CHAPTER 264: CHAPTER 264: LURING THE GU

As soon as Ji Youran said those words, Xie Pan’Er and Xie Si asked anxiously, "Can it be drawn out?"

Without replying, Ji Youran took out a medicine bottle from the medicine box he brought. He opened the stopper and placed it under Xie Si’s nose for him to smell.

Instantly, Xie Si’s complexion changed drastically, and he let out a subconscious groan.

Then, everyone saw Xie Si curl up on the ground, his whole body starting to tremble uncontrollably!

"Brother! What’s wrong? Brother!"

Panicked, Xie Pan’Er cried out, reaching to grab his arm, wanting to help him up from the ground.

Ji Youran stretched out his hand to stop her.

"Don’t move him. This is a medicinal fragrance designed to guide the Gu Insects in his body. I’m using it to determine if the Gu Insects in him and your father are Companion Gu!"

The moment Ji Youran finished speaking, a piercing "AH!" was heard from the other room, followed by a loud THUD.

Then, more agonizing cries of "AAAHHH!" echoed.

Everyone was startled and rushed towards the room from which Xie Wulang’s screams were coming.

"Father! How are you? Father! What’s wrong with you?"

"AH... AHHH..."

"Wulang! Wulang! How are you? Wulang, are you in terrible pain? The wine, where’s the wine? Pan’Er, quickly, bring your father the wine!"

At the doorway, the woman from the Luo family, supporting herself against the wall, walked step by step towards Xie Wulang’s room. Worry and concern were etched all over her face as she spoke words of distress.

"The wine! It’s here! Quick, Father, drink the wine!"

At that moment, Xie Pan’Er’s heart ached terribly, and tears streamed down her face. It was only then she understood that her father drank not because his leg was broken and he had given in to despair, but because of the Gu Insects in his body!

"Father! I’m so sorry, I’m so sorry..." Xie Pan’Er murmured, whispering apologies to her father.

Xie Wulang gulped down the wine, draining the entire gourd before he stopped. With a bitter smile, he glanced at Xie Pan’Er, opened his mouth as if to speak, but ultimately said nothing and closed it again.

"These are Companion Gu, but not the kind from the Nanjiang royal family. To be precise, this type of Gu should be called ’Mother-Child Gu.’ The Mother Gu is in your brother, and the Child Gu is in your father."

"This... can this Gu be drawn out?"

At this moment, Xie Pan’Er couldn’t care about anything else; her only thought was to save her parents’ lives!

"It can!" Ji Youran affirmed, then went to his medicine box and began searching for medicinal herbs, intending to concoct a remedy.

"Wait! Second Brother!"

Just as Ji Youran finished speaking, Ji Youze’s voice came from outside, calling out to stop him.

At the gate of the Xie Mansion, members of the Xie Family stood in a long line. Xie Zian, at the head of the line, craned his neck, peering into the distance.

A carriage approached slowly, escorted by a retinue of some ten guards, five or six maids, and two senior nannies whose attire rivaled that of matrons from wealthy families.

Sweat trickled down Xie Zian’s forehead. It had been many years since the Xie Mansion had hosted such a distinguished guest.

"They’re here, they’re here! Mother, that Old Madam Xie was personally granted a First Grade Mandated Madam title by the late Emperor. Why would she suddenly come to our mansion?"

Old Madam Xie, supported by Nanny Hua, was actually well aware. This Old Madam Ji was probably coming for Xie Pan’Er.

Was she here to support Xie Pan’Er? Or was it for some other reason?

Whatever her purpose, as long as she could prevent Xie Pan’Er from meeting the people from the Fifth Branch, there would still be room to maneuver.
