Chapter 90 Gu Yumian's Determination
"Why do you suddenly suspect me and the prince?" Ji Li looked at Gu Yumian and asked softly.

"These days, I searched around for the cause of elder brother's death, and found that you and the prince were prefectural-level masters in the entire dynasty at that time. Only you had the strength to kill my elder brother. Naturally, I have to ask." Gu Yumian said in a deep voice.

"Don't worry, I will never deal with your Gu family, this is my promise to you." Ji Li said hastily.

"If your promise is useful, then we can't get to where we are today, and I won't talk nonsense with you, I'm here today to ask you to do alchemy to heal the wounds on the faces of my two nieces. "Gu Yumian didn't want to continue talking with Ji Li, she was already very impatient.

"Okay, let them enter the palace. I will make alchemy for them after I personally see the doctor." Ji Li nodded quickly, as if Gu Yumian had something to ask of him, and he seemed very happy.

"By the way, is it possible for a person whose spiritual root has been shattered to recover?" Gu Yumian asked tentatively.

"You asked for that little genius of your Gu family, right? To be honest, if you hadn't stopped me, she would have been the first apprentice I wanted to take in. It's a pity that you, an aunt, didn't agree. That little girl is not only the second High-grade spiritual root, talented, intelligent and thorough, is an excellent talent in martial arts, and can go very far in martial arts, even I can't match it, but it's a pity...she has been crippled, the spirit The roots have been shattered, and there is almost no possibility of recovery in this life." Ji Li shook his head and said.

"Almost none? What does this mean? Is there any other way?" Gu Yumian hurriedly asked.

"Seeing how nervous you are about her, it can be seen how important this little girl is to you. If I have a way, I will help, but I can't do anything. Maybe... there is still a place in this world that can heal her broken spiritual root, Let her embark on the path of martial arts again." Ji Liruo pointed out.

"Where? Where?" Gu Yumian asked hastily.

"Xuantianzong!" Ji Li said in a low voice.

Gu Yumian was startled when he heard the words, then nodded, "I see."

"However, those people in Xuantianzong's eyes are higher than the top. I'm afraid they don't want to heal your little niece. In order to send the crown prince to Xuantianzong, the emperor paid a great price, but in the end they were sent down the mountain. If your little niece has not lost her spirit root, she can become a disciple of the Xuantian Sect, but now she has become a useless person, and it is impossible for them to help her restore her spirit root." Ji Li shook his head and said.

"Of course I have my own way, so I won't bother the national teacher." After Gu Yumian finished speaking, she planned to leave.

"What way?" Ji Li stepped forward and asked.

"You want to know? Then I'll tell you." Gu Yumian looked at him, his face full of sarcasm: "I accidentally befriended the seventh elder of Xuantian Sect last year, and he even sent someone to propose marriage to me, I... …”

Before Gu Yumian finished speaking, Ji Li said excitedly: "You are talking about that old pervert Bei Mingfeng, he is the scum of Xuantian Sect, he has many wives and concubines, and is often reprimanded by Xuantian Sect Master, that old guy The strength is not high, if it is not because he is the suzerain's younger brother, how can he sit on the position of elder? He is more than 100 years old this year, how old are you? Marrying him, you are crazy!"

"Am I crazy? Maybe I am. For my only niece, I, Gu Yumian, will go all out. As long as I can recast her spiritual root and restore her talent, I will do anything." A gleam of determination flashed in Gu Yumian's eyes , said in a deep voice.

Except for Ji Li, she didn't tell anyone about this matter, not even her mother.

Although mother hoped that she would climb high and marry a genius disciple of Xuantianzong, she definitely didn't want to be the concubine of that kind of elder elder.

She didn't have this thought before, so when that old guy sent someone to propose marriage, she refused, but they didn't force her, and they didn't take her back to Xuantianzong by force.

It's just... just now, after hearing from Ji Li that her family's Li Sheng still has the possibility of recasting her spiritual roots, she was very moved.

Anyway, she has long since given up on her children's affair. It doesn't matter if she marries or not, so she might as well create a future for her family, Li Shengbo, so... the dead elder brother should also rest in peace under Jiuquan Alright.

The more Gu Yumian thought about it, the more she felt that she should do this.

"No! I know that I was sorry for you first and hurt you, but you can't marry this old man just because of this, Yumian, you are provoking me on purpose, right?" Ji Li grabbed Gu Yumian's hand hands, very excitedly said.

"Master Daguo is overwhelmed. You and I have made an agreement at the beginning, and we will have nothing to do with marriage in the future. I came here today to ask you for help. You promised me that you would do three things for me, Gu Yumian. Outside, there is nothing else." After Gu Yumian finished speaking, she got up and walked out, as if she didn't want to stay for a while.

Although the old man of Xuantianzong made her feel disgusted, as long as she could cure her precious niece and let her recast her spiritual roots, she would really go all out.

Gu Yumian's temperament is originally strong, and he is a person who can afford to let go. Once a decision is made, it will be put into action.

Gu Xiaoxiao, who was far away by the Jiao River, didn't know that her aunt would marry a 100-year-old man who was still lustful because of her. At this moment, she had just arrived in the vermilion lacquered house that was agreed upon.

Although the dilapidated house looks very dilapidated from the outside, with mottled red paint on the walls, it looks particularly oozy, but inside, there are all tables, chairs, benches and stools, not stained with dust, and it is quite clean. There are even teapots, What about the teacup, but the tea in the teapot is already cold.

Gu Xiaoxiao sat for a while, but no one came in, nor did she find any notes in the house, so she took off the small bundle on her back and opened it to let her little milk dog breathe.

"Little Xiangzhu, you must have been suffocated along the way." Gu Xiaoxiao gently rubbed the little guy's head, feeling a little helpless in her heart, this little guy only eats and sleeps, it's really amazing.

Taking out the sheepskin water bag that she carried with her, Gu Xiaoxiao drank a few sips of spiritual spring water to quench her thirst, then took out a smaller sheepskin water bag, and fed the puppy two sips.

Just when she was considering whether to take out the two fruits and eat them, she suddenly felt a slight change.

Gu Xiaoxiao stared at the door, and after about a quarter of an hour, she heard the sound of someone talking and footsteps.

A smile appeared on her face. Since her skill multiplied, she really has "smart eyes and ears", and can feel movement from far away, so she is not afraid of people hiding by her side and discovering her secrets.

"Brother Dao, I don't know if the Ye family has so much money to redeem people, but the boss has said that if no one from the Ye family comes these days, we will kill Ye Xiuhe and throw him into the Jiao River to feed the fish. To avoid having to keep him, trouble!" A tall man said as he walked outside the house.
