Tang Rao forcibly used his secret martial art, Taotie Hand, to kill Yan Lin.
According to the plot development, Yan Lin was already so difficult to handle, not to mention the Second Son of Yan Family. Just dealing with the Gu Worms on his body would take a long time.
However, so many masters took action that, even the Gu Worms turned into a pool of water on the ground after the Second Son of Yan Family died, leaving no corpse behind.
Could it really be that easy, just like that, gone?
Simply unexpected, simply unbelievable.
With the Second Son of Yan Family dead, those who had been poisoned by the Gu Worms suddenly felt a tumult in their hearts, all experiencing the same sensation of wanting to vomit.
This feeling of nausea was unbearable, and soon, seeing one person start to vomit, others followed suit, shockingly discovering that what they vomited were actually small dead snakes.
How those snakes got into their bodies, they had no sense of at all.
Seeing piles of snakes fall to the ground, everyone was covered in a fine layer of sweat.
The cold sweat almost formed a small river; of course, this was just an exaggeration.
"Young one, what are these things, what on earth is going on, if we don't kill this person, are we really doomed?"
Some still hadn't recovered from the previous harrowing scene, and even asking Tang Rao questions, their legs were still a bit shaky.
"What do I gain by deceiving you? Since he is dead, your lives are preserved. After all, today is the old master's birthday; it's better not to make things too difficult for the Yan Family. Not everyone in the Yan Family is like the Second Son, dabbling in these vile Gu Worm arts."
Poisonous Insect Technique is an art. Tang Rao felt that after listening to Bei Lin's indoctrination, he was gradually accepting the art of Gu and was also very rationally distinguishing between Gu art and Evil Technique. Good Gu art remained a Gu art, while harm-inducing Gu arts were Evil Techniques. After sorting these things out, Tang Rao felt especially at ease.
"My son, is my son really just dead like this?"
Yan Xiong looked at the Second Son of Yan Family's body, unable to come to his senses for a long time.
"Not dead? If not dead, do you want to wait until the new year?"
Bei Lin emerged from an inconspicuous spot in the crowd, and Tang Rao saw her immediately.
Since the masks were off and identities exposed, she no longer hid behind a masked disguise.
Her once fair face now showed pallor, as controlling so many Gu Worms required immense Immortal Energy, something that Tang Rao could detect just by using his nose.
Bei Lin did not conceal the fact that her strength was drained, but she deliberately hid one thing: if there had been any unintended incident while controlling the Gu Worms, Bei Lin would have been at risk of being backfired by them, thankfully, the risk did not happen to her.
"Lin Lin, are you okay?"
Tang Rao walked into the crowd, supporting Bei Lin as he moved her back to his previous spot.
"Just now, the Gu Worms on your bodies were fortunately controlled by my wife, allowing you to regain temporary clarity and ultimately save yourselves. I don't mind if you don't thank me, but if you have any conscience, you should thank my wife, right?"
Combining gratitude and conscience, Tang Rao's words instantly made those controlled by the Gu Worms understand his meaning.
The first to step forward was the elder who initially accused the Second Son of Yan Family, a generous elder who directly gifted a Space Ring to Bei Lin, "Thank you, young lady, for saving our lives. This is just a small token of my gratitude, please don't refuse."
Bei Lin, caught off guard, accepted the Space Ring. With Tang Rao's interruption, she even forgot to refuse the gift.
"We didn't really do much; accepting people's things isn't right, is it?"
When the ring reached Bei Lin's hands, she instinctively peeked inside and was shocked, quickly handing the ring to Tang Rao, implying that he should handle it?
"What's wrong with that? This elder is truly generous, giving things that even I am envious of. You just saved their lives; don't their lives outweigh these gifts?"
When Tang Rao actively helped Bei Lin claim compensation, some felt uncomfortable, but upon hearing what Tang Rao said, they found his words reasonable, and even if they were displeased, they had to offer corresponding gifts to Bei Lin.
Whoever gave too light a gift was essentially telling everyone that the life of a Family Head was worthless.
"Yes, this girl must have spent a lot of energy controlling those Gu Worms, you see how her complexion is so poor that it's distressing."
This time, the giver was an elderly woman, who naturally felt a sense of empathy for Bei Lin upon seeing her once rosy cheeks now pale, imagining her as if her own granddaughter had suffered grievances outside.
"It's okay, being able to save your lives is already my good deed. At most, I'll rest a bit and recover my lost energy. If your lives were gone, then you'd have nothing left."
Bei Lin's words made the white-haired woman regard her with higher respect.
So young, yet with such deep understanding, truly not easy.
"You've all thanked her, but what about my son? My son was also a life, how could you bear to take it?"
Yan Xiong was like a mad dog.
The originally harmonious atmosphere was once again broken by Yan Xiong.
"If your son hadn't died, all these people would have. If he hadn't used his Lifebound Poisonous Insect to control others, he wouldn't have ended up like this; his death was entirely his own doing, not anyone else's fault."
The Poisonous Insect Technique practiced by the Second Son of Yan Family was different from others'. Without mentioning that he himself had two Lifebound Poisonous Insects, his Lifebound Poisonous Insects directly affected the little Gu on others, allowing the little Gu to connect with his Lifebound Insects, sharing prosperity and adversity. Such scheming deserved to perish a thousand or eight hundred times.
Truly cruel, truly heartless.
"But that's my son, my son who carries on the family line!"
When Yan Xiong said these words, the Eldest Son of Yan Family was displeased.
What did Yan Xiong mean by that, the Second Son as the son to carry on the family line, where did that leave the Eldest Son? Saying such things in front of the Eldest Son clearly disregarded him.
"Enough, if the son to carry on your family line is dead, you probably find no meaning in living either. Why not join the son who could carry on your family now?"
Tang Rao didn't seem to be joking with Yan Xiong. If not for the fact that the Shu Family still held Yan Xiong's people, he needed to let Yan Xiong reunite with these people; he might have ended Yan Xiong's life right there and then.
