"Hong Mei, you’re really amazing!"
Hearing this, Hong Mei gently raised her chin.
"I told you long ago, I’m an expert in Disguise Skill, do you believe it now?"
"We believe it completely, you’re simply incredible!"
Hong Mei smiled and handed a copper mirror to Luochuan.
"Take a look, see if you’re satisfied. If not, we can make some adjustments."
Luochuan took the copper mirror and finally saw himself in it.
Seeing the completely unfamiliar face, he found it hard to believe and even touched it with his hand.
"There’s really no flaw at all, it’s simply superb."
"This Human Skin Mask can last for a year. Within a year, you can live with this appearance. Of course, if you want to revert to your original face, I can help you anytime and anywhere, ensuring it’s exactly the same as before, without any effect."
With Hong Mei’s words, Luochuan breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thank you. Let’s first go find my father and Saint Ya. I don’t want to appear before them with my real face. This is good. We’ll talk about it after we finish resolving the matter."
"No problem, whenever you wish to return to your original face, just tell me."
After speaking, Hong Mei turned her gaze to Gu Sheng.
"Didn’t you say after helping Luochuan with his face, you’d accompany me shopping? Shall we go now?"
Gu Sheng nodded, and Hong Mei couldn’t wait to pull him along as they headed out.
Bai Yu and Lan Yao laughed from behind, and Hong Mei’s face blushed a little again.
On the street, the two rarely relaxed, Hong Mei’s big eyes eagerly looked around, not wanting to miss a single stall.
Gu Sheng followed her, continuously gripping a purse, buying everything she laid eyes on. As they walked, Gu Sheng’s hands were almost full.
It was only when Hong Mei turned her head that she noticed the items in his hands, surprising her immensely.
"Gu Sheng, when did you buy so much stuff?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Sheng couldn’t help but laugh.
"These are all the things you looked at just now; I bought them all."
"What? You bought everything I looked at?"
"Yes, I figured everything you looked at must be something you like, so I bought them."
Listening to him, Hong Mei felt deeply touched.
"Gu Sheng, thank you."
"No need to be so formal. Is there anything else you want to buy? Let’s continue shopping."
Seeing both his hands full of stuff, Hong Mei couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
"More shopping? Can you even carry more?"
"No worries, I can still..."
Before Gu Sheng could finish his sentence, a shadow suddenly flitted past behind Hong Mei. Startled, he quickly advanced, but was a step slower than the figure.
In a flash, a dagger mercilessly stabbed into Hong Mei’s waist!
As the blood splattered, Gu Sheng’s eyes turned red with anger.
"Ling Xiao Master, watch me take your life!"
Drawing out the Fire Spirit Dagger, Gu Sheng flew forward, his aura unleashed completely, not caring about the eyes of those around, viciously charging at Ling Xiao Master.
Seeing his menacing stance, Ling Xiao Master tried to use Hong Mei as a shield. However, Hong Mei wasn’t so easily manipulated. She endured the pain in her waist, spun her body, and instantly broke free from Ling Xiao Master’s grip.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Gu Sheng quickly advanced, with the virgin Fire Spirit Dagger stabbing forward fiercely, straight towards Ling Xiao Master’s heart!
Sensing the Spiritual Energy erupting from him, Ling Xiao Master’s complexion changed, and he swiftly stepped back, barely dodging Gu Sheng’s attack.
Seeing his uneasy stance, Gu Sheng quickly twisted his body, smashing a palm directly onto Ling Xiao Master’s back!
Ling Xiao Master instantly spurted a mouthful of blood, his whole body flying several meters forward.
Gu Sheng did not let him go, leaping forward once more, wielding the Fire Spirit Dagger before him.
Gu Sheng aimed to step on his wrist, but he dodged, only stepping on his fingers.
Without hesitation, with a swift motion, Gu Sheng’s Fire Spirit Dagger chopped downward, slicing off two of his fingers!
"Don’t think too much."
Quickly returning, Gu Sheng directly kicked open Lan Yao’s door.
Lan Yao and Bai Yu were talking, startled by the sudden entrance.
Just as Lan Yao was about to curse, Bai Yu quickly saw the blood stains on them.
"Gu Sheng, what’s wrong with you? Why is there so much blood?"
Upon hearing this, Lan Yao realized that as soon as they entered, the room was filled with a bloody smell!
"What happened? Weren’t you out shopping? How did Hong Mei get injured like this?"
"Ambushed by Ling Xiao Master."
As soon as Gu Sheng spoke those words, everyone’s expressions changed dramatically.
Lan Yao directly drew his sword, attempting to walk out angrily.
Seeing him, Bai Yu quickly stopped him.
"Can you not be so impulsive! Gu Sheng and Hong Mei are hurt. You just move without knowing the whole story. Could you at least ask about the situation first?"
As Lan Yao turned back, Gu Sheng said while drawing silver needles: "Ling Xiao Master bribed some ordinary people to create trouble, and he has already fled in the chaos. Now’s not the time to catch him. Give me all the Elixir Pills you have."
Upon hearing this, everyone quickly rummaged through their pockets, handing all elixirs to Gu Sheng.
After receiving the elixirs, Gu Sheng pointed to the door.
"Wait outside, don’t act rashly."
Understanding his intentions, they quickly exited.
Gu Sheng selected from the elixirs left by the group, finally keeping one from Lan Yao and fed it to Hong Mei.
"Let me heal your injury."
Hong Mei nodded but made no move.
Gu Sheng pondered for a moment, then decisively reached out to undo her bloodstained clothes.
Feeling his actions, a bit of blush appeared on Hong Mei’s pale face. Shyly, she turned her head aside as her clothes fell to the ground due to his actions.
