The good news: You're the only daughter of the Miaojiang Saintess, and your father is a strange man skilled in poison. Everyone in the village agrees that you're a master of both medicine and Gu.
The bad news: You're afraid of bugs and every soft-bodied creeping creature. Your parents have suddenly disappeared, and the village elders demand that you immediately inherit all your mother's Gu and protect the village.
Murong Lihua had been afraid of bugs since she was little, but fate loved playing tricks on her. She was born in the Witch-Gu Village and was the Saintess's only child. She had no choice but to raise Gu. No one knew that beneath her calm, unruffled exterior, she was already weeping inside.
Whenever the village held a Gu arts competition, she looked calm and composed, but in reality, she'd already run away some time ago.
Liu Chengqing was a sentient Gu King, an immortal who had lived for a thousand years. His venom could make every Gu rot away in an instant, but he hated spitting it out. Murong Lihua's mother had once happened upon him and taken him in. He never expected that after enjoying only a few days of the good life, he'd end up in little Lihua's hands...
Murong Lihua: (opens the Gu jar) Big bro, don't bite me yet (closes her eyes), please (throws him away)
Liu Chengqing: ?
The natal Gu rebelled against the master, I laughed, what is the difference between this and the weapon flying into the enemy's hands during a war? I'm afraid I won't break it on the spot and replace it with another one.
Tiantiantian, just don't let the heroine's parents separate. No cruelty!
