Chapter 152 Where is the Gu King?

The woman's face turned pale instantly. She raised her hand to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth, her eyes full of shock and anger: "Who on earth dared to break my pig?"

Having said that, she forced herself to stand up and staggered towards the corner of the cabin.

In the corner stood an old wooden table, on which stood a peculiarly shaped black pottery jar with strange patterns carved all over it.

The woman, with trembling hands, slowly opened the lid of the clay pot, and a faint fishy smell wafted into her nose.

She kept muttering something, but as time went by, her expression became more and more anxious, and beads of sweat the size of beans kept rolling down her forehead.

"Could it be those people who broke into the forest?"

The woman muttered to herself, her eyes revealing a hint of ruthlessness: "No matter who it is, if they dare to ruin my good deeds, I will make them pay the price."

Then she took out a colorful insect from the pottery jar, placed it in the palm of her hand and stroked it gently. The insect seemed to sense the anger of its owner and twisted restlessly in her palm.

"Go, bring them back!"

The colorful insect received the command, and a strange halo of light appeared around its body. It then flapped its wings and flew up, disappearing from the window of the wooden house in the blink of an eye.

The woman stared grimly in the direction the worm was leaving, with a cruel arc at the corner of her mouth, as if she had already seen the intruders begging for mercy in agony under the torture of the worm.

At this time, the three people in the cave had not yet realized that a greater danger was about to come.

Wan Yan looked at the glass bottle with the insect in his hand, frowning: "This insect is so strange, someone must have put it in the rabbit on purpose. I wonder if other animals on the mountain have also been infected by the insect. We have to leave here quickly, if there are other animals infected by the insect, it will be troublesome."

Jia Luo also stared at the glass bottle. After a while, she frowned and whispered, "Fourth Brother, I want to go in and take a look. If the animals in the mountains are infected with maggots, we have to save them!"

"Lolo, it's not that we don't want to save them. If our guess is correct, there are too many of them. We can't save them with just the three of us. Let's go down the mountain and find professionals, okay?"

Wan Yan was extremely anxious at this time, fearing that this little girl would act impulsively and cause some trouble.

Jia Luo bit her lip, her eyes full of struggle. She knew that her senior brother was right, but when she thought of those innocent animals suffering, she really couldn't bear to just leave like that.

After a moment, she raised her head and looked at Wan Yan, and said softly: "Fourth Brother, are you sure there are people who are more professional than us?"

Wan Yan was speechless for a moment. Yes, it was possible that there would be no one else like him and Jia Luo down the mountain who were proficient in spiritual power and familiar with all kinds of supernatural things.

But the danger level of this forest is far beyond imagination. It is undoubtedly impossible for the three of them to save all the animals.

"But..." Just when Wan Yan wanted to speak again.

Jia Luo suddenly felt a chill running up from her feet. She subconsciously looked outside the cave and whispered, "Dad, Fourth Brother, I feel something is wrong. It seems like something is approaching."

Upon hearing this, Wen Lingyue and Wan Yan immediately stood up, holding their weapons tightly, ready to attack.

At this moment, a subtle but creepy "buzzing" sound was heard, and the sound became louder and louder, as if a group of things were surging towards them.

After a moment, they could see clearly that it was a group of thumb-sized flying insects. These flying insects were emitting a faint light and their eyes were red like blood beads. It was obvious that they had also been trapped.

The flying insects were like a black storm, sweeping towards the three people from all directions.

Wan Yan waved the peach wood sword, trying to drive away the flying insects, but these flying insects were extremely agile and easily avoided the attacks, and instead flew towards their exposed skin.

Wen Lingyue swung the dagger in his hand quickly, and each stab accurately hit the approaching flying insects. However, there were too many flying insects and he could not kill them all.

Jia Luo quickly took out a few talismans from his bag and muttered something. The talismans instantly caught fire, forming a short wall of fire, which temporarily blocked the attack of the flying insects.

And these flying insects seemed to have received some kind of order, and they kept attacking the firewall, burning one wave to death, and the next wave would take over.

At this moment, a melodious flute sound came from afar. The sound was gentle and melodious, but it also revealed an indescribable weirdness.

After hearing the sound of the flute, these flying insects seemed to be cast under a spell and instantly stopped attacking the fire wall. After circling in the air for a few times, they flew towards the direction where the flute sound came from and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

"It's that big brother!"

Jia Luo ran out of the cave as he spoke, and Wan Yan and Wen Lingyue followed closely behind him. Sure enough, a stern young man in white was standing five or six meters away outside the cave.

Jia Luo ran up to him, looked up at him with a smile, "Big brother, you saved us?"

"This is not the place for you, leave now!"

The young man in white had a frown on his face, his eyes were cold, and there was no warmth in his voice.

Jia Luo was not afraid of his indifference. She blinked her big eyes and asked curiously, "Brother, why are you here? And how can you control those insects?"

The young man in white turned his head slightly to avoid Jia Luo's probing gaze. He was silent for a moment before speaking coldly, "It has nothing to do with you."

Having said this, he turned around and was about to leave.

"Brother, don't go!" Jia Luo was anxious and reached out to grab his sleeve.

"Many animals in this forest have been possessed by insects and are suffering. We want to save them. Since you can help us drive away the insects, you must know how to break the insect spell. Please help us."

The young man in white paused, looked down at his sleeve being pulled by Jia Luo, his eyes flashed with a barely perceptible emotion, but he quickly returned to his indifference: "You can't save them."

Wan Yan stepped forward and bowed: "Brother, we know this matter is difficult, but since we have encountered it, how can we just stand by and watch? My sister is kind-hearted and cannot bear to see people suffer. I hope that brother will give us a clear way out for her sincerity."

The young man in white slowly glanced at the three people's faces, and when he saw their expressions, his heart seemed to be stirred.

"You can't do it!"

The voice of the young man in white was cold and hard, as if it carried a thousand-year-old frost, but his slightly trembling fingertips revealed a trace of the turmoil in his heart.

He suddenly shook off Jia Luo's hand, as if he wanted to cut off this momentary entanglement, and turned to leave.

“Big brother!”

Jia Luo's eyes were red with anxiety, and there was a hint of tears in his voice: "You can't bear to watch these animals suffer. If someone accidentally breaks in, will they be controlled like these animals? Can you really bear it?"

The young man in white paused again, his back stiffened for a moment, as if he was caught in some kind of struggle.

After a long while, he slowly spoke: "These insects are all raised by the Saint. If you want to get rid of them, you must get rid of the King of Insects. If you get rid of the King of Insects, the other insects will lose control and dissipate on their own."

Jia Luo's eyes lit up and he asked anxiously, "Where is the Dragon King? How can we find it?"
