In the silent Vatican City, within a palace chamber.
LIU WuXin's eyes were slightly closed, his face pale, as if it were in a state of hibernation, yet he had shown no signs of waking up for many days.
ChenMo held the TianJi raw stone with one hand, gently stroking her cheek with the other. The two worms, Daobao and Xiaobao, slowly crawled out of her body. They shook their small heads and then returned to ChenMo's body.
In another part of the palace chamber, Yun Chunqiu was opening his eyes, his gaze fixed on the motionless Liu WuXin in front of him, filled with concern.
Although, both ChenMo and Little Bean were previously informed that the two worms, Daobao and Xiaobao, could not consume the toxins on Liu WuXin's body.
However, the two little guys have had successful cases on ChenMo's body. She pondered for a while and still wanted ChenMo to try.
Although ChenMo had already come to a conclusion in his heart, for Liu WuXin's sake, he decided to try the last-ditch effort.
Just then, the result of this test was exactly what he had predicted.
"I'm afraid we'll still need the Holy Worm."
ChenMo heaved a light sigh, helplessly shaking his head.
"There's no other choice."
Yun Chunqiu heavily exhaled and then looked at ChenMo, "People are all waiting for you in the side hall. Whatever you want to say next, just tell them."
"Okay."
ChenMo lightly pronounced a word, then turned and walked with Yun Chunqiu to the side hall. At this moment, there were not many people in the main hall besides a few Holy Nuns, Little Bean, Fu Biao, and Zhang Long were present.
"ChenMo, how is it going?"
After seeing ChenMo emerge, the several holy maidens all rushed forward eagerly, asking with worried expressions.
ChenMo shook his head gently, and the expectancy on the faces of the holy maidens vanished, replaced by a feeling of helplessness.
"It seems we have to rely on the Holy Worm."
Little Bean, as if expecting it all along, said, "Since the Holy Worm is in Miaozhou, there's no time to waste. Brother, let's go there together..."
"I heard there are many experts in Miaozhou, and this time, your master and all of you are going to search for the Holy Worm. You will certainly encounter many obstacles. Although I may not have much talent, I can still protect you."
Fu Biao pondered for a moment and stood out, looking like he was ready to die with ChenMo.
Zhang Long held the half-broken sword, unusually not drinking today. His eyes were fixed on ChenMo, his expression serious, "Among the nine states, the Youzhou is in the east and the Miaozhou is in the west. The fastest way to go to Miaozhou is to cross the central state. Those who came here to quell rebellions in the past were all from the central states. Their goals were not yet achieved because of Master..."
"Master, Zhang Long may not be talented, but he can protect you at all times during this journey. He can prevent those malicious people from acting rashly."
This statement was met with enthusiastic affirmations from the other holy maidens, who all stood up to promise their support, displaying a determined stance to ease ChenMo's worries.
This journey, they were not only to ensure ChenMo's safety but also to ensure his safe arrival in the Central State, and then retrieve the Holy Worm to save their lord.
Both in terms of sentiment and reason, they should not just stand by and watch. Even Yun Chunqiu stepped forward to propose that he should also accompany them.
However, ChenMo rejected all of their proposals.
"I know that the way to this journey passes through the Central State, which will certainly be dangerous. But, as soon as I leave Youzhou, the True Fire Hall of Central State, the Cold Wind Valley, the Thundering Storm Academy, and even the Thousand Blade Sect might resume their activities. If all of you accompany me, who will protect Tianmo Temple and take care of WuXin?"
ChenMo's words left everyone speechless.
"No, why not let me go?"
Just then, Mu Qiu Ge opened her mouth after a long silence. Her delicate body, hidden under a black robe, moved slightly. The eyes under the tangled black hair were particularly serious.
As a level three cultivator, her strength was undoubtedly not as great as Fu Biao, Zhang Long, and Jiang Dongli.
But, she is proficient in witchcraft and can help solve many troubles for them. Moreover, she is originally from Miaozhou, so she is very familiar with the situation there. If she follows along, she will definitely be able to alleviate ChenMo's worries and difficulties.
Zhang Long, Fu Biao, and Jiang Dongli are all at level two, they are the major war power protecting Tianmo Temple and the capital city. They cannot be left behind.
And Mu Qiu Ge is not a main fighting force; accompanying ChenMo will not have a significant impact on the overall situation.
After thinking for a moment, ChenMo nodded slightly, "Mu Qiu Ge is originally from Miaozhou, and if she follows us, she can indeed help a lot. Moreover, Miaozhou is the origin of witchcraft and sorcery, and if she goes there, she might even gain an opportunity to break through to level two during her journey."
"Mu Qiu Ge, please accompany me on this journey"
"All right, all right."
Mu Qiu Ge nodded slightly, and a delighted expression appeared on her face.
Little Bean pouted slightly and occasionally glanced at Mu Qiu Ge's small expressions, feeling that the woman was somewhat peculiar.
The look in ChenMo's eyes towards Mu Qiu Ge was somewhat strange.
"Miaozhou is the main base of the Heaven Punishment. If we go there, we will definitely be at odds with them. When they were in power, they targeted us everywhere and even came to cause trouble with Fire Cloud Sage and others."
"Now, we are going to Miaozhou. It's likely that they will be unfriendly towards us."
ChenMo was thinking silently in his heart. The Heaven Punishment had caused them trouble more than once before. This trip to Miaozhou would definitely be to eliminate the Heaven Punishment. It would not only get rid of a big troublemaker but also cripple Zhang Tianlin, who was manipulating everything from behind.
"Chen Gongzi, there is a person named Miao Feiyu outside the imperial city who wants to see you. He says that he is an old acquaintance of yours..."
At this moment, a guard suddenly ran into the palace and reported.
Upon hearing this, ChenMo's eyes lit up instantly. If Miao Feiyu hadn't come looking for him, he would have really forgotten about this person.
His curse magic is very powerful. Just with a level four body, even a level two cultivator would be defeated by him.
Had it not been for him, they would have had even more trouble dealing with Zhang Tianlin.
"Hurry, invite him in."
ChenMo excitedly ordered, and the servant hurried away. In no time, he led two people into the room. They were Miao Feiyu with his porcupine hair and his ex-lover, Su Qin.
As soon as Su Qin entered, she acted like a curious baby, looking around with wide eyes. The unfamiliar environment and people made her nervously clasp Miao Feiyu's shirt sleeve.
But when her gaze fell on Little Bean, she immediately showed an excited smile, "Big sister."
After speaking, Su Qin let go of the hand, and hurriedly ran over to Little Bean.
Little Bean had once saved Su Qin from the imprisonment of the Heaven Punishment, so she had a great liking for Little Bean.
After the reunion, there are naturally many topics to discuss. Su Qin hugged Little Bean's arm and chatted nonstop.
Miao Feiyu looked at Su Qin affectionately, "We have important things to talk about. Go play with her first..."
Looking at Miao Feiyu and then at Little Bean beside her, Su Qin nodded sweetly, "Okay, but you have to come find me later, okay?"
"Don't worry, I promised not to leave you behind."
Miao Feiyu stepped forward and petted Su Qin's head affectionately, his face full of smiles. However, when Little Bean pulled her away, the smile on his face turned into a cold sneer.
Miao Feiyu turned to look at ChenMo, "I heard you're going to Miaozhou?"
"Yes."
"Take me with you. This time, I will help you kill everyone from the Heaven Punishment."
