Chapter 581 It seems that the self I just saw was the real self.
Fu Sheng clearly saw that after she finished speaking, Huai Jin froze on the spot as if bitten by a poisonous snake.
His mouth seemed to be gagged by something invisible; his pupils trembled, and his lips turned pale.
Seeing him like this, Fu Sheng felt a sudden pang of pain in her heart, and then she abruptly came to her senses.
To say that one is "clear-headed" is not an accurate wording.
But she really couldn't find a better word to describe her current state.
Because that's really how it feels.
—It seems that her emotional outburst and out-of-control words just now should not have come from her mouth.
Given my usual rational and composed personality, I should never have said such venting words, especially to Huaijin.
But Fusheng also had a strange feeling.
It seems that the person I was just now was the real me, the true psychological state that should be presented after casting aside memories and the constraints of my image.
As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Sheng calmed down and left the Painting Immortal Clan without saying anything more.
Huaijin did not stop her when she left.
This was the first time such a fierce and unprecedented argument had broken out between her and Huaijin.
When this thought came to mind, Fu Sheng's brain went blank for a moment.
The idea came naturally, like an ingrained belief in her mind.
But... is it really that serious?
Fu Sheng couldn't explain where this strange feeling came from. She felt that there should have been a more intense argument between her and Huai Jin.
The reason for the argument doesn't seem to be related to the bloodshed in March.
But if it weren't for the blood in March, what else would Huaijin have argued with her about? And why would he have left Shenque alone?
Thinking this, Fu Sheng suddenly started to have a headache again. The pain was so intense that her brain almost exploded, and she almost lost her balance and fell to the ground while flying through the air.
The pain came on quickly and went away just as fast, like a warning. Once the pain subsided, Fu Sheng didn't think about it anymore and focused on returning to Shenque.
This time, Fu Sheng didn't spend a long time going to see Huai Jin; the round trip only took seven days.
Upon seeing Fu Sheng return, several ministers immediately came forward to greet him, with Elder He asking expectantly, "My Lord, have you found an antidote for the Life-Giving Gu?"
Facing the expectant gazes of the crowd, Fu Sheng felt somewhat embarrassed. Before leaving, she had confidently declared that she had a solution, but this was the final result.
She shook her head: "No."
The smiles on the faces of the immortal officials froze, and Elder Crane's eyes dimmed as he sighed, "Alas, it's normal that the Divine Lord hasn't found it; the antidote for the Life-Giving Gu is indeed too difficult to find..."
Huai Jin's abilities have never been made public, and none of the immortals and gods knew that Fu Sheng had gone out to find Huai Jin.
Fu Sheng listened to Elder He's words without explaining, but asked about the situation in the Immortal Realm during the past few days he had been away.
Upon learning that in the seven days since he left, another twenty or so alchemists and weapon craftsmen had died in the Immortal Realm, Fu Sheng felt even more depressed.
Without an antidote, immortals and gods afflicted by the Life-Giving Gu are like grasshoppers parasitized by horsehair worms; there is no way to save them except to quietly await their final death sentence.
Those alchemists and artifact crafters who had not taken the antidote were unsure whether they had been afflicted by the Life-Giving Gu. They were all filled with fear and anxiety, unsure whether death or tomorrow would come. They all began to make arrangements for their funerals. Some urgently passed on all their life's knowledge to their disciples, while others had already begun to reunite with their Daoist partners and children, enjoying what they believed to be their last moments.
Just when Fu Sheng thought that this was probably the only possible outcome, Huai Jin suddenly returned to Shenque.
