Adorable treasured fox: Divine Doctor Mother Overturning The Heavens!

Chapter 1778 “The Cure (3)”

No matter what happens, I won’t let such a misbehaving woman stay in the monarch’s home, I won’t allow any threaten myself and my status as the next mistress!

As the moon fell over the west mountains, Gu Lao’s white robe finally reappears in the Gu Manor.

“Gu Lao where have you been?” Gu Ya couldn’t help but raise a smile at the only person whom she considers a family member.

However, instead of greeting the lady with a smile of his own, the old senior instead flashed a flicker of panic in the bottom of those old eyes. Naturally this behavior wouldn’t escape the lady who’s known this gramps for so long. Immediately, a sinking feeling gripped Gu Ya’s heart.

“Milady...” Gu Lao clears his throat with a dry laugh to hide his inner guilt.

“Gu Lao, we have been together for so many years, you believe I wouldn’t notice? I told you, I have other ways to get rid of them, you don’t have to take the risk, understand?” Gu Ya angrily reprimands him.

Truth was she’s not worried about Bai Yan or Di Ling Yan’s safety at all, after all, those two has nothing to do with herself. It’s the danger of carrying about such a mission. Without doubt, Heavenly was bound to find out the truth eventually. By then, not even she could save Gu Lao from the man’s wrath.

Gu Lao’s mood hit rock bottom. Musing for a moment, he faces the lady as he spoke with a strong determination: “Miss, to me, you’re no different than my own granddaughter, and I would do anything to remove the threat for you.”

Gu Ya’s body stiffened while her clenched fist loosened. In that moment, she felt helplessly weak.

“Gu Lao, I know you are doing it for my sake, but... I know there are other ways to drive that woman out. We only need to unite with First Elder to do that.”

Frowning in his old face: “First Elder? How can that old guy help us? He’s stubborn and a one-sided rock, how can we get him to listen?”

Ji Sky was known to be upright and loyal to the monarch. Unless the matter threatens Heavenly himself, it’s absolutely impossible to make that old fella to move on their behalf.

Gu Ya smiled with her teeth’s showing at the reasonable doubt from her elder: “Did you forget he has a weakness? We can use Ji Song for our goals! According to the spies we have inside the manor, the first elder is currently searching everywhere for a Soul Fruit at the bequest of that sickly lass. As it so happens, I happen to have one in my possession. Once I hand it over, he will answer one of my requests.”

Gu Lao almost gasped at the news. Going quiet for a brief moment, his old voice sounded hoarse and excited: “Then I won’t move against those two as you wish Milady. But if this plan fails, I will make sure that pair pay for getting in your way, no one can take what’s yours away.”

This would be the last concession. If the plan blunders like before, he would begin his plot of murdering those two, that’s his desire and conviction.

For some reason, Gu Ya did not object to the last bit from the old senior despite her constant preaching of not using murder to get her ways. Perhaps its impatient at the repeated failure? Or perhaps she’s just that confident? Regardless, one thing’s certain, she’s afraid of Bai Yan meeting Heavenly in person. The woman here knows herself better than anyone, her charms are nowhere up to par of the demon queen!

......

Inside the Monarch Manor, elder council’s residence.

Ji Sky sat quietly on his master chair with a face that could strangle those beneath himself.

“These useless things, it’s already been several days, why haven’t they found the Soul Fruit yet? If this causes my granddaughter to be unhappy then they can’t blame me for taking drastic measures!”
