I was just trying to scare them.
Now, seeing Cui Kun's arrogant demeanor, I felt a surge of anger within me.
But I couldn't just kill him.
This left me in a deep conflict.
Just as I was about to take action, my Attendant moved ahead of me.
He raised his knife and swung it at Cui Kun.
"I'll kill you, you beast!"
Seeing this, I quickly reached out to stop him.
"Wait!"
The Attendant halted his movement.
He turned to look at me.
"What is it?"
I cast a cold glance at Cui Kun.
"I understand what he means now."
"He is deliberately provoking me to make me kill him."
"That way, he can be free."
Upon hearing this, the Attendant frowned.
"What should we do then?"
I tilted my head, observing Cui Kun.
There he lay on the ground, wearing a smug expression.
It seemed he was certain I wouldn’t dare to kill him.
I let out a cold laugh.
Since he wasn’t afraid of death, I would deal with him in another way.
So, I ordered my men to throw Cui Kun into the The Pit of Ten Thousand Serpents.
Instantly, thousands of snakes surged out.
They relentlessly bit at Cui Kun’s body.
Cui Kun howled in agony.
He struggled desperately to escape.
However, that was already impossible.
Listening to Cui Kun's screams, I felt a sense of satisfaction in my heart.
I avenged my parents but did not kill Cui Kun.
Because I wanted him to live in pain for the rest of his life.
Only then could he pay for what he had done.
After leaving the dungeon, I felt a mix of emotions.
After all, I had never seen my parents even once.
Yet they had paid a painful price for me.
This made me even more determined to live well.
Thus, I began promoting the knowledge of raising Gu Worms in the Village.
At the same time, I worked hard to improve my skills in crafting Gu.
I pored over various ancient texts, searching for solutions to my current predicament.
After much effort, I finally discovered a high-level method for refining Gu.
However, this method requires specific medicinal materials.
Unfortunately, these materials are not available in the Village.
So, I went to seek help from the Tribe Leader.
“Respected Tribe Leader, I would like to ask you for a favor.”
Upon hearing my words, the Tribe Leader nodded.
“Please, speak, Holy Maiden.”
I smiled slightly.
“I need some specific medicinal materials to assist me in refining Gu.”
“But these materials are not found in the Village.”
“I heard that you have visited the neighboring tribe and have dealings with their people.”
“So I would like to ask you to help me contact them and see if they can assist me in finding those materials.”
The Tribe Leader frowned slightly upon hearing this.
“No problem.”
“I will contact them right away.”
“However, this kind of matter takes time, so please be patient.”
Hearing this, I nodded repeatedly.
“It’s alright.”
“As long as you can help me find the materials.”
A few days later, the Tribe Leader sent someone to notify me.
They helped me find the medicinal herbs I needed.
This made me very happy.
So, I returned to my room and began my cultivation.
This time, the cultivation process went very smoothly.
I felt my body filled with power.
I also felt more at ease than before.
I didn't finish my cultivation until evening.
When I stepped out of the room, the Attendant rushed over in a panic.
"Not good, Saintess!"
"Da Shiran and Cui Kun have escaped!"
I then spread the news throughout the Village.
A hefty reward was offered for any information leading to Cui Kun and Da Shiran.
They became like rats in the street within the Village.
Wherever they went, they would be recognized.
With this, they had nowhere to hide.
