Chapter 637: Chapter 637: The Plan to Wipe Out the Family
At four in the morning, the Blue Moon was hanging high, casting a faint, weapon-like sheen over the sky. Despite the clear weather, everything still appeared hazy, as if shrouded in thin clouds.
At that moment, two sleeping centipedes, corrupted by their greed, suddenly opened their lantern-like eyes. Their eyes, initially red, had turned pale blue under the dim light of the Blue Moon.
Though Li Yao had been expecting this transformation, seeing it firsthand still left him feeling a chill down his spine.
Hiss hiss…
The two gigantic pairs of eyes turned towards Li Yao. Startled, he quickly averted his gaze and huddled against a stone wall, holding his breath.
These colossal worms, comparable to mountain pythons, withdrew their gaze.
Then, their eyes shot out four rays of light, which landed on the grey worm eggs. The originally grey eggs also started to radiate a faint blue glow.
In this moment, their eyes held a hint of tenderness. Afterwards, their massive bodies burrowed into two dark and murky holes like a flash of lightning, disappearing from sight.
Despite their behemoth size, their movements were so silent that it was eerily strange.
Li Yao counted to thirty cautiously before peering at the spot where the two giant worms had been.
“I hope my information is correct, or I’m done for.”
Li Yao was a little nervous now. As great as his skills and strategies might be, he stood no chance against these high-level monsters. If they had not left, they could have killed him instantly.
Although he had tamed multiple serpents in the past, it was because they were restrained by the power of the ancient gods and due to some fortuitous circumstances. But these worms and other creatures wouldn’t be subdued as easily.
Li Yao crept cautiously towards one of the dark holes, only able to hear a faint rustling sound that was gradually moving away.
