Chapter 611: Ancestor Killer
Jiang Yue smiled.
"It’s about time." He muttered
"Let’s go." Yu Nianzhen said with a helpless expression.
"Mmmm." Jiang Yue took his lover’s hand and walked out of their courtyard.
A guard was posted at their courtyard gate.
At this time, the guard was craning his neck but failing to see what was happening.
’Why am I stuck guarding this damned courtyard?’ He wordlessly complained.
Just then, a male voice came from the courtyard.
"Guard over there, do you know what’s going on?" Jiang Yue asked.
Hearing this, the guard turned around.
"Two seniors." The guard greeted the two and quickly continued.
"I don’t know what is happening, but the scream sounded like the thirteenth concubine."
"The thirteenth concubine...." Jiang Yue frowned and pretended to remember.
"Daoist friend Qiao Mu?"
"That’s her." The guard nodded.
"Can you lead us to her courtyard?
When he heard this, the guard frowned.
On one hand, he wanted to find out what was happening, but on the other, he was under strict instructions to watch the two people.
"Are you afraid we will run away?" Jiang Yue chuckled, and the guard guiltily looked away.
However, after thinking about it, he felt it didn’t matter if the two went to the courtyard of the thirteenth concubine.
As long as the two people didn’t escape, everything would be fine.
’I just have to watch them carefully.’ The guard thought.
Soon after, the three left the guest courtyard and walked towards the courtyard of the thirteenth concubine.
Along the way, they encountered a lot of people.
Unfortunately, no one seemed to know what was going on.
An incense stick later, they finally arrived at the courtyard.
By this time, several people, including Fang Tiancheng, Li Wushuang, Li Chen, and Fang Zongsheng had arrived.
"Housekeeper Li, did something happen?" Jiang Yue asked.
"Young master Jiang, young master Yu, you also came? Thanks to the soul-cleansing pills you provided, the eighth young master has recovered." Li Chen expressed his gratitude.
"That’s good news." Jiang Yue smiled
However, several others turned gloomy when they heard the news.
After all, they had all expected someone to do something to prevent Fang Ye’s recovery.
Unexpectedly, the scourge still survived.
’Useless trash.’ Li Wushuang silently cursed.
"Housekeeper Li, did something happen to the thirteenth concubine?" Yu Nianzhen asked.
Hearing this, Li Chen sighed and tipped his chin to the right.
When Jiang Yue and Yu Nianzhen looked over, they saw Qiao Mu sitting cross-legged on the ground.
Most importantly, a brown centipede was stuck to her right cheek.
"This..." Jiang Yue pretended to be surprised.
Although Jiang Yue and Yu Nianzhen were busy with each other, their spiritual sense didn’t miss the centipede.
At the time, Yu Nianzhen wanted to kill the creature directly.
However, Jiang Yue had a better idea.
Using his illusion technique, he confused the centipede and ’returned it to sender’.
After that, the two waited for the show to begin.
"That centipede..." Yu Nianzhen muttered with a thoughtful expression.
"Nephew Yu, do you know something?" Fang Tiancheng asked.
"Concubine Qiao is so amazing." Jiang Yue jumped in.
"Why do you say that?" Housekeeper Li asked.
"If I am not mistaken, that centipede is the ancestor killer. Amazingly, concubine Qiao is still alive after being beaten by it."
"Ancestor killer?"
These two words were a stone in a still lake.
In the blink of an eye, everyone, including Fang Tiancheng retreated a few metres.
Seeing this, Jiang Yue rolled his eyes.
’They may not have noticed it was the ancestor killer, but didn’t they notice it’s a level five beast? How careless.’ He thought.
"Wait..., this is not the ancestor killer." Someone said.
"The ancestor killer is the contract beast of the centipede elder of the Five Poisons sect. Everyone knows it’s a spotted sixty-legged purple centipede. This one is a brown centipede."
"Surname Jiang, what are you planning to do?" Someone questioned.
However, Jiang Yue didn’t answer.
Instead, he turned to the city lord.
"What does city lord Fang think?" He asked.
"It’s indeed the ancestor killer." Fang Tiancheng frowned.
When he arrived, he was more concerned about Qiao Mu and didn’t carefully look at the centipede.
Now that he did, he saw the purple under the brown mud.
At the same time, a cold chill crept up his spine.
’Fortunately, this ancestor killer seems to like Qiao Mu. If it targeted me, I would have no way to resist.’
Thinking this way, Fang Tiancheng took out his communication jade and messaged several honorary elders.
Since the Fang family was an alchemist clan and few cultivators were good fighters, the Fang clan recruited many honorary elders.
In exchange for the protection of the honorary elders, the Fang family gave them pills and a fixed number of immortal stones.
"Daoist friend Jiang and Daoist friend Yu don’t seem afraid of the ancestor killer. Why is that?" Li Wushuang suddenly asked.
Hearing that, everyone looked at the two with suspicious expressions.
Now that they looked, they saw the people stood close to Qiao Mu.
Most importantly, they didn’t look wary of the ancestor killer.
"Is it true that surname Jiang and surname Yu are disciples of the Five Poisons sect?"
"Why else would they not be afraid of the ancestor killer?"
"Concubine Qiao has been suspicious of the two since they arrived at the city lord’s residence? Is this why they attacked her?"
"Concubine Qiao is so beautiful, but after this..." Someone sighed.
Hearing this, Qiao Mu almost vomited blood.
She originally planned to use the ancestor killer on Fang Tiancheng.
However, reality couldn’t keep up with the changes, and she was forced to use it on Fang Ye.
Since the ancestor killer was a level-five demonic beast, killing an origin forging realm cultivator was an easy mission.
As a result, Qiao Mu didn’t suspect anything when the ancestor killer returned from its mission.
She only thought Fang Ye didn’t scream because he was bitten to death while still unconscious.
However, her assumption was wrong.
