Chapter 59: Are you Xu An’s elder sister?
“Xu Jiangxin, as long as Master is alive, I’m still the Eldest Senior Sister of the Tianshan Sect!”
“Hmph, you abandoned Master in danger, and you still have the nerve to say such things!”
Looking at Shen Xue standing in front of her, Xu Jiangxin gritted her teeth in hatred, wanting to kill her with a single sword!
Xu Jiangxin hated it deeply!
It was because Shen Xue couldn’t be found that Martial Uncle reached out his poisonous hand to her.
Now that she was no longer a virgin, she had to endure serving Martial Uncle just so her younger brother could continue to live peacefully in the sect.
Every night, she couldn’t sleep from sadness.
What a load of crap, the Tianshan Sect was a den of corruption, a bunch of scum!
Thinking of this, Xu Jiangxin’s resentment grew even stronger.
It was all Shen Xue’s fault; if it weren’t for her, she wouldn’t have been treated like this!
“Who said that! I went down the mountain to find a physician for Master. Now that I’ve finally invited someone, Master can be saved!”
“Invited someone? Are you referring to the two people behind you? Shen Xue, stop quibbling! What is your purpose for coming here this time? The Tianshan Sect is not a place you can come and go as you please!”
“I can’t explain it clearly to you now. Move aside! I need to save Master!”
“Save Master? Shen Xue, don’t forget, Martial Uncle is still waiting for you at the sect.”
When mentioning the words “Martial Uncle,” Xu Jiangxin’s words were filled with resentment, which made Shen Xue’s heart fill with doubt. She didn’t know what had happened at the Tianshan Sect after she left.
Why was Xu Jiangxin’s current state so wrong, like a wild beast on the verge of going mad.
“Are you Xu An’s elder sister?”
At this moment, Gu Yu suddenly spoke, interrupting the tense atmosphere between Xu Jiangxin and Shen Xue.
And it was precisely because of the name “Xu An” that Xu Jiangxin’s expression changed drastically… How would a stranger brought by Shen Xue know her younger brother’s name?
Could it be…
“How do you know my brother’s name? Where is he now?”
A bad premonition suddenly arose in her heart, causing Xu Jiangxin to anxiously ask.
“Dead.”
“What? You killed my brother! I wish you all a terrible death!”
After hearing her bad premonition come true, Xu Jiangxin immediately pointed her long sword at Shen Xue and slashed quickly, her moves fierce and venomous, wanting to make Shen Xue bleed on the spot!
Her brother getting into trouble must have been because of Shen Xue!
It was all this seductive vixen’s fault for seducing the men of the Tianshan Sect, and she wouldn’t even spare her brother!
Otherwise, how could her brother have died…
“Wait, I haven’t finished speaking. Do you want your brother to die with his eyes open?”
However, upon hearing Gu Yu’s voice again, Xu Jiangxin hesitated for a moment and finally retreated quickly, ceasing her fight with Shen Xue.
Afterwards, with red eyes, she looked towards Gu Yu, wanting to hear how her brother had died!
“When we were traveling here today, we saw your brother’s body in a town near the Tianshan Sect. He died a tragic death, and it seems he had been dead for three or four days. If Shen Xue hadn’t recognized him as her junior brother, we would have just driven our carriage away.”
“My brother did leave a few days ago, but perhaps you are lying!”
“Why would I lie to you? What benefit would that bring? However, I heard from the villagers passing by that it seemed he was being chased by enemies because his sister was going to become the Sect Leader… By the way, your brother is buried in a bamboo forest not far from the Tianshan Sect, in a place called Chang Town. After all, we are in a hurry to save someone and don’t have time to take him…”
As soon as her brother was mentioned, Xu Jiangxin lost her composure.
Even before Gu Yu finished speaking, Xu Jiangxin leaped down with a chain and prepared to go bring back her brother’s body!
Moreover, she was determined to find the murderer!
“A’yu, why did you lie to her? Xu An’s body was handled by the innkeeper directly at your instruction. Now, when Xu Jiangxin goes to find it, she’ll definitely know it was us who did it.”
“It doesn’t matter if she knows. It’s just to buy time. For now, let’s focus on saving the Sect Leader of the Tianshan Sect… Actually, killing him directly would also work! However, Xu An was killed because he attempted something indecent, but his sister hasn’t committed any offense, so killing her directly isn’t ideal!”
When Gu Mengyao asked with confusion, Gu Yu gave a reasonable explanation.
However, if Gu Yu were truly so kind, Gu Mengyao might have believed him directly.
But Gu Mengyao was very familiar with her little husband’s personality… She knew that he must have had other reasons for doing this.
At this moment, with Shen Xue present, Gu Mengyao couldn’t ask too much. She just gave Gu Yu a very suspicious look.
After being looked at by his little wife, Gu Yu couldn’t help but smile helplessly, thinking that he was truly being kind this time!
Given the current situation at the Tianshan Sect, if Xu Jiangxin were to be killed, it would undoubtedly cause a lot of trouble.
After all, Xu Jiangxin was the designated successor for the Sect Leader position.
Therefore, after curing Shen Xue’s Master, the trouble could be transferred.
It was best to leave the matters of the Tianshan Sect to the people of the Tianshan Sect to resolve!
As long as they didn’t block their way home, everything would be fine!
Upon hearing Gu Yu’s words, Shen Xue, who had also been thinking about this matter, immediately stopped pondering. Instead, she quickly led Gu Yu and Gu Mengyao to where her Master lived.
However, looking at the empty residence, only a bed remained in the room.
Shen Xue had not expected such a scene. She immediately rushed forward, and upon seeing her emaciated Master, she knelt by the bed and cried, regretting why she couldn’t have arrived any sooner.
If she had arrived earlier, her Master wouldn’t have suffered so much!
“Master, your disciple is late!”
“It’s Xiao… Xue ah! You’re not late, I… these old bones… aren’t dead yet. It’s… very good to be able to see you…”
Gu Yu looked at the middle-aged woman lying on the bed. Although she looked like she was about to breathe her last, her features indicated she was well-maintained and quite attractive.
Recalling the Tianshan Sect disciples he had seen on the road, it seemed that most of them were women, and none of them were particularly ugly!
No wonder Shen Xue had said before… that she could freely choose anyone among the Tianshan Sect disciples to be her servant or maid.
“Master, please don’t speak anymore. Let Divine Doctor Gu examine your body!”
Although Shen Xue was very emotional at the moment, she did not forget that Gu Yu was by her side. After speaking, she immediately stepped aside, letting Gu Yu come forward to help with the treatment.
Gu Yu did not refuse, after all, the purpose of their trip was to save the Sect Leader of the Tianshan Sect.
However, upon closer inspection, Gu Yu couldn’t help but frown.
Looking closely at the Sect Leader of the Tianshan Sect’s complexion, it didn’t seem like a severe injury threatening her life, but rather like poisoning.
