CHAPTER 310: CHAPTER 310

Since Chen Muxue awoke, she had maintained a calm demeanor, but the moment Master Yin used Xiaohua as a threat against her, a ripple finally appeared.

The young Xiaohua looked a bit disheveled at this moment, with a large handprint swelling high on her face and her hair in a complete mess.

Even more unkempt than back at the Qian Ding Sect...

Recalling the day the Qian Ding Sect was attacked by Xiao Feng, Chen Muxue’s eyes grew cold once more.

"I advise you not to harbor any sinister thoughts." Chen Muxue spoke in a flat tone at this time, free of any fluctuations, a stark contrast to her previous frantic demeanor.

Never mind Xiaohua, even Master Yin, who had only met her recently, perceived something was amiss; could someone change so significantly, so obviously, in such a short time?

Moreover, Master Yin was quite certain he could defeat the previous Chen Muxue with confidence, but the woman before him now was mysterious and unfathomable, holding an inexplicable aura of oppression.

Xiaohua had just recovered from the slap Master Yin gave her, her head still woozy, yet she faintly saw a familiar figure through the golden stars in her vision, and her buzzing ears heard a familiar voice; her tears that she held back for so long finally flowed uncontrollably.

"Sect Leader... Xiaohua was disobedient, Xiaohua wasn’t a good child, I’m sorry..." Xiaohua sobbed, almost gasping for breath.

Hearing Xiaohua speak in such a manner, seemingly with a slight whining tone, Chen Muxue couldn’t help but furrow her brows.

Perhaps it’s because she’s still young; Chen Muxue calculated the time, and at this moment, before experiencing Xiao Feng’s incident, Xiaohua should still be a naïve and carefree child...

But why were they in the Capital City now, and why had Master Yin brought Xiaohua back?

Some questions finally began to rise in Chen Muxue’s mind, accompanied by waves of headache.

"Shut up!" Master Yin grasped Xiaohua’s neck with one hand, and from the sleeve, many disgusting poisonous insects crawled out, moving onto Xiaohua’s body, ready to spring into action.

"You put down Wu Xin, leave the Yin Family, and never return, and I’ll spare her life." Master Yin commanded, guiding a slender, white worm to crawl into Xiaohua’s nostril.

Bone Marrow Gu, actually used against a child... but after all, he’s from the Yin Family, taking Xiaohua captive, it’s no surprise he would use some disgusting Gu worms.

The Bone Marrow Gu, once it drills into the human brain via the nostril, can survive on brain fluid alone and usually stays inactive, thus unnoticeable. However, as soon as the Gu manipulator gives the command, it will start drilling the brain, turning the brain into cerebral fluid.

Even more disgusting is that if the manipulator dies or loses connection with the Gu, the Bone Marrow Gu will begin to reproduce inside the brain, laying eggs, and undertaking activities not threatening the host’s life. Initially, the host only experiences headaches, drowsiness, and muddled thoughts; gradually, the entire body starts feeling off as the offspring hatch and start seeking places elsewhere.

Once the host can no longer provide the now numerous Bone Marrow Gu with the required sustenance, they will begin to eat meat and marrow. At the moment the host collapses, their already gnawed thin body bursts open, countless Bone Marrow Gu emerge, seeking the next host...

Chen Muxue tossed the Wu Xin heart she held, causing Master Yin to tremble with fear, holding his breath, terrified Chen Muxue might fail to catch it.
