"Whose thod is the Xuanming Gu within her body?"
Ye Xuan calmly gazed at Qiao Donghai.
Qiao Donghai’s expression changed abruptly: "Xuanming Gu!?"
Ye Xuan squinted at Qiao Donghai without speaking.
Qiao Donghai turned pale, sensing a hint of coldness in Ye Xuan’s eyes, he hurriedly said, "Young Master Ye, this matter is unknown to this old man. Please give so ti, and I will investigate imdiately!"
Ye Xuan suddenly smiled slightly, patting Qiao Donghai’s shoulder, and said, "This matter seems unrelated to you. Just investigate it properly. If you can’t, I’ll have my people help you investigate."
Qiao Donghai felt his nerves tense, as if standing in the midst of towering waves, with a constant illusion of imminent destruction.
Cold sweat unconsciously appeared on Qiao Donghai’s forehead, he said in a solemn tone, "Rest assured, Young Master Ye, this old man will surely give you and young Xinyu an explanation!"
Ye Xuan nodded slightly: "Go then."
Qiao Donghai instinctively bowed and retreated.
This elder of the Southern Dipper Ancient Country’s imperial family, who was more than just a Great Sage, subconsciously felt awe in front of Ye Xuan.
Perhaps even Qiao Donghai himself hadn’t noticed this.
After Qiao Donghai left, Ye Xuan squinted and muttered softly, "Gu Poison Masters, it’s been many years since I’ve seen one..."
"It seems like this Southern Dipper Ancient Country also has its little secrets."
Ye Xuan’s lips curled slightly.
In the next mont, with a thought, Ye Xuan activated the Void Immortal Body, traversed the void, and returned indoors.
The mother and daughter were now chatting and laughing.
Ye Xuan walked out and said softly, "Good day, Aunt."
Xinyu’s mother now noticed Ye Xuan, scrutinizing him, she looked at Qiao Xinyu and asked in confusion, "Who is this?"
Qiao Xinyu blinked at Ye Xuan, montarily unsure of how to introduce him.
"My na is Ye Xuan, a good friend of Xinyu’s."
Ye Xuan said proactively.
Qiao Xinyu couldn’t help but feel grateful, feeling both surprised and honored.
To outsiders, she was the Sect Leader of the Immortal Crossing Sect and a princess of the Southern Dipper Ancient Country, but she knew she was still part of the Black Blade Sect.
And who was Emperor Ye?
Even Nangong Bai, the head of the Black Blade Sect, was a subordinate in front of him.
He was the sole leader of the thirteen factions within the Revenge Lineage.
He was the Undying Night Emperor, unmatched throughout the ages!
Although these words from Emperor Ye were rely to rescue her from the situation, they still left Qiao Xinyu feeling uneasy, yet with a faint sense of joy and warmth.
"So, you are Xinyu’s friend." Xinyu’s mother said with a smile upon hearing this.
"Oh." Ye Xuan looked at Xinyu’s mother and asked, puzzled, "Aunt, have you not been resting well lately?"
Xinyu’s mother paused for a mont, then said, "To be honest, I haven’t felt well these days, but nothing seems wrong after seeing the imperial physician. It’s odd when you think about it."
Speaking, Xinyu’s mother pointed to her own face, looked at Qiao Xinyu, and asked, "Xinyu, do I look tired?"
Qiao Xinyu examined closely and indeed couldn’t see anything, but she knew since Emperor Ye ntioned it, there must be a deeper aning. Despite her mother not having high cultivation, she was still a cultivator, so it seed improbable she hadn’t rested well. Thus, she nodded, "Mother, you do look a bit tired."
"If Aunt doesn’t mind, why not let have a look." Ye Xuan smiled softly.
"Little Xuan knows dical skills too?" Xinyu’s mother exclaid in surprise.
"I know a little bit." Ye Xuan smiled slightly.
"Rest assured, mother, Ye... Ye Xuan’s alchemy skills surpass even the chief alchemist of the Southern Dipper Ancient Country." Qiao Xinyu almost let slip the title of Emperor Ye, caught herself in ti, calling Ye Xuan’s na for the first ti made her nervous.
"He truly is a young hero." Xinyu’s mother couldn’t help but exclaim, "Then please, Little Xuan."
"Not at all." Ye Xuan said, as he stepped forward, placing his hand on Xinyu’s mother’s pulse.
Imdiately, the Taichu Hongng Primordial Dao Technique circulated, introducing a pure stream of Taichu Hongng Primordial Dao Power into Xinyu’s mother’s body along her pulse.
At this mont, a cluster of black mist lay hidden within Xinyu’s mother’s Sea of Consciousness.
The black mist occasionally flared with a bright light.
The black mist gradually enveloped Xinyu’s mother’s Sea of Consciousness, slowly consuming her awareness.
This was why Xinyu’s mother felt so exhausted.
"Tenth Rank Xuanming Gu..."
Upon discovering that scene, Ye Xuan murmured in his heart.
"It seems the person who acted must be of the Gu Emperor Level, an existence whose cultivation is at least in the Great Venerate Realm..."
No wonder even Qiao Donghai and Qiao Xinyu couldn’t detect the Xuanming Gu within Xinyu’s mother. It turned out to be of the tenth rank.
Gu Poison Masters.
This was a profession that was extrely prestigious in the Ancient Era.
As their na suggests, Gu Poison Masters’ prominent elent is Gu.
Gu Poison Masters had their own Lifebound Gu, and their strength was determined by examining their Lifebound Gu.
Although the battle capabilities of Gu Poison Masters themselves might not be strong, their proficiency in the Gu Control Technique was exceedingly troubleso.
Exceedingly sinister and cunning.
Failing to take notice, one could be easily eradicated.
Like Xinyu’s mother, who was infected with Gu without even noticing.
Most likely, she wouldn’t even know what happened until the end of her life.
This was the horror of Gu Poison Masters.
But because in the Ancient Era, Gu Poison Masters ran rampant, wreaking havoc in the Great World, eventually, they were subjected to Heavenly Dao’s retribution and fell into decline.
Nowadays, Gu Poison Masters are extrely rare.
The main reason is largely due to the incidents of those tis, making Gu Poison Masters extrely unpopular now. Once their identity is exposed, they inevitably beco a target for everyone.
"The best way to deal with Gu Poison Masters is either with Gu or with Curses."
Curses.
Also known as Curse Seals.
Nowadays, only a few Daoist lineages and the extrely rare Curse Sealers master Curse Seals.
But one must not forget how Curse Sealers ca to be.
It all stems from Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan’s fingertips moved across Xinyu’s mother’s wrist.
In the blink of an eye, a Curse Seal was ford.
As soon as the Curse Seal ford, it rushed towards Xinyu’s mother’s Sea of Consciousness.
However, at this mont, Xinyu’s mother suddenly withdrew her right hand, looking at Ye Xuan with vigilance.
Even though Ye Xuan was just inscribing a curse seal, to Xinyu’s mother, this action seed extrely frivolous!
But due to Qiao Xinyu standing by, Xinyu’s mother said nothing, rely giving Ye Xuan a warning look.
Ye Xuan knew Xinyu’s mother misunderstood him, but he didn’t say anything.
Next mont, Xinyu’s mother’s body softened.
Qiao Xinyu supported her mother, then solemnly said, "Emperor Ye, what happened?"
Qiao Xinyu naturally witnessed the scene earlier, but she couldn’t believe Emperor Ye was the kind of person to be so frivolous.
Sothing undoubtedly happened!
Ye Xuan squinted slightly and said, "Your mother has been afflicted by a Gu, specifically a tenth rank Xuanming Gu. Just now, it was sealed by my Curse Seal. Next, we wait for your great-grandfather to find out who is behind the act and drag out the Gu Poison Master, then the curse can be lifted."
