Hong Gu entered from outside.
Her complexion was ghastly, a dark purplish color. Frost clung to her eyebrows and hair, and ice flakes flew from her lips with every breath. The moment she stepped inside, the temperature in the cave dwelling plummeted.
Seeing her state, Lü Zhong guessed the reason for Hong Gu's visit.
Meanwhile, Hong Gu walked to the fire and sat down. The flames did little to dispel the icy chill within her. Her tone softened as she spoke, "Mr. Chen, I saw you use Yang Fire against our enemy today. It seemed to be of a rather high grade. I was wondering if you could help me expel the Yin Qi from my body?"
She had been gravely injured in her previous fight with the Three Lives Ghost Monarch, and the Yin Qi had long since invaded her body. If she didn't expel it soon, she feared even her Nascent Soul would begin to decay. In the end, her only options would be to either let her cultivation dissipate and die, or to switch her path and cultivate the Yellow Springs Dao.
