Chapter 780: You Want this Too
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Once she said this, the crowd was stunned.
Everyone present was invited by Shangguan Wan.?Now that everyone is here, she didn’t co and called Jiang Yucheng over instead. What exactly is going on??
Sothing cropped up. What could crop up that can make her give up on everyone here and invite Jiang Yucheng alone away? Even if he is the Prince Consort and has an extraordinary status, this still seems rather inappropriate, right? The people present are all reputable in the Tianling Dynasty.?
The crowd exchanged glances and didn’t look too good.
Jiang Yucheng also felt it was very strange and secretly knitted his brows.?No matter how unreasonable Shangguan Wan is, she wouldn’t dare to ss around at this ti. Any single person here isn’t soone she can easily offend. Even His Majesty has to be extra courteous to the people here, let alone Shangguan Wan. If she didn’t beco crazy, sothing must’ve really happened.?
He glanced at Chan Yi and discovered that even though the latter was looking down, her face was tense. She also looked anxious.
His heart sank, and he turned around to look at the crowd. “Everyone, sorry to trouble you, but please wait for a mont. We’ll be right back.”
Even though the crowd was upset, they wouldn’t directly show it and very kindly let him go.
Jiang Yucheng knew that they had offended the crowd this ti, but the situation was urgent. He didn’t have much of a choice.
He turned toward the direction of Huayang Palace, and Chan Yi quickly followed him.
After the duo left, the hall fell silent again.
The crowd didn’t really talk, but many of them were upset.?Shangguan Wan hasn’t even officially ascended the throne, yet she’s so daring to let so many people wait for her alone. The ti has reached, yet she doesn’t want to appear and even called Jiang Yucheng away, leaving everyone here. In the past, no matter if it were His Majesty or the Princess, they would never do such rude things.?
The people from aristocratic families were still okay with it, but the few clans’ masters were especially unhappy. During the Dahuang Swamp journey, their clans had lost a severe portion of their disciples. They originally wanted to ask Shangguan Wan for an explanation, but who knew she wouldn’t even be willing to show herself.
The low and solemn atmosphere spread around the hall.
…
Jiang Yucheng and Chan Yi walked quickly. When they reached Huayang Palace, the forr discovered that this place was heavily guarded.
Jiang Yucheng beca increasingly uneasy and walked toward the main hall.
Reaching the entrance, Chan Yi stopped. “Prince Consort, the Third Princess said that she’d only allow you to enter.”
Jiang Yucheng nodded in frustration and pushed open the door to enter.
The mont he walked in, Chan Yi closed the door.
Jiang Yucheng froze.?What exactly happened that caused the security in Huayang Palace to be so tight?
“Wan’er?” he called, but nobody answered.
He then surveyed his surroundings but didn’t see Shangguan Wan anywhere. However, he saw a broken box of cream by the copper mirror.
He paused for a mont and continued to walk in.?If she isn’t here, then she should be in the spa area.?
The mont he reached the door and was hesitating whether he should enter to find her, he heard a painful moan from inside. It was weak and suppressed, with a tinge of deep horror—it was Shangguan Wan!
Jiang Yucheng didn’t pause any longer and directly pushed open the door to enter.
…
The mont he walked in, the hot and humid air sward toward him.
This was a gigantic spa, and the mist surrounded everywhere, so he couldn’t see anyone clearly. However, Jiang Yucheng ca here before and knew where everything was.
Through the thick mist, he vaguely saw a figure by the side of the water. “Wan’er, what’s the matter?”
He walked toward that person, but he slled an intense bloody scent the mont he got close. The more important thing was that there was a slight rotting sll amidst the bloody scent.
Jiang Yucheng was more familiar with this sll than ever.?Isn’t this the strange scent from the Mystic Forest??
This sll was nauseating, but Jiang Yucheng suppressed his disgust and continued forward.
Shangguan Wan was wearing two layers of thin clothes as she laid by the side of the water, her hands tightly holding the floor. Hearing Jiang Yucheng’s voice, she moved with much difficulty and said, “Yucheng…”
Her voice was hoarse and weak.
Jiang Yucheng went forward and carefully held her shoulders. “Wan’er, why are you lying here? Everyone is waiting for you…”
His voice suddenly stopped! That was because a pool of blood was near the water!
“Pui—” Shangguan Wan’s body shook, and she vomited blood again!
This didn’t shock Jiang Yucheng the most. He scanned the surroundings and stunningly discovered that Shangguan Wan’s exposed arm beca much thinner than before.?I didn’t see her for half a day, yet her arms beca thin to the bones! There’s clearly sothing wrong!?
He was extrely shocked and was about to ask when he saw a faint green light flowing from the bottom of her skin, looking very strange.?That light… Isn’t that light exactly the sa as the one I saw in the Mystic Forest?!?
“Wan’er, what exactly is happening to your body?!” asked Jiang Yucheng anxiously.?No wonder Shangguan Wan called over so anxiously! This situation is indeed too strange!?
Shangguan Wan clutched the other’s hands and hopelessly cried. “I-I don’t know…”
She just wanted to wash up in the beginning, but she discovered sothing wrong with her body not long later. The dark-green light surged throughout her body, and it started thinning at an observable speed. It was like her muscles and bones were being absorbed by this thing!
Shangguan Wan had never seen such a scene and was scared to death. Seeing that things were getting out of hand, she could only get Chan Yi to call Jiang Yucheng over.
“Yucheng, you must help . You must help !” Shangguan Wan hugged his arm and cried in pain and horror as she begged him continuously.
Jiang Yucheng’s eyes widened.?The face of the current Shangguan Wan is completely ruined, and her body has thinned to an unpresentable state. Even hugging her feels extrely strange, and her entire person looks neither like a person or a ghost. If it weren’t for my strong heart, I really would’ve flung her away at the first instant.?
It felt like asles had grown at the place where Shangguan Wan clutched him tightly; it was very itchy and uncomfortable.
He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and asked, “Did you use that mother tree in the Mystic Forest?”
…
Mystic Forest.
The dark space was silent.
Force surrounded Chu Liuyue, and she was clearly stronger than before.
After digesting the absorbed force once again, Chu Liuyue gradually opened her eyes. Her gaze beca much brighter and clearer, and her body was much lighter. Her entire body seed to be filled with rich energy!
Shangguan Jing couldn’t help but praise her. “Liuyue, if you hang on for a while longer, you should be able to successfully break through to beco an advanced stage-five warrior.”
Chu Liuyue smiled delightfully before turning around and squinting her eyes.
A dark-green light appeared from nowhere and went toward the Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed.
Chu Liuyue teased, “Where did you get such mottled energy? You want that too?”
