#395 - Kill the Silkworm Gu
Zou Ci's eyes widened, a fire of unwillingness seemingly burning within them. His face was twisted with anger and regret, filled with an intense, almost tangible sense of resentment.
He could no longer contain the emotions within him, and he roared to the sky:
"Ridiculous… ridiculous!"
The voice was shrill and despairing, echoing in the empty battlefield, filled with endless sorrow.
Only now did he awaken as if from a dream, fully understanding that he was like a puppet, constantly being played by the Demon in the Wind.
Recalling the past, his every move, every plan, seemed to be within the other party's calculations.
And today, he had been completely fooled, inexplicably engaged in a life-and-death battle with a powerful opponent like Li Xueqing, losing his life in the process. Everything seemed so absurd and ironic.
After shouting, Zou Ci's strength seemed to be drained in an instant, and his head slowly drooped. The head that was once full of ambition and fighting spirit was now unable to lift itself.
His body gradually lost its vitality, and he died from poisoning.
Nearby.
Zhu Ying also stared at Liang Jin with resentment, flames of anger and confusion burning in his eyes.
He had wholeheartedly wanted to capture Liang Jin, for which he had spent countless efforts and made numerous preparations.
But who would have thought that before he had even faced Liang Jin head-on, his life was already hanging by a thread, and he was about to die here.
This huge gap made him feel grief and indignation, and endless anger surged in his chest. He used his last strength and asked loudly:
"Xiong Ba! Who… who are you?"
"What… what force is behind you?"
At this moment, Zhu Ying only wanted to die with understanding.
In the last moments of his life, he eagerly hoped to know the sacred identity of the mysterious force behind Liang Jin, even if it was just to satisfy this last bit of curiosity.
Liang Jin looked at Zhu Ying with a calm expression and replied:
"I am a disciple of the Huasheng Sect."
"Of course, those standing behind me are all me."
Liang Jin's words were not false. He indeed had his main body and multiple clones behind him, but this truth was too bizarre, and how could Zhu Ying understand it?
In Zhu Ying's ears, Liang Jin's words were undoubtedly perfunctory and lying, and the anger in his heart was even greater.
Zhu Ying couldn't help but sneer, the laughter filled with ridicule and unwillingness:
"No matter who you are… no matter how powerful the Huasheng Sect is."
"Bu Shen… will definitely… avenge me!"
His heart was full of trust in Bu Shen. At this desperate moment, Bu Shen became his last spiritual sustenance.
After saying that, a creepy cracking sound came from Zhu Ying's neck.
Although he tried his best to grab the Heavenly Silkworm Gu that had burrowed into his neck, the Heavenly Silkworm Gu seemed to have spirituality, cunningly burrowing into Zhu Ying's bones, gnawing all the way through the bones and drilling towards his head.
The severe pain made Zhu Ying's body tremble uncontrollably. Soon, he fell to the ground, his eyes rolled back, his body convulsing uncontrollably, and painful whimpers came from his mouth.
Before long, with the last trace of vitality disappearing, he also died, ending his life as a famous constable of the Six Doors.
Liang Jin then went straight to Li Xueqing.
This Soul Jade was incredibly powerful. Liang Jin had only thrown it to Elder Li for temporary safekeeping before, and now he naturally had to take it back.
Li Xueqing stared at Liang Jin with anger and resentment, her eyes seeming to spew fire:
"I guessed wrong again. You really aren't from the Six Doors!"
Recalling Liang Jin's previous actions, he had been hiding in the dark for a long time. If he were really a spy from the Six Doors, he would never have been indifferent when Zhu Ying died.
At this moment, Li Xueqing was completely unsure which force Liang Jin belonged to, and her heart was full of doubt and vigilance.
She said sharply:
"Xiong Ba, I know it's easy for you to kill me now."
"But before you kill me, can't you let me die with understanding?"
"Tell me! Who exactly sent you as a spy?"
Li Xueqing was full of desire to know the truth. Even if she was about to face death, she didn't want to die in confusion.
Liang Jin looked down at Li Xueqing, sighed slightly, the sigh seemed to contain helplessness, and also seemed to contain pity.
Then, he turned and came to the corpses of Zhu Ying and Zou Ci, and began to carefully search them.
Zhu Ying's flying daggers that would explode when shot into the human body, and the Tiangang Soul-Locking Chain, were all rare treasures, and Liang Jin would naturally not let them go, finding them one by one and putting them away.
In addition, Liang Jin also found a token.
The main material of this token was fine steel, with a hard texture, but the surface was wrapped in a layer of dark black, exuding a mysterious aura.
On the front of the token, there was an eagle carved, the eagle was carved lifelike, the eagle's eyes were sharp and majestic, as if it could see through all the evils in the world, exuding a chilling sense of oppression.
On the back were engraved the three simple and unadorned characters "Six Doors", the handwriting was vigorous and powerful, and every stroke seemed to contain the majesty and mission of the Six Doors.
Obviously, this was the identity token of the Six Doors, and the person who could hold such an exquisite token must have a high status.
On Zou Ci's body, Liang Jin found a thick stack of silver notes, and a rough look showed that there were as many as millions of taels.
There were also some unknown elixirs, but these elixirs did not arouse Liang Jin's interest, and he threw them aside casually.
Li Xueqing watched Liang Jin ignore her all the time, the anger in her heart grew stronger, and she couldn't help but roar angrily:
"Xiong Ba! Say something!"
"Could it be that you think I, a dying person, will still pose a threat to you?"
Her voice became sharp because of anger, and it was particularly harsh in the silent battlefield.
Liang Jin finally heard this and returned to Li Xueqing.
He said helplessly to Li Xueqing:
"Elder Li, it seems that you have a deep misunderstanding of me. We are from the same sect, how could I kill you?"
Li Xueqing stared at Liang Jin, her eyes full of suspicion and disdain, she didn't believe Liang Jin's seemingly kind words.
When she and Liang Jin fought before, both sides made fatal moves, wishing to kill each other immediately.
At this time, Liang Jin suddenly said that he would not kill her, how could she believe it?
"Kill me if you want to, stop pretending!"
"How could I, Li Xueqing, be a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death?"
Li Xueqing said in a deep voice, her tone revealing a stubbornness and unyielding spirit.
Liang Jin stretched out his index finger, pointed at Li Xueqing, with a hint of teasing smile on his face:
"Look, you are judging a gentleman's heart with the mind of a villain."
"Elder Li, why don't you take some healing pills first, and then circulate your energy to heal your injuries for a while?"
"The way you look right now, I'm really afraid you're going to die."
Liang Jin knew very well that Li Xueqing's injuries were extremely serious at this time, and she could lose her life at any moment.
If Li Xueqing died, he would really have a hard time explaining to Yu Linglong when he returned.
Li Xueqing's eyes flashed with a hint of hesitation when she heard this, and her eyes flickered uncertainly.
She wasn't sure if Liang Jin really wanted her to heal her wounds, or if he was deliberately teasing her before killing her.
However, the spirit in her bones that would never give up easily made her decide to take a gamble.
She immediately grabbed a handful of pills and stuffed them into her mouth, and then began to circulate her energy, trying to stabilize her injuries and restore some strength.
Liang Jin turned his gaze to the corpse of Zhuying, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.
At this time, Zhuying's body was still twitching slightly. This was not because Zhuying was still alive, but because the silkworm Gu was still wreaking havoc in Zhuying's brain.
Liang Jin couldn't keep this silkworm Gu. It was one of Li Xueqing's trump cards, and keeping it would always be a hidden danger.
Immediately, Liang Jin slapped Zhuying's corpse, and a vast palm force surged out immediately, carrying a powerful impact, and was about to completely smash Zhuying's corpse.
The next moment, a strange thing happened.
Zhuying's corpse suddenly jumped up from the ground, and like a beast, used both hands and feet, and jumped away.

"Boom!!!!"
Liang Jin's palm force actually hit empty, and the powerful palm force hit the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust.
"Hmm?"
Liang Jin frowned slightly, his heart full of doubts, and looked towards Zhuying's dead body.
Zhuying's dead body was now lying on the ground on all fours like an animal. His eyes had already turned white, without any vitality, and his mouth was weakly open, and even his tongue was drooping from the inside, obviously dead beyond redemption.
But this dead body was still able to move!
Even when it sensed danger, it could avoid it on its own.
This scene was enough to make people shudder.
Li Xueqing, who was healing, suddenly opened her eyes and questioned sharply:
"Xiongba, what are you doing?!"
Her voice carried a hint of panic and anger.
Liang Jin stared at Zhuying's corpse and replied without turning his head:
"Elder Li, didn't you see the corpse fraud?"
"I'm slaying demons and eliminating evil."
As Liang Jin spoke, he waved his hand again and grabbed towards Zhuying's dead body, determined to solve this strange trouble.
Li Xueqing hurriedly stopped him:
"Stop! That's not a corpse fraud, it's my Gu worm controlling the corpse!"
"Stop it for me! If you hurt my Gu worm, I'm not finished with you!"
She was anxious, this silkworm Gu was crucial to her and must not be lost.
But Liang Jin wanted to destroy all of Li Xueqing's trump cards, so how could he easily stop?
When he grabbed it, a vast internal force immediately generated around Zhuying's corpse, forming a powerful aura, firmly controlling Zhuying's corpse.
Zhuying's corpse slowly floated in the air. Under this powerful force, it had nowhere to exert its strength and could not move.
Although Zhuying's corpse could move at this time, its strength was only equivalent to a fifth-grade martial artist. Naturally, this level of strength could not resist Liang Jin's power.
Immediately, Liang Jin squeezed his palm, and a terrifying internal force immediately squeezed towards Zhuying's corpse.
"Bang!!!"
Zhuying's corpse was immediately squeezed and exploded, and countless flesh, bone fragments, and blood fell from the air, the scene was bloody and shocking.
However, a golden light suddenly窜out from Zhuying's corpse and rushed towards the corpse of Zou Cifeng next to it. It was the cunning silkworm Gu.
"Still want to continue controlling the corpse?"
Liang Jin's body was surrounded by a storm, and with the exquisite lightness skill of "Pacing the Wind and Chasing Shadows", he quickly rushed to the side of the golden light.
Although the golden light was extremely fast, Liang Jin's speed was even faster, and he instantly caught up with the silkworm Gu.
Liang Jin aimed at the silkworm Gu flying beside him, and then grabbed it.
Seeing this, Li Xueqing's eyes flashed with a hint of contempt:
"Looking for death!"
To dare to grab the silkworm Gu with his bare hands, wasn't this just seeking his own death?
The silkworm Gu's teeth were sharp and could easily bite through steel and drill into the human body.
If Liang Jin grabbed it like this, he would definitely be drilled into by the silkworm Gu and then killed!
At the thought that Liang Jin was about to court death himself, Li Xueqing's mood couldn't help but become excited at this moment, as if she saw the hope of revenge.
At this time, Liang Jin grabbed the silkworm Gu in his hand.
The next moment, a series of sharp metallic friction sounds continued to ring out, and sparks continued to emerge from Liang Jin's fingers.
Obviously, the silkworm Gu was frantically biting Liang Jin's palm, trying to break free.
However, this kind of biting did not end quickly, but continued constantly, which also showed the ferocity of the silkworm Gu.
Li Xueqing was shocked when she saw this:
"What?!"
She could naturally hear that the silkworm Gu was biting steel at this time, no! It was biting something tougher than steel, so it couldn't bite through it for a long time.
On Liang Jin's palm, a layer of scale patterns faintly appeared, revealing a mysterious aura.
"Your hand... how could it be like this?"
"This is not the skill of my Hualong Sect at all, how did you do it?"
Li Xueqing asked in disbelief, her heart full of doubts and shock.
Liang Jin naturally disdained to answer. He grabbed the silkworm Gu with his bare hands and then showed Li Xueqing a cruel smile.
Since he couldn't kill Li Xueqing, then he had to pull out all her claws and teeth so that she would no longer be a threat.
Li Xueqing seemed to know what Liang Jin wanted to do, and sneered again in her heart.
The silkworm Gu was like metal, invulnerable to swords and spears, and invulnerable to water and fire.
How could Liang Jin, a mere mortal, hurt it at all?
In her opinion, Liang Jin was just doing useless work.
But the next moment.
Liang Jin squeezed his palm, and a powerful force burst out instantly.
A sharp hiss was emitted from Liang Jin's palm, and then there was no movement.
When Liang Jin slowly spread out his palm, he saw that the silkworm Gu inside had been completely flattened, and the silkworm Gu's internal organs and blood had been squeezed out of its mouth, the scene was very tragic.
Although these internal organs and blood were highly poisonous, Liang Jin had the characteristic of [Invulnerability to All Poisons] and was not afraid at all.
Li Xueqing couldn't help but be stunned when she saw this, the smile on her face instantly froze, and then her face suddenly changed.
"Puff!"
A mouthful of blood actually spurted out of her mouth.
The silkworm Gu was the natal Gu she had refined, and it had a special symbiotic connection with her.
Now that the silkworm Gu was dead, she herself naturally suffered a strong backlash, and her body instantly became weaker.
