Dong Huiying turned the fourth King Gu insect into medicine pills and turned back to Liang Zhichen, saying, "I need to step out for a bit." The man was wiping the table with a rag, and upon hearing her words, he paused slightly before smiling and responding, "Okay, come back soon." She pushed the door open and left, unaware that after her departure, the man slowly set down the cloth in his hands with his eyebrows knotted in a tight frown. Why haven’t you come back yet? His thin lips were pressed into a straight line, and afterward, he quietly followed behind the young girl. He saw the girl darting through the forest and soon entering a cave. She had lived here before and was very familiar with everything, and relying on her great strength, she moved a large rock to block the entrance of the cave. After finishing these tasks, she took the Gu Pills made from the King Gu insect. Before long, the cave was filled with chaotic noises; the girl was screaming in agony, and there were occasional clangs and bangs that made dust and fragments of soil fall in showers. Liang Zhichen stood silently outside the cave, his back stiff as he gradually clenched his fists, nails digging into his palms. This feeling of powerlessness was not new to him. When she suffered from the backlash of the Devouring God Gu, there was nothing he could do. This feeling was like those endless nights, watching his younger brother Shu Yu cough until he was hoarse, his body deteriorating, his breath growing weaker by the day, and yet he was powerless, unable to do anything but wait, endure, and only watch, like an outsider. Yet the fine, prickling pain was spreading in his heart; he slowly raised his head to look at the clear blue sky, but inside, his heart was already filled with gloom. The shouts, roars, and thumping sounds coming from the cave gave him a clear picture of the pain she was enduring, and it tugged at his heart with each thud. He felt slightly short of breath, this emotion was too oppressive. He may have never truly understood her before, and he never knew, beneath the ugliness, cruelty, ferocity, and malice they saw, what she was actually bearing. She had done bad things, but she herself was also suffering, wasn’t she? "Heh..." He suddenly covered his face, a few soft chuckles escaping his lips, his heart filled with desolation and his spirits deflated. Just then, a sudden loud boom came from inside the cave. Liang Zhichen was startled. As he looked toward the cave, he saw that it had collapsed. His face changed drastically—"Baobao!!" Like a gust of wind, he didn’t even have time to think, his body acting before his will. He rushed toward the collapsed cave, but the entrance was blocked by rocks. Desperate, he looked around in a panic, seeking anything that might serve as a tool. He suddenly charged toward a nearby tree and broke off a branch as thick as a human arm, using it as a lever. But the rock was too heavy; as he pressed the wooden lever down, it snapped, but the boulder remained immovable. "I was wrong, it’s all my fault..." I shouldn’t have let her come here alone! He regretted as he scrambled through the rubble. His palms were rubbed raw and bleeding as he moved some rocks, anxiously looking inside. The cave was pitch-black, but as sunlight swept into the cave, he could vaguely see a delicate figure curled up in a small corner. She seemed to have sustained some injuries and was lying on the ground with her eyes closed. He bit his lip hard and hurriedly continued to move the nearby debris...
