Ms. Doctor Divine

Gu Chaoyan retrieved a bottle of pills concealed within her robes and handed it to Zuo Hanyin. “This antidote will neutralize the poison within you. Once you’ve taken it, the poison will no longer afflict your body. We’re still allies in this endeavor.”

The Undead Race hesitated momentarily, then extended his hand to accept the antidote.

A fleeting smile graced Gu Chaoyan’s lips, revealing her ability to express joy. However, a hint of guilt also lingered within her emotions.

Her recent actions involved deception towards the Undead Tribe, claiming she intended to poison him as a means of leverage.

Understanding the Undead Race’s aversion to falsehoods, and realizing she couldn’t reveal the true motives, Gu Chaoyan had included an antidote. This concoction was the same elixir that all the disciples of the Wushang Sect possessed. Consuming it would bring an end to the entire predicament.

Observing this, a soft laugh escaped Gu Chaoyan’s lips.

Momentarily, she covered her eyes, producing several bottles of medicinal pills. “These are all of superior- grade quality. Ingesting some will aid in the restoration of your spiritual energy.”

While she spoke…

Gu Chaoyan scrutinized the Undead Race intently.

To be truthful…

His appearance was unsettlingly repulsive, undeniably far from the realm of human aesthetics.

Thus, regardless of his former handsome countenance, he remained conspicuously conspicuous in any setting.

In days of yore, the sect had held a certain level of trepidation towards the Undead Race.

However, the current scenario saw the Undead Race in Xuhai City provoke the ire of numerous sects. These factions sought his elimination while he struggled to regain his former strength. Venturing alone was exceedingly perilous for him.

Consider the possibility…

Imagine if she could discover a means to persuade him to assume a human form, accompanying her without attracting undue complications.

Such an outcome would substantially alleviate the myriad challenges.

However, transforming him into a human proved to be a formidable task.

“Why fixate your gaze upon me? While I might be considered rather dashing in the realm of the Undead Race, our customs dictate that we exclusively wed within our own kind, disregarding other races,” Zuo Hanyin rebuffed the proposition, radiating an air of disdain directed at Gu Chaoyan.

His words caused Gu Chaoyan’s scalp to tingle, struck by a sense of incredulity.

His vanity knew no bounds.

Handsome?

What relevance did he possess?

“The degree of his handsomeness is of little consequence. Can you devise a method for him to appear with a human visage? Otherwise, the ensuing predicaments could prove exceedingly cumbersome,” Gu Chaoyan inquired with forthrightness.

“Absolutely,” Zuo Hanyin responded matter-of-factly.

Subsequently, he extracted a piece of human skin from one of his concealed pouches.

It was an entire person’s skin.

A wave of nausea surged through Gu Chaoyan, her scalp tingling with unease.

What was transpiring?

Originally, she had intended to secure facial transformation pills.

And yet… he presented her with human skin!

Such an offering was beyond her capacity for acceptance.

In front of Gu Chaoyan, he donned the human skin, adopting the appearance of an ordinary individual. However…

However…

“You were a woman prior to joining the ranks of the Undead Race, correct?” Gu Chaoyan’s features bore a perplexed expression. His vocal demeanor, especially while adorned in human skin, lacked feminine nuances.

The Undead Race’s countenance contorted into one of disdain.

“I am male,” he elucidated, his tone carrying a hint of exasperation. “Before my affiliation with the Undead Race, I existed as a man by nature. Do you assume every member of the Undead Race possesses human skin, each being their own original skin? That notion is implausible. Preceding my integration into the Undead Race, my human skin had been forcibly removed by a witch-like woman resembling a venomous scorpion. These skins were obtained through our own efforts, and their availability is exceedingly limited. Merely those of the rank of hall master or higher are privy to them..”
