Evil Prince, Come Play With Me Chapter 578 - Slave Mark

Chapter 578 Slave MarkShe couldn’t be discovered.

After lunch, Qian’er took another of the 9,999 Spring Harbingers.
The last few days had indeed been quite busy for two pregnant women, and they took a nap after lunch. When Gu Bailu woke up, she realized that Ah Luo might come looking for them, so she went into the grove behind the courtyard and found a wild goose. “Brother goose, do me a favor.”
Two geese flapped their wings and came over. “What is your command?”
Any human who could speak the language of birds was an immortal, and they didn’t dare be disrespectful.
“Help me deliver this letter to a man at 4 Auspicious Spring Alley. He’s very tall and brawny.”
One of the geese picked up the envelope. “Okay.”
The pair of wild geese flapped their wings and flew away.
Walking around the grove, Gu Bailu caught a couple of black ants. “Go to the main courtyard and help me find out where that person called Su Muwei is staying.”
To win a war, one had to know the enemy well. At the very least, she had to find out where Su Muwei was.
If anything happened, she could use this person as a shield.
“We don’t dare go there. The main courtyard is heavily guarded. We’ll die,” the ants said in low voices.
“Fine then.” Gu Bailu released them.
Qian’er caught up to her. “Master, who are you talking to?”
“The animals in the grove.” Gu Bailu smiled. “You didn’t know that I could communicate with animals, did you?”
Qian’er’s eyes bulged. “You’re so awesome.”
“It’s nothing. If you’re willing to learn from me, you can be just as awesome.” Gu Bailu felt that Qian’er had potential, and if she was willing to learn Gu Bailu’s skills, she could be even better than her.
However, Qian’er shook her head. “I’ll pass. Please teach my baby instead.”
She already no longer had any prospects. She had little spiritual power and was also marked as a slave; she couldn’t cultivate even if she wanted to.
“Wouldn’t it be better for your baby to learn from you?”
“No… it’s no use for me. All the servants in the crown prince’s residence are under a slave contract. Our spiritual power is suppressed and we can no longer cultivate.”
Gu Bailu was about to say that her family skills didn’t require spiritual power, but decided to leave it since the fact was that she herself needed spiritual power too in this world.
She didn’t want to give Qian’er hope, only to disappoint her after.
“Do you know where Su Muwei is staying?” asked Gu Bailu.
Qian’er shook her head. “I did, but she switched locations after something happened. Also, even if I did know, it’s impossible to make contact with her.”
“What kind of person is she?”
“Weak. Very weak and pitiful-looking. But that’s just on the surface. In fact, she’s very vicious. I used to serve her, since it was convenient for me to feed her blood, but she always set me up and made Lu Fenying hate me more and more.”
Qian’er described it simply, but Gu Bailu could imagine how Su Muwei played the innocent and framed Qian’er.
Lu Fenying certainly wouldn’t tolerate anyone wronging his lover. Naturally, he wouldn’t be soft with Qian’er.
“She drank your blood, so you were her lifesaver. Yet she was so mean and ungrateful… Only an idiot would want her.” Gu Bailu snorted.
“Right. Have you ever heard of Lu Fenying’s Sky Splitting Mirror?” Gu Bailu asked Qian’er, not really expecting an answer.
It was unlikely that Lu Fenying would let a maid like Qian’er know anything about such a precious item.
“I do.” Qian’er’s answer was unexpected.
“You do? Where is it?”
“Lu Fenying once saved Su Muwei with it. Is it a broken mirror fragment which glows with a bright light and contains an enormous amount of spiritual power?”
