Chapter 729: Chapter 363: Issue a Challenge_3 Chapter 729: Chapter 363: Issue a Challenge_3 Thinking of this, Liu Wentian curiously asked, “Is that Gu witch still alive?”

According to his speculation, it seemed unnecessary for the Gu witch to continue letting Long Yuanyang harbor resentment towards the world after she possessed the Soul-Exiting Poison Physique.

“She should have passed away. I saw Long Girl from a distance before, and that cheongsam she wore was what the Gu witch used to wear,” the old man said.

Liu Wentian paused in surprise, not expecting that the woman was quite nostalgic, still wearing the Gu witch’s cheongsam even after her death.

He didn’t mind wearing clothes from the deceased; for someone like him, there were not so many taboos as ordinary people might have.

The old man continued, “Her father also died of depression not long after, handing me this wooden carving on his deathbed, hoping I could one day give it to Long Yuanyang. Unfortunately, though I have seen Long Girl a couple of times, she disappeared immediately each time I called her, clearly not wanting to see anyone from our Miao Village.”

Liu Wentian nodded and said, “Alright, I will give her the wooden carving and also tell her about her parents.”

When he returned to the valley, it was already around 12 o’clock.

Liu Wentian didn’t think twice and headed straight for the stilt house. As for the woman’s warning about him not coming close to the stilt house, he had long thrown that out of his mind.

“Eh, at this time, her Soul-Exiting Poison Physique should be acting up again, right?” Liu Wentian had just stepped into the stilt house when he suddenly remembered and muttered to himself.

At night, when the Yin Qi was most potent, was when the Lifebound Gu within the Soul-Exiting Poison Physique became restless, bringing unbearable pain to its host.

Thinking of this, Liu Wentian moved around inside the stilt house, searching.

Finally, outside one of the rooms, he heard breathing sounds.

The breathing was slightly rapid as if enduring something.

“This time I came prepared.” Liu Wentian said with a smile, then took out a small bottle from his clothes, uncorked it, and applied a bit of emerald green liquid onto his body.

Then, he pushed the door open.

Almost instantly, countless flashes of lightning-like lights shot towards Liu Wentian.

All were Gu Insects of varied colors, each carrying deadly poison, among them was the “Purple Blood Insect” that had caused Liu Wentian a great loss that day.

However, when these Gu Insects were less than half a meter from Liu Wentian, they suddenly stopped as if encountering something terrifying and buzzed around him, not daring to get closer.

“The same trick won’t work on me a second time,” Liu Wentian said quite smugly.

But, the fact was just so.

He had not cultivated Gu Insects, but he knew much about Gu Art. Having been tripped up once, how could he possibly come here again without any preparation!

This emerald green liquid was a formula he obtained from his inheritance. It wouldn’t hurt humans, but for Gu Insects, it was deadly poison that could kill them almost instantly!

Gu Insects were extremely sensitive to the odor released by the emerald green liquid, hence they dared not attack at this time!

Liu Wentian finished speaking, and waving at Long Yuanyang who was sitting on the bed, leaning against the wall, and glaring at him, he smiled and said, “Beautiful, what would you do if I attacked you now?”

During the nighttime, when the Lifebound Gu was restless and hard to command, was when the host’s weakest moment.

Liu Wentian had already guessed that at such times, even if Long Yuanyang was convinced no one would come, she would still have her Gu Insects on alert to protect herself.

However, she miscalculated this time.

Liu Wentian had simply ignored her previous words and barged in, moreover, he had a way to deal with her Gu Insects!

At that moment, Long Yuanyang, with a pale ghastly purple face and fine beads of sweat on her forehead, appeared extremely weak. She was clenching her teeth as if enduring unimaginable pain, apparently unable to even speak.

Seeing Liu Wentian enter, she was stunned for a moment, then realized she had been careless.

Since the opponent knew so much about her constitution, he naturally understood that this was when she was most vulnerable.

Moreover, she had not expected that he had a way to restrain her Gu Insects.

In her view, Liu Wentian undoubtedly came to kill her at this time!

A trace of madness appeared in Long Yuanyang’s indifferent, cold eyes. She was about to open her mouth and forcefully command the restless Lifebound Gu inside her to attack Liu Wentian!

Liu Wentian saw in an instant that this woman was playing for keeps!!

“Hey, hey, hey, why are you so impatient, woman? Are you having your period? I am here to help you!” Liu Wentian hurriedly said.

The liquid he had applied was effective against other Gu Insects, but it was certainly not enough for Long Yuanyang’s Lifebound Gu!

Hearing Liu Wentian’s words, Long Yuanyang still looked defensive, clearly not believing him, but she didn’t immediately command her Lifebound Gu to attack him.

During such times, when the Lifebound Gu was restless, forcibly ordering it to attack would cause great damage to her body!

Moreover, under such circumstances, the strength of the Lifebound Gu would also diminish a lot.

If her Lifebound Gu was killed, then she as the host wouldn’t live much longer.

Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, she would never use her Lifebound Gu, especially not during such times!

Liu Wentian looked at Long Yuanyang, who was expressionless with eyes emitting a cold glint, and couldn’t help but inwardly exclaim that this woman was truly twisted.
