Chapter 640 - 0642: Blood-colored Eyes
Chu Ge squinted his eyes, pulled out a handkerchief, wrapped up the stone, and set it aside, then took out a silver needle threaded with silk to sew up Qian Youquan’s wounds.
After the stitching, Qian Youquan’s complexion had greatly improved, no longer as pale as before, and his calf, after being pale for a while, seemed to be replenished with fresh blood and gradually regained a healthy color.
Gently extracting the silver needles from Qian Youquan’s body and neck, Chu Ge put away the needles and began to study the thing absorbed by the stone in his handkerchief.
The "stone" he held was only stone-like in appearance; in fact, it was a creature from the deep sea, which possessed a spiritual nature that could detect living things or parasites within the human body.
However, this creature was usually extremely lazy, reluctant to move, always curled up in a round shape, so one might mistake it for a stone upon a cursory glance.
Previously, when Chu Ge placed it on Qian Youquan’s leg, it detected something inside the leg and moved in response to that object.
Not only could it sense objects, but it could also devour things smaller than itself, thus the stone now appeared black because it had swallowed the thing inside Qian Youquan’s leg.
After a close examination, Chu Ge condensed a flame in his hand, a fire not ordinary in nature, for anything scorched by it would never recover.
He picked up the stone, gently squeezed it, and the stone automatically expelled the black substance it contained. Chu Ge wastes no time in tossing the black substance into the flames, and with a sizzling noise, Chu Ge knew that thing was destroyed.
On closer inspection, he discovered that it was a Gu Worm, exclusive to the Black Witch Sect. But given the severe damage the sect had suffered, it was unlikely to have the energy to wreak havoc again.
