The Journey of Immortal Cultivation Chapter 238 - 150 Echo Worm2

So, to put it simply, this little thing is a listening device sound amplifier of this world, and it can move around freely and is hard to detect! It’s simply the best espionage agent.

In contrast, the sa is true for this man himself. In many situations, both cultivators and demons cannot see mortals. But mortals are the largest population group in this world; they are as inconsequential as grass and ants, spilling invisibly upon the earth, aren’t they also invisible spies?

This man’s identity is that of an "Insect Servant." His task is to nourish this echo worm with his own essence, and then, at the right ti, release it to gather all kinds of gossip and information. Miluo has sohow managed to breed the echo worms on a large scale, and it is unknown how many "Insect Servants" he has planted as his informants across this vast land.

These "Insect Servants" are absolutely loyal to him. In addition to their families receiving care from the Fengtian Prefecture, Miluo also distributes "Insect Pills" every two months. These pills are specially formulated Qi Refilling dicines, the ingredients of which provide ample energy for the echo worm, preventing it from completely consuming its host.

If an "Insect Servant" dares to have second thoughts, Miluo would stop the supply of Insect Pills, leading to the depletion of the servant’s essence and death. Thus, since he successfully secretly ford the echo worm detective army, there has not been a single case of betrayal.

He cleverly used the huge base of mortals and established a vast intelligence network using the echo worms.

This intelligence army serves him alone; even the Fengtian Prefecture is unaware of its existence. Every three days, a special person deals with innurable pieces of information, which may be trivial or earth-shattering, and then sifts through and organizes it to be passed on to him.

This is his little secret.

The echo worm in front of him, today, apparently moved towards Da Zi under the man’s subtle direction and heard every word of the two won’s conversation without missing anything.

Now, it could also reproduce the conversation verbatim, in the voices and tones of the people involved.

After quietly listening to the conversation between Da Zi and Ning Xiaoxian, Miluo did not change his posture, but hooked up a thrilling smile at the corner of his mouth. Seeing his reaction, the man hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to look any longer.

"Good, very good," Miluo smiled, "She’s really getting bolder." His voice was smooth, yet it carried a faint trace of killing aura so intense that even the wind brushing past him paused for a mont.

"How did Li ngxue take you down?"

"My superior," the man’s face flushed slightly, "We were guarding in pairs, and I don’t know the situation with the other person, but the one who knocked down was not her!"

Miluo was intrigued: "Oh? If not her, then who? Could it be those two children?"

He said it offhandedly, yet the man actually nodded: "Indeed, it was those two children. I saw soone guarding her room enter it, and then she ca out and waved at ; I was on high alert already. I didn’t expect that after I walked in, the two children were playing around the table, and as I tried to avoid them, one of them grabbed my arm. I felt a pain in my hand, and suddenly I was overwheld with sleepiness and fell asleep right away. When I woke up, the three siblings were gone!"

Miluo was silent for a while before saying: "Show your wound."

The man did as told and rolled up his sleeve. In the moonlight, the wound was almost too fine to see. But Miluo’s eyesight was so good that he could clearly see a hair-fine micro wound on the man’s arm, from which not even blood had flowed out.

He reached out his hand too. His slender fingers grew longer, and nails beca sharp and pointed. He gently pricked the man’s arm with his claw, and yet the latter did not even frown.

Miluo retracted his claw and sniffed it close to his nose, his eyebrows slightly raised: "Interesting! These children are not human!" There were still remnants of the toxin in the man’s blood, and Miluo could sll the poison’s scent from it.

The man exclaid in surprise: "Those twins are demons? But they clearly passed the Demon Mirror this afternoon, and the mirror showed no reaction!"

Miluo shook his head: "I walked with them the whole way, and I didn’t notice anything; how could such an inferior Demon Mirror reveal their True Bodies?"

"It’s surprising that at such a young age, their cultivation is so deep!"

"You’re mistaken; this has nothing to do with cultivation," Miluo, losing interest, waved his hand dismissively. The man knew Miluo had lost interest in this conversation and quickly bowed and quietly left.

Miluo sat on the big stone, stroked his chin, and a cold light twinkled in his eyes. If these children hadn’t left a wound on his subordinate, he would still be in the dark! More than two years ago, when he led an attack on Ming Xiao City, he learned from intelligence reports about a very secretive demon species called the Fu Bat. The demons of this species, during their childhood, not only looked almost identical to humans but also could prevent any leakage of their demonic power. It was a very peculiar and useful innate talent.

Moreover, the tips of the claws of this kind of Bat Demon are dipped with a sleeping poison, which can quickly incapacitate prey in a short ti. This characteristic also closely matches the effects of the toxin on the man’s arm.

What’s most important is that according to her age, Li ngxue cannot be an underage Fu Bat but is a pure mortal. In that case, she and the two little bat demons cannot be biological siblings. The dignity of demons is a noble call inscribed in their blood, and even youthful Fu Bats wouldn’t bow down and obey an ordinary human (He still doesn’t know about the existence of oddities like the Cat Demon Ahua).

Therefore, she must also possess so secrets and is not as harmless as she appears to be on the surface. The character traits of such a person are very similar to soone he is currently investigating — Ning Xiaoxian! (To be continued.
