This caused Master Xia and the others to be completely stunned.
Especially Master Xia, who had once met the Honorable Poison Master. Upon seeing the smile on that gloomy and eerie face, he was so shocked that he could not speak. His mouth hung wide open in astonishment...
"Little girl, I have fulfilled my promise. I will pay a visit to the Xia Family home in half a month's time."
This was what he had promised her half a month ago.
So, he had come to fulfill his promise.
"Gu girl, you..." Master Xia's eyes widened in shock. His gaze swept across Gu Ruoyun's body and landed on the Honorable Poison Master's smiling face. Suddenly, he slapped his thigh and exclaimed in sudden realization, "That's right, aside from the Honorable Poison Master, who else could have raised such a little monster? Little girl, are you the Honorable Poison Master's disciple? "
He had long suspected that this little girl was connected to one of the Three Great Authorities. Otherwise, she could not possibly be such a genius. Even though the Honorable Poison Master was not a member of the Three Great Authorities, he was still a powerful Martial Honor. He certainly had the power to raise such a genius like her.
The Honorable Poison Master laughed sinisterly, "Indeed, I and the Spirit Sect had taken a liking to this little girl. Unfortunately, the little girl did not take a liking to us so she rejected our request to take her in as a disciple."
Boom!
A bolt of lightning struck down from the sky, sending everyone into a daze.
What did the Honorable Poison Master just say? He and the Spirit Sect's Martial Honor had taken a liking to this little girl at the same time but she had rejected them? Heavens, to be able to reject the request of two Martial Honors to take her in as a disciple, how much courage does one need to have?
"Honorable Poison Master, you've come just in time." Gu Ruoyun smiled as she rose to her feet, "I would like you to help me identify someone."
"Oh?"
The Honorable Poison Master raised an eyebrow and tried his best to sound friendly, "May I know who you would like me to identify?"
Xia Qi's face turned deathly white when he saw the Honorable Poison Master and Gu Ruoyun conversing so familiarly with each other. Now, as he stared at the young girl with a faint smile on her face, he could not help but stumble a few steps back and gulped.
"Honorable Poison Master, help me take a look. Is this the person to whom you had given the parasite poison and the Spirit Swallowing Herb?"
The smile on Gu Ruoyun's lips deepened but the smile did not reach her eyes.
There was only coldness in her eyes.
The Honorable Poison Master's gaze followed her line of sight and slowly shifted to Xia Qi's face. He frowned slightly and fell silent. After a while, he seemed to remember something and nodded.
"Yes, he did save me when I was seriously injured. In order to repay him, I gave him the Gu Dragon and the Spirit Devouring Gu. Although many years have passed, his general outline has not changed, so I can still recognize him."
Like a bolt from the blue, the elders present could not believe their ears.
After all, in their eyes, Xia Qi had always been a cultured and refined man who respected his brother and loved his nephew. Why would he do such a thing? Furthermore, the reason why the Young Master had been unable to cultivate for so many years was because of him.
The Spirit Devouring Gu would devour a person's life force, causing the person's body to become weak and unable to cultivate until death.
Even though they did not know how their Young Master's body had recovered, the things that Xia Qi had done were indeed infuriating.
"Xia Qi, it's you!"
Boom!
Master Xia was seething with anger. He grabbed Xia Qi by the lapels of his robes and fiercely threw him out of the room. Xia Qi's body slammed against the door railing with a loud bang and spat out a mouthful of blood. His eyes were filled with malevolence as he spat, "You're lying! You and Gu Ruoyun are acquaintances, you must have helped her lie to obtain the Xia Family! Father, how could you believe the nonsense of these people and frame me? Your actions will surely disappoint the ancestors of the Xia Family! "
