"I need this Ice Silkworm Gu King to exchange for your freedom," Zhou Wen said as he pointed at the Ice Silkworm on the ground.
Gu Lady nodded before tapping the Ice Silkworm with her finger. The ferocious and domineering Ice Silkworm obediently crawled towards Zhou Wen and stopped by his feet. However, it had no intention of attacking him.
From the looks of it, the Xiao family has really underestimated Gu Lady's strength. If they knew that Gu Lady can easily make a top-notch Gu like the Ice Silkworm obey her orders, I wonder what expression they would have.
Zhou Wen took out the Essence Gold Pot that Worm Dugu had prepared and placed it on the ground. The Ice Silkworm jumped in like a pet being reared by someone.
Zhou Wen's heart stirred as he looked at Gu Lady and asked, "Can you secretly control the other Ice Silkworm Gu and make it look like I've captured it?"
Gu Lady nodded again. From the looks of it, she could do it.
"Then control that Ice Silkworm Gu later and get it to pretend that I've captured it." Zhou Wen told Gu Lady his plan. After confirming that she could understand, Zhou Wen took the Ice Silkworm in the Essence Gold Pot and sneaked back to where Li Xuan and company were.
"Oh no, Gu Lady actually failed. Someone snatched the Ice Silkworm." Xiao Tianfang's expression suddenly changed.
"How is this possible? Who can snatch the Ice Silkworm in front of Gu Lady without anyone noticing? "Xiao Liuqi jumped in fright as he said in disbelief.
"I don't know. The Gu we set up didn't react at all. Gu Lady didn't discover any traces of him either." Xiao Tianfang's expression was ugly as he continued, "I've already summoned Gu Lady back. Now, we can only do our best to capture this Ice Silkworm."
Just as Xiao Tianfang said that, he saw Zhou Wen, who had left previously, return to Worm Dugu's side. He said a few words to Worm Dugu before walking towards the Ice Silkworm.
Could it be that he snatched the other Ice Silkworm? Xiao Tianfang's heart skipped a beat.
However, Xiao Liuqi had already led his men to block Zhou Wen, preventing him from approaching the battlefield. At the same time, he shouted at Worm Dugu, "Old Master Dugu, we are capturing this Ice Silkworm. It's not appropriate for you to interfere, right?"
Worm Dugu said with a smile, "I'm still here. He didn't even move. When did he intervene in your affairs? "
"The Dugu family has always been open and aboveboard. Old Master Dugu, don't tell me that this friend isn't from your Dugu family?" Xiao Liuqi said as he pointed at Zhou Wen.
"I really wish that he was a member of our Dugu Family. Unfortunately, he isn't." Without waiting for Xiao Liuqi to say anything, Worm Dugu continued, "However, you can't say that he has nothing to do with our Dugu family. Although he's not a member of our Dugu family, he's my uncle-master."
Xiao Liuqi, Xiao Tianfang, and company were alarmed. Although Worm Dugu wasn't someone with real power in the Dugu family, his seniority was rather high. Furthermore, he was very famous for raising Gu. He was a famous master in the South District.
It was unbelievable that Worm Dugu actually said that the youth in front of him was his uncle-master. However, a figure like Worm Dugu clearly wouldn't joke about such matters.
Could it be that this person has already cultivated to the point of regaining his youth? He looks young, but is actually an old monster? Xiao Tianfang thought to himself.
"Since he's your uncle-master, don't you think it's appropriate for him to do this?" Xiao Liuqi said.
Worm Dugu continued smiling and said, "It's useless for you to say that to me. Only an uncle-master can discipline his disciple. When have you ever seen a disciple discipline an uncle-master?"
"Sir …" Xiao Liuqi looked at Zhou Wen and was about to say something when he suddenly saw Zhou Wen extend his hand and grab. A blood-red vortex appeared on his palm and sucked in the Ice Silkworm that was fighting the Blood Scorpion.
The majestic Ice Silkworm couldn't withstand the suction force of the blood-colored vortex and was sucked into the Essence Gold Pot by Zhou Wen.
"How is this possible?" It wasn't just the Xiao family. Even Worm Dugu widened his eyes as though he had seen a ghost.
Although he had imagined that Zhou Wen might subdue the Ice Silkworm, he never expected it to be in such a manner.
Worm Dugu originally imagined that Zhou Wen would use the chick's restraining effect before using various means and Mythical Companion Beasts to fight the Ice Silkworm and finally subdue it.
However, to his surprise, Zhou Wen extended his hand and sucked the Ice Silkworm into the Essence Gold Pot. It was as though he wasn't collecting a Gu King but an ordinary worm.
The Xiao family's eyes nearly popped out. They had fought the Ice Silkworm for so long, so they naturally knew how terrifying it was.
Up to now, they had lost hundreds of Gu and Kuman Thongs, but they were still helpless against the Ice Silkworm. Even the Mythical Blood Scorpion Gu was about to be killed.
However, Zhou Wen had used one hand to capture the Ice Silkworm. What terrifying strength was this? It was unbelievable.
As expected of Worm Dugu's uncle-master. He's indeed an old monster. Xiao Tianfang was secretly alarmed as his expression turned extremely ugly.
After spending so much effort and paying such a huge price, the Ice Silkworm had been casually captured by someone else. Xiao Tianfang didn't need to guess to be certain that the other Ice Silkworm had definitely been taken away by Worm Dugu's uncle-master.
He wanted to snatch it, but Worm Dugu alone made him lose the courage to do so. Furthermore, the person in front of him was Worm Dugu's uncle-master, an existence who had subdued the Ice Silkworm with one hand.
Only then did Xiao Tianfang feel a sinister aura return and enter the Kuman Nee in his hand.
"I came back too late." Xiao Tianfang was somewhat helpless.
"The Kuman Nee in your hand is rather interesting," Zhou Wen said as he looked at the Kuman Nee in Xiao Tianfang's hand.
The Xiao family's expressions changed. An existence that could capture the Ice Silkworm with one hand probably had no chance of resisting if he were to snatch their Kuman Nee.
Even a Mythical Kuman Nee probably didn't have the ability to fight such an existence.
"Old Master Dugu, the Dugu family is the head of the South District. You won't watch your uncle-master snatch our Kuman Nee, right?" Xiao Liuqi felt uneasy as he looked at Worm Dugu and said through gritted teeth.
"Who said I'm snatching your things? I just found it a little special and asked in passing. Even if I really want it, I won't snatch the things of juniors like you. At most, I'll buy your Kuman Nee. Why snatch it?" Zhou Wen said before Worm Dugu could speak.
"This Kuman Nee is our Xiao family's heirloom. It's not for sale," Xiao Liuqi said.
"You won't sell it even if I exchange it with the Ice Silkworm?" Zhou Wen said indifferently.
"You want to use the Ice Silkworm to exchange for the Kuman Nee?" Xiao Tianfang and Xiao Liuqi were taken aback.
"Why? You're not even exchanging for the Ice Silkworm? What about the two Ice Silkworms? "Zhou Wen continued.
"Do you really want to use two Ice Silkworms to exchange for the Kuman Nee?" Xiao Tianfang and Xiao Liuqi looked at each other and saw the pleasant surprise in each other's eyes.
From their point of view, although Gu Lady Kuman Nee was indeed very strong, she was only slightly stronger than an Ice Silkworm. Two Ice Silkworms were much more practical than Gu Lady Kuman Nee.
Furthermore, Gu Lady Kuman Nee would bite back at her master. Xiao Tianfang would even consider exchanging one Ice Silkworm, much less two.
"Uncle-Master, you mustn't." Worm Dugu jumped in fright. Using two Ice Silkworms to exchange for the Kuman Nee was a disadvantageous deal no matter how he looked at it.
However, they had no idea that the two Ice Silkworms were far inferior to Gu Lady. They weren't on the same level at all. Even if they really exchanged, Zhou Wen would still benefit greatly. Furthermore, he had no intention of really giving the Ice Silkworms to the Xiao family.
