A pale green, illusory figure appeared before Qingyu's eyes. It was clearly the figure of a woman, but the details of her face were unclear.
"You're the one who really saved me?"
Qingyu spoke first and asked.
"Yes, you could say that."
The woman chuckled softly.
"Actually, I just guided the power within your body so that you could better absorb the power of the lustful insect eggs."
Upon hearing the words "desire insect eggs," Qingyu's pupils constricted slightly.
"You know about the eggs of the lust worm?!"
Qingyu was somewhat shocked. She had searched for information about the eggs of the lustful insects many times, but had never found anything.
She had also asked Lin Youyou to investigate, but even the information in Xinglong Pavilion did not contain any information about the eggs of the lustful insects.
However, the woman in front of me actually uttered the phrase "lustful insect eggs" on the spot.
"Haha, it seems the worm eggs in your body weren't planted passively."
The woman said.
"I'm curious, how did you get this?"
"As far as I know, the eggs of the lustful insect disappeared thousands of years ago and have never appeared since."
"sorry."
"Qingyu said softly."
"Although you saved me, I cannot tell you about it."
The eggs of the lustful insect were obtained by Yun Si Ning from Si Yi Qi's tomb, and Qing Yu did not want to reveal anything about her junior sister.
"It's okay, you don't have to tell me if you don't want to."
The woman's figure drifted and came to Qingyu's side.
"Oh right, I forgot to introduce myself."
"You can call me Qi Si, what's your name?"
"Green jade".
"Qingyu...a very nice name."
Qingyu could sense the gentleness and kindness in the other person's words.
Although she still had many unanswered questions, her tense expression gradually relaxed.
Qi Si stretched out his illusory palm and gently touched Qingyu's body.
"If I'm not mistaken, this insect egg has been developing inside your body for about six months."
"Under normal circumstances, the eggs of the insect will hatch six months to a year after being planted, and then be absorbed by the host little by little."
"But your situation is a bit special. Due to the severity of your injuries, the worm eggs inside your body have escaped your control and gradually become out of control, which is why they hatched prematurely."
Qingyu was still unconscious. She asked in confusion.
"What does my body look like now?"
"Do you want to see it? It might be a little scary."
"look."
Qingyu said without hesitation.
"Okay, then you should be prepared."
As he spoke, Qi Si gently waved his hand, and a bronze mirror slowly floated over, hovering above the green jade.
Through the bronze mirror, Qingyu could immediately see her current appearance.
"This is!"
Even though she was mentally prepared, Qingyu's heart still trembled.
She lay naked on a bronze bed, her entire body except for her neck and above covered by a viscous substance.
She looked closely and instantly felt a chill run down her spine.
Within that viscous substance were hundreds and thousands of milky-white maggots, which were attached to the skin all over her body.
But that wasn't the most terrifying thing for her. Several tentacles were twisted and wrapped around Qingyu's lower abdomen.
The tentacles spread outwards and intertwined, entwining around Qingyu's fair thighs.
"What's this?!"
"Don't worry, they won't hurt you."
Qi Si waved his hand, and the bronze mirror flew back to the corner of the wall.
"I told you to be prepared, your current appearance is quite visually striking."
Qingyu's lips were a little pale, but she still tried her best to calm her turbulent emotions.
"Are those... the eggs of the lust insects after they have hatched?"
"That's one way to put it."
Qi Si explained softly.
"These sticky things are a special substance secreted by the lust insect. It can numb your nerves, so that you don't feel any pain, but rather feel very comfortable."
"I see."
Qingyu understood why she had no sensation at all and felt very comfortable.
"The largest one hatched from the worm egg inside your body, and the other milky white worms are the offspring that hatched from it."
Upon hearing this, Qingyu felt a chill run down her spine and straight to the top of her head.
In just one week, the newly hatched lust worm had already transformed into this form, and even laid so many new worms on her body.
Will it eat me up little by little?
"Haha, I told you, they won't hurt you."
Qi Si's figure reappeared before Qing Yu's eyes.
"Under normal circumstances, the lust worm will indeed burrow into your body, gradually consuming you from the inside out, using your body as a new nest to begin breeding its offspring."
“But I helped you change that.”
"You...have changed?"
Qingyu became even more puzzled.
"That's right."
Qi Si examined Qingyu's current appearance as if admiring one of his masterpieces.
“I changed the behavior of the lustful insect, or rather, I changed the instinct of the lustful insect.”
"Now, its relationship with you is no longer parasitic, but symbiotic."
Symbiosis?
