章 721: Revert to one’s original self

"Master..."

Gu Qianxue ran up to Tianshan Elder with tears streaming down like the rain, and cried, "Master, how... how are you?"

For as long as she could remember, her master had maintained the appearance of a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, but now she had suddenly transformed into an old woman with a hunchback. Age had ravaged her face and her hair was white, revealing just how old she was. No matter how stupid one was, it wasn't difficult to tell that something terrible had happened to her.

Tianshan Elder's youthful appearance was no more. In her place was an ancient woman who had lived for thousands of years.

Badly injured, Tianshan Elder coughed in pain. She reached out with a shriveled hand and touched Gu Qianxue's head. She smiled kindly and said, "Silly girl, why are you crying? This is how I looked like, to begin with, and there is nothing to worry about."

Gu Qianxue couldn't help but shed tears, despite her master's comforting words.
