Chapter 311: Blood-Congealing Yin Insect
"Misfortune picks on the weak ropes, while ill fate seeks out the unfortunate souls..."
Lu Xuan watched the gentle female cultivator, who had completely lost herself, mechanically repeating her actions, and silently sighed within.
The scene before him resonated deeply with nearby wandering cultivators, stirring melancholy within their hearts.
"Friend Zhang has always been diligent in his cultivation, enduring hardships, all for the hope of one day breaking through to the Intermediate Qi cultivation level, to improve his family's livelihood. Yet, he never expected to end up in such dire straits."
"Poor fellow, leaving behind a pair of orphaned children and a widowed mother. How will they survive in this chaotic world?"Findd new stories at novelhall.com
"Let's not dwell on that for now. Let's see how this senior of the sect handles this matter. Whether it's the mischief of evil spirits or the Song family framing others, it's us wandering cultivators who will ultimately suffer the consequences."
The group murmured softly among themselves.
Lu Xuan's mind drifted momentarily, as if he could see himself still in the Linyang Fang Market.
With cultivation at the Intermediate Qi level, he had only mastered simple techniques like the Fireball Technique and the Rain of Spirits. Survival on the outskirts of the market was like walking on thin ice for cultivators like him.
For such wandering cultivators, their ability to withstand risks was almost nonexistent.
Establishing new secret realms or seeking great opportunities were things completely out of their reach. However, if they encountered any demonic beasts or evil spirits invading the market, they would be the first to face the danger, like weeds among the crops.
Unfortunately...
There was a hint of pity in Lu Xuan's eyes as he looked at the gentle woman still kneeling on the ground, continuously bowing for help.
"Friend, don't you feel any pain doing this?"
He suddenly spoke, his voice faint and gentle.
"It doesn't hurt..."
The woman raised her head, subconsciously replying.
With a crack, a lump of gray-black flesh fell from the wound on her forehead, rolling on the ground like a piece of dried meat.
At the sight of the dried flesh, the woman's pupils dilated suddenly, her eyes filled with disbelief.
She reached out slowly, intending to touch her own skin, but suddenly, several streaks of blood-red light flashed, piercing through her cheeks, neck, and other places, swiftly attacking Lu Xuan.
With a cold snort, Lu Xuan placed his right hand in front of him. Veins bulged, and there was a faint sound of a dragon's roar. His bones turned into translucent crystal, catching all the incoming blood-red lights!
As soon as the two met, Lu Xuan felt a strong itching sensation on his wrist, as if something was biting his skin, trying to penetrate it.
Lu Xuan's spiritual power surged, the light of the Purifying Talisman flourishing, covering a large area. The shattered blood worms, under the holy and pure light, continued to shrink, turning into black-red dried blood vessels.
From the sudden emergence of sinister blood worms from the woman's body to Lu Xuan's intervention, everything happened too quickly, so Song Yun and others only reacted now.
"Elder Lu!"
Song Yun, holding a flying sword in one hand and a dispelling talisman in the other, hurriedly rushed to Lu Xuan's side.
"It's all right, it's been completely resolved."
"The female cultivator also hid the same sinister blood worms in her body, just deeper, so you couldn't detect them."
Lu Xuan explained to Song Yun and the others.
"I didn't expect the movements of the evil spirits to be so elusive. Even at such close range,
it's hard to detect."
Song Yun said with lingering fear. If it weren't for Lu Xuan's appearance, it would have been difficult for the Song family's group to notice the anomaly inside the woman's body.
"What about these wandering cultivators?"
The patrol team from the Song family surrounded several wandering cultivators who looked panicked.
"Ao..."
A slight low roar sounded, and the Cloud-Stepping Lynx appeared silently on the ground. Guided by Lu Xuan, its indifferent emerald eyes stared at the wandering cultivators.
"We haven't found any abnormalities. Let them go."
The Cloud-Stepping Lynx had already reached the first-rank demonic beast stage and could keenly perceive the traces of evil spirits. After taking the Moonlit Grass, its bloodline had been promoted, enhancing its abilities significantly.
Coupled with the immaculate jade on Lu Xuan's neck, under the dual measures, they had not detected any signs of evil spirits. Lu Xuan ordered the Song family cultivators.
"Thank you, Senior! Thank you, Senior!"
The several wandering cultivators felt relieved, their knees weakened, and they couldn't help but kneel down, bowing their heads repeatedly in gratitude.
"..."
Lu Xuan saw this familiar scene and felt an urge to regret his decision.
