Gu Qingxue clenched her fists tightly, a murderous intent in her eyes. “No matter what the reason is, the person behind the scenes has harmed my grandmother for twenty years and made her suffer so much. Just this point alone is enough for me to not let her off!”

Thinking about how proud her grandmother was, she had always been the wisest person in everyone’s hearts. In the end, she had fallen to such an end. How sad and miserable it was, even she felt that her grandmother was not worth it!

Her grandmother, who had wasted twenty years of her life, felt that she could not just let it go like this. She would do everything she could to find that person and make him regret it for the rest of his life.

“Qingxue, I wanted to tell you today that if we can’t successfully find the mastermind behind this, the poison in your grandmother’s body will not be cured.” Wen Jiang continued to speak in a serious tone.

Gu Qingxue’s expression froze and she asked in disbelief, “Why is that so?”

“Because the Gu Worm has been in your grandmother’s body for too long. As time goes by, the longer the Gu Worm stays in the body, the more serious the situation will become. These are all very normal situations.” Wen Jiang looked at Gu Qingxue and continued, “If you take out the Gu Worm without permission, it may affect your grandmother negatively. So, for safety’s sake, our top priority now is to find the person who placed the Gu Worm. Only then can we protect your grandmother.

Gu Qingxue had a worried expression on her face when she heard this. She said, “But Master, I don’t know who the person who planted the Gu Worm behind my back is. I have no clue about it.”

“I’ve long guessed that this would be the case. Otherwise, with your personality, you wouldn’t have been able to do nothing for so many years. Qingxue, I can tell from this that you still have a lot to learn. You know too little about Gu Worms, so you don’t know what to do next.” Wen Jiang put down his chopsticks as well. He stared at Gu Qingxue with a serious expression and said, “First of all, I have to tell you that Gu Worms are very insidious in some ways. They have a special characteristic. The closer the person is to them, the better the effect of the Gu Poison.”

Gu Qingxue looked at Wen Jiang thoughtfully. She seemed to understand what he was trying to say, and her expression showed that she understood.

“Master, are you trying to tell me that if we’re blood-related, the effects of the Gu Poison will be better?”

“To sum it up, that’s it. You’ve seen your grandmother’s condition. She’s been under the control of the Gu Poison for so many years. The fact that the Gu Worm could do this is enough to prove that it contains the power of the bloodline. It is very likely that your grandmother was cursed by someone who was related to her by blood. Otherwise, if the other party could maintain the Gu Worm for twenty years, then with his strength, he would have used an even more sinister method to deal with your grandmother.” Wen Jiangs words were straightforward, but everything he said was the truth.

Gu Qingxue nodded, then said after a moment of silence, “I understand what you mean, master. That is to say, the main culprit that I’m looking for is hiding right beside me.”

“Yes, I’ve already narrowed down the scope of the culprit to this extent. Do you have any clues in your heart?” Wen Jiang continued to look at Gu Qingxue with concern..
