Chapter 11:
Extra I was weak and sickly since I was young.
My father worried about this.
A weak child cannot raise a venomous life insect, otherwise it could be fatal.
So what? Even if the life insect is useless, how many people in the Miaojiang can fight against me? So I chose a harmless bug.
The Yinyuan Gu is non-toxic, docile, and naturally will not harm the body.
When my father found out, he got so angry that he slapped my forehead and called me a disaster.
He said, "When you grow up and meet a girl you like, what will you do if the insect dies?" I stubbornly replied, "I don't need a girl.
It's fine to be alone." If I don't develop feelings, the Yinyuan Gu will naturally not die.
My father got a headache and scolded me, calling me a little rascal and saying I didn't understand what marriage was.
If you could decide, then what's the point of the Yinyuan Gu being a cunning bug! I don't believe it.
Can a small, chubby bug determine my life and death? But later, I had no choice but to believe...
That day, as I passed through a bamboo forest, I felt my life insect restlessly stirring in my dantian.
I took it out, but it instantly flew away somewhere.
Yinyuan Gu doesn't have wings, so I was confused.
Anxious, I searched in the bamboo forest.
Suddenly, I felt a sense of emptiness in my heart, and a wave of panic.
A strange fragrance drifted from somewhere, and relying on my faint sensitivity towards the life insect, I followed the fragrance through the bamboo sea and discovered a stone table.
A beautiful girl was sitting by the table.
On her table was a pot of wine and a bowl of fried golden bugs.
There weren't many left.
She seemed unconcerned, leisurely drinking the wine and crunching on the bugs.
When she saw me, with a drunken smile, she said, "Little brother, why not sit down and eat together?" Furious, I wanted her to pay for my life insect.
I drew my sword and attacked mercilessly.
But unfortunately, she was slippery like an eel, and I never caught her! Who is she after all! I absolutely refuse to believe that she is the one destined for the Yinyuan Gu! This is too absurd...
Unfortunately, over a year has passed, and I still haven't caught her.
I don't know what to do.
The consequences of losing the Lifesource Gu have not yet been manifested, and this unknown fear makes me extremely anxious.
Gradually, I felt the meridians in my body start to reverse, and the true energy became chaotic, causing unbearable pain all over.
It wasn't until I fell unconscious by the roadside that I realized things were going bad.
I never even dreamt that when I woke up, the first person I saw would be the mastermind behind it all.
She truly fears nothing and is incredibly bold.
But this time, I found out who she really is...
I have no idea why she came to save me.
But her presence somehow alleviated the pain inside me.
I don't know why.
However, if I were to kill her at this moment, I would never find out the answer.
It seems like Nanfeng Court's Nuanyu Shengyan already saw through what happened to me.
In his letter, he asked how my father is and how the Lifesource Gu is.
He also asked about the death of the Marriage Gu and who that girl is.
Finally, he asked: when is the wedding? The two of them want to congratulate me in the Miao region.
I was speechless.
I once didn't believe in fate, but the existence of Yao Tai has made me start to doubt.
She is like an evildoer dangling a fishing rod without any bait on it.
Yet, it entices people to curiously explore what is on the hook.
She has hooked me.
Miao region cannot hold her, and I cannot be without her.
