Chapter 20.1: Little Grub That's a Beauty Fanatic
That voice had a clear raspiness to it, a little stinging and harsh on the ears.
And that sound had come out from that fleshy looking grub that was now unable to move in the slightest.
"The grub's cultivation must have let it evolve into an evil spirit! It can actually talk?" Bai Zhi Yan knew that the worm no longer posed to be a threat and he was crouched down in a squat, looking at it appraisingly.
It's body was about the size of a baby's fist, rotund in shape, with two antennae on its head, its body in alternating colours of blue and red. Its eyes were grey, and they looked a little malevolent.
"Heh heh, it looks really ugly." Bai Zhi Yan surmised.
"You're the ugly one! Your whole family's ugly!" The ice and fire Yin Yang Grub retorted angrily.
Of course it knew that it was not great looking and that was why it would only choose people with outstanding looks to be its host. It had an inferiority complex and was highly irritable, detesting people who said it was ugly the most.
If not for the fact that it was not able to move right at that moment, then it would surely have wanted to kill that foul mouthed man.
Qing Yu observed the man lying on the bed carefully for a while. After ascertaining that there was no other symptoms that presented a threat to his life, she then slowly turned herself around, to look down at that little grub who was exchanging glares with Bai Zhi Yan.
It looked utterly disgusting and Qing Yu was getting an uncomfortable feeling in her stomach, the expression on her face turning cold.
The grub worm that had still been rambling on with curses suddenly froze and stared in a daze at the dazzling white clothed youth.
It was impossible to tell whether those exquisite facial features were male or female but they were imbued with a kind of gentleness that was more beautiful than what most youths possessed, and without the wilful recklessness of young girls, with a sort of heavenly indolence. His eyes were tinged with a bit of iciness, and a noticeable amount of disgust, but none of that reduced any of his good looks.
The ice and fire Yin Yang Grub had lived for more than a hundred years and it had never seen a person with such flawless looks. He was in fact more beautiful looking than all the handsome men it had ever seen put together.
At that moment, its eyes were filled with surprise and joy, completely disregarding the fact that it was currently trapped, and it was all caused by that very same youth.
Qing Yu saw the way the worm was staring at her and she became even more impatient. She pulled out another wooden bottle and then put the bug into it.
That little fella was completely immersed in her beauty and it did not put up any resistance as it was being put into the bottle.
It was only after it was trapped in that sealed s.p.a.ce that it was finally able to react, struggling and roaring out in violent rage.
Qing Yu closed her palm over the bottle and sent a bolt of spirit power to strike inside the bottle. The grub worm immediately quietened down, having been knocked unconscious by that surge of power that had struck so abruptly.
She tossed the bottle to Bai Zhi Yan and he caught it instinctively. He then asked feeling rather confused: "Why have you given it to me for?"
In the end, all he got was a roll of the lad's eyes as he said: "You don't really think that your Lord is fine just by getting that worm out of him are you?"
"Isn't that the case? ?"
"The ice and fire Yin Yang Grub is one that is ranked highly among voodoo grubs used in Ancient Witchcraft. If not for the fact that I had a certain understanding about them from before, I would not have been able to get it out so easily. That worm has stayed in your Lord's body for too long a period of time and I think it has consumed quite a bit of your Lord's essence energy. You will need to refine that grub within the span of three days and extract the crystal out of its brain for your Lord to absorb to root out his condition completely."
"I see." Bai Zhi Yan nodded, but then suddenly seemed to have thought of something. "Why do you not do the refinement yourself?"
Things have already come to such a late stage, why not see the treatment all the way through to its end?
"I don't want." Qing Yu crinkled up her nose in contempt. "That thing is too disgusting."
"….." Bai Zhi Yan was speechless but could not help laughing. At that moment, the lad was acting very much like a little kid.
