The Soldier King Becomes a Useless Little Girl-Chapter 937 - 935: The Disappearing Martial Meridian
After diagnosing Chu Beiqing, Xin Lin breathed a sigh of relief.
The toxins in Chu Beiqing’s body had been completely cleared.
Yet, Xin Lin still harbored many doubts in her heart.
Who exactly are the Second Lady Chu and that mysterious black-clad person?
They should still be hiding in the shadows, observing every move her father made.
Xin Lin thought for a moment and took out the bottle from earlier that contained the Three Corpse Worms.
Inside the bottle were probably five or six Three Corpse Worms. Without the Essence Blood to sustain them, they were now dejected and weak.
Xin Lin took the Corpse Leech out from the Tuling hairpin.
She didn’t understand the language of insects, making it impossible to communicate with the Three Corpse Worms. But the Corpse Leech was different; it understood human language and knew the habits of insects.
Upon seeing the several Three Corpse Worms, the tiny eyes of the Corpse Leech glowed green.
In contrast, those Three Corpse Worms huddled together in fear.
"Corpse Leech, I’ll leave these Three Corpse Worms to you. Ask them about their origins and find out who their master is."
Xin Lin wanted to unravel the details about the Poison Saint.
Although Young Prince Tu had been frightened away by her, once he returned to Tu Yuan Country, he would surely explain the whole situation to the Poison Saint.
If the Poison Saint remained unsatisfied and tried to harm her father again, Xin Lin would need to be prepared.
"Leave it to me."
The Corpse Leech’s drool dripped everywhere.
Although it was known as the Corpse Leech, it didn’t prefer eating human corpses.
After all, human flesh had already decayed and soured.
Its preference was for fresh human flesh, but unfortunately, after being captured by Xin Lin, it couldn’t eat live humans anymore. However, live insects were a different matter.
Especially these few Three Corpse Worms; although they looked starved, they had been nourished in Chu Beiqing’s body for over a decade, making their blood incredibly precious.
The Corpse Leech gnawed its teeth and lunged forward.
Soon after, it burped contentedly, its worm body now plump.
"The origins are clear; these worms are raised by someone from Tu Yuan Country known as the Poison Saint. This person excels in using poison and raised them to get rid of Chu Beiqing. They said that although this person’s Martial Meridian was removed, he is still alive. Planting the Three Corpse Worms on him was intended to exhaust all his Essence Blood."
Hearing this, Xin Lin’s eyes narrowed.
Martial Meridian?
Something flashed through her mind.
She had always thought that her father’s lack of cultivation was due to someone sealing his vital points, but it turned out...
No wonder her father had strength but no True Qi.
A rush of crimson fury surged in Xin Lin’s eyes.
The adversary’s methods were cruel; they not only eradicated her father’s Martial Meridian but poisoned him, intending to leave him for dead.
"However, according to those worms, the Poison Saint was also commissioned and received benefits from someone, which led to raising them. Moreover, the other party required that Chu Beiqing not die immediately and must suffer for at least ten years, living a fate worse than death."
Even the Corpse Leech, who had witnessed countless cruel means, found the perpetrator extremely malicious.
It’s one thing to cripple someone’s cultivation, but to poison them as well, and not allow them a swift death, instead making them suffer for a full decade.
What kind of hatred is this?
"As for who the other party is, it’s unknown. Those worms are exceptionally foolish, understanding nothing besides eating. Additionally, Chu Beiqing’s flesh and blood could have sustained them for about half a year, but the previous day, someone used poison powder to stimulate them, causing an early outbreak of Chu Beiqing’s toxins."
The Corpse Leech smacked its lips.
