Chapter 77: Chapter 77: The Conflict between Black and White

Help me?

Hearing Ye Fei’s words, Fan Liya was momentarily stunned.

Help her? How?

The black-robed man before her was the most terrifying Gu Master of the Black Miao Clan, possessing unparalleled mastery of the Gu Poison Technique. Even the powerful Martial Artists couldn’t contend with him.

Ye Fei was just an ordinary college student; he wouldn’t be able to help her. Instead, he’d only get dragged into this dangerous situation.

Fan Liya had chosen to leave with the black-robed man precisely because she didn’t want any innocent people involved. She immediately said, "Leave now! You can’t help me!"

"How do you know I can’t help you if you don’t give me a chance?" Ye Fei smiled faintly.

"I said you can’t help, and you simply can’t! I know my own situation best. Just go!"

As she spoke, Fan Liya gave Ye Fei a hurried shove, trying to shield him from the black-robed man to prevent any innocent sacrifice.

But the black-robed man sneered coldly and said, "Fan Liya, I underestimated your charm. I didn’t expect someone would willingly throw their life away for you!"

"Honorable Envoy, this has nothing to do with him. Please, let him leave. I’ll make sure he goes!" Fan Liya quickly responded.

"Leave?"

The black-robed man grinned menacingly, "Since he’s seen us, do you think I’ll let him go? Don’t worry, I’ll make sure he dies by enduring the Ten Thousand Gu Devouring Body punishment!"

Ten Thousand Gu Devouring Body?

Fan Liya’s face turned pale upon hearing this.

She knew that the Ten Thousand Gu Devouring Body punishment was the cruelest penalty of the Black Miao Clan. The victim was surrounded by myriad poisonous insects.

Each of these insects inflicted a different kind of pain on the victim.

Only an incredibly skilled Gu Master, like the black-robed man, could unleash such a fearsome method of the Black Miao Clan.

Ten Thousand Gu Devouring Body—living would be worse than dying!

Clenching her teeth, she stepped forward, determined to embrace the black-robed man.

As the vessel for nurturing the Gu God, she knew that while the venomous enticement had yet to mature, the black-robed man wouldn’t kill her. If she could buy Ye Fei some time, he might have the chance to escape.

"Ye Fei, run quickly! My father, mother, and grandmother have already died because of this Gu God. Too many lives have been lost. I don’t want to see anyone else die because of me. Go!"

With that thought, Fan Liya swiftly stepped forward and clenched the black-robed man, ready to signal Ye Fei to make his escape.

"The Ten Thousand Gu Devouring Body punishment? Hah! Why don’t you give it a try?"

At that moment, Ye Fei remained calm and smiled as he spoke.

This Ye Fei... was he an idiot?

Fan Liya was stunned, her arms loosening their grip on the black-robed man.

After trying so hard to prevent unnecessary losses, Ye Fei wasn’t fleeing?

Was his brain missing a critical part? Was he unaware of the grave danger? Or was he simply a fool?

Saying something like that—how could the black-robed man possibly let him go?

Of course not!

Sure enough, the black-robed man, previously furious at Fan Liya for obstructing him, turned his anger to laughter upon hearing Ye Fei’s words.

"Hahaha! Truly a foolish boy. No, maybe just a complete idiot. Fan Liya defied me for you, and yet you stand here like a convenient sacrifice? Fine, since you’re so eager to die, let me grant you the punishment of Ten Thousand Gu Devouring Body!"

As he spoke, the black-robed man slowly spread his hands, and a vivid cloud of mist appeared between his palms.

But those in the know would understand that this colorful mist wasn’t mere vapor; it was formed entirely by concentrated venomous Gu worms—a deadly force!

"Ye Fei! Run!"

Seeing the gathering swarm of Gu worms, Fan Liya screamed in panic.

But Ye Fei remained calm and focused, as though oblivious to the imminent danger approaching.

Is this the end?

Fan Liya couldn’t bear to watch. She covered her eyes, unable to witness the horrifying scene about to unfold.

"Hah! So it’s the Ten Thousand Gu Devouring Body punishment. Looks like you’re a Gu Master of the Black Miao Clan?"

Suddenly, just as tension reached its peak—

A white figure darted out from the shadows, swiftly standing between the black-robed man and the others, his gaze filled with confidence and amusement.

The black-robed man furrowed his brows and said in surprise, "The White Miao Clan?"

The White Miao Clan?

Fan Liya uncovered her eyes and saw the white figure—a man clad in a pure white robe. Unlike the black-robed man, this newcomer was much younger.

The white-robed man glanced briefly at Fan Liya before glaring at the black-robed man with a sneer, "Indeed. I am a member of the White Miao Clan. I can’t believe your Black Miao Clan dares to use living beings to nurture venomous enticements. Such heinous acts defy all natural principles!"

Turning back to Fan Liya, the white-robed man said, "Miss, step behind me. With me here, the Black Miao Clan will never harm you!"

Fan Liya’s eyes brightened as she looked at the composed demeanor of the white-robed man. Without hesitation, she began moving behind him.

She also glanced at Ye Fei, gesturing for him to take refuge as well.

But Ye Fei stood motionless, his only action being a deliberate closure of the hand he had extended behind his back.

Seeing Ye Fei act so obstinately, Fan Liya stamped her foot in frustration. As much as she didn’t want Ye Fei to die, she was ultimately just an ordinary girl.

Faced with such dire circumstances, her instincts drove her to hide behind the white-robed man, seeking any semblance of safety she could find.

After Fan Liya had moved behind him, the white-robed man smiled faintly then faced the black-robed man, sneering, "What’s wrong? Afraid of the White Miao Clan?"

"Hmph! So what if you’re from the White Miao Clan? Do you think I fear you?"

The black-robed man hurled his poisonous Gu worms, which he had been cultivating, towards the white-robed man without any hesitation.

The white-robed man remained unfazed. He smirked and drew a jade-green bamboo flute, placing it at his lips.

The moment he began playing, the poison-fueled insects halted suddenly, each one falling lifelessly to the ground.

The black-robed man staggered backward, supported by his two followers, and coughed up blood.

"That... that’s the Gu Control Flute? You... you’re the Great Gu Master of the White Miao Clan!" the black-robed man exclaimed in shock.

"Hah, you’re just realizing now?"

The white-robed man lowered the flute and sneered, "Indeed, I am Sang Kun, the Great Gu Master of the White Miao Clan. Be wise and leave now, or I’ll claim your life!"

"To think it was Sang Kun, the Great Gu Master... I admit defeat!"

The black-robed man looked at Sang Kun with a bitter smile.

But as his gaze landed on Fan Liya, who had visibly relaxed, he broke into laughter, "Fan Liya, do you think this Sang Kun is some benevolent savior? His White Miao Clan talks a good game, but aren’t they just after the venomous enticement in your body?"
