The Miracle Doctor’s Two-Faced Toddler

858 Little Gu Showing Its Might

Sikong Changfeng could not bear it and looked away. Even though he had expected this, at this point, he still felt an indescribable pain in his heart.

He recalled the first time he came to the Nether Mountain to see the Ten Thousand Gu King. At that time, his mother had not long passed away and his father had married a second wife. He could vaguely feel that he was a child in the family who was not valued highly. He had accidentally entered the secret passageway of the Nether Mountain.

Old Ancestor Sikong did not care if the person who trespassed into the Nether Mountain was a disciple of the Sikong family or his grandnephew. He immediately wanted to start a massacre. It was the Ten Thousand Gu King who fell into his hands.

At that time, the Ten Thousand Gu King also obediently curled up into a ball like now.

Perhaps he had been chosen by the Ten Thousand Gu King to become its keeper, he had the qualifications to enter the Nether Mountain.

This gave him a place in the Sikong family as a young master who was neither favored nor protected by his maternal family. Perhaps his father had wanted him to leave the Sikong Manor more than once, but he did not dare to really touch him, the only person who could enter and leave the Chaoyang Hall freely.

All these years, on the surface, he was the one raising the Ten Thousand Gu King, but wasn’t it also the Ten Thousand Gu King protecting him?

Not to mention that Sikong Changfeng couldn’t bear to see it die, even Yu Wan was the same.

It was always said that the human heart was made of flesh, but sometimes, humans were not as loyal as a worm.

“Are you stupid… Don’t you know how to escape? We’re injured and pregnant. Who can defeat you?” Yu Wan felt like her throat was blocked as she watched it sacrifice its life for her great-grandfather without hesitation.

The Ten Thousand Gu King was still in meditation.

However, it was unknown if it was Yu Wan and Sikong Changfeng’s imagination, but the Ten Thousand Gu King was quieter than any other day.

Perhaps it had been waiting for its mission for a long time. It had never thought of escaping.

Clack!

Little Gu scrambled and fell onto the steps.

The Old Gu had always brought it around every time. This time, it was left behind.

Little Gu chased after it, but it could not catch up no matter what. It fell into the quagmire, fell into the crack in the ground, and was almost eaten by a pheasant!

However, it tenaciously survived!

It was here to look for the Old Gu!!!

Little Gu panted as it climbed up Yu Wan’s skirt and ran towards the Ten Thousand Gu King.

The Ten Thousand Gu King moved its pressure and shook Little Gu down.

Little Gu fell to the ground with a thud. It was stunned for a few seconds before continuing to climb onto Yu Wan.

The Ten Thousand Gu King “beat” it to the ground again.

Little Gu also got up again.

After crawling countless times, it fell until it lost consciousness. It raised its little head aggrievedly and looked at the meditating Ten Thousand Gu King with tears in its eyes.

Yu Wan finally could not bear to attack the Ten Thousand Gu King. The Ten Thousand Gu King flew down and silently crawled towards the pill furnace.

Little Gu did not understand what the Ten Thousand Gu King was going to do, but it instinctively felt that it was not a good thing. It jumped over and hugged one of its large insect feet with all its claws, firmly holding it back!

Don’t go!

Don’t go, don’t go, don’t go!

The Ten Thousand Gu King crawled under the pill furnace and waved Llittle Gu away.

Little Gu rolled to the corner of the wall. Its head hurt from hitting the wall. It had tried to pull the Ten Thousand Gu King off the hot pill furnace countless times. If it couldn’t pull it off, it would hit it.

The young Gu’s small body erupted with unimaginable power, actually knocking the rock-steady Ten Thousand Gu King off the pill furnace.

… The price was that one of its little claws broke.

The Ten Thousand Gu King did not even look at it. It only silently turned around and continued to climb towards the pill furnace.

Little Gu dragged its broken little claw and continued to bump into it, but it was suppressed by the Ten Thousand Gu King’s pressure.

Watching the Ten Thousand Gu King fall into the pill furnace, Little Gu cried!

Bang!

Yu Wan smashed the pill furnace with a stool! She panted and said, “No one is allowed to die! I… I’ll think of another way!”

Sikong Changfeng clenched his fists and said with reddened eyes, “There’s no other way. Either the ancestor or the Ten Thousand Gu King can live.”

“Who said there’s no other way?”

A dignified and familiar voice sounded in the courtyard.

Yu Wan and Sikong Changfeng turned around at the same time and saw Master Sikong in navy blue brocade clothes walking calmly with one hand behind his back.

“Father?” Sikong Changfeng was stunned.

Yu Wan touched her face guiltily and realized that she had already pasted her appearance back. She was no longer his daughter-in-law, the “Saintess of the Nether Capital”. She was instantly relieved.

“Master Sikong,” she greeted.

“Why are you here?” Sikong Changfeng walked forward.

Master Sikong said, “Such a big thing happened in the Nether Mountain, how can I not come and take a look? I’m the head of the Sikong Family after all. It’s my duty to protect the Nether Mountain.”

The truth was that he did not feel the ancestor’s aura all night. He suspected that the ancestor was injured, so he had the guts to enter the Nether Mountain. Of course, he did not have any ill intentions towards the ancestor. On the contrary, he hoped more than anyone that this stabilizing pillar of the Sikong family could live for a long time.

“You are…” Master Sikong looked at Yu Wan in the room. Was it an illusion? Why did he feel that this girl was familiar?

Sikong Changfeng was worried that his father would recognize Yu Wan, so he stood in front of her and said with a righteous expression, “She’s the descendant of the Ancestor. She’s from my generation. Her name is Ah Wan.”

Master Sikong sized up Yu Wan from head to toe. “Lan…”

He stopped in time.

Yu Wan understood that what he didn’t finish was Saintess Lan Yi.

Yu Wan nodded. “Master Sikong.”

Master Sikong was not stupid. He could guess the story just by looking at this face. However, now was not the time to sort this out. Although he did not know how seriously the ancestor was injured, it seemed that there was no other way when it came to the point where he had no choice but to sacrifice the Ten Thousand Gu King.

Seeing that his father did not ask about the ancestor’s situation, Sikong Changfeng did not specially explain. He only used the topic from before to say, “Father, when you entered, you said that there were other ways to save the ancestor? What is it?”

“Ten Thousand Gu King,” Master Sikong said.

Do you need to say that? Yu Wan looked at him in surprise.

He raised his hand indifferently and said, “Let me finish speaking first. I’m not referring to the Ancestor’s Ten Thousand Gu King, nor is it that little one, but…”

At this point, he paused and a complicated expression flashed across his face. However, he finally made a decision and said, “The Sang family’s Ten Thousand Gu King.”

“The Sang family?” Sikong Changfeng was stunned. The Sang family was Madam Sikong’s maternal family and was also a family second only to the Sikong family in the Nether Capital. However, he had never heard of the Sang family having the Ten Thousand Gu King.

Master Sikong cleared his throat and said in embarrassment, “Your mother drank too much and accidentally let it slip.”

This mother was naturally not Sikong Changfeng’s biological mother, but his stepmother.

Master Sikong said, “The Sang Family’s Ten Thousand Gu King is different from the Ancestor’s Gu King. The Ancestor’s Gu King feeds on Gu worms, but the Sang Family feeds on human blood. It’s an extremely sinister thing. If you want to obtain it, I’m afraid you have to be careful.”

It sounded the same at first, but Sikong Changfeng frowned at the last sentence. “Father, you mean… you don’t plan to come forward and ask the Sang family for the Gu worm?”

Master Sikong sighed helplessly. “The Sang family won’t admit that they raised such a strange thing at all. How can I get it if I go and ask for it?”

Sikong Changfeng smiled bitterly. “At the end of the day, Father just can’t bear to make things difficult for Madam. Father really dotes on Madam. Since Father and Madam are so loyal, why did you marry my mother back then?”

“You… you child…” Master Sikong blushed and changed the topic.” Is this the time to argue about this? Aren’t you afraid that the ancestor’s life will be in danger for another day?”

It was as if Great-Grandpa still had many days. Only Yu Wan understood that he probably wouldn’t even be able to survive tomorrow.

Yu Wan looked at Master Sikong and probed, “It belongs to the Sang family after all…”

Master Sikong waved his hand. “There’s no need to test my attitude. It’s just an evil thing. It’s fine to get rid of it. I’m worried that you won’t be able to obtain it. Don’t lose your lives before you get the Gu.”

Yu Wan said indifferently, “We’ll think of a way to catch the Gu ourselves. May I ask where the Gu King is raised in the Sang family?”

Master Sikong shook his head. “I’m not sure either. The only thing I can help you with is to bring you into the Sang family. As for after you enter, it’s all up to you. However, you have to promise me that once you’re caught, you can’t have anything to do with the Sikong family!”

Sikong Changfeng said, “Father!”

Master Sikong looked at him and said firmly, “As for you, you’re not allowed to go!”

…

Yu Wan returned to her room and told Yan Jiuchao about Master Sikong’s arrival.

Yan Jiuchao said without thinking, “Then let’s go to the Sang family.”

As he spoke, he looked at the bright moon outside the window. “But we only have twenty-four hours. Tomorrow, the night of the full moon will be the time when the backlash of the Longevity Technique is the strongest. At that time, if we haven’t obtained the Sang family’s Gu King… we can only sacrifice the Ten Thousand Gu King.”
