“Little guy, this Gu King is extremely rare and a great tonic. Are you sure you don’t want to eat it?” Ye Xianya turned her head and asked with a smile.

"But...but this is too disgusting!" Zhengzheng glanced at the silk-pulling Gu worm that she had thrown onto the table and felt a chill run down her spine.

It has never eaten insects in all its life.

"The Gu-raising technique of the Zhuwu Kingdom seems powerful, but it actually consumes the essence and spirit of the Gu-raiser. This Thread-Pulling Gu King can evolve from an ordinary Gu worm into a Gu King, while the Qingzhu girl who raised her only had half of her face rotten and her body is still healthy. She has not been drained by the Thread-Pulling Gu King, which shows that she eats a lot of good things every day, including rare and precious herbs. If you eat this Thread-Pulling Gu King and absorb the essence contained in its body, you can reduce your cultivation by at least seven or eight years."

Ye Xianya laughed as she spoke: "This thing looks disgusting, but it's mostly pure energy, equivalent to you eating Vermilion Bird Fruit for another ten or eight years. Are you sure you don't want to eat it?"

"Sister...you're so mean!" Zhengzheng was on the verge of tears.

The wicked older sister is deliberately tempting it.

Knowing full well that it really wants to improve its strength and hopefully become a celestial beast in the future, it still said such things to provoke it.

The prospect of saving it eight or ten years of cultivation was incredibly tempting!

Zhengzheng moved her little paws and slowly moved towards the table.

Never mind, to increase its strength, it's just a bug, it'll swallow it with its eyes closed!

A magnificent golden eagle, would it be afraid of a tiny insect?

Ye Xianya was amused by it.

This little guy is getting cuter and cuter.

It wasn't in vain that I used my mystical arts to separate this silk-pulling Gu King.

If it weren't for feeding Zhengzheng, she would have killed Qingzhu and the Pulsating Silk Gu King together.

"Wait!" Qingzhu said while coughing up blood, "As long as you are willing to return the Silk-Pulling Gu King to me, I will agree to whatever you ask for."

She has cultivated for over twenty years, devoting all her efforts to the Silk-Pulling Gu King. Her strength has completely merged with the Silk-Pulling Gu King. If the Gu King dies, although she, as its master, can use secret methods to prolong her life, she will be a cripple for the rest of her life, without any strength left.

She will likely spend the rest of her days bedridden, suffering immensely.

"Are you crazy? My senior sister is the daughter of the abbot of Biyun Temple, and her father is a prince of Zhuwu Kingdom. He is very likely to inherit the throne in the future. How dare you steal her Thread-Pulling Gu King?" Fu'er couldn't believe what she was seeing and couldn't help but exclaim.

"The abbot of Biyun Temple had a daughter with a member of the royal family of Zhuwu Kingdom. Isn't this colluding with foreign tribes? If it were in the past, she would not only be disqualified from continuing to be the abbot of Biyun Temple, but would also be expelled from the sect and even from the Great Yan Dynasty. This world... is indeed not the world it used to be. The ten major Taoist sects have also fallen."

After Ye Xianya finished speaking, she looked at Zhengzheng beside her and said, "Little one, are you going to eat or not? Didn't you see that they threatened me? If you really don't eat, then I'll return the Silk-Pulling Gu King to that Qingzhu girl."

Upon hearing this, Zhengzheng flew over without saying a word, hooked the Thread-Pulling Gu King with her claws, and swallowed it whole.

"Don't just stand there like an idiot. Quickly use the power within your body to refine it. Don't waste this pure power," Ye Xianya said softly.

"Okay!" Zhengzheng, who had already transformed into the size of a sparrow, nodded her little head and immediately mobilized all her strength to refine the Thread-Pulling Gu King.

The next moment, Qingzhu felt the connection between herself and the Thread-Pulling Gu King break. Unable to bear the backlash, she suddenly fainted.

"Senior Sister!" Fu'er shouted.

"Don't rush, you're next!" Ye Xianya turned to look at Fu'er and said coldly, "You two sisters have hunted down many cultivators outside in recent years in order to raise the Silk-Pulling Gu King. You used their treasures and blood essence to raise the Gu. You are guilty of many sins and deserve to die."

Fu'er was somewhat frightened upon hearing this; she never expected that the little girl in front of her would even know this.

"The Gu Masters of the Zhuwu Kingdom all use their own blood essence to raise Gu. In order to prevent their bodies from being drained by the Gu worms, the Gu Masters will try to eat some highly nourishing things. Now that the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is scarce, without spiritual energy to support the depletion of the body, they can only find another way. Your senior sister absorbs the blood essence of cultivators to replenish her own depletion. What else is she but an evil cultivator?"

"You...you're that little girl in the capital who's known as the best fortune teller in the world?" Fu'er asked, her eyes wide.

A young fortune teller with exceptional skill arrived in the capital. In just two months, she became incredibly popular, so much so that the ten major Taoist sects have seen a significant decrease in visitors seeking her services in the past month or so.

She had heard her senior sister Liang mention this matter a few days ago.

At the time, she was thinking that once her senior sister successfully underwent the face transplant, the two of them would go to the capital to meet that young girl.

Unexpectedly, the person was standing right in front of her.

"Looks like you're not stupid after all!" Ye Xianya sneered. "Quite a few girls have gone missing in the capital. Of course, their parents will look for them. I'm paying people to solve their problems. Since I've taken this divination, I have to take full responsibility."

“How much silver did they give you? I’ll give you ten times, a hundred times!” Fu’er shouted.

"It's not much, just ten coins for a divination. However... I made a special trip out today to help them resolve this trouble, so I'll definitely have to pay more. If those ladies have enough money, they can give me another tael or two, and that should be enough. If they're short of money, they can just give me whatever they want," Ye Xianya said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Fu'er's eyes widened in disbelief.

That brat, all for less than a tael of silver, she came to cause trouble for the two sisters.

"Although this world is lacking in spiritual energy, the rules that must be followed must still be followed. Those who do many evil deeds will surely perish. Since you have sown the seeds of karma, you must pay the price!" After Ye Xianya finished speaking, she waved her hand, and a ball of blazing flames instantly enveloped Fu'er and the unconscious Qingzhu.

The two didn't even have time to scream before they were completely engulfed by the peculiar flames.

Upon seeing this, Zhengzheng, who was absorbing the essence of the Silk-Pulling Gu King, couldn't help but swallow hard.

My sister is amazing... no... she's terrifying!

Fortunately, it was a spirit beast and not a demon beast, otherwise it would have been dead long ago.

"This kind of harmful evil cultivator doesn't deserve to be reincarnated; he only deserves to be reduced to ashes." After saying this, Ye Xianya gently rubbed Zhengzheng's head: "Let's go out!"

"Sister, Qingzhu is the daughter of the abbot of Biyun Temple, and Fu'er is also their personal disciple. If we just kill them like this, won't it cause trouble?" Zhengzheng asked tentatively.
