Chapter 798 Gu Girl
Listening to their conversation, Zhou Wen understood that the Dugu family's previous guess was correct. It was not the Gu worm that killed people and dug out babies, but people from the Xiao family.
They trained the baby into Gumanli and promoted it to the god level.
Zhou Wen’s understanding of Gu Manli is very limited. He doesn’t know how Gu Manli grew up. It seems that the Xiao family has tried every possible means.
Now they are unable to control Gu Manli, so they want to use Wang Chan to refine another Gu Manli to restrain the Gu girl Gu Manli.
"The Xiao family is so vicious. In this era, there's nothing wrong with wanting to become stronger, and there's nothing wrong with using all sorts of means, but if they are so vicious, they should be prepared to be treated the same way by others." Zhou Wen felt murderous.
Zhou Wen wanted to summon the Hanguang Sword to kill Xiao Liuqi and Xiao Tianfang first. These two people would definitely not be wrongly accused. As for the other members of the Xiao family, he would decide based on the situation.
Just as he was about to take action, he suddenly found that the girl was standing in front of him, as if trying to stop him from attacking Xiao Liuqi and Xiao Tianfang.
Zhou Wen looked at the girl in front of him and suddenly understood something. He thought to himself, "Could this girl be the Gu woman they transformed into Gu Manli?"
The more Zhou Wen thought about it, the more likely it seemed. The being enshrined in this Buddhist temple should be the Gu Manli, the witch. Then this strange girl might very well be the Gu Manli when she grows up.
Generally speaking, Gumanli will not grow up, but after Gumanli and Yuanqi Jue are combined, anything is possible.
"She is now controlled by the Xiao family. If I kill someone from the Xiao family, she will definitely become my enemy." Zhou Wen thought of this and did not take action for the time being.
The Gu girl was a pitiful person. If she had not been born with supernatural powers, she would not have been harmed by the Xiao family. Even her parents died tragically, and she was refined into Gu Manli before she was born. It can be said that her life was extremely miserable.
Zhou Wen wasn't sure if she would survive if he killed her master, so he decided not to do it for now.
Xiao Tianfang thought for a moment and continued, "Whether the Wang family has noticed or not, let's put Wang Chan's matter aside for now. Let's focus on capturing the Ice Silkworm Gu King first. If we have the Ice Silkworm Gu King, we won't have to rely so much on the Gu Girl's power."
"The Ice Silkworm Gu King is not easy to catch. I originally thought that with the help of the Gu Girl, I should be able to catch the Ice Silkworm Gu King. However, I realized that there is not just one Ice Silkworm Gu King but a pair, and the Gu Girl is no match for the pair of Ice Silkworm Gu Kings. We need to think of other ways." Xiao Liuqi said.
"How is the taming of that mythical blood scorpion Gu going? Can it be of use?" Xiao Tianfang asked thoughtfully.
Xiao Liuqi smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know why. The mythical insects we caught with the Gu woman are extremely difficult to tame. The three before us took so long to tame, but they just refused to yield. This one is a little better, but I can only control it with difficulty now. I can't control it by heart yet."
"That should be enough. Take it with you and use it to distract the Ice Silkworm Gu King. As long as the pair of Ice Silkworm Gu Kings are separated, the Gu Girl should be more than enough to deal with one." Xiao Tianfang glanced at the Gu Manli on the altar and continued, "Get the Blood Scorpion Gu ready. We'll go tomorrow to avoid any further complications. Dugu Chong is also targeting the pair of Ice Silkworms. We can't let him get there first."
"I understand. I'll prepare it right away." Xiao Liuqi responded.
"Work hard, you will take over the position of the head of the family in the future. However, to be the head of the family, you must first have the strength to convince others. If you can successfully capture the pair of Ice Silkworm Gu Kings this time, you will be able to tame and control one of them." Xiao Tianzong said.
"Brother, you are in your prime..." Xiao Liuqi was overjoyed, but did not dare to show it.
Xiao Tianfang waved his hand: "I know my own business. In order to suppress and control the Gu girl over the years, my health has deteriorated day by day, and my spirit is also not good. The Xiao family will still rely on you in the future, and you should also take up the responsibility."
"Brother, don't worry, I will never let you down." Xiao Liuqi said quickly.
"Okay, go and prepare first. I hope that capturing the Ice Silkworm Gu King will be successful this time." Xiao Tianfang signaled Xiao Liuqi to pass it on.
After Xiao Liuqi left, Xiao Tianfang stood alone in front of Gu Manli, reaching out to touch the crystal cover outside, and said with a strange look on his face, "After all these years, I still haven't been able to completely tame you. Now my plan to seize Wang Chan and refine the Doom Gu Manli has failed again. If you don't surrender, then I have no choice but to take this last step. My body can't take it anymore. After I get the Ice Silkworm Gu King, I will completely erase your consciousness. Although that will greatly reduce Gu Manli's spirituality and abilities, you have pushed me into a desperate situation, and this is the only step I can take..."
Xiao Tian looked at Gu Manli there for a long time before leaving the yard.
From beginning to end, the girl stood in front of Zhou Wen, preventing him from hurting Xiao Tianfang.
"He hurt you like this, why do you still want to protect him?" Zhou Wen asked.
The girl remained silent, but Zhou Wen seemed to have figured out the reason and asked again, "Is it because he is your master? If he died, you would also be hurt?"
The girl nodded unexpectedly, as if to confirm Zhou Wen's statement.
Zhou Wen was overjoyed to see the girl finally react, so he asked again, "Is there any way to prevent you from getting hurt?"
The girl just looked at him and didn't answer.
Zhou Wen came to his senses and realized that the girl couldn't speak, so he pointed at Gu Manli on the altar and said, "If he transfers this to me, then after he dies, you won't be harmed, right?"
This time the girl responded and nodded again.
"Okay, I know what to do. Just wait for a few days and I will rescue you soon." Zhou Wen said to the girl, then turned and walked out of the Buddhist hall.
The girl seemed to understand what he meant and did not stop him this time. After Zhou Wen left the courtyard, he temporarily left the Xiao family.
The Gu girl was very magical, and Zhou Wen didn't want to see her buried with Xiao Tianfang, so he planned to get the Gu girl first, and then settle the score with the Xiao family for Wang Chan.
After Zhou Wen left the Xiao family, he returned to his residence and called Gu Shanshui. Fortunately, he had already arrived in Mengsa and his cell phone had a signal, so he answered the call quickly.
Zhou Wen asked some questions about Gumantong and Gumanli and confirmed that his plan was feasible.
In the evening, Dugu Chong and Li Xuan came back together. The situation looked very bad, and Dugu Chong's face looked particularly ugly.
Li Xuan didn't say anything sarcastic today, so Zhou Wen knew that Dugu Chong must have failed miserably this time, which was why Li Xuan didn't say anything.
