The Evil King's Favorite: The Princess Is Too Cruel

"This is the Soul Devouring Gu."

A gentle voice suddenly sounded behind her. Su Qingning turned around and saw that her master Wuji had come out of the colorful glass gourd at some point and floated silently behind her.

"Soul-eating Gu?"

Su Qingning frowned slightly. She knew from the moment she heard these three words that they were not good things.

"Master, what is the Soul-Eating Gu?" Su Qingning asked curiously.

"Soul Devouring Gu, as the name suggests, devours spiritual energy." Wuji explained slowly, "Anyone infected with the Soul Devouring Gu will initially absorb the spiritual energy drawn from the outside world during cultivation, causing their cultivation speed to gradually slow down. As the Gu grows, it absorbs more and more spiritual energy. When the spiritual energy drawn from the outside world by its host is insufficient for it to absorb, it will devour the spiritual energy in the host's body. The host's cultivation will gradually decline, until it is completely reduced to a useless person."

As he spoke, Wuji's expression gradually turned cold. He looked at Su Qingning with a look of pity in his eyes. "Disciple, it seems that your situation in the Su family is really dangerous. There are too many people who want to harm you. If possible, you should leave the Su family for the time being!"

"No, I won't leave!" Su Qingning's face was icy cold, her dark eyes were filled with sharp coldness, and her voice was full of murderous intent. "The hatred of two lifetimes has not been avenged yet, and the people who wanted to harm me have not been punished yet. How can I leave!"

Looking at Su Qingning's determined look, Wuji knew that it would be futile no matter how much he said, so he simply stopped trying to persuade her.

"Alas! In that case, I will not persuade you any more." Wuji sighed helplessly. He looked at Su Qingning seriously and warned her solemnly, "My disciple, you must remember to protect yourself at all times."

"Master, don't worry, I know."

Having died twice, Su Qingning now cherishes her life more than anyone else.

"Alas! It's a pity that I am just a soul now and cannot help you." Wuji looked at his appearance at this moment, and his whole soul fell into dejection.

"Master, please don't say that. You've helped me a lot. Qingning will always remember your kindness." Seeing Wuji's dejected face, Su Qingning quickly comforted him, "Master, Qingning has always felt very lucky because I met you. If it weren't for you, Xiaoyu and I would probably still be ordinary people who don't know how to practice cultivation!"

"Hehe!" Wuji's emotions came and went quickly. Su Qingning comforted him with a few words, and he immediately became happy. He smiled and said, "I also feel very lucky because I met you and accepted you and Xiaoyu, two disciples with abnormal talents."

Hearing this, Su Qingning's eyes were also filled with smiles, "Yes, we are all very lucky."

"Right, right, right. Both us, master and disciple, are blessed by fate. Hahahaha..."

Wuji laughed happily for a long time before he slowly stopped laughing. Then, he looked at the green bug wrapped in spiritual power in mid-air and asked, "Disciple, how do you plan to deal with this Soul Devouring Gu?"

"Of course, we should give someone a taste of his own medicine." There was a cold light flashing in Su Qingning's eyes, as sharp as a knife.

Humph! Liu Ruyan, since you want to use the Soul Devouring Gu to harm me, then you must be able to withstand my revenge. I hope that one day in the future, when you see your daughter turned into a waste, you can still laugh.

Thinking of Liu Ruyan's collapse in the future, Su Qingning's mood suddenly became cheerful. She took out a porcelain bottle and put the Soul-Devouring Gu in it and settled it down. Then she picked up the light green dress in the wooden box and tried it on herself.

"Master, do you think this dress looks good?" Su Qingning raised her head and looked at Wuji and asked.

Hearing Su Qingning's question, Wuji took a look at the skirt in her hand and gave a fair comment: "Well, it's not bad. It should look good on you."

"But... why are you asking this?" Wuji showed a confused expression and asked uncertainly: "You don't want to wear it, do you?"

"Well, of course I have to wear it." Su Qingning nodded affirmatively. She curled her lips slightly, sneered, and said meaningfully, "If I don't wear it, how can someone feel at ease?"

It is self-evident who this someone refers to. Su Qingning and Wuji both know it tacitly.

After Su Qingning changed into the light green dress and left the space with Su Qingyu, Wuji slowly floated back into his colorful glass gourd.

In the air, his soft murmur could be heard faintly, "Ah! I'm afraid the Su family is going to have a good show to watch!"

……

When Su Qingning came out of the space, Yun Ruopiao had already woken up from her nap.

"Wow~ Ningning is so pretty~"

Seeing Su Qingning in new clothes, Yun Ruopiao's beautiful eyes lit up. She rushed over and hugged Su Qingning, then kissed her heavily on the face, "Mu Ma~"

Su Qingning

"Ningning is pretty, mom likes it, hehe~"

"Sister, you are so beautiful. Xiaoyu likes you the most~" Su Qingyu hugged Su Qingning's waist from the other side and praised her sweetly.

Aunt Zhang looked at Su Qingning, who was as delicate and cute as a porcelain doll, and her face was also full of smiles. "The third young lady has been beautiful since she was a child. Now that she has grown up, she is even more beautiful."

Seeing everyone praising Su Qingning, the four new arrivals Chunyu, Xiamian, Qiuyue, and Dongxue also smiled and praised, "Wow, Third Miss is so beautiful! The flowers blooming in the garden pale in comparison to her!"

Hearing this, Su Qingning raised her eyes and slowly looked at Chunyu, Xiamian, Qiuyue and Dongxue, her eyes sweeping over them one by one; on the surface, the expressions of the four of them seemed to be fine, but Su Qingning clearly caught a glimpse of something strange in the eyes of one of them.

Oh! There really is a problem!

Su Qingning sneered in her heart, she opened her red lips slightly, and was about to test these four maids; but at this moment, the door of Jinyuan was knocked again.

"Knock Knock Knock..."

There was a rhythmic knock on the door. Su Qingning frowned slightly, wondering who would come to Jinyuan at this time.

"Chunyu, go open the door." Su Qingning ordered softly.

"Yes."

Chunyu responded and quickly walked over to open the gate. When she saw who was outside, she immediately bowed and said, "Greetings, Steward Su."

The person who came was the housekeeper Su Ping. He looked at Chunyu and asked gently, "Chunyu, is the third young lady here?"

"Yes, the third lady is inside. Please come in, housekeeper." Chunyu stepped aside and let Su Ping in.

Su Ping walked into Jinyuan and saw Su Qingning in the crowd. He hurried over and bowed, "This old servant greets the Third Madam, the Third Miss, and the Seventh Young Master."
