Chapter 62: What if I really intend to offer myself?
?
"Thank you!"
"Gu Fei... I really, really don''t know how to thank you!"
Yun Yun feels extremely moved, emotion value +100
When Yun Yun saw that Gu Fei agreed, a warm feeling surged in her heart, and her cold, beautiful face melted away.
She knew that she owed Gu Fei too much already.
"Are you nning to offer yourself as thanks?"
Seeing Yun Yun''s current emotions, Gu Fei couldn''t help but tease her with a smile.
Though Gu Fei said it casually, Yun Yun''s heart skipped a beat.
Yun Yun feels flustered and shy, emotion value +150
A blush quickly spread across her delicate face, and she bit her lower lip, showing a somewhat flustered expression.
However, looking at Gu Fei''s yful eyes, Yun Yun quickly realized he was joking.
"What if... I really intend to offer myself?"
Yun Yun feels hopeful, emotion value +100
Yun Yun bravely responded to Gu Fei''s joke with one of her own for the first time, while also feeling a flicker of hope in her heart for his response.
If an outsider were to witness this scene, they would be shocked.
Who was Yun Yun? Her cold, beautiful eyes had never shown any emotion. The usually serious and aloof Sect Master of the Misty Cloud Sect was now saying such ambiguous words to a young man.
Seeing Yun Yun''s somewhat serious expression, Gu Fei narrowed his eyes.
"Alright, enough joking. I''ll visit the Nn family first thing tomorrow morning."
He smiled, ending the conversation simply.

(TL/n: Tch, coward!)
Without getting the response she hoped for, Yun Yun''s body stiffened, and she pulled back her gaze, forcing a smile. "Alright, I''ll tell Yanran to be prepared."
Late at night, Yun Yun quietly entered Nn Yanran''s room to tell her that Gu Fei had agreed to treat Nn Jie.
"Really? Thank you, Master!"
Upon hearing the news, Nn Yanran''s eyes immediately reddened with gratitude.
...
The next morning, Nn Yanran urged Nn Su, and the father and daughter pair, along with the family''s guards, waited outside the pce early.
"It''s all thanks to your master pleading for help this time. Otherwise, your grandfather wouldn''t havested much longer..."
Outside the pce, a middle-aged man spoke excitedly to Nn Yanran.
"Yes, I have a feeling that Young Master Gu Fei will surely be able to cure my grandfather!" Nn Yanran nodded.
The father and daughter stood solemnly outside the pce gate.
Soon, Little Fairy Doctor and Qing Lin followed behind Gu Fei as they walked out of the pce gate.
Gu Fei had already sensed the presence of the Nn family members waiting outside the pce and walked towards them.
"Young Master Gu Fei! My father and I are here to escort you to the Nn residence."
When Nn Yanran saw Gu Fei approaching, her beautiful eyes lit up, and she hurried forward to greet him.

Gu Fei then brought Little Fairy Doctor and Qing Lin with him onto the carriage to the Nn residence.
Upon entering the main gate, they approached a luxurious hall at the end of a small path. Peering through the slightly ajar doors, they could see busy servants bustling about inside. "Young Master Gu Fei, my grandfather is in the side room of the main hall. This way, please." Nn Yanran walked ahead of Gu Fei by an arm''s length, speaking in a low voice.
As they slowly approached the side room, soft and warm lighting spilled out. Gu Fei gently pushed open the door.
The room was spacious, with arge bed at the center, where an elderly man with a withered facey.
Around the bed, several maids were busy attending to him. Hearing the door open, they nced over before returning to carefully tend to the unconscious old man.
As he moved closer to the bed, Gu Fei''s eyes scanned the old man lying there, noticing the faint gray-ck hue on his face and the faint aura of death on his peacefully sleeping face.
"It''s quite serious..."
ncing at the old man''s face, which seemed to be one step away from the grave, Gu Fei murmured.
"Yes, the poison is so severe that even a Dou Emperor wouldn''t dare to touch it lightly. The old master has already reached his limit after all these years."
Nn Su, who had followed closely behind, sighed and shook his head before cautiously asking, "Young Master Gu Fei, do you think there''s any hope for a cure?"
Nearby, Nn Yanran nodded slightly, her bright eyes fixed on the tall, indifferent young man
beside her.

Nn Yanran feels hopeful, emotion value +80
In Gu Fei''s perception, the poison had almost fused with Nn Jie''s bones, turning what
should have been smooth white bones into an ominous ck.
He frowned and said bluntly, "If an ordinary person tries to use heavenly me to dispel the poison, there''s a high chance he''ll be burnt to ashes."
After all, even a Dou Emperor would be severely injured if touched by heavenly me.
Nn Yanran feels shocked and disappointed, emotion value +80
"This..."
Hearing Gu Fei''s words, Nn Yanran became anxious, unsure of what to say.
Gu Fei nced at her calmly, "Don''t worry, I said that''s for ordinary people. I have a way to
cure himpletely without any danger."
The room fell into a brief, tense silence.
Nn Yanran feels hopeful, emotion value +80
Nn Su feels hesitant, emotion value +30
"Are you serious, Young Master?"
"In that case, I thank Young Master Gu Fei in advance for saving my father''s life!"
Nn Yanran believed Gu Fei''s words without hesitation, knowing he was brought by Yun Yun. Nn Su, although unfamiliar with Gu Fei''s abilities, was reassured by his confident
tone.
"Stand aside..."
Gu Fei said calmly before curling his hand slightly, causing a stream of energy to lift Nn Jie
from the bed.
He nced casually at Nn Jie. Despite years of poison eroding him, leaving his face even more haggard, there was still a trace of defiance, fitting his name.
His left hand lightly tapped Nn Jie''s shoulder, and with a burst of force, the old man''s clothes turned to dust, revealing a skeletal frame.
Looking at this emaciated body, Gu Fei''s expression remained unchanged, while Nn Yanran, standing nearby, already had tears welling up in her eyes.
It was rare to see such mist in her usually bright eyes, making the usually dignified woman
appear pitiful.
