Shocking! The master of metaphysics is actually the ancestor of ghosts and monsters!

Two?!

It split into... two!

Nangong Qian ran after him without stopping, calling out, "Boss, Boss!"

Her tone was extremely urgent: "The human gu can split!"

......

She hadn't run far when the blood attracted another group of Gu worms to chase after her.

Sharp, withered, grayish-white claws reached out towards her from afar.

Nangong Qian surveyed her surroundings, searching for an opening to escape. She dodged the nearest claw, covered the scratched area, and abruptly turned in a different direction.

There were too many Gu worms ahead, forcing her to turn back the way she came.

The houses, of varying heights, were all covered with human Gu, though initially there weren't this many.

It is those who died, and the ability to reproduce and regenerate like cells.

She didn't have time to think. She gasped for breath, her chest aching, and her mouth was dry from the intense breathing.

The big shot did not respond to her.

Where is she going to find the big shot...?

In an instant, she looked down and saw a group of monster-like shadows reflected on the ground.

She dared not turn around, much less look at the monsters chasing after her.

The monster was consciously attacking her, and often ignored Black Eyes's subordinates, almost completely disregarding them.

Nangong Qian was very surprised when she discovered this. What was controlling the monster?

Aren't they unconscious? How could they possibly distinguish between people?

After thinking for a long time, she discovered another phenomenon: the monsters did not attack Black Eye's subordinates, but if those people lost too much blood, they would be attacked.

This is incredible.

This indicates that the monster is uncontrollable, interested in humans, and even more interested in human blood.

They will tear humans apart until they have sucked all their blood dry.

Suddenly, a side attack caught Nangong Qian off guard. The human-gu worms rushed in from the side and blocked her way, while a group of others followed behind...

She held her breath in nervousness.

Think! Stay calm!

The human-like Gu worms were also surrounding her. One lunged, but missed. Nangong Qian felt herself flying in the air.

Someone grabbed her by the collar, dragged her onto the roof, and swept the Gu worm that was originally on the roof down with a single slash.

The human-shaped Gu, broken in two, began to wriggle below again, and after a moment, it split into two.

Seeing this scene again, Nangong Qian couldn't help but feel her chest heaving.

The scene was disgusting; I couldn't stand it no matter how many times I saw it.

After calming down for a moment, she secretly glanced at the ghost general holding a large sword beside her.

She had a strange feeling in her heart—fear, anxiety, gratitude? A mix of emotions, and she couldn't quite put her finger on what she was feeling.

"Th...thank you!"

Out of politeness befitting a young lady of high birth, Nangong Qian still carefully apologized.

After a long while, I still didn't receive any reply.

Nangong Qian didn't think the ghost would respond to her.

A long time has passed.

“They can’t kill them…” The ghost general’s rough and powerful voice slowly rang out beside Nangong Qian.

Nangong Qian looked at him in surprise.

She thought he wouldn't talk to her.

Just as she looked over, the ghost general also looked over. He half-squatted down, making his body level with Nangong Qian's.

She then said something that angered Nangong Qian: "You are not her, I have nothing to do with you."

Nangong Qian was speechless: "......."

She thought to herself: "What a narcissist! He's tall and strong, and looks like a tough, rugged man. I don't mind him, but he's looking down on me."

She's very beautiful, okay?

Then, she rolled her eyes, speechless.

“You are not dignified. Wanye is a dignified and gentle woman.”

The ghost general's words hit Nangong Qian's sore spot again.

"I'm not dignified?! Are you crazy? If you want to be dignified, go find someone dignified. Why are you looking for me? Besides, I don't even know you."

Nangong Qian was so angry that her chest ached, and her voice was hoarse, almost shouting out the words.

"besides!"

She emphasized, "If you think I'm bad, why are you even talking to me? If you hadn't saved me, I wouldn't bother talking to a jerk like you!"

A ghost, and it dares to look down on him?

"You are rude."

Unexpectedly, the ghost general did not refute her, but said something else completely nonsensical.

The subconscious implication was that Nangong Qian's current behavior was rude.

"Are you crazy?! What right do you have to judge me?!" Nangong Qian completely lost her temper. "There are plenty of men chasing after me, do I need you to point fingers at me? You're insane!"

"They're chasing you because you're rude? Chasing you? Why are they chasing you?"

The ghost asked this question with a puzzled look. He couldn't understand why men in this world would chase after and beat up a woman just because she was rude.

Men in that world are too useless.

"You! You... get out!"

Nangong Qian naturally knew that he hadn't understood what she meant.

"I will not leave."

Nangong Qian rolled her eyes again. It was bad luck for her to have messed with a lunatic, especially a crazy one.

Ghost General: "Is there something wrong with your eyes?"

Nangong Qian blurted out: "Idiot!"

The ghost general asked, "What do you mean by that?"

Nangong Qian: "......"

You can't argue with a fool, especially one from ancient times.

So she changed the subject, trying to steer the conversation towards the human-shaped gu poisons, "You just said they can't be killed? Why?"

She found this very strange; how could a dignified ghost general fail to kill a human Gu?

Wasn't he very impressive just now?

"Aren't you a Ghost General? Doesn't the boss mean you're very powerful?"

Nangong Qian pursed her lips. At this moment, no human Gu were approaching her. It seemed that the Ghost General had set something up so that the human Gu were no longer paying attention to her.

So at this moment, her tense body relaxed slightly.

"I can command ghosts, but not corpses."

The ghost general stood ramrod straight, and from behind, Nangong Qian could indeed see the imposing aura of a great general.

"Corpses? They're corpses, so they're not your concern?"

Nangong Qian was very perceptive and immediately understood what he meant.

Ghost General: "Hmm."

"But how can the corpse move? And... it was a targeted attacker. Kurohime can control corpses, but he's long gone. How can he control a corpse now?"

Nangong Qian muttered to herself, then suddenly realized, "Insects!! Those insects!"

......

Jing Li was wiping the blood off her hands as she swung her arms, then rushed toward the direction Hei Tong had fled. She curled her lips into a smile and said, "Let's see how far you can run. You'd better hide well."

Hei Tong disregarded everything and pushed his subordinate to shield him from the knife.

That woman was terrifying. She was clearly holding a stick, but the stick looked incredibly sharp and could easily slice off a person's arm.

Guns were powerless against her.

There was an invisible force constantly binding them in the air, like countless unseen thin ropes winding around them.
