In the world of "Covering the Sky," one can refine Gu (a type of poison) to become an immo

Chapter 66 The Born Slave Gu (2k)

Sha Xiao carefully observed every tremor of Butler Li, her eyes seeing another world.

Pale yellow chains were densely wrapped around that milky white brain, with every nerve bound by those intricate chains.

What's most surprising is that no matter where his fingers slid, they encountered no resistance.

On the contrary, the chains would actively avoid and even guide Sha Xiao to examine every corner.

"Wow, that's interesting!"

Sha Xiao stared intently at the pale yellow chains, her heart filled with curiosity and vigilance.

These are traces of Gu, the traces of a naturally occurring Gu worm!

Moreover, these Gu worms originated from the world of Shrouding the Heavens, and they differ greatly from those in the Gu Realm in many ways, both in the interweaving of Dao traces and the number of divine runes.

Although this is the result he wanted to see when he was refining Qingmao Mountain, isn't this a bit too fast?

Moreover, this is not one of those easily found, nature-related Gu worms.

This is a natural "slave curse"!

Normally, the Slave Gu was a minor branch that separated from the Zhi Dao after its development.

Is it possible to use one's own thoughts and mind to cultivate a slave-producing Gu in advance?

It can only be said that this person is no longer human, but a living Gu worm.

"Alas--

"Hey, Old Sha? What are you doing?"

Suddenly, Pang Bo's voice rang out.

Sha Xiao turned around and saw that Ye Fan and the others had arrived behind her without her noticing.

"So fast?"

Sha Xiao looked at Ye Fan and the others behind her and frowned slightly in surprise.

Given Ye Fan's personality, it should have taken him some time to persuade Grandpa Jiang, so how could it have happened so quickly?

Ye Fan also frowned, looking at Sha Xiao's actions with some discomfort.

Although I've seen Sha Xiao use living creatures to refine Gu, those were all wild animals. This is the first time he's directly attacked a living person like this.

"Sha Xiao, watch your image!"

Ye Fan reached out and covered Jiang Tingting's eyes, saying somewhat uncomfortably.

Sha Xiao sighed, then her eyes darted around and she found a solution.

He glanced at Grandpa Tingting, whose eyes were filled with satisfaction, and shifted the focus, saying, "Grandpa Jiang, you decide whether Tingting can see it or not."

Grandpa Jiang nodded without hesitation, his tone firm: "When they committed atrocities against our family, they didn't hide it from Tingting!"

"Young Master Ye, I know you mean well. But we are a poor family. We seek justice for our grievances and revenge for our grudges. Why can't we watch?"

"We only feel good when our enemies and bad people are tortured!"

Ye Fan and Pang Bo both fell silent upon hearing this.

They realized once again that their way of thinking was different from that of people like Beidou, who grew up in the spiritual realm.

"Alright, come and take a look. I didn't torture anyone for no reason or use them to make Gu poison. I wouldn't bother making Gu poison even if you gave it to me, but this person is an exception."

As Sha Xiao spoke, she pinched Butler Li's head with her five fingers and pulled it outward forcefully.

To the astonishment of several people, several long, intertwined yellow chains were pulled out of Butler Li's mind by Sha Xiao.

With a thud, Butler Li lost his mind and collapsed to the ground, convulsing, clearly not going to live.

Sha Xiao pulled out all the chains, gathered them in his hand and kneaded them into a ball, explaining, "This is a slave gu, and a slave gu nurtured by heaven and earth. This person has been dead for a long time."

"His body harbors a first-stage slave Gu, allowing anyone stronger than him to command him at will."

"Once he dies, the Gu worm will be fully formed. I'm just pulling it out ahead of time."

Sha Xiao tossed the slave Gu to Zhou Yi, who was intrigued, and looked at Grandpa Jiang calmly, saying, "Who else has a grudge against you? Even if it's someone from the nearby cave, just tell me."

"Since we want to take Tingting as our disciple, we naturally need to help her resolve her worldly troubles."

Grandpa Jiang felt a surge of relief as he watched his enemy fall to the ground, but a remark from Sha Xiao reminded him of something else.

He glanced at the Li family members who were avoiding them and dared not come closer, and quickly advised, "The person who harmed Tingting's parents is most likely a member of the Li family. He also has a position in the nearby grotto-heaven."

"Is this little immortal staying at the Li family's place? If so, we'd better run away while their master is still in the Misty Cloud Cave Heaven."

"I am old and no longer aspire to revenge. I only hope that the little immortal can take good care of Tingting and resolve her life-or-death crisis."

Ye Fan felt a pang of unease looking at Grandpa Jiang, who was so anxious and worried about his granddaughter and them.

Are all good people in this world like this?

Sha Xiao glanced at the subtly tense Li family members inside the mansion, patted Grandpa Jiang on the shoulder, and said calmly, "I never fight unprepared battles. Since I want to take Tingting in, I naturally know about your past."

Having said that, he flicked his right hand, and a small snail appeared in his grasp: "Sect Leader Li, did you hear me?"

"Yes, Your Highness, I already know. My family has suffered a misfortune, and I will clean house immediately."

On the other end of the communication device, Li Xianyun's respectful voice came through.

A moment later, a beam of celestial light pierced the sky and flew rapidly toward this place.

"Thump, thump, thump—"

Before the celestial light had even dissipated, several figures were thrown down from the sky.

"Oh--!"

The people inside the Li family mansion were initially taken aback.

Soon, someone recognized the person who had fallen with broken bones and a bloodied face.

"That's... Seventh Young Master?"

"Quick, quick, save them! Save them!"

Those servants who dared not come out to rescue Steward Li immediately forgot their fear of Sha Xiao and his group.

They immediately divided the tasks clearly, prepared hot water, bandages and medicine, and scrambled out to take care of the seventh young master of the Li family, who was groaning from the fall.

"Get out of here!"

Li Xianyun and Weiwei landed on the ground in a celestial light and angrily rebuked the servants who were preparing to use spiritual medicine to treat the seventh young master of the Li family and his fellow disciples.

Those servants immediately stopped awkwardly in their tracks.

"My lord, my uncle, no matter what mistake I made, we are all family. Please, have mercy on me."

The weakened seventh young master of the Li family opened his bloodshot, hazy eyes and shouted while spitting out blood.

Grandpa Jiang was stunned to see the usually arrogant seventh young master of the Li family, the biggest culprit who had killed his sons, lying on the ground like a dead dog, howling and begging for mercy.

Seeing that Li Xianyun and Weiwei remained unmoved, and instead looked at Sha Xiao, Grandpa Jiang, and Jiang Tingting, the seventh young master of the Li family instantly understood what was going on.

He immediately crawled on his hands and knees, covered in blood, to Grandpa Jiang and Jiang Tingting, kowtowing repeatedly and wailing in a heart-wrenching voice, "Back then, a great man took a fancy to Brother Jiang's treasure, and I tried to persuade him for a long time, but he still refused to hand it over."

"Uncle Jiang, if I hadn't been so reckless, I would have been the one to die. I was forced into this situation!"

"I'm so sorry, Brother Jiang. I'm willing to make amends—medicines, my entire fortune, even just kowtowing and admitting my guilt—anything is fine with me!"

Listening to Young Master Li's heart-wrenching cries, Jiang Tingting's little mind went blank for a moment.

She instinctively grabbed her grandfather's trouser leg and looked up, hoping to find the answer.
