Ling Qi's screams continued; this pain was several times worse than the dozen slaps Mo Shisheng had given her.
"My eyes... my eyes! Ah!! Ming Beiya, my eyes!"
Ling Qi broke down in tears, trying to cover her eyes with both hands, but the pain made her afraid to touch them. Tears mixed with blood slid down her swollen cheeks.
Ming Beiya was furious and quickly used his magic to relieve Ling Qi's pain, stuffing a pill into Ling Qi's mouth, "I'll take you back."
"Take care, I'm going home tonight."
Mo Shisheng smiled gently. Seeing Ling Qi's disheveled and broken state, he finally felt much better.
But Ming Beiya's worried expression really made her uncomfortable.
Mo Shisheng had tried her best to ignore Ming Beiya's worried attitude towards Ling Qi, but Ming Beiya just wanted to make her feel uncomfortable.
"We'll settle today's score later."
"what ever."
Mo Shisheng was numb with heartache at Ming Beiya's words. When he said those words, Mo Shisheng seemed unable to feel any more pain.
She has never been a soft-hearted person. Ling Qi provoked her time and time again, but she didn't hold it against her. Now she's just giving her a lesson.
In Mo Shisheng's eyes, this was far from enough.
After Ming Beiya left with Ling Qi, Qing Luan, Chi Hu, and Zhu Que had no choice but to leave as well. Soon, only Mo Shisheng and Bei Rao remained in the palace.
As soon as they left, Mo Shisheng seemed to have shed all her armor, and she sat wearily in her seat, her upper body resting on the cold table.
Seeing this, Bei Rao frowned and sat down next to Mo Shisheng, gently placing a hand on Mo Shisheng's head. "Shisheng, what exactly happened between you and him?"
"I don't know either……"
Mo Shisheng shook her head, looking exhausted and unwilling to say a word.
But this was indeed her honest answer, because she truly didn't know what was going on between her and Ming Beiya.
She went to see Gui Su today, and she still remembered what Gui Su had said...

Mo Shisheng and Bai Hehan didn't have to wait long at the mountaintop, unlike Bai Hehan who had to wait until night to see the Ghost Mansion.
In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Gui Su returned to the outside of the house. When he saw Mo Shisheng, he showed no surprise at all, as if he had known all along that Mo Shisheng would come to find him.
Bai Hehan tactfully went inside the house, leaving the two of them alone to talk.
Mo Shisheng cut to the chase, asking, "Has the poison in Ming Beiya's body been neutralized?"
"It's solved?"
Upon hearing this, Gui Su's face revealed a half-smile. He glanced at Mo Shisheng, his tone tinged with disbelief, "You understand this poison, do you really think there's a way to cure it?"
"You mean the poison was only brought under control, not cured?"
This was an answer Mo Shisheng hadn't considered. When she saw Ming Beiya standing unharmed in front of her, she assumed that Ming Beiya's poison had been cured.
But now Gui Su tells her that the poison is only being controlled, not cured at all.
"Ling Qi only suppressed the poison in Master's body by using her own blood and the specially developed medicine; she did not completely eliminate it."
When mentioning Ming Beiya's physical condition, Gui Su's tone and expression became much more serious, abandoning his nonchalant and cynical attitude.
