"Are you sure this plan is foolproof?"
However, what surprised Ah Man the most was that Gu Changge who had disappeared for several days actually appeared in her courtyard today.
He was sitting under a withered old tree, wearing a white robe that was as clean as the moon. His ink-black hair hung loosely over his shoulders, as if there was a crystalline light flowing through it.
He exuded an otherworldly aura as his slender fingers played with a jade wine cup in his hand.
Gu Changge looked at Ah Man with a thoughtful look in her eyes.
"I dare not say that this plan is foolproof, but I am one hundred percent sure that it can kill my Master."
"Senior can rest assured."
Ah Man was dazed for a moment, not understanding the meaning behind Gu Changge's words, but she still said confidently.
Gu Changge let out a chuckle as he stood up, walking to Ah Man's side.
"This little girl is very confident." He shook his head.
Hearing this, Ah Man's eyes flashed with confusion. Could it be that she had made some mistake?
However, Gu Changge did not explain further, merely saying, "Since it's like this, then act according to your plan, don't disappoint me ah."
Ah Man had a feeling that Gu Changge had seen through something.
All of a sudden, Ah Man lost her confidence, asking in a low voice, "Senior, did I miss something?"
Gu Changge smiled, his gaze fixed on Ah Man as he said, "Since you already know that your Grandfather is the culprit behind your tribe's massacre, why don't you think about how he managed to contact the Barbarian God Sect?"
Hearing this, Ah Man was dazed for a moment before realizing what Huang Xiaolong meant. Cold sweat trickled down her back.
She had indeed forgotten about it, or rather, she had neglected it.
In her opinion, as long as she poisoned her Master to death, leaving no traces behind, the Barbarian God Sect would never be able to trace it back to her.
Moreover, as long as she did not tell anyone else about this matter, no one else would know about it.
However, she had forgotten that her Grandfather was able to contact the Barbarian God Sect in secret, even knowing about the Barbarian God's disappearance.
In that case, his background was definitely not simple.
Therefore, when her Master was poisoned to death, her Grandfather could have used some means to make the Barbarian God Sect suspect her.
Her grandfather was actually the biggest enemy she had to face right now.
"Grandfather wants to borrow the Barbarian God Sect's hand to annihilate our tribe. But why would he do that? "
Ah Man couldn't understand this at all and couldn't understand.
"He didn't want to borrow the Barbarian God Sect's hand to annihilate the tribe behind you, but he wanted to borrow your hand …"
Gu Changge's gaze was slightly pitiful. "We've already come this far. Can't you see?"
"Borrow my hand?"
A 'Man's brows knit together tightly while a wisp of a vicious expression suddenly appeared on her beautiful and exquisite face. "He wants me to live in guilt and pain, and let me understand that the tribe was actually annihilated because of me?"
She could not understand why her grandfather, who used to be so kind and amiable, would do such a cruel thing.
"Because you're a natural born devil, your Grandfather is merely forcing you to walk down this path with no other choice." Gu Changge explained calmly.
"So, he did this just to force me to enter the devil path?"
Ah Man's expression was filled with pain.
The carefree times of her childhood surfaced in her mind once again. Gradually, they overlapped and intertwined with the cruel future that she had seen.
"In this world, one of the greatest taboos is a mistake. I thought you wouldn't make this kind of mistake."
Gu Changge lightly shook his head.
It seems like not everyone could be like him, taking into account all the possibilities and making it watertight.
Then again, Gu Changge could only conclude that Ah Man was still young and needed to grow up.
This mistake wasn't a fatal one.
"Senior, what should I do …?"
Ah Man's expression was filled with pain, ruthlessness and coldness intertwined in the depths of her eyes, like a fierce beast that was about to break out of its cage.
"It's good to have kindness in your heart, but sometimes, it's better to keep it to yourself."
Gu Changge stretched out his hand and placed it on her head, his tone calm.
His gaze descended onto A 'Man's heart. Strands of jet black light were currently gushing out and coiling around like mist. It seemed to carry some sort of terrifying curse that was gradually swallowing up some of the remaining light within A' Man's heart.
"Even if you've seen the future with your own eyes, you still have a trace of fantasy and hope for others …"
"You can't do that."
"Sleep, it'll be fine when you wake up. Forget the beautiful past, those illusions that are like flowers in the mirror and the moon in the water."
In the morning of the next day, sunlight sprinkled in through the window, bringing with it some warmth.
Ah Man's long eyelashes fluttered, and then she opened her eyes. There was a trace of confusion in her expression, as if she hadn't woken up from some kind of illusion or dream.
"Did I fall asleep yesterday?"
Ah Man muttered to herself, noticing that she was already lying on the bed at some unknown time, covered with a blanket.
The warm sunlight sprinkled in from the window was slightly dazzling, causing her to involuntarily narrow her eyes.
"What happened yesterday?"
She felt that her memories had become a little blurry. She only remembered that the senior had said something to her yesterday and told her some things.
As for what exactly it was, she seemed to have forgotten.
She only knew that in a daze, she had fainted because of a splitting headache and was in too much pain. Later on, she was carried back to the room by the senior.
"So, it was senior who covered me with a blanket?"
Ah Man was a little dazed, and then she seemed to have thought of something. She suddenly took out the moon-white outer robe that Gu Changge had thrown to her.
"It's the same as on the blanket. It's senior's aura, making one feel at ease."
Ah Man buried her head in the outer robe and muttered softly.
Seven days later, as Ah Man had expected, her master was poisoned.
After swallowing the pill in surprise, he instantly fell to the ground. Blood flowed out of his seven orifices, and his eyes bulged out. His appearance was incomparably terrifying, like a malicious ghost.
0
The blood vessels under his skin seemed to be about to burst, and black blood continuously spurted out from his mouth.
Ah Man looked coldly from outside the cave, her little face devoid of any emotion.
"How is this possible …"
"How could the pill go wrong?"
The middle-aged man continuously vomited blood, his eyes wide open, full of disbelief.
He crawled on the ground with difficulty, wanting to find the antidote from the bottles at the side.
At this time, Ah Man walked in from outside the cave, looking down at him coldly.
The middle-aged man was like a drowning person who suddenly grabbed the last life-saving straw, and a roar came from the depths of his throat.
"Ah Man … Ah Man, quickly save me …"
"Help me … Help me find the antidote."
"Save you?"
Ah Man just shook her head coldly. This appearance made the middle-aged man panic. It was completely different from the obedient disciple he had seen before.

"Not killing you with my own hands is already being merciful to you."
"I really want to kill you with one sword strike right now, but that would be letting you off too easily. Dying slowly and painfully like this may not be an unsuitable result for you."
Ah Man said softly, but there was no fluctuation of emotion in her eyes.
"You … You …"
The middle-aged man looked terrified, and was filled with extreme fear. He immediately understood.
Why would there be a problem with the pills he refined?
Ah Man had long known that he would make a move against her, it was just that he was too stupid to notice.
"So … so, you … you knew all along."
His voice trembled as he screamed, filled with regret.
However, what he regretted was that Ah Man had discovered his plan ahead of time, not that he had poisoned the pills he refined in the past.
At this time, Ah Man was no longer looking at him, looking outside the cave as if she was waiting for something.
Gu Changge's figure appeared outside the cave, looking calmly at Ah Man. "You've made your choice?"
Ah Man nodded, "I've made my choice. Since this was destined to be unsolvable from the start, why should I worry about it?"
"From the start, I never had a chance to turn the tables."
In fact, she had thought things through in the past few days.
So-called schemes had no chance of winning in the face of absolute power.
Even if she could get rid of her Master and the Barbarian God Sect's hidden danger …
She still couldn't escape the fate of being manipulated by her Grandfather.
Everything was destined from the start.
She was just a fish struggling in the long river of fate.
But no matter how hard she struggled, she would be thrown back to her original fate.
Gu Changge suddenly chuckled, reaching out to stroke her head. "No, who says you don't have a chance to turn the tables?"
"I came to this world to help you turn the tables."
