Tuantuan looked at Fu Yunchen with complete trust and drank the blood that flowed into her mouth.
Fu Yunchen, fearing that the blood wasn't enough, insisted on feeding him two more mouthfuls.
"Does it still hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt anymore."
Mu Run, who had been stunned by Fu Yunchen's words, suddenly snapped out of her daze when she saw Tuan Tuan with blood on his lips. Her face grew increasingly grim. "Why did you give him human blood to drink!"
She snatched Tuantuan back from Fu Yunchen's arms, her voice sharp with fear.
Her son is definitely not a monster!
Fu Yunchen said, "My blood can suppress the Gu worms' attacks, and they will temporarily enter a dormant state."
"What kind of blood is yours? Aren't you human?" Mu Run took two steps back while holding Tuan Tuan.
Huanhuan clutched at her clothes, looking equally frightened; she had never seen Murun so terrified.
Fu Yunchen looked at Huanhuan, feeling heartbroken. "Don't scare the child."
Mu Run immediately pulled Huanhuan behind her and said, "Speak."
Fu Yunchen could only try to appease Mu Run first, “My mother is the Red Witch Queen, and this left eye is a symbol of the pure blood of the Red Witch, but the world doesn’t know it. My blood can suppress all Gu.”
At this point, Fu Yunchen looked at Tuantuan and said, "I have the mother Gu of the Heart-Eating Gu, which can remove the offspring Gu from Tuantuan's body."
"Why would you have a mother Gu?" Mu Run became even more suspicious, and her thoughts even raced, connecting it to other places. "Was it you who first put the Gu on Hua Ling, trying to control her? She didn't want to be manipulated by you, so she ran away, and ended up dying in an accident?"
The more she thought about it, the more it seemed to make sense. Mu Run, holding Tuan Tuan and pulling Huan Huan, took a few steps back.
Fu Yunchen looked behind her and saw a steep downhill slope. He quickly said, "Stop! Don't move. Let me explain. Hua Ling was originally a Dark Raven of the Imperial Clan of the Northern Jin Dynasty. Dark Ravens are controlled by the Imperial Clan when they act outside, and the Heart-Eating Gu is their means of control. I obtained the mother Gu from the Imperial Clan. Only the mother Gu can cure the child Gu of the Heart-Eating Gu. Just as I was about to cure you, you were captured by Princess Xiao'an and pushed into the Jingyue River. Your head injury must have happened when you fell into the river."
Mu Run looked into his eyes, "You're not lying to me?"
"Absolutely not! I never lie!"
"The more someone says such things, the more likely they are to be a liar."
"Do you have any other options right now?" Fu Yunchen asked helplessly.
Mu Run looked down at Tuan Tuan in her arms. Indeed, she had no other choice at the moment.
After hesitating for a moment, he finally picked up Tuantuan, pulled Huanhuan along, and walked towards Fu Yunchen.
Fu Yunchen strode forward and took Tuantuan from her arms. By this time, Tuantuan had already fallen asleep.
The Heart-Eating Gu had still frightened him somewhat.
“Remove the curse from him,” Mu Run said.
Fu Yunchen nodded. "Mm."
...
As Fu Yunchen carried Tuantuan down the mountain, his heart was filled with mixed emotions.
Now I finally understand why Mu Run has been able to live peacefully without an antidote.
It wasn't some unexpected miracle, but rather the Gu worm had transferred into Tuantuan's body.
And coincidentally, Tuan Tuan's bloodline can suppress the onset of the Gu worm.
Why can Tuan Tuan's blood suppress the Zi Gu?
There is one possibility!
How could that be?
He clearly didn't...
Fu Yunchen, carrying Tuantuan, walked faster and faster, wishing he could grow wings and fly away.
Mu Run followed behind, carrying Huanhuan, but his speed increased, and even with his internal energy, he could barely keep up.
