C250 Hundred Gu Emergence

After his anger had subsided, Helian Xiufeng thought back to when Gu Qingruo had asked her to pay attention to Gabriella and Zhou Zhen. For a moment, he could not find anything out of the ordinary.

Gabriella was charming and passionate, while Zhou Zhen was elegant and dignified. The two of them should be very easy to get along with. It seemed like they wouldn't cause any trouble either. If anything was amiss with them, it was the dream they'd had in recent days, and it only got weirder and weirder.

At first, the wasp in the black cocoon had broken out of the cocoon, but later on, the wasp's appearance became clearer and clearer, constantly repeating the scene of that day's sting. There was even someone who seemed to quietly call out to her in her ear.

Starting from the night before yesterday, the silhouette of a woman vaguely appeared behind the black cocoon. It faintly made Helian Shuang feel that they had met before, and that it was becoming clearer with each passing day.

According to his previous progress, Helian Shuanghui had no need to be overly suspicious, because this woman would inevitably become more and more clear in her nightmares, until she could see clearly.

But Helian Xiangrui didn't like the feeling of waiting, and the nightmare disturbed her, as if the bees could fly to her at any moment and surround her and sting her everywhere.

In her dream, she subconsciously paid extra attention to the girl, as if her consciousness in her dream could also be controlled. Until today, she had seen a crescent-shaped scar on Zhou Zhen's wrist. Suddenly, she recalled that in her dream, the woman had also seen a familiar scar on her wrist.

Returning to the Cheng Yang Inn, the first thing he did in the night was force himself to go to bed, but the doubts in his heart were too deep. Instead, he tossed and turned, unable to sleep.

It was so easy for her to fall asleep. Her dreams began with the black cocoon, but this time they became clearer and larger before her eyes.

She finally saw the woman behind the cocoon open her palm. The black cocoon was lying on top of her palm, and it was slowly being handed to her. The crescent-shaped scar on her wrist became more and more clear.

The bee burst out of the cocoon, seemingly a full circle larger than before. Its compound eyes were rolling back and forth, malevolent and terrifying. Especially when it was glaring at someone, it seemed to be speaking in human language.

Suddenly, it charged forward. Helian Xiufeng subconsciously retreated from the dream, and he heard it whisper in his ear, "Hundred Gu Reappearance, World Slaughterer …"

Helian Peng woke up from his shock. This was the first time he dreamt of waking up covered in cold sweat after such a short period of time.

She hugged the blanket and sat there blankly for a long time, certain that the hand in her dream was Zhou Zhen.

Remembering how he was saved by Zhou Zhen and was able to quickly deal with the matter of the stings, Helian Shuang suddenly became suspicious: Did the poison in her body cure or not? If Gu Qingli had lied to her back then, then her pulse should have been normal. But why did she keep having such strange dreams? It was as if someone were manipulating her dreams.

She jumped out of bed, ran to the dressing table, and held the bronze mirror. She looked around, but there was nothing wrong with the sting, not even a needle-like wound. On the contrary, he had seen too much. He felt that the moonlight was hazy, and the person in the mirror looked suspicious and a little cold.

Helian Peng shivered and called for someone to hold the lamp. Immediately, a palace maid hurriedly held the lamp and rubbed her sleepy eyes. She looked at her in confusion. "Princess, what's wrong?"

Helian Shuang turned back into the mirror. On the smooth surface of the bronze mirror, only her pale face and eyes showed fear. There were two circles of black shadow under her eyes. Her hair was in disarray at her temples, and her clothes were untidy.

She touched her face, waved her hand in frustration, and sat back down on the bed. She could not say that she had been haunted by a nightmare, and that the dream was merely a bee that had stung her? If word were to spread out, wouldn't she, the noble princess of the Northern Chu, be a weak girl that even the bees fear?

That night, Helian Xianzi did not sleep at all. He only rolled around in his bed, and when he woke up in the morning, the green shadows in his eyes were even more prominent.

He had long since heard that Gu Qingruo had come to the Cheng Yang Inn to visit, but he hadn't seen Helian Yu. It was said that he had already seen his guest, but he didn't know what guests he would meet in the East Plains.

Upon hearing Gu Qingruo's words, Helian Peng's first thought was of Xiao Yi Xiu. He joyfully ordered the palace maid to go to Helian Yu's side to inquire about the matter. In the end, he came back to report, only having been invited to come check on the crown prince's pulse. Helian Yu didn't allow the guards to reveal the identity of the doctor, so she couldn't find out more.

As soon as Helian Shuang heard that it was a doctor, he became disinterested. She knew that after her brother returned from the battlefield a few years ago, he was heavily injured and confined to bed, unable to free himself. Later on, other than relying on his own willpower, he trained to open eight extraordinary meridians.

Even so, Helian Yu still had a small amount of Qi points and meridians that he could not open. It seemed that this did not affect his life, but in reality, it was a huge hindrance to his advancement in martial arts. It even caused him to be stuck at that hurdle with no progress at all.

Thus, in the days after Helian Yu became at ease, he visited famous doctors everywhere. No matter where he went, he would not give up the opportunity to restore his strength.

He thought that after several years of stagnation, he was bound to be far inferior to Xiao Yi Xiu, and that he would have no chance to wash away his shame. However, he didn't know that Xiao Yi Xiu was actually just like him. Xiao Yi couldn't use any of his inner strength, nor could he cultivate any of his inner strength.

Gu Qingruo, however, did not know of all this and was curious as to why Helian Yu needed to diagnose an illness when it seemed that his inner strength was extremely high and his spirit was superb. She asked casually, and Helian Xianzi said it out, his face full of mocking sneers, behind her back, she also had no respect for her brother.

Gu Qingruo keenly sensed this point, but smiled without saying a word, secretly thinking it over in her heart.

"Princess Helian, actually, since Prince Mo came back from the battlefield, he has had a relapse soon after. He has been bedridden for many years, and even has not been able to enter the imperial court to discuss politics. You …"

Actually, news of what happened to Xiao Yi Xiu had already spread far and wide within the borders of the Eastern Abyss. It wasn't as if Helian Xianfeng didn't know about it. But she only sneered, "Then what does it matter? When the time comes, this princess will bring him back to the Northern Chu and have the genius doctor that treated Big Brother Crown Prince treat him. He will definitely recover even more than before."

Gu Qingruo was secretly surprised. Only now did she remember that Helian Yu's injuries back then must have been extremely severe. To be able to recover until now, that genius doctor must not be an ordinary person. He was afraid that with Helian Peng's interference, Xiao Yi Xiu would be able to recover. Wouldn't that mean …?

"Princess, is that genius doctor really that powerful?"

"Of course."

"But... Should the princess not have so easily promised that she would be able to cure King Mo? "

"What do you mean?" Helian Shuanghua was stunned.

Gu Qingruo smiled, "If a person has a request, it will be extremely hard to obtain." If the Princess were to help him so easily, he would only feel grateful in his heart. However, if the princess were to use this as bait … Why should I worry about his refusal to give in? "

Helene frowned at her.

"If he doesn't want to be your prince consort in the Northern Chu, why would the princess bother so much for him?"

"He has a main wife, and with his unbending personality, he definitely won't be threatened."

Gu Qingruo didn't expect Helian Hua to know Xiao Yi so well. She laughed lightly, "It's true that he has a main wife, but what if he doesn't? Will there be one less obstacle for you? "Then, let's see how the princess will lure him back to the Northern Chu, then proceed step by step …"

"Let that bitch disappear? This princess does want to, but it's too difficult. " Helian Lie sighed lightly. He did not want to continue.

It was inconvenient for Gu Qingruo to be so straightforward. Seeing that she had changed the topic, she smiled and casually asked, "Did the princess sleep well? This Cheng Yang Inn is a place where the decorations are lacking and the environment is not quiet enough.

Helian Peng was startled. He touched his face and suddenly thought of last night's dream. His heart immediately turned sour and his face darkened.

Under Gu Qing Ruo's repeated questioning, Helian Shuang had no choice but to speak out his last few days of dreams.

The more Gu Qingruo heard, the more she felt that this matter wasn't as simple as it seemed. Her expression gradually turned cold.
