Gongsun Yue quickly waved her hands and denied, "No, no, I'm just curious."

Gu Sheng left Shuiling Pavilion and walked on the winding mountain path. There was mist all around, and occasionally a few bird calls could be heard.

As he was walking, he ran into Taoist Xiushan.

Taoist Xiushan said with a smile: "Gu Sheng, the Holy Lord allows you to practice in the Divine Wind and Thunder Mountain for half a month. I will take you there now."

Gu Sheng said, "Thank you, Taoist Xiushan, but I want to go to Tianshan Residence first to see my master's wife and sister. I haven't seen them for a long time and I miss them very much."

Taoist Xiushan nodded and said, "Okay, then you go first, I'll wait for you here."

Gu Sheng said gratefully: "Then I'll trouble Taoist Xiushan." Then he walked quickly towards Tianshanju.

Gu Sheng traveled quickly all the way and arrived at Tianshanju.

As soon as he entered Tianshan Residence, he could not wait to sense his sister's breath. Soon, he caught the familiar breath, but this breath made his heart tighten. His sister's breath was weak and disordered, as if she was suffering from great pain.

Gu Sheng followed the direction of the breath and quickly arrived outside his sister's boudoir.

He gently pushed the door open and saw his sister sitting on the bed meditating. Her body was shaking constantly, her face was black, and black, sticky blood was flowing out of her seven orifices.

"Yu'er!" Gu Sheng roared and rushed to the bedside. With trembling hands, he gently held up his sister's face and wiped away the blood that kept flowing out.

"Yu'er, what's wrong with you? Wake up, your brother is here!"

Gu Yu opened her eyes with great effort, and saw her brother's familiar face. Surprise appeared in her eyes, but the pain overwhelmed her again. She opened her mouth weakly and squeezed out the word "pain".

Gu Sheng suppressed his inner grief, injected his spiritual power into his sister's body, and examined her carefully.

After a moment, his eyes turned cold, his voice was deep and full of murderous intent: "It's not that he has gone astray from practicing martial arts, it's that he has been poisoned! Who on earth dared to do such a cruel thing to Yu'er!"

Gu Sheng knew that time was running out, so he quickly sat cross-legged on the edge of the bed and practiced the Nine Revolutions of the Universe.

As he recited the incantation, a powerful devouring force emanated from his body and rushed towards the poison in Gu Yu's body.

He clenched his teeth, beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, and there was only one thought in his mind: "Yu'er, brother will definitely save you, no matter what the cost!"

The toxins were absorbed into Gu Sheng's body bit by bit. Gu Yu's expression seemed to ease a little, but Gu Sheng clearly felt that these toxins were far more troublesome than he had imagined.

Every time a strand of poison entered his body, it was like countless needles piercing his body, causing excruciating pain. But he did not flinch at all, instead he increased his spiritual power output, fighting the erosion of the poison with all his strength.

"Brother..." Gu Yu groaned in pain, his voice becoming weaker and weaker. He closed his eyes and fell into a coma.

Gu Sheng looked at his sister with heartache, reaching out to gently stroke her hair. His action was full of doting, but deep in his eyes there was burning rage.

He swore in his heart: "Yu'er, sleep well. When I save you, I will make the person who poisoned you pay a heavy price!"

A quarter of an hour seemed extremely long. Gu Sheng successfully absorbed all the toxins in his sister's body into his own.

He gently placed his sister on the bed and covered her with a blanket. He also sat down beside the bed, preparing to use his internal energy to force out the poison.

Gu Sheng closed his eyes and used all his strength to circulate his spiritual power, trying to force the toxins out of his body. But as soon as he started to use his strength, he noticed something strange.

After these toxins entered his body, they attached themselves tightly to his internal organs and moved regularly towards his heart.

The more he practiced his skills, the tighter the poison stuck and the more intense the pain became.

"This poison... is not right!" Gu Sheng's back was soaked with cold sweat. He remembered a kind of poison he had seen in ancient books, which was specifically targeted at body cultivators. The stronger the body, the more terrible the power of this poison.

A chill ran through his heart. Could it be that this poison was a trap set specifically for him?

Gu Sheng endured the severe pain and continued to use his energy to force out the poison. But no matter how hard he tried, the poison not only did not get out, but it went deeper and deeper. The severe pain from his heart made it almost impossible for him to breathe. His face became paler and paler, and his body began to tremble slightly.

"No, this is not a solution." In his current condition, he could no longer dissolve the poison by himself. He thought of the elders in his clan, perhaps they could save him.

Gu Shengqiang propped himself up, stood up, and staggered towards the door.

But before he reached the door, he felt a sharp pain in his heart, his vision went dark, and he fell forward uncontrollably.

After an unknown amount of time, Gu Sheng opened his eyes. What he saw was a sea of ​​blood. He subconsciously raised his hand to wipe his face. His hands were covered in blood, and blood was constantly flowing from all his orifices. He looked even more miserable than when his sister was poisoned.

"Second Elder...it must be you!" Gu Sheng guessed the truth of the matter.

The Second Elder had always been dissatisfied with him and his sister. This time he must have known that he would come to save his sister, so he planted this strange poison in his sister's body to lure him into the trap and put him to death.

"Ah!" Gu Sheng roared angrily. He frantically used his mental skills to try to force the toxins out of his body. But the toxins had merged with his body and could not be separated at all. They were also accelerating towards his heart.

A man's laughter came from outside the door. The laughter was sharp and piercing, full of ridicule and complacency.

Gu Sheng's rage grew even stronger, but at this moment he had no time to pay attention to the person outside the door. The severe pain in his body almost made him lose the ability to think.

His will began to blur and his body trembled uncontrollably. He struggled to stand up again and again, but fell heavily to the ground again and again.

"I can't die... I have survived so many desperate situations on the Holy Road, how can I die here!" Gu Sheng's heart was filled with unwillingness. He endured the severe pain and tried hard to think of a way to resolve the dilemma.

Gu Sheng felt a faint light deep inside his body. It was the light of the Taiji Hunyuan Heavenly Book. He also felt the aura of the mysterious woman sleeping in the Heavenly Book fluctuate.

Gu Sheng suddenly had an idea in his mind, remembering that he had used his mental method to refine the energy of the wild tree. Perhaps, this mental method could also refine this poison!

At this critical moment of life and death, Gu Sheng had no other choice. He gritted his teeth, endured the severe pain that almost overwhelmed him, and activated the Nine Dragons Universe Technique.

As he recited the incantation, a powerful devouring force surged out of his body and rushed towards the toxins.

Gu Sheng endured the pain in his body and looked inside. He stared at the devouring force, watching it approach the poison little by little. Success or failure depended on this one move. His fate and the safety of his sister depended on this one move.

Gu Sheng only felt a pain on his lips, and a salty and fishy taste spread in his mouth. The piercing pain penetrated deep into his consciousness, and finally brought him back to clarity for a moment.

His eyes were full of bloodshot, staring straight at the raging poison in his body, his teeth clenched, and he had already made a desperate decision in his heart - to use the Nine Dragons Qiankun Jue to devour this terrible toxin that was specifically targeted at body cultivators. This toxin was so strange that Gu Sheng groaned in his heart. His proud holy body became an absolute disadvantage at this time. The stronger the body, the more powerful the poison.

His body had long been weak, but a force that shook the world suddenly burst out from his body. That astonishing devouring power launched the most violent attack on the strange poison in his body.

Gu Sheng felt like every cell in his body was roaring and struggling.

If he failed this time, the terrible poison would quickly take over his heart, and by then, even if he had a holy body, he would be helpless. The body was in chaos and tragedy, and the fight between life and death was going on silently.

Fortunately, the devouring power of the Nine Dragons Qiankun Jue has a natural inhibitory effect on this evil poison. The poison trembles in fear before this power.

Gu Shengqiang held up his heavy eyelids, excitedly watching the two collide with each other, his heart full of hope. However, his consciousness became increasingly blurred, his eyes went dark, and he passed out.

After an unknown amount of time, Gu Sheng's consciousness seemed to be floating in a chaotic fog.
Faintly, he heard the sound of rain. The cool rain gently hit his body, bringing a long-lost coolness.

A familiar voice with a crying tone came into my ears: "Brother, wake up, don't scare me..." It was the call of my sister Gu Yu!

Gu Sheng struggled to open his heavy eyelids, and what he saw was his sister's face. Gu Yu was hugging him tightly, crying.

Gu Sheng raised his hand and gently touched his sister's face, feeling the real touch. His heart was filled with gratitude for surviving the disaster and being alive.

Gu Sheng endured the weakness of his body and looked inside. His internal organs had been corroded by toxins and were riddled with holes. When he saw that his sister was safe and sound, he finally let go of his worries.

He opened his mouth slightly and asked in a hoarse voice: "Yu'er, do you still remember how we were poisoned?"

Gu Yu sobbed and said, "Brother, I felt very uncomfortable at the time. When I was practicing, I felt a sharp pain and passed out. When I woke up, I saw you lying here unconscious."

Gu Sheng's heart sank. He was sure that the poison was meant for him. The person who poisoned him must have been extremely cautious and left no evidence.

He looked at his sister and said softly, "Yu'er, go out and help me protect the law first. I need to practice and recover."

Gu Yu quickly wiped her tears, nodded, turned and walked out of the room.

Gu Sheng endured the discomfort in his body and used all his strength to practice the mental method. As the mental method was practiced, a warm current flowed through his body, and his body was recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Just as Gu Sheng was immersed in his cultivation, he sensed the presence of an uninvited guest approaching Tianshanju.

He opened his eyes and looked through the window. It was the two men who had left earlier. They were walking towards him, talking and laughing.

One of the men had sharp eyes and spotted Gu Yu standing in the yard at a glance. He said to his companion beside him, "Hey, look over there, that girl is really pretty. Let's go over and take a look."

The other man smiled and nodded, and the two men quickened their pace.

Their cultivation was quite high, and in their opinion, no one in Tianshan Residence could defeat them. They had the opportunity to kill Gu Sheng before, but they were afraid of exposing themselves, so they did not do it.

Du Zhixin and Shou Xiangwen had lewd smiles on their faces and approached Tianshanju with light steps. Their laughter sounded particularly harsh in the silent night.

Gu Yu was outside the boudoir, looking anxious and pacing non-stop.

Gu Sheng's breath disappeared, which made her heart hang in the air, and all kinds of bad thoughts kept circling in her mind.

She murmured to herself: "Brother Gu, you must not get into trouble."

Du Zhixin and Shou Xiangwen appeared in Gu Yu's sight.

Du Zhixin teased, "My little beauty, is that Gu Sheng dead?"

Gu Yu looked at them warily and asked loudly, "Who are you? What are you doing here?"

Shou Xiangwen laughed, and that laugh was full of mockery: "Little girl, stop pretending to be confused, and hand over Gu Sheng quickly."

A powerful aura was released from the two of them, and spiritual energy surged around them, forming streams of air that were visible to the naked eye.

Gu Yu only felt an invisible pressure coming towards her, making it almost impossible for her to breathe, and a feeling of despair surged in her heart.

But she still pretended to be calm and said loudly: "Don't mess around, our elders here will not let you go!"

Du Zhixin snorted disdainfully: "Elder? We are also the elders' people, what are we afraid of!"

Shou Xiangwen laughed even more arrogantly: "We have already sealed off your master's wife's room with an isolation formation. Today, you can't get any help from heaven or earth!"

Gu Yu was pushed into a corner by the two men step by step, with no way to retreat.

Shou Xiangwen stretched out his hand, grabbed Gu Yu's neck, and asked viciously: "Tell me quickly, where is Gu Sheng's body?"

Gu Yu struggled, his voice trembling: "Brother Gu...he is not dead..."

When Shou Xiangwen heard this, a look of disbelief appeared on his face and he raised his hand to hit him.

Du Zhixin stretched out his hand to stop him: "Don't be impatient, it would be a pity to hurt such a beautiful woman."

Du Zhixin stared at Gu Yu's beauty and had evil thoughts in his mind.

Shou Xiangwen turned his head to look at the boudoir, muttering, "There must be a secret in this room. Maybe Gu Sheng's body is in there, or there is some treasure." As he said that, Du Zhixin prepared to push open the door to check.

Just as Du Zhixin's hand was about to touch the door, Gu Yu screamed from behind him. He turned around and saw Shou Xiangwen had already started tearing Gu Yu's clothes.

Du Zhixin shook his head helplessly, thinking that Shou Xiangwen was really impatient, and turned and walked into the room.

The room was filled with a faint fragrance. Du Zhixin glanced around and found that there was no one inside. He carefully felt that there was still the breath of a cultivator in the air.

He thought to himself: "Could it be that Gu Sheng is really still alive?" But it was too late.

Gu Sheng appeared outside the door without knowing when, dragging the dying Shou Xiangwen in his hands. Shou Xiangwen's face was pale, his breath was weak, and he was obviously seriously injured. (End of this chapter)
