Ye Bufan looked back and saw that the Gu King had taken off the mask on his face and turned into Long Xiaoyue again.
At this moment, she was looking at herself carefully, as if she was a little girl who had done something wrong.
He smiled slightly and said, "Why are you apologizing to me? You haven't done anything to apologize to me."
"Because I lied to you." Long Xiaoyue said apologetically, "Brother, in fact, I have never lost my memory. Those things were all made up to lie to you."
Ye Bufan pulled her and sat down on a huge rock nearby: "Then why did you lie to me? There must be a reason."
Long Xiaoyue sat close to him and said: "In our Gu King Village, according to the clan rules, the Gu King never shows his true face to others. The purpose is to prevent others from attacking during the inheritance.
But sometimes this kind of thing cannot be prevented. For example, I am sister An Cai'e.
My master passed away some time ago. Although he secretly passed the position of Gu King to me, she was still aware of it and was extremely dissatisfied.
In fact, I don't really care about the position of Gu King, but my master specifically designated me to do it before he died. I must not fall into An Cai'e's hands. I must comply with her last wish.
But in terms of previous strength, An Cai'e and I are about the same, so Master is a little uneasy.
Before she died, she told me the location of the pool and explained that the Xuanyin Zhu fruit would be ripe soon.
Let me raise the level of the Gu insect after picking it. She relied on a Xuanyin Vermilion Fruit to enter the heavenly level.
So I went there alone, but I didn't expect that there were two big snakes in the pool, and they were much more powerful than Master said.
Because it was unexpected, I was injured, but luckily I met my little brother."
Ye Bufan said: "Then, after you woke up, you suspected that I had Xuanyin Zhuguo in my body, so you lied?"
Long Xiaoyue's cheeks turned red: "Brother, I have no choice. If I can't get the Xuanyin Vermillion Fruit, my Gu Insect won't be able to advance.
If you can't be promoted to Heavenly Gu, you won't be able to secure your position as the Gu King and you won't be able to fulfill Master's last wish, so I lied to you."
"But I don't understand, whether you are the King of Gu or not has anything to do with whether I can give you the Xuanyin Zhu Fruit or not?"
"It doesn't matter. I never thought at the time that you would give me such a precious thing just because you said it was for me.
I just thought that if I lose my memory, I can follow you and then secretly find an opportunity to get the fruit myself."
Having said this, Long Xiaoyue quickly blushed and explained, "Brother, I am not a greedy person. If you have three, I will only take one and leave the rest to you."
Ye Bufan said: "What happened later? Since you have obtained the Xuanyin Zhuguo to help the Gu insect advance, why didn't you tell the truth or leave directly?"
"Later, you gave me the fruit so generously. I felt very embarrassed, so I wanted to stay with you and help you do something to repay your kindness.
Little brother, I have been really happy with you these past few days, but the better you treat me, the more guilty I feel, and now I can finally say it."
At this point, the little girl took a deep breath, looked at him and said, "Brother, I really didn't mean to lie to you, please forgive me, okay?"
Ye Bufan said with a straight face: "Of course it's not good."
Long Xiaoyue suddenly became anxious when she saw his angry look, and her beautiful big eyes were filled with tears: "Brother, are you really angry with me? I had no choice, so I lied at that time.
your……"
"Okay, I'm just teasing you." Ye Bufan smiled, "I've never been angry with you, so there's no such thing as forgiveness or not."
Long Xiaoyue said: "Really? You didn't lie to me, did you?"
"Of course it's true." Ye Bufan said, "Actually, I want to thank you this time. If you hadn't helped me, I wouldn't have been able to take down Shangguan's house so quickly, and I might have been in danger of my life, so I thank you.
That's true.
As for your identity, there is actually no difference in my eyes at all. Regardless of whether you have amnesia or not, whether you are the Gu King of the Gu King Village or not, in my eyes you are just Long Xiaoyue."
"Brother, you are so kind. You are the only person in this world that I can completely trust."
The little girl finished speaking excitedly, then became lonely again, "It's a pity that I couldn't help you find the antidote to Sleeping Beauty."
Ye Bufan raised his hand and patted her shoulder, sighed and said, "Shangguan's family doesn't have one, so how can I blame you?"
Long Xiaoyue said: "Brother, what do you want to do next?"
"We don't know yet." Ye Bufan said with determination, "But no matter what, Xuening was poisoned because of me. Even if I travel to the ends of the world, I will find an antidote to revive her."
"Brother, you are so kind to your girlfriend." Long Xiaoyue said, "Actually, you can discuss it with Mr. Zhu You. The Zhu You family is originally a medical family. And Zhu You's skills are really magical, and they happen many times.
The effect of bringing the dead back to life may be able to save your girlfriend."
Ye Bufan's eyes lit up. He had also seen records about Zhu Youshu in the inheritance. Although he didn't believe it, he was extremely impressed by its effect.
"You are right, I will go find Mr. Zhu You right now."
After he finished speaking, he stood up, and at this moment Zhu Youguangji walked over from the side.
"Brother Ye, can I talk to you, old man?"
After Zhu Youguangji finished speaking, he glanced at Zhu Youjian who was standing next to him. There were complicated expressions in his eyes, including love, regret, and pain.
Seeing that the two of them had something to talk about, Long Xiaoyue put on her mask and walked away.
Ye Bufan said: "Old man, I just have something to ask you."
As the two of them talked, they sat down again in their previous positions. Zhu Youguangji said, "Brother Ye, our Zhu You family has offended you a lot in the past. Please forgive me."
Ye Bufan said: "Don't blame those who don't know, it's nothing."
Zhu Youguangji said: "Little brother, old man, I have a grudge. I want you to return the sword to our Zhu You family and let him rest in peace. What do you think?"
This was the result of his careful consideration. In any case, Zhu Youjian was dead, and the right way was to rest in peace.
But he just saw that his grandson is now someone else's corpse, and it is an extremely precious golden corpse, comparable to a heaven-level warrior.
In this case, it would be too much for him to make this request again, and I am afraid that the other party will not agree.
But no matter what, he had to give it a try. After all, this was his most beloved grandson since he was a child, and he couldn't just watch him be someone else's corpse puppet all the time.
After finishing speaking, he looked at Ye Bufan with burning eyes, full of expectation.
"Brother Ye, the old man also knows that this request is a bit excessive. If you need any kind of compensation, just ask for it. Even if we spend all our money, Zhu Youjia will satisfy you."
Ye Bufan did not answer his question directly, but asked: "Old man, I wonder how much you know about corpse refining?"
"This... I know nothing about it at all. Our Zhu You family specializes in medicine and Zhu Youshu, and we have no experience in corpse refining."
Zhu Youguangji said, "The old man was just a little curious, so he took the liberty to ask why Brother Ye is proficient in the corpse refining art and is even more skilled than the Shangguan family if he is not a cultivator from the evil sect."
