abbed Chi Ziqi's collar and roared frantically."Mr. Chi, tell me, what's going on""Third Young Master, please don't be so hasty. Let me go first," Chi Qi said in a panicked voice.Zheng Huayang took a...Ye Bufan said, "But it will be very dangerous for you to follow me."

His current enemy is the Shangguan family, and taking such a young girl with him is indeed very dangerous.

"I'm not afraid of danger, as you can see, I'm very capable and can help you. Anyone who messes with Little Brother, I'll kill them."

The girl, speaking softly, walked forward and took hold of Ye Bufan's arm, shaking it gently while she pleaded with him, "Little Brother, please take me with you. You can't just leave a young woman like me homeless."

"This..."

Ye Bufan felt very sympathetic towards this girl. Forgetting her own name and origins was indeed a painful thing.

"Alright, first answer me a few questions, and then I'll decide if you come with me."

After all, this is Xiangxi. It's important to first figure out the other person's identity.

What if this girl is from the Shangguan family I could clearly feel that she had parasites on her body when treating her.

The girl readily said, "Okay, little brother, you can ask me anything. I'll definitely tell you if I know."

Ye Bufan asked, “Do you remember your last name”

The girl shook her head, a wistful look on her face, and said, "I don't remember. I don't know why, but I can't recall anything that has to do with me. Things that have nothing to do with me, though, I remember perfectly."

As for this, Ye Bufan wasn't surprised. Amnesia is like this, generally what's lost is the part one considers most important.

He asked again, "Are you from Xiangxi then"

The girl nodded and said, "It probably is. I remember the terrain and place names here very well, and I know a lot about local things."

Ye Bufan said, "What kind of people can raise Gu worms here"

He had dealt with the people from the Shangguan family before. Shangguan Hongling and Shangguan Hongxia were both women who also practiced raising insects, but they were much uglier compared to this girl in front of him.

The reason I ask this is to confirm if all the women who practice Gu are from the Shangguan family.

"That's too much," the girl said. "In our Xiangxi region, a lot of women know how to raise poisonous insects. It's not that difficult."

Ye Bufan asked, "What about the major sects"

This woman's skill has reached the peak of the Profound Realm, she shouldn't be an ordinary girl from a common family.

"Even the big factions split into two groups for me, one is Gu Yi's faction and the other is the Shangguan family."

Actually, the Gu Wu clan is the authentic school of Gu sorcery, passed down from the ancient deity Chi You.

It was originally a very upright magical art, capable of healing people through insect venom. It's just a pity that when it was passed down later, many people used it for evil purposes, so everyone would talk about the changing colors of Gu sorcery.

The girl said, "The Shangguan family's inheritance isn't authentic Gu sorcery. That's why the women who practice Gu in the Shangguan family are all hideous, because they use their own flesh and blood to feed those Gu worms."

In contrast, the Gu One Sect is different. People who refine Gu worms look no different from normal people.

Upon hearing this, Ye Bufan immediately understood.

This girl before me is so beautiful, she must not be from the Shangguan family.

Since he wasn't an enemy, he didn't mind having another companion familiar with the local customs and people.

Since the Shangguan family has lured themselves to Xiangxi, they must be trying every means possible to find their whereabouts.

A lone person is easily spotted. Having a local as a companion would provide better cover.

"Thinking this through, he said, “Alright then, you stay with me from now on. When your memory returns, you can leave.”

"That's great, little brother, thank you."

The girl suddenly became extremely excited, tightly clutching Ye Bufan's arm as if she had grasped her only support.

"You need a name, you can't go on without one," Ye Bufan said.

The girl raised her face and smiled, saying to him, "Little brother, then you give me a name."

Ye Bufan looked at her slightly chubby cheeks and said, "How about Little Moon"

"The name 'Little Moon' sounds pretty nice, but it would be better with a surname."

Ye Bufan said, "You can just choose your surname. I don't know the customs here."

The girl said, "There are many girls in our Xiangxi Miao Village surnamed Long. So I will be called Long Xiaoyue from now on, and my nickname will be Xiaoyue."

"Okay, that's a nice name." Ye Bufan said, "Little Moon, what are you doing running all the way to the mountains to pick those Xuan Yin Zhu fruits Are you planning on using them for medicine"

Long Xiaoyue said: "It's not for medicine, I want to feed my baby. That thing can make my gu worms advance."

After she finished speaking, a purple beetle appeared in the palm of her hand.

"Little brother, this is my natal worm. Don't be afraid, it won't harm you unless I command it."

Ye Bufan carefully examined the purple beetle. The little thing gave him a faint sense of threat. "You said the Xuan Yin Zhu Guo would be good for your natal insect"

"Yeah, as long as I eat one of those fruits, my parasitic worm can be promoted to the level of a heavenly parasite."

Long Xiaoyue said with regret, "It's a pity that the two giant snakes were too powerful. I didn't get even a single fruit."

Ye Bufan asked, "Is Tian Gu very powerful"

Of course, insects are also graded, just like warriors. They are divided into four levels: heaven, earth, profound, and yellow.

The Heavenly Gu is the highest level. Even with so many people in the Shangguan family who specialize in refining Gu, no one has ever managed to refine a Heavenly Gu.

Hearing her words, Ye Bufan was even more certain that she wasn't from the Shangguan family. With a flick of his wrist, a red Xuan Yin Zhu fruit appeared in his palm.

"Here you go."

Since it's an ally, of course you have to do your best to improve their cultivation. The stronger Little Moon gets, the better it is for me now.

"Wow, brother! You're so amazing! You even managed to grab this fruit from inside that big snake's mouth!"

Upon seeing the Profound Yin Scarlet Fruit, Little Moon's face was filled with excitement and admiration.

She then said, "But, these fruits are very precious, I can't take them."

Although her eyes lingered on the fruit with reluctance, her tone was very firm, clearly showing she wasn't a greedy person.

Ye Bufan said, "Just take it. I managed to steal three in total, one was used to refine pills, and the other one, this one, is for you."

"Really Little brother, then I thank you so much."

Long Xiaoyue, having said this, took the Xuan Yin Jujube. She then summoned her natal worm.

The purple beetle shrieked with delight upon seeing the fruit, clearly very excited.

Long Xiaoyue said, "Eat it. This was given to you by the little brother."

After receiving the command, the beetle immediately pounced on the Xuan Yin Zhu Guo.

Then something strange happened. The beetle, which was only the size of a fingernail, was dwarfed by the Xuan Yin Zhu Guo, which was much larger than an egg.

But the little beetle ate the fruit clean, leaving not even a trace in the blink of an eye.

After swallowing the Xuan Yin Zhu fruit, the Gu worm lay motionless on Long Xiaoyue's palm. Then, its color began to change slowly, transforming from a simple purple to a rainbow of hues.

After about ten minutes, Long Xiaoyue's natal gu worm completely transformed into a seven-colored beetle.

"Great, little brother, my darling has finally advanced to become a Heavenly Gu." smiled faintly: "Even if the space is bigger, what does it matter We can only live in a small place for our whole lives. For example, I have lived in Tianlang City since I was a child and have never...
