"Father, we've arrived"
Xiaodouding supported Chehong all the way to the thousand poison cave.
Che Hong leaned gently beside Xiaodouding, greedily sniffing the scent of her body. Upon hearing her words, a look of reluctance immediately appeared on his face.
"Let's go, let's enter together. You seemed to like it before."
Chehong said, with a slight smile, "let's go in together. You used to love it here."
At the words, Xiaodouding paused for a moment, but she did not refuse. Having loved bugs since she was young, she had no resistance to the bugs within the Thousand Poison Cave. She said and then supported Chehong as they walked in together.
Following the mouth of the cave all the way in, the deeper we went, the darker it became.
A short time ago, they reached a high platform, and below them was a cliff.
With the arrival of Xiaodouding and her companion, a multitude of glowing red eyes below the cliff, dense and numerous, only a glance was enough to strike fear into one's heart.
Xiaodouding subconsciously swallowed her saliva, gazing at the dense eyes below the ground, her eyes filled with delight.
If these insects were counted and put into her hands, they might help her break through to the first level.
Just as she was thinking, she saw Chehong, whom she was supporting, gently approach her, and his large hands began to behave improperly.
Xiaodouding was quick to react, taking a step back with an arrow's speed.
"Father, please behave yourself."
Xiaodouding raised her eyebrows, and her face looked somewhat unnatural.
"Ha ha, Little Moon, we have known each other for many years. Do you not know what kind of person I am?"
Chehong said with a smug smile.
Xiaodouding's face slightly changed, "Although I know your character, the bugs on your body can detect dangerous auras. Father, what exactly do you want to do?"
"Little Moon, you should know that my heart for you. In fact, I..."
"But I have already recognized you as my adoptive father."
"Ha ha, I know. You've known it from the beginning. It's just that your heart is elsewhere. That's why you refuse to accept me. However, the person you were thinking of has died. Are you still going to reject me?"
"What does your statement mean?"
Xiaodouding raised an eyebrow, and her eyes suddenly turned cold.
Chehong couldn't help but laugh coldly, "Ha ha, it seems you really are naive, Little Moon. From the very beginning, I have warned you that human hearts are not as simple as you think. Do you think I gave you the blood-sucking magic potion for simply wanting to teach Chen Mo a lesson?"
"Don't be naive. I can't wait for him to die. My people have already taken action, ha ha, and now, he should already be a cold, lifeless body."
Xiaodouding's eyes slightly turned, and she suddenly woke up, "Chehong, you have been fooling me all along. Actually, my brother..."
"That's right. It was all part of my plan. I was the one who created a rift between you and Chen Mo. Whether it was Che Tianqiong or Meng Yunshan, they were all my people. And that mysterious person who attacked you? That was someone I called in. Everything I did was to put on a show in front of you."
"Little Moon, Little Moon, I must say, you've been sheltered too well. It's no wonder you're still so innocent."
"However, that's for the best. With such an innocent you, it's easy for me to deceive you with just a few words."
Chehong burst into laughter and reached out to grab Xiaodouding, but she was cleverly avoided.
Then, Xiaodouding lightly struck the small bag at her waist, and countless bugs surged out instantly, rushing towards Chehong ferociously.
"Stay"
Chehong lightly exhaled a syllable, but the bugs that surged out suddenly stopped in their tracks, turning to surround Xiaodouding with fierce looks in their eyes.
"This... what is this..."
Xiaodouding's pupil shrank, and her eyes were filled with surprise and vigilance.
"You think these bugs you have come from where? They are all given by me, and I have gone to great lengths to get them for you. All the bugs on your body bear my blood and recognize me as their master."
"And you, you are merely a second-hand master. They only temporarily follow your commands. As soon as I speak, all of your bugs must obey me."
"Little Moon, you cannot defeat me."
Chehong, with his hands clasped behind his back, leisurely approached Xiaodouding.
"Chehong, why do you have to treat me like this? Why?"
Xiaodouding let out a loud roar.
"Why?"
"Because?" Chehong rolled up his sleeves, revealing the dense scars on his arm, "Your dear brother was right. I indeed have improper desires for you. I want to possess you and have you."
"However, he was not completely right. From the beginning, I indeed coveted your beauty and your talent, but later I discovered that you have something that is invaluable."
"That is your body, the Thousand Demons Sacred Body."
As Xiaodouding listened, her eyes involuntarily narrowed in thought. The Thousand Demons Sacred Body was something she had never heard of, so she was completely unaware of it.
I remember that Chehong has a ancient book on witchcraft and sorcery. It records many things, which allowed him to specialize in witchcraft over 300 years ago.
I was very interested in that ancient book, but I borrowed it several times from Chehong, and finally, all my efforts were in vain.
Even once, she sneaked into Chehong's palace to take a peek, but after being caught by Chehong, she was severely scolded and even given a lesson with his hands, something he had never done before. This is why Xiaodouding has dared not to covet that ancient book even today.
Perhaps, the ancient book records the so-called "Thousand Demon Sacred Body" that Chehong mentioned now.
"Do you know why I never let you enter this Thousand Poison Cave?"
Chehong asked with a smile.
Xiaodouding didn't understand and stared at Chehong quietly.
"That's because your physique is too powerful. If the bug that is not recognized by its master smells your scent, it will serve you."
"If you were to enter the Thousand Poison Cave, all my years of effort might be destroyed."
"Then why do you dare let me enter today?"
Xiaodouding looked at Chehong puzzled.
"Ha, the reason I dare let you in is because I have made all the bugs in the Thousand Poison Cave recognize me as their master."
Chehong said, and his sleeves had already been rolled up to his shoulders. His arms were full of wounds, with blood spilling out, looking terrifying.
Xiaodouding's expression changed, and she suddenly realized what was going on. She couldn't help but exclaim, "You're mad!"
While a sorcerer can make bugs recognize them and control them, each time a bug recognizes a master, it requires the expenditure of some flesh and blood. Generally, a sorcerer who can raise tens of thousands of bugs is already very powerful.
And for someone like Xiaodouding, who is at the second-grade level, the maximum number of bugs she can have is around ten thousand. Any more, her body will not be able to support it.
Chehong is also at the second-grade level, so he is the same.
However, the bugs within this thousand poison cave must be in the millions, if not tens of millions.
If Chehong has already made them all recognize him as their master, he would have lost half his life.
"If I could get your body, all my efforts would be worth it. Little Moon, you should now understand my intentions."
Chehong's smile became increasingly savage, and his eyes were filled with greed as he stared at Xiaodouding, taking step by step towards her.
Flash
A red, shadowy figure leaped out of Xiaodouding's body and fiercely rushed towards Chehong, lunging to bite him.
Pffft
Chehong acted swiftly, grabbing it with one hand, and a mouth suddenly grew on his palm, devouring it completely.
"Little Moon, you are still so innocent and foolish. Do you really think I can't see through such a trivial trick?"
"From the moment we met, every move you made was under my control. I know all of your cards."
"Your cards are also gone, and now it's your turn...…"
