361: Chapter 356 The Appearance of the Miaojiang Venerable 361: Chapter 356 The Appearance of the Miaojiang Venerable “Ye Tian, what’s wrong?”
Perhaps sensing the grave expression on Ye Tian’s face, Yun Xinyan asked with concern.
“It’s nothing, I’m fine…”
Under no circumstance could Yun Xinyan learn about the Golden Silkworm Gu within him.
Ye Tian waved his hand, feigning a smile.
The palpitations from the Golden Silkworm Gu inside him would stop automatically after an hour or two.
Ye Tian wanted to suppress the Golden Silkworm Gu until he got off the plane, and then he would be out of danger.
After arriving in Jiang City, he’d find an excuse to go to Miaojiang and resolve the issue with the Golden Silkworm Gu once and for all!
“Honey, we’re boarding…”
Just as Ye Tian began to speak, he spotted a green figure in the crowd.
Wasn’t this the green-robed, green-haired man he had seen in Jiang City?
Could it be that the people from Miaojiang had already arrived in the Capital City?
A strange smile appeared on Ye Tian’s face.
If that was the case, there was no need to travel all the way to Miaojiang to find them—they had come to him!
“Honey, you go back first!
I still need to stay in the Capital City for a while!”
Ye Tian changed his words, and Yun Xinyan was taken aback.
“Ye Tian, what are you saying?
Why aren’t you coming back with me?”
Yun Xinyan asked in surprise.
The Capital City was full of dangers, with ruthless characters everywhere.
Why did Ye Tian still want to stay?
“Listen, honey, the Capital City is very dangerous.
If you stay here, I’ll be distracted, and you could very well be used as a bargaining chip to threaten me.
So, if you’re not in the Capital City, I can act more freely and boldly!”
Ye Tian persuaded her.
Yun Xinyan knew she would be a hindrance to Ye Tian, so she could only nod silently.
“Ye Tian, I know I can’t be of much help with many things.
I’ll head back to Jiang City now.
Please be careful with everything in the Capital City!”
Reluctance was clear in Yun Xinyan’s words, but as a reasonable woman, she knew staying in the Capital City would only be a burden on Ye Tian.
Therefore, she preferred to endure the pain of separation rather than cause him trouble.
“Good wife, come here for a hug!”
Saying that, Ye Tian embraced Yun Xinyan warmly, and she didn’t refuse, hugging him back.
Their embrace was very sweet.
“Ye Tian, I need to board the plane now.
Be careful with everything in the Capital City!”
Yun Xinyan said again.
At that moment, a strange green light flickered in her eyes.
However, even Ye Tian didn’t notice this green light, and Yun Xinyan remained unaware as well, feeling no different than usual…
After seeing Yun Xinyan off on the plane, Ye Tian returned to the airport terminal.
He used his clairvoyant ability to start looking for clues to the green-robed figure.
Although it was just a fleeting glimpse, Ye Tian could clearly identify that the person was the green-robed, green-haired man he had seen in Jiang City, someone from Miaojiang who was closely related to the Golden Silkworm Gu inside him.
But after sending Yun Xinyan away, he did not find the green-robed figure in the airport waiting area, meaning the man must have left the airport.
“The trail has gone cold!”
Ye Tian shook his head in resignation.
But even if the green-robed man wasn’t near the airport, he must be in some other corner of the Capital City.
As long as he was in the Capital City, he would not be able to escape Ye Tian’s search.
Ye Tian firmly believed he would find those people from Miaojiang one day.
For now, he decided to return to the hotel and quietly watch for developments.
“Huh?
Didn’t you already leave?
Why are you back again?”
Upon arriving at the hotel, Nian Shuang’er looked at Ye Tian in surprise.
When Ye Tian and Yun Xinyan had left, her eyes were filled with reluctance, but unexpectedly, Ye Tian had come back.
“What about that beautiful lady?
Didn’t she come back with you?”
Nian Shuang’er, seeing Ye Tian alone, looked behind him, but there was no sign of Yun Xinyan.
“My wife went home.
Before she left, she was especially concerned about you, the front desk girl at the hotel.
She said she had a message for me to pass on to you!”
Ye Tian said with a smile.
Upon hearing that the gorgeous married woman Yun Xinyan had a message for her, Nian Shuang’er immediately became very excited.
“What message?
Tell me quickly!”
Nian Shuang’er’s head drew close as she spoke.
Ye Tian leaned in and whispered in her ear, “My wife asked me to tell you that just watching love action movies from the island nation won’t help you grow.
If you really want to learn, she can teach you!”
“What?!”
Nian Shuang’er’s cheeks instantly turned red, these words obviously weren’t something Yun Xinyan would say; they must have come from Ye Tian himself.
But Ye Tian didn’t linger at the front desk to chat with Nian Shuang’er.
After renewing his room stay, he went back to his room.
This was the same suite he had stayed in with Yun Xinyan, with everything still in place.
Ye Tian found it all too familiar, but without Yun Xinyan, the room somehow felt empty and hollow.
That night, nothing happened, and Ye Tian went to sleep.
However, he suddenly woke up in the middle of the night!
The Golden Silkworm Gu inside his body began to tremble violently, far more intensely than the natural pulsations before.
It was highly likely that someone was using a technique to stimulate the tremors of the Golden Silkworm Gu…
“Return, return, return…”
Inside Ye Tian’s body, such a voice suddenly echoed, indicating that the person employing the technique was using the Golden Silkworm Gu to communicate with him.
To Ye Tian’s surprise, his body began to move involuntarily…
Someone was summoning him, and Ye Tian’s steps shifted, moving towards the door.
“Really using such underhanded tricks on me?”
Ye Tian sneered.
If it were a normal person, they would have been controlled by now, but he was no ordinary individual.
The former King of the Night, how could he be controlled by this trivial Gu insect?
Slowly gathering the strength within his body, Ye Tian also flexed his muscles a bit; he could move his hands now and was capable of breaking free from the constraint of the Golden Silkworm Gu at any moment to regain control of his body.
But if he did that, wouldn’t this precious lead be lost again?
It would be such a pity, so Ye Tian couldn’t just sit idly by and watch the opportunity slip away.
He decided not to forcefully channel his energy and let his body respond to the distant summons, taking steps forward one after another.
Ye Tian had left the hotel and was headed in an unfamiliar direction…
Before long, he arrived at a villa area in Yanjing City.
Although it was a villa area, there was no security at the entrance, and Ye Tian walked straight in, arriving at a standalone villa.
The door was not closed, and Ye Tian entered slowly, reaching the living room where an imposing old man was sitting cross-legged, murmuring to himself.
Next to the old man, a green-haired, green-robed man stood respectfully, not daring to say a word.
Seeing Ye Tian in front of him, the old man immediately exclaimed with joy, “Hahaha, Ye Tian, you’ve finally become my Gu Puppet!”
The green-robed man hurriedly brown-nosed, “Congratulations to the Honored One, kudos to the Honored One.
Even the King of the Night has fallen under your control.
Starting today, he belongs to the Honored One.
From now on, he will conquer the lands far and wide, securing a magnificent realm for the Honored One!”
The Miaojiang Venerable Miao Dong stopped his manipulation and stood up, coming before Ye Tian, sizing him up.
“Truly worthy of being the King of the Night.
Such formidable physique, unprecedented.
Compared to those previous Gu Puppets of mine, he’s much stronger!”
Miao Dong couldn’t help saying, and the green-robed man hurriedly agreed, “Honored One, even if Ye Tian is strong, he’s no match for you.
Now, isn’t he obediently at your mercy?”
While the green-robed man was speaking, Ye Tian suddenly reached out towards Miao Dong!
Miao Dong was shocked and hastily dodged!!
“How is that possible!?”
A Gu Puppet that he supposedly controlled was moving to strike him, something absolutely unthinkable.
Ye Tian’s spiritual power was so formidable that even the Golden Silkworm Gu couldn’t control him?
“You still have self-awareness?” Miao Dong coldly remarked.
“A mere Gu insect, how could it possibly trouble me?
I purposely walked into your trap.
If not for that, how could I have possibly found you, the perpetrator?”
Ye Tian said disdainfully, and with that, he launched an attack on the Miaojiang Venerable Miao Dong.
If he hadn’t guessed wrong, this person before him was the main culprit behind the Golden Silkworm Gu inside him.
By dealing with him, the agony caused by the Golden Silkworm Gu would vanish.
“Just you?”
Miao Dong sneered coldly, not at all afraid of Ye Tian’s attack.
“Ye Tian, you’ve got some nerve, daring to make a move against the Honored One!”
The green-robed man joined the fray, and all at once, it became a two-on-one situation.
Even though Ye Tian had subdued countless enemies, these crafty Miaojiang people were still rarely encountered.
The green-robed, green-haired man had a faint green aura entwined around his palms.
Without looking, Ye Tian knew his palms were poisoned, and terribly so!
A mere touch would result in poisoning!
Although with Ye Tian’s skills, a little bit of fatal toxin would not be enough to bring him down, he was still somewhat cautious when facing the green-robed man.
As for the Miaojiang Venerable, he was much stronger than the green-robed man by more than just a notch.
Despite his age, Miao Dong’s movements were swift, and his punches vigorous and powerful, mismatched with his advanced years.
What’s more, there seemed to be a unique power contained within Miao Dong’s body, a power that Ye Tian had never seen before…
“Boom!”
The combined attack of the green-robed man and Miao Dong caught Ye Tian off guard.
Miao Dong’s forceful palm struck straight at Ye Tian’s chest.
Ye Tian was knocked back two steps, his insides churning, almost unable to stand!
The two opponents before him were truly difficult to deal with…
