  After saying that, Seven Star had no mind for anything else and hurriedly said to Nameless Nie, “I don’t need a discount—I’ll buy it at full price. Just give me the antidote immediately!”


  “You aren’t allowed to buy it! I won’t take it even if you buy it!” Ye Wanwan shouted.

  “Ah, Sis Feng, enough already. If you don’t take the antidote… how can you cure the gu? That prideful way of curing the gu you want is impossible, alright?! You might even die faster!”


  “I won’t!”


  The courtyard fell into a stalemate until First Elder’s eyes shifted and he idly said, “My esteemed President, if you don’t take the antidote, Lord Asura will also die. Death is as heavy as Mount Tai but also as light as a goose feather. Can you bear to watch a beautiful man die with you?”


  Ye Wanwan was startled.

  That’s right. After this love gu takes effect, both people will die together.

  And they will die very miserably—blood flowing out of all crevices and ulcers covering their mouths…


  There were less than two hours remaining. With Si Yehan’s terrible personality, if she waited for him to be willing to cure the poison with her, perhaps the weeds at their graves would be as tall as a person by then.

  Third Elder frantically chimed in: “President, look at a great beauty as good-looking as Lord Asura. Can you bear to let him die so miserably?”


  “That’s right, that’s right…” Big Dipper added.

  Ye Wanwan patted the school monument in her arms, and turmoil enveloped her face for three seconds before she finally acquiesced. “Nameless Nie, give me the antidote.”


  This is great!

  They really had to pinpoint Sis Feng’s weakness!

  Lin Que also relaxed behind the tree. “Good, good. This girl is finally willing to take the medicine. Everything would’ve been fine if she took it long ago…”


  On the other side, after Ye Wanwan relented, Nameless Nie swiftly dug out the antidote and handed it to her.

  Ye Wanwan accepted a small, jade-green bottle and tipped out an ivory-white object in the shape of a pill. She seriously said to Nameless Nie, “You said 50% off!”


  Nameless Nie face-palmed. “My good sister, you’re still bargaining with me at a time like this?!”


  “Tell me, will you sell it 50% off or not?!”


  Ye Wanwan wore a stern expression, looking very much like she would toss her life away if he didn’t agree.

  Nameless Nie felt like he’d met his match for the first time in his life. “Yes, I’ll sell it! I’ll sell it at 50% off to you!”


  Only then was Ye Wanwan satisfied and grudgingly take the antidote.

  Was there anyone whose life was more tragic than her?

  She’d degenerated to the point of needing to take an antidote…


  Seconds and minutes went by…


  “Sis Feng, how do you feel?” Seven Star anxiously asked. Other people also worriedly observed Ye Wanwan’s reaction.

  Nameless Nie relaxedly clapped his chest. “Ay, don’t worry! Everything will definitely be cured after taking my antidote! The gu will be cured within one minute!”


  Seven Star glanced at the time on his phone.

  This minute passed very fast but it was also as slow as a light-year.

  Ye Wanwan sat in her chair, silently waiting for the antidote to take effect.

  Soon, it was about time.

  Nameless Nie asked with a grin, “How do you feel, sister? Is it a lot better? Do you feel a lot clearer? Are the red lines all gone?”


  Ye Wanwan was silent for a dozen or so seconds…


  “Nameless Nie, are you freaking kidding me?!” Ye Wanwan felt her head was about to explode and veins pulsed on her forehead. “Clear my a**! Thoughts of him dominate my mind still!”


  Was this “him” referring to… Lord Asura?

  Or that Vinegar Factory Owner?

  Or that Patriarch of the Si family?

  Big Dipper was very befuddled.

  Chapter 2006: Lord Asura is pure of heart and barren of desires?

  As Ye Wanwan said that, she pulled up her sleeves and revealed the bloody lines that sprawled all over her body in a more terrifying manner. “Also, tell me—you think this is the bloody lines disappearing? I’m about to turn into a bloody person!”


  Big Dipper stared at Ye Wanwan’s wrist, dumbstruck. “Sh*t, Sis Feng! What’s going on? One minute has passed though?! Why’s it more serious?!”


  More red lines had appeared on Ye Wanwan’s body than before, and they were a deeper red than earlier; they were so red that it looked like blood would start dripping at any second.

  The other people also became anxious and started inquiring. “What’s going on?! Didn’t you say it’d cure everything?!”


  Nameless Nie cautiously took a step back. “Wait, no, this isn’t logical! Why is it useless? Dead Man said the gu insect would definitely die within a minute and all the bloody lines would be erased!”


  Ye Wanwan was furious. “Logical your a**! This thingy was illogical to begin with! So does your lousy antidote work or not?!”


  “Just what in the world is going on now?” Seven Star asked.

  Nameless Nie started, “Ahem… well… maybe… probably… perhaps… the antidote… isn’t… effective…”


  “How can the antidote be ineffective?” Seven Star pressed.

  “Well, since the mutually-in-love gu mutated… it actually isn’t improbable for… the antidote to also be ineffective…” Nameless Nie answered.

  “…” Ye Wanwan shouldn’t have depended on this idiot, Nameless Nie, to be reliable!

  Big Dipper was dumbfounded. “So what the heck should we do now?”


  Nameless Nie weakly said, “Now… now there’s clearly only one method left!”


  “What method?” Seven Star asked.

  “Find the carrier of the child gu to cure the gu…” Nameless Nie answered.

  Seven Star: “…”


  Big Dipper: “…”


  First Elder, Third Elder, and the other Fearless Alliance members: “…”


  Find the carrier of the child gu…? Find… Lord Asura to… cure the gu?

  “Find Lord Asura to cure to gu? Then isn’t Sis Feng dead for sure?!” Big Dipper blurted out.

  Seven Star also looked extremely unwell, and only sheer willpower allowed him to stop himself from erupting. He turned to Nameless Nie and asked, “If the gu poison takes effect, what would Lord Asura’s symptoms be?”


  Nameless Nie thought about it before responding, “The gu poison will amplify a person’s inner desires and the reaction would be more significant the more deeply the carrier loves someone. There would also be more bloody lines and the color would be darker too. Of course, if Lord Asura is pure of heart and barren of desires and doesn’t like anyone, then he wouldn’t show any symptoms when it takes effect.”


  Realization dawned on Big Dipper. “Sh*t! No wonder Lord Asura didn’t have any reaction earlier! I was thinking that it was impossible! Speaking of which, isn’t it a bit tragic that Lord Asura hasn’t done anything but has to die as well?”


  If you don’t like me and don’t get together with me, then you have to die. This love gu was truly perverse.

  “Then is it possible that Lord Asura obtained an antidote himself and cured the gu, so our President is also fine? After all, Asura has more means than us, so there’s no way they would allow their Lord Asura to die,” Seven Star said with a last trace of hope.

  Nameless Nie explained, “Currently, you can only cure the gu by killing the mother gu, but we can’t eliminate the possibility that an antidote to kill the child gu has been developed.

  “However, the love gu has a special trait. If the mother gu dies, the child gu will also die, and both people’s poison will be cured. However, if the child gu dies, the mother gu won’t die.

  “Hence, if Lord Asura got his hands on an antidote that could kill the child gu inside of him, Lord Asura would be fine, but your President… she’ll die for sure.”


  Big Dipper was stupefied. “Sh*t… then aren’t we f*cked?! Lord Asura’s child gu is probably cured already, which is why they aren’t worried in the slightest!”
