  Song Li originally had some expectations, thinking she could be cured, but she was dumbfounded after hearing the Imperial Tutor’s words, she looked at the man in front of her in disbelief: “You…… You……”


  The High Priest frowned as he looked at Song Li, he then turned his head to look at the Imperial Tutor: “Imperial Tutor, please save her, even if it’s for the sake of her being my apprentice.”


  The Imperial Tutor returned to his seat and sat down, he placed one hand on his chin, he then looked at her with a smile and yet not a smile with ridicule in his eyes: “I am unable to resolve this poison, the Gu worm would be triggered if the poison was cured, forcing the Gu worm out would immediately trigger the poison in her body. You can only keep enduring this pain until you die. Of course, there is another way, which is her committing suicide.”


  The Imperial Tutor’s words were like a curse, causing Song Li’s gaze to turn sluggish. On the other side, the King of Miaojiang who was being ignored looked at Song Li, there was obvious panic in his eyes, if it was the Gu worm and poison planted by the child from the Nan Family, there was no need to imagine how much hatred he had for this woman, it’s because this woman was the accomplice who massacred his family at that time for her to receive such a treatment.

  The High Priest never expected that it would turn out like this, he couldn’t help but furrow his brows a little, he looked at Song Li with dissatisfaction.

  ”What exactly did you do for others to treat you like this?” The High Priest asked angrily.

  Song Li did not dare to say much, she told them what happened in Ling Empire.

  After hearing it, the Imperial Tutor seemed to have some thoughts as he looked at Song Li who was in front of him, there was a faint smile on his face, it was as if he was really satisfied with her current attitude.

  ”Step down, you’re not allowed to take a single step out of the Miaojiang palace, any offenders will die,” The death the Imperial Tutor mentioned was naturally not a quick death, Song Li nodded her head in panic.

  After the King of Miaojiang left with Song Li, only the Imperial Tutor and the High Priest were left in the room.

  The Imperial Tutor glanced at the High Priest, he lifted his head and asked: “High Priest, is there anything else?”


  ”Imperial Tutor, I wish to make a trip outside,” The High Priest’s eyes were filled with enthusiasm, to be able to bring Gu worms into play with such extremes, no matter what, he must obtain it.

  The Imperial Tutor looked calmly at the High Priest: “High Priest, you wish to find the descendant of the Nan Family? Since the King of Miaojiang is here, he will come sooner or later, why are you so anxious? Seeing the matters in Ling Empire being ruined by you all, just be obedient and stay in Miaojiang. If I find out that you snuck out of Miaojiang, don’t blame me for being ruthless towards you.”


  The High Priest watched as the Imperial Tutor stood up and left. His eyes were filled with anger. What’s the meaning of this? He actually dares to threaten him? Did he really think he was a big shot?

  But the Imperial Tutor was controlling the whole Miaojiang right now, he did not really dare to go against his wishes.

  After returning to his own room, the Imperial Tutor waved his hand and sent away his servants, he reached out his hand and placed it on the bookshelf, sounds of the mechanism in the bookshelf could then be heard as a secret passage slowly revealed itself.

  The Imperial Tutor entered with much familiarity, there was an elegant room after heading down.

  He looked at the woman sleeping on the bed, there was a faint smile on the Imperial Tutor’s face: “She’s indeed your daughter, her means are just like you in the past, if you’re able to see it, I’m sure you’ll be very happy, right? She even has her own family and a son, but why are you still unwilling to wake up?”


  The Imperial Tutor’s voice was soft, it was as if he was talking to himself.

  He said what he knew to the woman lying on the bed, seeing the person on the bed having no reaction, he gently sighed, he could only leave in a helpless manner.

  It has been more than a decade, she had never eaten or drank anything, she would have long been dead if he did not use precious herbs to nourish her.

  Although the poison in her body was cured, why was she still like this?

  All these years, he had always been waiting for her to wake up, after that, they would remain in Miaojiang never to return, but she did not wake up.

  On the contrary, she would still open her eyes from time to time in the past, but this year, there was nothing, she was just like a living dead.

  If it wasn’t for the undulations on her chest, he would have subconsciously thought that she had long left him, has she really lost her herself?
