Chapter 511 Returning
The old figure nodded upon hearing this, "Indeed, it is quite rare that we can get rid of so many pests this time thanks to Li Qian."
"I believe that after this ambush, the cult members will be more cautious when attacking Li Qian."
After hearing this, Grandma Gu shook her head helplessly, "This is both a good thing and a bad thing."
"The good thing is that the number of attacks will definitely decrease, but the bad thing is...when an attack occurs, the intensity will definitely be far greater than before."
The old figure thought for a moment, and then continued: "The turbulent times are both a test and an opportunity. I believe that Li Qian is the hero of this troubled time."
"But he hasn't grown up yet, so we still need to support him." Grandma Gu said, "You should know better than me what a legendary trainer means to the school."
"Yes, that is the true heritage of our school." The old figure echoed, and then changed the subject, "Let's go and take a look at the arrangements elsewhere. There should be more achievements than these."
As soon as the words fell, the next moment, the figures of both of them disappeared from the spot.
……
In the back mountain, inside the dragon-patterned woods, Li Qian and Li Lanying were just about to leave when a loud bird cry sounded.
Li Qian looked up at the sky and soon saw a familiar figure descending. It was the Flame Dragon Eagle.
The person standing on the Flame Dragon Sculpture was none other than Wu You.
Looking at the Flame Dragon Eagle rushing over, Li Qian shook his head helplessly, "Why are you the only one here?"
In fact, Wu You arrived quite quickly, but the battle here ended even faster, so she only saw corpses all over the ground.
"I received your message for help and left immediately." Wu You was relieved to see that Li Qian was safe and sound.
Li Qian was quite touched. Although the woman from the Wing Clan was rude in her words and habitually confronted him, her concern for him was genuine.
I was just a little impulsive, and I rushed over subconsciously. Li Qian exhaled and reminded me, "Don't be so reckless in the future."
Facing Wu You's puzzled look, Li Qian continued, "I sent you a signal for help, which at least means that I can't deal with the enemy."
"If it's an enemy I can't deal with, you coming here will just be another messenger." Li Qian continued: "So if you encounter this kind of thing in the future, don't rush over rashly. It's the wisest thing to do to seek help from a strong person nearby."
Wu You listened to Li Qian's warning. Although he had an unhappy expression on his face, he was actually very happy in his heart.
Li Qian's words at least proved that he cared about himself.
After giving a few warnings, Li Qian introduced the two women to each other, and then told Wu You what he had just experienced.
When Wu You heard that they were attacked by a Holy Spirit-level blood-filled insect queen, his heart suddenly tightened.
This time, it was thanks to the secret support of the seniors in the school that the enemy was lured out. If not, Li Qian, the bait, would have been eaten by the enemy without leaving even a trace.
So Wu You realized that although Li Qian said it lightly and it seemed that there was no danger at all, in fact, it was not the case and the risk factor was still quite high.
It also made her more alert. This kind of thing would definitely happen again in the future. The cultists in the dark would never let it go.
So she had to be more cautious in the future. At this moment, she had actually put herself into the role of Li Qian's bodyguard.
After putting away their pets, the three returned to school. As soon as they entered, they discovered something unusual.
It was obvious that the school had also experienced turmoil. In the sky, there were pets flying around. They seemed to be carrying students, injured and unconscious students. Li Qian knew what was going on and couldn't help but frowned.
Judging from the situation, quite a few students were injured. From this, it can also be seen that there are quite a few students who were parasitized by the offspring of the insect in "Mary Galloway's" body.
If it weren't for this raid, these students would have been directly exposed because of the sudden death of the blood-swine worm queen, and might have caused greater harm in the future.
"The evil cult is no longer a minor issue." Li Qian looked up at the pets flying in the air and muttered to himself.
Li Lanying also echoed, "We must deal the most severe blow to them. We can't let them continue to spread and harm others like this."
The three of them talked for a few words and then fell into silence.
After sending Wu You back to Secret Realm No. 3 to continue presiding over the affairs of the Jade Research Base, and sending Li Lanying to the door of the girls' dormitory, Li Qian did not waste time and went straight back to the dormitory of Xian Yayuan.
……
At night, Li Qian sensed that Lu Tianjiao had returned and sent him a message.
A moment later, Lu Tianjiao leaped over from the balcony next door.
"It's so late, why did you call me here? What's the matter?" Lu Tianjiao didn't notice Li Qian's expression. He sat down and complained while asking, "I don't know what happened in the school today. It was a mess and many teachers were busy."
Li Qian looked at Lu Tianjiao, his expression somewhat downcast, "I know what happened."
Hearing this, Lu Tianjiao immediately became interested, "You know what happened, then tell me quickly!"
Li Qian sighed and said slowly, "A blood-gutting worm has sneaked into the school, and its strength has reached the terrifying Holy Spirit level."
"The seniors in the school planned to ambush and kill this Holy Spirit-level blood-gut mother."
"The mother blood-swallowed worm died, and the daughter blood-swallowed worms parasitic in many students died as well. The students who were hit fainted. Because there were so many people and the outbreak was concentrated, this caused chaos..."
"I see!" Lu Tianjiao was suddenly enlightened when he heard this, and then he asked, "By the way, you asked me to come here not just because of this matter, right?"
After spending more than a semester together, Lu Tianjiao had a relatively good understanding of Li Qian, so he asked directly.
Li Qian gave a bitter smile and continued, "I also participated in this matter. In fact, I was part of the plan of our school's seniors."
He looked at Lu Tianjiao, and asked word by word, "Do you know whose body the blood worm mother is parasitic in?"
Lu Tianjiao shook his head. After a moment, he thought of something and froze again. "Could it be..."
Li Qian nodded, sighed, and spit out a name helplessly, "Mary Galloway!"
"Where is she?" Although he had roughly guessed the result, Lu Tianjiao still spoke up immediately and asked for confirmation.
Li Qian shook his head. "That's why I asked you to come here tonight. After all, you know each other and are from the same place."
"As for her, you've actually guessed it, right?" After a moment of silence, Li Qian uttered five words in a low voice, "She...can't come back!"
