"It's done!" Little Grass exclaimed, overjoyed. "Don't stop, I'll keep pulling. It seems the primordial witch power has had an effect on the Gu worms. Gu magic is originally a kind of witchcraft, after all."
A tiny golden Gu worm appeared in Lin Yao's palm. At the same time, Lin Yao felt another mysterious energy being pulled out along with the grass. This energy was very weak, but it clearly intertwined with his witch power and returned to his arm, disappearing in an instant.
"Dika, are you still going to keep these 'Thousand Mountain Gu'?" Lin Yao supported Dika's shoulder with his left hand and pushed her slightly away from his chest. He opened his right palm, revealing two intertwined golden worms wriggling and wriggling, full of vitality.
"Ah!" Dika suddenly felt a void in his heart. Before he could figure out why, he saw this amazing scene and became excited. "Alang, you got them out?! That's great! That's great! That's great..."
Having forgotten everything, Dika murmured as if repeating three words, tears welling up in her eyes again, washing two new streaks across her dirty face.
Dika didn't want to know how Lin Yao had done it; she was already very satisfied with the result. The culprit behind all of this was the pair of "Thousand Mountain Gu" worms. If it weren't for them, Alang wouldn't have been forced to flee, the clan leader wouldn't have sent people to capture him, and Baka and some other Alangs and Uncles wouldn't have been killed.
All of this was because he, a good-for-nothing, had cultivated a pair of "Thousand Mountain Gu". Dika was filled with regret, regretting why he had insisted on trying to raise Gu in the past. If he hadn't done so, his life would not have changed.
The naive Dika still judged the whole thing with the most basic worldview and values. She was unaware of some secrets, so she took the blame for the whole thing on herself, but directly ignored why the Jinka clan chief had sent people to kidnap Lin Yao in the first place. Her narrow knowledge and life experience led her to draw the wrong conclusion.
"Dika, do you still want these 'Thousand Mountain Gu'?" Lin Yao continued to ask. He couldn't decide the fate of these Gu worms. In his opinion, Gu worms with such abnormal effects should be humanely destroyed and not kept to continue harming people.
"Ah!" Dika suddenly woke up again, lowered her head sheepishly, and said in a voice as faint as a mosquito buzzing.
Dika suddenly felt a little shy and sad. She was shy because she realized she had just thrown herself into Alang's arms, and sad because now that the "Thousand Mountain Gu" was gone, she would never hear from Alang again. Alang was about to leave the forest and return to the beautiful city of Chengdu, and she might never see him again in her life.
Suddenly, Dika, who was hiding to the side, saw a familiar figure in his field of vision. It was Baka.
Overwhelmed with grief, Dika collapsed and fainted.
Lin Yao sighed, tore off a sleeve from his skirt and pants, tied it into a knot to make a simple cloth bag, and handed it to Yi Fei beside him, "Let's take this Gu worm and Dika back together, and go home."
Yes, we go home, back to our own home. No matter how beautiful the mountains and forests are, or how kind the people are, they don't truly belong to us. Our own home is the most beautiful place.
Now that there were no outsiders present, Yi Potian approached Lin Yao with a grave expression. "Sir, I heard that Jiang Chengen is here and even chased after you. He's now..."
Looking up at Yi Potian, Lin Yao smiled faintly, "Elder, there's no need to mention him anymore. There will be no Jiang Chengen anymore."
Looking at Lin Yao washing himself in the mountain stream, Yi Potian's eyes widened, and his mouth remained open for a long time.
What did you just hear?!
This person doesn't exist anymore?!
A Heavenly-level expert just...gone like that?

It was October, a golden autumn month. The weather was clear and crisp, and in this season of harvest, Lin Yao returned home.
Lin Yao took the highway back to Chengdu, which was faster. If he had to detour through Changsha, it would not only be a longer journey and take more time, but it would also cost more money.
People who do that kind of thing must be mentally unstable. Lin Yao certainly wouldn't be like that, so he directly got into the Land Rover Range Rover 4.4 with a Hunan license plate that the Yi family had somehow acquired.
From the envious glances he received at various gas stations, Lin Yao knew that this road trip was still a show-off trip, and the cost was no cheaper than traveling through Changsha. However, he accepted it with a clear conscience.
Having experienced more than a month of idyllic life and faced life-or-death situations, Lin Yao's attitude towards these illusory things was no longer the same as before.
As long as I'm alive and free, who cares about showing off?
Add your own fuel and let others envy you!
This Land Rover is a real gas guzzler! It consumes fuel faster than a person sweats, and it can outrun the fuel consumption of dozens of people drinking water at the same time. It's truly a global energy killer.
This road king SUV is luxurious and comfortable, and it was specially arranged by Yi Potian to calm Lin Yao down. The feeling of sitting in a tank really made Lin Yao like it very much, and he even asked to drive it himself.
Since his father, Luo Jimin, was not a self-made millionaire, Lin Yao was naturally not a second-generation rich kid. He wanted to be a self-made millionaire and have that feeling of being in control of everything.
With the entire incident concluded, Lin Yao, having re-entered human society, felt a renewed drive to strive for success. Only by becoming a master could he live a life without regrets.
Yi Yang and Yi Shui, two top-tier Earth-level experts, led most of the Yi family members back to the Daika tribe to handle the aftermath, and then went directly back to Yanji. Yi Potian personally led Yi Dao, Yi Fei, Yi An, Yi Gong, and others, bypassing the Daika tribe's valley to return to human society and escort Lin Yao home.
The Grand Elder had many important matters to discuss with Lin Yao, such as the gains from this trip that Lin Yao mentioned, the gains that could help the Yi family members improve their strength, and some questions that had been weighing on his mind.
"gentlemen."
Along a scenic national highway, Lin Yao and the others had just finished relieving themselves by the roadside and seemed to be in a very good mood. Yi Potian seized the opportunity to bring up a question that had been weighing on his mind, thinking that bringing it up now would probably not upset Lin Yao.
“Jiang Chengen is a Heaven-level expert. If he gets the chance, it will be very difficult to defend against him.” Yi Potian spoke somewhat indirectly, unlike his usual straightforward style. “Now that we’ve already broken ties with the Jiang family, I’m worried…”
Lin Yao smiled, thinking to himself that it was fortunate that Yi Potian had held back for three days before mentioning Jiang Chengen. He was probably afraid of provoking him.
With a smile, Lin Yao turned his head to look at Yi Potian and answered concisely, "He's dead. He was eaten clean by wild beasts, leaving only his two shoes."
"How is this possible?!" Yi Potian's eyes widened, his face clearly showing disbelief. "Heavenly level!"
