The beautiful woman, who called herself Zhicheng, let out a sigh. She knew that Granny Tao and Qin Mushi had been deeply in love many years ago. They had made solemn vows to spend their lives together, and in doing so, had ingested a pair of Heart-Devouring Gu Insects; if one were to die, the other would inevitably perish as well.
Though such a thing sounded bizarre, it was exactly the sort of thing people with such eccentric temperaments as Granny Tao and Qin Mushi would do.
Later, due to various reasons, their relationship completely collapsed. Qin Mushi returned to Tianhai City and married another woman, turning his romance with Granny Tao into a tragic entanglement.
