Upon hearing their words, I furrowed my brow slightly.
It is known that even the most ordinary Gu Worm recognizes its master.
Not to mention the Top Heart Gu in Da Shiran's hands.
Moreover, Little Green Snake has already consumed Da Shiran's Heart's Blood, so it will definitely assist her.
While everyone was discussing, Da Shiran glanced at me, a hint of disdain curling at the corners of her mouth.
"Alright, let the Gu Worm choose its master!"
She stepped in front of me, malice evident on her face.
"But to be fair, I'll let you try first."
The villagers nodded in agreement upon hearing her words.
"Yes, let Da Xin try first!"
"After all, Da Xin is the most skilled Gu cultivator in our Village."
"Exactly, I believe Da Xin will surely win."
Listening to their words, I nodded.
Although I had little confidence in this contest, I had lived once before.
Surely I could outsmart them a bit.
I slowly picked up the bamboo flute in my hand and began to play a melodious tune.
As the music filled the air, the Little Green Snake remained completely still, staring at me.
It showed no reaction, as if it were listening intently to the melody.
Seeing this scene, the villagers were filled with excitement.
"Look! The Little Green Snake isn't moving!"
"Could it really be acknowledging Da Xin as its master?"
"Oh my, that can't be possible!"
Just as everyone was discussing this, the Little Green Snake began to move.
It slowly slithered towards me.
Witnessing this, my heart soared with joy.
Indeed!
The measures I had taken after my rebirth were working!
From now on, all I had to do was avoid anything from her family!
No one would be able to take my Gu Worm away from me again.
Just when I thought I was about to win, the Little Green Snake suddenly changed direction.
It quickly slithered towards Da Shiran and, in the blink of an eye, had climbed onto her shoulder.
The Little Green Snake affectionately rubbed its head against her cheek.
Seeing this, Da Shiran was overjoyed.
She extended her finger and gently stroked the Little Green Snake's head, her eyes filled with pride.
"The Little Green Snake has recognized me as its master; I am its true owner!"
As everyone discussed this, Cui Kun stepped onto the stage with a dark expression.
"Enough! This is the Saintess Selection Competition, not a place for you to chat!"
"If you two want to keep fighting, get out of the Village!"
Hearing this, I silently lowered my head.
Although I was confident in my Gu Worm, I had to win this Saintess Selection Competition.
After all, if I lost, I would be sent to the ancestral hall to become a Temple Warden.
At that point, not only would revenge be impossible, but survival would be difficult as well.
So I had to come up with a plan.
I looked at the arrogant Da Shiran before me and suddenly had an idea.
“Village Chief, I have a great plan.”
“Since we both have a Little Green Snake, why not put them together and let them fight to the death? The one that survives will be the victor, the Gu Worm.”
Upon hearing my words, Da Shiran turned pale.
She stammered, “That doesn’t seem right. After all, the Little Green Snake was raised with Heart's Blood. If it dies, I would be heartbroken.”
The villagers, hearing this, urged me to abandon the idea.
“Yes, Da Xin, the Little Green Snake is raised with Heart's Blood. It would be such a shame if it died.”
“Exactly! Da Shiran has already suffered so much; it would be so unfair if she lost now.”
“In my opinion, why not let the Gu Worm choose its own master?”
Hearing their words, I frowned.
