The second senior sister of the Tianmen Sect, Ye Li, died.
On that very day, the entire sect ignored her pleas for help. They were celebrating the fact that the mortal girl Su Ying'er, wh...
Chapter 100 It was you who poisoned me!
Kuangshagangwai
Wen Yao led his disciples away and escorted them aboard the ship, instructing them to immediately report what had happened to the sect upon their return.
Just as Su Ying'er was about to board the ark, she noticed Wen Yao turn and head towards Kuangshagang. She immediately lifted her skirt and ran after him.
"Third Senior Brother!"
Su Ying'er asked breathlessly, "Where are you going? Aren't we supposed to hurry back to Tianmen Sect to ask for reinforcements?"
Wen Yao looked worried. "It's almost dark, and Xiao Wu and the others still haven't come out. I'm afraid they've encountered danger."
He looked at Su Ying'er and said, "You go back to the sect with them and inform your master. I'll go to Moon White Lake to take a look."
"No! You can't go!"
Su Ying'er's voice suddenly became high-pitched, which was quite different from her usual lively and cute self.
Wen Yao was somewhat surprised and frowned slightly. "Why are you reacting so strongly? Aren't you worried about their lives?"
Su Ying'er realized what was happening, placed her hands on Wen Yao's arms, her eyes brimming with tears, "How could I not worry about Fifth Senior Brother? You are all my family, your lives are more important than mine. But I also feel sorry for you, Third Senior Brother. Your medical skills are superb, you are always healing others, but who cares about you?"
As she spoke, she took Wen Yao's hands in her own. "Look, you've been helping others heal their injuries, but you haven't even taken care of your own hands. Third Senior Brother, I know you only have Second Senior Sister in your heart, but Ying'er has you in her heart too."
Her choked voice instantly dispelled Wen Yao's previous aversion.
Seeing the slightly everted skin on his hand, a sense of melancholy welled up in his heart.
Ah Li never asked about the same wound; perhaps she never even noticed it.
But Ying'er felt so sorry for him...
The reason Su Ying'er tried so hard to move Wen Yao was to prevent him from going in.
Otherwise, if he were to run into Shaluo Ru and find out that Mo Hannian's Gu poison had nothing to do with Ye Li, how would she cope?
Despite being moved, Wen Yao did not give up his decision to go in, but his gaze towards her softened considerably, and he patted her head as he used to.
"Alright, I understand your concern for your senior brother, but Xiao Wu is still inside, and... Jiang Li, I absolutely cannot ignore them."
Moreover, he has already missed one chance to save Ah Li, and he absolutely cannot miss a second one!
Seeing that Wen Yao had made up his mind, Su Ying'er felt an unprecedented sense of panic.
It's like the panic of something shameful about to be exposed.
No, she can't panic.
She's about to get everything she wants, she absolutely mustn't panic!
Thinking of this, Su Ying'er raised her small face and said softly, "Then I'll go with you."
"But you have no spiritual power, you'll be in danger..."
"I'm not afraid!"
Su Ying'er stubbornly said, "As long as I can be with my third senior brother, I'm not afraid of anything. If we can't get out, I'll die with you all."
“Ying’er…”
Looking at her like this, Wen Yao's heart softened.
Although Su Ying'er is a little willful, she is lively, cute, and cares for everyone. Ye Li, on the other hand, is cold on the outside but warm on the inside, and meticulous and considerate.
Both were excellent women, and he thought that once Ye Li returned to the Lotus Sect, he would definitely help them live in peace.
At that time, Lu Ziting and Su Ying'er, and he and A Li, will help Mo Hannian find the antidote, and his body will recover. Bai Xiaosheng and Yuan Ce will return, and the Lotus Sect will regain its former harmony.
Wen Yao's eyes lit up with longing, and he said gently, "Okay, let's go and bring them back together."
-
On the other side of Moonlit Lake, Mo Hannian is in danger.
He is currently in a standoff with "Wen Yao".
"Who are you! Is there any antidote for this poison here?!"
Wen Yao let out a strange laugh, a very eerie laugh, a sharp and hoarse clucking sound, like the chirping of some kind of insect coming from a damp and dark cave.
"Who am I? Don't you remember me?"
As soon as he finished speaking, his skin shone with a strange luster, and then, as if an eggshell were cracking, it peeled off piece by piece.
The shed skin fell to the ground.
Ye Li then realized what that luster was—it was the wings of an insect.
As the fragments fell in a flurry, Ye Li felt nauseous and involuntarily took two steps back.
At the same time, Xie Sixing's comment rang in his ears, "Tsk tsk, this kind of shapeshifting is disgusting."
Ye Li wholeheartedly agreed.
Wait, how did Xie Sixing see that?
When the last piece of skin peeled off, the person in front of me became a completely unfamiliar figure.
He looked like a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy with skin that was always pale and never saw the sun. He had slanted eyebrows that reached his temples, an eerie appearance, and eyes that revealed madness and cunning.
This unbelievable scene left Mo Han stunned.
Wen Yao, or rather, Sha Luoru, circled around Mo Hannian. As he walked, the bone bells at his waist made a sound that was somewhere between crisp and dull.
The voice pulled Mo Hannian back from his shock. That voice…
Shaluo's eyes, as lifeless as a dead fish, lingered on the black markings on Mo Hannian's face. After a moment, he let out another strange laugh.
"I never expected that you would still be alive after being poisoned by my Gu."
Gu poison?
In that instant, Mo Hannian remembered.
Several years ago, on the day he was attacked at Moonlight Lake, he heard the sound of bone bells in his ear as he fainted.
"It was you! You're the one who poisoned me!"
Mo Hannian's eyes were bloodshot with rage, wishing he could tear him to pieces.
Despite his chained body struggling wildly, he cried out, "I'm going to kill you!"
He wished he could kill the person who had dragged his life into hell right now.
If it weren't for him, his cultivation level would definitely not be lower than Ye Li's, and he would definitely not have become a waste!
Faced with his dying struggle, Shaluo laughed so hard he almost fell over, his laughter sometimes sounding like a boy's, sometimes mature, and sometimes old.
The sound echoed in circles, as if a demonic sound were piercing the ears.
Ye Li felt a pressure on her internal organs, her blood and qi were churning, and her head was throbbing with pain.
Xie Sixing kindly reminded him, "Young Taoist priest, sound is also a kind of Gu technique. Unless you have a special fetish, it's best to cover your ears."
Ye Li immediately covered her ears to avoid disturbing her mind.
Mo Hannian wasn't so lucky; in fact, his reaction was several times more intense than hers.
Not only did blood begin to seep from his eyes, ears, nose, and mouth, but the black lines on his face also seemed to come alive.
Beneath the skin, something seemed to be trying to break out, pushing upwards again and again.
Finally, Shaluo stopped laughing. Seeing Mo Hannian's pained expression, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes. "You're actually not dead?"
Logically speaking, he had been poisoned by his Gu poison for so many years, and just now, after being catalyzed by him, those Gu worms should have immediately devoured him and burst out of his body. How come he didn't die?
This piqued Shaluo's curiosity. Instead of killing Mo Hannian directly, she raised a finger to her lips and whistled.
The next second, a rustling sound rang out.
Countless insects crawled up the altar from all directions, and onto Mo Hannian's limbs.
Just looking at it gave Ye Li goosebumps.
Mo Hannian was equally shocked and shouted, "What are you doing!"
If Shaluo did not answer, a buzzing sound like that of an insect would emanate from his throat.
A moment later, his face turned grim. "Your Gu poison only recently took effect! Tell me! Which divine doctor treated you? I'm going to kill him!"
Hearing Shaluoru's words, Mo Hannian sneered, "Are you saying this to deliberately exonerate Ye Li? You're all in cahoots!"
Shaluo Ru: "Ye Li? Who is that?"
