Chapter 1608: Have A Safe Journey
Taking the light green inscribed jade slip, Lou Wushuang sank her Divine Sense into it. Once she read the contents, her eyes shone with fervent light, “Wood source! With that, our Lou Family can rise to prominence. I will get to return to the Lou Family as well.”
At that moment, Lou Wushuang put everything else out of her mind and waved at the woman in white, “Send the order immediately. We’re heading to the magical beast forest.”
“Also, bring my newly configured voodoo poison [Crimson Voodoo]. Haha, aren’t the beastkins of the magical beast forest powerful? I want to see if they can break through my voodoo poison barrier!”
Xi Yue, Nangong Yu, I shall let you enjoy your life while you can! Once I get the wood source, I will send you to hell!
…
As the wedding date drew nearer, Hexi finally managed to get through most of the books in the Miracle Healer Academy’s library.
Over at the King of Hell Mansion, with people constantly coming over and urging her with long faces, Hexi decided to return to Jin Ling City.
Actually, she did receive letters from Mai Xiang and the others from the Sealed Dragon Domain, asking her to stay at the Miracle Healer Academy until just before the wedding. They promised to handle all wedding preparations on their end, so she wouldn’t have to worry about a thing.
The King of Hell Mansion was responsible for the groom’s side of the wedding, from the bridal chamber to hosting the guests. With the groom, Nangong Yu, absent, Butler Nan at the mansion was nearing his wit’s end.
Butler Nan sent updates on the wedding preparations to Nangong Yu every few days. Meanwhile, the Boundless Blackmarket sent a barrage of letters daily, urging him to return.
On the other hand, Nangong Yu took his sweet time. He acted as though guarding his wife was of utmost importance, dismissing the people Butler Nan sent.
In the end, Butler Nan had to send a letter to Hexi asking for help. Otherwise, the people at King of Hell Mansion would be overwhelmed.
The afternoon sun bathed the minimalist courtyard of the Huang Dormitory.
Hexi raised her head, basking in the pleasant. She squinted her eyes for a while before turning to the man beside her, “Xuan Mu, I’m going back to Jin Ling Kingdom.”
The man took a pause before nodding, “Congratulations!”
“Will you come to our wedding?” Xuan Mu was silent for a moment. He then shook his head, “After the matter here is over, it’s time for me to go back and resume my life.”
The man did not mention what he was planning, where he was headed, or whom he was reporting back to.
Hexi didn’t ask further. She raised her glass and waved it toward him, “Then, I wish you a safe journey.”
Xuan Mu raised his glass, clinked it with her, and drank it in one gulp.
The wine Hexi poured was top-notch and notably strong. Its pungent spiciness combined with the rich aroma hit the nose. As it flowed down his throat, it felt as if it could scorch his esophagus and internal organs.
This mix of pain and relief felt just like what he had been going through recently.
Xuan Mu suddenly took out a jade box and placed it before Hexi, “Here’s my wedding gift.”
Hexi took the gift curiously and opened it. She found a bundle of extremely fine, transparent threads inside, emitting a chilly aura.
