Chapter 378 The Holy Son of Miao Territory is Bewitched by the Villainous Cult Leader (16 chapters)
"Now you're panicking? What were you doing when you were raising them? You had about seventeen by now, right? What, are you planning to gather a hundred and eight heroes and then compete with Gu Shixian for the position of sect leader?"
Bai Yue'er snorted coldly and said nothing more.
She couldn't be bothered to pay him any attention. Her little mouth was a complete knock-off of Gu Shixian's, like a mad dog, spitting at anyone she could get her hands on.
"Bai Yue'er, why aren't you saying anything?"
"Shut up right now, or I'm afraid I'll be tempted to sew your lousy mouth shut."
Bai Yue'er glared at him fiercely, and Mu Qingfeng knew she wasn't just trying to scare him, so he immediately shut his mouth.

The four of them waited outside the door for an unknown amount of time. Just as the sun was setting and the sky was turning red, Yu Sheng finally pushed open the door and came out.
He looked exhausted, his brows furrowed with fatigue, and his face was slightly pale. If you looked closely, you could even see that his lips were dry, cracked, and trembling.
"Holy Son, you've finally opened the door!"
A-Lu and A-Zi tugged at Yu Sheng's sleeves on either side. They could tell that their Holy Son looked unwell, and they quickly asked with concern, "Holy Son, why do you look so pale? Why don't we rest for a bit?"
"Yes, yes, the little girl is right. Why don't you rest for a while? You do look a bit pale."
Yu Sheng slowly shook her head and said in a hoarse voice, "I still have something I want to talk to Gu Shixian about. Do you know where he is?"
Mu Qingfeng and Bai Yue'er exchanged a glance and shook their heads in unison.
"Forget it, I'll go find him myself..." Yu Sheng let go of A-Lu and A-Zi's support and took a few aimless steps.
His slender figure successfully aroused Mu Qingfeng and Bai Yue'er's pity.
Yu Sheng swayed precariously, her legs gave way, and she collapsed to the ground.
Ah Lü and Ah Zi were the first to react, rushing anxiously towards Yu Sheng, calling out, "Holy Son—"
"Holy Son, wake up! Holy Son, please don't scare Ah Lu and Ah Zi, okay?" Ah Lu and Ah Zi, kneeling on the ground, shook Yu Sheng, who had fainted, with great effort, their voices gradually turning into sobs.
"Waaaaah... Holy Son, please don't die! What will happen to Ah Lu and Ah Zi if you die?"
The two girls' sobs successfully brought Mu Qingfeng and Bai Yue'er, who were still in a daze, back to their senses.
The two of them hurried over, taking two steps at a time.
After checking Yu Sheng's breathing, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.
Thank goodness, she just fainted and is still breathing, otherwise they might have cried along with Ah Lü and Ah Zi.
"Ah Lu, Ah Zi, your Holy Son has just fainted. Let's take him to the Grand Elder first."
Bai Yue'er gave Mu Qingfeng a look, and Mu Qingfeng's eyes widened. He pointed at himself and said, "No, you want me to take him to the Grand Elder? If the Sect Leader finds out, he'll skin me alive."
"Mu Qingfeng, you better hurry up and get to work!" Bai Yue'er narrowed her eyes. Mu Qingfeng glanced at Yu Sheng on the ground with a troubled expression and sighed.
In the end, he succumbed to Bai Yue'er's tyranny.
However, before he could lift Yu Sheng off the ground, a large hand suddenly slapped away the claw that was about to touch Yu Sheng.
He knew who it was without even looking up.
Gu Shixian, seemingly out of nowhere, pushed past Mu Qingfeng, picked up Yu Sheng, and carried her back to his room.
Mu Qingfeng, who was pushed onto his butt by his own sect leader, was speechless.
Ha, if you weren't interested in her, could you suddenly appear and carry her away? Why didn't you let me and Bai Yue'er carry her?
Mu Qingfeng didn't want to say anything.
With their leader like that, his mouth is the toughest thing about him. Not only is it tough, but it's also venomous. It's like he's got a full stack of buffs.
Gu Shixian didn't care what his two subordinates were thinking. He carried Yu Sheng and walked quickly back to his room. When he looked back, his two foolish subordinates were still squatting on the ground without moving.
Gu Shixian's face instantly turned cold. "If you two don't go and invite the Grand Elder over, do you expect me to personally go and invite him?"
Suddenly being called upon, Mu Qingfeng and Bai Yue'er dared not speak. They used their lightness skills to go to the First Elder's residence, grabbed him by the collar, and carried him over like a chick.
"You two! Don't you know how to respect the elderly and care for the young?!" The First Elder straightened his clothes, his beard bristling and eyes wide with anger.
Gu Shixian didn't care about respecting the elderly and caring for the young. He didn't even have morals, so how could he possibly understand what respecting the elderly and caring for the young meant?
"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and see what's wrong with him," Gu Shixian interrupted the elder's complaints, pointing to Yu Sheng, who was lying on the bed, pale-faced and unconscious.
The Grand Elder looked in the direction his sect leader was pointing and saw the legendary sect leader's wife unconscious.
No wonder the cult leader was acting like he'd been shot; it turns out his wife was in trouble.
The elder calmly took the pulse, but after he did, he lost his composure.
He stared in shock at Yu Sheng lying unconscious on the bed, and almost cursed in front of Gu Shixian.
"Tell me! What exactly happened to him?"
The First Elder looked at Ah Lu and Ah Zi, whose eyes were swollen like walnuts, with a troubled expression. He really didn't know whether he should tell his sect leader.
"I asked you to talk about his situation, so why are you looking at those two little girls?"
"Yes..." The Grand Elder took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "Madam's constitution... is clearly that of a medicine person, and with the addition of raising Gu with her own body, I... I can't figure out what's wrong with Madam for the time being."
The Grand Elder was almost in tears.
He's already been quite tactful in his words. With the cult leader's wife's pulse like that, how is she even alive?
Although Gu Shixian didn't understand Miao Jiang Gu techniques, he knew how dangerous "medicine people" and "using one's own body to raise Gu" were, and that a slight mistake could cost him his life.
But Yu Sheng is clearly the holy son of Miao Jiang, so how could he be turned into a medicine man and even used to raise Gu poison?
Gu Shixian's expression was not good, and he looked at the Grand Elder as if he were looking at a dead man.
The elder's legs went weak, and he almost knelt down before him.
"Useless trash, what use are you to me?"
Grand Elder: Yes, yes, I am useless. If you have any ability, please wake up the lady.
"You two... what's wrong with Yu Sheng's body? Wasn't he always in the room turning Ji Changyun into a puppet? How could he suddenly faint?"
Mu Qingfeng and Bai Yue'er, who thought they had escaped this calamity, froze and lowered their heads even further.
Leader, you're asking us? Who are we supposed to ask?
The two felt more aggrieved than Dou E, and they couldn't help but wonder if Yu Sheng could really put up with their leader's bad temper.
Even Bai Yue'er felt that her leader's temper was even more volatile than hers had been those past few days.
