What do you mean by saying that the corpses I sew are all ominous creatures?

I walked back to the white jade platform.

This time, I did not probe from the air.

I closed my eyes, circulated the cool energy between my eyebrows to its maximum, and pushed my senses to their limit.

At the same time, the evil energy within his body began to circulate wildly, flowing through his meridians and surging into his left arm like a burst dam.

Then, I suddenly opened my eyes, reached out with my left hand, spread my five fingers, and pressed directly onto the location of the vital point under the translucent skin of the Gu King!

With a low shout, the terrifying evil energy of the half-step evil core within my body poured into the Gu King's body through my left hand without reservation!

I originally thought that what followed would be an extremely fierce tug-of-war.

After all, it was a top-tier parasitic Gu worm used by Wandie Valley to plot against the Lan family's strength.

Even if they only have one breath left, their last stand before death should not be underestimated.

But I was wrong.

I underestimated the weakness of that parasitic worm, and even more seriously underestimated how terrifying the evil energy left behind by my grandfather was.

The moment my malevolent energy came into contact with the black malevolent energy entrenched on my Mingmen point, there was no repulsion or collision.

On the contrary, that black aura that had been dormant for thirty years was like a shark smelling blood, or a veteran waiting for the order to rotate shifts.

It instantly "came to life".

I didn't even put in much effort.

The malevolent energy I injected merely served as a "catalyst" and a "bridge".

The black malevolent energy left behind by my grandfather suddenly erupted after sensing the infusion of my own malevolent energy.

In my perception, that mass of black malevolent energy instantly transformed into countless tiny black blades.

It pierced the body of the blue-purple parasitic gu with overwhelming force.

There was no stalemate, and there was no suspense.

The top-tier parasitic gu from the Myriad Butterfly Valley didn't even have time to emit the slightest mental fluctuation.

The parasitic threads were easily severed by the blade of malevolent energy.

Subsequently, the body was instantly annihilated by the baleful blades, turning into a wisp of extremely faint ashes, which completely dissipated into the Gu King's vital point.

Like a roadside tree, it was completely nailed down.

It's that simple.

I stood in front of the white jade platform, somewhat taken aback.

Is that all?

The problem that had plagued the Lan family for thirty years was solved so easily?

However, before I could even breathe a sigh of relief, something unexpected happened.

After the parasitic Gu died, the black evil energy that had been lingering on the Gu King's vital point did not dissipate on its own as I had expected, nor did it continue to linger in the Gu King's body.

It first rolled violently on the spot.

Then, carrying an extremely pure life energy, it surged wildly into my body through my left hand, which was pressed against the skin of the Gu King and had not yet been withdrawn!

"Hmm!"

I let out a muffled groan, and my body jolted violently.

The energy that surged into my body was too immense and too complex.

It contained not only the evil aura of the grandfather, but also a trace of the life essence accumulated by the Gu King during his thirty years of slumber.

Over the past thirty years, Grandpa's malevolent aura and the Gu King's essence have become inextricably intertwined, each containing elements of the other.

At this moment, the evil energy flowed back, naturally drawing in a portion of the Gu King's essence.

This enormous energy instantly surged into my limbs and bones, and the evil energy within me was also instantly swept up and poured back, circulating wildly through my meridians along with this energy.

At this moment, my left arm suddenly experienced a sharp, burning pain.

At that very moment, my vision suddenly blurred.

The stalactites in the underground cave, the white jade platform, and even the blue mountain that sat cross-legged in the distance, all disappeared.

My consciousness seemed to be ripped from my body, plunging into an endless dark space.

In this deathly darkness, I suddenly heard a voice.

A voice I've longed for day and night, yet thought I'd never hear again in this lifetime.

"Judging by the time, Yangwa should have arrived at the Lan family by now."

The voice was deep, with a grainy quality left from years of smoking dry tobacco.

But there was a familiar and kind tone in his voice that made my nose tingle.

"grandfather?!"

I turned around abruptly in the darkness and shouted.

But no one responded to me.

All around was still boundless darkness, with only that voice continuing to echo in the void.

I quickly calmed down.

I tried to use my consciousness to reach the source of the sound.

It was discovered that this was neither a communication of souls nor a resurrection.

This was merely a "recorded sound" attached to that mass of malevolent energy, or rather, a memory imprint sealed deep within the malevolent energy.

Grandpa can't hear me at all.

He was simply following the program set up back then, speaking his unfinished words to the person who might one day break the seal in the future.

I stood in the darkness, my eyes slightly burning, clenching my teeth, listening quietly.

"Yangwazi, if you hear this, it means you have already arrived in Southern Xinjiang."

Moreover, they have already encountered some trouble from the Valley of Ten Thousand Butterflies.

Grandpa paused for a moment, seemingly puffing on his pipe.

That familiar gasping sound made me feel as if I could see his back as he squatted on the threshold of the old house.

"Back then, when I stormed into the Lan Clan, it was only to repay a favor from one of the Lan Clan elders."

Grandpa spoke in a very calm tone, as if he were recounting a trivial matter.

"That elder once did me a great favor when I was young, and I, Chen Xuan, do not owe anyone any favors."

So, I spared the life of this Gu King and used my evil energy to seal the disgusting worm on its vital point.

The original intention was to leave some descendants for the Lan family, in order to repay their kindness.

My heart stirred slightly upon hearing this.

"I originally thought this was just an ordinary internal conflict in Miao territory."

The Butterfly Valley is merely using someone else to do their dirty work and annex the Lan family.

At this point, Grandpa's voice suddenly became serious.

"Until ten years ago."

ten years ago?

Grandpa returned to the Lan family ten years ago. Did he discover something back then?

Grandpa's voice continued: "Ten years ago, I found out some things."

Only then did I realize that the matter of Butterfly Valley was not as simple as I had imagined.

Grandpa's voice revealed a hint of weariness and deep apprehension.

"That place... hides a huge secret."

Their ambitions extend far beyond just the southern border region.

"At that time, it was already unavoidable for me to become enemies with Wandie Valley."

Moreover, I knew that, given my condition at the time, I probably wouldn't be able to completely resolve the matter of Butterfly Valley in a short period of time.

At this point, Grandpa sighed, his voice full of helplessness and concern: "My old bones are just going to die."

But what I worry about most is you.

Yangwa, you are the only son of my Chen family.

"If anything happens to me, those people from Butterfly Valley will come after you sooner or later."
