If they were in the Bright Spirit Realm, Gu Yanfei would know at least a dozen ways to get rid of Gu worms.
However, in this small world, she could only adopt the gentlest and safest method. After all, An Le was only a fragile mortal, not a strong cultivator.
Gu Yanfei placed the incense stick at the tip of her nose. The wisp of green smoke produced by the burning incense stick drifted into her nose bit by bit.
An Le gently sniffed the incense. Her expression revealed a hint of nervousness and uneasiness.
Gu Yanfei and Chu Yi stood on both sides of the wheelchair and stared unblinkingly at An Le, observing every change in her.
Suddenly, a slender protrusion appeared on the back of An Le’s left hand, spreading the skin on the back of her hand. It was a strange blood-red color, as if the back of her hand had been cut by a blade.
An Le frowned. Her pale and thin face revealed an unbearable expression of pain.
“They’re here,” Gu Yanfei said in a low voice.
These two words were directed at Chu Yi.
Chu Yi immediately understood and pressed down on An Le’s shoulder.
The “blood line” on the back of her hand twisted, faintly discernible, as if something was wantonly swimming under her skin.
” ” An Le let out a low gasp. Her hands gripped the armrests of the wheelchair tightly. Her fingertips were white, and blue veins bulged on her forehead and neck. Her petite body trembled uncontrollably.
Beads of sweat appeared on her pale face, and her teeth sank into her lower lip.
It was obvious that she was enduring extreme pain.
But even so, An Le didn’t cry or scream. Instead, she comforted Gu Yanfei and Chu Yi, “I’m fine… It doesn’t hurt.”
Her soft voice was intermittent.
The Emperor on the gate tower couldn’t sit still anymore. He hurried down from the gate tower and happened to hear his daughter’s words.
Looking at his daughter in pain in the wheelchair, the Emperor’s heart ached. He stopped three to four steps away, almost unable to bear to look.
The “blood line” under the peaceful skin quickly swam up her wrist and into her wide sleeve. Soon, it swam to her snow-white neck and continued to move up…
Soon, a bright-colored “blood line” appeared on the little girl’s small and exquisite face. It twisted into a strange arc, making her look so demonic, as if she would pierce through her skin at any moment and break out of her body. Just looking at her made one’s hair stand on end.
Zhang Min, his daughter, and the middle-aged woman were standing 40 feet away. When they saw this scene, they revealed panicked expressions.
The girl was so frightened that she buried her face in her father’s chest.
Under everyone’s shocked gazes, a long red beard slowly poked out of one of her nostrils, trembling slightly.
Gu Yanfei made a prompt decision and moved the burning incense stickin her hand back a little. The red long beard seemed to be drawn out and continued to extend out at a faster and faster speed.
A red centipede that was an inch and a half long crawled out of her nose. It looked strange, like a centipede but not a centipede.
The parasite crawled at an extremely fast speed. In the blink of an eye, it climbed up the back of Gu Yanfei’s hand along the incense stick. Its mouth made a cold sizzling sound, as if it wanted to enter her body.
This horrifying scene caused a wave of exclamations.
However, Gu Yanfei didn’t panic. She quickly reached out and grabbed one of the red Gu worm’s tentacles. She threw it heavily on the table, making it dizzy.
Then, she pinched its tentacles and lifted it up. She shook it a few times with interest and clicked her tongue. “This is it.”
Everyone’s eyes were filled with shock and they couldn’t help but shiver. Most of them seemed to be strangled and couldn’t make a sound.
The scarlet Gu worm was still alive. It twisted its slender body in midair and waved its hundred feet as it struggled.
Some of the timid women had already turned their heads away. They had goosebumps all over their bodies, and their hair stood on end. There were also some who retreated silently, afraid that the Gu worm’s tentacles would suddenly break and escape from Gu Yanfei’s hands before entering their bodies.
The Emperor, who was a few steps away, seemed to be nailed to the ground. He looked straight at the worm in Gu Yanfei’s hand.
“This is a Gu worm?” The Emperor’s lips parted slightly, and his old and hoarse voice was almost trembling.
It was only at this moment that he realized what was wrong with his daughter.
It wasn’t an illness, but a Gu!
No wonder he couldn’t find the cause of the illness at that time..
