Chapter 232: The Sickly Little Sly Jiang

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
She had just threatened his disciple, and his disciple’s Gu worm was sick in the blink of an eye. How could there be such a coincidence in the world? She seriously suspected that this sinister woman had complained in front of the Gu Master, so the Gu Master wanted to take her blood to avenge his precious disciple.

Yu Wan looked at the Gu Master suspiciously and also at the Gu Lady behind him. She asked, “How much blood do you need?”

“Not much, one bowl.” The Gu Master took out a large bowl.

Yu Wan : “…”

In the room, Shangguan Yan’s heart was in chaos. The Gu Master had gone to the kitchen to look for food after saying that. He had asked them to consider whether they should use Yu Wan’s blood to save Yan Jiuchao.

She was Yan Jiuchao’s biological mother. Of course, she hoped to save her son’s life at all costs. If she wanted her blood, she would not hesitate to drain it, let alone a bowl. But she could not ask everyone to treat her son like her.

Xiao Zhenting walked over.

Shangguan Yan asked in a low voice, “Is Miss Yu unwilling?”

Xiao Zhenting said, “She didn’t say that.”

Shangguan Yan’s eyes lit up. “Then…”

“We can’t do that,” Xiao Zhenting interrupted.

Xiao Zhenting was a rough person and did not know how to beat around the bush. However, it was his first time interrupting Shangguan Yan.

Shangguan Yan looked at him blankly. “Why?”

Xiao Zhenting held her hand, which had become slightly rough from working for the past few days, in his palm and said earnestly, “Because Cong’er don’t want it.”

No man wanted the woman he loved to bleed for him. This was not something a man should do. Besides, Cong’er was their child, and Miss Yu was also someone else’s child. If it were them, would they really be willing to exchange so much blood for Miss Yu’s life?

“Are we just going to watch Cong’er die?” Shangguan Yan choked. “I know I’m selfish! It’s good for me to suffer retribution. I just want to save my son…”

Xiao Zhenting said, “You didn’t do anything wrong. Don’t say that about yourself.”

Without experiencing Shangguan Yan’s despair, how could one understand her current feelings? The wound was in her son’s body, but the pain was in his mother’s heart. Her heart ached as much as Yan Jiuchao had suffered all these years. She was just a weak woman, but she had used her own way to protect her son.

She had married into the Xiao family for Yan Jiuchao’s antidote. How could she really like a boor like him when she had a peerless man like Prince Yan?

All these years, she had been scolded a lot, but she was unwilling to clear her name. She said that she would rather her son hate her than let him feel guilty towards her. This way, even if she died one day, her son would not be sad because he had lost another family member.

Xiao Zhenting said, “I’ll go talk to him again and see if we can use other methods.”

“There’s no other way! She either bleeds or your son could wait for death!” In the kitchen, the Gu Master bit his drumstick and said.

Xiao Zhenting frowned and left.

“Tsk!” The Gu Master snorted in disdain. After finishing the last drumstick in his hand, he threw the bone away and pulled open the cupboard. He found a bowl of cornbread and a plate of smelly fermented bean paste and ate them with relish.

Suddenly, a pair of embroidered shoes crossed the back threshold of the kitchen and slowly walked in.

The Gu Master buried his head in his food and said without looking up, “If you ask me again, I’ll still say the same thing! You have to bleed that girl!”

“Whose blood do you want?”

A gentle voice suddenly sounded in the Gu Master’s ears. The Gu Master shuddered on the spot. This voice was extremely pleasant, but why did it sound so terrifying?

Before the Gu Master could turn around, a slender hand grabbed his throat. The Gu Master’s breathing was choked. His face flushed and the cornbread in his hand fell.

“Say that again. Whose blood did you want?”

The Gu Master desperately tried to slap the hand that was grabbing his throat, but he was easily lifted up. Then, he was smashed onto the cold floor!

The Gu Master felt like his brain had been smashed.

However, the owner of the embroidered shoe did not stop there. Instead, she grabbed his neck again, as if she was holding a little fat cat. Bang! Bang! Bang! He was smashed against the ground. The Gu Master was about to be smashed to death!

The Gu Master wanted to shout for help, but he could not make a sound. He tried to take the Gu on his body, but as soon as he raised his hand, the bottles fell to the ground.

The Gu Master was about to despair. Who was this person? Why did she hit him?!

“Whose blood?” The owner of the embroidered shoe asked.

The Gu Master’s eyes widened as he pointed at the other party’s hand. I can’t speak with you pinching me like this…

The owner of the embroidered shoe let go. He fell to the ground and coughed bitterly.

“Tell me, whose blood are you bleeding?”

“Bleed… bleed that girl’s… Ah—”

Before he could finish his sentence, the Gu Master was beaten up again.

“Again, whose blood did you want to bleed?”

“That… that… that girl… Ah—”

“Ah—”

The Gu Master was beaten until he doubted his life.

“I’ll ask you one last time. Are you still going to bleed her?”

“No… I don’t want her blood anymore… Boohoo…” The Gu Master fell to the ground and cried like a child.” I don’t want it anymore, alright? Boohoo… You Central Plains people are too much of a bully… You’re the ones who want to save people… You’re also the ones who don’t want to save people…”

The Gu Master wailed and kicked around on the ground, feeling extremely aggrieved.

The owner of the embroidered shoe gently clapped her hands and looked at him coldly. “If you dare to vent your anger on behalf of your disciple again…”

“Vent my anger on behalf of my disciple?” The Gu Master’s cries stopped and he asked in confusion, “When did I vent my anger on behalf of my disciple?”

“Didn’t you want to bleed her because she offended your disciple?”

“What?”

The owner of the embroidered shoe, the sickly Little Sly Jiang: “…?” Uh… I think I hit the wrong person…

Little Sly Jiang left dejectedly…

The Gu Master who was beaten up for no reason: “… …!”

The Gu Master was not lying. The Gu Master did not know what happened at the village entrance, as well as the Gu Lady and Yu Wan’s swaddling. The reason why he needed Yu Wan’s blood was because he really needed to nourish the Gu worm. It was also a fact that the Gu worm’s lifespan was not high. As for why, the Gu Master himself did not understand. He had raised Gu worms for so many years, but he had never seen such a strange phenomenon.

How did a Gu Master see that Yu Wan had the blood of extreme yin? This was his specialty and he could not reveal it to outsiders.

However, if an ordinary girl wanted to bleed so much, it was no different from taking her life. The reason why Gu Lady was proud was because she was sure that the Xiao family would not give up on Yan Jiuchao. Yu Wan was dead meat.

In the central room, Xiao Zhenting, Shangguan Yan, and Yu Wan looked at the Gu Master. The Gu Master looked a little sorry. Not only was his face swollen, but one of his molars had also fallen off. Half of his thick hair had been ground off on the ground. He was really miserable.

“Who, who did it?” Shangguan Yan asked in a daze.

Gu Master: I f*cking want to know too! It was dark! I didn’t even see the other party’s face clearly! I only saw a pair of beautiful embroidered shoes with round pearls on them.

The other party did not mention the fifty thousand taels of gold, otherwise, he almost suspected that Xiao Zhenting was cheating.

“Let’s not talk about this anymore!” The Gu Master said angrily. “Are you going to save him or not?”

“Yes.” Yu Wan reached out and rolled up her sleeves. “Do it.”

Xiao Zhenting hesitated. “Miss Yu…”

Yu Wan said, “There’s no need to say anything. This is my own decision.”

Xiao Zhenting: “But…”

The Gu Master said impatiently, “Stop being wishy-washy! Saving him is more important! She might not die if we bleed her so much, but if we don’t bleed her, the person on the bed will really die!”

Gu Lady handed over a knife.

Yu Wan said indifferently, “Wait, I want to use my own.” This woman was vengeful. Who knew if she would tamper with the knives?

Gu Lady looked at the Gu Master and saw him nod. She coldly retracted her knife and did not forget to glare at Yu Wan.

Yu Wan ignored her and took out a disinfected dagger. Shangguan Yan could not bear it and turned her face away.

“Do it,” Yu Wan said.

The Gu Master put on a pair of silver gloves, picked up his dagger, and gestured for Gu Lady to take out her Gu worm.

Gu Lady was not wearing gloves. She took out an emerald jade bottle, removed the cork, and poured a small black Gu worm into the bowl.

“I’ll take a drop of blood from your fingertip first,” the Gu Master said. He pinched Yu Wan’s fingertip and gently cut it, putting a drop of blood into the bowl.

The Gu worm loved blood. When it smelled blood, it would impatiently pounce over, especially with the blood of extreme yin. However, to the Gu Master’s surprise, not only did the Gu worm not pounce over, it even took a small step back.

“Eh?” The Gu Master was puzzled and pinched Yu Wan’s fingertip to drip a drop inside.

This time, the Gu worm exploded. It jumped out with a whoosh, stood up, and ran away with its two legs!

The dumbfounded Gu Master: “…”

Yu Wan : “…”

Everyone: “…”
