Chapter 174

With such thoughts in mind, Long Xuan couldn't wait to start the work of studying the Longevity Gu formula, and his enthusiasm was higher than anyone else's.

This time, he didn't even need to look for materials to study the Gu formula; the secret room was full of ready-made ones. He had never fought such a wealthy battle before.

The day the Gu formula was livered was the day he would refine the Gu.

This time he could refine Gu for free and didn't need to waste time collecting materials like before. Long Xuan showed a refreshing smile.

But he hadn't entered the state for long when he was suddenly interrupted.

His pen stopped in mid-air, and he couldn't help but frown. Who on earth was not sleeping in the middle of the night to disturb him?

However, when Long Xuan's soul power sensed that the person who entered the room was Long Ziyan, he immediately perked up.

Senior Sister seemed to have come to him for dual cultivation. At this time, he couldn't care about studying any Gu formula. Put the Gu formula aside first. It's not too late to study it at any time. This matter is the top priority to do first. Nothing is as important as this matter.

Long Xuan immediately had insects on his brain, slapped his pen on the table, and pushed the door out of the secret room quickly.

Just after walking out of the secret room, he found that a large wooden barrel had appeared in the room at some point, filled with steaming hot water, and petals were floating on it.

After sensing that Long Xuan had come out, she didn't look back and said: "Take a bath first."

Still need to take a bath? Long Xuan was stunned. His anxious self was immediately extinguished half of his desire by the bath water, but since Long Ziyan loved cleanliness, he could only follow suit, helplessly taking off his clothes.

Long Ziyan turned her back at this time and walked out of the door slowly.

Long Xuan showed a wicked smile. They were already old husband and wife, how could she still be so shy? The two had already met frankly, where hadn't they seen?

He looked at the water surface filled with petals. The air was filled with floral fragrance. It was his first time taking a bath with this thing. Only the young girls of this world would throw petals into it when taking a bath.

Long Xuan smiled, but just as he was about to jump into the water to wash himself fragrant, his expression suddenly changed.

His Heavenly Mechanism Eye suddenly discovered countless ferocious small insects in the water, swimming back and forth in the water with bloodthirsty eyes. Looking at their appearance, he knew these small insects were harmful to the human body. Once these things ran into the body, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Long Xuan was instantly shocked into a cold sweat. Someone was actually putting Gu on him. Who on earth was it? A chill rose on his back instantly, and all impulses disappeared.

Heaven knows, he completely trusted Long Ziyan. The reason why he opened the Heavenly Mechanism Eye just now was entirely because he had already developed the habit.

Just now, scanning the water surface with the Heavenly Mechanism Eye was entirely a subconscious reaction of conditioned reflex. His brain had never thought about checking the bath water.

He didn't expect that the habit developed over many years allowed him to avoid a crisis again.

Long Xuan took a deep breath, staring at the small insects floating on the water surface, and gradually calmed down.

This matter absolutely couldn't be done by Long Ziyan. She had to lie beside him every day when he slept. There were too many opportunities to make a move, and it was impossible to use this method with greater exposure risk.

Then who on earth wanted to harm him? Long Xuan's eyes revealed a look of thought. After carefully studying the small insects in the water, his expression suddenly changed drastically, and his expression became extremely solemn.

He suddenly discovered an extremely terrifying thing. Long Ziyan couldn't see the group of small insects in the water at all, so she brought it to him. These small insects were so small that they couldn't be seen with the naked eye.

It was precisely because he had the Heavenly Mechanism Eye and carried a microscope with him that he could detect the insects in the water.

If it were someone else, I believe the vast majority of people wouldn't be able to see the insects in the water. Facing these micro-life system insect species, they would definitely fall into the trap.

That's right, those insects in the water were micro-life system insect species, and the quantity was extremely huge.

He didn't expect that besides himself, there were actually people in this world who could utilize micro-life system insect species. Long Xuan was completely shocked.

Sure enough, one cannot underestimate the people of this world. The people of this world might not be able to see the microscopic world at the atomic level, but that doesn't mean the people of this world cannot master the power of the microscopic world.

It was his own assumption, and he also underestimated the people of this world. Besides himself, there were also Gu Cultivators in this world who could utilize micro-insect species.

Long Xuan took a deep breath, suppressed the shock in his heart, and hurriedly ran to the residence of the Family Head. Something big was about to happen. He felt that this matter might not be targeting himself, but a big conspiracy against the entire Long Clan or even the entire Black Stone City.

He must notify the Family Head as soon as possible and let the clan make preparations in advance, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.

At the same time, outside the city.

Yan Pojun smashed the storage ring in public, and the things inside scattered all over the ground, but he didn't find the shadow of the Living Wood. Everyone couldn't help but frown.

"Actually not there? How many smoke bombs did this Luo Yu release? He was already dead, yet he still didn't find that Living Wood! Where on earth did he hide it?" Yan Pojun said with an ugly face.

"His people are already completely dead, right? I really can't think of who else he could hand the Living Wood to." In the crowd, a Soul Clan Gu King said.

"That's right, those two young men were his last manpower, but their realm was too low and they were shocked to death by the aftermath of the Gu King battle. These two people seem to have high status and might be two princes. Will their deaths here cause any trouble?"

At this time, the Dan Clan Gu King had a worried look on his face, frowned, and said.

Hearing this, the others also showed thoughtful expressions, their brows furrowing deeper and deeper.

Will the Great Yin Dynasty launch a retaliatory action because two princes died? Even sending troops to invade, who can say for sure?

However, this possibility absolutely cannot be ruled out. Everyone's face was covered in haze, and their mood sank to the bottom.

"Grass! What were they thinking, actually sending two Spirit Refining Stage chickens to perform such an important task, and their status happened to be princes. Are they deliberately trying to touch porcelain?" A Gu King cursed angrily.

"Damn it, it's really bad luck. Not finding the Living Wood, but instead getting into trouble. It's really eight lifetimes of bad luck. Since things have reached this point, we can't care about that much. Soldiers come to block, water comes to cover. If the Great Yin Dynasty dares to send troops to invade, then fight back. Anyway, all ten clans made a move just now, and no one can run." The Soul Clan Gu King shouted violently.

Yan Pojun showed a thoughtful expression and said calmly: "From now on, all clans should put aside conflicts. Even if there is a higher hatred, don't cause trouble for me in the next few years."

"Remember, once the Great Yin Dynasty wants to invade the Western Lands on a large scale, then provoking conflicts between clans in advance and consuming the power of each clan through civil war is the smartest way."

"We must guard against this hand. Once conflicts occur in the next few years, it must be a trick used by the Great Yin Dynasty. Restrain the people below for me. All similar matters will be handled by me. No one is allowed to make a big move for me, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Yan Pojun's expression became sharp, and he looked at the Long Clan and Bai Clan sides with sharp eyes.

He looked at the Dan Clan and Yao Clan sides again, then looked at the Soul Clan and Ghost Clan sides again, and then...

At this time, in the pavilion of the Family Head, Long Yuanshan was looking at Long Xuan with a kind smile.

"What's the matter with finding me so late? If you have something to say, just say it."

Facing this excellent junior, he didn't dare to be slow at all. Knowing that Long Xuan wanted to see him, he immediately put down everything in his hands and came to receive him.

Long Xuan nodded and said straight to the point: "Someone wants to harm me, actually putting Gu in my bath water. Take a look."

After the words fell, Long Xuan took the bucket of bath water out of the storage bag and placed it on the ground.

Hearing this, Long Yuanshan's aura changed immediately, releasing terrifying murderous intent from his eyes.

Long Xuan is now a key figure in researching the Dragon Blood Battle Gu and must never have any loss.

Someone actually dared to harm Long Xuan, letting the research plan of the Dragon Blood Battle Gu formula die in the womb, which was completely touching his reverse scale.

Long Yuanshan slapped the table heavily, furious and said: "Who on earth is it? The person who can put Gu on you here can only be an internal ghost. It is very likely that it was done by one of our own. How bold, actually daring to destroy the future hope of my clan."

"Rest assured, no matter who the person who made the move is, I will definitely punish them severely. Even if that person is a clan elder, I will definitely cut them down without mercy." Long Yuanshan released sharp murderous intent from his eyes.

He didn't dare to be slow and hurriedly ran to the bucket of water, staring wide-eyed at the water.

However, even if he almost stared his eyeballs out, he didn't see where the insects in Long Xuan's mouth were.

But he knew that Long Xuan couldn't joke with him about this kind of thing. No one would be so bored.

He had no doubts about Long Xuan's words. Since his eyes were not good, he directly reached his hand into the bath water.

However, he reached in with precautions. His entire arm was wrapped in spiritual power, forming a thick spirit armor.

The moment he reached his hand into the water, he immediately felt something crazily biting his spirit armor.

And this thing had sharp teeth. In just an instant, his spirit armor was actually bitten into a small hole.

Long Yuanshan's expression was shocked, and he hurriedly pulled his hand back. He was shocked into a cold sweat on his back. Fortunately, he reacted quickly. If he were a little slower, that thing would have broken his spirit armor and drilled into his body.

What on earth is this thing, actually so small that it can't be seen with the naked eye, and can have such terrifying power.

You know, he is a peak Spirit Sea expert. This thing can actually break the defense of a peak Spirit Sea expert instantly? What a joke!

Long Yuanshan's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly moved away from the bucket of water, taking several big steps back, as if there was great terror in the bucket of water. At this time, he was completely not calm.

This kind of insect is so small that it can't be seen with the naked eye at all. In front of this insect, anyone will fall into the trap, simply unsolvable. This method of killing invisibly is simply too terrifying. His face was even slightly pale.

"The person who put the Gu is probably not targeting you, but targeting our entire Long family, because this kind of insect can threaten Gu Kings and can make Gu Kings unaware."

Long Yuanshan's eyes suddenly released devouring light, his face was terrifying, and he suddenly shouted loudly to the door: "Come here, notify all clan elders to come to a meeting immediately, wake up all clan members, and now the whole clan immediately enters a level one alert state!"
