The Soldier King Becomes a Useless Little Girl

Chapter 1066 - 1061: The New Summoning

One person, one ghost, one sphere, and one bird all looked toward the proud Corpse Leech Emperor.

"Well, it’s a long story."

The Corpse Leech King shook its head.

Jiu Jiu Jiu~

Rong Qiu let out a couple of threatening calls.

The fleshy body of the Corpse Leech King trembled.

"Those aren’t Water Spirits at all, they are Sniffle Leeches, also known as Water Spirit Leeches. Their forms can change, looking just like Water Spirits. Inside the big bird, there are about five or six hundred Sniffle Leeches. Fortunately, we discovered them early; otherwise, if the essence within was depleted, it would be doomed."

"So the reason why the mountain wildlife died so suddenly is due to these Sniffle Leeches? How did they enter the Xuan Bird’s body?"

Xin Lin also heard of such bizarre spiritual insects for the first time.

"It’s quite simple. Sniffle Leeches can enter the body through water sources and excrement, among others. If the big bird consumed prey containing Sniffle Leeches, it would also be infected. However, Sniffle Leeches are not native to this country; their sudden invasion is certainly strange. When I devoured them, I gathered some information—someone transported them to the vicinity of this mountain as insect eggs, and then they bred in the mountains."

The Corpse Leech King analyzed.

Once Sniffle Leeches consume the host’s essence, they’ll transfer without leaving any symptoms.

Moreover, they are highly adhesive and easily blend with blood, making it easy to accidentally harm the host.

This is why earlier, Xin Lin and the palace’s Imperial Physicians exhausted their minds but couldn’t find any clues.

If it weren’t for Xin Lin having Fu Xi’s Energy and the Corpse Leech that could enter the body, the Xuan Bird this time would be in grave danger.

"Can we figure out who brought them to Qin Mountain?"

Xin Lin asked again, as that person is the real mastermind.

"Sniffle Leeches barely have any memory, but one thing—it’s a Summoning Master. Only a Summoning Master can manipulate Spiritual Beasts in such a way. Plus, there should be other Snot Worms in the mountains. If they’re not eliminated, other birds and beasts will still suffer."

The Corpse Leech King thought for a while and responded.

Jiu Jiu Jiu~

Rong Qiu jumped up and down excitedly, grinding its teeth with a look of wanting to take on the opponent.

This time, Xin Lin understood what Rong Qiu meant.

It wanted to avenge the mountain wildlife.

Qin Mountain is just like its hometown.

It couldn’t endure seeing its family bullied.

"Rong Qiu, don’t get excited. Let’s first find a way to eliminate the Sniffle Leeches and then catch the culprit behind it."

Xin Lin soothed Rong Qiu with a few words before it calmed down.

"The Sniffle Leech eggs initially came from the Black Water Lake area. To eliminate them, it’s best to start there."

The Corpse Leech King provided a very useful piece of information.

"Black Water Lake again?"

Xin Lin became increasingly sure that this matter wasn’t simple.

Few people even know about Black Water Lake.

Summoning directly at Black Water Lake, was the target the Rainbow Dragon Trout in the lake or the Ice Horned Dragon in the Dragon Ancient Tomb beneath it?

"Alright, let’s first treat the injured birds and beasts in the mountains and search for some useful information. Once things calm down, we’ll check out Black Water Lake; what’s happening with those Rainbow Dragon Trout anyway?"

Xin Lin pondered and planned; she asked the Xuan Bird to gather the mountain birds and beasts early the next day.
