Beast Taming Mad Concubine: The Useless Young Lady is Back!

Chapter 619 Soul Fusion

As soon as Yi Moxu appeared in the Cloud Dream Realm, Ye Qing'an noticed him.

Ye Qing'an turned to leave, but Yi Moxu's voice rang out behind her: "I told you to rest properly here, and this is how you rest?"

Ye Qing'an coughed lightly and waved the book in her hand: "It was too boring staying here, so I came down to read a book."

"I've already tried it, and I'm fine. It's okay."

Yi Moxu just pursed her lips and looked at Ye Qing'an without saying, "There are quite a few books upstairs too."

"Well, I just wanted to take a walk. In the Cloud Dreamland, the spiritual energy is most abundant around this spiritual spring. I feel more comfortable here."

Having been captured both ways, Ye Qing'an stopped hiding and just blinked at Yi Moxu: "You've only been gone for a few hours, and you've already taken care of everything outside?"

“No.” Yi Moxu pointed to the remnant soul glowing with a ghostly light in the spiritual spring: “I’ll take it away.”

Ye Qing'an immediately understood: "You want to take the remnant soul back to Gu Duo? To awaken Gu Duo?"

"Ah."

Ye Qing'an was also extremely curious: "You said that Gu Duo is hiding a secret that could shake the world. What exactly is that secret?"

"Want to know?" Yi Moxu raised an eyebrow, a smile appearing in his eyes as he looked at Ye Qing'an's curious expression.

Ye Qing'an nodded, readily admitting, "I'm curious."

"Would you like to come with me back to Li Huo Pavilion?"

Ye Qing'an's eyes lit up immediately: "Is that okay?"

Yi Moxu thought of the things he was currently planning outside and smiled slightly: "Sure, but since you're still recovering from your serious injuries, you'll have to stay by my side at all times."

Ye Qing'an rolled her eyes and agreed.

Yi Moxu took a container and filled it with spirit spring water. Because the container was also forged from spirit stones, its spiritual power was more mellow than that of spirit spring water alone. The remnant soul then floated up onto the container.

Yi Moxu took Ye Qing'an's hand and led her to Li Huo Pavilion.

The Li Huo Pavilion was brightly lit. The two had only been inside for a short while when Yu Jie rushed over: "Lord."

"Hmm." Yi Moxu nodded, then lightly put his arm around Ye Qing'an's shoulder. "Where's Gu Duo?"

"He's asleep," Yu Jie replied softly. "He hasn't been sleeping well for a while, often going for days and nights without sleep. The doctor from the Ge family went to see him and said that this wouldn't do, so we tried to put some medicine in his food. Only by putting medicine in his food could we get him to sleep more soundly."

"However, his condition has improved slightly since he was able to sleep well. He no longer goes crazy at the drop of a hat, and he doesn't make a lot of noise anymore."

"Good, it's good that he's asleep. Let's go take a look."

Yi Moxu led Ye Qing'an to the courtyard, where Gu Duo was indeed still sleeping.

Perhaps because it sensed Gu Duo's presence, the remnant soul began to become restless, jumping around incessantly.

When Yi Moxu brought the remnant soul to Gu Duo's side, the remnant soul moved closer to Gu Duo on its own.

Then it suddenly burrowed into Gu Duo's brow.

"This remnant soul is still able to recognize a master, but we don't know how they extracted it from Gu Duo's body in the first place."

As Ye Qing'an was sighing, he saw Gu Duo suddenly open his eyes.

Yi Moxu grasped Ye Qing'an's hand and pulled her behind him.

Ye Qing'an peeked out and saw that Gu Duo on the bed had already sat up, his eyes bloodshot. Then he suddenly let out a roar, turned his head, and stared at Yi Moxu.

"What's going on? Why does he seem even more insane now that his soul has returned to its place?"

As soon as Ye Qing'an finished speaking, she saw Gu Duo suddenly bend over, clutching his head, screaming in pain, and tearing at his hair as if he were in great pain.

Yi Moxu held Ye Qing'an's hand tightly: "It's probably because the soul has been separated from the body for too long, making fusion difficult. Soul fusion will bring great shock and pain to the body..."

"Are we just going to let him hurt himself like this?"

Yi Moxu turned her head and glanced at Ye Qing'an: "You go out first."

"I……"

"Go out first." Yi Moxu squeezed Ye Qing'an's hand: "Even if Gu Duo's soul returns to its place, at his peak, he may not be my match. I will subdue him and lock him in the place where I was when the Fire Eye flared up. I will release him after his soul is completely clear."

After a moment's consideration, Ye Qing'an nodded.

Gu Duo was merely a Supreme Being, and so was she. He was no match for Yi Moxu, and neither was Gu Duo.

With her there, Yi Moxu felt constrained and restricted.

Ye Qing'an quickly left the courtyard, and Yu Jie followed suit, standing protectively around her.

Soon, commotion came from inside the house: painful wails, the sound of things falling to the ground, and sounds of fighting.

Ye Qing'an stood quietly in the courtyard, her hands clasped tightly together, listening intently.

A moment later, a loud bang suddenly came, and a large hole suddenly appeared in the roof. Yi Moxu and Gu Duo leaped out of the house one after the other, then flew across the courtyard and headed into the distance.

Yu Jie quickly led Ye Qing'an over there.

By the time the two arrived, Yi Moxu had already left the house.

Where is Gu Duo?

“He’s locked up.” Yi Moxu said calmly, “I chained him up to make sure he can’t hurt himself. Let’s wait a bit, we can go in and take a look later.”

"Ah."

From time to time, roars and the sound of iron chains being pulled and dragged could be heard from inside the house.

Ye Qing'an recalled what Yi Moxu had said earlier: this room was originally intended to be used to lock him up when he was away from Huo Mou.

Before meeting her, and before knowing that her blood could dispel the Fire Eyes, Yi Moxu had to endure the pain of the Fire Eyes every month, and was imprisoned inside.

Ye Qing'an pursed her lips, but then remembered something else: "Before... before you were in the Monster Forest, you fought with that forest-suppressing beast. Why did that trigger your Fire Eyes? I remember, that day wasn't a full moon night, was it?"

Yi Moxu's expression remained calm: "Because of the Soul-Locking Curse."

"At that time, the beast that controlled the forest used a soul-locking spell on me, but because I practiced the Fire Separation Technique, the soul-locking spell tried to lock my consciousness and soul, which triggered the Fire Separation Eye."

Ye Qing'an nodded: "I see."

The two exchanged a few words, and the roaring sounds from inside the room gradually subsided until they could no longer be heard.

Yi Moxu and Ye Qing'an exchanged a glance. Ye Qing'an narrowed her eyes and asked, "There's no movement anymore. Has he woken up?"

"Perhaps." Yi Moxu grasped Ye Qing'an's hand: "Let's go in and take a look."

The two walked over, and Yi Moxu opened the door. Looking up into the room, he met a pair of dark eyes.
