When Zhou Wen heard their conversation, how could he not understand? The Dugu family's guess was right. Back then, it wasn't Gu that killed and dug out the infant. It was done by the Xiao family.
They refined the infant into a Kuman Nee and advanced it to the Mythical stage.
Zhou Wen's understanding of Kuman Nee was very limited. He didn't know how Kuman Nee grew up, but the Xiao family had probably tried their best.
Now that they couldn't control Kuman Nee, they wanted to use Wang Chan to refine another Kuman Nee to restrain Gu Lady Kuman Nee.
What a vicious Xiao family. In such an era, it's not wrong to want to become stronger. It's not wrong to use all sorts of means, but to be so vicious, one has to be prepared to be treated the same. Zhou Wen's killing intent rose.
Zhou Wen wanted to summon the Light Concealment Sword and kill Xiao Liuqi and Xiao Tianfang first. The two of them definitely wouldn't be wronged. As for the other Xiao family members, he would decide based on the situation.
Just as he was about to take action, he suddenly realized that the girl was standing in front of him as though she wanted to stop him from attacking Xiao Liuqi and Xiao Tianfang.
Zhou Wen looked at the girl in front of him and suddenly understood something. He thought to himself, Could this girl be the Gu Lady that they refined into a Kuman Nee?
The more Zhou Wen thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible. The one consecrated in the temple hall was likely Gu Lady Kuman Nee. Then, this strange girl was very likely what Gu Lady would look like when she grew up.
Typically, Kuman Nee wouldn't grow up, but after Kuman Nee and Essence Energy Arts combined, anything was possible.
She's now under the Xiao family's control. If I kill someone from the Xiao family, she will definitely become my enemy. With this in mind, Zhou Wen didn't take action for the time being.
Gu Lady was a pitiful person. If she wasn't born magical, she wouldn't have been harmed by the Xiao family. Even her parents died tragically. She was refined into a Kuman Nee before she was even born. It could be said to be extremely tragic.
Zhou Wen wasn't sure if she could survive if he killed her master, so he planned on not taking action.
Xiao Tianfang thought for a moment and continued, "Regardless of whether the Wang family senses it or not, let's put Wang Chan's matter aside for now. Let's try our best to capture the Ice Silkworm Gu King. If we have the Ice Silkworm Gu King, we won't have to rely too much on Gu Lady's strength."
"The Ice Silkworm Gu isn't easy to capture. I originally thought that with Gu Lady's help, we would be able to capture it. I knew that there wasn't one Ice Silkworm King, but a pair. Gu Lady isn't a match for the pair. We still. I need to think of another way.
"How's the taming of that Mythical Blood Scorpion Gu? Can it be used?" Xiao Tianfang asked after some thought.
Xiao Liuqi said with a bitter smile, "I don't know why, but the Mythical Gu that we used Gu Lady to capture are especially difficult to tame. The three from before refused to submit after being tamed for so long. This one is slightly better, but I can barely control it. I can't control it as I wish."
"That's enough. Bring it along and use it to distract the Ice Silkworm Gu King. As long as the pair of Ice Silkworm Gu Kings are separated, Gu Lady should be more than enough to deal with one." Xiao Tianfang looked at the Kuman Nee on the offering table and continued, "Prepare the Blood Scorpion Gu. We'll go tomorrow to prevent any accidents. Worm Dugu is also eyeing the pair of Ice Silkworms. We can't let him succeed first."
"I understand. I'll prepare it now," Xiao Liuqi replied.
"Do a good job. In the future, you will take over the position of family head. However, as family head, you first have to have strength that convinces others. If you can successfully capture the pair of Ice Silkworm Gu Kings this time, you will be able to tame and control one of them, "Xiao Tianzong said.
"Brother, you are in your prime …" Xiao Liuqi was immediately overjoyed, but he didn't dare show it.
Xiao Tianfang waved his hand. "I know my own matters. All these years, in order to suppress and control Gu Lady, my body has been deteriorating day by day. My mind is failing as well. In the future, the Xiao family will still have to rely on you. You should bear the responsibility."
"Brother, don't worry. I definitely won't let you down," Xiao Liuqi hurriedly said.
"Alright, go prepare first. I hope the capture of the Ice Silkworm Gu King will go smoothly." Xiao Tianfang gestured for Xiao Liuqi to send him out.
After Xiao Liuqi left, Xiao Tianfang stood in front of the Kuman Nee alone. He reached out to touch the crystal barrier outside and said with a strange expression, "It's been so many years, but I still haven't been able to completely tame you. Now that the plan to snatch Wang Chan's Misfortune Kuman Nee has failed, if you still don't submit, I can only take the final step. My body really can't take it anymore. After I obtain the Ice Silkworm Gu King, I'll completely wipe away your consciousness. Although that will greatly reduce the Kuman Nee's spirituality and abilities, you have forced me into a corner. This is the only step I can take … "
Xiao Tianfang stood there and looked at the Kuman Nee for a while before leaving the courtyard.
From beginning to end, the girl stood in front of Zhou Wen, preventing him from harming Xiao Tianfang.
"Why are you still protecting him after he caused you such harm?" Zhou Wen asked.
The girl remained silent, but Zhou Wen seemed to think of a reason and asked, "Is it because he's your master? If he dies, you will also be hurt?"
The girl unexpectedly nodded as though she was confirming Zhou Wen's words.
Zhou Wen was overjoyed when he saw the girl finally react. He asked, "Is there a way to prevent you from being hurt?"
The girl only looked at him without answering.
Zhou Wen snapped to his senses and knew that the girl couldn't speak. Therefore, he pointed at the Kuman Nee on the offering table and said, "If he transfers this to me, will you not be hurt after he dies?"
This time, the girl had a reaction and nodded again.
"Alright, I know what to do. Wait for me for a few days. I'll soon save you," Zhou Wen said to the girl before turning to walk out of the temple hall.
The girl seemed to understand what he meant and didn't stop him this time. After Zhou Wen left the courtyard, he temporarily left the Xiao family.
Gu Lady was very magical. Zhou Wen didn't want to see her die with Xiao Tianfang. He planned on getting Gu Lady over first before settling the score with the Xiao family for Wang Chan.
After Zhou Wen left the Xiao family, he returned to his residence and called Gu Shanshui. Thankfully, he had already arrived in Mong Hsat and his phone had a signal. He quickly picked up the call.
Zhou Wen asked some questions about Kuman Thong and Kuman Nee and confirmed that his plan was feasible.
At night, Worm Dugu and Li Xuan returned together. The situation didn't look good, and Worm Dugu's expression was especially ugly.
Li Xuan didn't say anything today. Zhou Wen knew that Worm Dugu's failure was definitely tragic, so Li Xuan didn't say anything.
