My Silly, Sweet Wife

”What’s wrong with Muge?”

Looking at Qin Muge lying still on the bed, as if asleep, but unresponsive no matter how he was called, Qin Cangqiong couldn’t help but feel anxious.

He asked the Superintendent seriously.

The Superintendent shook his head slightly: ”The Second Prince has fallen victim to the Fox Charm Technique.”

”Fox Charm Technique?” Qin Cangqiong didn’t care about the details.

After previous inquiries, Qin Cangqiong had a general understanding of what happened in Dragon City.

It seemed that Situ Jingtian was behind all of this.

Now that Situ Jingtian was dead, Qin Muge was brought back, but he remained unconscious despite being seen by many Imperial Physicians, who were still at a loss.

”Yes, Your Majesty, this Fox Charm Technique seems extremely tricky. I also attempted to awaken the Second Prince, but it had little effect,” the Superintendent shook his head, full of helplessness.

In truth, the Superintendent was only a martial artist, a powerful cultivator, and was not skilled in healing and saving others.

Qin Cangqiong didn’t want to hear any more of the Superintendent’s prattle and directly ordered, ”Quick, summon the State Preceptor immediately.”

It didn’t take long before the State Preceptor arrived in a hurry.

”State Preceptor, please take a look and see what is wrong with Muge?” Qin Cangqiong asked anxiously.

The State Preceptor, though blind, seemed to be able to see as he nodded slowly and reached out his hand over Qin Muge.

In the next second, the State Preceptor’s expression slightly changed: ”Your Majesty, the Second Prince is missing a soul and a spirit. If they are not retrieved, he may never wake up.”

”What?” Qin Cangqiong’s face changed dramatically, shouting, ”Then what are you waiting for? Go find them quickly!”

The State Preceptor said helplessly, ”Your Majesty, though I am the State Preceptor, I am merely a third-rank magician. It was not easy to catch the remnant soul previously and find the trace of that boy named Ye, but I do not understand the arts of souls, and now I am at a loss. I am afraid...”

”What? State Preceptor, what are you saying? Even you can’t do anything?” Qin Cangqiong’s face turned gray: ”State Preceptor, please think of another way, who else in the entire Daqian Dynasty has such skills besides you? If you don’t take action, then, won’t Muge become a living dead?”

Across the entire Daqian Dynasty, when it came to healing and saving people, if the State Preceptor was placed second, no one would dare claim first.

After all, the State Preceptor was also a magician, widely knowledgeable beyond imagination.

Not only an artifact refiner but also a pill master, and the path of alchemy must be highly proficient in the medical path.

Now that even the State Preceptor said he was powerless, wouldn’t this cut off Qin Muge’s path?

The State Preceptor blinked twice, his eyeballs moving slightly: ”Your Majesty, perhaps it is not so. Maybe finding that boy named Ye Guichen offers a glimmer of hope?”

”Ye Guichen?” Qin Cangqiong was full of doubts, looking towards the Superintendent.

The Superintendent had already understood the course of events and quickly explained the previous matters.

Qin Cangqiong soon understood.

Originally, they had mistaken Ye Guichen as that magician, but later discovered Ye Guichen was actually wronged.

However, the fact that Ye Guichen killed a Golden Bell was indisputable.

Therefore, the Superintendent didn’t act against Ye Guichen, but instead, placed him in the Heavenly Patrol to decide later after things here were settled.

”What did you say? That boy, with only a Foundation Establishment fifth level, actually killed a Foundation Establishment Peak Golden Bell?” Qin Cangqiong’s face couldn’t hide his shock after hearing the Superintendent’s report.

The Superintendent nodded lightly and called Yang Huai’an in: ”Your Majesty, Yang Yinluo knew Ye Guichen much earlier. Previously, he also helped Yang Yinluo’s subordinates.”

Saying so, he turned to Yang Huai’an: ”Tell His Majesty everything you know, don’t omit a single word.”

”Yes!” Then Yang Huai’an hurriedly recounted the events of last night, and the matter of Ye Guichen’s conflict with Zhu Ming and killing Zhu Ming, in every detail.

Finally, Yang Huai’an added, ”Your Majesty, what this subordinate says is factual. I originally thought of having Mr. Ye help us capture evil people, but this happened instead. That Mr. Ye, his methods are truly extraordinary.”

Qin Cangqiong was also somewhat shocked.

Frankly, Qin Cangqiong was very clear about the abilities of his Golden Bell subordinates.

But based on their descriptions, Ye Guichen, despite his young age, was highly skilled.

He seemed to have substantial knowledge in the arts of souls.

Now there was no other way, Qin Cangqiong was afraid something unexpected might happen if too much time passed, so he quickly said, ”Quick, bring Ye Guichen in here. If he can bring Muge back, he will be pardoned!”

”Yes!” Yang Huai’an hurried to fetch Ye Guichen.

After such a long time, Ye Guichen had almost finished adjusting his breathing.

Hearing Yang Huai’an say Qin Muge was still unconscious, Ye Guichen also had a general idea.

After interacting with the white fox, Ye Guichen could mostly understand the white fox’s tricks.

The so-called Fox Charm Technique involved nothing more than losing one’s mind and soul.

Besides that, it involved capturing souls, making people lose themselves.

However, Ye Guichen did not follow Yang Huai’an directly into the inner city, but first sent Yang Huai’an out.

Though puzzled, Yang Huai’an still waited outside the door.

Then, Ye Guichen took out the storage ring obtained from Situ Jingtian.

Situ Jingtian had been smashed into nothing, and the storage ring naturally became ownerless.

After Ye Guichen recognized ownership with blood, he naturally saw the contents inside.

The storage ring was tremendously rich in contents.

Besides some basic Spirit Stones, there were even numerous spiritual artifacts.

Many of the spiritual artifacts he had never seen before, and as for how to operate them, Ye Guichen did not know.

But, Ye Guichen wasn’t looking for those things.

He soon focused his attention on a black bottle.

The black bottle was engraved with runes, giving off a deep and solemn feeling.

By intuition, Ye Guichen felt there had to be something inside.

With a thought, he took the bottle out of the storage ring.

Ye Guichen did not rashly open it but first attempted to probe it with his Spiritual Sense.

However, after his Spiritual Sense attached to it, it was as if a stone sank into the ocean, and even the inside could not be seen.

”This bottle seems to be quite a treasure.”

It could absorb Spirit Stones, which was definitely not simple.

To be on the safe side, Ye Guichen also opened the Jiuyou Tower, letting it envelope him.

Then, he opened the bottle cap.

As soon as the bottle cap was opened, countless remnant souls rushed out, wildly colliding.

If not for Ye Guichen opening the Jiuyou Tower long ago, these remnant souls might have escaped quickly.

With preparation, Ye Guichen directly used the Jiuyou Tower to collect these remnant souls.

Once all the remnant souls had fled out, Ye Guichen took a closer look and was taken aback.

Besides some human remnant souls, there were many of beasts.

One of them was even a white fox.

It seemed that the white fox wanted its cultivation from Situ Jingtian, and this was related to the remnant souls inside this bottle.

But now was not the time to study these.

Ye Guichen quickly focused on one of the remnant souls.
