After they finished fighting, the group could no longer bear the humiliation of being watched, so they covered their faces and ran away.

Shen Miao ignored them and instead smiled and clasped her hands in a fist salute to the beastmen who were watching the commotion, saying, "Uncles, aunts, brothers, and sisters, those people spread rumors about me while I was away from the Beast Domain, and even made my little beastman fight with my cub. I couldn't bear it any longer, so I took action to teach them a lesson. You are all smart people, so don't believe or spread rumors. Let's work together to make the Beast Domain a better place."

The beastmen listened with great enthusiasm and, without being taught, learned to clap.

At this point, no one would believe Shen Miao's rumors anymore, even if someone did. Of course, the person who spread them should consider whether they could withstand being slapped dozens of times.

The kids were beaming with pride, their smiles almost reaching the back of their heads.

"See? When you have the power, it'll be this easy to teach bad guys a lesson." Shen Miao took the opportunity to educate him.

"Mommy is mighty!" the children exclaimed, their eyes sparkling.

This matter became known throughout the entire Beast Realm. When Lin Shousheng came to visit, he made a point of mentioning it, jokingly saying, "It has to be you. When they were spreading rumors back then, I already explained it for you, and nobody believed it at all, tsk."

Shen Miao smiled and said, "Thank you, Uncle Lin. To deal with those shameless people, you have to be even more shameless than them."

Lin Shousheng laughed heartily; he was growing to appreciate Shen Miao more and more.

Orcs living together cause a lot of trouble, just like the old tribes, and it's still the same in the current beast realm.

Therefore, aside from treating patients, he doesn't usually have close interactions with people.

"Uncle Lin, you wouldn't come here without a reason, what brings you here?" Shen Miao asked proactively.

Lin Shousheng first congratulated Shen Miao on her return after completing her studies, and then got down to business, "I received a patient a few days ago who couldn't be cured no matter what I tried. Later I found out that the patient was probably under the influence of a Gu poison, so I came to find you."

Lin Shousheng only had a superficial understanding of Gu techniques; he could cure simple Gu, but he couldn't cure anything too difficult.

Shen Miao also wanted to test her abilities, so she went with Lin Shousheng after hearing this.

The afflicted beastman was itchy all over and scratched incessantly, suffering terribly. When Shen Miao saw him, he was rolling around on the floor of Lin Shousheng's house, shouting loudly that he was dying of itchiness.

Lin Shousheng said with a worried expression, "Look, that's it. At first, I thought he had been poisoned and tried to detoxify him, but it didn't work. That's when I thought of Gu magic, but I'm not very good at it. Take a look and see what's wrong with him."

Shen Miao walked over and squatted down. The afflicted beastman grabbed her hand and begged her to save him.

"Let go!" Shen Miao snapped. "I need to see what's wrong with you. Tell me how you got like this so I can treat you."

The orc said he knew nothing and that things had inexplicably turned out this way.

Shen Miao knew that some people were unaware that they had been poisoned by Gu, so she didn't think much of it. After examining him, she said to Lin Shousheng, "I can't cure this Gu. I have to go to the bamboo building and ask a Gu master to come over."

She rode a strange beast to the bamboo house, and the Gu Master immediately scolded her upon seeing her, "Why are you here again?"

Shen Miao didn't argue with him, and said honestly, "I've encountered a patient afflicted by a Gu poison that I can't cure. Gu Master, come with me. I'm afraid only you can cure the Gu poison."

"What? You've been learning from me for so long, and you still can't cure a Gu poison? I've wasted my time teaching you. Don't tell anyone you learned Gu techniques from me." The Gu master angrily scolded.

Shen Miao calmly replied, "Oh, then I'll just tell people that I learned my Gu technique from an old man in a bamboo house."

"Who's the old man?!" The Gu Master almost jumped up.

"Anyone who doesn't acknowledge me as their master is an old man."

The Gu Master pointed at Shen Miao, tapping her finger, but said nothing: "Fine, you little brat, I'm magnanimous and won't hold it against you."

Shen Miao smiled sweetly: "Gu Masters are the best, let's go then."

"Hmph." The Gu Master snorted heavily, packed his things, and took the lead in stepping out.

Shen Miao followed behind, and the two returned to the Beast Domain and headed straight for Lin Shousheng's house. The one who was afflicted by the Gu was still howling and rolling around. The Gu Master was startled as soon as he stepped in.

“It’s not the end of the year yet, so there’s no need for such a grand ceremony,” the Gu Master blurted out.

Shen Miao: "..."

She often felt that her master had a somewhat silly personality.

"Save me, please, save me, I can't take it anymore, I'm going to die," the man pleaded weakly, reaching out to grab the Gu Master's foot tightly.

Shen Miao gloated. Look, what happened to her has been repeated on the Gu Master.

The Gu Master finally managed to pull his leg free and glared angrily at Lin Shousheng, "Why didn't you tie him up? Are you just going to let him roll around like that?"

Lin Shousheng said helplessly, "If he's tied up, someone has to scratch his itch. Who has the time for that? Look at him, can you even tie him up?"

"Never mind that, tie him up."

The Gu Master's expertise is undeniable.

So Lin Shousheng took out a rope, and together the group tied up the person who had been poisoned by the Gu.

As soon as the man was tied up, he began to howl desperately. Just as he opened his mouth, an unknown object stuffed it into his mouth.

Ignoring the orc's angry glare, the Gu master began examining his body. After a moment, he slowly said, "This kind of Gu poison is indeed very difficult to cure."

Upon hearing this, Shen Miao's face darkened.

So, after initially criticizing her for her lack of skill and scolding her for a long time, has she apologized to her now?

"So Master also finds it difficult, so it's not that I'm not skilled enough, right Master?" Shen Miao quickly reminded the Gu Master.

The Gu Master glanced at her indifferently and said, "Difficult to cure doesn't mean impossible. At least I don't need to ask anyone for help, understand?"

Shen Miao's face froze.

So he'll never apologize to me, you old geezer!

The Gu Master ignored Shen Miao's expression, lowered his head to stare at the Gu-infected person, and said in a cold tone, "Tell me yourself, how did you provoke this kind of Gu worm?"

The person afflicted by the Gu poison avoided eye contact: "How...how would I know?"

Lin Shousheng added from the side, "He probably doesn't know that people who are afflicted by Gu usually don't know it unless they have some knowledge of this."

But the Gu Master didn't listen. He just stared at the person who had been Gu poisoned, his eyes clear and cold, and his voice was also cold. "Tell me yourself how you were poisoned. I'm only giving you this one chance."

The person afflicted by the Gu curse suddenly burst into tears, crying out, "I don't know, I really don't know! Why are you forcing me like this? I'm already in so much pain! If you can heal me, can't you heal me first? Please, Master!"
