One person: Orochi, starting with Feng Baobao's Eight Heroes.

"Knife kick!"

Chen Qi's eyes narrowed, and his long right leg, like a compass, instantly drew another silver crescent, slicing the little green snake in two from head to tail.

"What a ferocious Gu creature! My aura actually aroused its ferocity. This is the first time I've encountered such a situation!"

Chen Qi raised an eyebrow.

There's one more inside!

Feng Baobao, who had been standing beside Chen Qi watching him coldly kill someone without reacting, suddenly spoke up.

"I noticed that too!"

Chen Qi nodded slightly.

"Ha~!"

As a wisp of dark green miasma rushed in, a figure instantly burst out from within, striking Chen Qi with a palm strike.

"Shua~!"

The silver full moon reappeared, and Chen Qi, without warning, launched his 'blade kick' again, splitting the man in two.

"Baby, be careful of these miasma!"

After inhaling a little, Chen Qi found that it had no effect on him, so he spoke up to remind Feng Baobao.

"It's alright. This miasma is just pure poison, not a living Gu. As long as you don't hold your breath or inhale it, there won't be any problems!"

Feng Baobao is usually a naive person, but when faced with danger, she always instinctively makes the right judgment.

"These two are the lookouts at the entrance. Let's charge in now. I'll handle them all. Leave no survivors!"

Chen Qi reminded him again.

"know!"

Feng Baobao nodded.

"go!"

The two instantly transformed into azure light and shot towards the valley.

15 minutes later

Inside a dimly lit cave

Is this the woman you're looking for?

Feng Baobao and Chen Qi stood in front of a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl dressed as a Miao ethnic holy maiden, surrounded by more than a dozen corpses cut in half with smooth, clean cuts.

"Baby, do you know what I'm going to do?"

Chen Qi looked at the little girl who had a blank expression and seemed oblivious to everything happening around her, and asked her calmly.

“I know, you need to feed her blood. I can sense that your power has reached a bottleneck after meeting Grandpa Zhang Huaiyi, and you need a breakthrough!”

It's normal for Feng Baobao, who is related to Chen Qi by blood, to be able to sense Chen Qi's condition.

"This is not a safe place. Let's take her away first!"

Chen Qidao.

"This little girl has a lot of Gu poison inside her body, and it's still overflowing. I'm afraid I can't touch her!"

Feng Baobao said astutely.

"I come!"

Chen Qi slowly reached out and gently lifted the girl's clothes, revealing her festering abdomen, and then pressed his other hand directly onto it.

"...Okay, it's alright!"

Chen Qi carefully sensed it and found that the overflowing primordial Gu could not break through his Great Serpent God Body, so he put down the girl's clothes with peace of mind.

Then he picked the girl up in his arms.

Throughout the entire process, the girl did not resist in the slightest, and did not even utter a sound.

Chapter Nineteen: Two Gu-Body Saint Children?

"Let's go!"

Chen Qi, holding the girl in his arms, and together with Feng Baobao, transformed into a beam of dark blue light and shot out of the cave, heading in one direction.

2 hours later

A cave

"Come on, child, eat!"

Chen Qi brought the scalding hot blood in his hand to the girl's lips. Without any resistance, the girl slowly opened her mouth and ate the hot but not scalding, even sweet, blood of the giant snake, then swallowed it.

"Uh..."

A dozen seconds later, the girl, who had been like a walking corpse, suddenly narrowed her dark green pupils, then slowly closed her eyes and fell into Chen Qi's arms without making a sound.

"I hope it works..."

Chen Qi gently placed the girl on a rock, but accidentally snagged her clothes again, revealing her festering body.

"If she succeeds, will her condition improve?"

Feng Baobao curiously leaned over and asked.

"Yes, if we succeed, we'll have another family member!"

Chen Qi nodded.

"Yes, my fourth brother once told me that there's no need to dwell on the past. A happy and fulfilling family can actually be created by oneself, just like those orphans. They are orphans now, but in the future they will create a new family and be surrounded by children and grandchildren when they get old!"

Feng Baobao said.

"Really... No wonder so many women like Si'er!"

Chen Qi's gaze drifted, as if he were recalling his past life.

In his previous life, Chen Qi was born into an ordinary family with ordinary parents and ordinary grandparents. They weren't wealthy, but the family was very warm and loving.

In his previous life, Chen Qi had heard his father say that his grandparents were orphans, but they started a new family and had children, who then started their own families.

During the Chinese New Year, the whole family, more than a dozen people, gathered together in a lively atmosphere.

"Baby, what are you thinking?"

Chen Qi looked at Feng Baobao.

"I also want to have my own home and family. Since my family is gone, let's make one ourselves!"

Feng Baobao said.

"Hmm, that's ambitious. What about your family from before? Do you still need to look for them?"

Chen Qi asked again.

"Of course we have to look for it, otherwise we'll always feel like something's missing from our heads!"

Feng Baobao said without hesitation.

"Hehe, you seem different today?"

Chen Qi suddenly laughed when he heard what Feng Baobao said.

"How are they different?"

Feng Baobao asked.

"It just doesn't feel as silly anymore!"

"You guys always think I'm silly, but most of the time I'm incredibly shrewd!"

"Yeah..."

. . . . . . .

at the same time

Inside another hidden cave

"Unexpectedly, the primordial Gu within these two Gu-body Saint Children has reached a level far exceeding our expectations. Before letting them devour each other, we have no choice but to temporarily separate them to digest the current level of 'Gu Body Technique'!"

"The one who survives the final act of mutual devouring will reach a new level!!!"

A man dressed in a shaman's robe looked excitedly at the girl sitting cross-legged in front of him, who was also dressed in the attire of a Miao holy woman.

Like the girl Chen Qi took away, this girl sat there motionless, like a walking corpse.

suddenly

"No, something bad has happened! Something bad has happened!!!"

A person rushed in from outside in a panic.

"What is it? These last few days are crucial; we mustn't disturb the prospective saints!"

The man in the witch's robe gave a soft shout.

"Master, Master, something terrible has happened! The base over there has been breached! Everyone guarding it has been cut in half!!!"

The visitor said in a panic.

"What?! Where is that prospective saint?"

The man in the shaman's robe was startled and immediately demanded an explanation.

"No, they're gone! Everyone guarding that base over there is dead, all of them! Not a single one alive, not even a single intact corpse!!!"

The visitor was in tears, his eyes filled with undisguised terror.

"How could this happen? Is it some kind of conspiracy? They've started paying attention to us lately, but they should have been able to hold out for a while longer!!"

The man in the witch's robe gritted his teeth, his face full of resentment.

"No, we don't know. We don't even know who did it. It happened so silently. All we saw were dismembered corpses scattered all over the ground. The wounds were smooth and clean. It must have been done by a top-tier swordsman!"

"Moreover, according to the on-site investigation, we had already been there for more than an hour before we discovered it!"

The person who came said urgently.

"No, we must arrange an evacuation!"

The man in the witch's robe quickly calmed down.

"Then, what about the Gu-body Holy Child?"

The visitor asked.

"One of them is enough. From now on, she will be our Gu-body Holy Child..."

The man in the witch's robe looked at the girl beside him who showed no reaction.

"Yes, I understand... I'll go and notify them to move right away..."

. . . . . .

Here

"coming!"

Chen Qi and Feng Baobao, who had been waiting quietly, suddenly spoke at the same time.

Both of them felt a special connection with the unconscious girl, a magical connection based on blood.

"Looks like it worked, baby. I need to prepare to face the impact of the serpent's will. Don't disturb me!"

Chen Qi immediately sat down cross-legged and began to focus his mind.

Having lived in the world of supernatural beings for so many years, Chen Qi has been slowly learning the methods of cultivating Qi, although it has little use for his 'Great Serpent Power'.

However, they learned some of the methods used by the supernatural beings, such as tempering their minds, emptying their spirits, and honing their power.

"Okay, I won't make a sound!"

Feng Baobao quickly took two steps back, staring intently at Chen Qi and the girl over there... no, her new family...

suddenly
