When Gu Wan opened her eyes, she saw a young man kneeling at the foot of the distant steps. He was thin and was being caned. His entire back was a bloody mess, but he kept pursing his lips and said nothing. There was no trace of blood on his face, but his back was still firm and his fingers were slender, but now the veins were bulging, indicating that he had reached the limit of endurance.
The original owner's request was still to get the male protagonist's love, and to save the lives of everyone in the Quanxu Sect, so that her brother would no longer be a traitor.
This is an old, melodramatic cultivation story. The protagonist, Sui Lian, is extremely talented. To avenge his parents, he comes to the Quanxu Sect. Later, he makes the original host fall in love with him and gain the trust of the original host's father. On the day of their wedding, he cooperates with the original host's half-brother to overthrow the Quanxu Sect. The original host can't believe the truth until the protagonist personally removes the lifeline at her heart and gives it to the heroine. After the bright red wedding dress is soaked in blood, it seems even more red, and the original host's life ends at this point.
A reader left a long comment in the comment section, in which he mentioned the original owner in two sentences.
"She doesn't need to blame the hero. It's just that she didn't judge people well enough, so she can't blame others. Saving the heroine is her only value, which is not bad. The hero also didn't kill her because of her face, which can be considered as a gesture of loyalty."
Gu Wan found it ridiculous that he was using the feelings of a kind and ignorant woman to achieve his goals. He was not afraid of being laughed at by the world for being shameless. There were actually people praising the love between the hero and heroine.
The original owner had been weak since childhood and had no spiritual roots, so she could not practice cultivation throughout her life and rarely appeared in the Quanxu Sect. The original owner's father, Gu Qingsong, was the master of the Quanxu Sect. Although he was not a good person, he loved his daughter very much.
Gu Xing, the younger brother of the original owner, whose mother was a maid of Quanxu Sect, took the opportunity to climb into bed with her. Gu Qingsong had no intention of killing her and expelling her from the sect, but ten months later, she came to Gu Qingsong with the newborn Gu Xing and asked him to marry her. Gu Qingsong would not be threatened, and after taking the child, he killed her with a palm.
Gu Wan felt that if she wanted her brother to stop being a traitor, she could just find a reason to kill him now, but this approach would not be recognized by the quick-travel system.
"What mistake did that person make?"
Standing next to him was Gu Qingsong's eldest disciple and Gu Wan's senior brother, Qin Yang.
"Little Junior Sister, please don't look at it. The bloody smell will easily give you nightmares."
Gu Wan shook her head, her innocent eyes revealing stubbornness.
Qin Yang knew he couldn't persuade her. "As an outer courtyard disciple, he hit an inner courtyard disciple, which is against the sect's rules."
Gu Wan pursed her lips and said "oh", her eyes still fixed on him.
Sui Lian raised his head and looked straight at the girl. She was wearing a green half-gauze skirt. Her waist was very thin, just enough to be held in one hand. Her face showed innocence, as if she was ignorant of the world, but her eyes were very charming.
Their eyes met, seemingly calm and peaceful.
Gu Wan turned her head indifferently and said, "Where is Daddy? I haven't seen him for half a month." Then she turned around and walked into the hall. He should just take the beating for a while longer; he wouldn't die anyway.
Qin Yang didn't stay around and followed Gu Wan inside.
Sui Lian finally couldn't hold on, beads of sweat the size of beans on his forehead dripped onto the floor, and then he fainted.
The Quanxu School is now developing very vigorously.
Cultivation is divided into six levels, each of which is divided into three levels, namely Qi training, foundation building, golden elixir, Nascent Soul, Mahayana, and God transformation.
Gu Qingsong is now at the third level of Nascent Soul, and he can reach Mahayana if he breaks through.
The leader of the Quanxu sect has been in seclusion for half a year and is at the second level of Mahayana.
"Hello sister, hello senior brother." Gu Xing had just come out of the study and bowed to Gu Wan.
The original owner was not familiar with him and probably only saw him a few times a year. Gu Qingsong was not good to him either and was extremely serious towards him on weekdays. The difference in his treatment of the original owner was that Gu Qingsong's mother was his beloved, but she died unexpectedly in the year the original owner was born.
Gu Wan looked at him for a while. The boy had just grown up and his temperament was particularly cold. He was also a handsome young man with broad shoulders and a narrow waist. The jade pendant on his waist seemed to be very well-behaved as his owner walked.
Qin Yang and Gu Xing grew up together and have a good relationship. "He's been away for three months, so he must have improved a lot. Let's have a discussion later."
Gu Xing was dignified and polite, "Then I'll have to ask for advice from Senior Brother."
Qin Yang smiled and patted his shoulder, "Okay, your sister and I still have to go see the master."
Gu Wan walked into the study, still thinking about Gu Xing. He looked like a polite gentleman. Everyone in Quanxu Sect had a good opinion of him because he was very kind to others, never flattering the powerful and looking down on the weak, and never treating people differently based on their identities. But in the end, he personally handed the Quanxu Sect over to Sui Lian, resulting in the death of almost everyone in the sect.
That day, the Quanxu Sect was flooded with blood, which was something that those who used to be with Gu Xing day and night never imagined.
When Gu Qingsong saw Gu Wan coming in, his frown immediately relaxed. "Come sit down. Are you tired after walking all the way here?"
Gu Wan's frail body was a problem she had from birth. She couldn't even walk a few steps and kept gasping for breath.
Gu Qingsong took out a wooden box covered with a layer of gas, then waved his hand to open the box.
"This is a lifeline. There is only one in the world. It can keep you safe."
Qin Yang was also very happy, staring at Gu Wan with eyes wide open in surprise, "Junior sister, congratulations."
Gu Qingsong began to give Gu Wan medicine, inserted the life-extending thread into her wrist, and then began to supply her with air, transporting the life-extending thread to her heart.
Qin Yang protects the law.
It took about an hour to complete.
When Gu Wan opened her eyes, she clearly felt that this body seemed to have strength.
"Thank you, Dad."
Beads of sweat broke out on Gu Qingsong's forehead. "No need to be polite to Dad." He had been searching for his daughter for more than ten years. He had already lost his wife, and his daughter must not be harmed in any way.
"You are feeling better now. I will find another way to enable you to practice." His daughter is so beautiful, she still needs to be able to protect herself.
Gu Wan bowed and saluted, "Thank you, father. But I am not afraid as long as you are protecting me."
Gu Qingsong had just returned and the sect was busy with affairs, so Gu Wan did not stay long and went out with Qin Yang.
As the eldest disciple of the master of Quanxu Sect, Qin Yang rarely gets to travel, and now he is very eager to exchange ideas with Gu Xing.
Gu Wan was fine.
"Brother, let me go with you."
Qin Yang didn't dare to hold Junior Sister Gu Wan's hand in the past, but now she is in good health. Before, Junior Sister Gu Wan always stayed in her own residence and seldom came out. Now she should go out more often.
"Okay, Gu Xing's cultivation has definitely improved a lot. You can be the referee and see who is stronger, me or him."
Gu Wan smiled and nodded.
Gu Xing was making tea in his yard. He had a smile on his face when he saw Qin Yang, but when he saw Gu Wan behind him, his eyes darkened.
Gu Wan discovered that the person he disliked the most was probably his sister.
"Big Brother, Sister."
Qin Yang had been here many times. He sat on a stool in the yard, picked up a cup of tea and drank it in big gulps.
"I can't wait."
The difference between Gu Xing's residence and Gu Wan's is like heaven and earth.
There were more than a hundred people serving Gu Wan in her yard, but Gu Xing hadn't seen anyone here so far.
"Sister, please sit down." Gu Xing, a tall and slender man, said, "Sister, you're not feeling well. I'm afraid you can't drink the tea here."
Qin Yang watched from the side, "It's okay, Master has already put the Life-Extending Grass into Junior Sister's body, so it should be fine, but she just can't practice."
Gu Xing's eyes were full of surprise, and then he congratulated Gu Wan, "Congratulations, sister."
Gu Wan noticed the surprise in his eyes and felt a little mocking in her heart. Gu Xing wanted to kill herself, and it was really hard for him to pretend. He wanted to avenge his mother and his life for the past sixteen years.
To put it another way, his mother climbed onto the bed voluntarily, had high aspirations, and plotted against her master, so she deserved to be killed. Although Gu Qingsong treated him poorly for the past sixteen years, he did raise him and did not mistreat him. No one in the Quanxu Sect looked down on him.
"It is indeed a happy event. I hope that in the future I can also practice like you, Ah Xing, and not let Dad worry anymore."
Gu Xing looked up at Gu Wan, and pretended to look away while they were staring at each other.
Qin Yang also began to spar with Gu Xing.
Gu Wan knew a lot about cultivation. She had been to places with the same worldview. Just by observing, she knew that Gu Xing was hiding his abilities. His level should have been on par with the eldest senior brother, but he was deliberately suppressing it. The young man was really scheming. She shook her head and smiled.
In the end, it was no surprise that Gu Xing lost.
Qin Yang put away his sword and looked at him, "You've made great progress this time, but you still need to be more solid. There's no need to be so impatient."
Gu Xing expressed his humility and appreciation, "Thank you, Senior Brother."
Gu Wan had just been bored and folded a bamboo dragonfly with the bamboo sticks on the table. "This is for you, Ah Xing. I'll go back first." She saluted Qin Yang.
Gu Xing also bowed to Gu Wan.
Gu Wan came here to verify Gu Xing's ability. She also needed to go back to practice. The original owner herself lacked spiritual roots and was physically weak. Now with the life-extending grass in the heart, there was no problem. She planned to go back to prepare medicine. Spiritual roots can be cultivated after birth. It was a method she remembered from the previous mission to another world. In this world where force controls everything, life is worthless and she needs to protect herself.
Qin Yang was busy with his work and didn't stay long.
Gu Xing sent Qin Yang to the door, then came back and sat down, looking at the lifelike bamboo dragonfly on the table. He was only one year younger than Gu Wan, and he had never touched such a thing since he was old enough to understand. With a disdainful smile on his face, he thought that the life-extending grass could be used on her, which was such a waste. She would die early.
The courtyard where Gu Wan lived was in a great location with a beautiful view. There was a stream flowing slowly in the courtyard, and there were flowers and grasses planted there. The original owner loved to take care of these things very much.
The maids were also in good order.
Gu Wan returned to the room and recalled the prescription, then picked up a pen and wrote it down. The herbs were not difficult to find, and the prescription seemed very ordinary, so it should not attract attention. The original owner of the Quanxu Sect's pharmacy was a frequent visitor.
In a messy room.
The boy was lying on the bed, his back covered in blood.
The old man applied medicine beside him, "Young Master, why are you doing this? The Quanxu Sect is more powerful than it was back then. It will be extremely difficult for us to avenge the master and his wife."
Sui Lian gritted his teeth and remained silent for a long time before he spoke, "Uncle Geng, there's no need to say anything. I've made up my mind." The girl from today flashed through his mind, "I've already thought of a way."
