“Grandma…”

Hearing Xiao Qingyue say that Grandma was probably dead long ago, Jiu Ji broke down. She looked helplessly at Grandma, who was frozen in place, and shouted.

Chen An was afraid that Jiu Ji could not take it anymore, so he could only cast an enhanced ‘Sleepy Time Spell’ on her and make her fall asleep.

“Send her to my room to sleep first.”

Chen An said to Xiao Qingyue.

Xiao Qingyue did not say anything else. She directly used the teleportation array to send Jiu Ji over and teleported back alone.

“Husband, how should we deal with this?”

This was the first time Xiao Qingyue had encountered such a troublesome matter. For a moment, she did not know what to do.

In the past, she had mostly sat in the Sect Master’s position to oversee the overall situation. She had never experienced such a scene of family parting.

Chen An thought for a moment and said, “Let’s take out the worm from Grandma’s face first. Then, we’ll use an ice technique to freeze Grandma’s corpse and see if there’s any way to revive her in the future.”

“Ok, got it”

Xiao Qingyue nodded and stopped in front of Jiu Huayu.

She condensed a small and sharp ice blade in her hand and carefully cut the lump on Jiu Huayu’s face. She took out the worm that was frozen and unable to move.

“Hmm?”

Seeing the worm in her hand, she was stunned for a moment before saying happily, “Husband, the worm in Grandma’s body doesn’t seem to be a Corpse Worm!”

“It’s not Corpse Worm?!”

When Chen An heard this news, he immediately perked up.

Xiao Qingyue pinched the worm and explained to him,

“The Corpse Worm’s body usually looks like human skin, and there will be many worm-like strips of flesh on it.”

“As for the worm in my hand, its body is extremely hard. There is no flesh on it. It’s completely different from the Corpse Worm I’ve seen before.”

“Most importantly, this worm has very few teeth in its mouth. It only has a few sharp teeth. This is not the same as the characteristics of the Corpse Worm.”

“Then what worm is this?”

Chen An was also sizing up the worm in Xiao Qingyue’s hand and asked her this question.

Xiao Qingyue shook her head and said, “I don’t know either. This is also the first time I’ve seen such a type.”

After Chen An heard this, he stopped paying attention to the worm and immediately spread out his divine consciousness to sense the condition of Jiu Huayu’s body.

Her physical body’s vitality was very weak, but there was still a trace of vitality.

As for her soul, it was very healthy and did not suffer any damage.

This was a living creature!

She was not dead!

It was a false alarm!

That was true. If Jiu Huayu really died, as a Void Refinement Stage Cultivator, it was impossible for him not to sense it.

‘It was Jiu Ji who influenced me and caused me to misjudge.’

‘In the end, I’m still too young. I’m not even 50 years old. Moreover, I’ve spent most of my life refining pills. 1 lack communication with others and can’t calm down to think about problems.’

Thinking of this, Chen An’s face was full of smiles.

“Husband, how’s Grandma?”

Xiao Qingyue’s divine consciousness was not as strong as Chen An’s, so it was difficult for her to sense the weak vitality in Jiu Huayu’s body.

Chen An replied, “Grandma is still alive.”

‘She’s still alive? But why can’t I sense any vitality in her body…’ Xiao Qingyue couldn’t understand and asked again, “Husband, but I can’t sense any vitality in Grandma’s body.”

“Of course you can’t sense it, because the vitality in Grandma’s body is almost gone. There’s only an extremely weak trace left,” Chen An explained.

With that, he took out a Myriad Existence Pill and stuffed it into Jiu Huayu’s mouth to replenish the vitality that had been lost in her body.

In just a moment, Jiu Huayu, who had a lifeless expression, woke up. Her empty eyes slowly regained their previous life. Even the knife mark on her face had healed as well.

“What’s wrong with me…”

Jiu Huayu looked at Chen An and Xiao Qingyue in confusion, not understanding what had happened.

Chen An took the worm from Xiao Qingyue and placed it in front of Jiu Huayu. He asked, “Grandma, do you recognize this worm?”

Jiu Huayu glanced at the worm and asked curiously, “This is a worm raised by Hu Qiniang’s son-in-law in the village. Is there anything strange about this worm?”

“Did the people in the village raise this worm?” Chen An was very surprised.

Jiu Huayu explained, “Hu Qi’s son-in-law likes to raise insects. He has raised over ten different types of insects like the one in your hand.”

‘More than ten?”

‘That son-in-law was a Poison Cultivator?’

‘Was it someone from Yin Sect?’

‘Or was it someone from the Yin Domain?’

The people from Yin Sect did not have the ability to control Jiu Ji’s grandmother. That son-in-law was most likely from Yin Domain…

In the blink of an eye, Chen An thought of many things.

He said to Jiu Huayu, “Grandma, the worm in my hand is a poisonous worm. It was just taken out of your body. You’ve been parasitized by this worm.”

“This worm is a legendary Poisonous Worm?!” Jiu Huayu’s face was filled with disbelief.

She calmed herself down and confirmed, “Grandson-in-law, is this true? You’re not joking with Grandma?”

“Grandma, I’m not joking. When you were still parasitized by this worm just now, you were like a walking corpse. You looked lifeless and had no vitality to speak of.”

After saying that, Chen An said, “Little Jiu just found out that you were poisoned. She thought that it was corpse poison and broke down. Now, I’ve forced her into a sleep state with a technique and she’s resting in my room.”

Jiu Huayu was not in the mood to pay attention to her granddaughter, Jiu Ji. Instead, she asked curiously, “Why did Hu Qi’s son-in-law raise so many worms?”

“Perhaps he’s from the Yin Domain,” Chen An guessed.

“Yin Domain?”

Jiu Huayu was as ignorant as him.

This was because as the village chief, she had lived in the Fox Village all her life and had never stepped out of it.

The reason why she could give birth to Jiu Ji’s mother back then was because she had slept with a male Cultivator who had accidentally traveled to the Fox Village. He had experienced a one-night stand like a guest, and in the end, she was pregnant.

She wanted that male Cultivator to stay on, but that male Cultivator was unwilling.

The male Cultivator wanted to take her away, but she was unwilling.

“Grandma, the Yin Domain is the most powerful faction in this area. There are many Yin Cultivators who nurture worms inside.”

Seeing Jiu Huayu’s confused expression, Xiao Qingyue explained.

When Jiu Huayu heard this, she frowned slightly. She could not be bothered to visit Jiu Ji. She directly used the teleportation array to go to Hu Qi’s family to find that son-in-law.

Chen An and Xiao Qingyue looked at each other and followed suit.

They arrived at Hu Qiniang’s house in the village.

Jiu Huayu knocked on the door and said, “Hu Qi, come out and open the door. I have something urgent to tell you!”

The room was dead silent.

There was no response.

Jiu Huayu frowned and turned to look at Chen An behind her. “Grandson-in-law, can you sense the situation in the room?”

Chen An shook his head and said, “Grandma, there might be a treasure-level divine consciousness shield in the house. My divine consciousness can’t extend in.”

At this moment, the door of the house opened with a creak..
