Xiao Zheng hesitated to speak, hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Disciple has a friend who fell into a coma while on a mission to kill the Weiba Snake a few days ago. He has not woken up yet. Disciple is bold... bold to ask Master to go and have a look."
Gu Xiaonian saw that his handsome face was stained with a faint blush, and joked: "Is it a girl?"
'Mu Yueru' suddenly knelt on the ground with a plop, and said with a somewhat anxious tone: "Sister Cheng is a good girl. She bravely explored Wei Cliff and saved countless townspeople. I beg Master to go and have a look."
Gu Xiaonian cast his gaze towards the kneeling 'Mu Yueru' and said nothing for a long time, which was quite meaningful.
He stepped down from the seat and lifted Mu Yueru up with his own hands. His tone was always gentle and doting: "Okay, okay... Master, I'll go right now. Xiao Yue'er, don't worry, I'll go right now, Master Wai..."
Mu Yueru's tears turned into laughter in an instant. She tentatively pulled up Gu Xiaonian's sleeves and smiled sweetly at him.
Xiao Zheng lowered his head and waited quietly, watching the warm interaction between his master and his junior sister, acting as a quiet background, with a hint of darkness in his dark eyes.
…
"Master, how is she?"
Gu Xiaonian took back the index finger that was touching Li Ying's eyebrows. His face turned gloomy. He pondered for a moment and said, "Her soul left her body, so she hasn't woken up yet."
Surprise flashed on Mu Yueru's face and she said: "Soul leaving the body? How could this happen?!"
Xiao Zheng, who was standing next to Li Ying's bed, also looked at Gu Xiaonian, waiting for his answer.
Gu Xiaonian coughed: "That Kuiba snake has the power to capture the heart and soul... Are all the townspeople on the altar awake a few days ago?"
"Everyone is awake, Master."
He frowned lightly, pinched his fingers with his right hand and calculated carefully: "It shouldn't, it shouldn't... Kuiba Snake is dead, why hasn't her soul returned yet?"
Xiao Zheng cast a worried look at Li Ying, who was sleeping on the bed, with a trace of regret flashing in his eyes.
"The Kuiba snake was really killed by Feirong?"
"This..." Xiao Zheng carefully recalled the traces of the scene and said hesitantly: "Master means..."
Gu Xiaonian said: "That kid Fei Rong is used to wielding swords. He is born with a sword body and possesses the ultimate transformation ice spirit root."
Xiao Zheng paused and followed the guess in his mind: "The Weiba snake has burn marks on its body, and its fatal injury was a knife wound, so..."
"The person who killed it was someone else!"
"The person who killed it was someone else!"
Xiao Zheng and Mu Yueru spoke at the same time. They looked at each other with fear in their eyes.
The person who killed Kuiba Snake, who had a Nascent Soul cultivation level, must have been at the Nascent Soul stage at least.
There are also some Nascent Soul practitioners in the cultivating world who possess strange fire.
If Li Ying's soul leaving the body is related to this person, he must be good at the art of capturing souls. Then there are only a few people in the world of cultivation who meet the above regulations at the same time...
A sudden realization flashed in Xiao Zheng's eyes. He bowed respectfully to Gu Xiaonian, then turned around and left.
'Mu Yueru' saw him leaving suddenly and wondered: "What did Senior Brother Xiao think of and why did he leave so suddenly?"
Gu Xiaonian tapped her head with the folding fan in his hand, and led her slowly out of Li Ying's room. As he walked, he explained to her: "It's like this..."
'Mu Yueru' walking beside him listened carefully and her mind was spinning rapidly.
She was immersed in Gu Xiaonian's gentle explanation voice and lowered her head slightly, not seeing the deep peach blossoms in his eyes when he looked at her.
At the same time, Li Ying on the other side, who didn't know that she had just almost fallen off her horse, straightened her body, carefully holding a small porcelain bottle in her hand, and stood under the shade of the locust tree at Kuai Cliff.
