Do Not Offend the Reborn Wicked Wife

Chapter 792: Finally Found!

In the mountain cave, Li Qingmu took off his outer robe to make a temporary swaddle for the child. Long Yue was drenched in sweat, just wiped herself with a towel, and took the wrapped child into her arms and looked at her.

"Mother and daughter are safe."

Li Qingmu said with a smile. Although the environment was simple, at least they had a place to settle down, right? Besides, even though it wasn’t as good as the Imperial Palace, fully equipped, it was at least stable.

"Look, I told you it would be a girl."

Long Yue gave a gentle kiss on the baby’s forehead and smiled, "But poor thing was born under such conditions. What name should we give her, you think?"

Long Yue had previously wanted Rong Si to help name the child, but now it seemed unlikely.

"Ah, ah..."

The little you’er heard the commotion inside and stealthily searched his way in. When he saw the baby girl in Long Yue’s arms, he looked delighted.

Long Yue noticed the joyful look on you’er’s face and suddenly said, "How about we call her Yaoyao? You’er, Yaoyao, how about it?"

"Ah ah!"

You’er cheered and then looked at Li Qingmu with hopeful eyes.

He was the oldest here, and it had to be his agreement.

Li Qingmu thought that the mother and daughter were brought back by you’er, a commendable feat. Since he liked the name for the girl, let’s go with his wish!

"Alright, we’ll call her Yaoyao."

"Ah ah, ah!"

"Okay, stop shouting and hurry outside to see if anyone from that village is coming." Long Yue smiled warmly, urging you’er to go out and keep a lookout.

You’er naturally listened to Long Yue and quickly went outside.

...

"Hey, Broken Jade, are you sure they’ll be around here?"

At the foot of a slope, Broken Jade held a Compass, looking at it as he walked intermittently. Occasionally, he gazed up at the stars.

The sky was darkening, stars slowly emerging, and soon the sky would be completely dark, revealing the Milky Way.

Broken Jade fiddled with the Compass, adjusting its direction as it pointed at the stars.

"I’m not sure..." Broken Jade said sadly. "I calculated they’re nearby, but I’m not definite. You know, I’ve just started trying this, my skills aren’t deep."

"Broken Jade, you’re so unreliable! Your master sent you down the mountain to assist Li Qingmu and his wife, yet you barely helped. Now you’re uncertain about finding them? I... I really want to smack you!"

A man, armed with a Longsword and wearing a Jade pendant at his waist, stood next to Broken Jade, yawning and complaining.

Broken Jade rolled his eyes in displeasure, "You think you can do better? Zhe Feng, if you’re that capable, why don’t you look for them yourself?"

Having been ridiculed by a fellow student for so long, Broken Jade finally couldn’t help but retort.

Zhe Feng stroked his chin, "This task was given to you by Master Yuheng. If you fail, he’ll certainly punish you later. I’m calling you out so you’re prepared!"

"Alright, alright, hasn’t the Heavenly Power Hall Master sent you too? Let’s not laugh at each other, just hurry up and find them!"

Zhe Feng realized complaining wouldn’t help and joined Broken Jade in their search.

Broken Jade once more took out a strand of hair from his chest pocket; it was from Long Yue’s dressing table. Only the person’s closest belonging makes the search accurate.

Body and hair are received from parents, and hair is quite intimate.

Logically, Broken Jade should find them, right?

But he failed three times.

It was because of these failures that Zhe Feng previously scoffed.

Broken Jade put the strand of hair on the Compass again, gestured for silence, then began muttering to himself.

At that moment, there was no wind around, but the hair floated to the left front of Broken Jade.

Broken Jade and Zhe Feng exchanged glances and spoke in unison, "That way!"

Then they dashed towards the left front direction.

They didn’t know how far they’d run, but suddenly a mountain cave appeared ahead, and a shadow darted past its entrance.

"Someone’s there!"

Their hearts immediately leaped; having someone here suggested Li Qingmu’s party might have chosen to stay nearby, given the darkness.

When Broken Jade and Zhe Feng saw the shadow, the shadow also saw them and quickly ran inside to inform, "Ah ah ah—"

You’er shouted intensely, even using his hands and feet to jump up and down. Long Yue gasped and then changed color, "Have we been detected?"

"Ah!"

You’er shook his head, but also nodded.

What does that mean?

"The ones who found us are not from the village?"

Li Qingmu said thoughtfully.

"Ah!"

You’er nodded quickly.

Long Yue and Li Qingmu slightly relaxed; as long as it wasn’t the villagers, things would be somewhat easier.

Li Qingmu was holding the child now; he handed the child to Long Yue and dashed outside to check the situation. He saw Broken Jade and Zhe Feng in the woods.

These two actually came, how did they track them down?

Li Qingmu had you’er with him; they didn’t have that, right? So how did they find them?

At this moment, as Zhe Feng and Broken Jade approached, Li Qingmu saw Broken Jade was holding a Compass. Could it be that they used that?

Li Qingmu stepped out but didn’t go far; he needed to protect Long Yue and the child at all times.

"Ah, Your Majesty, finally found you, whew, it’s been nerve-wracking!"

Broken Jade gasped heavily upon meeting, as if he’d run a long way, even sticking out his tongue — such antics...

Zhe Feng wore a serious expression and slapped him hard. "Be serious!"

Then he looked at Li Qingmu, "Why are you here? Do you know that the entire army of the Imperial City is looking for you?"

Li Qingmu replied, "Yue’er was kidnapped, so I naturally have to pursue. The army of the Imperial City is looking for me? Heh, let them search!"

"You — don’t plan to return?"

"I don’t want to!" Li Qingmu said coldly. "There’s no need to return to that palace. Next, it’s about finding You Su and confronting him. As for other matters, I don’t care!"

"Aren’t you worried about your mother? She may have been affected by You Su’s Soul Enchanting Soup. You’re not going to rescue her?"

Li Qingmu sneered, "She holds You Su in high regard and doesn’t listen to me, I’ve given up on her."

"No, Li Qingmu, you misunderstood me. You Su has a potion called Soul Enchanting Soup. Once someone drinks it, they obey him completely."

Zhe Feng suddenly said with gravity.

Li Qingmu was about to return to the mountain cave, but upon hearing this, he paused and immediately turned back, "What did you say? There’s really Soul Enchanting Soup? Specialized in confusing people’s minds?"

"No, it doesn’t really confuse the mind. If it did, it’d be easy for people to notice. She’s actually like a normal person, except when related matters arise, she becomes very obsessive."

Li Qingmu pondered. Yes, that’s true.

Every time You Su was mentioned, Rong Si became frantic. So, this is the reason?

Then, what exactly is that Soul Enchanting Soup?
