Chapter 15: The Holy Child
About ten minutes later...

tick...

tick...

The sound of dripping blood echoed in the cave, and other than that, there was silence.

"call……"

Xiao Zizai let out a long sigh and showed a satisfied expression. This was the first time since he was born that he had eaten so much, and it was also the first time that he could be so immersed in killing.

Every time in the past, his mind was always confused, but now it is extremely clear. He can savor every detail of the killing, just like tasting delicacies and being able to savor the joy of every detail.

Such a wonderful experience really intoxicated him. He began to feel that meeting Xia Ye was really a good thing. His life truly began from this moment!
Guchi guchi...

After confirming that there were no other Gu Masters in the cave, Xiao Zi's body, which had expanded to three meters, began to wriggle and shrink again, returning to its normal size.

Because his body had expanded too much, his clothes had already been torn into pieces, so he picked up a black robe from the ground and put it on, then began to explore.

Xiao Zizai did not forget that besides destroying the Medicine Immortal Society, he also had another mission, which was to find the possible surviving Gu children and bring them back.

After hearing about the Gu children, he couldn't help but feel pity for them. If he could help these children this time, that would naturally be great.

Soon, he discovered...

"This is……"

When he arrived at a wooden house, Xiao Zizai stopped, looked up, and found that this house was extremely large, at least three times the size of the other wooden houses and occupied a much larger area.

"If I remember correctly, the 'President' just walked out from here..." He narrowed his eyes, "And judging from the way the Gu children were refined, it seems that only this place can accommodate so many children."

Without hesitation, Xiao Zizai pushed the door open and walked into a bedroom. Judging from the lingering scent in the room, it seemed to belong to Jin Quan.

On the wall opposite the door, there was a whole large glass panel. Opposite the glass was a spacious quiet room where a young figure was sitting.

"Ok?"

Seeing this figure, Xiao Zizai immediately walked forward and soon discovered that this seemed to be a one-way glass. Only this side could see the other side, and it was obviously used for observation.

Judging from the figure, the figure in the quiet room seems to be a young girl, about eleven or twelve years old, still very young. She is sitting cross-legged with her eyes closed.

"From the looks of it... is she practicing?"

Seeing that he didn't move, Xiao Zizai couldn't help but squint his eyes, and then his gaze swept around the quiet room, and then his brows tightened.

He discovered that in addition to the girl, there were several other children in the quiet room, but they were all lying on the ground, and seemed to have... stopped breathing?

“Is this what Gu refining is…?”

Seeing this scene, Xiao Zizai's face immediately darkened, a coldness and anger emerged from his eyes, making him clench his fists.

Without any hesitation, he left the room and entered the quiet room from the other door. He did not care about the girl first, but checked the children lying on the ground.

"..."

"They're all dead..."

For a moment, Xiao Zizai closed his eyes and remained silent. He did like killing people, but he only killed those who deserved to be killed. He still couldn't bear to see these lives that shouldn't have died. The next moment, he turned his head and looked at the girl. He quickly stood up and walked in front of her, raising his hand to wake her up so that he could quickly take her away.

however……

Snapped!
Just when Xiao Zizai's palm touched the girl's shoulder, he suddenly felt something trying to get into his palm, but was blocked by the smell of the anti-gu pill. He quickly pulled his hand back and saw the true face of the thing.

Those were extremely tiny black dots, and they didn't look like insects, but seemed to be condensed from Qi. However, they seemed to have life as they squirmed, which made him look surprised.

"Could this be the original Gu?"

Xiao Zizai raised his eyebrows and immediately remembered what Xia Ye had said before. This "original Gu" was the poison spawned by the "Holy Child with Gu Body". It was like Qi but not Qi, like an insect but not an insect. Its toxicity was so strong that even the body would be corroded by it!

Only then did he realize that if it weren't for Xia Ye's anti-poison pill, he might have been poisoned. That guy seemed to have anticipated everything and had really planned for nothing.

Thinking of this, he immediately took out another pill, used his Qi to pry open the girl's mouth, and flicked the pill into her mouth...

Even with such caution, he still almost fell into the trap. The moment his Qi touched the girl, those black spots reappeared and actually directly swallowed up his true Qi, beginning to corrode it like a maggot attached to his bones.

"..."

Upon seeing this, Xiao Zizai acted decisively and directly cut off this part of the true Qi. Although his body suffered some shocks, it was nothing considering his current physique.

Looking at the girl again, after taking the pill, her body shook and a strange power began to surge in her body. She immediately opened her mouth and slowly opened her eyes.

I have to say that the girl's pupils are quite beautiful, a rare emerald green color, and her skin is already fair and delicate, making her look like porcelain jade.

At the same time, she was extremely calm, and the surprise in her eyes only flashed by for a moment, like the surface of a deep lake being gently stroked, causing a few ripples, and then calming down in an instant.

"..."

After opening her eyes, the girl did not react at all. She just stared at Xiao Zizai expressionlessly, as if waiting for something.

Xiao Zizai knew that the reason why she was like this was because all the things that happened in the past had suppressed her nature and made her become like a machine. He couldn't help but tremble with his pupils and felt pity for her again.

But he also knew that given the girl's current state, it would be meaningless for him to say anything to her, so he just said:
"Those guys are all dead. I killed them. Come with me."

"..."

As expected, the girl didn't say anything more, just nodded slightly and stood up. The past "teachings" made her know that she only needed to "obey orders."

At this moment, the medicinal power in her body has taken full effect. Xiao Zizai can sense that those strange "primitive Gu" are all gathered in her lower dantian, as if they are tightly sucked by something.

So, when he tried to touch the girl again, there was really nothing unusual. He stopped hesitating and directly picked her up. He left the cave in a flash and returned to the way he came.

at the same time……

"Chen Duo... not bad."

Outside the forest, Xia Ye, who had been sharing Xiao Zizai's vision, also opened his eyes, his eyelids moved, and a smile appeared on his face.

In this way, his second experiment could also be carried out simultaneously. This was all within his plan, and this was another major reason why he brought Xiao Zizai here...

Everything is going smoothly.
