Although Liao Zhong found Jiang Mo's decisiveness a bit strange, he didn't ask any further questions.

After leaving the training area, the two walked along the corridor of the bunker in another direction.

“I have some impression of this place. I think I came here when I first arrived.”

Jiang Mo turned to look around the corridor and spoke.

"Yes, you also needed to have your health checked when you first arrived, but your condition is much better than others."

Liao Zhong nodded upon hearing this, inwardly surprised by Jiang Mo's memory.

In fact, the styles of the bunker corridors are all very similar, and it is difficult to distinguish them if you don't pay attention.

"Me? I'm different from the others, but this isn't about me. Tell me about the situation."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Mo inquired about the situation.

"It's a little girl, about your age. Those guys from the Medicine Immortal Society must have succeeded."

Liao Zhong glanced at Jiang Mo, but didn't hide anything.

Jiang Mo didn't seem to be that hostile towards the Medicine Immortal Society.

This is Liao Zhong's opinion.

It's just that they don't really care about the life or death of those people from the Medicine Immortal Society.

"The Holy Child with the Gu Body?"

Jiang Mo already knew, but still asked a question in return.

“Yes, the Gu-body Saint Child, her body is symbiotic with Gu worms. You know better than I what this will bring.”

Liao Zhong nodded and said seriously, wanting to take out a cigarette to light it, but then put it away again, thinking of the children around him.

Jiang Mo observed Liao Zhong's actions and nodded slightly.

"I can imagine that those who were with me, even though I intervened, still suffered significant physical damage."

"Yes, problems with internal organs and residual Gu poison in the body."

As Liao Zhong spoke, he looked at Jiang Mo.

Judging from the treatment of those children, if the poison in their bodies had not been cleared, or if the poisonous Gu had not been removed, these children would have died long ago.

However, the current treatment is very troublesome. Even if the poison is cleared, the damaged internal organs will prevent these children from living for long.

"Now we can try a thorough cleaning, after all, I haven't been idle lately, it's just that my body has been damaged..."

Jiang Mo suddenly paused as he spoke because he saw an acquaintance.

Qu Tong.

"Huh? We agreed we wouldn't see each other again, but I didn't expect to see you here."

Qu Tong was clearly taken aback, then smiled and said.

"I was just about to mention you. Speaking of which, the other children's bodies are damaged. I can remove the Gu poison, but their damaged internal organs need your help. I'm sure you can do that, right?"

"How could that be? It's not an illness. I can help with treatment, but I don't know exactly how far I can go."

Qu Tong smiled upon hearing this.

Jiang Mo's gaze swept across Qu Tong's face before he walked toward the testing room on the side.

Liao Zhong greeted Qu Tong and then followed her inside.

Qu Tong stood outside and watched Jiang Mo and the other person enter the room before her smile faded.

What did you mean by that last sentence?

During the time Qu Tong spent with Jiang Mo, she found it difficult to treat him like a child.

Even in certain situations they spend time together, she subconsciously overlooks the fact that Jiang Mo is a child.

She couldn't understand this child.

Qu Tong didn't think Jiang Mo had said that casually.

Did he sense something?

After a brief moment of thought, Qu Tong followed him into the testing room.

Inside the testing room.

The little girl was lying on a machine.

Several people in protective suits stood in front of the monitor next to the instrument.

"You can't come in without protective gear... Hmm, is that you?"

Noticing someone enter, a person in protective clothing in front of the monitor turned around and spoke instinctively.

But then he saw Jiang Mo and his tone was somewhat puzzled.

"long time no see!"

Jiang Mo greeted him.

The same person examined him last time.

After greeting her, Jiang Mo walked over to Chen Duo, who was lying on the machine.

At this moment, Chen Duo, who did not yet have a name, lay stiffly with her eyes unblinking, staring straight at the top of the testing room.

Jiang Mo raised his hand and waved it over Chen Duo's eyes, but there was no reaction.

"Don't try it, she only reacts to very few things."

Seeing Jiang Mo's actions, the people in protective suits came closer.

"Ok!"

Jiang Mo nodded upon hearing this, his tone filled with emotion.

The members of the Medicine Immortal Society deserved to die, but now that it has been destroyed, their fate is unlikely to be any better.

He also felt that Chen Duo's current situation was somewhat troublesome.

"How's it going?"

Liao Zhong walked over and asked, his eyes also glancing at Chen Duo, who hadn't responded.

"It's alright, of course, only relative to herself. Her Qi can tame the Gu in her body, but these Gu are constantly consuming her Qi. If one day her Qi can no longer satisfy the Gu in her body, or if she can no longer suppress them..."

The best outcome would be for her own body to be corrupted by the Gu poison, causing her Qi to disappear before the poison spreads, and the Gu that coexisted with her Qi to die as well.

"Is this the best possible outcome?"

Liao Zhong's face darkened upon hearing this.

"Yes, the worst-case scenario is that it gets out of control. If the Gu within the body cannot be suppressed and is allowed to spread unchecked, and the Qi drives these Gu to multiply, then the result will be..."

The speaker's tone became very serious.

In crowded places, as many people as there are, will die.

This is the result.

Upon hearing this, Liao Zhong's expression darkened further, and his gaze fell upon Jiang Mo.

"What do you think?"

"That won't happen!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Mo turned his head and glanced at the three people behind him, including Qu Tong.

“You’re talking about a situation where Qi can’t suppress the Gu, but with me here, I’ll consume as many Gu as there are.”

Jiang Mo's words sent a jolt through Liao Zhong and the other two.

Jiang Mo stopped looking at the three of them, raised his hand and placed it on the center of Chen Duo's chest. Then his fingers slid down from there, all the way to Chen Duo's neck, and then to Chen Duo's lips.

Chen Duo, who had been unresponsive, finally reacted.

Just then, an alarm suddenly sounded in the quiet testing room.

Liao Zhong and the others retreated several times in shock, staring at Chen Duo and Jiang Mo in horror.

Wisps of gray aura flew out of Chen Duo's mouth and circled around Jiang Mo's fingers.

As he turned around, Jiang Mo's fingers, which were surrounded by others, turned black.

The blackness spread along his hand.

Those with good eyesight can see that the black covering Jiang Mo's hands looks like liquid, but also like tiny insects crawling on his hands.

The alarm in the testing room was still ringing, and hurried footsteps could be heard outside.

A person wearing protective clothing opened the door and looked into the testing room.

Liao Zhong noticed this and waved for people to leave.

Everyone stared at Jiang Mo and Chen Duo in front of them.

Chen Duo finally showed an expression, but no one else could tell what it meant.

Meanwhile, blackness was spreading across Jiang Mo's hands and arms.

Liao Zhong looked at Jiang Mo with some worry. Would this cause a problem?

The Gu on this little girl is very poisonous, and when it combines with Qi, it will give rise to various poisonous Gu, making it impossible to treat.
