1843 Old Liang Family Residence, Song Yanru’s Miserable End
Fang Yu subconsciously turned his head in the direction of the sound and looked up to see large black masses flying out of a few side passages. There were too many of them, blocking out all the light.

At first, Fang Yu couldn’t see clearly, but Qi Hao and Lu Ningwen, who were on the side, saw them first and immediately shouted, “Sister-in-law, Sister-in-law, bugs, it’s bugs again! So many bugs!”

“Holy sh*t, Celestial… Celestial Master Chi, so… so many bugs!” Lu Ningwen also wailed.

Fang Yu, Qi Hao and Lu Ningwen screamed as their legs turned to jelly. They knew very well that if these bugs burrowed into their bodies, they might end up like Director Huang, Yun Yiyi and the others.

The three of them were so shocked that their faces turned pale and their bones turned cold as they shook non-stop.

When the rustling got closer and closer, the three of them subconsciously ran toward the river without thinking. Chi Shuyan could only stop Lu Ningwen, who was the slowest.

Chi Shuyan didn’t have time to care about the other two as she immediately shot large flames straight at the corpse bugs, which immediately sizzled and burned.

Chi Shuyan’s face was calm. A large number of corpse bugs flew over, and she set all of them

The hissing of the corpse bugs was still very loud as more followed suit. Still, the bugs were like humans in that they sought benefits but avoided harm. Gradually, the corpse bugs no longer dared to rush into the fire, and instead fled into the passageways on the side.

Lu Ningwen had just heaved a sigh of relief when he suddenly recalled that Song Yanru was still inside the cave. Thinking of what might happen to her, Lu Ningwen shuddered violently.

Chi Shuyan didn’t know what Lu Ningwen was thinking at that moment. She frowned and stared at the murky river in front of her. She told Haozi and Fang Yu, who had entered the water. to quickly get out.

For some reason, her right eyelid kept twitching as she looked at the very calm surface of the murky river. “The two of you, come up quickly!”

“Sister-in-law, Sister-in-law, I’m… scared… scared of those bugs!” Qi Hao wouldn’t get out no matter what. He had almost died under these bugs last time. He was now deeply traumatized by them, so how could he be willing to get out?

Fang Yu was already very afraid of bugs, let alone insects that could burrow into people’s bodies and gnaw on their flesh. He also shook his head violently to indicate that he felt safer in the river.

Chi Shuyan’s face didn’t look good. She was about to say something, when she heard an incomparably mournful and scalp-numbing howl from the cave not far away. The scream was as tragic as could be, and sounded worse than dying. The tragic scream shocked Lu Ningwen, Fang Yu, and Qi Hao so much that their minds went blank.

“What’s going on?” Fang Yu and Qi Hao couldn’t help but shout.

Lu Ningwen couldn’t help but be curious. He subconsciously tried to look inside the cave, and then saw the most terrifying scene in his life.

A dense mass of corpse bugs had pounced on Song Yanru; almost all of them had burrowed forcefully into her body, which exploded with blood. Then, Song Yanru’s body suddenly bulged with thousands of bumps, including on her cheeks and forehead. Song Yan’s face twisted with pain as she stared in horror at her bulging stomach, which made her look like she was six or seven months pregnant.
On a closer look, there were things in her bulging stomach which squirmed non-stop. Song Yanru was in so much pain that she howled non-stop.

Moreover, as the corpse bugs continued to burrow into her abdomen, her stomach grew bigger and bigger, directly tearing her blouse open. In the end, her stomach couldn’t take it anymore and burst open, releasing a large swarm of bloody corpse bugs, which immediately burrowed back in.

The last thing Lu Ningwen saw was Song Yanru’s expression; she looked like she had died with remaining grievances.

He was so scared that his legs turned to jelly and he fell to his knees. His face was deathly pale and green.

As soon as he made a sound, the corpse bugs that had been gnawing on Song Yanru’s flesh inside immediately flew up and suddenly lunged at him again.

The corpse bugs immediately glowed golden and were burned to ash when they hit the barrier.

“Are you okay?” Chi Shuyan looked inside and saw that Song Yanru had already been gnawed into a bloody pulp by the corpse bugs; all that remained was a large pool of blood and bones, which were densely covered in bugs. Even though Chi Shuyan had guts, she couldn’t help but feel disgusted and wanted to puke when she saw this scene.

Lu Ningwen tried to reply, but before he could finish, he retched again.

“What’s going on? What’s going on?!” Fang Yu crawled ashore and hurried to Lu Ningwen’s side to ask, but when he saw the tragic scene in the cave, he didn’t have time to say anything before he felt dizzy and immediately retched. As he retched, he pointed in disbelief at the bloody mess inside. “Is… is that… Song… Song… Yanru?”

Qi Hao, who had been in the water, was also very curious about Fang Yu’s shocked reaction. He called out to Chi Shuyan, “Sister-in-law, what on earth happened?”

Chi Shuyan ignored Haozi’s words. Instead, she heard a very strange sound, which seemed to be coming from the river.

Wait, from the river?

Chi Shuyan narrowed her eyes and immediately looked sharply at the river, only to see something approaching Haozi in the murky water. Chi Shuyan’s face changed drastically. Qi Hao still didn’t sense it. Seeing that his sister-in-law was ignoring him, he simply asked Fang Yu, “Brother Fang, what on earth happened?”
