Chapter 144: Undoing the Curse
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
With a scream, a black fog rose above the butler’s head. In the end, the butler collapsed to the ground because of his weakness. Fortunately, the curse on his body was lifted.
Gu Yu helped the weak butler to the chair beside her to rest. Yunbao wiped the cold sweat on her head. This curse was really torturous. In order to remove the curse, Yunbao had exhausted a lot of energy in her body.
Purple Eye looked at Yunbao and then at Gu Teng, who was lying on the bed. She sighed secretly. “Sigh, looks like it’s fate!”
Yunbao and Gu Yu were confused. “What do you mean?” Although Gu Yu did not understand why Purple Eye was like this, he guessed that Purple Eye’s emotions were related to Gu Teng.
“If Yunbao hadn’t used up her energy just now, perhaps Gu Teng could still be saved. Although she hasn’t lived for long, it definitely won’t be a problem for her to live for three to five years. Now that Yunbao has used up a lot of her energy, I’m afraid there won’t be any excess energy to save her.”
“Then how long can Mommy live now?” Yunbao asked Purple Eye anxiously.
“Less than a year.” When Purple Eye said this, her heart was still very heavy. After all, Yunbao had just reunited with her mother, and now she had to face separation. It was really difficult to accept.
Yunbao hugged Gu Yu in fear. She was like an injured deer, seeking the comfort of her family.
Gu Yu hugged Yunbao in her arms and turned to look at Purple Eye sincerely. “May I ask if there’s any way to extend my sister’s lifespan?”
These words were within Purple Eye’s expectations. Purple Eye shook her head gently. “Gu Teng had been in a state of deep sleep before, so her body had been temporarily repaired. However, the consumption of her body during the period of waking up was twice as much as during the period of deep sleep. After all, energy is conserved. From the moment she woke up, she was not far from leaving this world.”
Xiao Jing, who had just arrived at the door, was stunned at the door when he heard Purple Eye’s explanation. Three seconds later, Xiao Jing came back to his senses. “Can you extend my life to her?”
The three of them looked at Xiao Jing at the door.
“Yes, but your life will be halved. Have you thought about it?” Purple Eye asked Xiao Jing for his opinion. After getting an affirmative answer, Purple Eye nodded.
“Then we will hold the life-prolonging ceremony in three days. In these three days, you have to go to the Soaring Cloud Sect. I need to recuperate for three days. At that time, I will naturally appear to help you. During these three days, you have to be careful of Mao Feng. He is a difficult opponent.” After saying that, Purple Eyes disappeared from the room.
Yunbao and the others did not dare to delay and immediately packed their luggage and left.
When Mao Feng returned and saw the empty house, his heart seemed to have become empty. After using the tracking technique, Mao Feng realized that
Yunbao and the others were actually heading towards the Soaring Cloud Sect.
The name Soaring Cloud Sect was an existence that Mao Feng could not get rid of. However, Gu Teng was going to the Soaring Cloud Sect. If he wanted to leave with Gu Teng, he had to go to the Soaring Cloud Sect.
This put Mao Feng in a dilemma. On one side was the shadow, and on the other side was his lover. No matter which one it was, Mao Feng could not let go. In the end, Mao Feng’s love for Gu Teng finally overcame the fear of the shadow in his heart. He called his subordinates and arranged for them to gather at the foot of the Soaring Cloud Sect.
On the other hand, Mao Feng was desperately chasing after Yunbao and the other three. However, he did not find any traces of them after chasing for a day. Mao Feng simply sped up and chased after the Soaring Cloud Sect.
Since he couldn’t find them, he would just wait for them at their destination.
As for Yunbao and the other three, they did not take the main road to the Soaring Cloud Sect. Instead, they took the small road in the village and took a long detour. This way, no matter how fast Mao Feng was, he would not be able to catch up to them.
It could save them a lot of trouble and also give Gu Teng some peace. After all, her body could not withstand the torture anymore. However, this way, they would arrive at the Soaring Cloud Sect half a day later.
“Fourth Uncle, can you tell me what kind of place the Soaring Cloud Sect is?” Yunbao was still a child after all. She was curious about all the unknown things.
“The Soaring Cloud Sect is a very beautiful place. No matter what the weather is, a sea of clouds will appear at the top of the mountain every morning. It’s as if you’re really standing in the sky and looking down at all living beings.” After saying that, Gu Yu looked at Yunbao’s expectant expression and reached out to stroke her long hair.. “When we get there, Fourth Uncle will bring you to take a look, okay?”
