Chapter 1116 Bone-Eroding Centipede
Chapter 1116 Bone-Eroding Centipede
"will not!"
Although he did not get a definite answer, Wu Gu still told the truth.
He looked at Jiang Xiaochuan, and for the first time, his eyes revealed genuine admiration:
“What that person used on the insect was a soul grafting technique.
"To put it bluntly, it is to forcibly project one's own consciousness onto the insect's consciousness to remotely control it, rather than directly leaving an indelible mark on the insect's core. And now..."
He paused, his tone a bit incredulous: "You are the true owner of it, the one that has merged with flesh and blood!"
Soul-eating leeches are considered an ominous taboo. The most terrifying thing about them is that they can devour the soul of their host.
Ninety-nine percent of people will have their souls eaten away if they even get close.
The fact that Jiang Xiaochuan could subdue such a ferocious creature at his current level was enough to impress Wu Gu.
Hearing this, Jiang Xiaochuan's tense heartstrings finally relaxed a little, and then his eyes were fixed on Wu Gu.
"Hey... my friend, you see... it was thanks to my formation and that theory that you were able to succeed..."
Wu Gu's hair stood on end when he was stared at. He said with a stiff upper lip: "Is it time... to remove the restrictions on me?"
"Mr. Wu's mastery of Gu magic... is truly extraordinary."
Jiang Xiaochuan smiled and invited sincerely, "Why don't you stay with me and be my consultant?"
The situation of the leeches is not yet completely clear, how could he let this living treasure trove of witchcraft go?
Wu Gu's face was full of expressions, and it was unclear whether he was crying or laughing.
How ironic!
He spent the first half of his life frustrated and his amazing knowledge went unappreciated.
Now that someone finally appreciates me, I can't help myself. I've become a prisoner!
He could also see that Jiang Xiaochuan had no intention of killing him for the time being.
Logically speaking, it would be better to stay with such a ruthless person who can even subdue soul-eating leeches.
It might be a good opportunity for him to study witchcraft. But...
"I...I have a mission, I absolutely cannot agree to it!"
Wu Gu struggled to give his reasons, his voice hoarse.
Although it was very likely that I took on this trip to the Central Plains as an excuse to be sent away, since I had agreed to it, I couldn't go back on my word easily.
More importantly, he must not be detained by Jiang Xiaochuan like this!
"Oh…..."
Jiang Xiaochuan sneered with an ambiguous meaning, and the chilling murderous intent emanating from his body almost solidified into substance.
This capricious attitude made Wu Gu feel like he was falling into an icy cave.
"Mr. Wu," Jiang Xiaochuan's voice was light and airy, "You seem to have... made a mistake. Do you think I was discussing this with you?"
Wu Gu finally came to his senses from the ecstasy of establishing his own sect and realized that he had no right to make any demands.
A long silence awaited him.
Jiang Xiaochuan closed his eyes and, relying on the connection with the leech, figured out the other person's natal Gu.
"Your natal Gu is a centipede."
After a while, Jiang Xiaochuan opened his eyes and said coldly.
"You...what do you mean?"
Wu Gu's voice trembled and his face turned pale. He had already guessed what Jiang Xiaochuan was going to do.
If the other party can even subdue the soul-eating blood leech, wouldn't it be easy for him to turn his natal Gu against him?
"Didn't you already guess it?"
Before he finished speaking, Jiang Xiaochuan suddenly attacked!
With a grab of five fingers in the air, an invisible suction force instantly grabbed the witch bone.
Accompanied by a "crackling" sound of bones.
A hideous centipede, about an inch long and completely black, was sucked out of Wu Gu's body by Jiang Xiaochuan!
As soon as it fell into Jiang Xiaochuan's palm, the black centipede felt the terrifying breath of the leech and immediately curled up into a ball, trembling.
"I'll give you a minute to think about it,"
Jiang Xiaochuan pinched the trembling black insect and said lightly, "Otherwise, I will take this centipede."
Jiang Xiaochuan was not joking.
Although Wugu was very important to him now, he really wanted to see it with his own eyes.
What will be the fate of a Gu Master who is attacked by his own Gu?
"do not want!"
Wu Gu was so frightened that he lost his voice.
Although the backlash from his natal Gu would not kill him, it was enough to take away half his life.
More importantly, he will lose the ability to come into contact with poisonous insects forever, which is more unbearable than death for Wu Gu, who is addicted to poisonous insects.
"Then you agreed?"
Jiang Xiaochuan glanced at him sideways with cold eyes.
"I...I promise."
Wu Gu's voice was dry and he had no right to bargain at all.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaochuan flicked his finger, and the pitch-black bone-eating centipede shot towards Wu Gu like a black line.
At the same time, he condensed the energy at his fingertips and pointed through the air to unblock several major acupoints on Wu Gu's body.
The Bone-Eroding Centipede re-entered his body, and Wu Gu breathed a sigh of relief when he felt the familiar cold power return.
He stretched his stiff body, then stood in front of Jiang Xiaochuan with his head down, looking dazed.
I just wanted to find a place to stay, but in the blink of an eye, I became a prisoner...
This huge gap made it difficult for him to recover for a while.
"Walk."
Jiang Xiaochuan stopped looking at him, easily carried the bulging sack on his shoulder, and said in a deep voice.
Wu Gu did not dare to disobey and followed him back to his residence silently.
