Help, What Should I Do If The Person Who Likes Me Is a Yandere! - Chapter 23:

Chapter 23: Gu Ling’er and the Heavenly Demon Physique:

“Hey, did you hear? Someone snuck into the Holy Son’s quarters last night and injured his maid.”

“Really? Who would be so bold as to enter the Holy Son’s bedroom?”

“Hmph, I bet it was another one of those new female disciples trying to climb the social ladder by doing something like that.”

“Definitely. They think the Holy Son’s gentle demeanor means he’s easy to approach.”

“Remember the last time a female disciple tried to sneak into his residence? She thought she could seduce him because she was pretty. She ended up with broken legs and her meridians destroyed.”

“The Holy Son is like a sacred lotus, only to be admired from afar, not to be desecrated.”

…

(In the female disciples’ dormitory)

A few disciples were chatting as they washed up. They had grown accustomed to such rumors.

Any disciple who had been here for more than five years knew the Holy Son’s residence was absolutely off-limits.

No one, male or female, was allowed to enter without permission. The residence was protected by formidable arrays, and any misstep could lead to disaster. Besides, the Holy Son was a top-tier cultivator, the youngest and most exceptional genius in the entire cultivation world. Angering him could mean losing one’s life.

As they were talking, they saw Gu Ling’er walk in from outside.

“Ah, Junior Sister Gu, where were you so early?”

“Junior Sister Gu, you look pale. Are you okay?”

Seeing Gu Linger’s pale face, the disciples gathered around her, asking with concern.

Gu Ling’er forced a smile and waved her hand. “I just went to the river to bathe. The water was a bit cold, so…”

The disciples nodded in understanding.

“Oh, I see.”

“Even though it’s summer, it’s still cool in the early morning.”

“That’s right. Since we’re cultivating Yin-based martial arts, we have to be careful not to catch a cold.”

Gu Ling’er forced another smile and nodded gently. “By the way, could you please excuse me from today’s class?”

“Why?” A senior sister asked suspiciously. “Are you feeling unwell?”

Gu Ling’er, trying to stay composed, smiled. “No, it’s just that I had a sudden insight and feel like I’m about to make a breakthrough.”

“That’s impressive, Junior Sister Gu. You just had a breakthrough a short time ago.”

“Indeed, just half a month ago, she reached the 1st stage of the Transformation Realm, and now she’s already about to make a breakthrough again.”

The disciples exchanged envious glances.

Gu Ling’er wasn’t only beautiful but also incredibly talented. Her future prospects were immeasurable. It seemed so unfair that she had everything.

“Let’s go to class.” One of them said with a sigh. “We’re not like Junior Sister Gu, who can have breakthroughs just by taking a bath.”

Muttering complaints, the disciples reluctantly left the dormitory.

After they left, Gu Ling’er’s forced smile vanished. She gritted her teeth, closed the door, and drew the curtains.

Limping, she made her way to the bed.

She then lifted her skirt, revealing her blood-soaked bandages. Blood was trickling down her pale thigh from the deep wound.

“It hurts so much…” She whispered. “The Holy Son is truly powerful… hahaha.”

In the dim light of the room, Gu Ling’er’s eyes glowed with a faint pink light, and her smile twisted into something sick and distorted.

She grasped the bandage stuck to her flesh and ripped it off, causing blood to spurt everywhere.

“Ah… it hurts… it hurts so much, Holy Son…”

“But I know… Ling’er knows… the more it hurts, the more the Holy Son loves Ling’er…”

“It’s okay… Ling’er will be fine…”

Gu Ling’er, pale and trembling, clung to the bed as the bloody bandage fell. She took a bottle of medicine from her pocket and, gritting her teeth, poured it onto the wound.

The disciples of the Heavenly Dark Sect usually received second-grade medicine, which had excellent healing properties but caused excruciating pain.

Enduring the intense pain, Gu Ling’er almost fainted. She bit her lip, her mind filled with thoughts of Xu Ze: his smile, his words to her, and the warmth of his touch when he patted her head.

Buzz

Suddenly, a red light flashed in Gu Ling’er’s eyes, and her body began to change slightly. “Mmm…”

Her blood quickly clotted, and the muscle fibers in her leg bonded together and healed rapidly. Her leg healed completely in moments, leaving no scar.

The Heavenly Demon Physique in Gu Ling’er had unconsciously activated, showcasing its terrifying regenerative abilities. She had survived numerous abuses as a child, always recovering swiftly thanks to this unique physique.

Unaware of this, Gu Ling’er was drenched in sweat. Supporting herself on the bed, she looked at the droplets of sweat falling.

“Ah…”

When she finally exhaled, she collapsed onto the bed and fell asleep.
