Putting aside his status and position, his physique and appearance alone are rare to find in this world.
“You clearly love me. You haven’t been with anyone else all these years. You’ve remained chaste for me. I understand all of that.”
Gu Fei snorted coldly, "Holy Maiden, you misunderstand. I'm not looking for anyone else because they're not good enough for me, and I don't want them."
It was only then that Lan Lingjing realized that Gu Fei was a cold-hearted and heartless person.
"Fine, fine, if you're ruthless, don't blame me for being unjust."
Lan Lingjing activated the mother Gu within her body, and Gu Fei felt a sharp pain in his head, and soon he became confused.
He felt very hot, as if an evil fire was coursing through his body, setting him ablaze wherever he went.
He saw himself take off his clothes and walk towards Lan Lingjing, and the two fell onto the bed.
After a while, Lan Lingjing ran out of bed with her clothes in her arms, her face turning red and white in turns.
"how so?"
Lan Lingjing finally understood: Gu Fei was no longer capable, which was why he had lost his desire. Overwhelmed with shame and anger, she grabbed her clothes and ran away.
Gu Fei slowly woke up, the experience still vivid in his mind. He was filled with hatred. The Holy Maiden had actually controlled him and even tried to do something indecent to him.
This feeling was awful. He couldn't control his body. Thinking back to those days, he was probably also tricked by the Holy Maiden, which led to that one night of marriage.
Gu Fei quickly got dressed and left the room. He needed to get a checkup, as he had just experienced a health problem.
"You mean the girl you had a one-night stand with was from Miao territory?"
The doctor narrowed his eyes, having made a decision.
"What's wrong? Is something inappropriate?"
Gu Fei felt uneasy; he had a vague sense of foreboding.
The doctor nodded. "Women from Miao areas are skilled in poisons, especially Gu poison. You've been poisoned by Gu."
Gu Fei was horrified; no wonder his head was throbbing with pain.
"You mean I have a Gu worm in my head?"
The doctor nodded. "Your Gu worm is very likely a love Gu. It parasitizes your brain and cannot be expelled. Moreover, the mother Gu can control it. If it makes any unusual movement, it will bite your brain, causing the Gu to fly away and you to die."
Please forgive me, but I am powerless to help; these Gu worms are beyond my ability to deal with.
When Gu Fei returned home, he thought about the changes in himself over the past three years. He hated Lan Lingjing to the core, and all the affection from their past life was gone.
He wanted to capture the saintess and have her remove the curse from him.
Soon, the guards of the Prince's Palace began to search for Lan Lingjing's whereabouts.
Lan Lingjing hid and fled, and she hated Gu Fei to the core. She never expected that Gu Fei would be so useless. What use is such a good-for-nothing?
Having thought things through, Lan Lingjing decided to take her son back to Miao territory to properly serve as her holy maiden and train her son to compete for the position of wizard.
Before she left, she had to do one thing: get rid of that good-for-nothing Gu Fei.
She walked to the vicinity of the Prince's Mansion, where she could sense the offspring Gu. She activated the mother Gu, and the offspring Gu began to stir. It wandered in her head, trying to break through her skull.
Gu Fei screamed in pain, alarming everyone. Xiao Li watched coldly, unsure whether to save him or not.
Although the original owner hated Gu Fei, all these troubles were caused by him, but she still relied on Gu Fei in her heart.
Furthermore, in ancient times, it was very dangerous for a family to be without a male head of household, especially if the eldest son was still young and unable to support the family.
"My son, what's wrong with you?"
The old princess rushed in from the backyard, her clothes disheveled and her face showing obvious panic.
After thinking for a moment, Xiao Li decided to save half of him and let him live.
Xiao Li approached Gu Fei and pressed his pressure points, rendering him unable to move.
He watched in disbelief as a beautiful, pale blue flame flew from Xiao Li's fingertip and entered his forehead; he could even hear the sizzling sound of grilling.
His head stopped hurting, and the flame flew out of his forehead again, returning to Xiaoli's hand.
He really was alive. Gu Fei's brain was severely damaged, and he was paralyzed. He couldn't control his body at all and could only lie in bed watching, unable to even speak clearly.
All of this happened so fast that no one else saw it. Only Gu Fei knew very well that Xiao Li had saved him, but he couldn't say anything. He could only stare intently at Xiao Li.
Seeing that her son had gradually calmed down, the old princess quickly asked the imperial physician to examine him.
"Madam, the Prince is dying. He was poisoned by a Gu worm from Miao territory, but thankfully the Gu worm is now dead."
However, the Gu worm just now moved in his brain, damaging his head. It seems the prince will have to spend the rest of his life in bed.
The old princess retreated repeatedly, unable to believe that her son, who was still so young, was already failing.
