The more she thought, the more confused she became. When Gu Qing Li came back to his senses, he realized that the Profound Gu had already launched an attack during the time he hadn't received her consciousness. He fiercely threw the red Gu to the side, raising his head and releasing black smoke towards the green Gu.
The Green Gu was gliding in the air with ease, dodging lightly and fleeing far away.
The dragon head that was opened up was tiny, and it emitted black clouds. It was like a dragon king rainfall, and the billowing smoke engulfed the red Gu, and the sound of rapid freezing could be heard.
He didn't know what substance the cold air that the Profound Gu spewed out was, but in an instant, the Red Gu was like a dinosaur sealed in the walls of the Ice Age, standing tall and unmoving. From the looks of it, it looked like a piece of black amber, exquisite and wondrous, like a miracle of nature. It was unimaginable that it was actually caused by a small Gu worm.
The red Gu's injuries had obviously affected Gu Qingruo. She, who was occasionally crying out miserably, suddenly quieted down. Her mouth opened and her eyes glazed. Only her body was trembling slightly, as if her face had turned green from the extreme cold.
As a Gu Master, although Zhou Zhen did not have the same feelings as the Gu Master, she still suffered from the controlled backlash. She immediately spat out a mouthful of blood, her mind was extremely sluggish as she scolded the woman, "Can you help me out? Ling Xinning, what exactly are the people you brought here for? "
Ling Xinning gave a cold snort with an expressionless face: "She was brought here by me, and not by me! Chao Yu, even if you don't care about our lives, don't think that you can gain something by yourself. When instructors are teaching us, the first rule is to not sell out your comrades in order to get the upper hand. "
Chao Yu smiled and said, "The instructor also said that when it's necessary to finish the mission first, nobody's life is important. You see, I've killed so many people at the Royal Enclosure. Didn't the lecturer also praise me for being decisive and for handling the matter properly? "
Zhou Zhen took a deep breath. "Do you think that you can control these three Gu after we die?"
Even though she said that, she actually didn't have any confidence. Her hands were slightly trembling, and it could be seen that their hearts weren't all that great.
Chao Yu suddenly smiled charmingly. "Sisters, why are you being so serious? It's just a joke." She took out a very small piece of jade from her sleeve. At first glance, she didn't seem to be able to tell what it was. However, when she put it in her mouth, she made a strange and soft sound.
To others, the sound was just like the chirping of a summer bug, but in Gu Qing Li's ears, it was extremely sharp. It was like a infrasound produced by an explosion, it pierced through the wall and resonated with the organs in her body, causing her heart to tremble, her muscles to spasm violently, and soon the walls of her lungs were damaged, causing her to cough out a large mouthful of blood.
Because of this, the Profound Gu was also hindered, and its movements were slow as it hovered between the Green Gu and Gu Qingli. It sensed the danger of the main body and wanted to rescue it, but the Green Gu's attacks came in wave after wave. Under Ling Xinning's full control, it attacked with all its might, as if it was trying its best to stall it.
The Profound Gu possessed almost the same level of intelligence as a human. Although Gu Qingli's life was very important to it, it wouldn't cause its death. The death of a Gu did not mean the death of a person. Otherwise, Fang Yaju would not be able to smoothly pass the Profound Gu to Gu Qingli after her death.
However, if it were to be distracted by Gu Qing Li right now, it would be facing the Green Gu's life-threatening attack, as well as the Red Gu that could awaken at any time.
Chao Yu's control earlier was similar to self-destruction, not only did it harm Gu Qing Li, it also hurt the Mysterious Gu itself. After it had gone from Fang Yanzhu to Gu Qing Li, it had actually already lost a lot of its vitality and had not recovered.
The jade artifact in Chao Yu's mouth blew more and more violently. She slowly began to form a hand gesture, her eyes also becoming serious.
Zhou Zhen saw through the reversal of the situation and quickly formed a hand seal. She chanted an incantation and with a wave of her hand, the red nebula that had disappeared just now appeared again, it was countless young red insects, although they were not as powerful as the red insects themselves, they would still be infected by the poison.
Ling Xinning also used her remaining strength to summon a small portion of the green Gu larvae and attacked from the front.
Although Gu Qing Li had the ability to detoxify poisons, it was impossible for her to obtain the antidote here. As a Gu Master, Ling Xin Ning could completely cause the infected people to go crazy and attack others. There were so many plague victims in the capital, and they were all poisoned by the Green Gu.
According to Zhou Qianxi, the red Gu's poison was also difficult to deal with. The victim was as stiff as a puppet and could only be commanded by others. Xing'er and Rui Zhu were most likely the same.
Gu Qing Li struggled to get up and leaned against the table. She bit her lower lip and quickly thought of a countermeasure.
There weren't many silver needles, so she couldn't just shoot them all out one by one. Slowly moving her hands behind her back, she found the handle of a teapot in which she drank her tea before dinner.
Holding the handle of the teapot, she felt that there was still more than half a pot left, moving from her back to her chest.
Although she had a lot of people, it was difficult for her to control the Gu, so she had to expend all her energy controlling the Gu worm, causing her body to be unable to free itself. She could only watch helplessly as she raised the teapot to her mouth and drank, wondering if this woman had gone crazy and was drinking tea.
After drinking about half a pot, no one noticed that she had slipped a pill from her sleeve into her mouth.
Suddenly, she opened her mouth and spat out the pot of tea she just drank. The tea that contained the medicine was extremely poisonous and it carried a lot of internal energy. The water was misty and all the Gu worms that touched it fell to the ground.
With this, Zhou Zhen's and Ling Xinning's faces changed drastically. In their anger, there was pain in their hearts.
The two of them were Gu Master, they could not breed Gu worms, and the only Gu they could control was the amount of Gu that the mother Gu could produce. The two of them were Gu Master, so they could not breed Gu worms, and the only Gu they could control was the amount that the mother Gu could produce.
By the time Gu Qing Li spat out his second mouthful of tea, most of the nebula cluster had been destroyed. More than half of them had died.
Of course, Zhou Zhen and Ling Xinning could still forcefully use the remaining young Gu to move forward. As long as there was Gu Qing Li's skin on them, they could be considered victorious. But how could they be willing to sacrifice everything in this kind of four against one situation? He sent a message to recall his Gu worm.
Chao Yu suddenly widened his eyes. The mournful sounds coming from his mouth were even more urgent. It sounded like the demonic creatures of the dark night, or the monstrous waves of the calm sea. His breathing became increasingly short and urgent.
Gu Qing Li's entire body started trembling violently. In the chaos, she swallowed the mouthful of tea that she hadn't spat out. The muscles all over her body trembled. Soon enough, deep, shallow, crisscrossing ravines appeared on the surface of her snow-white skin that looked like the surface of a fissured earth. Blood gushed out, and even the capillaries on her face slightly ruptured.
Amidst the chaos, they could faintly hear Zhou Zhen shouting in panic, "You can't continue to destroy yourself like this. If the Monarch Gu is destroyed, we'll die with him!"
