group of death-ready warriors, put them outside and they can make people go pale at the mere mention of them â yet in spite of that, they canât even endure a tea time under Muyanâs draught.
With a gasp of surprise, Bai Yichen realizes why Jin Wangye insists on marrying her as Wangfei â even when he knows perfectly well that Muyan is unwilling, fully aware that she has a child.
The entire dungeon has been completely cleared out by a bottle of draught from her.
The pair quickly finds the imprisoned Lou Beiyu.
They see the young man on the bed, sound asleep as heâs lying on his back, even letting out tiny snores, and thereâs a suspicious liquid flowing out of the corners of his mouth.
A smile slowly blossoms on Muyanâs face.
Bai Yichen sees that bright smile on the girlâs face, but he feels a chill on his body. He canât help but step back.
The next moment, he hears a âbangâ.
Lou Beiyu, whoâs sleeping without a care in the world, is unceremoniously kicked out from the bed, falling down to bite the mud like a dog.
âWho, who is it? Which bastard dares to mount a sneak attack against this Prince!â
Lou Beiyu jumps up from the ground, blustering and yelling as he assumes an aggressive pose.
Paâ!
Thereâs a slap on the back of his head.
A sweet-sounding female voice reaches his ears, âWho are you calling a bastard?â
Hearing this voice, Lou Beiyu first goes rigid from head to foot.
Then he suddenly turns around.
Seeing the young womanâs absolutely beautiful features that are almost within reach, the rims of Lou Beiyuâs eyes immediately turn red.
âMa... Master? Is it really you? I... Iâm not dreaming?â
Muyan watches him with a smile that isnât a smile, âI see that you have just been dreaming happily!â
âWuuu, wuuu... Master, Master, youâve finally come to save me! Your apprentice has been so scared! That Jin Wangye is a pervert, Master must never ever marry that deviant... I donât want that kind of Master-in-law!â
Lou Beiyu pounces over to hug Muyanâs calf, crying his liver and intestines out.
Muyanâs lifts up her foot and disdainfully shakes him off, âAlright, stop bawling.â
âIâm warning you, this is the last time Iâm coming to your rescue. Next time, if youâre so useless as to get captured by other people...â
Lou Beiyuâs eyes are gleaming with tears, âMaster, youâll still save me, right?â
Muyan coldly sends him a sidelong glance, her smile is gloomy, âWhy donât you guess?â
Lou Beiyu shudders and trembles, then he continues to cry out loud without tears, âBut arenât I an innocent collateral damage? That Jin Wangye kidnapped me because heâs pining for Master!â
â*Cough, cough*, anyway, Master, youâre not really going to get threatened by that Jin Wangye to marry him, are you? Donât! This apprentice â I can break my head, I can spill my blood, but I absolutely cannot hold a funeral procession and burial for Masterâs lifelong happiness!â
Muyan pats his head and brings its closer, and she speaks with a grim smile: âAfter we get back, immediately look for Yan Haotian and report to him. Get hammered out and forged through the Ink Campâs final tests, or Iâll kick you out of this apprenticeship.â
