Mo Die was immersed in the nightmare that Bing Tong created for her with illusion and couldn't extricate herself. Jiang Xue Ning held her wrist and placed the bright red heart-eating insect on her snow-white wrist.

Xiao Wuji watched indifferently from the side, and even gave her some advice, "It's too troublesome. Since you have already controlled her, why not just cut her throat with a knife and kill her with it."

Jiang Xuening raised her eyes and gave him a cold look. "Southern Xinjiang Gu magic is inherently strange, and she is a top Gu magician. Who knows if there is any special way to save her life? I don't want to leave any trouble behind."

She didn't want to leave any trouble behind, so using Gu to treat Gu was the best option.

After the heart-eating insect drilled into her arm, it crawled along the meridians for a while before it immediately encountered an obstacle.

The Gu in Modie's body sensed something was wrong and began to attack the guards of its "territory."

In Mo Die's arm, two poisonous insects were fighting fiercely, surging in her arm, and her skin and flesh were bulging.

It was a magical fight, she lowered her head and watched quietly. Soon the two bulging bags became one, and it was obvious that one of them was swallowed.

Immersed in the dream, Mo Die's mouth began to bleed and his brows furrowed in pain.

She curled the corners of her mouth, it seemed that the heart-eating insect had won.

She stepped aside, and Bingtong stood beside her. "I wonder if this Heart-Eating Gu is as magical as the rumors say."

This is the third most evil poison among the ten major poisons. Once you are infected, your flesh and blood will become nutrients for this poison.

The third manager of Hua's Trading Company had to pay a huge price through some connections to get this Gu.

She said calmly, "Let's wait and see."

The room fell into an eerie silence. After an unknown amount of time, the incense in the incense burner burned out.

Mo Die suddenly covered his chest, slowly knelt on the ground, and gradually lost his breath.

Her body shrank bit by bit, and the heart-eating worms were devouring her internal organs, eating her up completely.

Xiao Wuji's scalp tingled as he watched, "Xiao Linfeng is a lunatic, and you are also a lunatic."

She didn't say anything, just watched quietly. The sky gradually darkened, and they watched a person being devoured with their own eyes.

There was only a piece of skin left on the ground, and out of the skin jumped a bright red poisonous insect as big as a bowl. It was the heart-eating poison that was only the size of a grain of rice at the beginning.

Bingtong got goosebumps all over her body and couldn't help but say, "It makes me feel creepy and disgusting."

Jiang Xuening stepped forward and took out a sack, opening it towards the Heart-Eating Gu. The Heart-Eating Gu smelled a familiar smell and jumped into the sack. She quickly tied the sack tightly, not wanting to take another look.

As for the human skin on the ground, she picked it up with her sword and carefully put it into the box.

Xiao Wuji couldn't help but ask, "Why do you collect this disgusting stuff?"

She took a deep breath and said, "It's none of your business. You should think about how to explain it to Xiao Linfeng when you get back."

Mo Die died just like that, and Xiao Linfeng was not a magnanimous person.

"Explanation? Ha, he doesn't deserve it." Xiao Wuji said nonchalantly, "He is not the one who really makes the decision in the Xiao family."

Jiang Xue Ning was stunned for a moment and sneered, "Your Xiao family is full of filth and secrets."

Xiao Wuji stood up, his body no longer so weak and numb. He pushed open the door and turned his back to her. "Since you have left Beijing, you shouldn't come back."

After saying that, he left with the Jinyiwei. Since the so-called water bandits were not found, Jiang Xue Ning was naturally cleared of all charges.

Du Yishui had been hidden by her somewhere else a long time ago. After all, the palace was in a turbulent time, and with so many spies watching overtly and covertly, Du Yishui's identity was a hidden danger.

Jiang Xue Ning hurriedly said, "Quickly bring me a basin of water."

Qing He brought two basins of water with her maid, and Jiang Xue Ning began to wash herself seriously. Bing Tong felt uncomfortable all over, so she went to take a bath and change clothes.

It was completely dark, and Jiang Xue Ning and Bing Tong took a carriage to the designated alley where all kinds of people gathered.

Wu Jin, dressed in black, placed the sack containing the poisonous insects and the box containing the leather under the designated century-old locust tree.

Jiang Xue Ning lifted the car curtain and stared at it intently. Wu Jin had just stepped back for a while when a man dressed in black and wearing a veiled hat walked over, picked up the sack and box, and left, disappearing around the corner.

Wu Jin asked, "Do you want to follow?"

She nodded, "No, I can't catch up with you."

Such people come and go without a trace. To dare to wade into such muddy water, they must have their own strengths.

Hua Yan told her that this person was obsessed with refining Gu. The main reason he agreed to go out this time, in addition to taking the opportunity to extort a lot of good things from the business, was that he wanted to devour Mo Die's natal Gu to feed his own Gu.

"Go back."

They didn't chase, but many of the people who followed them did track them down, but of course they got nothing in the end.

"The art of refining Gu is truly evil." Bing Tong still couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart, "Fortunately, the top-level Gu master rarely interferes in worldly affairs."

Jiang Xue Ning looked at her and said, "If you were exposed, would you be afraid?"

Xiao Wuji came in broad daylight as the commander of the Jinyiwei. It was difficult for her to kill him directly, otherwise she would be killing an official appointed by the imperial court, which would be a complete provocation.

"If I were afraid, I wouldn't have left Bingyuan, let alone come to Beijing with you." A cold look flashed in Bingtong's eyes, "It's not me who did anything wrong, why should I be afraid."

She was even looking forward to seeing what expression Helian Mu would have when they met again.

Xiao Family, The night wind lifted Xiao Linfeng's hair. He looked at the bright moon in the sky and asked, "Where is Mo Die?"

Xiao Wuji pulled the corner of his mouth and chuckled, "She was eaten clean by a colorful poisonous insect. Only a piece of skin was left. I found it disgusting, so I didn't bring it back. If you want, you can pick it up yourself."

"With her level of Gu magic, it's impossible for her to be swallowed so easily." Xiao Linfeng turned around and looked at him coldly, "What's the variable?"

Xiao Wuji said indifferently, "I don't know, guess for yourself."

People like him already had some guesses in their minds.

As expected, Xiao Linfeng spoke confidently, "She has a powerful illusionist by her side. Such illusionists are rare. One appeared in Shangjing many years ago."

He smiled gently, as if he was lost in interesting memories.

Xiao Wu Ji rolled his eyes. His expression showed that he was going to scheme against someone again.

Xiao Linfeng, "Liu Zhu, go tell Helian Mu that his princess is back and is now in the Qingzhou Palace."

"Yes."

The woman in yellow at the side responded and went to do her job.

Xiao Linfeng said with a half-smile, "The rumored Gu Mingyue has come to Beijing. You are the ungrateful wolf she once raised. Now that you know your master is coming back, are you excited or scared?"

"You like to meddle in other people's business so much." Xiao Wuji met his eyes fearlessly, "Why don't you worry about it? What will you do if that person comes back?"

"From being demoted from the feared King of Wei to a commoner, do I have to continue to lie at his feet like a dog like before?"

“How pitiful.”
