The Xia brothers' worldview was once again challenged; they realized that there really are things in this world that defy science.
"Will these bugs be killed by deworming medicine?" Xia Wenlan asked her brother in a low voice.
"I don't know." Xia Wenyun was also a little hesitant. He should have tried feeding Xia Wenlan a few deworming pills before Master Lin removed the Gu from him.
"Ugh!" Yi Yue vomited repeatedly, noticing that her horizontal worms were becoming increasingly weak. She looked at Lin Zhiluo in horror: "What exactly did you do to me?"
"Of course, I'll destroy your ability to become a Gu Master," she said casually.
"No, impossible!" She glared venomously at Lin Zhiluo. "You think you can destroy my abilities with just that one talisman?"
"Yes, is it so hard to destroy your abilities?" She looked at Yi Yue with confusion. If she had regained half of her abilities, she wouldn't have cut her finger to draw the talisman today.
The thought of returning to the Lin family and facing that group of demons and monsters gave her a headache.
Time is tight and the task is heavy. Her abilities haven't recovered yet, and the day she has to go home is getting closer and closer. How will she protect herself in the future?
Thinking of this, she let out a long sigh.
The two Xia brothers didn't understand why Master Lin suddenly sighed. Was it because this woman's problem was difficult to solve?
Xia Wenlan pulled her brother, saying, "Brother, Master Lin has helped our family so much this time, you must thank her properly."
"Do you need to tell me that?" Xia Wenyun rolled her eyes at her younger brother.
When he was young, his grandfather told him that China has produced many talented and extraordinary people, and that if he couldn't befriend such people, he shouldn't offend them either.
Often, with a few simple tricks, they can cause a family to quietly perish.
“Even if I lose my powers, my mother won’t let you off the hook,” Yi Yue said.
Lin Zhilu shrugged: "It's hard to say who won't let whom off the hook. I can't comment on a mother who could raise a daughter like you."
Suddenly her eyes lit up, and she squatted down on Yi Yue's body, groping around haphazardly. The insects avoided her hands when they saw her, and some of the bolder ones even scurried onto her hands. She wasn't afraid and just threw them at Yi Yue.
Yi Yue vomited intermittently. When she saw Lin Zhiluo rummaging in her pocket, she snapped at him, "What are you doing?"
"I was just thinking, why don't we call your mother over too, and see how to resolve this?" This would save her from having to go through all the trouble that Yi Yue's mother might cause her later, or for her to go through all the trouble to cause trouble for Yi Yue's mother.
As for whether or not to destroy her mother's abilities, it depends on what kind of person Yi Yue's mother is.
She found Yi Yue's phone, unlocked it with her face, and then opened the green bubble. She easily found a contact named "Mom".
She made a video call, and the other end answered quickly.
Her smiling face suddenly turned serious. She saw her daughter lying on the ground, vomiting blood containing the worms she had been raising. If she continued to vomit, she might expel all the worms from her body.
"Who are you?" Yi Zizhen asked coldly, "Why did you want to harm my daughter?"
"Madam, your daughter is in my hands. If you want to save her, come to this place." After saying that, she hung up the phone and sent the Xia family's address to Yi Yue's mother.
She looked up at the two Xia brothers and said, "You don't mind me resolving this trouble here, do you?"
"No problem, no problem at all. Master Lin meant well," Xia Wenyun quickly said. He hadn't expected Master Lin's after-sales service to be so good, resolving both big and small problems at the same time.
She saw that Yi Yue had vomited out most of the worms, but the last worm that came out of the blood was snow-white and still wriggling, standing out vividly against the bright red blood.
"Hmm?" Lin Zhiluo glanced sideways.
"Don't you dare touch it!" Yi Yue could only roar. The accumulated poison in her body, now that she had lost her powers, was making her feel terrible, a pain that penetrated to her very bones.
"Could you please bring me a glass container, chopsticks, and a brazier so I can deal with these things?"
Xia Wenyun immediately sent someone to fetch these things; they had all of these things at home, especially the brazier, the one they had just used to deal with the love potion was still burning.
Lin Zhiluo picked up the crystal-clear white worm with her chopsticks. Its plump, white body writhed, but shimmering golden light could still be seen inside.
"Is this your mother's Gu worm? Although it can't compare to the Golden Cicada Gu worm, at this rate, it could become a mini Gu King in two years."
This thing is very precious. She put the Gu worm in a glass jar, thinking that it might come in handy in the future.
Then she picked up the insects scattered around Yi Yue one by one and put them into the brazier.
"You, with such abilities, have to use them on a man."
She shook her head: "My junior sister said that this kind of Gu Master is the most useless."
She seemed somewhat nostalgic: "My junior sister also said that people who use Gu worms to harm others will eventually suffer a backlash."
If Yi Yue hadn't had such an extreme personality, she would have had a bright future.
"Sir, someone outside wants to come in. It's a middle-aged woman," said the Xia family's butler.
"Let her in," Xia Wenyun said.
He looked at Lin Zhiluo with some concern: "Master Lin, she must be Yi Yue's mother. What if she's more capable than Yi Yue?"
He glanced at the sizzling insects on the charcoal stove. Although they smelled deliciously, they didn't look appetizing at all.
Lin Zhilu patted her stomach, thinking, "I've been busy all night. Maybe I should go out for a late-night snack later?"
"Don't worry." Lin Zhilu patted the jar next to her: "These aren't insects that Yi Yue could raise. The things on this should be her mother's."
"That's good, that's good." He breathed a sigh of relief.
As soon as Yi Zizhen entered, she saw a girl squatting on the ground throwing the Gu worms that her daughter had painstakingly raised into the brazier next to her.
Her daughter lay pale-faced, but her hands were already turning blue. She knew that the Gu poison and Gu worms in her daughter's body had lost their balance, and the Gu poison had relapsed.
"Yueyue." She stepped forward and looked at her daughter.
"Mom." When Yi Yue saw her mother, it was like seeing her pillar of support.
"Yueyue, you!" Yi Zizhen looked at her daughter with heartache.
"Mom, she ruined my abilities. I can no longer control Gu worms. She also stole your natal Gu."
"Oh!" Lin Zhilu suddenly became interested. The insects in the transparent glass jar sensed their owner's presence and wanted to enter her body.
But the glass jar always blocked it.
"Sigh!" Lin Zhilu sighed. She had seen Yi Zizhen's face when she came in.
His brows were furrowed, he had many crow's feet around his eyes, his eyes were reddish-yellow, and his skin appeared thin.
She looked like the kind of person who was short-tempered, stubborn, and obstinate. The aura surrounding her was hazy and unlike the clear aura of others; it even had wisps of black energy mixed in.
It seems she hasn't done anything good over the years.
"What did my daughter ever do to offend you? How could you be so cruel?" If it weren't for the fact that the natal Gu was in her hands, Yi Zizhen would have already made her move.
