After rushing slowly and hurriedly all the way, Yunli and his party finally returned to Dayan City a few days later.
"How's it going? Have you rescued the Gu King?"
Before the spirit boat could stop, a sound as loud as a bell sounded from its lower end, with a rising tail tone and undisguised nervousness.
Yunli walked out of the boat. Good guy, Xiao Zhen took the lead. Almost all the Ye and Xiao families in Dayan City were there, watching eagerly.
Ye Zheyan came out behind and couldn't bear to see it. After all, it was a big family that had lasted for thousands of years. Although there was a reason for everything, this monkey's anxious look was really embarrassing.
He nodded, turned around and said to Ying Mei who walked out of the cabin: "It's been a tough trip, little friend, take a good rest first."
A steward nearby responded quickly, "Fairy, please come with me."
"There's no rush," Yingmei waved her hand, "First deal with the mutated witch and Gu people in the city. As for the mature Gu worms, given my current situation, it's quite difficult and I'll have to wait for a while."
The Yexiao family, who were excited by the appearance of the shadow demon, calmed down. The mutated witches and voodoos were just voodoos restricted to a certain part of the body by special restrictions. The voodoos did not change much in nature and could be eliminated by ordinary pill fire.
It's just that Canye Pavilion's restriction is so subtle that they haven't found a way to lift it yet. Some strong men once cut off their wrists and simply cut off the entire mutated part.
Unexpectedly, the restriction was triggered, and the poisonous insects rushed to other parts, instantly devouring all the flesh and blood in his body, and transformed from a conscious mutated evildoer into a walking corpse.
From then on, they did not dare to act rashly when dealing with such people who had been poisoned.
After pondering for a moment, Ye Zheyan nodded, "That's fine."
Soon, all the mutated witches and Gu people in the city were brought there. There were only about a dozen of them, and they were all descendants of the Xiao family. Most of their cultivations were in the Qi-training and foundation-building stages.
Making mutant witch and Gu people is a technical job. Only those Xiao family members who were captured and sent to the West Mountain Spirit Mine can become mutant witch and Gu people.
Yingmei took two steps forward and slowly closed her eyes. For a moment, a green light appeared in her Dantian. It was blurry at first, but gradually the green light became clear. It was an insect the size of the knuckle of her little finger. The whole body is green, like a bright emerald under the sun, transparent and clean.
At the same time, a strange aura emerged from her body. When the green light appeared, the mutated parts containing the Gu worms were suddenly rubbed by invisible hands like balloons, swelling and deflating.
Yunli suddenly heard a very slight 'pop' sound. She immediately looked over and saw a thin crack appeared in the middle of the calf of the huge stone pillar-like leg diagonally opposite, and there was a flash of black light. It was a Gu insect. The chelicerae!
Sure enough, after about a breath, a thin chelicerae stretched out from the seam. The chelicerae bent and pulled the skin on one side inward. A larger hole was torn open, and black insects the size of rice grains flew out. , followed by the second, third...
Yunli quickly took action and burned the Gu insects that appeared. Others quickly reacted and took action one after another.
A quarter of an hour later, the Gu King in Ying Mei's body fell silent. She staggered and fell straight forward.
"careful!"
Yunli hurriedly supported her, her palms were wet, and when she looked again, Yingmei was sweating like rain, her face was almost transparent, and the cyan blood vessels were visible under her skin; her lips had lost color, and her pupils had no focus.
The whole person is like a porcelain doll, which will shatter at the slightest touch.
Yunli's heart tightened and she hurriedly called out: "Ying Mei!"
Soon, her pupils were focused again, her eyes rolled slightly, and when they met Yunli's gaze, she smiled weakly, "I'm fine."
"Is this okay?" Seeing that she had regained consciousness, Xiao Zhen asked hurriedly.
Ying Mei nodded and said: "I have commanded the Gu King to call out all the Gu worms in their bodies. As for the devoured flesh and blood, I can't help."
"But they look like this..." Xiao Zhen frowned. Although the poisonous insects were eliminated, these dozen people were also useless. The parts that were transformed by the poison now only have a layer of skin wrapped around the bones. They looked particularly strange. Creepy.
"I have already told the leaders of the Night Clan about this. There is nothing I can do about the devoured flesh and blood."
Xiao Zhen wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Yunli: "Okay, let her rest. She has been imprisoned for more than ten years and her body is already weak. When she arrived here, she didn't even take a sip of water before she started driving the Gu King. What should I do if I am tired? It would be good if I can save my life and not be controlled by others. The lost flesh and blood will grow back when the baby is born!"
Yunli, the person who rescued Yingmei, spoke, and Xiao Zhen had to agree. Anyway, these were just members of the Xiao family who had made mistakes. Their cultivation was low, so the loss was a loss. The key was mature Gu insects.
After letting Yingmei go to rest, Yunli looked at Xiao Zhen seriously, "Clan Leader Xiao, have you found out who leaked the secret about the riot?"
"It's been found out." Xiao Zhen looked strange. First he glanced at Ye Zheyan, then at Mo Huai, and finally at Yunli.
"Who is it?" Yunli became even more curious.
Mo Huai sighed softly and said helplessly: "Xu Linghui."
"Huh?" Yunli suspected that she heard wrongly, "Why did she do this?"
Xiao Zhen gloated: "Why else? Of course I want to help the Ye family get out of the crisis as soon as possible. If this thing had not happened to someone close to you, would you have saved the host of the Gu King so quickly?"
After saying that, he patted Ye Zheyan on the shoulder and said: "Old Ye, marriage matters are all about being well-matched. Look at the daughter-in-law that your Ye family has chosen for Xiaojiu. This insight, oh, I can't see it!"
Yunli's eyes were heavy and she asked Mo Huai, "How can you be sure it's her?"
If this thing is successful, the Ye family will not be grateful, but will offend Taiyi Sect. Xu Linghui is a smart person and has been engaged to Ye Chuchen, so he can't help but do such a thankless thing.
Mo Huai wiped his mind and said, "Before we went to West Asia Mountain, the two clan leaders and many powerful people were there. The leaker would never dare to go to Muxiyuan at that time. So we targeted people who had been to Muxiyuan after we left. .”
He looked at Yunli and said, "Because you killed the witch-gu killer, the two families were very excited. During that time, many people visited their relatives and told them that there was hope for the elimination of mature voodoo insects."
Yunli was speechless, so she made the investigation more difficult.
Xiao Zhen took over the conversation: "After several inquiries, there is nothing wrong with these people. Only a woman from your seventh branch died in the riot.
"Shut up?" Ye Zheyan raised his eyebrows.
"Just silence." Xiao Zhen smacked his lips, "You don't know, this girl is used to putting on a show. During the riot, she pretended to hold the piano and play "Forgetting Love" in the air, saying that the woman was also poisoned and attacked her. , only the Jindan from Xuanyu Sect would kill him. "
After saying that, he continued to gloat about Luoye Zheyan, "Tell me, how good it was that we settled on our girl Mei!"
Seeing that he was talking about personal matters, Mo Huai hurriedly brought back the topic: "We checked the body and there was no sign of being poisoned. Later, after the poisoner who lived opposite her son woke up, he said that he had seen her son go to cover his body. She probably didn't agree with her actions; some people had seen Xu Linghui outside Muxiyuan that day."
Yunli murmured: "Several clues corroborate each other, and it seems that it is indeed Xu Linghui."
But who is Xu Linghui, a top-grade green tea, with a keen eye all over her body, and the best at weighing the pros and cons. The reason for rushing to the aid of Central Continent is to make sure that "Forgetting Love" has completely suppressed the witchcraft and poisonous people, or to eliminate low-level poisonous poisonous insects with them in the periphery first.
Although she valued the Ye family's marriage, she valued her own interests more. Such a stupid thing was not something she would do.
Could it be that she was determined to retaliate and took action because she hated them for their petty grudges in the past?
Isn't it?
Ye Zheyan ignored Xiao Zhen's gloating, stood up and said, "Little friend Yun, why don't we go see her together?"
After saying that, without waiting for Yunli's reply, she said to Mo Huai, "Little friend Mo, please lead the way."
Yunli's eyes flashed slightly, and he understood instantly. He only named her and Mo Huai, the two representatives of Taiyi Sect's suffering masters. This meant that he did not believe that Xu Linghui did it and wanted to inquire privately.
Soon, the three of them came to the heavily guarded courtyard. Ye Zheyan coldly ordered the guards: "Watch, no one is allowed to come near."
Seeing the three people, Xu Linghui was stunned for a moment before she realized what was happening. She quickly came over and greeted the three of them one by one: "I've seen the patriarch, Zhenren Yun, and Zhenren Mo."
The skirt of the skirt swayed, the hem of the skirt moved smoothly, and there was no trace of embarrassment in her every move.
Ye Zheyan nodded and sat down at the main seat. Xu Ling Huilian moved lightly and poured him tea with an elegant posture.
Yunli clicked her tongue and sighed, no wonder the Ye family would agree to the marriage between Ye Chuchen and Xu Linghui. The behavior styles of Xu Linghui and the head of the Ye family were almost carved from the same mold.
After taking a few sips of tea, Ye Zheyan put down the tea cup and said slowly: "Why did you go to Muxi Garden?"
Xu Linghui bit her lip, with a trace of shyness on her pretty face, "I had a conversation with the Ninth Young Master by the lotus pond, and passed by the northwest corner of the Osmanthus Garden on my way back."
"How did she die?" Ye Zheyan's voice was as calm as ever, without any doubt.
"I was playing the piano, and she suddenly rushed over. Xu Da thought she was bewitched, so he wanted to subdue her. When he didn't want to do it, he fell into a trance. When he came back to his senses, the Smokeless Sword had already been inserted into her heart. "
Yunli was in a daze of consciousness, so was Xu Linghui taking the blame for someone else? Obviously, it was indeed the woman from the Ye family who leaked the secret, but she must have been bewitched. Now that the woman is dead, it is a bit difficult to find out who is behind the scenes.
After a moment of silence, Ye Zheyan said: "This matter is indeed your fault. I will write a letter to Master Xu and you will set off back to Xuanyu Sect today."
"Yes." Xu Linghui responded respectfully, with a look of shame on her face, "This matter is indeed Linghui's fault. I will go back and think about my mistakes behind closed doors."
Ye Zheyan nodded, stood up and said to Yunli and the others, "Let's go."
Yunli glanced at Xu Linghui, who was bending to send him off, and then looked at Ye Zheyan's back. She admired the little fox and the old fox for making confessions so implicitly!
After going out, Yunli hurriedly went to find Anran and Muyan. After making sure that they were okay, she took Muyan to another room to avoid the poisonous insects in Anran and Duoduo's bodies, and said, "Give me a panacea." .”
Mu Yan was puzzled, "Didn't you take one away?"
"Don't mention it."
Yunli sighed softly and briefly mentioned Yingmei's thoughtless behavior. When she talked about it, she felt so embarrassed that she couldn't help complaining: "It's a big loss."
For the remaining panacea, they were planning to wait for the poison to come out and let the Ye family organize an auction, which would make the news of the panacea known to everyone and fundamentally dismantle Canye Pavilion. Make a fortune.
Mu Yan was silent, took out the panacea to her, and advised: "Care leads to chaos. She must be too worried about Yingyi, that's why she is like this. Don't be rude to others, it's just a pill, Just refine it again.”
"Don't worry, I still expect her to remove the poison for my cousin. I know the importance of it. Besides, she can help eliminate all the poison. I'm grateful to her before it's too late. How can I be unhappy with her because of a small pill? That's not true. , I will come and get her the antidote as soon as I have some free time."
After saying that, she went to find Ying Mei.
Dayan City slowly returned to calm, but the atmosphere in Zhongzhou City was stagnant. At the main entrance of the Ye family, in the temporary tent set up, the host of ten or so people sat silently.
For a long time, a middle-aged man with a mustache turned pale and said in a trembling voice: "That breath just now was..."
"King Gu." The old man with gray beard said the words he dared not say.
The mustached monk cried out: "They really rescued the host of the Gu King! Over there in the Qing River Valley..."
"The matters over there are for the Pavilion Master to consider. What we need to do now is to take down the Yexiao family." The old man's voice was calm, but it could not comfort everyone.
Their mission is to transform the Yexiao family into Gus and share the pressure of the Qinghe River Valley. But now, the host of the Gu King is under the control of the other party, can the task be completed? That is the Gu King, who will completely suppress the Gu insects in their bodies.
The old man's cloudy eyes moved, taking in the expressions of everyone, and said quietly: "The Ye Xiao family saved the host of the Gu King, more to save the tribesmen who were transformed by the Gu, but once the Gu worm matures, it will not be flesh and blood. If it doesn't exist, it cannot come out without death. Even if it is the Gu King, it is not that easy to summon it out.
Moreover, the Gu King is the pavilion master's spiritual pet, and Ying Mei is just a container. The degree of control she can have is limited. Once the Gu King determines that her actions are harming her own tribe, not only will she not listen, but she will bite her back. "
These words finally gave everyone some confidence. To the King of Gu, mature Gu insects were his carefully cultivated children and would not be harmed easily.
As for those defective products, King Gu himself despised them very much.
The mustached monk smiled and said, "How can we not let them know this news? I will go to the front and let them know."
After thinking for a moment, the old man agreed. The Ye family spirit ship turned around. Not only did they see it, but the two families on the battlefield outside Zhongzhou City also saw it.
At this moment, the fighting spirit is high, so it would be a good idea to pour some cold water on them or to cheer them up.
After the mustache left, the old man continued: "Tell your men to be prepared. The battle ahead will not be easy."
Everyone naturally understood that although the host of the Gu King could not completely control the mature Gu Insects, it would still affect them. There was also the annoying flute-playing male cultivator and Tai Tianjiao Yunli, who could burn all the Gu Insects to death. They were afraid that they would also come back. .
With these three people around, you have to worry about it all the time, and the battle will not be easy.
