But then I heard a hoarse voice.
"Don't move!"
Lin Shen: "Hmm?"
Lin Shen looked to his side and saw two pitch-black Gu worms staring menacingly at him.
One of them resembled a snake, but had two legs and a single horn.
There was another one, a jet-black centipede, whose carapace shimmered with iridescent black light.
These are two Gu worms. Just by looking at them, you can tell that they are of a high level.
When the high priest saw Lin Shen arrive, he said to Lin Shen, "Someone from the company?"
Lin Shen nodded.
The high priest chuckled softly, his voice hoarse: "You're really young. I'm almost reluctant to kill you, but you're quite something for finding this place."
Lin Shen retorted sarcastically, "You're too young to kill?"
"When you used infants to refine Gu poison, why didn't you notice how young they were?"
The high priest said, "It is their honor to become nourishment for the Gu-body Saint Child, and it is my honor to be able to cultivate me into a Gu-body Saint Child."
The high priest's voice was hoarse and devout.
Lin Shen snorted coldly, "Unorthodox methods!"
The high priest said, "Don't move. If you do, this black dragon Gu and the flying centipede will eat you up."
The Black Dragon Gu evolved from the Black Snake Gu.
The winged centipede is also a very high-level Gu worm.
If a normal Gu master can master one type of Gu, they can be called a Gu refining master.
If one can possess two types of Gu at the same time, then one can be called a master of Gu techniques.
However, this high priest insisted on using an infant to refine Gu, and he wanted to refine it into a Gu-body holy child.
Lin Shen's lips curled up slightly, his arm transformed into lightning, the current in his hand raging fiercely.
Just looking at the electric current, the flying centipede, and the black dragon gu made them retreat in fear.
And, instinctively, it wanted to escape back into the High Priest's body!
But the high priest went mad!
"Who let you come back!"
"Don't come back!"
"Black Dragon Gu!"
"Flying-winged centipede!"
"Go! Tear him to pieces!"
However, the fear of lightning among Gu worms is innate.
The high priest forbade the two Gu worms from returning to his body, so the two Gu worms quickly fled to the girl's side and tore open a hole in her neck and thigh, burrowing into her body.
The girl's body trembled with intense pain.
She watched this scene quietly. Perhaps because of the Gu-body Saint Child, the girl was also somewhat afraid of Lin Shen's lightning, but she did not know how to run away.
The high priest turned green upon seeing the Black Dragon Gu and the Flying Winged Centipede betray him!
The next moment, the high priestess removed her heavy hat, revealing her face.
Lin Shen was somewhat surprised when he saw it, because the high priest was actually a woman?
The woman with white hair looked to be around thirty or forty years old, with the marks of time on her face, yet one could still vaguely see the charm she had in her youth.
But why would a woman's voice be so hoarse?
The next moment, Lin Shen knew the answer. On the high priest's neck was a huge scar, deep enough to see the bone, which had not healed and contained wriggling worms.
The high priest removed his white robe, and beneath it, Lin Shen could not see a single patch of intact skin; it was covered in festering sores, scars, and countless ulcers.
No wonder she was able to master the Black Dragon Gu and the Flying Winged Centipede.
The high priestess went somewhat mad, and she said to Lin Shen in a frenzy, "Do you think I only have these two Gu?"
"They're afraid of dying! But I'm not!"
The high priest charged madly toward Lin Shen, who frowned slightly, a look of disgust flashing in his eyes.
Perhaps the high priestess had a painful past that made her this way.
But Lin Shen said: What's it to me!
Lightning condensed in Lin Shen's palm, forming a lightning spear!
"Instant Thunder Spear!"
.........
.........
Chapter 46 The Holy Child with the Gu Body Must Stay By My Side for Safety
The lightning spear, formed from condensed lightning, pierced through the high priest's body in an instant. The lightning power within the spear annihilated the high priest's life in just a moment.
The high priest's life was extinguished by lightning.
After the high priest died, the girl curled up on the ground, looking at Lin Shen with fear in her eyes.
Lin Shen remained silent for a moment.
As the lightning in his hand dissipated, a fleeting thought crossed Lin Shen's mind: to kill the girl.
Because Lin Shen knew that this girl was the future Chen Duo, and also the future Gu-body Saint Child.
She will kill Liao Zhong in the future.
She will learn to think for herself in the future.
In the future, the Gu-body Saint Child will be unable to control herself, and she will still die.
Since Chen Duo's fate is death, Lin Shen believes that it's better to let her die now, before she learns to think for herself.
However, Lin Shen saw fear in Chen Duo's eyes, and... a longing for "life".
Lin Shen softened; no matter what, Chen Duo was the victim.
Lin Shen had no right to take the victim's life.
If Chen Duo's Gu-body Saint Child physique will completely collapse in two years, and she will die in two years, then at least these two years will allow her to live like a human being.
Lin Shen took a deep breath, reached out his hand to Chen Duo, and said, "Come with me, I'll take you away from here, you'll be safe."
Chen Duo's eyes were filled with fear, yet she still reached out to Lin Shen and grasped his hand.
Just as their hands touched, a dark shadow emerged from Chen Duo's body and burrowed into Lin Shen's arm.
This is the primordial Gu.
The primordial Gu sensed the presence of a living person and thus attempted to burrow into Lin Shen's body.
However, Lin Shen's body was passively transformed into elements, and the sudden electric current made Chen Duo tremble.
However, she still did not have the right to let go.
Lin Shen took off his coat and put it on Chen Duo, then carried Chen Duo and left the Medicine Immortal Society.
This was the first time Chen Duo had been held in someone's arms.
This feeling is very peculiar.
Chen Duo closed her eyes, but two lines of tears streamed down her face.
Lin Shen noticed Chen Duo's tears. He glanced at her, but Chen Duo was trembling because she thought she was about to be beaten again.
Lin Shen sighed, "Sigh..."
Then, Lin Shen wiped away the tears from Chen Duo's eyes.
........
After Lin Shen left the Medicine Immortal Gathering.
Looking at the blue stone building behind me, I see it as the source of evil.
There are countless Gu worms inside.
Old Meng saw Lin Shen and asked, "Lin Shen, this is...?"
Lin Shen said, "Gu Body Saint Child, Lao Meng, give her your protective suit and gas mask."
"Oh, good."
Old Meng took off his protective suit and gas mask and gave them to Chen Duo.
The surrounding Gu worms, upon seeing Lin Shen and his group, none of them dared to approach.
Lin Shen, however, did not display any lightning.
There is only one possibility, and that is Chen Duo. Chen Duo's Gu body saint child physique is of a very high level among Gu.
Or perhaps it's because of the "Black Dragon Gu" and "Winged Centipede" inside Chen Duo's body.
Lin Shen said to Lao Meng, "Lao Meng, give Chen Duo a hug."
Old Meng asked, "And what about you?"
Lin Shen said to Lao Meng, "Destroy this place completely!"
Then, Lin Shen returned to the Medicine Immortal Society.
The next moment, lightning flashed throughout the entire Medicine Immortal Gathering, and in a short time, the Medicine Immortal Gathering was razed to the ground.
Lin Shen transformed into liquid lightning and stood atop the ruins of the Medicine Immortal Society.
Then, Lin Shen instantly appeared in front of Lao Meng.
