Chapter 1222: Removing the Heart Guide (2)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

This time, it was Elder Li from the City Lord Manor.

Elder Li was one of the few people in the City Lord Manor who had contact with the Hundred Flowers Palace.

When the old Palace Lord was still alive, the two of them were chess friends.

Every time the City Lord looked for the Hundred Flowers Palace for something, he would send him over.

If someone else had been sent, he might be turned away.

Elder Li brought the City Lord’s order for the one-month-old banquet.

Unlike Madam Ru’s invitation, which only listed the daughters of the Hundred Flowers Palace and Physician Qin, the City Lord invited the Palace Lord of the Hundred Flowers Palace and the Young Palace Lord to attend the banquet.

In other words, they could not even have another elder go on their behalf.

Of course, it did not matter if she wanted to bring a few more people to the banquet. In short, Yun Shuang, Ling Yun, and Wei Xiaobao could not be missing.

After Elder Li left, the Palace Lord returned to her room and threw the invitation with the City Lord’s order on the table. “What does this Ji Wanru want? I keep feeling that she has ill intentions.”

Resistance flashed across Ling Yun’s eyes.

Wei Ting glanced at him and said to the Palace Lord, “Mother, I’ll go. In any case, the people from the City Lord Manor have never seen Ling Yun. No one will recognize me if I wear a mask and pretend to be him.” The Palace Lord also looked at him and said to Wei Ting, “Alright.”

Wei Xu said, “I’ll go too.”

“And me, and me!”

Wei Liulang said. “Me.”

Jing Yi wanted to go too.

Su MO said, “In more than 20 days, Fourth Brother should have recovered.” This was also to protect Su Xiaoxiao and Wei Xiaobao.

The Palace Lord said to everyone, “Don’t be in a hurry to go. I’m afraid all the famous sects on the island have received an invitation from the City Lord Manor. The people from the a.s.sa.s.sin Alliance will also be present. Aren’t you afraid of being recognized by Jiang Guanchao?” “We can disguise ourselves,” Su MO said.

‘Yeah.”

Wei Xu agreed.

Jing Baobao nodded too.

The Palace Lord made the decision. “Since no one has any objections, it’s decided! When the time comes, I’ll arrange for everyone to attend the banquet in the City Lord Manor as disciples and elders of the Hundred Flowers Palace!”

The corners of Su Xiaoxiao’s mouth twitched.

Was this… really going to the banquet, and not to cause trouble?

The next day, the Saintess woke up.

She had been struck by Jiang Guanchao’s palm and had broken many

meridians. She needed to recuperate carefully.

However, she did not lie on the bed obediently. She always sat on the roof in a daze.

Su Xiaoxiao looked up at the Saintess. “Oh, you like to be in a daze even more than before.”

In the following days, Su Xuan and the Saintess stayed in the Flying Cloud Palace to recuperate.

Ever since Yun Xue announced in front of the Palace Lord and the two elders that she would definitely embarra.s.s the Palace Lord in three days, she never appeared again.

“What the h.e.l.l?”

The Palace Lord muttered in confusion.

Recently, Elder Qiu had been studying Su Xiaoxiao’s medical methods and was being chased by three grand disciples he did not acknowledge.

Granny Nie never came to the Hundred Flowers Palace to catch Elder Qiu again.

Instead, Xiao Ruyan and Nie Xiaozhu came over every few days.

Half a month later, the Saintess’ injuries healed.

Su Xuan could get out of bed and walk.

The pharmacy produced the black ointment that Wei Liulang had once used. It had the magical effect of removing scars.

Su Xiaoxiao gave Su Xuan two bottles and Wei Liulang one.

“Why are you giving it to me?” Wei Liulang asked.

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Sixth Brother, the scar on your face is much lighter. If you continue to use it, you might really recover your appearance!”

Wei Liulang actually didn’t care much about his appearance anymore, but looking at Su Xiaoxiao’s sincere gaze, he couldn’t reject her. “Then… thank you.

I’ll use it again.” “No slacking off.”

Su Xiaoxiao reminded.

“Will you use it?” Wei Liulang asked Su Xuan.

“Yes.”

Su Xuan said without hesitation.

Wei Liulang trembled. “You, you, you, you’re a man. Are you afraid of scarring?”

Su Xuan smiled quietly. “That’s right.”

Wei Liulang was enlightened. “I forgot that you’re going to be the emperor’s son-in-law. Before the wedding, a eunuch and nanny from the palace will come to check on you. You’re not allowed to have a scar. You have to look good there!”

As he spoke, his meaningful gaze swept across Su Xuan’s indescribable aspect.

Su Xuan’s smile twitched.

Wei Xiaobao was different every day.

When she was born, her loose clothes became fitting day by day.

When she was placed in the swaddling clothes, it was obvious that it was not so small.

“She’s really good-looking.”

The Palace Lord hugged the pink little fellow and liked her very much!

Wei Xiaobao’s daily activities were s.n.a.t.c.hed by her uncles and biological father.

The little guy was always calm.

In the blink of an eye, Wei Xiaobao had been born for 28 days. Her big eyes were dark.

She would dart her eyes towards whoever called out to her.

Today was also an especially important day for Su Xuan.

His injuries had recovered quite well. Although he had not completely recovered, Elder Qiu said that he could try to find Granny Nie to remove the Heart Guide.

The Heart Guide was a time bomb buried in Su Xuan’s body. No matter how powerful he was, his life would be in danger once the Heart Guide was activated.

Su Xiaoxiao decisively didn’t delay any longer. “The carriage is ready. Let’s go.”

Su MO nodded and asked Su Xuan, “Can you walk?”

If he couldn’t, he would carry him.

Su Xuan immediately said, “I can walk!”

Who would understand the awkwardness of being carried around by his brother like a child?

Su Xiaoxiao suppressed the corners of her lips and rode Ling Yun’s carriage to the Nie family with Wei Ting and her two cousins.

Xiao Ruyan and Nie Xiaozhu were not around.

Probably because Granny Nie had instructed him, the servant let Su MO and the others before despite not having seen them befor.

Granny had suffered a big blow last time. Almost a month had pa.s.sed, but she still looked a little haggard.

She glanced at them and her gaze landed on Su Xuan’s face.

“Let me make it clear first. The Heart Guide is the ultimate technique of my husband’s family, not my Jin family’s. My cultivation is inferior to Nie Yangshan’s, and I’ve never unsealed the Heart Guide for others in the past, so I can’t guarantee that I’ll succeed. Something might happen midway. If it’s serious, you might die on the spot. Think carefully.”

Su Xiaoxiao, Su MO, Wei Ting, and Ling Yun looked at Su Xuan.

Su Xuan looked at Granny Nie and said firmly, “I’ve thought about it. Granny, please remove my Heart Guide..”
