Chapter 888 - 635: Wu Bayi_2
Xiang Beifei immediately took the moonprint Gu worm and examined it closely. Fortunately, the soul power of the Gu worm had not been completely depleted.
"Is this the moonprint of Xiao Houzi?" Jiang Shan asked eagerly.
"It should be," Xiang Beifei replied.
"Can Xiao Houzi still... still be saved?" Uncle Liang asked.
"I’ll try."
He originally wanted to try again later, but the soul power attached to the moonprint was gradually fading; every minute of delay would weaken Xiao Houzi’s soul power.
However, this wasn’t a major issue. The power of Return to the Original State instantly spread from Xiang Beifei to the moonprint Gu worm, as he had to restore the soul power that had been devoured by the moonprint Gu worm.
The moonprint Gu worm had no way to resist Xiang Beifei’s "Return to the Original State." It returned the soul power in the same way it had devoured it.
But Xiang Beifei didn’t restore too much of the soul; he kept it at the state before Xiao Houzi died. Otherwise, over-restoration would lead to the moonprint Gu worm’s aura being too weak to coordinate with that body.
Xiang Beifei waved his hand again, and Xiao Houzi’s body appeared in midair. He transplanted the moonprint Gu worm onto Xiao Houzi’s wrist!
These unformed moonprint Gu worms cannot cultivate independently and must rely on absorbing the host’s physical strength. When Xiang Beifei transplanted the moonprint Gu worm onto Xiao Houzi, it immediately burrowed into Xiao Houzi’s arm eagerly, like a fish returning to the sea.
When the moonprint Gu worm entered Xiao Houzi’s wrist, it realized this was a dead body, unfit for parasitism, and wanted to escape. But Xiang Beifei directly blocked its retreat, forcing it to accept the body.
