Master, stop pretending. I know you are not a good person.

Chapter 8 I won't even do you a favor

He Qing felt that he had found the hiding place of the mother Gu in the fastest time.

The old woman had a special physique and could still survive for a while even if she was broken into two pieces.

But for some reason, when He Qing endured the nausea and dug out the mother insect, the insect immediately shrank and turned into a corpse.

He Qing frowned and hurried back to the outside of the hut, only to see the old woman lying there with cloudy pupils. She was no longer breathing, and the pile of poisonous insects around her were all dead as well.

Lu Li listened to her and stood still without moving. However, because he was frightened, he said in a panic: "Master, she is dead..."

He Qing had no time to comfort him. His mind was filled with three words: Damn it.

According to the plot in the novel, Gu Changnian and the disciples of Tianxuan Mountain were locked up by the old woman for a day and a night. The poison damaged their heart meridians, causing the eternal lamp they lit when they entered the sect to flicker. This attracted the original owner and the head of Tianxuan Mountain, Guanyue, who killed the old woman before she could get close to her.

Afterwards, they rescued a group of disciples including Gu Changnian, but did not find the mother Gu immediately. It was only with Hua Chiyu's reminder that everyone discovered the special field.

However, when the mother insect was found, it was already dead.

In a helpless and urgent situation, Guanyue and the original owner used their own cultivation to help their disciples suppress the poison.

Before the original owner arrived, Gu Changnian stabbed the old woman at close range. He was the only person who was directly parasitized by the poisonous insect in the old woman's body. The original owner was seriously injured when he tried to save her.

But this time, He Qing found the mother Gu first, but she still died. Isn't this returning to the setting?
So, is she supposed to follow the example of the original owner and give her cultivation to Gu Changnian to bear the poison? !

This is the experience she has worked so hard to accumulate...

He Qing slumped his shoulders and was stunned for a while, but he didn't give up and picked up the dry insect to study it for a long time. Finally, he gave up with a hanging heart.

Lu Li, who was standing aside, secretly watched He Qing. Seeing her pursed her lips and looked heartbroken, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart: This woman, no matter how much she pretended not to care about Gu Changnian's life or death, she couldn't hide her thoughts at the critical moment.

As expected, she still has feelings for her apprentice.

He Qing had already accepted the reality. He looked up and sighed heavily. He thought to himself that if there was anything in this world that was more painful for a cultivator than not being able to break through, then not only would he not be able to break through, but he would also have to give away his cultivation...

However, this is also a turning point.

Now the story line has been changed and Guanyue will not appear. So, as long as she passes on her cultivation to the disciples of Tianxuan Mountain, she will naturally not be able to save her own apprentice.

In this way, Gu Changnian's foundation will be destroyed, so won't he be able to become a big boss?

With this thought in mind, He Qing did not delay any longer. He took the silent Lu Li by the hand and entered the old woman's shabby house. He found the locked-up disciple of the Immortal Sect in the cellar inside the house.

The scene was in a mess. The cocoons that wrapped them were like the yellow liquid in the old woman's body. After the old woman died, they all burst automatically and flowed all over the ground along with a pile of rotten insect corpses.

All the disciples were covered in mucus, their skin was severely burned, oozing red and yellow pus, and they curled up in the liquid, groaning in pain.

He Qing and Lu Li, who were standing at the door of the cellar, were dressed cleanly and tidyly. Compared with them, they not only seemed out of place, but even a little ironic.

"Chang Nian! Chang Nian, wake up!"

He Qing looked in the direction of the anxious call, and in the corner, Hua Chiyu was hugging the unconscious Gu Changnian, sobbing helplessly.

Noticing He Qing's arrival, Hua Chiyu looked over with tears streaming down her face and cried, "Master, please save Chang Nian quickly, Chang Nian's breath is very weak!"

He Qing pretended to be serious and soothed him, "Don't worry, check on the seriously injured people first."

Hua Chiyu wanted to explain the special situation that Gu Changnian encountered, but he stopped talking when he saw the people in his sect wailing in pain, so he finally remained silent. Yes, compared with other disciples, Gu Changnian had no external injuries at all, and was not corroded by the poison in the cocoon.

That's because he already has a more powerful poison in his body.

He Qing intentionally used external injuries to determine the severity of injuries, and anyone who heard it would find it reasonable.

Except Lu Li.

Lu Li held Yeying in his arms, and coldly watched He Qing checking the injuries of the disciples of Tianxuan Mountain one by one. Doubts began to arise in his mind again.

Couldn't she see it? Among all the disciples of the Immortal Sect, the one who was most poisoned was her own disciple, Gu Changnian.

But she wasn't even sure about Gu Changnian's situation.

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard He Qing say in a solemn tone: "You were all poisoned by the Gu. Unfortunately, I was unable to bring back the antidote in time."

When the disciples heard He Qing's conclusion in such a stern tone, they all panicked.

"Master, can we still be saved?"

"Please, Master, save our lives!"

……

The goal was achieved, and He Qing said confidently: "Don't worry, you will be fine as long as I am here."

Then, He Qing began to heal the injuries of the disciples of Tianxuan Mountain one by one.

Gu poison is not a very common poison. Relying solely on cultivation can only delay the onset of the poison. If you really want to remove it, you have to return to Lingshan and hand it over to a specialized medical unit: Kaiyang Palace.

However, even though the original owner had great magical power and strong cultivation, he could not stop so many people, a total of more than ten people. Although the poison they were infected with was relatively light, as they were treated one by one, cold sweat gradually seeped out of He Qing's forehead.

The disciples of Tianxuan Mountain also discovered this soon. From the initial excitement and relief at learning that they could be saved, they slowly calmed down and looked at He Qing with extremely grateful and ashamed eyes.

Seeing He Qing's face turning pale and his breathing becoming rapid and short, Lu Li, who had been standing aside and watching for a long time, couldn't help but frown and glanced at Gu Changnian in the corner without any expression.

Gu Changnian didn't know when he woke up. The poison in his body had already started to take effect. It must have been extremely painful, causing him to bite his lips until they bled.

But he didn't make a sound, just looked at He Qing with a complicated expression.

Lu Li thought that Gu Changnian might have the same question as him at the moment -

How could a person who only has his beloved disciple in his eyes waste his energy to treat others first?
About an hour later, all the disciples of Tianxuan Mountain, including Hua Chiyu, received the cultivation gift from He Qing.

He Qing, who was seriously injured, put away his skills and condensed his energy on the spot. He seemed calm, but his heart was filled with tears of sadness after giving away his experience...

Everyone was waiting for her patiently and worriedly. The disciples who had been dissatisfied with He Qing before were now as quiet as chickens.

After another stick of incense had passed, He Qing let out a long sigh and stood up, supporting himself on his knees.

Some sensible people were about to step forward to help, but were beaten to the punch by Lu Li, who seemed to have no sense of presence.

Lu Li lowered his head and silently allowed He Qing to put some of the weight on his shoulders.
