Chen Qing immediately ran behind Ma Hehua and the others when he realized something was wrong.

A bone-chilling cold swept over her entire body. She...she seemed to remember...she almost died, but survived.

Looking up suddenly, I noticed that the four people's expressions had changed.

Not only did his body begin to rot rapidly, but he also looked completely bewildered. Jiang Xiao's body wasn't rotting, but it wasn't much better.

"What? You, a living person, have been in these mountains with these inhuman creatures for so long, haven't you noticed anything strange?" Ma Linghua spoke up at this moment.

She looked at Jiang Xiao with cold eyes. How did these foreign things manage to reside in a person's body?

Chen Qing shook his head, realizing he couldn't remember anything again. But then, Ma Lihua said, "Grandma, should we save her?"

Chen Qing didn't understand her words, but Jiang Xiao's next actions filled her with immense fear.

Jiang Xiao's face and brain were split in the middle, and a monster's head emerged from the middle of his neck.

"What...what is this?" She almost forgot to breathe.

Before she could even react, Ma Hehua and the others grabbed her and ran 100 meters away.

The others pursued relentlessly, and at the crucial moment, Chen Qing suddenly pushed Ma Lihua away.

After regaining her senses, she looked on in disbelief. "No, I didn't do it, it wasn't me." She shook her head frantically, almost delirious.

When Ma Hehua saw this, she was furious. Without saying a word, she pushed her away. They were only a step away from the intersection, but it felt like they were a faraway place.

At this moment, Ma Lihua stopped running. Honestly, she just wanted to keep a low profile, but everything was coming her way.

Chen Qing trembled all over, clutching his head, "No...it wasn't me, I didn't push him."

Looking at her expression, Ma Lihua asked without emotion, "Are you really sure you didn't mean it?"

Chen Qing was taken aback. "I...I don't understand what you're saying."

"Don't understand? Six people went on an expedition, one escaped from Gagong Mountain after being parasitized, three others were neither human nor ghost, and one successfully evolved. Tell me, how could you, a normal person, survive?" Ma Lihua's meaningful smile rose again.

"Mother! I told her to take her out, otherwise it will be difficult to catch her later." Ma Lihua looked at her mother speechlessly.

"Well... I was just flustered because she dared to push you!" Ma Hehua smiled sheepishly.

"Laugh? You can still laugh?" Ma Linghua roared, and she immediately fell silent, sobbing! She was wrong, okay?!

"I felt something was off when I saw you last night, no, I should say it was your scent." Ma Lihua and the others have very sensitive noses; they can smell everything.

Chen Qing's eyes lit up at this moment, her green eyes sparkling as she looked at the intersection with a somewhat anxious expression.

"I want to get out, I want to get out! I can't have any more children, I can't have any more children! Master, I want to go find Master!" Chen Qing's voice became shrill.

She was then tightly held in Jiang Xiao's hand, and the mutated head stuck out its tongue and licked her face.

With a look of reminiscence, he said, "Chen Qing, don't run away, come with us! Look at me, I can live forever."

"No! No, I want to find my master." Chen Qing was agitated, and then Jiang Xiao suddenly pierced through his body.

She looked at him in disbelief. "No! No! I don't want to!"

Jiang Xiao's eyes were filled with greed, and then he stretched out his head to grab Ma Linghua as well.

"Pah! You beast, how could you do such a shameless thing in public? You're utterly shameless!" Ma Hehua watched as he staggered down, pinning Chen Qing down.

Chen Qing, who had been screaming, immediately became docile, sticking out her buttocks to accommodate him.

“The silkworm mother is the silkworm mother raised by the Gu Daoist. I never expected that it would actually merge with a human.” Ma Linghua’s expression changed drastically.

This silkworm mother is even more dangerous; it's not the kind that's harmless. The things raised by this Gu Daoist are always cruel and tyrannical.

"Pear Blossom, there's no use in capturing this thing. Why don't we leave?" Although Ma Linghua didn't know why Pear Blossom wanted to capture her, she was wary of the sorcerer Gu Daoren.

Moreover, the fact that the insect mother fused with the woman's body indicates that the Gu Daoist's cultivation had reached a level unknown to anyone.

Looking at the traces of divine power within Chen Qing's body, and that very familiar scent, Ma Lihua didn't want to give up.

The heavenly lightning wasn't supposed to strike her that day, but somehow, those ninety-nine bolts of lightning, governed by the rules, landed on her head. If she hadn't been so stubborn, she would have vanished into thin air.

As I was leaving, I caught a faint, pleasant scent, but then I thought about it and realized it was impossible.

One is another world, the other is the realm of gods. How could she possibly encounter them again from different dimensional worlds?

Ma Lihua felt she had discovered something incredible, something about her.

Could it be that I've killed too many gods, and they've set a trap for me?

The more she thought about it, the closer she felt to the truth. Damn it, it must be it. When she gets back, she'll go on a killing spree.

We should listen to her grandmother and go to Yunnan to get her health checked first, and then focus on her spiritual practice.

He drew his greatsword and slashed down Jiang Xiao's outstretched hand, his whole body radiating killing intent.

Jiang Xiao winced in pain, withdrew his hand, and glared at her fiercely.

Sure enough, this girl is no ordinary person. I tried to ambush her last night, but she kicked me ten meters away.

He wanted to eat but couldn't, so for now he'd let the insect queen get pregnant. When the time was right, he'd lead his insect army to invade the human world.

Because they were wary of the Gu Daoist, Ma Linghua didn't let Ma Lihua make a move. The group walked along the path, their figures gradually disappearing into the distance. In the mountains, they never believed in people, ghosts, or demons.

Therefore, even if they saw all of this, they wouldn't believe it.

Jiang Xiao looked at the three panicked people, a hint of a smile flashing in his eyes.

"You're all dead, just souls supporting your bodies. How about it? Want to serve me?"

He hadn't been gloating for long when his body was pierced, and sharp hooks were hanging upside down from Chen Qing's buttocks, which she had been hiding all along.

"You... pfft..." Jiang Xiao spat out green liquid, looking incredulous. "You... how could you evolve?"

Chen Qing's expression completely changed, and she looked at him with venom and hatred.

“You intruder, you ruined my master’s good time, you deserve to die.”

"Sizzle sizzle sizzle..." Her tail kept stabbing Jiang Xiao until he was completely dead.

Looking at the several wandering corpses that were neither human nor ghost, she ruthlessly stretched out her sharp claws and crushed their heads. Since she no longer needed these tools, she decided to destroy them.

The master had been preparing for this day for a long time. A slight smile appeared on her lips. "Miss Pear Blossom, you're now in the game. Just wait patiently for your master to devour you!"

Her slightly red lips, as if sucking human blood, stared at the barrier at the crossroads. She felt a slight pain in her heart, unable to leave the cage her master had placed in her, but she believed that her master would remember her.
