Upon hearing Feng Qiwu’s instructions, Ling Han finally released Witch Doctor Gu He’s shoulder.
At this moment, Witch Doctor Gu He, as if receiving a pardon, quickly stepped forward and cautiously said, "To restore this place to its original state, we’ll need some Star Stones to set up the array, requiring at least a thousand pieces. What do you think?"
Feng Qiwu directly took out a pile of transparent, irregular objects from the Star Ring, "Do you mean these?"
"Exactly!" Witch Doctor Gu He hurriedly replied.
Feng Qiwu listened, threw him a pile of Star Stones, and then asked, "How long will it take?"
"Not long, we just need to restore the damaged array." With that, he hurriedly jumped into the hot spring pool.
This array was originally set up by him personally back in the day, so patching it up now was naturally very simple.
However, what startled him was that his array had been forcibly broken open by this guy.
Even though this array was specifically set up to hide aura, now that there’s no more Star Power, this guy should just be an ordinary person.
He shouldn’t have been able to break through the array so easily.
But no matter how strange it was in his heart, Witch Doctor Gu He’s hands did not dare slacken their movements in the slightest.
The reason was none other.
The pressure Feng Qiwu gave him was so enormous that he felt if he angered Feng Qiwu, he’d surely be doomed.
Luckily, he had just taken a Revitalizing Pill, so his spirit and strength had mostly recovered, allowing him to complete such a repair project in a short time.
About half an hour later, the large hole at the bottom of the hot spring pool was personally plugged by Witch Doctor Gu He.
Then he turned to Bai Susu and Feng Qiwu and said, "Now you can rest assured, right? As long as there are Star Stones at the bottom of the pool, the water here will remain warm, and the water heated by Star Stones also has a strengthening effect."
"I understand, you may leave now." Feng Qiwu said indifferently.
Seeing Feng Qiwu telling him to go out instead of to get lost, Witch Doctor Gu He was instantly overjoyed.
Maybe there’s a chance of survival?
After all, his life and death were in Feng Qiwu’s hands; others might obey him no matter what?
His stance could be very important. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝✶𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖✶𝕟𝕖𝕥
But in the next moment, Witch Doctor Gu He’s heart was once again in his throat.
Because his body was once again lifted from behind.
When had he ever been treated ?
But at this moment, he had to endure no matter how dissatisfied he felt inside.
Yet what Witch Doctor Gu He didn’t expect was that, after Ling Han and the others took him out, they didn’t imprison him as he had imagined, but instead said to an old man, "Housekeeper Li, find him a room to stay."
Upon hearing this, Witch Doctor Gu He couldn’t help but be taken aback.
"Aren’t you going to lock me up?" Witch Doctor Gu He asked blankly.
Upon hearing this, Ling Han gave him a cold glance.
"In your current state, do you still need to be locked up? If you want to leave, you can go now; I don’t think His Highness would stop you." Otherwise, His Highness would not have looked like that just now.
As someone close to His Highness, he felt he understood His Highness’s intentions.
Witch Doctor Gu He was dumbfounded when he heard this.
"Really? Can I really leave?" His heart couldn’t help but thump wildly.
Ling Han directly replied, "Want to leave? Housekeeper Li, take her to the gate."
Upon hearing this, Li Cang immediately nodded and said, "Miss, please this way."
Ling Han and the others couldn’t help but twitch the corners of their mouths as they heard Li Cang addressing Witch Doctor Gu He as miss.
If Li Cang knew what this guy was like before, would he still be able to call him miss ?
Yet Witch Doctor Gu He was apprehensive upon hearing this, "Are you sure he will let me go? You wouldn’t say this in front of me but actually plan to take me to a secret place to dispose of me?"
He’s seen too many cases of people saying one thing but doing another.
Who knows if he’s encountering one of those situations now?
Upon hearing Witch Doctor Gu He’s words, Ling Xi’s dark eyes showed a hint of impatience, "If His Highness wanted to kill you, would he need to go to such lengths? Wouldn’t it have been simpler to kill you just now? If you don’t get lost, I might really make a move."
Only then did Witch Doctor Gu He let out a sigh of relief.
But just as he was about to lift his foot, he suddenly stopped.
Then he carefully looked at the people and said, "Did you mean that I could stay too?"
"Don’t you want to stay?" Ling Han frowned.
This guy didn’t just look like he couldn’t wait to leave here a moment ago?
Is he changing his mind now?
At this moment, Witch Doctor Gu He quickly said, "I don’t want to leave, I want to stay, can I?"
Since that guy didn’t plan to kill him, of course, it’s better to stay.
That is the child of destiny!
Only a fool would pass up an opportunity to please the child of destiny.
As the saying goes, when one person attains the path, even the chickens and dogs rise to heaven.
If he could gain some trust from that guy, wouldn’t he also benefit when he rises to great heights in the future?
After hearing Witch Doctor Gu He’s words, Ling Han and the others exchanged a glance and said indifferently, "Suit yourself."
Afterward, they said to Li Cang, "Housekeeper Li, you handle it."
Li Cang immediately agreed with a smile.
But in his heart, he let out a cold snort.
Where did this vixen come from? Ling Han and the others already told her to get out of the Eastern Palace, and she still wants to shamelessly stay behind?
She definitely wants to hang around to seduce the Crown Prince, right?
He certainly wouldn’t give this vixen a chance to ruin the relationship between the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess Consort.
Go live in the woodshed!
But on the surface, he cheerfully said, "Miss, what should I call you? Our residence doesn’t currently have any vacant rooms, just a side room that’s available. You’ll have to manage for now."
Upon hearing this, Witch Doctor Gu He immediately nodded, "Just call me Gu He. Alright, I’ll trouble you to lead the way."
Listening to Witch Doctor Gu He’s delicate voice, Li Cang’s vigilance only grew heavier.
Does she think talking to him like that will change anything?
He wouldn’t allow anyone to destroy the relationship between the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess Consort!
Then he pretended to be amiable as he led Witch Doctor Gu He to the woodshed.
When Witch Doctor Gu He saw it was a woodshed, his whole demeanor fell apart.
When had he ever lived in such poor conditions?
For a moment, a hint of anger surfaced on his face.
But from Li Cang’s perspective, his demeanor looked person was finally showing their true colors.
If you can’t stand it, just leave the Eastern Palace.
"Miss Gu, are you not used to such an environment? Yes, a young lady like you should live in a big house. Unfortunately, our residence only has this one empty room. If you’re not comfortable, you can find another place to stay." Li Cang said in a gentle yet sarcastic manner.
