Chapter 603 Who Gave You the Courage to Threaten Me?
Red Wolf instantly shot out and grabbed the old lady by the neck. “Lift the curse.”
The old lady looked at Red Wolf with her hollow eyes. “My curse can never be lifted.”
Lu Fenying’s eyes almost pierced the old lady like swords.
“I think you must be tired of living.” Lu Fenying approached her with Qian’er in his arms. “I will have the baby today.”
The old lady chuckled. When she smiled with her sunken cheeks and empty eye sockets, it made a person’s hair stand on end.
Gu Bailu understood when she heard Lu Fenying’s words – he was here for the baby.
How did he know who Qian’er was, or that she was carrying his child?
“That’s easy. All you need to do is gouge out her eyeb.a.l.l.s,” the old lady said sinisterly and derisively.
She had lived for so many eyes and had experienced much..
She didn’t have eyes, yet she was more perceptive than anybody else with regular eyes
Lu Fenying frowned, but before he could say anything, Qian’er suddenly pushed him away and jumped out of his arms and into Gu Bailu’s. “No, I don’t want to lose my eyes. Help me, master.”
Gu Bailu was astounded by Qian’er’s reaction. Why was she choosing her eyes over her baby now?
Lu Fenying had not expected Qian’er’s action at all, and failed to stop her. His eyes turned even colder when he heard what she said. “The baby has to be saved. Come here.”
Gu Bailu hurriedly sheltered Qian’er behind her. “Your Highness, it’s my disciple’s decision whether or not to save the baby. It’s none of your business.”
Though Qian’er’s decision was surprising, Gu Bailu knew that she had to have her reasons.
“If anyone dares to hurt my child, don’t blame me for being ruthless. It won’t help even if you’re Princess Zi.” Lu Fenying a.s.serted Gu Bailu’s ident.i.ty.
Gu Bailu was stunned. How did he know who she was?
He had gone to receive an important guest earlier. Had he found out from this important guest?
Who was it?
Could it be Feng Qingtian? Unlikely…
If it was Feng Qingtian, there was no way he wouldn’t have come along.
Besides, there was no way he could leave Pale Emperor City.
“Mo Qian’er, come here. Don’t make me repeat myself.” Lu Fenying stared at Qian’er darkly.
Qian’er hid behind Gu Bailu; she was too frightened to look at him but she wouldn’t listen to him either.
She was a lot better after drinking the herbal soup and had regained her energy.
She couldn’t sense the so-called curse at all.
Gu Bailu quietly grabbed her wrist and examined her, only to find that her pulse was normal.
It was possible that the curse hadn’t attacked her yet.
The old lady said from the side, “The curse will attack in a quarter of an hour, and the baby will die. Hehe… If you don’t give me the eyes I ask for, don’t think you can get what you want.”
Lu Fenying grabbed her by her silver hair and flung her out. “Who gave you the courage to threaten me?”
“Ahhhhhh…” The old lady gave a wretched scream after she was thrown into the Five Poisons Forest’s poisonous water.
Qian’er clutched Gu Bailu’s hand tightly, determined not to go to him. She did her best to tell herself to calm down. She couldn’t let him intimidate her or be his slave again.
Gu Bailu chuckled. “I don’t know what you’re talking about, Your Highness. How can my disciple be carrying your child? If you want to have a baby, there are tons of women out there who would be more than happy to help. Why would you have to pick up someone else’s kid?”
