Chapter 12: The Crazy Gui Jiang

As dawn broke, a car had slowly come to a stop outside Villa Number 30.

The first to step out was an elderly man with a face showing signs of fatigue. However, his eyes had retained their discreet brilliance, giving him an aura of unspoken authority.

If any passerby happened to be there, they would have surely been shocked. In Huaxia, there was hardly anyone who wouldn’t recognize this old man.

Mu Yan! One of the most significant figures in Huaxia’s top echelons!

Following closely behind Mu Yan was a person draped in a large black robe, their entire form concealed within. It was none other than Elder Mu, a Holy Master from the Demon Exorcist Sect.

“Shall we first check on the condition of my granddaughter and then rest?” Mu Yan turned and asked Elder Mu.

“Of course! I hadn’t expected to be delayed this long. Let’s go check on Wu Yi,” Elder Mu responded, his voice grating like metal on metal, making one uncomfortable just hearing it.

On the second floor of the villa, both Mu Yan and Elder Mu were momentarily stunned as they reached the top of the stairs.

“Mu Si! Why are you standing outside with Ghost Master Tian?” Mu Yan asked sternly, reproach filling his eyes.

Upon hearing this, Mu Si quickly stepped forward and bowed, his heart sinking as he hurriedly explained the situation. Mu Yan had initially thought a renowned expert was treating his granddaughter, only to discover that it was an unknown youth.

Just as Mu Si had finished explaining, Elder Mu’s hair-raising voice chimed in, “Mu Yan, I know you’re anxious, but this reckless attempt… Ah, Wu Yi’s condition is already dire. If we muddle through this, not even I…”

Hearing this, Mu Yan cast a disappointed look at Mu Si and chastised him, “Reckless! This is utterly reckless!”

With that, Mu Yan strode toward Wu Yi’s room, wondering if it was still possible to prevent Li Chen from proceeding further. Over the past year, he had sought the assistance of many renowned experts to remove the curse on Wu Yi; none had succeeded. What could an unproven youth accomplish?

Just then, the door to Wu Yi’s room creaked open, and Li Chen emerged with his hands behind his back.

“How did it go?” Mu Si rushed up to ask Li Chen urgently.

“I’ve temporarily suppressed it. She’s inside; go see for yourself,” Li Chen answered indifferently, ready to leave.

“Hold it!” Gui Jiang interjected with a cold laugh, “Kid, you think you can just leave after messing things up? You say you’ve suppressed the poison? Why not go ahead and claim you’ve removed it?”

Li Chen stood with his hands behind his back, uninterested in wasting any more words with Gui Jiang.

Seeing this, Gui Jiang became even more certain that Mu Wuyi inside the room had already succumbed to the poison. If it weren’t for the presence of Elder Mu and others, Gui Jiang would actually want to thank Li Chen. After all, now Mu Wuyi’s death would be blamed entirely on Li Chen, saving him a lot of trouble.

However, Gui Jiang knew that now was not the time for gratitude but an opportunity to save face. He therefore feigned anger and shouted, “Kid! If Holy Master Elder Mu truly couldn’t make it in time, I naturally would have saved her! Who are you to intervene?”

“Gui Jiang!” Elder Mu stopped Gui Jiang who was about to continue talking, silently walked up to Li Chen and said, “Young one, you… ah, never mind.”

Elder Mu tensed up upon hearing this. He had already sensed that Elder Mu seemed unwilling to get involved any further. He glared coldly at Li Chen and said, “Kid! Whoever you are, if something happens to my granddaughter, I will make you pay!”

“Mu Si, arrest this insolent brat!” Elder Mu ordered in a deep voice and promptly walked into the room.

Seeing this, Elder Mu shook his head and slowly followed. In his view, after Li Chen’s meddling, there was likely no hope left for Mu Wuyi.

Mu Si hesitantly approached Li Chen. He knew he was no match for Li Chen but couldn’t defy Elder Mu’s command.

Just as Mu Si was in a dilemma, a cry of joy from Elder Mu came from inside the room, “Wuyi! You’ve woken up! Wonderful! Wuyi, how are you?”

Gui Jiang and Mu Si exchanged glances and immediately ran into the room, leaving Li Chen alone in the corridor.

Li Chen looked back at the door of Mu Wuyi’s room, shook his head, and walked away.

The methods of immortals are beyond the imagination of these foolish mortals!

However, in the middle of the night, Li Chen did gain something. After suppressing the poison within Mu Wuyi, he took the opportunity to cultivate for a little while.

With the aid of the Spirit Gathering Formation and the Spirit Stone Bed, in this short period, Li Chen’s cultivation had advanced further, reaching the peak of the Light Force Stage, only a step away from the Dark Force Stage!

Meanwhile, inside Mu Wuyi’s room, Elder Mu, holding Mu Wuyi’s hand, had moist eyes.

For the past year, he had been heartbroken over this unfortunate granddaughter. Now that Mu Wuyi had truly woken up and even regained consciousness, how could he not be overjoyed?

“Grandpa…don’t worry…I’m alright now,” Mu Wuyi’s voice was still a bit weak, her tender voice evoking pity.

“A miracle! Truly a miracle! To be infested with the Three Corpses Gu for a year, even having it erupt once, and to actually wake up…” Elder Mu whispered in astonishment. If it had been him, he would have had little confidence in even preserving Mu Wuyi’s life, let alone waking her up.

“Impossible! The Three Corpses Gu had already erupted, how could it have been suppressed? Not to mention, bringing someone back to consciousness! Unless the person who had set the Gu was present… Yes! Perhaps that kid was the one who had set the Gu!” Gui Jiang had slapped his hand in sudden realization, only to have been shocked by his own conjecture.

“Foolish!” E Lai had berated, “Wuyi’s poison Gu is clearly still present. Poison masters only plant and dispel poison. Have you ever heard of someone calming an erupted poison Gu?”

Mu Lao had been awakened by their conversation and had hastily spoken to Gui Jiang, “Master Gui, could you please help look after Wuyi here? I need to personally thank this gentleman!”

With that, Mu Lao had quickly walked out of the room. The Elder Mu and Mu Si had also hurriedly followed, leaving only Gui Jiang and Mu Wuyi in the room.

At this moment, Gui Jiang’s face had turned dark as water. He had felt like a fool, not only having lost face due to Li Chen, but also seeing his year’s worth of efforts go down the drain!

One must know, to latch onto the influential Mu Lao, Gui Jiang had captured dozens of living people for experimentation over the past year, all to solve the Three Corpses Gu mystery!

Even more, to ensure the rigor of the experiments, the individuals Gui Jiang had chosen were all young women about the same age as Mu Wuyi!

However, due to Li Chen, Gui Jiang had not been able to accomplish anything that night! How could he accept this?

Fortunately, Mu Wuyi’s condition had stabilized. Gui Jiang had known his opportunity had come.

After hesitating for a moment, Gui Jiang had spoken to Mu Wuyi, “Miss Mu, since the Three Corpses Gu within you had been temporarily suppressed, how about I perform the Exorcism Technique to completely remove this poison Gu?”

Having said that, without waiting for Mu Wuyi’s response, Gui Jiang had already reached out and grasped at the empty air towards her.

In an instant, strands of dark energy had emanated from Mu Wuyi’s body!

Accompanying the dark energy had come gusts of eerie, wailing winds!

Lying on the bed, Mu Wuyi had shown a face of agony, and her body had also started to twist…

“Miss Mu, bear with it! It will be over soon!” Gui Jiang had gritted his teeth and reassured, his face full of confidence.

Gui Jiang, a talent in his own right, had discovered a method to dispel the Three Corpse Gu after numerous experiments.

On his last test subject, this method had been repeatedly successful after being tried over a dozen times, hence Gui Jiang had become very proficient in dispelling the Gu.

For this moment, Gui Jiang had waited too long, too long! A trace of madness had flashed across his eyes.

However, at this very moment, the dark energy emerging from Mu Wuyi had suddenly turned white. If one looked closely, one could even see glimmers of golden light mixed in.

Seeing this, Gui Jiang had been stunned. The poison he had drawn was black, how could white energy appear? This defied science!

Gui Jiang had had no idea that the white mist he had drawn out from Mu Wuyi’s body was, in fact, the condensed spiritual power that Li Chen had left behind in order to suppress Mu Wuyi’s Three Corpses Gu.
