To know a word is to works

Door closed

    

underworld was interfering too much here, worried that the Situ family might use that power… His family was about to rise to prominence, and he was nervous about the uncontrollable influence these for...I didn't dare to speak up. My fifth senior sister, with her personality like a soft knife, was the hardest to deal with.

She doesn't yell or get angry, but everyone has their limits when it comes to the incessant "care" she provides day after day.

This isn't that she's targeting Long Xiaoge, she does this to everyone.

Because for those who come to our home for recuperation, status and background are secondary. What matters most is that they have a connection with our family.

So most of the people who came home to recuperate had her taking care of their herbal dietary therapy. She treated others just like she treated me, almost meticulously preparing each meal and delivering it on time. She could make patients so well-cared for that they only needed to stretch out their hands for clothes and open their mouths for food.

But tonic soups are not as palatable as the general public imagines, and after a meal or two, they start to taste quite agreeable.

Eating every meal, day after day, for half a month, I bet you'd get tired of the smell itself.

Well, Long Xiaogē has slipped away under a false pretense.

I've never seen Fifth Sister lose her temper with patients. She's always hardworking and kind, smiling gently. They say you don't hit someone who's smiling, especially when they're a doctor coming to diligently treat you.

Can't stand it Even if you can't, you have to hold back!

Sixth Sister's eyes were darting back and forth, staring at me, then she secretly winked.

What are you doing I discreetly glanced at the person beside me.

Long Xiaoge didn't respond, but his face was clearly unhappy, making it obvious that he wouldn't compromise and go to our house.

"Ahem, that... since you guys are all here helping out anyway, might as well take care of Little Dragon as well He doesn't have anyone to rely on here and it's understandable he doesn't want to leave. I owe Little Dragon a favor, so Senior Sisters, could you lend a hand..." I quickly spoke up to ease the awkward atmosphere.

Long Xiaoge's expression eased. He said to the guards, "Go prepare two more guest rooms. These are all honored guests who have helped me."

He pointed to his fifth, sixth and ninth senior martial brothers/sisters.

Long Xiaoge is a very grateful person. He helped me so much without asking for anything in return, and he didn't care how I settled those people. There were no rules or regulations, it was very straightforward and refreshing.

"Where's Mu Wanchen" Long Xiao turned to ask me.

“He had a little something to attend to, he’ll be back before sunset.”

"What's up"

I hesitated for a moment, then ran to Long Xiaoge's side and whispered the information I had found about Mu Wanchen.

Long Xiaoge frowned slightly, he brushed the hair from his forehead, and said in a low voice: "Swallowed Did he say it like that"

I nodded. Mu Wanchen did say that the Gu Spirit almost got swallowed.

"And the yellow-skinned spirit messenger that came from my grandmother's place didn't go back either. I suspect it was swallowed." I whispered.

Long Xiaog's brow furrowed even tighter.

The Corpse King summoned me, saying a malevolent spirit has been tracking you. Could it have come from this swallowed entrance Where is that place"

Mú Wǎn Chén went to check, the general direction was in the north, some of it overlapped with the secret river gate of Wū Wáng Shān City. He worried something had happened.

“You should have told me sooner, I would have gone to take a look as well.”

"You should focus on taking care of your health. You've lost so much weight, and you still need to recover from your throat. Take advantage of the time while my senior and junior siblings are here to help you get well each day."

I wouldn't dare to encourage Brother Long to take me with him to investigate in front of Senior Sisters Five and Six.

I also promised Mu Wanchen not to run around.

The sky was overcast, without the sun, only heavy gray clouds and fluttering snowflakes.

After days of rain, the mountain path was muddy and icicles hung from the eaves. I patrolled with Mu Wanchen between houses.

With the Great Shaman away, I must step forward to reassure these people that they are safe here.

An elderly woman from a household tugged at my sleeve and asked me how much money I spent to help them. She wanted to kowtow to me.

Liang Xiaoger stopped her, saying from now on she couldn't get within a zhang of the little princess, or he wouldn't be polite.

"The little princess is with child! Don't all swarm her, lest you break your precious scalps! You can't afford that!" He roared with authority.

Such messages often spread like wildfire, quickly reaching every member of the tribe.

In a little while, everyone will know I'm pregnant. Even those two elders came to ask me if it was true.

"That's true, and I hope you can ease my worries, or else I'll leave you here and go back home to rest." I threatened the old woman.

The old woman had scolded me before, but now she can only pout and dare not speak a word.

"That's right, Your Highness should return to your chambers. It's cold and snowy out here, and things are quite hectic. We'll send someone to you if anything important comes up. Please rest for now..." The old gentleman urged me kindly.

But I want to wait for Mu Wanchen here. He will definitely come to the people first when he comes back, and then go find me. I can't wait, not even for a second.

Now that I'm pregnant, I've become even more clingy to him.

It feels like when I'm around him, my whole person can relax.

I don't know if this is the lure of the guiling, but I'd rather believe it's the unborn child pulling us.

Snowy mountains and forests, the wind like a razor.

Standing on the shore for a while, you'll be invaded by the unique coolness of the waters under Miao Wang City, shivering uncontrollably.

Just before the last sliver of light vanished from the horizon, Mu Wanchen appeared beside me, wrapped in a chill.

"I knew you wouldn't listen." He shook his head helplessly, reaching out to take my hand and pulling me for a random stroll along the bank.

As long as people can see him, those citizens will not feel abandoned.

Mu Wanchen's brows furrowed slightly, he picked me up and walked towards the guest platform of Miao Wangcheng.

"The broken parts of the magical barrier have been exposed, and the scenery is starting to merge. There's a small village to the north, completely destroyed in this earthquake. That's where Guiling almost got swallowed." Mu Wanchen lowered his voice and quickly told me.

"I suspect someone used the terrain to their advantage. This little village is deserted, and the roads have collapsed, landslides and mudslides have covered everything, turning the whole village into a graveyard."

I held onto his shoulders and asked, "What about the rescue people Didn't any rescue teams go in"

"No, the rescuers would never be able to see this place—it had become a sealed and isolated death trap. It was less than a hundred miles from the broken gate, but a mountain collapse stood in the way. It had nothing to do with the gate before, but now, from here, you could see the location of the shattered formation in the distance."

" ...Um, I don't quite understand. How could a sealed and isolated death place affect the Mi Jiang magic" I tilted my head, asking.

"That's right. The damaged parts of the Dharma Gate have already begun to merge with the scenery of the mortal world, gradually revealing themselves. And this dead place has chaotic power spreading, forming a magical array that begins to expand, soon spreading to the Mi Jiang Dharma Gate... You can imagine a vortex, sucking away the life force of those on top. The inside of the Dharma Gate is also unavoidable."

"That yellow-skinned wretch, probably went off halfway to find your mother, Ms. Xue, and then his trail disappeared here."

Mu Wanchen put me in the guest room. He knelt halfway before me and said, "This is a dead end with doors and windows sealed. Once an old monster uses it, they will definitely use it to invert the boundaries between the three realms. I need to remind my master about this and let him pay attention to the situation here."

I frowned and pondered for a moment before blurting out, "Wan Chen, what exactly is so special about the Mi Jiang River basin, or even the Wu Wang Mountain City Why are these ancient monsters so obsessed with it that they're willing to do anything to possess it"

Mù Wǎn Chén heard this, slightly stunned—
