Chapter 1336 - 1386: Na Yi’s Grievance
"However, the fact that you can independently refine the Worm is truly remarkable. Such a thing hasn’t been encountered for countless years, only mentioned in some of our ancient legends where someone managed to refine the Worm."
Contrary to Li Yifei’s disappointment, Bunong was extremely delighted.
Li Yifei forced a bitter smile and said, "But it’s useless. I can’t refine Na Yi’s Life-bound Worm, and even if I could, I wouldn’t do it now. Doing so would be equivalent to killing Na Yi."
"Let’s try again. Earlier, I merely implanted the most basic Worm."
"You want to try again? What if I can’t refine it?" Li Yifei jumped in fright. He had genuinely developed a deep fear of Worm Poison, with the Life-bound Worm already leaving him mentally exhausted.
"Don’t worry, don’t worry. The Worm I place will definitely be one that I can remove. Rest assured." Bunong looked at Li Yifei as if he had found a rare treasure, his eyes gleaming brightly.
"Fine then, let’s give it a try." Li Yifei shook his head, but curiosity stirred within him regardless. If he truly could refine most Worms, he wouldn’t feel as much pressure facing practitioners of Worm Technique in the future.
Seeing her father about to implant a Worm into Li Yifei again, Na Yi was startled. She immediately jumped up and positioned herself protectively in front of Li Yifei, anxiously shouting at her father.
Bunong hurriedly explained with a gleeful smile, but Na Yi kept shaking her head, clearly distrusting Bunong’s explanation.
Li Yifei observed Na Yi’s protective stance and felt a warmth in his heart. Despite knowing each other for less than a day and sharing no real emotional bond, Na Yi was fully committed to him, something Li Yifei had no doubts about.
