Following everyone, Bai Chuan quietly approached the scene of the incident and silently climbed up a tall tree. He used his superior eyes to see the situation below.
What he saw shocked Bai Chuan.
This was because there were three factions below. One of them was fighting in the periphery, and a large number of people were desperately trying to rush into the center to interrupt his movements. The two of them tried their best to guard the center and not let others enter.
In the center, there were four or five people holding thin nets made of unknown materials trying to capture a stream of light, a flying white stream of light.
No, that was not a stream of light! It was a translucent white bug with a gap! He did not know where that insect came from, but it was being targeted at this moment.
It was unknown if it had also sensed its dangerous encounter, but it was charging left and right, trying to break through the encirclement. However, the material of the thin net was too special. In addition, there was a burly man holding a stick at the edge who would interrupt his movements from time to time.
Although the burly man did not attack much, every time he attacked, it was when the insect wanted to escape from the thin net. Therefore, under such circumstances, the insect was slowly sinking into the predicament of being captured.
Seeing this, a young man in the chaotic crowd suddenly shouted, "Fellow Daoists hiding in the surroundings, why aren't you attacking? If you don't attack now, this Icy Blood Cold Silkworm will be snatched away by the Li family. At that time, who among you will be able to snatch it from the Li family?"
As soon as these words were spoken, before the people around who were still hiding could move, they heard an old laugh. "Hehe, what Little Friend Zhou said makes sense. In that case, an old woman like me will make the first move." As she spoke, a benevolent-looking old woman in a deep robe walked out. As she appeared, a green snake with a triangular head poked out from her shoulder.
The next moment, she walked forward and swung her withered arm. A large amount of green powder floated out, and the smell was pungent. The light powder seemed to have a mind of its own as it flew forward. Wherever it passed, everyone would fall. No matter which side it was, they all collapsed to the ground and groaned in pain.
Seeing this, the young man who had spoken before subconsciously clenched his fists and cursed in a low voice, "Damn it!" However, he did not dare to say anything.
This was because the other party was a famous snake woman in the martial arts world. Her poison techniques had already reached perfection. It was said that she had even broken through to Limit Six the year before last. If he was targeted by her, unless his family protected him, he would not be able to escape death.
"Hahaha, Granny Snake is right. Zhao Yu is also here to join in the fun." Amidst the laughter, a young man and a woman joined the battle. Soon, they arrived beside the old woman.
At that moment, the side that wanted to stop the crowd was in imminent danger.
"It's them?" On the tall tree, Bai Chuan narrowed his eyes and looked at the two people who had just appeared. He realized that they were the two people he had met from the beginning.
Below.
When the old woman saw this, she revealed a kind smile and said, "Heh, Little Zhao, you're here too? Where's your father?"
"Granny…" The delicate woman was about to speak.
Crack! Crack! At this moment, another wave of intense cold air exploded. Countless cold air turned into incomparably sharp ice crystals that swept in all directions. The first to bear the brunt were the few people who wanted to surround and capture the white insect.
In an instant, the thin net was sent flying, and everyone fell over. Their bodies were covered in fine bloodstains.
This violent movement made everyone turn their heads involuntarily. They saw that the few people who were about to succeed in the center suddenly flew to the ground, leaving only the burly man who was still holding on.
Even so, his entire body was covered in frost and was on the verge of collapse.
"What… What a terrifying cold qi. Is this the power of the Icy Blood Cold Silkworm?" A shocked voice sounded.
"Such terrifying power. How terrifying would the Zhang family, who used to control such power, be?"
Swoosh! Swoosh! Several ear-piercing sounds rang out. A few masked mysterious people rushed over like black shadows, grabbing at the Icy Silkworm who was in a state of exhaustion.
"Don't even think about it!" An angry roar exploded. The burly man with the stick from before widened his eyes in anger. With a loud shout, he raised the stick with all his might and swung it. However, it was difficult for two hands to fight four fists, let alone a stick facing so many people.
One of the short men, whose face was covered, moved agilely and jumped up to dodge the incoming stick. His entire body was as agile as a dragonfly touching the water. Not only did he dodge the stick, but he also passed by the other masked men and approached the Icy Silkworm first.
The sudden accident finally made everyone react.
Coincidentally, a bewitching voice shouted from the crowd, "Everyone, the Icy Silkworm is about to be snatched away by the masked man. If we don't go forward and block him, he will run away. Moreover, there are too many people and eyes. Let's attack together. Whoever snatches it will get it. Isn't that wonderful?"
Everyone thought about it and felt that it made sense! They knew that this was probably the only chance they could grab, so they abandoned their opponents and rushed forward with all their might. For a moment, all kinds of curses sounded. They gathered together like they were going to a market.
"Granny, should we go up and snatch it?" Zhao Yu asked Granny Snake hesitantly. His expression seemed to be moved.
"No, we're not going." Unexpectedly, Granny Skane shook her head. As the saying goes, old people are wise.
Granny Snake had lived for most of her life and had seen all kinds of storms. Everyone's chaotic behavior gave her an ominous feeling. This premonition, coupled with the incomparably bold baby on her shoulder, made her control her desires.
It was a fear as if she was facing her natural enemy. It was as if she had accidentally barged into the deep forest when she was young and discovered a ferocious beast spying on her in the dark corner. Could it be that her baby had sensed some terrifying existence around it?
Of course, not everyone in the crowd was confused. Some smart people also realized that something was wrong, but they were too weak and were swept forward by the crowd. Only a small number of people left after realizing that something was wrong.
At this moment, the short man closest to the Icy Silkworm squatted down with a face full of joy. He wanted to extend his fingers wrapped in white cloth to grab the Icy Silkworm. However, something unexpected happened again.
The fat Icy Silkworm suddenly raised its head and spat out its tiny mouth. In an instant, a white stream of light was spat out and rushed towards the short man. The first thing it hit was his outstretched finger.
Crack! Crack!
A bone-chilling sound of ice could be heard. It was the sound of a human body rapidly freezing, and it started from the inside of the body. The short man did not even know what had happened before he was completely frozen and turned into a lifelike ice sculpture.
"Not good, retreat!" The stick-wielding man was the first to react. He let out a low cry and wanted to retreat, but it was too late!
A large group of people were rushing forward as if they were courting death. He had nowhere to retreat.
Just as he raised his foot to retreat, an aura that was colder than before spread out.
