These seven years could be considered the most agonizing seven years of Guo Ming's lifetime. If it were not for Liu Xueyan's sake, he might have long since committed suicide.

Even if Liu Xueyan had stolen the Undying Pill for him, it was only capable of keeping him barely alive. Whatever suffering he had to sustain, he would still have to endure, which would allow him to live for a few more years before being tortured to death by the Seven Blooms Seven Poisons Palmstrike.

…A poisoned injury would always need a specific medicine to be cured.

And now that he had been saved from the hellish abyss by Ling Han, just how strong was Guo Ming's hatred towards Ruan Dongxiang? However strong his hatred was towards Ruan Dongxiang, that was how strong his gratitude was towards Ling Han.
