434: Mother-Child Gu

Seeing this scene, everyone felt a chill in their hearts and trembled...

Prince Dai's eyes widened, his Face pale. If he hadn't been immobilized by Long Yuan, he would have likely collapsed to the ground in terror!

Long Yuan took out a jade box, placed the restrained signal gu inside, put it away, and released Prince Dai from his restraints, smiling: "All done!"

Prince Dai fell to the ground with a "thud," and it took a while before he trembling asked: "What the hell was that? How did it get inside me?!"

Long Yuan said: "It is a special creature from Fusang Country called a signal gu. It can hide inside a human body and transmit information within a certain range to its master. Judging by the time it hid inside your body, Royal Uncle, it must have been when you were at Hexiang Pavilion. I estimate that the woman named Takauji Wanmiao who received you is the culprit!"

"It was her! Damn it! I will never forgive her; I won't rest until I have her hacked to pieces!" Prince Dai roared in anger.

"Please calm down, Royal Uncle. I fear that once I extracted this signal gu, Takauji Wanmiao became aware of it. She will surely run away at the first opportunity. If we make a big scene going to Hexiang Pavilion to catch her now, we will come up empty-handed, and it would also leave evidence that you, Royal Uncle, were there for pleasure..."

"Ah... what should I do then? I definitely won't let this woman go!" Prince Dai growled.

"Rest assured, Royal Uncle! Through this signal gu, I can pinpoint this woman's location. I will go and bring her here right now!" Long Yuan said.

"What? You can bring her here right now? Do you need me to send people to help you?" Prince Dai said, shocked.

"No need! Just wait ten minutes!" Long Yuan finished speaking and flashed away, disappearing!

Prince Dai, Xu Ruoying, and the old eunuch looked at each other, completely unable to see how Long Yuan had suddenly disappeared...

"Ruo Ying, did Long Yuan just say ten minutes?" Prince Dai recovered from his shock and asked.

Xu Ruoying nodded and said: "Yes, Boss! He told us to wait ten minutes..."

"Hexiang Pavilion is at least fifty li away, and he still has to catch someone. How is ten minutes enough?" Prince Dai said.

"Boss, ten minutes is definitely not enough for us, but for Long Yuan... you don't know how powerful he is now. A few days ago in Dingyuan City in the Northwest, he rounded up over forty experts among those Evil Cultists who raided the treasure vault, and today they were all sent to the North Division for interrogation! Catching this Fusang woman is just a piece of cake!" Xu Ruoying giggled.

"Is that so?!"

Prince Dai was incredibly shocked and was about to speak when his phone suddenly rang. He saw it was Prince Zhao and answered: "Thirteen, why are you looking for me?"

"Is Long Yuan with you?" Prince Zhao asked directly.

"Yes! At Juxian Terrace!"

"I'm coming over immediately!" Prince Zhao said and hung up.

Prince Dai was stunned for a moment, put away the phone, and smiled: "It seems Old Thirteen also knows Long Yuan is here. Look at his tone; he's even more anxious than I am!"

Xu Ruoying asked suspiciously: "Boss, why are you all so anxious to see Long Yuan? Also, even if you like Long Yuan, you don't need to give him so many generous gifts, right? Even I can't help but be jealous of Long Yuan!"

Prince Dai's Face lit up with a sly smile, and he stroked his beard: "Long Yuan is a rising star of our royal family, deeply favored by the Emperor, and has an unlimited future! By the way, you are hanging out with him now, so don't lose him. For someone like him, who knows how many women would throw themselves at him regardless of everything..."

"Oh, Boss, Long Yuan is not like you..."

"What's wrong with me?!" Prince Dai was taken aback.

"Hmph, Boss, you don't even think about how you let that signal gu get on you in the first place!" Xu Ruoying shot Prince Dai a glance, pouting coquettishly.

"Ah, this... I only went there to listen to some music and play some games, I didn't do anything else..." Prince Dai's old Face turned red, and he hurriedly defended himself.

"Who knows..."

Just as Prince Dai was feeling a bit awkward, he felt a figure flash in the hall, and Long Yuan's voice came: "Royal Uncle, is this Takauji Wanmiao?"

The two looked up and found an enchanting woman in front of the seat, seemingly unconscious. But from her clothing and makeup, one could see she was indeed quite attractive, especially that fox-like charm that seemed to seep from her very bones; ordinary people would likely be unable to resist it at all!

Prince Dai took one look and couldn't help but exclaim: "It's her! I didn't expect it was really her who planted the signal gu in me!"

After hearing Long Yuan's analysis before, he was still a bit skeptical, but now seeing that the person Long Yuan caught by following the signal gu was indeed Takauji Wanmiao, he finally believed Long Yuan's words completely.

Long Yuan removed a sachet hanging from Takauji Wanmiao's waist, took out a small jade box from it, opened it, and said: "There is a mother gu here, and the one on you is a child gu. The child gu is controlled by the mother gu. Takauji Wanmiao only needs to manipulate the mother gu to continuously receive information from other child gu. Fortunately, Royal Uncle, you haven't participated in any major events this week, so the information she got from you shouldn't be much."

Prince Dai's expression changed, and he secretly thought it was bad. Although he hadn't participated in any major events this week, he had done quite a few shameful things. If Takauji Wanmiao spread them, wouldn't he lose a lot of Face?

He hurriedly said: "Long Yuan, quickly check how much information she got from me? Has she spread this information?"

Seeing Prince Dai's panicked appearance, Long Yuan couldn't help but secretly laugh, saying: "Rest assured, Royal Uncle, the most she could have obtained is the information described by that child gu, which is text-based. With the capabilities of that mother-child gu, it shouldn't be able to handle video-type information yet!"

Prince Dai let out a long sigh of relief upon hearing this and smiled: "That's good, that's good! This person is truly too detestable. Someone, drag her out and hack her into eighteen pieces!"

"Wait a moment, Royal Uncle!"

"Why is that?" Prince Dai asked curiously.

"This person still has some value; it would be better to hand her over to the Jianxuan Envoy Department for interrogation and sentencing!" Long Yuan said.

"Makes sense! Then hand her over to the Jianxuan Envoy Department!" Prince Dai said to the old eunuch.

"Yes! This servant will immediately have the people from the Jianxuan Envoy Department come to receive her!" The old eunuch quickly led people to drag Takauji Wanmiao out and notified the people from the North Division to come and take custody of the criminal.

At this moment, a hearty voice laughed: "Little Dai, what's going on with that Fusang woman?"

Everyone looked up and saw it was Prince Zhao.

Prince Zhao saw Long Yuan as soon as he entered, and while excitedly going over to hug him, he asked Prince Dai.

Prince Dai recounted the story, and Prince Zhao looked at Long Yuan in shock, asking: "You could spot a tiny insect inside Little Dai's body? And you caught this Takauji Wanmiao within ten minutes?!"

"Royal Uncle is exaggerating a bit, but well, it's not too far off..." Long Yuan knew he couldn't hide it, so he simply admitted it.
