Chapter 2314: Side Story – Wu Xiao Dao Edition（4) Save Others, Save Herself

“Presumptuous!” This time, an angry voice was from a minister in the imperial study, and the Emperor seated on the throne was also very angry.

“Speaking so presumptuously, come here, punish her with twenty strikes of the board!” No matter whether she has merit or not, she will be beaten first.

“Tch, I’m not so bored to play such games with you.” Wu Xiao Dao shook her head and said to Mu Si, “I’ll wait for you outside.”

After speaking, she slowly disappeared from the spot in front of everyone’s eyes!

“What’s going on?” Everyone in the imperial study was dumbfounded.

She suddenly disappeared, was she an immortal? He said just now that she would be punished with twenty strikes of the board, gulp, will she come to him to seek revenge?

“Father, don’t panic, Xiao Dao is not a bad person.” Fu Ming Shao quickly reassured him, and also explained the matter of Wu Xiao Dao in detail. “Xiao Dao is rambunctious but she isn’t bad. As long as she’s not provoked, she can still talk very well.”

…

Wu Xiao Dao walked around the Palace and encountered a lot of things. Tsk tsk, she sighed and lamented that this place where one couldn’t cultivate, she could also be caught in a bloody storm! What darn luck she had!

“Fortunately, this spatial technique doesn’t require much spirit power. My level is enough to scare these mortals.” Wu Xiao Dao sighed with emotion.

Her skills had always been inferior to Wu Qi Yao. If they knew that she used this to deceive these mortals, they would probably be laughing for several months.

An hour later, Fu Ming Shao and Mu Si came out of the imperial study, and when they came to the gate of the Palace, they saw Wu Xiao Dao sitting leisurely on the Palace Wall, and a group of royal guards surrounded the Palace Wall, ready to attack.

Seeing them, Wu Xiao Dao waved to them and said, “Why are you two so slow?”

“Let’s go.” Fu Ming Shao beckoned to her, and she immediately got down from the Palace Wall, ignoring the people around her, and followed them out of the Palace.

“Are we going to see your sweetheart now?” Wu Xiao Dao asked Mu Si.

Mu Si: “…”

A group of people came to a manor and saw no one after they entered. When they went to the backyard, they saw a woman in white basking in the sun, with two maids talking to her.

The woman was not particularly beautiful, but she had a very gentle disposition. She spoke softly to the maid, looking frail and someone who needed to be protected.

“Wan’er, why did you come out again? Didn’t the doctor tell you to rest in bed?” Mu Si walked over and covered her with the blanket on the side, moving very gently.

“Mu Si, you’re here.” The woman saw Mu Si, the corners of her lips rose, her eyes were full of smiles, and filled with emotion. There was also a sliver of surprise in her gaze. She reached out and brushed his clothes, and asked, “Didn’t you go to the Palace to meet the Emperor? Why did you come out so quickly? Have you returned to the Manor yet?”

“Not yet, I brought someone to see you.” Mu Si looked at Wu Xiao Dao.

Wu Xiao Dao didn’t expect that Mu Si, who looked cold in front of others, would be so gentle to the woman. However, seeing her for the first time, she did give people quite a comfortable feeling and good impression.

Wan’er looked over and saw Wu Xiao Dao and Fu Ming Shao. She wanted to stand up and salute, but was held down by Mu Si, but she still stood up.

“I have seen the Sixth Prince.”

“Wan’er, he is now Duke Ding.” Mu Si said.

Wan’er had a look of joy on her face, and she said, “Congratulations, Your Highness.”

“You’re not in good health, so don’t be too polite.” Fu Ming Shao waved his hand, then said to Wu Xiao Dao, “Xiao Dao, go and see Wan’er’s body.”

Wu Xiao Dao nodded, walked over, asked Wan’er to sit down, and reached out to check her pulse.

Although Wan’er had doubts in her heart, she stretched out her delicate wrist.

Wu Xiao Dao took a pulse, and then used his spirit power to enter her body to investigate, frowning more and more tightly.

“Xiao Dao, how is it?” Mu Si looked at her nervously, “Have you found out the reason for her weakness?”

Wu Xiao Dao withdrew her hand and said, “What did the doctor say before?”

“They can’t find the reason, it’s just that she has too much on her mind. Wan’er’s health is still getting worse and worse after taking some medicine.” Mu Si replied.

“I’m very satisfied that you came back.” Wan’er held his hand and smiled to reassure him.

It’s enough for her to meet him in her life.

Mu Si was very distressed, and Wu Xiao Dao was also distressed when she saw this.

Xiao Yao Yao had told her before that this apprentice of Mother had a very bitter life, so he could survive in a hellish training place like the Underworld, and he also asked to go through trials and tribulation.

Xiao Yao Yao didn’t say it clearly, but she could guess it, even though Mother couldn’t see it. But since their mother loves this apprentice very much, now that he finally has someone he likes, why shouldn’t she help him? And it might be good for her too.

So, when Mu Si asked her again, she told the truth.

“Actually, there’s still some hope.” Wu Xiao Dao said,

“Do you have a way to save her?” Mu Si stared at her with joy.

Wu Xiao Dao spread out her hands: “There is nothing wrong with her body…”

Before she could finish her words, Mu Si became anxious: “How can she be so weak if there is nothing wrong?”

“Because her destiny is limited.” Wu Xiao Dao said.

“The destiny is limited? What does this mean?” This time it was Fu Ming Shao who asked.

“It’s the Heavenly Dao… the Heavens only allows her to live for so long, so when the time is up, her body begins to weaken.” Wu Xiao Dao tried to make himself clear.

Fu Ming Shao and Mu Si were both well-informed people. Although they have never seen such a thing before, they understood what she meant very quickly.

“Since it is destiny, how can we save her?” Mu Si asked.

“It’s actually quite simple, but the price is relatively high.” Wu Xiao Dao said, “You… Forget it, there is nothing you can do now. I can help her change her destiny and go against the heavens, but it may lead to the punishment of heaven.”

“What is the punishment of Heaven?”

“Lightning tribulation. As for the degree of lightning tribulation, it depends on the Heavenly Dao.” Wu Xiao Dao said.

“Is it very dangerous?” Fu Ming Shao’s voice was a little depressed.

Wu Xiao Dao looked up at the sky, her gaze was a little vague: “There is definitely the element of danger, but it may also be a good thing for me.”

Good thing? Her words made a few people confused, how could such a thing be a good thing?

Fu Ming Shao looked at her, pursed his lips slightly, and frowned unconsciously.

“Although I haven’t seen a lightning tribulation before, it sounds scary to hear. If the lightning strikes me, would I still have a life left?” Wan’er took Wu Xiao Dao’s hand and said, “Since the Heavens only allow me to live for so long, how can I ask for more, and also implicate you?”

She had very soft hands and holding Wu Xiao Dao’s hand made her feel comfortable.

After that, she looked at Mu Si again and said, “Mu Si, let’s just leave it.”

Just leave it, as long as she has him in the last moment of her life, that’s enough.

Mu Si was hesitant. He wanted to save Wan’er, but he couldn’t put Wu Xiao Dao in danger.

“Actually, I also want to use you to save myself.” Wu Xiao Dao had to make her words clearer, “The good thing I just mentioned was a way for me to save myself.”
