CHAPTER 762: CHAPTER 762: THREE TEMPLES RUSH OVER

"Let’s not then." Ye Shikai shook his head like a rattle-drum. One Single Love Poisonous Insect had already caused him enough pain; if any more weird things happened, who knows what trouble might occur...

"When you said you wanted to look everywhere and now you don’t, isn’t that inappropriate?" The woman’s face flashed a hint of cunning. "Come on, I’ll show you around."

"Ah, then lead the way," Ye Shikai sighed. He was now certain that the woman bore him no hostility; however, her personality was quite bizarre, almost like a "female lunatic." That said, highly skilled cultivators often appeared much younger than they actually were, and since this woman was also the Sect Leader of the Worm Sect, she might possess a type of worm that could preserve youth. How old was she really? She surely couldn’t be as old as Chen Yaogzu—a "century-old monster"—and still look like she was in her twenties? Thinking about this, Ye Shikai suddenly felt a chill. Could she possibly be Elder Lady Tianshan? But he dared not ask her age directly, as it’s a sensitive topic for any woman.

Especially for a temperamental woman like her.

Who knows if she’d feed him to the worms if he asked...

At that moment, a disciple hurried over with a tense look on his face, causing three parts displeasure to show on the woman’s face.

"What’s wrong?" the woman asked coldly, her voice containing a hint of chill.

"Sect Leader, many people have arrived outside, and it seems they are targeting us," the disciple said gravely in haste.

"What happened?" Ye Shikai turned to ask, also curious.

"Heh, isn’t this all your doing?" the woman turned around, releasing a powerful aura suddenly; Ye Shikai almost felt his entire body trembling. It was like a powerless woman or child being targeted by a ferocious beast that hadn’t eaten for three days.

"What do you mean?" Ye Shikai asked, feeling an ominous premonition.

"Follow me and you’ll see," the woman said lightly and turned toward the entrance of the Worm Sect.

"Wait for me!" Ye Shikai quickly followed, but without his Inner Strength, he couldn’t keep up and was quickly left behind by the woman.

.......................................

At the entrance of the Worm Sect, a group of fully-armed individuals had blocked the sect’s main gate, with M249s and M4s—imported weapons only seen in films—and even several Poison Stinger Missiles. The firepower was extremely terrifying.

"Listen up, hand over Old Ye, or I’ll start firing!" A man wielding a megaphone shouted at the gate; it was none other than Wang Kai.

Most of the Worm Sect’s buildings were made of wood, which looked quite mismatched compared to the modern weapons in their hands. Several disciples of the Worm Sect stood at the gate with tense expressions, not responding to Wang Kai’s words.

"Soul Destroyer, this is the place, right?" Wang Kai tossed the megaphone aside casually and asked Soul Destroyer while standing on top of his vehicle.

"That’s right, this is the place."

"Alright, then I’ll blow this rotten gate open and not leave a single piece intact," Wang Kai said loudly, taking out the War God Spear and channeling his Inner Strength, preparing to blast the wooden gate open with a mighty whirlwind.

"Stop." At that moment, Ji Qian swiftly grabbed Wang Kai. "He’s still inside. Once you make a move, the people inside will react."

"Lord Moon God is right. Boss should still be safe now. Let’s try not to resort to violence," Ghost also expressed agreement. After all, even Ye Shikai wasn’t their match, rashly starting a fight might not ensure victory.

"Worm Sect has a formidable reputation in Huaxia and shouldn’t be underestimated."

"Hmph, with masters from Three Temples here, I’m not afraid of them," Wang Kai dismissed, having rushed over first upon hearing the news that Ye Shikai was kidnapped, and he had brought all these weapons himself.

Netherworld Palace, War God Temple, and Moon God Temple’s masters had all gathered here, forming a "majestic scene" of the Underworld. Their strength was truly formidable, and perhaps even more worrying than the dreadful Worm Sect was the safety of Ye Shikai.

An hour later.

"No, I can’t wait any longer." Wang Kai, unable to bear it anymore and known for his belligerent nature either fought or surrendered outright. Now, this bunch of bastards had just kidnapped Ye Shikai; how could he tolerate this.

Wang Kai rushed to the front, glanced at Ji Qian, and received an acquiescing look, then picked up the megaphone lying on the ground.

"Listen up inside, I’m giving you five minutes to hand over the person, or I’ll start firing," Wang Kai roared, waving his hand as four men behind him aimed their Poison Stinger Missiles right at the gate of the Worm Sect.

.......................................

"Countdown: five, four, three, two, one—fire," Wang Kai watched his watch countdown, and when the second hand hit "12," he bellowed.

"Who dares to be so reckless?" Suddenly, a white figure leaped from the gate and landed steadily on the ground.

"Stop." Wang Kai immediately waved his hand, signaling his men to stand down while vigilantly watching the woman in front of him.

"There sure are a lot of you here," the woman said, looking down on everyone like a high queen, showing no fear.

"So you’re their leader, huh? I didn’t expect it to be a woman," Wang Kai stepped forward and yelled. As soon as he finished speaking, a few of his subordinates started laughing.

"Impudent boy, you really are audacious," the woman sneered, slowly stretching out her hand, and a majestic aura suddenly burst forth. Although she appeared calm on the exterior, all the cultivators present could feel the strength of her aura, almost comparable to Ye Shikai, especially Ji Qian. As a woman herself, she understood more about this female Sect Leader. Wang Kai’s forehead began to sweat, but at this point, he had no choice but to confront her and try to defeat her.

"War God Spell—Whirlwind Sweep," Wang Kai swung the War God Spear, and the clear sky instantly darkened, with flashes of lightning faintly visible. A violent wind kicked up from nowhere, swirling dust and stones around, and a tornado began to form, sweeping up the nearby flowers and plants. Wang Kai shouted, and the tornado charged toward the woman.

"Interesting," the woman moved swiftly, dodging the Whirlwind Sweep with an extremely strange movement technique, and charged straight toward Wang Kai.

At that moment, only Ji Qian noticed the few wriggling "black objects" in the woman’s hand—she knew the ins and outs of the Worm Sect all too well, instantly understanding what the woman was holding.

It was a worm.

"Moonlight Formation," Ji Qian’s pupils constricted as she grabbed her Magic Wand, almost simultaneously making a move against the woman.
