Chapter 44: Absolutely Not!
After entering Wancong Valley, the development was the same as Gu Yu had expected.
Although the fat worm didn’t seem very useful at first, it was very effective when it was actually used!
Just like now, when faced with a swarm of various poisonous insects launching a shameless group attack, the six-colored Gu worm directly twisted its plump body and jumped out. It let out a scream at the surrounding poisonous insects, immediately scaring them into utter disarray.
The suppression in terms of hierarchy was now fully exposed.
Especially since the six-colored Gu worm’s colors were so vibrant, other poisonous insects were too scared to move just by looking at it.
In human terms, they were so scared they peed themselves.
This showed that the six-colored Gu worm was definitely a overlord in the eyes of other insects.
After proudly driving away the poisonous insects, the originally majestic six-colored Gu worm immediately moved towards Gu Yu in a fawning manner, with a shy and eager look, wanting to take credit. Gu Yu simply ignored it.
However, sometimes, what you can’t get is forever restless!
Although the six-colored Gu worm was just a worm, after absorbing a lot of spiritual energy, it had become a very intelligent worm.
Its personality had become anthropomorphic, and it even had the potential for masochism.
Being treated like this by Gu Yu, it didn’t show any anger. Instead, it felt that a master like Gu Yu, who was so stern and unsmiling, was much better than those seductive and cheap people from previous generations.
It was very direct!
Thinking this, the six-colored Gu worm clung even tighter to Gu Yu.
Of course, it wasn’t clinging to Gu Yu just because Gu Yu had perfect spiritual energy.
Absolutely not!
“I’ve been to many places in Wancong Valley, and I wonder where the dragon that Pa Yinan saw last time is… I’ve been wandering around with the six-colored Gu worm for half a day, do I need the seven-colored Gu worm for this?”
Walking in Wancong Valley, Gu Yu was a little confused. He couldn’t help but stroke his chin and mutter to himself.
Coming to Wancong Valley this time was naturally not just for a casual stroll.
Gu Yu thought that with his luck as a transmigrator, maybe by wandering around Wancong Valley a few times, he could lure out that visible dragon.
After all, with the six-colored Gu worm by his side, there was already a bait to attract it.
However, until now, it had been very quiet around Gu Yu.
Apart from the poisonous insects crawling everywhere, there wasn’t even the sound of a bird, making the atmosphere a bit oppressive.
Thinking this, Gu Yu walked towards the innermost part of the valley, intending to see if there were any clues there.
He had already circled the entire outer area of Wancong Valley but hadn’t found any clues about the dragon. It was clear that Pa Yinan and the others were too lucky last time to see the shadow of the dragon in the outer area.
Gu Yu was not so lucky this time, so he could only accept his fate and head into the valley.
The further he went into Wancong Valley, the more dangerous it became.
Gu Yu had heard about this from Pa Yinan before coming to Wancong Valley.
This was also why Gu Yu had been wandering around the outer area for half a day, wanting to see if he could be lucky.
The reality proved that he was still unlucky!
Although Gu Yu now had the six-colored Gu worm clearing the way, ordinary poisonous insects couldn’t get close to him. However, it wouldn’t be good if he encountered more powerful Gu worms inside the valley later.
Especially since these insects would swarm him shamelessly, none of them dared to fight him one-on-one.
However, Gu Yu was still unhappy about returning empty-handed.
After some thought, Gu Yu prepared to continue forward.
Nothing could stop his determination to acquire treasures!
Even if it wasn’t a very good treasure, if it was named a supreme treasure of the Southern Border, it would definitely make those rich masters in the capital’s heart flutter, and they would buy it from him at a high price.
Just the thought of casually earning a large sum of silver made Gu Yu feel as if he had been injected with chicken blood, and he was extremely excited.
He wished he had divine abilities to move mountains and fill seas, to capture that dragon!
If he really caught that dragon, Gu Yu decided to sell it to Bai Qian, which would definitely earn him more gold and silver treasures.
As for keeping something for himself, Gu Yu felt that having one fat worm that forcibly recognized him as its master was enough. If he got another one, he couldn’t afford to raise it.
Although Gu Yu always thought about throwing the six-colored Gu worm into the latrine, he had already accepted it by now.
However, Gu Yu didn’t show it.
The punishment for the six-colored Gu worm was not over yet!
He wanted to let it know that he, Gu Yu, was not someone to be trifled with, and it should not think about jumping on his head in the future.
Gu Yu thought this way because the six-colored Gu worm’s forced recognition as master made Gu Yu feel a bit wary. He didn’t trust the six-colored Gu worm and felt like he had to guard against it everywhere.
If the six-colored Gu worm knew this, it would definitely cry itself to death in the toilet, thinking that it just wanted to hug a golden thigh!
It wasn’t for any other reason!
“Eh, there’s a cave here!”
Walking to the innermost part of Wancong Valley, as he saw the towering mountain in front of him, Gu Yu circled around it. When he saw a hole dug by some animal, his eyes lit up.
He was worrying about his progress, but now this cave entrance appeared out of nowhere!
There weren’t many fierce beasts in Wancong Valley, but looking at the size of the cave entrance, Gu Yu could confidently determine that it was a cave dug by a bear.
The reason was simple: Gu Yu had seen Xiao Hei digging many holes before, and they all looked like this…
Thinking of Xiao Hei and its bear wife at Gu Family in Yang Family Village, Gu Yu couldn’t help but miss them a bit. He planned to return to Yang Family Village after this trip to the Southern Border.
If Xiao Hei was willing, Gu Yu could take them to the capital.
However, thinking of the lazy guy Xiao Hei, Gu Yu felt that it wouldn’t leave its hometown.
While his mind was filled with miscellaneous thoughts, Gu Yu didn’t immediately enter the cave. Instead, he drove the six-colored Gu worm in to investigate.
Now that he had some connection with the six-colored Gu worm, Gu Yu could sense the surroundings for danger through the worm’s body, which was why he wanted to send the six-colored Gu worm in to scout.
Although it wouldn’t be too much of a problem for Gu Yu to enter the cave alone.
With space by his side, even if the sky fell and the earth cracked, Gu Yu would be in no danger.
However, Gu Yu felt that there was no need to risk his life alone, as he had a suitable candidate for an explorer by his side…
Knowing Gu Yu’s thoughts, the six-colored Gu worm really wanted to say “black-hearted boss,” but it felt that the matter of its forced recognition as master had not yet passed, so it should behave better.
However, the closer it got to the mountain, the more Gu Yu felt a sense of dread, as if it were being suppressed by higher-level insects.
This made the six-colored Gu worm have the urge to turn around and run, but looking at Gu Yu standing beside it, it suppressed this impulse.
Last time, in such dense spiritual energy, it felt more comfortable than an immortal!
It wanted to experience it again!
Therefore, it had to gain its master’s trust!
Thinking this, the six-colored Gu worm didn’t delay any longer and quickly crawled into the cave.
