Reborn Fairy Wife Takes Me on a Gaggle-Fire rampage

Chapter 170 It turns out to be a clam spirit

Su Yun intently turned the pages of the yellowed ancient book in his hands, his fingers gently caressing the paper, as if trying to uncover the secrets hidden within the ancient text. Time quietly passed until a gentle breeze inadvertently swept by, turning the pages and stopping at the chapter on the art of refining corpses with Gu worms.

However, to Su Yun's disappointment, although the text detailed various Gu worms and methods of corpse refining, there was no record of the three-headed, six-armed Gu worm. Faced with this problem, Su Yun frowned, pondering how to solve this mystery.

After some thought, Su Yun decided to go to the Dragon Palace immediately to seek help. She hurried along, swiftly traversing the mountains and forests, and soon arrived at the gates of the Dragon Palace.

Upon seeing the Dragon Girl, Su Yun couldn't wait to ask, "Dragon Girl, have you ever seen a Gu worm with three heads and six arms? Or a similar monster?"

The Dragon Girl shook her head slightly, a look of surprise on her face, and said, "This is indeed a strange thing. I have never encountered such a Gu worm or monster before. Why do you suddenly ask about this? Could it be that you have already seen it?"

Su Yun nodded and replied urgently, "That's right, the Gu worm that I found in the hands of a girl in the Y tribe looks exactly like this!"

The Dragon Girl thoughtfully rested her chin on her hand, and after a moment said, "Perhaps this is not just a single Gu worm, but a mixture of multiple Gu worms. This situation is not uncommon."

Su Yun added, "Not only that, she even allowed these Gu worms to run rampant in the mountains and forests, indiscriminately killing innocent creatures, and taking the opportunity to absorb the essence of the sun and moon! According to the people in the village, they all call this woman Yunniang."

Hearing this, the Dragon Girl's expression grew even more solemn: "Able to absorb the essence of the sun and moon? This is probably not something an ordinary Gu worm can do. It must be a Gu worm refined by a demon! Later, I will go with you to investigate."

Su Yun quickly replied, "Okay! There's something even more astonishing: she actually practices manipulating corpses! I witnessed this with my own eyes!"

Upon hearing this, the Dragon Girl gasped, "This is truly unbelievable! In my opinion, this Yunniang is very likely a demon herself. For a mortal to completely control and manipulate a demon's behavior is almost impossible. There must be a huge conspiracy behind this."

As night fell, Su Yun and the Dragon Girl quietly infiltrated the territory of the Y Clan. Under the moonlight, they saw Yun Niang standing in an open space, surrounded by corpses exuding an eerie aura. She waved her hands and chanted incantations, while the three-headed, six-armed Gu worms swarmed and hovered around her.

Suddenly, Yunniang sensed someone approaching and whirled around, a ferocious expression on her face. It turned out she had known all along that Su Yun and the Dragon Girl would come to investigate. Yunniang sneered, "You think you can stop me? I am a clam spirit who has cultivated for a hundred years; this is all part of my plan." As she spoke, she opened her palm, and a dazzling pearl appeared, its light enveloping the Gu worms and corpses, instantly amplifying her power.

The Dragon Girl struck first, unleashing a jet of water towards Yun Niang with a flick of her sleeve. Su Yun, meanwhile, chanted incantations, attempting to disperse the Gu worms. However, Yun Niang used the power of her pearl to deflect the Dragon Girl's attack and even commanded the Gu worms to attack Su Yun. Just then, Su Yun discovered that the Gu worms feared the realgar powder he carried, so he scattered it, causing the Gu worms to retreat. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Dragon Girl gathered all her spiritual power and unleashed a powerful strike, shattering Yun Niang's pearl shield. Yun Niang was injured and fled. Su Yun and the Dragon Girl decided to continue their pursuit.

Yunniang was startled, realizing she had been completely exposed. If she rashly returned to the village now, she would likely be walking into a trap. Therefore, she made a quick decision to temporarily leave that familiar place.

To heal her injuries as quickly as possible and avoid being tracked by the enemy, Yunniang carefully concealed herself and quietly slipped into a foul-smelling river deep in the mountains. This river, usually deserted and filthy, was the perfect hiding place for her.

Meanwhile, the Dragon Maiden in the Dragon Palace, upon learning of Yun Niang's whereabouts, immediately summoned her numerous subordinates. With a wave of her jade-like hand and incantations, she instantly conjured a large number of shrimp soldiers and crab generals from the Dragon Palace, even summoning the slippery mudfish. These aquatic creatures were well-trained and quickly assembled, obeying the Dragon Maiden's commands.

"Search carefully along the river's course. Once you find any trace of Yunniang, report back to me immediately!" At the Dragon Maiden's command, all the aquatic creatures responded in unison, then leaped into the river, launching a tense and exciting search. They went upstream and downstream, leaving no corner unchecked that might conceal Yunniang.

The river flows swiftly, rippling across its surface, but beneath this seemingly calm surface, a thrilling chase and hide-and-seek are unfolding...

"Let's go for a walk around the neighborhood, Su Su," the Dragon Girl said softly, her beautiful face slightly turned towards Su Yun. A hint of curiosity and anticipation flickered in her eyes, which were as clear as autumn water.

“Okay!” Su Yun replied with a smile.

Having said that, the two of them stepped onto the snow-white clouds. A gentle breeze rustled their clothes. However, they hadn't flown far when they keenly sensed something amiss in their surroundings.

Not far ahead, a sinister and terrifying scene appeared—a mass grave. A chilling atmosphere permeated the area, sending shivers down one's spine. Strangely, however, the entire mass grave was empty, with only solitary graves scattered about.

The two exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with surprise and confusion. As if by telepathy, they seemed to have simultaneously thought of something terrifying. Could it be... that the mysterious Yunniang planned to rise from the dead and use the opportunity to destroy their village? Once this thought surfaced, it grew wildly in their minds like weeds, sending a chill down their spines.

The shrimp soldiers and crab generals had been searching everywhere for a long time, but they still couldn't find any trace of Yunniang. This really worried the Dragon Girl, who couldn't help but frown and think to herself what to do.

Suddenly, an idea flashed through the Dragon Girl's mind. A sly smile appeared on her lips: "Hehe, since that's the case, let's go back to the Nine Heavens and get a pet! Maybe it can help us find Yunniang." After saying that, the Dragon Girl clapped her hands lightly, seemingly quite satisfied with her idea.

Hearing this, Su Yun looked at the Dragon Girl with a puzzled expression and asked, "Hmm? What pet? Why would you think of going back to get your pet to help find Yun Niang?" He really couldn't figure out what the Dragon Girl was up to.
