The night was like mist, like gauze.
It brushed against Hua Lianyue's slender body.
Her complexion was slightly pale, and she coughed twice, her handkerchief bearing bright red blood. Yet, she felt the piercing cold diminish greatly, replaced by a faint warmth.
Spreading from her chest, in all directions.
It was the Red Dust Gu within her body.
Although it was still releasing the aura of Red Dust, it no longer incessantly harmed her body as before.
It was as her master had said, the Red Dust Gu was an ancient gu insect, indeed mysterious and powerful.
But it also brought great harm to oneself.
This damage originated from the spirit and soul, then spread from the spirit to the limbs. Ordinary healing pills and various secret techniques were completely unable to repair it.
One could only find another ancient gu insect, the Heavenly Gu.
The Heavenly Gu came from this world, while the Red Dust Gu came from the human realm.
Both were quite extreme.
