"From then on, I have been figuring out how to make the Gu on my own. You see, my blood is almost sucked dry. I barely look like a human anymore, yet I am still so weak." Xiaoyue burst into tears, and after wiping them away, she continued her story calmly, with a hint of despair and giving up.

Shi Yue must have really couldn't hold on any longer, so she had no choice but to tell Manager Chen about her Gu-making and live with him.

"I also want to be like Master Lu, so powerful, yet compassionate, and bring benefits to the people."

...It would be good to have a spiritual pillar. Li Yirou would not say much about the Yijian Sect, so that Xiaoyue would have someone to admire and perhaps she would have more faith to live.

No wonder she was so pale and thin. Li Yirou was reminded of the sadness in her heart. Everyone has their own difficulties and is the protagonist of their own story.

"Then is there any token of trust between you and your tribe members?" Xiaoyue helped her suppress the tracking Gu. Li Yiru thought that at least she had to try her best to help her find her tribe members.

Xiaoyue shook her head and smiled bitterly, "I have nothing left except these memories."

"I think, since you are so perceptive, if you can find my people, tell them what I said, and maybe they can come and pick me up. I remember that all the people in my tribe are like one family, and they will definitely not hurt you."

"There is a poisonous insect in my body, and it didn't come from you. Maybe you have any tribe members nearby?" Li Yirou didn't want to hide it from her anymore. She thought that if she helped her find her tribe members, maybe she could get rid of the poison completely.

"I've looked for it, but there's none in the Western Realm. We can sense each other." Xiaoyue looked at Li Yirou in surprise. "We can give the Gu worms we refine to others. As long as they are placed in Gu cocoons, they can be preserved for many years. He just needs to control the mother Gu when using it."

"You are from here?" Xiaoyue felt that she had revealed all her secrets and there was nothing to hide between them.

Li Yirou nodded, "To be honest, although I have five spiritual roots, my wood spiritual root is of good quality. Someone saw it and actually wanted to take over my body."

Xiao Yue frowned, "Possessing a body? Wouldn't that affect your luck, or even cause great damage? Isn't that an evil practice that goes against the will of heaven?"

Li Yirou shook her head. "I don't understand either. Maybe his time is coming up and he doesn't want to die."

After she finished speaking, Shi Yue did not raise any further questions, which meant that her lie was quite successful. If this reason was acceptable, people would not speculate that she had any other special features, and having an outstanding spiritual root was not something that would attract much attention.

Shi Yue sighed in her heart, everyone has their own difficulties. After thinking for a while, she took out a storage bag from her arms and took out a soft leather mask. "I'll give you this face-changing mask. It's a mid-grade magic weapon. There's no use for me keeping it now. It can change your appearance, or even your gender."

The grass Gu in her body can provide spiritual power, but perhaps due to errors in refining the Gu over the years, it has had a great impact on her body. Every time she needs to use spiritual power, she has to supply blood to the Gu. Shi Yue has tried her best not to use it.

This magic weapon consumes a lot of spiritual energy, so she hasn't used it for a long time. It would be better to give it to the girl, hoping that she can escape the disaster and get out of the Western Realm one day. As for whether she can find her tribe members, it all depends on fate.

The price of a mid-level magic weapon starts at 5 mid-level spirit stones. For Li Yirou, it is also a huge sum of money, but it is really useful and can help her conceal her tracks. Li Yirou reached out to take it, "I... I don't have anything to give you for now."

If helping her suppress the tracking Gu was conditional on helping her find her tribesmen, then this mask was an extra thing, and Li Yirou didn't know how to repay her for a moment.

Although she values ​​friendship when interacting with others, for her, friendship is also a kind of exchange and can be measured by the value of commodity attributes. After all, emotional value is also value.

She generally doesn't give anything to others on her own initiative, but if others give her something, she doesn't want to owe them anything.

This mask was given for free, and Xiaoyue was still living such a miserable life, which made her feel embarrassed. "If there is a chance, I will try my best to give you an equivalent..."

"No, you just need to help me find my clansmen. If I can't find them, maybe it's my fate." Xiaoyue smiled at her. After all, this was the most powerful cultivator she could meet and who could help her.

None of the other cultivators here wanted to leave the Western Realm. Even if there were, she had never had the chance to meet them in all these years.

There are powerful cultivators in Yijian Sect, but ordinary people like her cannot get in touch with them, nor dare to expose themselves. Only this girl can make such a deal with her.

"My name is Shi Yue, and I won't tell anyone else about our conversation."

She swore again, and Li Yirou smiled at her, "I won't tell anyone about your affairs except your people. My name is Li Yirou."

"But I just thought about it. We were seen by others when we were together. If someone asks you in the future, you can just say that I asked you about the situation in the town."

"Okay, this makes sense." After a brief thought, she reached a consensus with Li Yirou.

"Shi Yue, I don't think it's ridiculous to be dependent on others. Being able to be dependent is also your ability. It's just that you are not in control and don't feel that secure. I think he is not bad and a kind person. You don't have to feel unhappy about it."

Li Yirou gave her the last bit of comfort, which was also her true thought. Survival is already difficult, and if you think about so many unnecessary things, you will not be able to live.

She removed the formation only because Manager Chen could no longer wait. He grabbed the thief, covered his face, and told him not to probe around and to follow them to look for them.

Shi Yue did not comment on her comfort, and Li Yirou also understood her reluctance.

She was originally a Gu maker. If she could live with her fellow tribesmen and have someone to teach and guide her, she would definitely not be in the state she is in now, where she has ruined her body and is almost dying.

Moreover, she simply could not accept being separated from her mother like that. This was a thorn in her heart that was still taking root, causing her endless pain. Now she was putting all her hopes on others. This was the best choice she had no other choice.

Li Yirou didn't think it was funny, but it was a pity. At the same time, she saw the huge flaw of no one to guide her, but she was tired of the master and didn't want to think about it anymore.

Shi Yue returned to Brother Chen, nodded to Li Yiru, and went to the exit in advance to maintain order.

Li Yirou looked at the pile of bat droppings on the ground. She pinched her nose to pick it up, and even contaminated a storage bag.

Although the magic tools have self-purification functions, their number is so large, and they are not like space that has the ability to seal dead objects. It will take some time for the smell inside to dissipate.

It's piled here and no one comes to collect it, so it must be worthless.

Looking at the pile of bat droppings, Li Yirou felt it was a pity. Oh, forget it. Since she was already here, the giant tree was so beautiful and she just wanted to take a closer look at it.
