Blaming it on his territorial nature, the marks are not even discretely hidden. Even if she wore high collared robes, that does not match the warm season, the kiss marks on her neck are still noticeable.

With a heavy breath, she can just let it pa.s.s and allow it to heal on its own later, she also may need to hide here for a while.

Judging by the place high spiritual energy, this is a very good location to cultivate and she would not like to miss it.

She then checked some more changes to herself on the mirror. The scars are all gone now, just like what he said. However, her red eyes are now also back to its mortal color, black.

Not really understanding why, she decided to check on it later, prefers to have a warm bath instead of looking for answers that she won"t find any time soon.

Going out of the room after wearing her robes and picking up a bathing cloth, she was welcomed by Kai Kai on its pup form.

"Hmm, good that you did not leave me alone." She said crouching down to pick up the pup to run her hand to its soft fur. Her unkempt hair falls on the hound"s face, making its nose twitch adorably and make a light sneeze.

The courtyard is probably just bigger than the Gao Master. The rooms are not much but the place is eerie silent.

For some, it will creep them out, especially when they heard the screeching noise from somewhere.

Not Gao Lan Mei though, as she is used to being alone. If ghost exists during her confinement, she will probably welcome it as a companion.

After some more turns, Gao Lan Mei saw a small hot spring at the back of the courtyard. The place is secluded enough surrounded by mud walls high enough to make sure no one can take a peak.

Satisfied, "You will be my guard. If Wei Jiayi peaked, bite him. Understood?" Patting the hound"s head, then turning around to take off her clothes to soak to the hot spring.

She did not see the questioning look from the hounds face, wondering why it needs to bite its master. Nevertheless, an order is an order from the kind mistress.

Her muscles immediately relaxed after a moment of just staying in the hot water.

Gao Lan Mei giggled after seeing Kai Kai watching the only entrance to the spring attentively, crouching low to attack anyone who wants to go inside.

...

Outside the Hidden Courtyard on Mount Hua

"Are you sure this is the place?" Ming Ya confirmed. There should be no mistake. She makes Wei Jiayi realize that she is the best choice to be his wife, not the waste Gao Lan Mei that is running around, no one knows where she is now.

The female servant nodded nervously, "Yes miss," she is not aware of what crazy idea her miss is doing. Whatever it is, it"s not good. However, she does not have a choice but to obey.

Who would be on their right mind, would ever consider a barbaric prince to be a husband? To the point of planning to seduce the man. Probably a m.a.s.o.c.h.i.s.t who loves pain.


The prince even wears a mask all the time, probably too ugly for the world to see.

"Miss are you sure about this? Is this safe?" the servant asked looking around the forest. Despite them having to hire Immortal cla.s.s missionaries for safety, is that even enough?

"Do not worry our plan is good. Gather the dried leaves," Ming Ya said, taking out incense to burn then sticking it to the ground where the dry leaves are collected.

It did not take long when they heard the signal for some of the missionaries to attack the front gate of the courtyard to attack Wei Jiayi"s hidden guards.

As soon as the attack started, she then burned the leaves with a bunch of special incense, the smoke reaches all over the place, then she took a pill to make sure not be affected if ever she accidentally smelled the smoke.

Grinning wickedly, "I am going in." Ming Ya jumped over the wall of the courtyard using qinggong.
