Chapter 394: It Doesn't Have to Take My Life

394. Chapter 394: It Doesn't Have to Take My Life

They listened to Hao Meiyu finish speaking.

Yin Li looked at her and said, "Grandma, don't tell Sister Qiao Sheng and them yet; I'll think about it first."

She was somewhat afraid that Shi Lin's life would be exchanged one for one.

If it really were so.

Qiao Sheng probably won't survive on her own.

She wants to save her, not harm them.

She thought for a while.

Yin Li asked Hao Meiyu to help Qiao Sheng first control the pest worm inside her body, and she called Shi Lin aside to speak: "Brother Shi Lin, Old Nan can dispel the pest in Sister Qiao Sheng's body, but…"

She stopped mid‑sentence.

Shi Lin immediately pressed, "But what, but—?"

Yin Li looked at Shi Lin and said, "This gu is not ordinary; to dispel it, you can only transfer the gu, which means a life for a life."

What!

Shi Lin hasn't come to his senses yet.

Yin Li continued, "The person whose life is exchanged must be willing; otherwise it cannot be done."

Her words had just fallen.

Shi Lin said, "Transfer the gu into my body; I'm strong, nothing will happen…"

Even if he dies, he still won't let Qiao Sheng be harmed.

Yin Li had guessed early that he would do this.

She spoke out, "No, you can't; this gu demands a life. If you use your life to save Sister Qiao Sheng, do you think she'll accept it when she knows?"

"Don't tell her."

Shi Lin said without a second thought.

Yin Li didn't agree.

Shi Lin bypassed her and went straight to Hao Meiyu.

"Grandma Hao, please help contact Old Nan and have him transfer the gu from Qiao Sheng onto me. Once it's done, I will definitely not shortchange him."

Hao Meiyu frowned, "Don't you know this pest will take a life?"

How much does he like Qiao Sheng?

Shi Lin replied, "I know, but my life is sturdy; it doesn't necessarily have to take my life."

"You…"

Hao Meiyu was just about to say a few words to him.

Shi Lin continued, "If this gu really takes my life, then it's my life; I won't blame anyone. No matter what, I will absolutely not let Qiao Sheng die before me."

Hao Meiyu didn't agree for the moment.

A few days passed.

Qiao Sheng's condition grew more irritable; even though she occasionally drank the spring water, it still didn't improve her state.

It can now be basically confirmed that this Spirit Spring Water cannot dissolve the gu in her body, only soothe it.

Because the gu in her body has become more irritable than before.

Therefore.

Now she is either drowsy or nauseous and dizzy.

Shi Lin couldn't sit still and again turned to Hao Meiyu for help.

Hao Meiyu said, "I have already sent a letter to Nan Xin; now we can only wait."

Another few days passed.

An Yi and the others arrived.

As soon as they arrived, they inquired about Qiao Sheng's condition.

Shi Lin didn't tell them the truth, nor that someone could already dispel the gu.

He gave a faint smile and said, "It's already being dispelled; it won't be long before it improves. You don't need to stay here; you can return. As long as I'm here, it's fine."

They came and immediately drove them away?

An Yi and the others always felt something was off.

They left, but not long after they turned back and returned.

They took a covert glance.

Qiao Sheng's condition didn't look resolved at all; it was clearly more severe.

Clearly not like that.

Why does their master say that?

An Yi and the others didn't understand at all.

An Liu decided to investigate covertly; he observed and then leapt to block Yin Li's way.

His sudden appearance startled Yin Li.

"You…"

An Liu, speaking at a rapid pace, said, "My name is An Liu, my master is Shi Lin. I would like to ask you, how is our young lady doing now?"
