My reborn husband and son are thinking about how to kill me every day.

Chapter 472 Mutation

Fan Hongmiao and several other civil officials led the way, heading towards Chongshi Lane.

The once prosperous Qiongdu is now unrecognizable.

Blood was everywhere, and mangled carcasses were left behind by monsters...

Looking at those empty shells, Fan Hongmiao's legs trembled.

Although it wasn't the first time he had witnessed such a horrific situation, each time, he felt weak all over and almost couldn't stand up.

He forced himself to move forward, his body trembling.

He took a few steps, then looked back uneasily and asked Lu Yinheng, "Is it... just a few of you coming?"

Lu Yinheng didn't answer him, but Liang Zhonglin said, "Is there a problem with just the few of us?"

“It’s not that there’s a problem,” Fan Hongmiao said, “I’m just a little worried…”

He didn't say what he was worried about, but everyone present understood what he meant.

Liang Zhonglin said unhappily, "Our lord will be coming soon. When our lord comes, it will be a huge favor to you."

Does he even know who those adults are?

Each of them is worth thousands of soldiers.

If adults are willing to personally rescue their family members, those family members have a chance to survive. Even if they are injured, adults might still be able to save them.

No one but adults can do this.

He is still not satisfied?

They actually complained that not enough people went?

Fan Hongmiao belatedly realized that his words were inappropriate, and he quickly explained, "I didn't mean anything by it. I was just worried that you might not be able to find your way since you haven't caught up for so long."

"Don't worry, we adults won't get lost." Liang Zhonglin felt that Ji Yunshuang must have magical powers, and could know where Fan Hongmiao's family lived just by calculating with her fingers.

The reason they were asked to lead the way was simply to avoid revealing their divine identities.

Just as he was thinking this, everyone heard a commotion.

Everyone turned around and saw that Ji Yunshuang had caught up.

Her sword sliced down a monster that was about to ambush them. The monster had appeared out of nowhere without making a sound; they hadn't noticed it at all.

Looking at the corpse of the multi-headed monster, Fan Hongmiao felt a wave of fear.

Fortunately, Lord Ji caught up with him, otherwise he might not have gotten this one.

Although these monsters do not eat their flesh because they took the special pills given to them by Ji Yunshuang.

But these monsters are much larger than those on Elm Mountain.

If you are bitten a few times by chance, even if you don't bleed to death, you will definitely suffer excruciating pain.

Upon seeing Ji Yunshuang, he reacted as if he were seeing his own father. "My lord, you've arrived! You're amazing!"

Liang Zhonglin and the others ignored Fan Hongmiao and stepped forward to apologize, saying, "It was our carelessness that we failed to discover the monster hiding in the shadows."

"Everyone, stay alert and be careful. Even though you're wearing protective suits, they're not 100% safe. These insects are constantly mutating, and they're changing very quickly and without any discernible pattern."

As Ji Yunshuang was speaking, a dirty man suddenly ran towards them.

He immediately knelt down in front of Ji Yunshuang: "Help! Please, come with me to save my wife!"

Ji Yunshuang asked, "What's wrong with your wife?"

The man said, "My wife is about to give birth, but the city is in chaos, and she has gone through a miscarriage. We can't find a doctor. Please, madam, save my wife!"

Lu Yinheng stood warily beside Ji Yunshuang, "How do you know she can save your wife? She's not a doctor."

"She...she is a woman. I was desperate and had no other choice but to ask you for help."

The man's voice was trembling with tears as he wiped his eyes. "Please, save my wife."

The man looked utterly pathetic.

Even the civil officials, including Fan Hongmiao, who were worried about their families and didn't want Ji Yunshuang to waste time on the road, and hoped that she would hurry up and go with them to rescue people, were moved with compassion.

However, Ji Yunshuang and Lu Yinheng did not move an inch, nor did they show any intention of following the man.

Seeing that they didn't believe him at all, the man suddenly glared and shouted angrily, "You cold-blooded woman, you deserve to die!"

As he cursed, his eyes widened, and everyone seemed to hear a "rip" sound as the skin on his head suddenly split open, and a two-headed monster burst out of his body.

The two heads attacked Ji Yunshuang and Lu Yinheng respectively.

Fan Hongmiao and the others were stunned by this sudden turn of events, and let out a tremendous cry of surprise.

Ji Yunshuang and Lu Yinheng, however, showed no surprise whatsoever.

As the monster suddenly attacked them, the two simultaneously raised their weapons and slashed at the monster.

With a single move, the two simultaneously severed the monster's head.

Looking at the bloody monster cut into several pieces, and the once vibrant person now reduced to a shriveled husk.

A sense of sorrow rose in everyone's hearts.

These were all living, breathing people before!

But now, his body has been taken over by a monster!

After the initial sorrow, everyone felt an even greater sense of dread.

So, are those monsters just hiding inside people's bodies?

"My lord, how did you discover that he was a monster?" Fan Hongmiao trembled, still reeling from the shock.
