"Actually, he’s not ugly without that scar, right?"

"No, even with a scar, he just looks more courageous. When I look for a man in the future, I want one like this!"

The scar that she once thought was ugly now seemed far less frightening in hindsight.

Even the fear she previously had for Chen Nan had vanished, because she discovered that Chen Nan is actually a man with a warm heart.

Although he killed two Wang Family Cultivators, those Wang Family Cultivators must have deserved it.

"He’s so strong and has the King Gu, wouldn’t it be nice if he could stay..."

A Yin stared at the mask, momentarily entranced.

"Have you seen enough?"

The sudden voice nearly made A Yin jump.

"You... when did you wake up?"

"Since you came in." Chen Nan said blandly.

"Then why didn’t you say anything?" A Yin was immensely embarrassed, covering her face with her hand.

Chen Nan shook his head speechlessly, "I thought you’d leave soon."

"Do you really not want to see me?" A Yin suddenly asked sadly.

Chen Nan was baffled, what kind of logic was this?

Seeing someone cultivating and not disturbing them is basic courtesy, right?

What does that have to do with wanting to see her or not?

Indeed, a woman’s heart is like a needle in the sea.

"Of course not," Chen Nan shook his head helplessly, knowing that reasoning with a woman was futile, "So, what brings you here to see me?"

A Yin thought for a moment and said, "Just to chat."

"Are you really going to leave here?"

She asked the question she was most worried about.

"Yes." Chen Nan answered without hesitation.

Heartless man!

A Yin pouted, "Can’t you stay?"

"Of course not, I have many things to do." Chen Nan felt somewhat perplexed.

A Yin’s face fell immediately, "Alright, I know, you should rest, I won’t disturb you anymore!"

Her tone was unfriendly, leaving Chen Nan even more bewildered.

Which part did he say wrong?

Seeing A Yin about to leave, Chen Nan still stopped her.

"By the way, there’s something I want to tell you."

"What is it?" A Yin turned sideways, arms crossed, and asked.

"About the King Gu."

Upon hearing this, A Yin finally turned serious and sat opposite Chen Nan.

Although he was surely leaving, Chen Nan felt it was better to remind A Yin about some things.

"When investigating the patient earlier, the little snake detected an aura, a very powerful aura, not weaker than the little snake’s presence."

A Yin thought for a moment and said in shock, "Is it the Nine Tribulation Celestial Silkworm?"

"At first, I wasn’t sure." Chen Nan continued, "It wasn’t until you used the power of the Nine Tribulation Celestial Silkworm to drive away the Immortal Epidemic that I was certain."

"Because the aura that descended on you then was identical to the aura of the Immortal Epidemic!"

After hearing this news, A Yin was completely stunned. The information contained was too much, leaving her unable to comprehend it all at once.

"The aura of the Immortal Epidemic is the same as the Nine Tribulation Celestial Silkworm, could the Immortal Epidemic be the toxin released by the Nine Tribulation Celestial Silkworm? How is that possible?!"

She tried desperately to deny this possibility, but seeing Chen Nan’s serious expression, she knew he wasn’t joking.

The Guardian God of the Heavenly Border, the faith of the Heavenly Border, turns out to be the source of their fear and hatred—the Immortal Epidemic?

"What in the world is going on?"

Even though she had begun to believe in the little snake, the years of prior faith made it impossible for her to accept this reality.

Chen Nan shook his head, feeling that this matter was filled with mysteries as well.

As an outsider, he could see nothing clearly.

"I’m telling you this just to keep you alert, as for what the truth is, it has nothing to do with me."

"Understood."

A Yin left with a lost spirit, looking extremely disappointed.

Chen Nan shook his head, indifferent to the Heavenly Border affairs, caring only about recovering quickly.

Also, Crescent Spring at Moon Tower Dong Village, if there’s time he must check it out, not knowing if it will have any effect on him.

Taking out the Blood Gourd, he poured out a Demon Spirit Pill and swallowed it, Chen Nan began cultivating the "Heavenly Fox Form," while the Power of Laws within him was gradually depleted.

...

The people of Moon Tower Dong Village received the blessings of the new King Gu, and all the villagers regained their vitality.

Just as they were celebrating, a group of uninvited guests arrived in their village.

"Hu Luo, what are you here for? Our village doesn’t welcome you!"

A Bai glared at a dark-skinned man, shouting fiercely.

To Hu Bai, from the neighboring Huotang Village, there was no goodwill whatsoever.

Recently, Huotang Village often provoked their village, becoming increasingly overbearing.

"Hehe, A Bai, that’s not for you to decide." Hu Luo sneered coldly, "Where is your Priestess A Yin?"

"I heard she died outside, what a pity. Without a Priestess, how long can your Moon Tower Dong Village survive? You might as well join Huotang Village directly."

"Hu Luo, what nonsense are you talking!"

A Bai was instantly incensed, not only cursing their Priestess but also trying to subjugate their village?

"A Bai, don’t hold on stubbornly, you know without a Priestess, there’s no protection from the King Gu; it won’t be long before demon beasts destroy you. Better to join Huotang Village earlier..."

Mid-sentence, he suddenly seemed choked, unable to speak another word, pointing towards the back of A Bai and others, with an expression as if he had seen a ghost.

"A Yin?! Aren’t you dead?"

At this time, A Yin was in a foul mood. Looking up, she saw Hu Luo, and instantly thought of the tragic deaths of Uncle Fu and others, a surge of anger filled her heart.

Huotang Village, just next to Moon Tower Dong Village, was a village adept in Beast Taming. When the Elder and Holy Daughter were present, the two villages coexisted peacefully.

But now, they’ve become mortal enemies!

A Yin originally planned to reveal the truth to the other villagers later, but now that Hu Luo and others came looking for trouble, she couldn’t hold back anymore.

"Are you surprised I’m not dead?"

Hu Luo looked incredulous: "Impossible, you couldn’t have survived..."

"So it really was you!" A Yin gritted her teeth, clenched her fists.

The people of Moon Tower Dong Village were confused, hastening to inquire.

"A Yin, what exactly happened? Why does he say you’re dead?"

A Yin sighed deeply and then told everything that had happened.

When they heard that Uncle Fu and others were killed by people from Huotang Village, they couldn’t hold back anymore, and several Gu Masters immediately stepped up, glaring at Hu Luo’s group.

"Sigh!" Hu Luo shook his head, "I thought that if we got rid of you, Moon Tower Dong Village would have no Priestess, and could only join Huotang Village, but it’s a shame, you’re forcing me."

He looked up, displaying a sinister smile.

"There’s no other way left, but to kill all of you!"
