Chapter 1: Detachment from emotions
"Who is this? What big mistake did he make to be imprisoned in a cell?"
"Sect Leader Shen's fake daughter Shen Sanruo. I heard that she was jealous of Bai Mumu, the biological daughter of the sect leader who had only been found in recent years, and deliberately pushed Bai Mumu down the valley."
"Ah, Junior Sister Bai is in such poor health and has suffered so many injuries. How can she be so cruel!"
"She still refused to admit that Master Ling Xiao was so angry that he threw him into this confinement room."
"This confinement room is equipped with powerful formations. Even if you have a strong mind like a Nascent Soul monk, you will be tortured into a trance after staying for a few days. Hum, you deserve it!"
"Shh, stop talking, someone is coming."
The door of the confinement room was opened, and a ray of light shone on the terrified girl in the room.
Shen Sangruo was only in the middle stage of foundation building, and after only one day in the confinement room, her spirit almost collapsed.
When his bloodshot eyes saw the door open, they saw hope as if rain came after a long drought.
Was it the second senior brother who came to take her out? !
"Second Senior Brother, it's really not me..."
The words of her defense stopped on her lips, and after she saw who it was, a trace of fear appeared in her eyes.
"Third, third senior brother..."
Shen Sangruo looked at the stern-faced Lu Shiqing as he slowly squatted down and stretched out his knuckled hand towards her.
But she shrank back subconsciously, the fear in her eyes getting stronger.
How could it be Lu Shiqing?
The one she fears most is Lu Shiqing.
"Are you afraid of Third Senior Brother?" Lu Shiqing had his back to the light, and Shen Sangruo couldn't see the expression on his face clearly.
All she could hear was his cold voice saying to her: "Third senior brother, take you out."
Thinking of the torture she suffered in the dark confinement room, Shen Sangruo couldn't care less. She just wanted to get out at the moment.
Even if she was punished by Lu Shiqing after she went out, she felt cruel and grabbed the hand that Lu Shiqing extended to her.
But she didn't expect a Gu insect to appear in Lu Shiqing's hand, and it sank into her skin the moment she held his hand!
The next moment, the familiar bone-gnawing pain made Shen Sangruo suddenly collapse to the ground.
Lu Shiqing wiped the hand she held.
The voice was extremely cold: "This is the Seven Emotions Gu. If you don't know how to control your emotions and possessiveness, then I will help you learn to control it."
"Lest you feel jealous again and harm others."
"I will come over tomorrow with my second senior brother. If you reflect on it and are willing to admit your mistake, we will take you out."
After saying that, he rolled up his sleeves and left without giving Shen Sangruo another unnecessary look.
For those who have been planted with the Seven Emotions Gu, any emotion in their hearts will be like insects gnawing at their bones, making life worse than death.
Lu Shiqing knew that she had deep feelings for her master and senior brothers, so the Seven Emotions Gu was the best way to punish her.
Pictures of the past kept appearing in my mind like a fountain.
She was the daughter that Shen Daochen held in his hands when she was young. When she got older, she became a disciple of the sect's first monk, Master Ling Xiao.
She became a close disciple of Master Ling Xiao, and her four senior brothers loved her very much.
She is happy every day.
But two years ago, a thin girl of the same age as her came to the sect and came to Shen Daochen with a token, saying that she was his daughter.
Only then did Shen Daochen realize that he had carried the wrong daughter back then, and he quickly recognized Bai Mumu back.
Overnight, she became the fake daughter of the sect, and Shen Daochen said that he would still treat her like his own daughter.
But in order to compensate Bai Mumu, Shen Daochen asked Master Ling Xiao to make an exception and take Bai Mumu into his sect.
Master and senior brothers thought that she had taken Bai Mumu's place, and they also paid more attention to Bai Mumu.
At some point, the topic in the mouths of her master and brothers turned to Bai Mumu, and she could only follow them and chase after them.
She tried her best to be the best that her master and brothers said, but she still didn't get their attention.
Therefore, she became even more obsessed with getting their attention and trying to please them in every possible way.
But she also wanted to start with herself, not Bai Mumu. Bai Mumu's fall into the valley this time had nothing to do with her.
She tried her best to explain, but no one among her father, master, and brothers believed her.
Thinking of this, she felt a suffocating sting in her heart, as if someone had pierced her heart with a sword.
The more unwilling Shen Sangruo becomes, the more powerful the Seven Emotions Gu attacks.
The severe pain tore at Shen Sangruo's nerves, and she couldn't even tell whether it was the confinement room that made her suffer more, or Lu Shiqing's Seven Emotions Gu that made her suffer more.
She really doesn't want to! She doesn’t want their attention anymore!
Don't let her suffer anymore!
When Shen Sangruo felt that he was about to faint, the black wood in his arms gave off a burst of light.
In her confusion, she heard a voice in her heart: "Oh, how pitiful it is."
"My little friend, if I could separate you from your feelings for them right now, would you be willing?"
"Yes!" Shen Sangruo said without any hesitation.
There was no time to think about who the speaker was and where he came from.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
The pain of bone-eroding was driving her crazy. At this moment, she just wanted to get those people out of her mind.
But before she could hold on until the other party made any move, she passed out.
After an unknown amount of time, Shen Sangruo woke up again. The pain caused by the Seven Emotions Gu had disappeared and he felt more relaxed.
There was a bit more alienation in her eyes, and her heart was as calm as water, and she would never be troubled by those people again.
The Seven Emotions Gu didn't attack, but the formation in the confinement room was still there.
Her sleep was not stable, and she broke into a cold sweat.
She took out the black wood in her arms, which she picked up casually in the valley. Unexpectedly, it saved her life.
"What speaks in my mind seems to be a ray of consciousness attached to the mysterious wood."
But now the consciousness on the mysterious wood has disappeared.
The consciousness also said that since he had helped her, he would ask her to go to a mountain to find him in the future to repay her kindness.
Shen Sangruo placed the black wood on the ground and kowtowed to it twice.
"Thank you for saving my life, senior. Shen Sangruo will definitely find you and repay your kindness!"
She had just put away the black wood.
I heard a "squeak" and then the door of the confinement room opened.
Second senior brother Wen Xuan and third senior brother Lu Shiqing appeared in her sight.
Wen Xuan raised his hand to remove the formation in the confinement room.
He pursed his lips and said to her: "Fifth Junior Sister, you have been reflecting in the confinement room for two days. Are you willing to admit your mistake?"
Lu Shiqing was trying to secretly take back the Seven Emotions Gu from her body so that she would not be in so much pain that she could not speak.
Before he could take it back, Shen Sangruo's clear voice sounded in the confinement room.
"I shouldn't have pushed my junior sister down the valley. I admit my mistake." Her voice was calm.
If she doesn't admit it, they won't let her out.
Although he had expected it, Wen Xuan still couldn't hide the disappointment in his eyes.
"Since you admit your mistake, do you have any objection to using ten drops of your blood to heal the little junior sister's injuries?"
"No, please ask Second Senior Brother to take me out. I am willing to make up for my mistakes." She cupped her fists and bowed to Wen Xuan.
Seeing her such attitude, Wen Xuan must have truly regretted it.
In addition, I suffered a lot after staying in the confinement room for two days.
After all, she is also her junior sister, so her voice became softer: "Let's go, I will take you to see Master."
