Ruan Yuebai seized this opportunity and wanted to run outside, but she couldn't use her hands and feet at all, and even her head was dizzy.

Seeing that she couldn't even open the car door, Mu Xiao frowned, then got out of the car, walked to her side, and hugged her out of the car.

"You, you let me go..."

She still wanted to struggle, but when she saw Yan Xiuqi standing beside the car, a burst of intense fear suddenly appeared on her face.

"Don't, don't come here!"

She tried to escape from Mu Xiao's arms with all her strength, but she had no strength in her limbs, and almost fell to the ground.

Fortunately, Mu Xiao had quick eyes and quick hands, he held her tightly in his arms, and then looked at Ruan Yuebai with a distressed face.

"Mu Xiao, don't leave me here, okay?"

Ruan Yuebai, who was still tough just now, turned around, looked at Mu Xiao pitifully and said, "I beg you, don't let me be here..."

The appearance of her sudden weakness made Mu Xiao feel in a trance that her main body soul had regained the initiative in her body.

But seeing the faint cold light in her eyes, Mu Xiao gritted his teeth fiercely, then looked up at Yan Xiuqi.

"Where did Ruan Ruan live during this time?"

"You come with me."

Yan Xiuqi didn't even look at Ruan Yuebai, turned around and walked towards the inner palace. Mu Xiao simply picked her up and followed him towards the inner palace.

The closer he got to the inner courtyard, the weaker his limbs became, and his mind gradually became chaotic.Through the clothes, Mu Xiao could even feel that her body temperature was slowly rising.

The people of the Jingu Palace prepared a secluded hut for her. The decoration in the room was clean and antique. When Mu Xiao put her on the bed, he realized that she had completely lost consciousness.

"This house has the power to suppress evil spirits. She needs to stay here for seven full days before the shrine can perform the soul purification ceremony."

"Seven days?"

"Yes."

Yan Xiuqi nodded, "And she will have a high fever for the past seven days, and she will even keep talking nonsense. So, you'd better get out of here."

"impossible."

Mu Xiao immediately vetoed his proposal, "Until Ruan Ruan recovers, I will not leave her for half a step."

"But you will soften your heart." Yan Xiuqi looked serious, "Once you soften your heart and take her out of this room, then everything you have done now will be in vain.

Mu Xiao, the backlash of a possessed soul is much more terrifying than you imagined. "

After the words fell, Mu Xiao was silent for a moment, and finally nodded.

"Don't worry, I won't let her leave this room."

Yan Xiuqi wanted to say something more, but seeing his determined gaze, he finally pursed his lips, then turned and left the room.

After a while, someone from Jingu knocked on the door and brought in a glass of water.

"Mr. Mu, this glass of water was prepared by the envoy, and Mrs. Mu must drink it all every day."

"understood."

Looking at the water cup brought in, Mu Xiao nodded, and the palace servants of the Jingu Palace didn't say much when they saw this, but quietly closed the door.

Ruan Yuebai was in a coma for three days. During the three days, Mu Xiao didn't leave the room a step, except to feed the glass of water to Ruan Yuebai little by little according to Yin Xingyuan's request, he just sat by the bed and looked at her quietly.

Outside the room, Zhong Xu handed Wu Si a bottle of water, then looked up at the sky.

"Master has not eaten or drank for three days. You said that if the two of you are both physically broken, will it be the turn of the two of us to work as nurses without eating or drinking?"

Zhong Xu made a rare joke, Wu Si raised his eyebrows, and then laughed.

"Do you dare to joke about the boss?"

"My lord is just serious, not a tyrant."

Zhong Xu raised his eyebrows, and then said casually: "But if you continue to suffer like this, your body will really have problems."

While talking, Mu Xiao's voice suddenly sounded in the room: "Ruan Ruan, are you awake?"

Before opening his eyes, Ruan Yuebai heard a reassuring voice from beside him.

"husband?"

Slowly opening her eyes, she looked around through the blurred vision.

"Where am I?"

"Hideous Hunting Shrine."

Mu Xiao spoke in a low voice, and then gently held her palm.

Her body temperature was still very high, and her cheeks were also a little strangely red, Ruan Yuebai twisted her body uncomfortably, and then firmly held his palm back.

"Honey, I'm sorry." She apologized without reason: "I really didn't mean to treat you that way yesterday."

She was stunned for a while as she spoke, and then realized that another soul in her body did not come out to seize control of her body at this time.

So she hurriedly said: "I found that there seems to be another soul in my body, which is controlling my body and making me say those..."

"I know."

Seeing her hastily explaining, Mu Xiao stretched out a finger and gently placed it on her lips.

"That's why I brought you here."

"Then am I okay now?"

Due to the high fever, her limbs still had no strength, so she could only lie on the bed and said pitifully: "Husband, I feel so uncomfortable, shall we go home?"

Her voice was soft and waxy, like a kitten's paw, gently scratching his chest.

Seeing her acting like a baby, Mu Xiao instinctively wanted to nod.

But thinking of Yan Xiuqi's words in his mind, he forcibly held back.

"Be patient, in order to strangle the possessed soul in your body, you must live here for seven full days according to the arrangement of the shrine."

"But I'm so hot, and I'm so dizzy." Ruan Yuebai's voice was filled with tears, which made people's hearts soften, "I want to go home, to Tanyuan."

"Will go back."

Mu Xiao hugged her gently, and whispered in her ear, "Be good, sleep again, we can go back when your fever subsides."

The high fever made Ruan Yuebai dizzy. Under Mu Xiao's persuasion, she obediently closed her eyes and fell asleep soon.

Seeing that she was asleep, Mu Xiao stood up and opened the door.

"Master, you are finally out! Is Madam awake?"

Seeing him coming out, Zhong Xu immediately greeted him.

"Where's Yan Xiuqi?" Mu Xiao didn't answer his question, but said indifferently.

"Never been here." Zhong Xu shook his head, and then said, "Master, are you looking for him?"

"never mind."

Mu Xiao shook his head and opened the door again, "There are still four more days, thank you for your hard work."

In the early morning of the next day, the palace servants of the Jingu brought another glass of water every day, but they didn't expect to see Ruan Yuebai holding Mu Xiao's hand and acting like a baby when he opened the door.

"Mrs. Mu, you're awake."

She put water on the small table next to the bed, and gently felt Ruan Yuebai's body temperature with the back of her hand.

"I really want to go home."

Seeing the palace servant standing by the bed, Ruan Yuebai raised her head and said pleadingly, "Can I go home?"
