"Because I treated her when she was little."


    Gongsun Liang nced at Su Chen and said:


    "I said I had seen her before, that''s when."


    It was also at that time that Gongsun Liang and Lin Ruoxue''s grandfather arranged their marriage.


    "Then why didn''t you extract that Gu?"


    Su Chen hurriedly questioned, surprising him that his old ghost master had treated Lin Ruoxue before.


    "I can usually handle normal Gu, but this Gu is very special, I can only suppress it."


    Gongsun Liang replied.


    Su Chen nodded thoughtfully, as a Ghost Doctor, he had seen Gu before, but the Gu inside Lin Ruoxue, he couldn''t even recognize, let alone cure!


    This alone indicated how special this Gu was!


    He once thought that with his increased cultivation, he could expel it from Lin Ruoxue''s body, but he realized he underestimated it!


    Recently, he tried to help Lin Ruoxue through massages twice, but still failed.


    One reason was Lin Ruoxue''s body couldn''t handle too much True Yuan; another reason was the Gu was too special, it absorbed all the limited True Yuan!


    At that time, he didn''t know it was a Gu.


    "Fortunately, this Gu now has no adverse effects on her body, even bringing some benefits."


    Gongsun Liang continued:


    "But before the Gu awakens, it must be removed, otherwise, it could threaten her life!"


    "That serious?!"


    Su Chen was startled by Gongsun Liang''s words, bing very anxious.


    "Is there no way to remove it?"


    Su Chen hurriedly asked.


    "Of course there is."


    Gongsun Liang nodded and said:


    "The first way is obvious, the one who imnted the Gu."


    "Who imnted this Gu?!"


    His eyes shed with a killing intent, coldly asking.


    This person was truly vicious!


    "An olddy from the Hua Family in Miaojiang."


    Gongsun Liang said indifferently.


    Su Chen silently remembered this information, vowing to ensure that vicious olddy met a dire end!


    Of course, that would happen after ensuring Lin Ruoxue was okay.


    "Besides that, are there any other ways?"


    Su Chen asked again.


    After all, the one who imnted the Gu was waiting for it to awaken, naturally wouldn''t remove it beforehand!


    By then, it would be toote!


    "There is another way, that is the Holy Witch. If the Holy Witch is willing to help, she can also remove it."


    Gongsun Liang took a sip of tea and said:


    "Because every Holy Witch learns the supreme Witchcraft and Gu Techniques."


    "The Holy Witch?"


    Upon hearing this, Su Chen couldn''t help but think of Mu Ling''er.


    Her brother had mentioned she was one of the three candidates for the Holy Witch!


    If Mu Ling''er could be the Holy Witch, asking for her help should not be a problem!


    Thinking of this, Su Chen''s eyes lit up, and he felt a ray of hope igniting in his heart.


    "Kid, if you''re going to Miaojiang, be very careful. It''s a mysterious ce, even your master wouldn''t dare to go easily!"


    Gongsun Liang knew he was bound to go, thus warned him solemnly.


    "Don''t worry!"


    Su Chen nodded in acknowledgment.


    Though he had never been to Miaojiang, he had heard of its dangerous fog, snakes, rats, insects — any of which could take a person''s life!


    "Old ghost, do you know how long until the Gu wakes?"


    Su Chen asked, this question was crucial, indicating how much time he had left.


    "About a year."


    Su Chen felt a bit relieved upon hearing, time was still sufficient.


    However, to be safe, he couldn''t wait until then, the sooner the better.


    If there were no unexpected issues, he nned to go after New Year''s, which was less than a month away.


    He hoped to use this time to further enhance his cultivation, increasing his chances in Miaojiang!


    He swore to himself, no matter what, he would ensure Lin Ruoxue was safe!


    Absolutely!


    Fortunately, the old ghost told him the method, he knew what to do, hence he rxed slightly.


    "Alright, are your questions finished? It''s time for me to examine your cultivation."


    Gongsun Liang stood up and said.


    From the first nce at Su Chen, he knew his dantian had recovered, and his cultivation had advanced further.


    He didn''t need to ask, understanding Su Chen must have practiced the cultivation technique from the sheepskin scroll.


    "Old ghost, wait, onest question!"


    Su Chen pulled on Gongsun Liang and said.


    "Defeat me in a fight, then ask yourst question."


    Saying this, Gongsun Liang walked outside.


    Without choice, Su Chen followed.


    They soon reached an empty ground not far behind, standing opposite each other, Su Chen prepared his defenses.


    Out of nowhere, a big yellow dog appeared, bing the sole audience.


    This scene had yed out many times before, but this time, it was at night.


    With Lin Ruoxue and Xiao Xun around, daytime was inconvenient, so they chose the night.


    Fortunately, the impact on them was minimal.


    Gongsun Liang ced one hand behind his back, then moved swiftly, striking at Su Chen with one palm.


    His speed was unbelievable, in a blink he was right in front of Su Chen!


    True Yuan condensed in his palm, apanied by a gust of wind!


    Su Chen quickly blocked and swept a kick at Gongsun Liang''s lower body.


    Soon, they exchanged more than a dozen moves; although Gongsun Liang used only one hand, he was effortlessly skillful!


    "Bang!"


    Suddenly, Gongsun Liang made a change in his move, pping Su Chen''s shoulder with one palm, causing him to retreat over ten meters before stabilizing!


    Though there was sharp pain in his shoulder, Su Chen knew it would recover in two days of cultivation.


    "Still lost!"


    Su Chen spat irritably, then took out a cigarette and lit it.


    "I''m your master, losing to me is normal."


    Gongsun Liangughed, though inside, he was astonished!


    The cultivation technique from the sheepskin scroll was indeed extraordinary!


    "Old ghost, what''s your current realm and strength exactly?"


    Su Chen couldn''t help but ask.


    "A bit stronger than you."


    Gongsun Liang replied casually.


    "No way!"


    Su Chen pouted.


    He always said that before.


    Now his strength was unparalleledpared to before, yet he still said that!


    "Kid, I must warn you seriously."


    Gongsun Liang suddenly became unusually serious:


    "Regarding the cultivation technique you''re practicing, don''t reveal it to anyone! Remember, anyone!"


    Seeing him rarely that serious, Su Chen nodded solemnly.


    He knew, despite the Nine Yang Divine Technique being iplete, ending at the Meridian Expansion realm.


    But if revealed, it would surely be the target of various factions vying for it!


    See, hadn''t the Judgment Department already set their eyes on it?
