Chapter 161: Bugs and Mimics

"Your Highness!" Uncle trembled and knelt down and pleaded, "Your Highness is angry, if Your Highness kills at this time, I'm afraid you will never see His Highness the Insect King again!"

Uncle Scorpion's words made the woman burst into tears instantly: "The Worm King, the Worm King is dead! Even if I don't kill them, I'll never see them again......" With that, the woman raised her arms, and the fog, which had been gradually thinning, became thick again, and as the fog thickened, the rustling sound in everyone's ears became more and more obvious, and everyone couldn't help but feel numb and trembling all over.

"The Worm King is alive!" Uncle hurriedly shouted.

"What?" The woman was stunned, and her tearful eyes looked at Uncle Scorpio in disbelief, "What did you say?"

"The old man tried to contact the Worm King early this morning, and got a response, although the response was weak, but the Worm King is indeed alive!" After a pause, he continued, "The old man wanted to tell His Royal Highness as soon as possible, but the palace people of His Royal Highness said that His Royal Highness came to the altar in anger, so he hurried here."

"It takes a lot of physical strength to contact the insect king, and your injuries are not yet healed, so why are you bothered!" Hearing that the insect king was still alive, the anger around the woman obviously subsided, and was replaced by distress for Uncle Bug.

"In order to protect the clansmen, in order to protect His Royal Highness, even if the old man gives up his life, it is worth it." Seeing that the woman's mood gradually stabilized, Uncle Scorp also had a relieved smile on his face.

"If Your Highness can trust me, I can help him heal his wounds." Through the dialogue between the two, Qiao Xiya has already understood the matter, and the current injury may be a good opportunity.

"You?" The woman's slightly hostile gaze shot towards Qiao Xiya like a sharp sword, "What trust does the despicable race have!"

"You won't have to worry about the old wounds. Before you can regret it, you should leave quickly. Where did you come from, where do you go back? Otherwise, the old man wouldn't mind letting go of this old bone and leaving you all here." The insect head that the cockpuff was riding poked forward with murderous intent, hiding the woman behind her.

Seeing that the other party's vigilance was very strong, Qiao Xiya was not easy to force, she tried her best to restrain the fear of the huge insect head, and said to Uncle: "Since Uncle doesn't trust us, we should leave and never come to disturb us, but before leaving, the little girl has a reluctant request."

"You say." Seeing that Qiao Xi Yali had been thoughtful for a few weeks and spoke softly, Uncle Scorpion slowed down slightly.

"Please tell the little girl what the person who offered the sacrifice was like." Qiao Xiya saw that Uncle Scorpion agreed, and said her request in a deep way.

"What are you doing here?" Uncle Scorpion's face turned a little colder. The thought of the sacrificial man made the cockroach itch with hatred, and he longed to sleep on its skin and eat its flesh.

"Because he might have to commit a new massacre of my hometown. I'm going to find him and kill him."

Qiao Xiya's words made Uncle Scorpion stunned. He never expected that the woman in front of him, who looked even weaker than his own little highness, would be able to say such a thing. And he also saw the killing intent that lingered on Qiao Xiyazhou.

He glanced back at His Royal Highness, muttered for a moment, and said, "In this case, you go back to your camp first, and later, the old man will send you the portrait."

"Thank you." Qiao Xiya was deeply blessed, and then stretched out her hand to take a small piece of mermaid scales handed over by Mo Haoning, handed it to Uncle and said, "This is a mermaid scale, which can heal diseases and heal injuries, so it should be regarded as a thank you gift for the portrait."

Uncle Scorpion took the scales and looked at Qiao Xiya suspiciously. Qiao Xiya was stunned for a moment, then smiled, took out the dagger, and before everyone could react, she drew a bloody cut on her hand, and then took the scales in the hand of the cockle, and took a small bite, the wound on the palm of her hand healed quickly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and no scars were left.

Qiao Xiya returned the scales to Uncle Scorpion, then took a half step back, and said a shallow blessing to the woman and Uncle Scorpion: "Farewell."

~~

"Miss Joe...... Will they send the portrait?" Mo Changhong sat on his horse and asked softly.

"Yes." Qiao Xiya nodded, "That cockroach is a reasonable person, besides, I have already made things clear to him and given him healing scales, if he doesn't send a portrait, he won't be at ease."

"But the woman is a difficult one." Mo Changhong frowned.

"If one day Jin'an City is breached by gangsters, and blood flows inside and outside the palace, what will happen to His Second Highness?" Qiao Xiya's voice trembled a little.

"......" Mo Changhong turned around and looked at Qiao Xiya, unable to speak for a long time.

"Second brother, don't blame," Seeing that the atmosphere between the two was weird, Mo Haoning hurriedly spoke to ease it, "Xiya, she is straightforward and fast-talking......

"She's right." Mo Changhong interrupted Mo Haoning's words, sighed and said, "If one day Jin Ancheng is really washed in blood, I am afraid that I will be like that woman, full of anger and murderous intent."

"Let's go. Portraits of returning to the camp and waiting." Mo Changhong said, and urged the war horse under his crotch to go back.

"Lord Wang," Qiao Xiya called out to Mo Haoning, who was walking in front of her, a little worried.

"What's wrong?" Mo Haoning tightened the reins, slowed down, and looked at Qiao Xiya's tightly knit brows, Mo Haoning was a little worried, "Is it because you are not feeling well?"

Qiao Xiya shook her head and muttered, "I always feel that this matter is not so simple."

"Tell me about it." Seeing that Qiao Xiya didn't seem to be joking, Mo Haoning also became nervous.

"His Royal Highness said that the first person who died was bitten by a kind of worm, and that bug was also killed by his lieutenant General Tian Hanfei, and since then he has never mentioned the infestment of this kind of bug, but replaced it with an imitator."

"Yes," Mo Haoning nodded, if it weren't for Qiao Xiya's words, he would have almost forgotten this detail, but he didn't understand what Qiao Xiya wanted to prove with this, "But that bug is real."

"That's right, then do you say that it's possible that the biting bugs have nothing to do with the Worm King's people?" Qiao Xiya glanced at Mo Haoning tentatively.

"It's okay?" This is something Mo Haoning didn't expect, "You mean, the insect that bit people to death has nothing to do with the Worm King's clan? How is this possible? They're all bugs......

"It's the same person, and there is a loyal woman who does good and evil, why does the prince think that all the insects are related to the insect king?"

"But the Worm King is the one who rules all the insects in the Southwest......

"How did the prince know that General Tian killed a worm born in the southwest?"

"This ......" Mo Haoning didn't know what to say for a while, he admitted that he was indeed a little preconceived, but he still didn't quite understand what Qiao Xiya wanted to say.
