Chapter 305 Backlash
"Tell me, is the disappearance of the secret realm related to you?"
The Miao chieftain had a somber face and spoke in a low voice, yet it made everyone present feel terrified.
It should be noted that the secret realm inside the cave has existed for thousands of years, and no accidents have occurred during this long period of time.
Why did they suddenly disappear this time?
Regardless of whether it has anything to do with these four people.
She wasn't going to let any of the people who came this time get away.
Those who blaspheme against the Gu God deserve to die.
"So what if it is? So what if it isn't? I already said I'd take care of one worm, why don't you believe me?"
Tian Zhenzhen could not comprehend the anger of the Miao family patriarch at this moment.
What's in her hands is hers; there's no reason for her to give it back.
Moreover, these people are so heartless that they sacrificed human lives, so the secret realm ending up in her hands is a meritorious deed.
Suddenly it occurred to me that both of the secret realms I had acquired were so eerie.
They're quick to risk their lives to fill the void.
Hopefully, the next secret realm won't be so thrilling.
It was thanks to meeting this kind-hearted person that the secret realm was taken over, which can be considered as acting on behalf of Heaven.
"It really was you! What did you do to the God of Gu? Why did the secret realm disappear? It must be because you desecrated the God of Gu that he left, right?"
The Miao chieftain, upon hearing this, became increasingly convinced of its truth.
These people must have offended the God of Gu.
In her eyes, the God of Gu was an invincible being, and she simply couldn't believe that these people could harm him.
She kept repeating that it was impossible.
His expression grew increasingly frantic, and when he looked up again, his eyes were stained red with blood.
“You all dare to offend the God of Gu, you all deserve to die.”
As she spoke, she raised her hand, and her fingers instantly turned to withered wood, then continued to grow longer, attacking Tian Zhenzhen and the other three.
However, before these branches could get close, they were separated by Tian Daqiang's energy shield.
Nevertheless, the Miao clan chief had no intention of letting them go and continued to intensify his attacks.
Tian Zhenzhen saw that the energy shield was completely covered by withered tree vines in just a few seconds.
It completely blocked out all light, giving people a feeling of dark clouds looming overhead.
Upon seeing this scene, Liu Xu, despite having witnessed Tian Daqiang's formidable power, still fearfully asked for clarification.
"Sister Tian, we'll be alright, won't we?"
"What's the matter?" Tian Zhenzhen asked indifferently.
Liu Xu was speechless at her words, but Tian Zhenzhen's expression showed no sign of tension.
Well, it seems he's not very knowledgeable.
"Boss, let me try. These white bugs I just collected should work."
Tian Zhenzhen originally wanted Tian Daqiang to handle it directly, but she didn't expect Xiaomei to say that.
Remembering that Xiaomei had said these insects were useful, he nodded in agreement.
She also wanted to see what use these insects were.
With Tian Zhenzhen's approval, Xiaomei took out the insect that was emitting white light.
"Go and take control of those people outside. I believe you have the ability to do so."
As Xiaomei spoke, the white worm clearly resisted and struggled incessantly.
Whether it was a human and an insect communicating or not, Xiaomei continued:
"What good are their offerings to you? If you are unwilling to listen to me, you lose your last value."
I'll erase your consciousness then, since your body still has its uses.
Xiao Mei spoke in the gentlest tone, saying things that terrified the little white worm.
Finally, the little white worm reluctantly agreed.
It's like a tiger fallen into the plains, being bullied by dogs.
In the past, when these humans asked it for help, they had to consider whether it was in a good mood or when it had been treated this way before.
But we have no choice but to do it now; these people are too amazing.
As the little white worm agreed to help, it didn't make any extra movements; it simply stood up.
Then, screams of agony could be heard coming from outside the energy shield.
"No, no, no, how is this possible? My Gu worms are actually turning against me."
"Ahhhh~~~~"
Various incredulous sounds and screams came from outside the energy shield, as if people had been stimulated.
Soon, the vines that had been covering them disappeared, and when Tian Zhenzhen and the others looked over again, they saw the Miao family chief who had just attacked them.
He looked much older.
The skin was like old tree bark, having lost all moisture, wrinkled and rough, making it difficult to distinguish facial features.
Her hands looked as if they had been boiled in hot water, turning into soft, noodle-like shapes, from which a lot of unknown liquid kept flowing out.
The cave was poorly ventilated to begin with, and the air was filled with an unpleasant odor.
It almost suffocated Tian Zhenzhen.
It was only after Tian Daqiang used an energy shield to isolate the odor that they recovered.
"What have you all done? Why are my Gu worms turning against me?"
The Miao clan leader lay on the ground in disbelief, never expecting that the Gu worm she had been fused with for decades would turn against her.
If she suffers a backlash, only death awaits her.
She didn't understand why things had turned out this way.
Moreover, it wasn't just her; everyone who had been infected with the Gu poison suffered a backlash.
Even without Da Tian's intervention, these people are all finished.
"Why? How could you all suffer backlash at the same time? Don't you have any guesses?"
Besides your Gu God, what else could it be?
"Impossible! The God of Gu has protected us for so many years, how could he possibly harm us?"
"And we offer it sacrifices every year, so it's impossible."
The Miao family patriarch was clearly unwilling to believe Tian Zhenzhen's words.
However, judging from her somewhat flustered expression, it was clear that she wasn't unwilling to believe it, but simply couldn't believe it.
"Whether you believe it or not, it's the truth. Xiaomei, you're in charge of handling this."
Tian Zhenzhen has gotten what she wanted; now Xiao Mei can handle the rest.
Just as Tian Zhenzhen was walking out of the cave.
Someone grabbed her trouser leg. Tian Zhenzhen stopped and looked down. She was surprised to find that the person grabbing her trouser leg was Li Wan.
"Tian Zhenzhen, we came out together. You must take us with you when you leave, or you won't have an easy time either."
Tian Zhenzhen thought that Li Wan was asking her to take her away.
I never expected that even in this situation, he would still dare to threaten her.
"If you die here, what's wrong with me?"
Tian Zhenzhen didn't actually want these people to die. Her plan was to erase their memories of coming here and then ask Uncle Hat to save them.
Whether their bodies, already weakened by the insects, could hold out until then was no longer her concern.
"You dare? Are you even human? Seeing us like this, don't you have any compassion? We have so many lives; if anything happens to us, can you take responsibility?"
Li Wan never expected Tian Zhenzhen to be such a vicious woman, actually standing by and watching them die.
They directly threatened everyone's lives.
"I'm sorry, but I really have no sympathy for strangers. I advise you to save your energy and live longer."
After Tian Zhenzhen finished speaking, she walked away without paying any attention to the people's pleas for mercy.
Liu Xu originally wanted to leave as well, but Xiao Mei kept him there.
"You can't leave."
After Tian Zhenzhen and the other two left, the long-quiet Miaoling Mountain became lively again.
While Tian Zhenzhen was lying on the hotel sofa browsing Douyu (a Chinese live streaming platform), she saw a report about Miaoling Mountain.
"There are many poisonous insects in the Miao Mountains, so tourists should be careful."
"The Miaoling Mountains are fraught with danger, with one death and one missing person. We urge everyone to visit well-developed scenic areas when traveling."
Miaoling Mountain isn't very popular; only a few videos of it have appeared on Douyu, the official live streaming platform of Yunnan Province.
One died and one disappeared. The one who disappeared was naturally Lao Yan, and the one who died was Li Wan, since she didn't make it to the rescue.
