Chapter 446: Chapter 445: Using Gu to Overcome Gu

"Why? Lin Tian is not a Gu Cultivator, how can he remove Gu?" Miss did not understand at all, and asked.

She felt that Lin Tian was an outsider to the art of Gu, and having him remove such a dangerous Soul-devouring Gu was no different from sending him to his death.

After thinking it over, she felt it was inappropriate and domineeringly added, "Lin Tian doesn’t understand Gu, and if he is to risk his life to remove it, then let Mr. Qi go die!"

Miss could actually say something so touching, though coldly, but Lin Tian found Miss extremely charming at that moment.

He cheekily winked at Miss, whose pretty face blushed, feeling that Lin Tian’s gaze seemed electrifying, her heart pounding several times.

"Granny Li, you and Miss Yueyue are both Gu Cultivators, why don’t you do it yourselves? Is it because you lack confidence in your own Gu skills, or is it because you lack confidence in your Gu God? The other party is the bad guy; the Gu God should be on your side, right?" Lin Tian found Li Qingyun’s attitude strange, so he spoke provocatively.

Li Qingyun’s expression still didn’t change, but Li Yue glared at him with raised eyebrows, wanting to argue with Lin Tian, but was stopped by Li Qingyun.

"Mr. Lin, I am old and lack the strength to deal with such powerful Gu. Yueyue is still young and doesn’t have enough experience," Li Qingyun said calmly.

Old? And you dare to say that? With your looks and figure, you could easily seduce men in their early twenties, Lin Tian thought to himself, speechlessly questioning the heavens.

"Perhaps Granny Li could begin by explaining how to remove the Gu?" Lin Tian said.

"Removing the Gu is simple, it’s about using Gu to overcome Gu," Li Qingyun explained. "You implant a Soul-devouring Gu into the body of the Gu Remover. When the two infected individuals come within a certain range of each other, the Soul-devouring Gu in them will sense each other. Driven by instinct to devour its own kind to evolve, this instinct is unstoppable even by the Gu Cultivator, so the Soul-devouring Gu will leave the host’s body, and the Gu Remover can take the opportunity to destroy it."

Damn it, how is that simple? Lin Tian really wanted to spit in her face.

"What if the removal is not successful? Won’t the Soul-devouring Gu in the body of the remover remain?" Miss also queried.

Li Qingyun simply nodded, admitting to this statement: "If you do not wish for Mr. Lin to remove the Gu, you could do it yourself."

"I agree," Lin Tian surprisingly accepted the challenge, beyond everyone’s expectations.

"Lin Tian, you..." Miss was very anxious.

Professor Xue and Sang Lin also came forward to persuade, emphasizing that this was not a joke. Using oneself as a tripod furnace for concocting Soul-devouring Gu was an irreversible and immensely dangerous process. Li Yue unexpectedly gave Lin Tian a glance, unable to believe that this lecherous man had such great courage.

But Lin Tian gestured for them to stop speaking and then turned to Li Qingyun, "Tell me, what should I do?"

"What you need to do is very simple, just give me a drop of blood, although we should talk about the compensation first," Li Qingyun smiled, appearing more like a businessperson at that moment.

"How much compensation do you need? Just name your price," Lin Tian said boldly, but his next sentence made everyone roll their eyes: "But if it’s too much, I might not be able to afford it."

Li Qingyun shook her head, saying, "I do not need any money, but I know that both of you are Ancient Martial Artists. I just need three drops of blood from each of you, the blood of an Ancient Martial Artist to feed my natal Gu will be excellent."

Gu Cultivators are indeed strange, using human blood to feed Gu daily, enough to give anyone goosebumps.

But what Li Qingyun didn’t know was that Lin Tian’s blood was zombie blood, hardly something a mere Gu could withstand.

"Granny Li, about this... drawing blood might be a bit problematic," Lin Tian said, touching his nose.

"What’s the problem?" Li Qingyun asked, puzzled.

"Ordinary swords and knives cannot cut through my skin," Lin Tian stated truthfully.

Upon hearing this, Li Qingyun laughed, exchanging a glance with Li Yue. Li Yue then turned and walked into the dark door they had visited earlier. When she came back, she was carrying a tray with a small porcelain bowl and a delicate curved knife on it.

The handle of the curved knife was golden, adorned with exquisite patterns, and the blade was bright, with beautiful cloud patterns on it, looking like flowing water under the light.

"What a fine knife!" Lin Tian could tell just by looking at the cloud patterns on the blade that the craftsmanship of this curved knife was outstanding. Without a doubt, it was a treasure capable of slicing through iron as if it were mud.

As if to prove Lin Tian’s words, Li Yue pulled out a dagger from behind her waist, then picked up the curved knife and chopped down at the dagger. With a clang, the dagger broke cleanly in two, its fractured surface smooth, truly slicing through iron as through mud.

She smiled proudly at Lin Tian, as if to say, even if you have skin of brass and bones of steel, I can still cut through.

"Come on then!" Lin Tian stretched out his hand and generously said, knowing she wouldn’t be satisfied until she tried.

Li Yue approached Lin Tian with the tray and unhesitatingly used the curved knife to cut at his wrist; from the way she wielded the knife, Lin Tian felt this young lady was avenging their previous encounter.

But the result astounded everyone because the sharp curved knife did not cut through Lin Tian’s skin, not even leaving a mark.

"You..." Li Qingyun and her granddaughter were stunned.

This dagger was a family heirloom that had never failed to cut through anything they faced, always severing with a single strike. But now, it couldn’t even cut through flesh and blood—what was going on?

Professor Xue and Sang Lin couldn’t believe it either. They thought Lin Tian was just an outstanding young man, but now he seemed far from simple. Only Xiao Manxue remained calm; she was the most familiar with Lin Tian’s skills; impenetrable to blades and spears, only Sword Qi could harm him.

"Let me try!" Li Qingyun said, frowning, unable to remain calm any longer.

She took the curved knife, and with a swift cut, she demonstrated remarkable speed, yet her control of the angle was so precise that only the edge of the blade skimmed by.

To Xiao Manxue, a master of the sword, this skill with the knife was abundantly clear.

As the blade passed, Li Qingyun and the others looked again at Lin Tian’s wrist, which still bore no mark whatsoever.

"What kind of skill have you cultivated?" Li Qingyun blurted out.

"Sect secret!" Lin Tian used the same excuse again.

However, in the eyes of Li Qingyun and her granddaughter, Lin Tian suddenly became shrouded in mystery.

"With no blood to take, this will be troublesome. I can’t use your essence blood to craft the Gu, which means you won’t be able to remove the Gu! Originally, I could have obtained two Soul-devouring Gu and helped you make medicine to become immune to the Soul-devouring Gu, but now that’s uncertain." Li Qingyun spoke no longer of rewards since even removing the Gu might be out of the question now.

Making medicine to become immune to the Soul-devouring Gu would definitely be the greatest help for the Xiao Family! Miss’s eyes lit up, then her expression turned resolute.

She calmly said, "Place the Gu on me instead, as Japan’s final target is undoubtedly the Xiao Family; it is my responsibility to bear."

"Miss, have you forgotten what I said?" Lin Tian replied with a slight smile. "I said I would dedicate myself to you, Second Miss, and the Xiao family. So, even if I have to kill every Japanese and become a Demon King, I will not let you personally test the Gu!"

Yet, everyone could feel it—his presence exuded a terrifying Evil Qi that made their skin crawl.
