“Come to me.”
Bai Ming said lightly. Su Zipei walked to him and stood silently, lowering her head.
“What’s the current status of the Poisonous Mother Insect?”
Su Zipei immediately replied, “Everything is as usual. The Poisonous Mother Insect oviposited a batch of new eggs, which are about to mature.”
“Very good. After they mature, let them try their best to infiltrate into Tianhe Sect.”
As soon as Bai Ming’s words came out, Su Zipei looked up in surprise, “Isn’t it Ni Sect?”
“Well, do you want to take revenge?”
Bai Ming averted his gaze from the golden tower onto Su Zipei. Su Zipei trembled immediately and repeated that she dared not do that.
Bai Ming smiled silently and turned his head. Cold light flashed through his eyes.
When he understood Su Jiuzhou was actually Su Li, he knew that the Poisonous Fate Substitute Insects wouldn’t work anymore. Half of the weakened pneuma fortune of Qingshui Circle belonged to her, plus the bonus she got from Tianjiao List. So, the Poisonous Fate Substitute Insects couldn’t parasitize anyone of Ni Sect.
Most of the fifty holy sects’ Grand Elders were crippled by Su Li. Since the new poisonous insects couldn’t be used, he could only think of a solution from the old poisonous insects.
“Wake up all the Poisonous Fate Substitute Insectsof the remaining 27 sects in advance.”
When Su Zipei heard this order, she almost thought that she had heard it wrong. She couldn’t help but ask, “But it will cause fatal damage to those Grand Elders. They would not retain their methods, and their power would be low…”
“Do it,”
Said Bai Ming. Su Zipei immediately bowed before him respectfully and exited the hall.
Bai Ming stared at the golden tower and whispered to himself, “You want to take revenge… But the price is the death of all the holy sects in Qingshui Circle. I don’t know what the practitioners of Qingshui Circle would think of you if they learn about it.”
At this point, Bai Ming revealed a faint smile.
The easiest way to defeat a person was to attack the person’s heart. Just like Ling Qingshui. He was beyond redemption not because of his injury, but because of his…guilt.
“Master, something is wrong!”
At this moment, Su Zipei returned with a flustered expression, “Just now, the pneumas of the 27 Poisonous Fate Substitute Insects disappeared at the same time!”
The smile on Bai Ming’s face froze, and Su Zipei saw a hideous look on his face for the first time.
Blessings did not come in pairs and calamities never came singly.
After a while in the dark cave, the walls were full of eggs, and the bloody smell was disgusting. The altar, where the 27 eggs of Poisonous Mother Insects were placed, was a mess. The bright red blood spilled over the table, dripping slowly down the corner of the table. There was warm vapor rising from the table, which seemed to prove that this chaos had just happened not long ago.
Bai Ming stood at the table with a long face. Su Zipei followed behind him with a look of panic and horror.
What kind of punishment would be inflicted on her for her negligence?
“Ha-ha…”
In the silence, Bai Ming suddenly laughed out loud, “Knowing that I am Fate Ancestor, you still used the fate skill to cover up the nature’s mystery. Are you humiliating me?”
However, this group of Grand Elders of holy sects, who had been held in contempt by him before, succeeded.
After getting rid of the Poisonous Fate Substitute Insects, they used various methods which couldn’t be detected by him. In addition, he recently consumed a lot of energy for Su Jiuzhou… No, Su Li. Therefore, he didn’t find such a big omission.
How much did Su Li do in that? Was she intentional or unintentional?
Bai Ming’s eyes narrowed slightly, and he remembered that he didn’t close his eyes during the big explosion above Ciyun Building that day. He even saw that crazy woman stare at him and make a few mouth shapes.
“Are you satisfied with the interest that I charge you? We…will meet again.”
“Ha-ha…”
Su Zipei saw Bai Ming shrug his shoulders suddenly and chuckle. Then he laughed violently, which made her horrified.
It was a laugh that she had never seen before.
“Hahaha. That’s funny!”
After laughing, Bai Ming suddenly turned around and stared at Su Zipei, “Ling Xian was captured by Su Jiuzhou, and there is probably no hope for her to come back. You serve me here as a maidservant and have never complained for thousands of years. I can tell that you are sincere and loyal. Now I need a disciple who is the young generation to manage my Fate Palace. You were also a talent back then. Would you like to be the Young Lord of Fate Palace?!”
Su Zipei seemed to get an electric shock. She flushed in excitement and couldn’t control herself.
“Master, I pledge my life to follow you!”
…
Boom!
A green thunder flashed through the void, and a group of warriors exploring the black region instantly lay face down on the ground in horror.
“Too dangerous!”
“It’s dark!”
“Captain, we are in the depths of the Death Region. There couldn’t be survivors. Let’s go back!”
The woman called captain raised her head with bright and sharp eyes, and she spat, “Then go back!”
After the thunder trailed off, the woman stood up quickly. The others got up and patted their clothes covered with black debris. When they were about to leave together, the woman glanced at a black stone not far away inadvertently. She was puzzled and pointed to it.
“The shape of this stone looks like a person!”
While speaking, the woman ran over to confirm it. The others suddenly laughed.
“Does the captain become crazy when looking for survivors?”
“Yeah, that’s a stone. How can it be a person?”
“If it’s a person, I’ll eat shit…”
The woman walked to the black stone and touched the hard surface of the stone lightly. Then the stone made a dull echo after she knocked on it.
“Hollow?!”
The woman gave a serious look, and she slashed on the stone hard with her palm.
Crack!
The last person’s eyes widened, and he immediately stopped speaking. Then he ran to her and said, “Captain, let me help you!”
The others stopped joking and ran to her to help break the stone.
The captain looked serious and hesitated. She put her hand into the stone cave and pulled out a corner of black gauze. She immediately changed her face and ordered, “Hurry up! Clean up to the survivor’s head as quickly as possible!”
After a while, the stone was finally completely broken, and everyone was so tired that they sat around the “stone” panting.
“Damn it, this stone is too hard! I am a fifth-class warrior. It even exhausts me!”
The man with a big beard complained, and another tall and thin man waved his hand weakly, “Captain, take a look. Is there really a survivor inside? Do we break an ancient coffin?”
The female captain was obviously stronger. Her chest heaved slightly. She nodded and stepped forward with a strong wave. Then the thick black debris was immediately removed, revealing the face of the survivor in the black stone.
They saw a girl’ s paleface without a trace of blood. The black lotus mark on the corner of her eye made her even more mysterious.
The female captain was dazed, looking at the girl’s calm and beautiful face. She felt scared and broke out in a cold sweat.
Could it be that the coffin was carried up because of the ground shaking? Did they…really dig a terrible grave by chance?
“I have no intention of offending you. Please forgive me!”
The bearded man was not brave at all. At this moment, seeing such a horrible scene, he knelt on the ground in fright. The female captain couldn’t help but laugh, and the nervous atmosphere was eased a lot.
Another female warrior in the team looked at the girl’s face and couldn’t help sighing, “She is so beautiful. She must have a very high status. After such a long time, she hasn’t rotted at all.”
“It is likely to be the effect of Death Region.”
The tall and thin male warrior seemed to be very courageous. He observed the girl’s face and was about to force apart her mouth with his hands. “I heard that those noble people would put precious funerary objects in their mouths. Let me take a look.”
“Stop!”
The female captain woman was very unhappy about him. But it was too late to stop him.
The tall and thin male warrior stopped by himself. Then he slowly raised his head with a look of horror and said with a hint of crying, “Captain, can the dead breathe?”
Um?
As soon as these words came out, the bearded man seemed to lose his soul. He scrambled to the woman’s side, “Sister, the dead comes to life!”
“How sissy you are!”
The female captain laughed and walked over to pull away the tall and thin man who was petrified. She put her finger near the girl’s nose and then could feel the flow of the breath.
Was the girl still alive?
Was the person who had been sealed in the stone for a long time still alive?
The female captain stared at the girl’s face in a daze. Suddenly, she made a move that shocked the whole team.
“Captain, why are you carrying her on your back…?!”
The tall and thin men trembled his voice, as if he saw the scariest picture in his lifetime. The bearded man even slumped onto the ground.
“Since she is alive, I can’t just leave her here.”
The female captain raised her brows and scolded the bearded man, “Li Dazhuang, aren’t you a man?! I will drop you here if you still cry!”
The bearded man immediately wiped off his tears and stood beside the tall and thin man.
Another female warrior shook her head when she saw this. She walked to the female captain and couldn’t help but complain, “Dazhuang, sister is more terrifying, right?”
The female captain stared at the female warrior immediately. The female warrior stuck her tongue out. She poked the sleeping girl’s face on the captain’s shoulder and looked at the girl’s long and curly eyelashes with appreciation.
“So cute.”
When the bearded man and the tall and thin man saw this scene, they looked at each other in unison and both saw the helplessness in their eyes.
Women were all demons!
…
Four hours later, the team walked out of the black area, and a simple small camp came into view.
“Chief is back!”
Someone shouted, and everyone ran to the gate to greet them, with sincere loyalty and respect in their eyes.
The entire small camp added up to no more than one hundred people. They were all survivors who were fished out of the Death Region by the Chief. They would have been dead long ago if the Chief hadn’t stayed here to help them out. The Chief gave up the chance to go to large-scale camps.
“Look! Chief saves another one, a little girl.”
“She’s beautiful and clean. It seems that she wasn’t picked up from outside.”
“Really? Let me have a look!”
Seeing more and more people surround the girl, the female warrior immediately walked a few steps forward and shouted, “Don’t jack around here. There is nothing funny. Go to work!”
When everyone saw her, they changed their looks a little and dispersed quickly.
The female warrior smiled and looked back at the captain who was still carrying the girl. The captain shook her head helplessly, “You all go to rest.”
Then she hesitated for a moment and walked to her camp with the black-dressed girl on her back
