488: Duan Zhengchun: What a terrible thing!

If it weren't inconvenient, she would absolutely have another exhilarating martial arts sparring session with Duan Zhengchun, absolutely making him cry.

"It's just a cultivator, is it really worth getting so excited about?" Duan Zhengchun said with a smile, shaking his head.

"How could I not be excited? A cultivator! That's a real immortal!"

"It's an existence that can live forever and never age. If my husband is an immortal, then I'm an immortal's wife. That means I can also live forever and stay young forever!"

"Such a good thing, what woman wouldn't like it? What person wouldn't like it?"

"Everyone likes it, okay." Huang Rong excitedly swayed on Duan Zhengchun.

"So, this Su Xin still needs to be saved. We must make Zhu Wushi taste the bitter fruit of his own actions." Duan Zhengchun wore a wicked grin.

"Great, great! I also want to see what expression Zhu Wushi will have when he finds out about this, if he'll really go crazy." Huang Rong said excitedly, hugging Duan Zhengchun's neck.

This swaying made Duan Zhengchun feel a bit dizzy.

It couldn't be helped; two balls had been swaying non-stop, making his eyes swim.

Others get carsick; he gets ball-sick.

"Alright, alright, alright, I'll take you, I'll take you, okay?" Shaken to the point he couldn't take it anymore, Duan Zhengchun could only agree.

However, the moment his words fell, he heard a familiar voice.

"Your Highness, where are you going? Can you take me along?"

As the words ended, Invincible East's figure appeared beside Duan Zhengchun, looking at the two with a half-smile.

"Ah, Sister Dongfang, you were eavesdropping on us!" Huang Rong's pretty Face flushed red, and she shyly buried her head in Duan Zhengchun's chest.

"Hey, let me state clearly, I wasn't eavesdropping. I just happened to be passing by and overheard by chance."

"So, I'm curious, where are you planning to have His Highness take you? I have nothing to do; I want to go too." Invincible East stepped forward and grabbed Duan Zhengchun's arm.

"I never said you couldn't go. You'll have to ask His Highness about that." Huang Rong quickly hugged Duan Zhengchun's other arm.

That look was as if she was afraid Duan Zhengchun would leave her behind.

Duan Zhengchun was utterly helpless. They really loved watching the spectacle, not caring if things got bigger.

"Fine, I'll take both of you, okay?" Duan Zhengchun shook his head in resignation.

"Hehe... His Highness is still the best." Invincible East hugged Duan Zhengchun's arm and shook it vigorously.

Duan Zhengchun instantly felt enveloped by gentleness, his whole person floating.

"Tsk tsk, testing a cadre with this? What cadre could withstand such a test?"

"Unfortunately, this prince really has to hold back. There's no choice. Right now, both of them hold the imperial sword; they can't be touched." Duan Zhengchun took a deep breath.

"Haha..."

Hearing Duan Zhengchun's words, Huang Rong and Invincible East exchanged a glance and couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"What a sin..."

Duan Zhengchun shook his head, turned, and led the two away.

"Your Highness, what are we going to do now? Deliver the heavenly fragrant cardamom directly to Zhu Wushi?" Huang Rong asked curiously.

"Deliver? This prince just said I wouldn't tell him, and now you want me to go deliver it to him? Does this prince have no Face?" Duan Zhengchun pouted.

"You didn't tell him; you're just directly giving it to him. That doesn't count as breaking your word."

"Besides, you can take the opportunity to extort something and also watch him suffer the consequences. Wouldn't that be good?" Huang Rong looked at Duan Zhengchun with a wicked grin.

"Indeed, you must never offend a woman." Duan Zhengchun remarked with feeling.

"Wait, Your Highness, what do you mean by that?" Huang Rong's Face darkened.

"Nothing. Let's do as you said. Come on, let's go find the heavenly fragrant cardamom first." Duan Zhengchun said, directly leading the two away.

When they appeared again, they had already arrived at Princess Yunluo's mansion.

With his skills, avoiding the maids here was too simple.

He directly found Princess Yunluo's white cat. By now, the white cat hadn't eaten or defecated for several days after mistakenly swallowing a Night-Luminous Pearl.

The palace maids were all anxious. Everyone knew this white cat was Princess Yunluo's favorite.

Now that the white cat wasn't eating or drinking, if something happened to it, they would surely be punished.

They were all anxiously trying to think of a solution, but they were just palace maids; where would they know about such things?

Duan Zhengchun directly found the white cat and retrieved the Night-Luminous Pearl from its body.

Meanwhile, Zhu Wushi, already knowing he might not find the third heavenly fragrant cardamom, simply fed Su Xin the second one.

He had made all preparations, waiting for Su Xin to wake up so Miraculous Physician Sai could treat her.

He had no choice. He had always kept Su Xin in the Tianshan Ice Cave to prevent her Physical Body from decaying.

However, he never expected Cao Zhengchun's men to find her and bring her out. Without the ice cave, if Su Xin didn't take the heavenly fragrant cardamom soon, there would really be no chance.

"Su Xin, don't worry. I will find the third heavenly fragrant cardamom as soon as possible. Then, you'll be able to return to normal." Zhu Wushi said, taking out the second heavenly fragrant cardamom and feeding it to Su Xin.

Less than the time it takes an incense stick to burn after taking the heavenly fragrant cardamom, Su Xin opened her eyes.

Seeing the woman he had waited for twenty years finally awake, Zhu Wushi was so excited his eyes turned red and his lips trembled.

"Su Xin, you... you're finally awake." Zhu Wushi looked at Su Xin excitedly.

Having slept for so long, Su Xin's mind was still a bit fuzzy upon waking, looking around the environment with confusion.

Her memory was still stuck on the scene before the battle at Tianshan.

After a brief moment of confusion, she finally reacted upon seeing the familiar Face before her.

"You... are you Zhu Tiedan?" Su Xin looked at Zhu Wushi uncertainly.

"Su Xin, it's me. You're awake. Wonderful, you're finally awake." Zhu Wushi excitedly grabbed Su Xin's hand.

"I... didn't I already die? Why am I here?" Su Xin looked at Zhu Wushi puzzled.

"You were just too foolish. Back then when you rushed out, you took half a palm strike, shattering your internal organs. If I hadn't had the heavenly fragrant cardamom to give you in time..."

"...you would really be dead now. However, you need to take three heavenly fragrant cardamoms to be completely revived."

"I've already given you two. As for the third, I already have a lead and will find it soon." Zhu Wushi said with a smile.

When Su Xin looked at Zhu Wushi, a trace of resentment flashed in her eyes, but she hid it well. Zhu Wushi, overwhelmed with emotion at his beloved's awakening, didn't notice.

Su Xin smiled at Zhu Wushi.

"You've worked hard. I..."

Just as Su Xin was about to continue, she suddenly felt a heart-wrenching pain, her eyes rolled back, and she directly fainted.

The moment she fainted, Su Xin's hair began to turn white at a visible speed.

In the time it took Zhu Wushi to blink, her entire head of hair had turned completely white.

This scene scared Zhu Wushi so much his Face turned pale.

"Su Xin! Su Xin! What's wrong? Are you alright? Someone, quick, someone!" Zhu Wushi roared.

"Godfather, what's wrong?" Duan Tianya, hearing the commotion, rushed in.

"Quick, go fetch Miraculous Physician Sai!" Zhu Wushi shouted urgently.
