Chapter 1406: Bone Forging
Yet she was not able to support her weight and slid down flaccidly to the ground.
Xu’er’s heart ached when she saw this, and she shouted nonstop, “My lady, my lady!”
“Help, help me over to the queen dowager’s! Help me over!” Commandery Princess Yi’an said tearfully with reddened eyes.
No matter what, she had to go and try, regardless of how slim the hope. She could not just entrust her future life to a stranger so casually like this.
She refused to resign herself to this, she refused to!
A summer rain suddenly came down at nightfall. The pouring rain gushed down like a hole had opened up in the sky.
Soon, thunder rumbled through the sky.
Two people were kneeling in the rain, with the water spraying at their faces. They were unable to open their eyes from how hard the rain was hitting them.
Feng Gu strode up to the two people while holding an umbrella. She looked down at the two frail women kneeling on the bluestone tiles and shook her head, advising, “Commandery Princess, it is raining hard outside. You had best return as early as possible.”
“Nanny Feng, I want to see the queen dowager! Nanny Feng.”
“The queen dowager has already turned in to rest.” Feng Gu looked at her coldly before saying to Xu’er, “Why aren’t you quickly bringing your master back?”
“Nanny Feng, I want to see the queen dowager, I want to see the queen dowager, Nanny Feng!”
“Do not forget your place, Commandery Princess. Who is Her Majesty the Queen Dowager? Is she someone at your beck and call, whom you can see whenever you want to?” Feng Gu swept her an indifferent glance and said, “You are not leaving? Do you want me to command the royal guards to come carry you back?”
These words were extremely blunt.
Commandery Princess Yi’an turned limp at once. In her shock and rage, on top of getting exposed to the wind and rain, her eyes rolled back as she fainted in Xu’er’s arms.
“My lady, my lady!!” Xu’er screamed.
Feng Gu snickered on the inside while wearing a sneer on her face. She turned to a junior royal maid behind her and instructed, “As the commandery princess is unwell, go to the Royal Physician Building and request for a royal physician to come take a look.”
“Yes.”
As Xu’er supported her miss who had fainted, she shouted toward Feng Gu’s leaving figure. “Nanny Feng, Nanny Feng!”
In the end, Xu’er’s heart turned cold.
It turned out that after losing the queen dowager’s favor, every step she and her master took in this palace was so difficult.

After Qiao Mu consumed the bone forging pill, she delved into a marvellous state.
When she activated her inner sight, she could see the bone marrow and meridians in her body rapidly being forged and enlarged at a speed visible to the naked eye.
This process was naturally not a wonderful one, but after experiencing the pain of fusing the secret realm into her dantian, all of this did not amount much to Qiao Mu anymore.
She stilled her breath and mind as she sat there cross-legged, and she just watched with rapt attention as her bone marrow and meridians transformed inch by inch under the forging of the bone forging pill.
At this time, her bone marrow was gradually enveloped with a white glow from her leg bones to her ribcage all the way to her skull. The look of it was extremely sacred and holy.
If there were someone else present, they would certainly be extremely astonished to see the young crown prince consort emitting a sacred white halo from her body.
When her skeleton completely turned into a shimmering white, Qiao Mu understood that this should be the transformation that the sapling Qiuqiu was talking about, the remolding of a mortal skeleton to a mystic skeleton.
At this time, the changes in her body were very obvious. Not only was she able to withstand greater pressure, but her offensive power had already reached the point where she could hurl a level-15 mystic cultivator flying with a heavy punch, as well.
It was difficult for her to find a match beneath the spiritual realm!
