Chapter 579 Demon and Executioner“Yes! That’s it! I didn’t know it could actually save lives?”“Su Muwei’s injuries were caused by the reverse flow in her veins. The spiritual power in the Sky Splitting Mirror made her better.”

Gu Bailu curled her lip. “Then do you know where he usually keeps the Sky Splitting Mirror?”

Qian’er shook her head. “Red Wolf guards the Sky Splitting Mirror. Nobody knows where it’s kept.”

“That’s fine. One step at a time. As long as he takes it out again, we’ll know. Let’s go.”

They had just returned, when Red Wolf sent people over with the herbs Gu Bailu asked for. He said that he would fetch a pill in the evening.

Seeing how anxious Lu Fenying was for the pill, Gu Bailu guessed that Su Muwei had to be in poor shape.

In the evening, Gu Bailu gave the pill to Qian’er. “Send the pill over so that they don’t have to come here and get it.”

Qian’er stepped back. “I… I don’t dare wander about.”

“What’s there to be afraid of? Go deliver it. I guarantee you’ll return safe and sound. You lived here before, you’re familiar with the layout.” Gu Bailu gave her the pill and pushed her out of the courtyard.

Qian’er looked at the door which Gu Bailu had just shut, and then at her own feet. She was outside the western courtyard now.

She had defied Lu Fenying’s instruction and left the western courtyard without permission.

She gritted her teeth. Now that she was already out, it wasn’t as terrifying as she had imagined.

She touched her belly involuntarily; she had to be strong and fearless for her baby.

Gripping the pill tightly in her hand, she walked to the main courtyard.

A guard stopped her on the way. Qian’er was scared, but gritted her teeth and replied, “I’m delivering the pill to the crown prince.”

The guard then left.

Qian’er was relieved. So it really was that simple. Because of the pill, she wasn’t obstructed at all, unlike when she had to report and wait for instructions again and again before.

Qian’er found Lu Fenying’s study easily, and was naturally blocked by the guards. “You dare! The main courtyard is an important place; you have no right to be here.”

“I’ve come to deliver the pill to the crown prince.”

“Wait here.” The guard turned around and went in to report. Soon, Red Wolf came back with him. Seeing Qian’er, his face turned cold. “Didn’t I say not to leave the western courtyard?”

“The pill is ready. We thought that the crown prince might need it urgently, so I brought it over.” Holding the pill, Qian’er took a couple of steps back and swayed in the wind, as if she would fall over at any minute.

Red Wolf was the most vicious executioner at Lu Fenying’s side.

He had once almost killed Qian’er with a punch.

If Lu Fenying was brutal and heartless, it was Red Wolf who was the executor of that brutality and heartlessness.

Qian’er would never forget how Red Wolf threw her into a lake in winter at Lu Fenying’s command and watched her coldly from the bank as she struggled, just to put a smile on Su Muwei’s face.

Just thinking about it made Qian’er feel cold all over, just like when she had been fished out of the cold lake. Her muscles had frozen stiff and turned purple and red from the cold.

Many times, Qian’er had wanted to die.

But they bled her and brought her back to life.

Those were the most miserable days of her life, when she couldn’t kill herself even if she wanted to.

She was scared of Red Wolf, who was a viper that could stick out its poisonous tongue at any moment.

“Give it to me.” Red Wolf extended one large hand which was full of calluses and scars. He reached out as if he would drag Qian’er over. Qian’er trembled and put the pill in his hand, but Red Wolf suddenly grabbed her hand.

Qian’er was so scared that she screamed and passed out.
