Liang Xiong looked at Liang Fei with relief, then turned back to Ye Qingchen and asked, "May I ask, Mr. Chen, what exactly do the Gu worms in my wife's body do once they have entered?"
Ye Qingchen pondered for a moment before replying, "Leader Liang, these worms are extremely vicious. Once they enter a person's body, they take root in the meridians and continuously sap the host's Essence Blood and Yang energy. Eventually, the host will be tortured to death."
Hearing this, Liang Xiong was outraged. Thinking of the torment Xiao Ruoli must have endured, his heart ached for her.
Ye Qingchen continued, "Leader Liang, the person who placed the Gu in your esteemed wife must be someone extremely close to her. Forgive my frankness, but it would be best for you to investigate those around you."
Liang Xiong nodded thoughtfully, already suspecting who might have committed such an act. At that moment, the other Pill Kings in the room approached Ye Qingchen, bowing to apologize.
