He found nothing in Nanzhao. By chance, he met a sorcerer from the Jade Nation. That sorcerer liked his culinary skills very much and wanted to keep him by his side. He originally planned to refuse, but the sorcerer told him, “Aren’t you looking for your son? Follow me, I’ll bring you to the Sorcerer Clan. There are many sorcerers with powerful sorcery power there. They might be able to divine it for you.”
Just for this divination, he came all the way to the Sorcerer Clan.
Unfortunately, that sorcerer was chased by his enemies and died on the way. He had fumbled his way over for the second half of the journey. Although he did not say it out loud, Yu Wan knew what was going on.
Yu Wan’s heart ached when she thought of him, a lonely old man, walking through the desert with a walking stick and a camel.
“Grandpa Bao…” Yu Wan choked.
“Alright, alright, let’s not talk about me anymore. What about you? What’s wrong with you? Why are you here? Also, those children…”
Yu Wan told him about the children’s background. When he heard that the three little fellows were Wan’er’s own, Chef Bao heaved a sigh of relief. However, other than heaving a sigh of relief, he could not help but feel sorry for them.
“Don’t worry about me, Grandpa Bao. I’m quite good,” Yu Wan said with a smile.
The three little fellows held wooden swords and practiced martial arts in the courtyard.
“Beat, beat, beat, beat!”
Smack!
Chef Bao looked at them with a rare warmth in his old eyes. Perhaps all suffering was cultivation. If even the Bodhisattva was tempted, he would be able to complete his merit.
It had been too long since they last met, and there were too many things she wanted to say. Yu Wan picked up the important things and roughly said about Yan Jiuchao’s illness. “…He was poisoned by Southern Xinjiang’s Poison Curse and the Fragrance of Hundred Miles. The two poisons repelled each other in his body for many years, and a freak combination of factors saved his life. After that, the Nanzhao’s Poison Curse was resolved, and the poison of the Fragrance of Hundred Miles could not be suppressed.”
Chef Bao said, “Wait, you’ve said Southern Xinjiang’s Poison Curse… I’ve heard of this. It’s said that it will be passed down to their descendants. Are the children alright?”
Yu Wan smiled. “They’ve all been absorbed by the Gu King. They’re fine.” She did not know how Little Gu did it. In short, the three little fellows were indeed safe and sound.
Yu Wan continued, “To detoxify the poison of the Fragrance of Hundred Miles, we need four types of medicinal primer. We’ve already obtained the first three. We’re only short of the Sorcerer King’s tears. By the way, the man Mu Qing carried just now was the Sorcerer King. That nine-year-old child, Zhou Jin, is his youngest son.”
Chef Bao said, “The youngest son? Doesn’t the Sorcerer King only have one son? His biological mother…”
Yu Wan said, “Not the Sorcerer Queen, but a member of the Sacred Clan.”
“I see…” Chef Bao nodded thoughtfully. He had not been in the Sorcerer Clan for long, so he had not heard of some things. He only knew that the Sorcerer King and the Sorcerer Queen had a son. People called him His Highness Ye Yang. It was said that His Highness Ye Yang was twelve years old, but Zhou Jin was only nine years old. Moreover, his surname was Zhou. There must be something hidden.
Chef Bao did not ask about the Sorcerer King’s family matters. Instead, he said, “The Sorcerer Clan has not been peaceful these few days. Many guards have also come to the outer village. I heard from the waiter in the restaurant that a spy had infiltrated the city. I didn’t expect it to be you. You’re pregnant. When you stood at my door, I almost didn’t recognize you.”
Yu Wan was a little embarrassed. She smiled awkwardly and said, “Fortunately, we bumped into you. Otherwise, we would have been discovered.”
Chef Bao thought of something and looked around. “By the way, didn’t you say that your father and mother are also here? Why don’t I see them?”
At the mention of this, Yu Wan sighed. “Grandpa Bao, have you heard of a bottomless pit?”
“You mean… the divine pit on the Great Locust Hill?” Chef Bao asked.
“Divine pit?” Yu Wan was stunned.
Chef Bao said, “Ah, that’s what outsiders call it. That pit is extremely deep. The person who fell in has never come up. Why? Did your parents fall into the divine pit?”
“Yes.” Yu Wan nodded aggrievedly.
Chef Bao did not know how to comfort her. In his opinion, the chances of falling into the divine pit and climbing back up were not as high as the chances of the Second Madam coming back from the dead, although he did not even believe that she could come back from the dead.
Creak—
The closed door opened.
The Sorcerer King walked out with a pale face.
“Grandpa Bao, I’ll go take a look first.” With that, Yu Wan helped Chef Bao to sit on the stone bench and walked to the Second Madam’s room.
“Your Majesty, Sorcerer King,” Yu Wan greeted.
The Sorcerer King was wearing a wide cloak, a hat, and a pair of silk gloves. He tried his best to cover his face and hands that were covered in poisonous sores.
He nodded at Yu Wan. “Commandery Princess Helian.”
“Ah…” He knew who she was? She hadn’t told him yet!
As if seeing Yu Wan’s confusion, the Sorcerer King smiled faintly and said, “I’m the Sorcerer King.”
That’s right, this person was the Sorcerer King. He had supreme sorcery and knew how to view stars and divination. As long as he was willing, they had almost no secrets in front of him.
“Is Wanrou… alright?” Dawa asked.
The Sorcerer King sighed regretfully. “Sorry, I tried my best.”
Dawa fell to the ground.
The Sorcerer King said, “Her life is saved.”
Dawa rolled on the ground and stood up!
Dawa rushed in.
The Sorcerer King continued, “But whether she wakes up or not depends on her own luck.”
So she didn’t wake up? Dawa staggered and fell!
Yu Wan:
Can’t he finish speaking all at once? Was he very happy after being naughty?
However, no matter what, it was good that her life was saved. According to the Sorcerer King, she was now a living dead. She had breathing and pulse, but she could not wake up from her coma.
“You… want the Sorcerer King’s tears, right?” The Sorcerer King looked at Yu Wan and said.
“Yes.” Yu Wan did not ask him how he knew this time. He was the Sorcerer King. Wasn’t it just a matter of calculating what he wanted to know?
The Sorcerer King said, “I can give you the Sorcerer King’s tears, but I have conditions. ”
Yu Wan thought for a while and asked, “Help you regain the power of the
Sorcerer Clan?”
“No.” The Sorcerer King shook his head. “I have two conditions. First, kill the Soul Rakshasa. Second, take back Zhou Jin’s mother’s corpse. When you guys do it, I’ll give you the Sorcerer King’s tears.”
Yu Wan frowned. “The second condition isn’t difficult. The Saint King’s corpse is buried in your bedchamber. We can steal it, but the Soul Rakshasa… That’s a demonic creature that even you and the Saint King can’t kill. How do you want us to kill it? Die with it?”
The Sorcerer King smiled faintly. “This is your business. You want the Sorcerer King’s tears, while I want the Saint King’s corpse and the life of Wushang
Yueii.”
Yu Wan whispered, “Will you cry if I beat you up?
The Sorcerer King laughed. “Do you think the tears that the Sorcerer King shed are all called Sorcerer King’s tears?”
“Isn’t that so?” Yu Wan looked at him strangely.
The Sorcerer King smiled and did not say anything. He patted Yu Wan’s shoulder and whispered into her ear, “Then don’t hit my face.”
Yu Wan:
