Ancient World: Arc 5.21

When the crowd heard Khonghu Jun's words, doubts flashed through their hearts.

Yes, if Khonghu Jun could control the gu worms, why would he let them enter the Medicine King Valley?

If they made a mistake and killed Khonghu Jun, wouldn't they have no one to save them from any illnesses or disasters in the future?

"We have all been tricked by Chi Yuanxian!" Khonghu Jun coughed and lifted a trembling finger to point at her lovers and hissed, "Look at this! Half of her lovers make up the martial world. So who is more ambitious between me and her? "

Khonghu Jun had gone out of the valley to chase after Chi Yuanxian after stealing his mother worm, but not long after the chase, he heard rumors that he had kidnapped her. Seeing the constantly tangled crowd, Khonghu Jun frowned tightly, somewhat puzzled.

What was Chi Yuanxian trying to accomplish here?

Prove her charm? Or trying to catch a dead fish in her net.

Her actions had not only caused both of them to lose their reputations, but they had also become the public enemy of the entire martial world.

He could not figure out her purpose, but he could only grit his teeth and eat the bitter Huang Lian.

**Huang Lian is a bitter Chinese herb**

So what if he escaped? Where could he escape to?

If he escaped now, he would become a rat in the street and everyone would mock him.

Seeing the crowd muttering in disbelief, Khonghu Jun took another step and slowly grabbed a handful of things from his bosom and suddenly raised them to the sky, scattering them all over the garden.

The crowd's eyes were aghast, and they hurriedly covered their mouths and noses and said angrily, "Be careful of poison!"

Someone even kicked Khonghu Jun in anger, sending him to the feet of the people in the inner circle.

Khonghu Jun spat out a mouthful of black blood and let out a bitter laugh, stretching out his hand and pointing tremblingly at those people, "Look at them!"

The crowd, who were originally glaring with anger, stopped and looked in the direction of his finger, only to see Chi Yuanxian's lovers looking strange.

In a few moments, Chi Yuanxian's lovers, who had been questioning Khonghu Jun with worried faces, now had confused and shameful expressions on their faces as they looked around, unable to remember why they had come here or why they wanted to save Chi Yuanxian.

The father and son looked at each other with a look of remorse and shame on their faces, and the father even gritted his teeth and was about to clasp his hand around his neck.

Seeing this, the son hurriedly pulled his father's arm and said urgently, "Father, what are you doing?"

The father gritted his teeth and said with remorse, "I…I have wronged you and your mother, so I have to die to atone for your sins!"

The son was not willing to let his old man die, so he hurriedly said, "Father, why are you so brain-dead? Both Lord Ren and the Medicine King have said that we were poisoned by Chi Yuanxian and that is why we did this kind of thing. If you were to die, wouldn't it be just like what she wanted? "

The father let out a long sigh before lowering his arm.

They turned their heads to look at Khonghu Jun, and the man who had kicked him was even more ashamed, reaching out to help him up, "Lord Medicine King, please forgive me for my rudeness. I was in a hurry, so I hurt you. "

Khonghu shook his head and said, "No harm, no foul. You didn't mean to do it. What I just threw out was the antidote to the Love Poison, which I risked taking from the Chi Yuanxian, and that is how I was seriously injured. "

The man supported Khonghu Jun and asked with a frown, "What about this Chi Yuanxian? Does the medicine king know she has gone? "

Khonghu Jun shook his head, "After she injured me, I watched her escape. She is my sister, and she has done such a thing to harm the martial world, so it is my fault. I have no complaints, but all I ask is that the martial world not be blinded by Chi Yuanxian. "

After Khonghu said so much, the scales in the crowd's hearts began to tip again.

Yes, it was obvious to everyone that Chi Yuanxian had seduced many men and turned the martial world into her harem.

But what had Khonghu Jun done wrong?

If they had misunderstood Khonghu Jun and killed him by mistake, who would they go to for help afterwards?

Moreover, they had all received favours from him before. If it weren't for his kindness in saving their lives, they would not be where they are today.

A drop of water should be repaid with a spring. They could not be so ungrateful as to listen to slander.

Khonghu Jun had just hinted that Ren Qiankun had also been poisoned by love. Perhaps Ren Qiankun had received instructions from Chi Yuanxian to lead them in besieging the innocent Khonghu Jun?

Those who had been under the love poison were shocked by what they had done before and had long since lost interest in fighting. And those martial artists who had not been poisoned all turned their spears on Ren Qiankun.

Seeing everyone's hostile expressions, Ren Qiankun was momentarily speechless and instinctually went toward Ning Xuan Bing to save him.

At that moment, Ren Qiankun suddenly felt his body soften, and his strength was as if it had been drained from his body, and he reluctantly lay on the ground.

He found that he was not the only one lying on the ground, all the martial artists were also lying on the ground. Now the only person standing was Khonghu Jun.

With a change of expression, Khonghoujun threw back his head and let out a loud laugh, "Fighting with me? You are still a bit young. "

He wiped his face, and there was no sign of poison on his face. Khonghu Jun took two brisk steps and laughed, "Chi Yuanxian is not my opponent, nor is this martial world of yours. You don't go when there is a way to heaven, but you try to barge into the hell that has no door. "

"Let me tell you, I put the gu worms in your ears, and I am behind your frequent injuries. I am like the god of this martial world, if I tell it to turn over today, it will! "

Khonghu Jun was appalled in his heart, but his mouth continued to speak uncontrollably, "You turned against me? Hahahaha, since you have turned against me, I cannot keep you. As long as there are people in this world, there will be martial arts. You are but stepping stones. The story from today will be that you were under Chi Yuanxian's compulsion to kill everyone. I righteously helped by killing you to save the martial world. You will die, but the martial world still belongs to me, Khonghu Jun!"

No, that's not what I want to say! What is going on here? And I didn't even poison anyone. How on earth did these people fall to the ground?

With frightened eyes, Khonghu Jun scanned these people through the corner of his eyes, and his eyes stayed on one person with a sudden shock.

Ning Xuan Bing!

In his hand was the mother worm!

In a place where no one could see, Ning Xuan Bing smiled at him, and with a flick of his finger, he saw an object fly into Ren Qian Kun's mouth.

Ren Qiankun only felt as if something had entered his mouth, and in the blink of an eye, his otherwise weak body was filled with strength again.

He looked at Ning Xuan Bing suspiciously. For some reason, he always felt that his detoxification of the love poison was inseparably related to Ning Xuan Bing.

But whether it was related to him or not, Ren Qiankun struggled to his feet and drew out the nine-ringed sword pinned to his waist and stared angrily at Khonghu Jun.

"Old Khonghu, you don't have the best of intentions!"

Khonghu Jun snorted coldly, "I did not poison you!"

Unexpectedly, he turned his fingers into claws and grabbed at Ren Qiankun, who picked up his nine-ringed sword and struck him with a vicious slash.

Khonghu Jun's hands kept moving, but in his heart, he was terrified.

His body was being manipulated, as if under gu worm compulsion, but not exactly. Even he could only change the host's mind with the soul-sucking worm, but not control the body like this.

In other words, when one manipulates the soul-sucking worm, one is manipulating the host's mind. But in his current situation, it is obvious that his mind is very clear, but his body is not under his control.

He was now like a puppet on a string, being led by the nose!

The fight between the two men became more intense, and in the blink of an eye, they had gone several rounds. In these rounds, they each won or lost, and wounds of varying sizes appeared on their bodies.

Suddenly, Khonghu Jun let out d roar and put a pill into his mouth. His internal strength suddenly soared by more than ten times.

In his heart, Khonghu Jun was shocked that his body had just taken the pill. Although this pill could increase stamina, the downside was that his veins would burst and he would die!

Khonghu Jun roared in anger and rolled his eyes to give Bai Lixin a fierce glare, but his hands disappeared and he grabbed at Ren Qiankun again.

The Khonghou method that he halearnednt was unstoppable if his internal power was supplemented by his weapon.

But now, under Bai Lixin's manipulation, he could only be controlled by Bai Lixin. He could not go to the right if Bai Lixin told him to go to the left.

Khonghu Jun could only feel his life dwindling, and in his heart he wailed in despair: "My life is over!"

Ren Qiankun was no match for Khonghu Jun, who had taken the pill, but he was the only one standing on ground.

Gritting his teeth, Ren Qiankun used his nine-ringed sword to support himself as he stood up and spat out a mouthful of blood with a "bah."

The crowd was lying weakly on the ground, but they did not faint.

They were ashamed to see their Martial Lord fighting for the martial world, and remembered their accusations just now.

After this battle, Ren Qiankun's position in the martial world could no longer be shaken.

"With a loud snap, Ren Qiankun was struck by Khonghu Jun and crashed straight into the wall.

The crowd had worried expressions on their faces, but the truly worried one was the seemingly victorious Khonghu Jun.

He felt that his power had soared to its limit and was about to explode.

If his body was under his control, he could have killed Ren Qiankun with a single move.

But now this body was putting on a show, using a small percentage of its power to make a move, which was not enough to kill anyone.
