"Motherf * cker! That old turtle is really evil!"
In a mountain forest a hundred miles away from Blood Refining Sect, Wang Xiaopang cursed angrily.
At this moment, he and Li Jingye were holding a few silk-like worms in their hands.
These small insects were Gu worms, hatched from the eggs placed in Elder Qian's tea and pills.
Fortune and misfortune came together. Without the memories of the Blood Refinement Sect's Patriarch, Li Jingye would not have been able to lure these Gu worms out.
He might even be kept in the dark and not even know that he had been poisoned.
Yang Kaishan, who was standing not far away, was the best example.
"With how cautious that old thing is, I'm afraid that little sister will also be poisoned.”
"Fortunately, I didn't act rashly this time. Otherwise, if I exposed the puppet, I'm afraid that I wouldn't be able to save my little sister and would instead harm her.”
"That old thing didn't use Gu on me in Lin Mountain City because he probably thought that I was about to die and there was no need to waste Gu worms.”
While Li Jingye was secretly rejoicing, he was also thinking about what to do next.
"Brother Ye! What about these Gu worms? Squeeze them all to death?"
At this moment, Wang Xiaopang's voice sounded. He had already crushed the Gu worm in his hand until there was only one left.
"Leave one! I'll teach you the way to control it!"
"You can make the Gu worm fall into a deep sleep!”
"This is the most common white Gu worm, controlled by a higher level black Gu worm.”
"We have to keep a Gu worm. The next time we meet that old thing, he might secretly control the Gu worm and try to control us.”
"That's why we have to keep one. We can't expose ourselves.”
"However, we have to engrave a restriction on this thing. Don't be harmed by it later.”
As Li Jingye explained, he pondered for a moment. Then, he bit his fingertip and carved strange patterns on the white Gu worm's body.
Fortunately, this was only a White Venomous Worm. If it was a Black Venomous Worm, Li Jingye would probably be unable to do so.
Soon, the remaining two White Gu worms entered Li Jingye and Wang Xiaopang's bodies and fell silent.
As the ancestor of Gu worms, the Blood Refinement Ancestor did not leave behind any powerful Gu worms.
Instead, he fused his vital Gu worms into his puppet. Therefore, his puppet body was actually considered a high-level Gu worm and had the ability to expel and control low-level Gu worms.
He only knew that the White Venomous Insects were not a threat to him. As for the Black Venomous Insects of a higher level, Li Jingye was not sure if the puppet could control them.
"Keep an eye on Kai Yang and guard outside the forest. I have something to do and need to stay in the forest for a while.”
After dealing with the Gu worm, Li Jingye gave a few instructions to Wang Xiaopang and quickly entered the dense forest.
Soon, he found a relatively hidden bush in the forest.
Li Jingye took out his storage ring and released a figure from it.
The figure was none other than Xiao Luo, whom Li Jingye had promised the old village chief to save.
This guy was considered lucky. Although he was controlled by Elder Sun's Gu worm, his divine soul was not eaten by the Gu worm.
During his battle with Elder Sun, Xiao Luo had been temporarily sealed in Elder Sun's storage pouch due to his injuries.
The storage bag could not contain living things because there was no spiritual energy or oxygen inside.
Fortunately, Xiao Luo had been refined into a half-puppet. Elder Sun had injected spiritual energy into him to heal his wounds, and had also frozen him.
That was why he was able to survive.
"You met me! Consider yourself lucky!"
Li Jingye muttered to himself as he began to control the puppet body of the Blood Refinement Patriarch. It emitted a special scent to lure out the white Gu worm in Xiao Luo's body and kill it.
Immediately after, he poured spirit qi into Xiao Luo's body, cutting off the Gu threads in his body while trying to activate his vitality.
As his heart started to beat again, Xiao Luo's frozen blood started to flow throughout his body.
"Cough! Cough cough!"
Violent coughing sounds rang out as Xiao Luo woke up.
"How are you?"
Li Jingye's question stunned Xiao Luo, who was coughing violently.
"I've already expelled the Gu worm in your body. You've regained your freedom.”
Li Jingye, who did not have much time to waste, immediately explained.
"Thank you so much!"
"I can't repay your kindness for saving my life!"
Xiao Luo stood up and checked his condition, then thanked Li Jingye.
Although he still didn't know what had happened, he seemed to have regained his freedom now.
Back when he was controlled by Elder Sun, Xiao Luo, who had retained some of his consciousness, recognized Li Jingye.
That's why I asked him for help and shouted to save me.
He didn't expect that the young man from the mountain village, whom he had only met a few times, would be so loyal and actually save him.
"This is your grandfather's blood essence. He was imprisoned in the dungeon and was already on the verge of death when I met him.”
"He asked me to tell you his blood essence and cultivation chant.”
While Xiao Luo was distracted, Li Jingye threw a small porcelain bottle to him.
After that, the cultivation chant was transmitted into his ears through the secret sound transmission technique.
After Xiao Luo caught the bottle, he was completely stunned.
He held the small porcelain bottle tightly with both hands, and his eyes gradually turned red.
Li Jingye did not disturb him. Instead, he retreated to the side and waited.
After a long while, Xiao Luo finally recovered from his sorrowful mood and kept the small porcelain bottle.
"I can't thank you enough for your kindness! I will definitely repay you in the future!"
Xiao Luo came to Li Jingye's side and thanked him sincerely!
"At the last moment, I was the one who helped Old Village Chief Xiao free himself, so don't blame me.”
Li Jingye's words caused Xiao Luo to tremble.
He was silent for a long time before he said sadly,"The old man has worked too hard in his life. It's us juniors who are incompetent and can't let him enjoy his old age.”
"I don't blame you for sending Grandpa off. If you want to blame someone, blame me for being incompetent.”
Xiao Luo suddenly knelt down and kowtowed three times to Li Jingye.
Li Jingye stood calmly, not avoiding Xiao Luo's kowtow.
He understood that the other party was not bowing to him, but to the deceased village chief.
"I want to ask you, do you know about the destruction of the Li Family Village?”
Li Jingye asked Xiao Luo, only to see the shock and bewilderment in his eyes.
Without even asking, he knew that Xiao Luo definitely didn't know about this. This caused Li Jingye's hopeful gaze to dim.
After a moment of silence, Xiao Luo suddenly said,""Before Xiao Village was invaded and massacred by the enemy, Li Bingying from your village suddenly came to look for me.”
"She said something very strange to me, and I was a little confused at the time.”
"What did she say?"
Xiao Luo's sudden words caused Li Jingye, who had a gloomy expression on his face, to ask suspiciously.
"She said that after a person dies, their soul will sink into the Netherworld Sea. As long as we find the Netherworld Sea, we can resurrect the dead.”
Xiao Luo's reply made Li Jingye frown.
He had never heard of the Netherworld Sea.
If a person died, wouldn't they vanish into thin air? Could he be resurrected?
Did Bing Ying know that he would die? Was this a dying wish?
Li Jingye was confused, but no one answered him.
The destruction of the Li Family Village didn't seem like the work of mortals.
However, what kind of expert would do such an inhumane thing?
It seems that I have to find second grandpa when I have time. If he is still alive, he might be able to give me some answers.
