Chapter 29: Chapter 29: Forcing Out the Bloodthirsty Gu Insect_1 Editor: Atlas Studios

Ye Luo spoke indifferently.

"But..."

Nie Yuntian’s eyes held some hesitation, and at this moment, the young man in a suit spoke up, "It’s not right, foster father. This man’s identity is unclear. If we let him stay alone with Wenyu, who knows what he might do to her. Therefore, we absolutely can’t agree to this."

"It doesn’t matter. If you choose to believe, then believe; if you don’t want to, then prepare a coffin for this beautiful lady in advance," Ye Luo said with a look of indifference.

Nie Yuntian’s eyes flickered before he said, "Alright, we can leave, but I hope you won’t do anything that you’ll regret."

"Let’s all go out."

Nie Yuntian said directly to the crowd.

"Can I stay here? I want to stay with my sister," Nie Wenling said at this time, her eyes looking at Ye Luo filled with hope.

"Fine, but you can’t disturb my treatment."

Ye Luo glanced at Nie Wenling and nodded his head.

Then, the mother of the Nie sisters, the young man in the suit, and the old man Zhou all walked out, leaving only Ye Luo and the two Nie sisters in the room.

Ye Luo walked to the bedside, his eyes calmly looking at Nie Wenyu who was lying down.

It had to be said that Nie Wenyu was indeed a great beauty. Even though she was suffering from the consumption by the blood-consuming Gu insect and her face showed signs of illness, it couldn’t hide her beauty. At this moment, her pale face and weak expression evoked a feeling of pity.

"Help your sister take off her outer clothing," Ye Luo said, glancing at Nie Wenling.

"What? Take off her outer clothing? What are you going to do?"

Hearing Ye Luo’s words, Nie Wenling’s eyes showed a hint of wariness as she looked at him.

"Relax, I’m not the kind of bad guy who takes advantage of others in their time of weakness. I need to give your sister acupuncture, and with my current abilities, I am still unable to perform it accurately through clothing. Moreover, this blood-consuming Gu insect is very powerful. If I don’t succeed the first time, it will be difficult to drive it out again, so I must be cautious," Ye Luo said gravely.

"Humph, if I find out you have any ideas about my sister, I won’t let you off," Wen Ling said sternly as she glared at Ye Luo. Afterwards, she began to remove the quilt and helped her sister take off her outer clothing.

Her whole body was emaciated due to the loss of a great deal of vital blood, undoubtedly looking like a skeletal beauty.

Ye Luo was also helpless, unable to see the acupuncture points clearly meant he couldn’t needle properly. If he hit the wrong place, not only would he fail to save her, he could even harm her accidentally. The so-called Medical Practitioner’s Benevolent Heart may not be something he had much of, but he certainly wouldn’t recklessly cause harm. As for the certain areas he might catch a glimpse of, it truly wasn’t his intention.

"Hurry up with the treatment!"

Nie Wenling urged quickly.

"Keep quiet, and don’t disturb me," Ye Luo said with a thread of authority in his voice, which had a deterring effect, making Nie Wenling fall silent for a moment.

Then Ye Luo’s expression focused, and with a wave of his hands, he grasped a Silver Needle between the index and middle fingers of each hand and swiftly inserted them into Nie Wenyu’s Danzhong acupoint.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

In the blink of an eye, Ye Luo waved out several Silver Needles, all of which he inserted into Nie Wenyu’s body. As he needled her, the blood-consuming Gu insect lurking within her began to move aggressively.

Heaven and earth without limit, yin and yang separate and combine; when the nine palaces converge, they form the Eight Trigrams!

Ye Luo was intently performing the Eight Trigrams acupuncture, preparing to force the blood-eating Gu Insect out. At this moment, the blood-eating Gu Insect had already started moving within Nie Wenyu’s body.

One could vaguely see something wriggling under Nie Wenyu’s fair skin as Ye Luo continued to insert needles, driving it towards her right hand.

At that time, Nie Wenyu let out several moans, and her brows were furrowed with a pained expression.

Outside the room, Nie Yuntian and his wife, along with their adopted son Xiang Zuo and Elder Zhou, were waiting anxiously.

"Yuntian, do you think that young man can really cure Wenyu? He’s not a swindler, is he?"

Mrs. Nie still wore a skeptical expression, her heart somewhat uneasy.

"Mrs. Nie, what that young man said is indeed true. If Miss Nie does not receive treatment from a skilled individual, she truly will not live long, but this young man can actually speak of removing Gu poison, which clearly sets him apart from ordinary people. There might be a chance for survival. However, people from Miaojiang seldom go out, and it’s even rarer for folks from Huaxia to see Gu poison. How could Miss Nie have such a powerful Gu insect inside her?"

Elder Zhou spoke with a slight frown, while Nie Yuntian’s eyes narrowed, flashing a peculiar expression.

"I want to see how you’ll escape!"

Inside the room, Nie Wenyu’s body was pierced by eighteen Silver Needles. Ye Luo sealed off her entire body and cornered the Gu Insect to her right hand, and now the blood-eating Gu Insect was going berserk.

Ye Luo’s lips curved into a cold smile. With a wave of his hands, he sent another Silver Needle flying out, and at the same time, a surge of energy flowed into her body.

"Out!"

Following Ye Luo’s stern shout, a hole suddenly appeared on Nie Wenyu’s arm, and a blood-soaked caterpillar burst out, causing Nie Wenling to involuntarily step back, her eyes filled with a hint of fear.

"Still trying to escape!"

Ye Luo snorted coldly, and with a wave of his hand, a Silver Needle shot out rapidly, piercing through the elusive blood-thirsty Gu Insect, nailing it to the floor. The insect, less than two centimeters long, twitched a few times and then lay motionless.

Meanwhile, thousands of miles away in a dark place in Huaxia, an old woman dressed in Miaojiang attire, with gray hair, suddenly opened her eyes wide, and blood spurted from her mouth.

"How could this be? The blood-eating Gu Insect is dead?"

"Damn it, who killed my blood-eating Gu Insect? I want them to suffer a fate worse than death."

The old woman let out a series of crazed howls, then her face calmed down, and her eyes shimmered with a cold and ruthless light.

"Nie Yuntian, I will make sure you pay back everything you owe me from the past. I will make you utterly regret it!" the old woman said viciously.

Back in Nie Wenyu’s room, Ye Luo glanced at the dead blood-eating Gu Insect and breathed a sigh of relief. Then, with a single motion, all the Silver Needles on Nie Wenyu’s body disappeared, and Ye Luo placed his hands directly on her abdomen.

"Hey, what are you doing? Taking advantage of my sister, huh?"

Nie Wenling immediately called out in questioning upon seeing Ye Luo’s actions.

"If you want your sister to wake up, then stop talking nonsense."

Ye Luo snorted coldly, and his icy voice immediately silenced Nie Wenling again.

The Nine Yang Mystic Art within Ye Luo’s body started to operate, and a robust surge of Nine Yang True Qi entered her body, beginning to nourish and restore Nie Wenyu’s depleted organs.

Although the blood-eating Gu Insect had been forced out, the vital energy Nie Wenyu had lost was not easily recoverable. Ye Luo was now using his own Nine Yang True Qi to help her regain strength in her weakened organs.

If he didn’t do this, the severely tormented beauty Nie might have passed out straight away, possibly even becoming a vegetable.
