The Soldier King Becomes a Useless Little Girl-Chapter 698 - 695: Corpse King’s Wife, Spare Me

"Corpse King, Corpse King’s wife, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have coveted the Fu Tian Pill. As long as you two spare my life, I swear to work like an ox or horse for you."

Before the Corpse Leech could explain, Xin Lin directly cast a Fire Explosion Technique onto the top of the Corpse Leech’s head.

Who the hell called you Corpse King’s wife? Which eye of yours saw her related to the Pride Corpse?

As Xin Lin was about to burn the Corpse Leech, Gui Hu swept his sleeve, and the trembling pitiful Corpse Leech was rescued.

"I want to kill him, to avenge Master Ji!"

Xin Lin gritted her teeth furiously.

"People have a saying, ’Every debt has its debtor.’ It was merely an accomplice."

Considering the mention of Corpse King’s wife, Gui Hu decided to save the life of the Corpse Leech.

"Chen He deserves to die too, but it’s not the time to deal with him yet."

Xin Lin pondered briefly.

Chen He is the mastermind behind the scenes; the Corpse Leech is his accomplice.

"This Corpse Leech, before long, can transform into a Two-soul Ghost Beast. It’s a lot more useful than ghost soldiers."

Gui Hu lifted a paw, and upon hearing this, the Corpse Leech nearly burst into grateful tears.

"The venom on it has some uses, but there’s too little of it."

Xin Lin was still considering whether to spare the Corpse Leech’s life.

"Its greatest use, you haven’t discovered yet."

Gui Hu snapped his fingers and the Corpse Leech was flicked into the gutter.

Inside the gutter, besides the organs previously nibbled by the Corpse Leech, there was also the body of a drunk.

The Corpse Leech saw that the pair in front of it were types to kill without spitting out bones. If it didn’t perform well, it might not see tomorrow’s sun.

It twisted its plump bug body and pounced on the corpse.

After a series of squeaks and creaks, in just a moment, the body was covered with insect eggs, and soon after, the eggs turned into numerous maggots. In the blink of an eye, the adult’s body was eaten clean, not even bones were left.

Xin Lin’s eyes sparkled with excitement.

"Now, do you know its use?"

Gui Hu looked at Xin Lin, thinking to himself that little hen indeed was no ordinary woman.

"To destroy corpses and eliminate traces?"

Xin Lin looked at the Corpse Leech.

Taking it with her seemed to have some uses after all.

"Tell her your use."

Gui Hulan’s blue eyes flashed.

"This man was called Wan Quan, a down-and-out resident of the city. He recently sold his wife and children to gamble at the gambling den, and ended up losing his last penny. He planned to rob and murder a lonely old man in the city tomorrow morning."

The Corpse Leech recounted the details of the dead man’s situation as if it were valuable knowledge, even mentioning what he had for dinner and what bad habits he had.

"The body can tell us more than we know. Not just bodies, but any dead person, whether it’s hair or bones, once eaten by the Corpse Leech, memories are somewhat absorbed into it. If you want to get the most information, it’s best to obtain a complete body. Of course, living people work as well. Similarly, devouring a Xuan Spirit Beast has the same effect."

Gui Hu said indifferently.

"This thing is really quite useful?"

Xin Lin looked at Gui Hu with a new perspective.

"It depends on how you use it."

Gui Hu smirked.

"Then I’ll spare your life, but how can I make sure you won’t betray me? You aren’t an Overlord Egg."

Xin Lin muttered.

"I’ve already left a trace of Ghost Energy inside it."

Gui Hu glanced at the Corpse Leech.

The Corpse Leech wore a worried expression, hanging its head low.
