Chapter 1440: Love Poison Acts Up

Editor: Atlas Studios

Su Xiaoxiao received a letter from a pigeon and knew that her grandfather was about to reach the capital. She couldn’t wait to go out of the city to welcome him.

Wei Ting naturally followed suit.

Wei Xiaobao was left at home with a few aunties. When she woke up, she was fought over by her aunts.

It couldn’t be helped. Wei Xiyue was too thin when she was young and they didn’t dare to snatch her , afraid that they would hurt her.

Wei Xiaobao was a proper young heroine! There was no psychological pressure when snatching her!

After Wei Xiaobao finished transcending the tribulation under the demonic claws of the various aunts, a few strands of her hair stood on end.

Finally, the aunts couldn’t take it anymore and went to sleep.

The night that belonged to Wei Xiaobao had arrived.

“Abba-Abba.”

Wei Xiaobao stretched out her chubby arm towards Yun Shuang and Jiang Guanchao’s courtyard.

Xing’er first carried Wei Xiaobao to Yun Shuang. “Palace Lord Yun, I’ll leave Xiaobao to you.”

“Yeah.”

Yun Shuang carried the little fellow over dotingly.

Wei Xiaobao plunged into Yun Shuang’s arms. “Wu wu ~”

Yun Shuang weighed the little fellow in her arms. “She’s heavier again.”

Wei Xiaobao: “Woo!”

Yun Shuang fed Wei Xiaobao some water.

Wei Xiaobao drank perfunctorily. She threw the milk bottle to the ground with her chubby hand and turned to look out.

Yun Shuang knew that the little fellow was looking for Jiang Guanchao again.

Thinking of her relationship with Jiang Guanchao, a trace of discomfort flashed across Yun Shuang’s eyes.

However, she could not stop Wei Xiaobao from reaching out and struggling. Yun Shuang could only take a deep breath and carry her out.

“Shuang’er!”

When Ji Minglou saw Yun Shuang, his eyes lit up. He thought that she was here to look for him and that she had changed her mind.

Wei Xiaobao stretched her invisible neck and roared fiercely at Ji Minglou, who was blocking her vision. “Wuwa!”

Ji Minglou shuddered!

Was this child shouting so loudly?!

“I’m here to look for Jiang Guanchao.”

Yun Shuang said.

Ji Minglou’s expression froze.

“Is he there?”

Yun Shuang asked.

How did Ji Minglou know if Jiang Guanchao was there, since he did not go to his room?

Ji Minglou said patiently, “I’ll ask.”

“Wuuwa!”

Wei Xiaobao glared at him fiercely.

Yun Shuang said, “Don’t stand in her way. She wants to find him herself.”

Ji Minglou was speechless.

Yun Shuang placed Wei Xiaobao under the corridor.

Wei Xiaobao crawled over herself, came to the threshold, and pushed open the unlatched door.

“Abba-Abba!”

“Wuuwa!”

“Woah?”

Wei Xiaobao tilted her head and crawled over the threshold on her hands and knees, looking for Jiang Guanchao in the house.

Yun Shuang walked in.

The house was empty. Even the luggage and the alliance sword were gone.

He had left without a word.

Ji Minglou also entered the house. Looking at the house that no longer had any traces, he felt relieved.

It was best if Jiang Guanchao left tactfully.

Ji Minglou squatted down and looked at Wei Xiaobao gently. “Xiaobao, can Grandpa Hall Master play with you?”

Wei Xiaobao clenched her fists fiercely. “Woo!”

Ji Minglou was stunned.

Yun Shuang picked Wei Xiaobao up.

Wei Xiaobao pouted and cried!

“Xiaobao, don’t cry. Your throat will hurt from crying… Be good…”

“Wuwa—Wuwa—Wuwa—”

Wei Xiaobao cried to death.

Yun Shuang immediately lost. “Okay, okay, okay. I’ll take you to find him… I’ll take you to find him!”

Yun Shuang carried Wei Xiaobao out of the Wei family.

Actually, she did not know where Jiang Guanchao had gone.

Previously, she was trying her luck, but this time…

“Why are you following me?”

Yun Shuang looked at Ji Minglou beside her.

Ji Ming’s corridor said, “I’ll go with you.”

Yun Shuang said, “Then you go east, and I’ll go west. It’ll be faster if we split up.”

After being abandoned by Jiang Guanchao, Ji Minglou was also abandoned by Yun Shuang.

–

In the dark room, one could not even see their fingers.

Jiang Guanchao slowly woke up from a dizziness.

He moved his body and realized that his bones were sore and his meridians were blocked. He could not muster any strength.

In addition, his hands and feet were firmly tied with ropes. It was unknown where they were connected.

“You’re awake?”

A beautiful woman’s voice slowly sounded from the depths of the darkness.

Jiang Guanchao turned his head and magnified his eyesight in the darkness.

A woman in red and waving a carved incense fan walked towards him on thick Japanese logs.

She raised her fair wrist slightly, and the gauze curtain of the night pearl fell. A hazy and elegant light flowed in the dark room.

Her face was covered in overly fair makeup, her eyes were beautiful, and her lips were blood-red and delicate.

She stopped by Jiang Guanchao’s bed and said in Central Plains language with almost no accent, “It’s earlier than I thought.”

Jiang Guanchao looked at her emotionlessly. “Japanese Witch?”

“Hehehe…”

The woman covered her face with her fan and smiled like a silver bell.

Her figure instantly disappeared into the darkness.

Laughter sounded from all directions in the room, making it impossible to accurately determine where she was.

“You guessed who I am so quickly. Alliance Master Jiang, you’ve really impressed me.”

This woman had a bewitching technique.

However, her level was slightly inferior to Ghost Concubine of the Walkabout Sect.

Jiang Guanchao was not even afraid of Ghost Concubine’s charm technique, so he naturally would not fall for her trick easily.

The Japanese Witch appeared again. “The bewitching technique is indeed useless to you.”

She restrained her smile. “Many years ago, your master, Nie Yangshan, was defeated by my grandfather. After that, my grandfather gradually weakened because of his serious injuries. When my grandfather was alive, I was the person he doted on the most. He taught me all the secret techniques of Japanese. However, he also had a condition, which was to fight Nie Yangshan’s disciples again on his behalf!

“He didn’t win against Nie Yangshan. The two of them… lost.”

Shock flashed across Jiang Guanchao’s eyes.

He had always thought that his master had suffered a crushing defeat in that duel. His master thought so too.

So… they were evenly matched?

The Japanese Witch bent down and lifted his chin with her folding fan. “I thought so before I came to the Central Plains, but after seeing you, I changed my mind. I want to conquer you and make you loyal to Japan!”

Jiang Guanchao glanced at her coldly. “Get lost as far as you can!”

The Japanese Witch caught his internal force. “I’m even more satisfied with you for being able to use such strength after being poisoned by my voodoo. I’ll give you a night to consider. Are you going to be my person or a ghost of Thousand Mountain Island?”

With that, the Japanese Witch was about to leave.

As soon as she turned around, she heard an almost imperceptible movement.

She frowned and turned around, her red-nailed fingertip pressed against Jiang Guanchao’s heart.

After a while, she smiled. “Oh? You were even poisoned by the Japanese Love Poison? You’ve concealed it very well. I almost didn’t notice. Now, the poison is acting up.”

Jiang Guanchao’s face began to turn red.

The Japanese Witch looked down at him and instructed in Japanese.

Immediately, two Japanese maids bowed and entered. They knelt behind the Japanese Witch and kowtowed piously.

The Japanese Witch said to the two of them, “Detoxify him.”

The two maids stood up, climbed onto the bed, and began to undress.
