The secret guards, including Liu Yi, were all surprised. Only Gu Qingxue, who was looking down from above, coldly took in Gu Lingyue’s struggle.

“That’s impossible! How could your poison have any effect on me?!” The human-face sore on Gu Lingyue’s back let out a scream of disbelief. As it spoke, it started to struggle bitterly, trying hard to get out of Gu Lingyue’s body.

However, the place where the poisonous needle had hit the human face sore was melting at a speed visible to the naked eye. It quickly turned into a pool of foul-smelling blood that slowly flowed down Gu Lingyue’s body.

Gu Lingyue felt a burning pain on her back. She turned her head to look at her shoulder and saw that the face had completely peeled off from her body. It was so painful that she fell to the ground and could not move. “Master, master, please think of a way to save me!”

However, the face’s mouth had already melted into a pool of blood under the strong poison. It glared at Gu Qingxue with a venomous gaze for one last time before completely melting.

After the human-faced sore disappeared, Gu Lingyue was tormented by the poison until she vomited blood. She could clearly feel a sharp pain from her internal organs as if they were being torn apart!

“Gu Lingyue, as long as I don’t give you the chance to hurt me with your legendary Gu Worms, you’re no match for me.” Gu Qingxue looked coldly at Gu Lingyue’s struggling expression. Her gaze was no different from looking at a clown.

Gu Lingyue was extremely angry. She twisted her body on the ground with difficulty and continued to spout nonsense, “Gu Qingxue, cough, cough, cough. You’ve provoked my master, and she won’t let you off. Just wait for my master to return and avenge me…!

“l don’t know if your master will take revenge for you, but I know that you won’t be able to wait for that day.” Gu Qingxue looked down from above, admiring Gu Lingyue’s appearance when she was poisoned.

Gu Qingxue’s words made Gu Lingyue’s eyes fill with despair. She waved her hands weakly, as if she wanted to ask for help. However, the flesh in her mouth had already melted into a pool of blood under the effect of the poison. When she opened her mouth, blood gushed out.

Despair brewed in Gu Lingyue’s eyes. Her body melted until only a pair of eyes remained. She glared at Gu Qingxue with hatred.

A faint stench spread in the air, and it made Liu Yi and the other secret guards frown.

“Miss Gu, the poison you used is really powerful.” Seeing Gu Lingyue die so miserably, Liu Yi could not help but sigh from the bottom of his heart.

Gu Qingxue merely curled her lips into a smile. “Don’t bother about Gu

Lingyue’s corpse. Burn that small building and bring Madam Kou back.”

As Gu Qingxue spoke, she saw a small medicine bottle roll out of Gu Lingyue’s clothes.

Liu Yi quickly came forward and picked up the medicine bottle, handing it to Gu Qingxue.

Gu Qingxue opened the medicine bottle and smelled the faint medicinal fragrance from the bottle. Her eyes couldn’t help but brighten.”This should be the antidote for the Gu poison. With this, I can cure His Royal Highness faster.’

Gu Qingxue had heard before that Gu Masters would carry antidotes on them to prevent themselves from being accidentally injured by the Gu Poison they had developed. However, she did not expect Gu Lingyue to have such a good thing on her.

From the looks of it, their trip was not without any gains..
