After Transmigration, I Snag a Stunning Bigwig as My Husband

Chapter 1189: Chapter 19: Journey to the Southern Border (Part 8)

Finding his daughter was Mr. Tao’s wish, as well as the task assigned to him by Wangu Mountain.

For so many years, Mr. Tao had always hoped to find his daughter, yet he was afraid to find her.

Because finding her would mean endless pursuit from Wangu Mountain.

Mr. Tao chose to live here, also wanting to tell his daughter that he was living well, without the need for concern.

Since she ran away back then at all costs, she should not show up again, not return anymore.

Mr. Tao always thought that his daughter would know he lived here and would send him a letter of peace, giving him comfort.

Yet after so many years, he hadn’t received a word.

Qin Hanhan couldn’t bear to tell him that before he moved here, her parents had already passed away.

Mr. Tao wanted Qin Hanhan to leave, also fearing her identity being exposed, leading Wangu Mountain to mistake that her mother had passed the Gu Raising Skill to her, causing her trouble.

Although Mr. Tao thought this wasn’t likely, Wangu Mountain would surely rather mistakenly kill a thousand than let one slip.

When Wangu Mountain let him leave the mountain back then, they also planted a Gu Worm in him, once the runaway Holy Daughter was found, they would take the lives of both father and son.

Qin Hanhan’s mother used Wangu Mountain’s ultimate skill to coerce them to release her father, while Wangu Mountain used Gu to make Qin Hanhan’s mother hesitate, if she tried again, her father would surely die.

After Mr. Tao was released, everyone had been at peace for many years.

Mr. Tao didn’t want Qin Hanhan entangled in the past events. Since she was married, she should stay in Daqi to take care of her husband and children, and never return to the Southern Border.

Qin Hanhan saw that Mr. Tao truly cared for her, even if he wasn’t her grandfather, she still recognized him in her heart.

But she came here for the Method of Gu Poison for the Unity Gu, she couldn’t return empty-handed.

After Qin Hanhan persistently pleaded, Mr. Tao finally spoke.

"The Unity Gu is like the previous Disguise Gu, only Wangu Mountain has it. If your mother were alive, she might know how to remove the Unity Gu."

Some poisons, only the Holy Daughter knew how to detoxify.

Or rather, only the Holy Daughter could detoxify.

To remove the Unity Gu, one must go to Wangu Mountain.

Wangu Mountain was filled with Gu Worms, Mr. Tao didn’t want his granddaughter to take that risk.

Qin Hanhan and Chu Shun discussed it and still decided to take a trip to Wangu Mountain.

It’s just that they didn’t know where Wangu Mountain was.

Though Wangu Mountain was famous, few knew of its location.

Many Hidden Guards were sent out to seek it, but they either didn’t return or couldn’t even find out where Wangu Mountain was, returning unsuccessfully.

In the Southern Border, many raised Gu, even using the Butterfly Attraction Gu might not help.

They couldn’t place their hopes on Wangu Mountain alone, so they kept inquiring about the Unity Gu along the way.

Previously people were sent to Beimo to ask where the Unity Gu was bought, but the person responsible for buying it had died, with no way to find out.

Coming out from the house, Qin Hanhan looked at the last glow of the sunset in the sky and said, "I always thought my father was a Gu-raising expert, I never expected my mother to be the master of masters."

She hadn’t even seen her mother raising a Gu.

This journey to find the Method of Gu Poison had unexpectedly brought the gain of finding her grandfather.

Qin Hanhan was internally immensely satisfied.

Though anxious to find the Method of Gu Poison to return to Daqi, since her grandfather was old, they still stayed with him for a few days in the small courtyard.

Mr. Tao advised Qin Hanhan to carefully read through the books on the shelf, as it would be very beneficial for her trip to Wangu Mountain.

Had he not feared arousing suspicion, he would have gone to Wangu Mountain with Qin Hanhan himself.

Realizing they were determined, Mr. Tao didn’t hide it from them and told them the location of Wangu Mountain, four hundred miles from here.

Regrettably, Mr. Tao thought that by not accompanying them, Qin Hanhan, being his granddaughter and the daughter of the former Holy Daughter, could keep it a secret.

This indeed could fool people but, unfortunately, it couldn’t fool the Holy Gu.

After bidding farewell to her grandfather, Qin Hanhan headed straight for Wangu Mountain. Eight days later, she reached the foot of Wangu Mountain.

The terrain of Wangu Mountain was treacherous, and venomous snakes were everywhere. If not for Qin Hanhan’s skill in using Gu and her reading of so many books about Gu Worms by the lakeside, just leading Chu Shun with Hidden Guards would have cost ten lives.

The Hidden Guards who didn’t find Wangu Mountain truly escaped with their lives.

An ordinary mountain could be traversed back and forth several times in a day, but Wangu Mountain... They set out early in the morning and reached the buildings perched at the mountain top by the next day at noon.

Without a guide, very few could come to Wangu Mountain alive.

The arrival of Qin Hanhan and her group was truly surprising.

And no one was more surprised than the Holy Daughter.

As Qin Hanhan stepped into Wangu Mountain, the Holy Daughter spat out a mouthful of blood.

At that time, the Holy Daughter was in a meeting with the elders, and her sudden vomiting of blood shocked everyone.

To know that the Holy Daughter had the Holy Gu inside her, making her immune to all poison.

Only the Holy Daughter knew the blood vomiting was caused by the Holy Gu.

The Holy Gu was tumbling inside, causing her breath to be unstable, hence the blood vomiting.

Since she assumed the position of the Holy Daughter, it was the first time the Holy Gu had been turbulent, making her chest feel tight and driving her to urgently find out what exactly happened.

She tried her best to suppress the Holy Gu, and after meeting Qin Hanhan and Chu Shun, she vomited blood again.

This time, she directly fainted after vomiting blood.

Everyone at Wangu Mountain looked at Qin Hanhan with hostility; why did this woman from Daqi cause their Holy Daughter to behave so abnormally?

Hmm.

Qin Hanhan’s attire from Daqi successfully fooled everyone.

Before they revealed their intentions upon reaching Wangu Mountain, they were already imprisoned in the Wangu Mountain dungeon.

Chu Shun, "...."

Qin Hanhan, "...."

Chu Shun looked at Qin Hanhan, "What happened?"

"I don’t know either," Qin Hanhan shook her head and said.

They successfully entered the mountain, and the people of Wangu Mountain treated them politely.

No one expected the Holy Daughter to vomit blood directly upon seeing her.

The Holy Daughter was helped back to her room, and the Holy Gu forced out of her body. As long as Qin Hanhan was in the Holy Mountain, the Holy Gu would not be peaceful.

Looking at the Holy Gu in the jar, the Holy Daughter had a bitter smile.

She didn’t expect that although the former Holy Daughter had been gone for so long, the Holy Gu still missed her.

For the twenty years she had raised the Holy Gu, it had never truly submitted to her.

But that girl—

Was not even very old, and was already married, yet why did the Holy Gu react so intensely to her?

The Holy Daughter, after adjusting her breath, went to the dungeon.

Qin Hanhan looked at her, and the Holy Daughter could feel the Holy Gu clashing in the bamboo tube.

Indeed, it was different upon seeing her.

The Holy Daughter scrutinized Qin Hanhan.

A suspicion surfaced in her mind.

She dismissed the others, looked at Qin Hanhan, and said, "Are you Qi Xue’s daughter?"

Qin Hanhan, "...."

Grandfather repeatedly warned her not to reveal her identity, yet how did someone guess it right away?

Qin Hanhan denied persistently.

But the shock in her eyes couldn’t escape the Holy Daughter’s notice. The Holy Daughter sneered, "It’s easy to verify."

She opened the bamboo tube, and the Holy Gu climbed out.

The Holy Gu was golden, completely different from ordinary Gu Worms, exuding an aura of nobility.

The Holy Gu crawled beside Qin Hanhan and directly entered her body.

It moved so fast that Chu Shun couldn’t stop it.

Chu Shun looked at Qin Hanhan and asked, "Are you okay?"

"Very comfortable," Qin Hanhan replied.

"...."

Qin Hanhan spoke her most direct feeling.

But to the Holy Daughter, it was exceptionally jarring.

She had never experienced any comfort while raising the Holy Gu for those twenty years!

Because the Holy Gu had always resisted her!

The Holy Gu recognized its master on the day the Holy Daughter assumed her position and birthed a small Holy Gu on the day of her death.

One Holy Daughter for one Holy Gu.

This Holy Gu was an exception; it had been forced out of the former Holy Daughter’s body, left with the Gu Raising Skill on the Holy Mountain.

She inherited the Holy Gu following the ceremony of assuming the Holy Daughter’s position, but unfortunately, the Holy Gu did not recognize her.

For so many years, she had lived too painfully.

Exhausted, she forced the Holy Gu out to raise separately, never expecting the Holy Gu not only recognized the former Holy Daughter but also recognized the former Holy Daughter’s daughter!

The Holy Daughter felt the urge to kill.

Just as she was about to act, someone came in.

The Holy Daughter turned to leave, Chu Shun clung to the prison door and said, "Hey, don’t leave yet."

"Quickly take that golden Gu Worm out of my wife’s body!"

Even if Qin Hanhan said it felt comfortable.

Chu Shun didn’t believe anything good would come to his wife.

Don’t accept pies falling from the sky.

The old man who came in looking for the Holy Daughter changed his face upon hearing this.

Golden Gu Worm?

Only the Holy Gu is golden!
