857 The Mission of the Ten Thousand Gu King (3)

Yu Wan’s eyes darkened. “Is there really no other way?”

Yan Jiuchao said calmly, “The only way to save him is to break through to the ninth level of the Longevity Technique.”

Yu Wan pondered and said, “This should be very difficult. I remember Great-Grandpa saying that he’s been lingering at the eighth level for many years, but he’s still unable to do it.”

Yan Jiuchao said, “Find someone who has already reached the ninth level and give him his strength.”

This was impossible. In this world, no one from the Sikong Clan had cultivated the Longevity Technique to the ninth level. Even the Ghost Clan’s Ghost King had only cultivated it to the sixth level.

Yan Jiuchao continued, “Or we can use the Ten Thousand Gu King as medicine and use poison to urge it. There might be a chance of breaking through to the ninth level.”

Yu Wan was stunned. “You mean… to kill Great Grandpa’s Gu King?”

Yan Jiuchao said, “That Little Gu is fine too. Although it’s a young Gu worm, it has the body of the Gu Emperor.”

Yu Wan was silent.

“You have to make a decision as soon as possible. He doesn’t have much time. Which one do you want to kill… tell me.”

I’ll do it.

Yan Jiuchao stood up and carried the three black eggs back to the room next door.

…

Sikong Changfeng lured all the disciples out and asked them to search the Nether Mountain with all their might. The Nether Mountain was so big that they would probably not be able to finish searching in seven to eight days.

When he returned to Old Master Si Kong’s courtyard, he saw Yu Wan sitting under the porch, at a loss.

Actually, he had already digested most of what he needed to digest on the way. Since Yu Wan was the descendant of Old Ancestor Si Kong, in terms of seniority, they were cousins.

Back then, there were rumors about the Old Ancestor and Saintess Lan Yi. There was a saying that Saintess Lan Yi had once been imprisoned by his great-grandfather and that the Old Ancestor had secretly released her. He had never believed this. However, after recalling the portrait of Saintess Lan Yi and looking at Yu Wan’s face, it did not seem difficult to guess something.

No wonder he felt very close to her. They were family to begin with.

Sikong Changfeng walked over and sat down on the steps. “Are you still worried about the Ancestor’s injuries?”

Yu Wan nodded and told Sikong Changfeng the way to save the Ancestor. Be it Little Gu or the Ten Thousand Gu King, she could not bear to kill them.

Sikong Changfeng was not too surprised after hearing her words. He lowered his eyes and pinched the jade bottle in his hand that was used to store the Ten Thousand Gu King. “Actually… the ancestor… expected such a day.”

Yu Wan looked at him strangely.

Sikong Changfeng said with difficulty, “The reason why the Nether Mountain raised so many Gu is to better raise the Ten Thousand Gu King…”

He didn’t finish his sentence.

Yu Wan muttered to him, “It’s so that one day, when the time is almost up, Great Grandpa can refine it into a pill and help himself break through the time limit.”

“That’s right.” Sikong Changfeng felt a little uncomfortable. After raising the Ten Thousand Gu King for so long, he had long treated it as a part of his life.

Even though Little Gu could do it, that was not its mission.

Sikong Changfeng choked. “I’ve always… always imagined that one day, the ancestor might be able to break through the limit himself, but in the end…”

Yu Wan whispered, “Great-grandpa… probably doesn’t want to kill the Ten Thousand Gu King…”

Otherwise, he would have done this in the tomb, but he chose to close his eyes peacefully. Even though he could not bear to part with the little black eggs and hoped to live, he did not tell her that she could use the Ten Thousand Gu King to save him.

He must be looking forward to another way.

While Yu Wan was in a dilemma, the Ten Thousand Gu King slowly crawled over.

The Ten Thousand Gu King was at the peak of the sixth-stage. It was very difficult for them to deal with it with their current strength. To put it bluntly, Yan Jiuchao had lost all his strength in the past two days. On the other hand, it could take advantage of others’ danger and kill all of them.

However, it did not do so.

It crawled into Yu Wan’s palm, curled its body into a ball, and quietly accepted its fate.
