Gu.

Love Gu.

Lan Deng, Yao Yue.

For a brief moment, her mind cleared, only to plunge back into confusion. Youyou struggled violently, her body thrashing, and her mouth emitting piercing, ear-splitting sounds.

The prolonged torment of not being able to see Lan Deng had caused unbearable suffering. As a result, the child gu inside Youyou’s body grew increasingly restless and agitated.

It incessantly emitted a longing to reunite with the mother gu, and as time passed, the child gu gradually started moving towards Youyou’s heart, attempting to take control of it.

A fleeting trace of pain crossed her phoenix-like eyes. Suddenly, Yao Yue released her grip, allowing the disoriented girl to pounce and bite her. It was only when the girl attempted to pull away that Yao Yue softly uttered a sentence.

“If you dare to take even half a step out of this room, I will hack Lan Deng into a thousand pieces and crush the Mother gu to dust. Believe me, you won’t want to witness that scene.”

This statement, rather than being directed at Youyou, seemed more like a warning to the parasitic insect inside her. Seeing the girl freeze, disbelieving, at her words, the misty light in Yao Yue’s eyes flickered, and she continued in a calm tone.

“Furthermore, for every drop of blood I shed, I will make Lan Deng bleed twice as much. For every pain I endure, I will make Lan Deng suffer even more.”

Gripping onto the girl’s lifeline, using a trace of inner strength, Yao Yue delved into her body, finally locating that repulsive insect within Youyou’s heart meridian.

Her eyes suddenly turned cold and ruthless. This love gu was indeed smarter than she had imagined, capable of understanding self-preservation.

Releasing the girl’s pulse, she then pressed down on her heart, applying significant force. This action caused not only the girl but also the love gu to experience shock and injury.

Locking her gaze on Youyou’s pale and sweaty face, her tine turned icy, and an unrestrained murderous aura surged forth from her.

“You wretched insect, you better behave yourself, or else, I won’t just kill Lan Deng, I’ll skin you alive, drain your blood, and then bring Mother Gu to keep you company.”

The child Gu doesn’t care about the safety of the host body, but it cares about the life and death of the Mother Gu. Therefore, when Yao Yue’s words fell, the child Gu, who had been sending out disturbing signals to the host body, stopped howling and lurked quietly in the host body, waiting for an opportunity next to the heart of the body.

Not long after, Youyou, who had been growling and resisting, suddenly woke up.

She closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she had regained her senses.

His eyes fell on Yao Yue’s injured body, and Youyou reached out to touch the bloody shoulder, with a bit of a muffled sob.

”I’m sorry, Yao Yue.”

Guilty and timid, meeting Yao Yue’s dark eyes, Youyou thought for a while, and took the initiative to untie the belt of her clothes to avenge Yao Yue.

“Bite me back, before I can resist again.”

People who’re held captive by the love gu don’t forget their actions while they were being controlled. Just like how in the derivative plot, after Yao Yue got rid of the love gu, no matter how much anger and hatred she harbored for Lan Deng, she didn’t kill her. This is because, over the course of time when she was controlled by the love gu, she fell in love with Lan Deng.

Therefore, even though Yao Yue hated the love gu very much, and took her revenge afterwards, no matter how deeply she calculated against her, or how thoroughly she used her, she never went as far as killing Lan Deng.

And in the later stage of the derivative plot, Yao Yue finally fell in love with Lan Deng after all kinds of sadomasochistic situations, and finally got together with Lan Deng, after which they lived happily ever after.

But now, it turned out that she was infected by the love gu instead of Yao Yue ?

Blinking, Youyou began searching for a way to cure the love gu from the derivative plot, but the lingering pain in her shoulder threw her off slightly.

You see, whether it’s in the original plot or the derivative storyline, Yao Yue’s temperament is one of seeking revenge for even the smallest grievances. She’s petty, holds grudges, and is quite cunning.

“Heh, if it wasn’t because I let you, do you think you’d be able to hurt me?”

Understanding the surprise on the girl’s face, Yao Yue immediately sneered, and she tapped lightly on Youyou’s lips with her ice-cold fingertips.

Seeing the girl’s astonished expression, Yao Yue let out a chuckle, brushing her icy fingertips across Youyou’s lips, and with an ambiguous tone, offered, “Xiao Youyou, if you feel guilty, you can make it up in another way.”

In this situation, Yao Yue’s meaning is self-evident.

Youyou: ……

”Ah?”

The memories of confusion, violence, and intimacy during the time she was under the influence of the gu began to flood in, causing Youyou’s face to flush bright red, as vibrant as the morning glow.

“How about it, xiao Youyou? Do you remember?”

Leaning down and kissing the corner of Youyou’s lips, Yao Yue ignored the pain on her body, and gently raised her lips in a seductive and weak smile.

“Now that the stinky bug has calmed down, my Youyou can use her body to reward me first. After all, aren’t there are still many days when I will be injured?”

Fingers gradually slid down along the girl’s collarbone, and finally stopped at the waistline. Yao Yue tentatively slipped her tongue into Youyou’s mouth. Seeing that the girl didn’t resist, she gradually increased her strength and her movements became wilder.

The gauzy curtains danced in the breeze.

The two of them were entangled in a passionate embrace.

Before Youyou could even refuse, she was forcefully drawn into the tide of passion by the domineering actions of Yao Yue. Before long, she was completely captivated by the sea of desire, only able to cling to Yao Yue as if she were adrift, emitting sweet and alluring moans.

Meanwhile, the shadow guards who occasionally entered the room to add ice cubes could only remain composed and focused, wishing they could close their five senses to prevent any possibility of being killed by their master in the future.

As the sun set behind the western mountains, Moon Demon Tower became dimly lit inside.

Yao Yue stepped into the hot spring with Youyou, who had already passed out, in her arms.

Washing both their bodies.

After the culmination of passion and desire, Yao Yue emanated an aura that was both languid and eerie, like a seductive enchantress who could steal one’s soul. She seemed entirely unconcerned about her injuries, her focus solely on watching Youyou, her expression tender.

The disheveled bed was tidied up by someone else. By the time Yao Yue carried Youyou back onto the bed, the sky had turned completely dark, and the room was filled with the fragrance of specially crafted incense.

“Prepare the meal.”

Using her inner energy to dry her own hair, Yao Yue woke up Youyou. With a reluctant expression, Youyou was met with a gentle laugh as Yao Yue lightly nudged her stomach.

“It’s been so long, aren’t you hungry?”

Youyou blinked and said sullenly, “Hungry.”

But she didn’t want to move, she had no strength left.

Understanding Youyou’s situation, Yao Yue gently patted her little head, squinting her eyes and saying with a smile, “Good girl, you’ve worked hard. Let me feed you.”

Youyou: …….

While chewing on the fish, Youyou finally realized a certain issue – that Xixi was missing.

Frowning slightly, Youyou tried to summon Xixi with her thoughts while searching through her jumbled memories. In the end, she came to the conclusion that ever since being affected by the love gu, Xixi hadn’t appeared at all.

Finishing her meal absentmindedly, Youyou rinsed her mouth and then fell into a drowsy sleep. Seeing how tired she was, Yao Yue didn’t disturb her anymore. After finishing their meal, Yao Yue went out to give some instructions before also going to sleep.

The midnight was cold and desolate, with the bright moon hanging high in the sky.

At some point, Youyou who was lying on the big red bed suddenly opened her eyes.

She first looked cautiously at the alluring woman beside her, ensuring that she was still asleep. Youyou then stealthily got out of bed and slipped out, and, resembling an arrow, dashed out of the room, forgetting to put on her outer clothing and embroidered shoes.

“Damn pesky bug.”

Her clenched fist had her nails digging into her flesh. The brightness and sharpness of her gaze showed that there was no trace of sleepiness in her.

Following the guidance of the connection between the mother and child gu, Youyou ran left and right in the headquarters of the Demonic Cult.

As per Yao Yue’s orders, the shadow guards, both covert and overt, collectively ignored her. In fact, someone had already opened the door to the water prison ahead of time.

Her fair and delicate little feet were already scraped and bleeding from the stones on the ground. Panting and coughing, Youyou rushed into the dungeon and skillfully located Blue amidst the surroundings.

”Lan Deng, Lan Deng~”

Youyou called out with a sweet, affection filled voice as she widened her eyes in an attempt to see her surroundings better.

”Lan Deng, Lan Deng~”

The increasingly loud voice caught the attention of Bai Gu and Bai Ling in the opposite cell. As they heard their Saintess only calling out to the girl named Lan Deng, seemingly without a thought for them, they couldn’t help but let out a bitter smile.

“It seems that love Gu really deserves its reputation.”

Thinking of the words sent by Yao Yue’s people, Bai Gu sighed faintly.

“After I get out of here, I will eradicate all the love insects in the world,”

Her delicate face was filled with anger as she struggled against the iron chains. Her tone was disdainful, “It’s just one insect relying on another. These Miaojiang Gu women resort to such methods, chaining the hearts of those who love them. Truly selfish and despicable.”

Who would want to be controlled by an insect? Falling in love with someone who was initially a stranger, the current appearance of the Holy Maiden truly made her detest love gu more than ever before.

“Don’t… don’t call out anymore.”

A faint voice, as if on the brink of losing consciousness, and then a movement from the cold and numb body of Lan Deng, followed by the sound of water splashing.

After finally managing to force herself to sleep despite the pain, Lan Deng, who was awaken by Youyou, was extremely angry.

She bit her lower lip as she chased her away impatiently.

“Bai, You, You, can you get the hell out of here?”

She could already foresee how that perverted woman, Yao Yue, would torture her because the female lead came to see her.

“Scram!”

The experiences of these days had stretched Lan Deng’s nerves to their limit. If it weren’t for the lingering hope in her heart that the system would come to rescue her, she would have committed suicide by now.

After all, Lan Deng had grown up in a well-cared-for environment. She came from a well-off family and had a pampered upbringing. Throughout her life, even minor illnesses like a common cold had people lining up to take care of her.

Asking about her well-being and warming her bed.

In her heart, she had lost interest in the system’s strategy game long ago.

Now, all Lan Deng wanted was to end it all as soon as possible.

”Lan, Deng.”

Yao Yue, seeing the distressed figure of the girl before the cell, her grief intensifying with each passing moment, her hand over her mouth, felt pity towards Youyou.

Crystal clear.

“Master, the delegations from other countries have already set off for the Qinglong Emperor’s birthday celebration. I…”

She raised her hand to stop her subordinate from speaking further. Dressed in red attire, the demeanor of the enchanting and seductive Yao Yue was now cold and distant, far from her usual charm and allure.

“Go and make preparations. Additionally, send more people to the Miao Clan. We must obtain the antidote as soon as possible. If necessary, the Miao Clan can be exterminated.”

There was a sharp coldness in her eyes.

Yao Yue gazed at You You, her lips slightly pursed.
