Chapter 577: Chapter 429: The Bug Crawled In
Borjigin Nian spoke, a look of confusion flashing across her face as she glanced towards Tan Nv, whose complexion was as pale as blood.
“It’s almost ti! It’s almost ti!” A trace of blood-red appeared suddenly in the chaotic eyes of Tan Nv as she anxiously spoke in the unique accent of the Foreign Tribe,
Upon hearing this, Borjigin Nian was startled, and his hand, which was wiping the blood from Gu Changsheng’s face, paused. “What’s almost ti?”
“Amitabha! Such is fate! Such is fate! Benefactor Tan Nv, this is the tribulation of your life. I hope you consider it clearly!” The Little Monk Bu Jie, seeing this, spoke again.
“You said it yourself, it’s fate! My mission since birth has been just this, and I also promised her father that I would find her!” Upon hearing this, Tan Nv turned her head, her chaotic and bloody eyes gazing at the Little Monk Bu Jie as she slowly began, “When she awakens, I will fall into an eternal slumber! Shang Xie, in this world, only she can awaken . Tell her, not to go against the heavens, rely waiting for the right ti will suffice!”
The Little Monk Bu Jie, upon hearing this, a look of compassion flickered through his benevolent eyes, and he finally nodded slowly.
“Hey! We can hardly hold them off any longer, and they are about to make their move! What exactly are you two plotting?” Borjigin Nian, overwheld, looked at the two and shouted angrily, “What father? Wasn’t Gu Changsheng’s father dead long ago?”
Yue Xilou’s expression changed as well, but he ultimately remained silent.
Obviously, the two also didn’t have ti to answer her, for even the eloquent Wang Qianjin was showing signs of being unable to stall any longer!
And the armies of the Three Kingdoms besieging them hadn’t relaxed their efforts at all!
Now, it was truly a matter of life and death!
“You all heard it, The World’s Number One Money House, the Princess of Northern Mongolia, who are these extraordinary people around Gu Changsheng? If this continues, who in the world can do anything to her? If she and Zhou Mu are together, Zhou Mu will certainly be strengthened and stabilize his position as the supre ruler. When that happens, will there still be a place for our Three Kingdoms in this vast world?” Jin Linyuan spoke solemnly, pointing at Gu Changsheng, his voice deepening, “It’s too late to pull back now. Don’t forget, our troops stationed outside the city have already rushed to Baili Mountain. By now, Gu Changsheng’s son has likely died without a place for his body. Do you think you have any way out?”
Upon hearing this, Borjigin Lvchi and Sima Changhao’s faces changed imdiately.
“She moved! I felt her hand move!” In the center surrounded by the army, Borjigin Nian suddenly exclaid joyfully.
Gu Changsheng seed to be trapped in purgatory, enduring unbearable tornt, wishing for death!
However, in a trance, she seed to hear soone ntion her son!
They wanted her son dead without a place to bury him!
That cannot happen!
In that instant, Gu Changsheng forgot the heart-wrenching pain throughout her body and struggled to escape!
She had to save her son! Save her little treasure!
He was so adorable, so understanding! He must not suffer even the slightest injury!
“It’s moving…moving again…ah!”
Just then, Borjigin Nian suddenly shrieked, hurriedly withdrawing her hand and falling back, pointing at Gu Changsheng’s forehead in disbelief, trembling as she spoke, “There…there’s an insect!”
Heavens! She had just felt the sensation of an insect wriggling beneath her hand!
That cold, chilling sensation!
“Finally…about to awaken…” Tan Nv glanced at Gu Changsheng, murmured dreamily, and slowly lifted her hand towards Gu Changsheng’s forehead…
“Hey! What are you doing! There’s an insect there!” Borjigin Nian saw Tan Nv’s actions, shouting out in alarm.
Right there!
Just then, she was wiping the blood off Gu Changsheng, cleaning that very spot!
There, she had felt the sensation of an insect moving!
“Shut up!” Yue Xilou grabbed Borjigin Nian sternly and scolded, his eyes fixed unwaveringly on Tan Nv’s actions.
“Attack!”
Suddenly, from ahead ca a cold shout from Jin Linyuan. In the next instant, the Dead Soldiers of the Bright Moon Tower engaged in battle with the Great Army of the Three Kingdoms!
This ti, it was indeed the Great Army of the Three Kingdoms!
Even Sima Changhao, who had yet to make a move until then, had ordered his troops to proceed!
Even Borjigin Lvchi, who commanded Borjigin Nian, had ordered his troops to proceed!
Jin Linyuan was right, they could not afford to be delayed by this stalling tactic!
They had to fight quickly to complete their mission and escape as fast as possible!
Suddenly, shouts and the sounds of battle echoed around, the sll of blood pervading the air, while in the very center, a few rested around Gu Changsheng, never taking their eyes off her, daring not to stray an inch!
Tan Nv’s movents were slow, as if she were touching a rare treasure, gently wiping the blood from Gu Changsheng’s forehead clean…
As the blood was wiped away, only a blood-red forehead ornant remained, red as though dripping with blood and still shimring with flowing light…
Upon seeing this forehead ornant, everyone was stunned into silence!
Because, they saw a slowly drifting insect in the middle of the Forehead Ornant!
Yes!
It was an insect!
Its entire body was blood-red, and it even emitted a phosphorescent glow!
And Tan Nv, looking at the Forehead Ornant, had a face filled with boundless devotion, absentmindedly murmuring, “A thousand years… You’ve been asleep for a thousand years… You’ve finally awakened… I thought I might not see your awakening in this life…”
“So… the person you chose is her, isn’t it?”
Tan Nv said this while slowly extending a finger towards the Forehead Ornant…
“Amitabha! How virtuous! How virtuous!” Little Monk Bu Jie suddenly spoke up solemnly, “Benefactor Tan Nv, do you really want to awaken it? If it cos into the world, then you will fall into an eternal slumber. To my knowledge, Benefactor Changsheng has no such ambition… In this life, she might not have the chance to awaken you again…”
“Shang Xie, you who oversees fate and peers into past and present lives, should know that I have reincarnated through several lives as the Chaotic Great Witch, all to await the ti it chooses to awaken! This is the aning of my existence! Whether I can awaken again is no longer important…” Tan Nv’s lips curved into a smile that seed to relieve a burden as she slowly spoke, “Besides, it has already chosen Gu Changsheng as its Feeder. If I do not awaken it now, Gu Changsheng too will fall into an eternal slumber. How could I explain that to her father?”
“My mind is made up, there is no need for further persuasion!” Tan Nv coldly interrupted Little Monk Bu Jie’s unspoken words, slowly turning towards Gu Changsheng, and solemnly said, “Welco to awakening, I am now going to help you awake…”
The next mont, a low chant in a foreign tribal tongue filled the air.
“… Born to command, from birth destined to be a king, with my divine soul of the Chaotic Great Witch as the guide, awake to the path of a ruler…”
The sounds of fighting and killing all around drowned out this delicate chant, guarded within a circle of Dead Soldiers…
“Tower Master!” The next instant, a black-clad Dead Soldier fell, his eyes filled with guilt as he looked towards Yue Xilou in the center, blood streaming from his mouth, his gaze gradually scattering, “I am no longer able to serve you, Tower Master…”
Seeing one of his n fall, a blood-red gleam of murder flashed across Yue Xilou’s face, “I will hold them off, you hurry!”
The next mont, Yue Xilou’s colorful brocaded clothes fluttered, guarding around Gu Changsheng!
Although Ning Er Kun Nu was also worried about Gu Changsheng, he steeled his heart and turned to fight the approaching army.
“Amitabha! Futu brings slaughter! Futu brings slaughter!…” Little Monk Bu Jie sat cross-legged next to Gu Changsheng, softly chanting the Sutra of Rebirth…
“Tan Nv! Tan Nv what on earth are you doing! We are running out of ti!” Borjigin Nian, anxious, looked at the black-clad Dead Soldiers continuously falling, then turned towards Tan Nv who was still chanting.
This glance was casual, but she was surprised to see Tan Nv’s chaotic eyes gradually gaining clarity!
Borjigin Nian was imdiately stunned and quickly turned towards Gu Changsheng lying in their midst!
“Insect! Insect! It’s burrowing… burrowing in…”
Borjigin Nian’s fingers trembled as she pointed at the Forehead Ornant, watching it flash red, break out of its shell, and wriggle upward, burrowing towards the spot between Gu Changsheng’s eyebrows…
At this mont, seeing that drop of fresh blood flow out, Borjigin Nian was truly terrified!
Insect!
An insect burrowing into the forehead!
Moreover!
Before she knew it, the insect had quickly burrowed in, not even giving her a chance to stop it!
And that drop of fresh blood gradually disappeared…
In an instant, all that remained on Gu Changsheng’s forehead was a fingernail-sized red mark, blazing like fire, as if bleeding…
“Gu Changsheng! Gu Changsheng! Insect! Where did you go, insect! Co out! Co out!” Borjigin Nian cried out in panic, frantically swiping at Gu Changsheng’s forehead!
But no matter how hard she tried, that red mark remained, but the insect was nowhere to be seen!
“Heavens! Yue Xilou! Yue Xilou save us! The insect has burrowed into Gu Changsheng’s body!” Borjigin Nian frantically called for help, glaring furiously at Tan Nv, screaming heartrendingly, “What are you doing? Weren’t you saving her? How co your own eyes are back to normal, yet you let that creepy insect harm Gu Changsheng!”
Thinking of that blood-red, phosphorescent insect, Borjigin Nian was filled with dread.
Such a creepy insect had burrowed into Gu Changsheng’s forehead; could she still be alive?
Hearing this, Yue Xilou, thrown into confusion, swatted away several enemies attacking from the front and turned back to look at Gu Changsheng, whose forehead was marked with a cinnabar spot, shouting in shock, “Girl!”
Witch gu! Always mysterious and unfathomable!
Tan Nv is a witch of Bashu, she had spoken a bunch of seemingly nonsensical words to Little Monk Bu Jie, Pierre had no idea what she really intended to do!
With the situation as it was, even Yue Xilou was getting scared!
“Gu Changsheng! Gu Changsheng!” Tears filled Borjigin Nian’s deep eyes as she looked at the still unconscious Gu Changsheng, crying out in anxiety, glaring at Tan Nv who continued her relentless chanting, angrily said, “Tan Nv! If sothing happens to Gu Changsheng, I’ll be the first to tear you to pieces!”
“Bang!”
The next mont, as the eerie foreign chant stopped, Tan Nv collapsed onto Gu Changsheng, her body stiff as if her soul had fled…
