"Worm King?" Mo Haoning's brows furrowed.

"Legend has it that among the mountains and mountains in the southwest, there are countless poisonous insects, and these poisonous insects only obey the orders of one person, and this person is the king of insects." Qiao Xiya's voice trembled a little.

"You mean my second brother, they met the Worm King?" Mo Haoning looked at the dense pits on these white bones, and couldn't help but stand on end with sweat all over his body, "But why did the Worm King attack the second brother?"

"Sacrifice, perhaps." Qiao Xiya's eyes were full of fear, "Sacrifice, the Worm King will fulfill his wish."

"Who is it?" Mo Haoning crushed a white bone, and Zhou's body was instantly surrounded by killing intent, "Who is going to attack the second brother!"

"Then find out who killed these people."

"You said these people were bitten by bugs." Mo Haoning asked.

"The Worm King only needs the left hand of a living man." Qiao Xiya paused, "Only by sacrificing enough left hands of nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine living people can we awaken the Worm King and make a deal with it. Those missing toes are the price paid for this deal. And these people will be rewarded by the Worm King to the bugs who are about to complete the transaction. Moreover, once the transaction is started, it cannot be stopped. Unless......" Qiao Xiya wanted to speak and stopped.

"Unless what?" Mo Haoning urged anxiously.

"Unless you sacrifice it, wake up the Worm King, and trade again." Qiao Xiya's words made Mo Haoning stunned, waking up, trading, it means sacrificing nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine living people. It's not something he can do.

"Is there any other way?" Mo Haoning was silent for a long time and asked.

"Yes." Qiao Xiya raised her head, a pair of apricot eyes directly met Mo Haoning's eyes, and said word by word, "Find the Worm King's Palace, and beat the Worm King to surrender."

"Worm King Palace......" Mo Haoning gritted his teeth with red eyes, "You know what to do to find the Worm King Palace, right?"

Qiao Xiya nodded, and shook her head again: "I've only seen it in a book that records exotic anecdotes, as for whether it will work or not, I don't know."

"Then give it a try." Mo Haoning gritted his teeth and said.

"I remember that it was recorded in the ancient books that the sacrificial ground was the open space in front of the Worm King's Palace, and now we should be in front of us as the Sacrifice Ground, but where the Worm King's Hall is facing, we can only try."

"How?" As soon as Mo Haoning heard that the Insect King Hall was nearby, he immediately came to his senses.

"The palms, eyes, hearts, and blood of nine living people lure out the Worm King's envoy, and then follow this messenger to find the Worm King's Palace."

Mo Haoning was silent again. This method is not difficult to say, it is simple, but it also requires the lives of nine people.

"Why don't you go back to the camp first and discuss it with Your Second Highness?" Seeing that Mo Haoning was really embarrassed, Qiao Xiya suggested going back to the barracks first and then discussing.

Mo Haoning nodded and reluctantly agreed, the matter has come to this point, no matter what, he has to go back and give Mo Changhong an explanation, whether it is what they have discovered so far or whether he alone dares to make a decision, he urgently needs to discuss with Mo Changhong.

"Girl, lord! You're back!" Xia He saw Qiao Xiya, who was covered in dirt and ragged clothes, and her eyes turned red all of a sudden.

God knows how hard they struggled to climb out of that pit. Qiao Xiya almost thought that she would never be able to get out in this life.

"Master, are you alright?" Chu Yun greeted him, patted the dust on Mo Haoning's body, and greeted.

"It's good. The task you've been given is done?" Mo Haoning tried his best to make his tone sound relaxed.

"When have I smashed my grandfather's office, you can rest assured!" Chu Yun smiled and led the horse to the side, "Master, are we going back now, or do we continue to walk inside?"

"Go back." After that, Mo Haoning first helped Qiao Xiya get on the horse, and then turned over on the horse himself.

The four of them wandered back to the fire-burned ditch.

"Stop!" There was a shout from the other side of the ditch, and then a soldier stood on the edge of the ditch with a bow and crossbow, aiming at the four masters and servants.

"Presumptuous! Prince Hao is here, and you are so unreasonable!" Chu Yun was gloomy, and his face turned back.

"Prince Hao?" The other party was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "Prince Hao, didn't you come back a long time ago?" When did you go to the other side again? The little one has been staying here, why didn't the little one see you coming?"

The soldier's words made Qiao Xiya's face pale, she suppressed her fear, frowned, and asked in a loud voice, "When did you see us go back?"

"The girl said this strangely," the soldier laughed, "the girl and the prince both came back an hour ago, why did the girl come to ask me?" With that, he quietly tightened the bow and crossbow in his hand. The current situation made no one dare to offend, and at the same time, he did not dare to relax in the slightest.

The soldier's words let Mo Haoning and Qiao Xiya know that there were bugs pretending to be them and infiltrating the barracks. But Qiao Xiya didn't understand a little, these insects, who took great pains and tried all their best to infiltrate the barracks and replace other soldiers, why, what kind of deal did the sacrificial person make with the insect king?

"Please bring Prince Hao and others to confront us." Mo Haoning did not show anger in the face of the vigilance of the soldiers.

The soldiers on the other side of the ditch hesitated, but finally waved their hands, and the soldiers on the side retreated backwards towards the largest tent in the middle of the barracks.

After a while, I saw Mo Changhong followed by four one-person-tall Stygian Flower Thousand-legged Worms to the side of the ditch.

Looking at Mo Haoning, Qiao Xiya and others on the other side, Mo Changhong's face became extremely ugly, he turned his head and looked at the four insects behind him, looked at the other side with a suspicious expression, and said in a deep voice, "Who are you?"

"Second brother, it's me! Seventh!" Mo Haoning was a little anxious, couldn't Mo Changhong see that there were four insects behind him?

"Joke, you're the seventh, so who is this?" Mo Changhong pulled a bug behind him to his side.

The two slender whiskers of the insect shook a few times, and then the thin long legs on both sides of the body slid regularly: "Second brother, you really have a lot of insects here. There are some who look exactly like me."

"Second brother!" Mo Haoning shouted, interrupting the worm's words, "Do you want to go to the Imperial Grandmother's Hundred Treasure Pavilion to steal cloud cakes again?"

Mo Changhong was obviously stunned when he heard this, he quietly hooked the back of his hand behind his back, and said with a sneer: "I'm afraid that the imperial grandmother will never let the two of us enter her Hundred Treasure Pavilion casually!"

As the words landed, Mo Changhong's side Youping and Deputy General Tian Hanfei, as well as Su Huaizuo, and Qiao San had already crept behind the insect. The four people glanced at each other, as the hand behind Mo Changhong changed from palm to fist, the four sharp blades were cut down together, and the four insects were split in half vertically, even if the soldiers on the side were stupid, they knew what to do, and the fire oil was poured on the ground in an instant, and another soldier on the side threw the torch up, and the fire rose instantly, more than three feet.

"Welcome Prince Hao back to the camp!" Mo Changhong quietly breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and ordered the soldiers to build a pontoon bridge to take Mo Haoning and the others back to the barracks.
