As Ye Ling placed the pill into Chu Yun's mouth, the parasitic worms plaguing her were instantly cleared.
Chu Yun regained consciousness, saw Ye Ling holding her, and even kissing her. Her pupils constricted sharply, and she instinctively pushed Ye Ling away with force, then slapped him, "You scoundrel!"
"Wait! Let me explain!"
Seeing Chu Yun's palm coming at him, Ye Ling didn't foolishly stand there to take the blow. He dodged Chu Yun's attack and then, using his remaining left hand, grabbed Chu Yun's wrist, quickly saying, "The situation was critical just now, I was giving you medicine!"
Chu Yun glared, "What an excuse! Don't you have hands?"
Ye Ling raised his right arm.
Chu Yun saw that Ye Ling's right palm was gone, and she was stunned. She quickly calmed down, a hint of apology flashing in her eyes, and said to Ye Ling, "I'm sorry, I misunderstood you... If you're angry, you can slap me too, I won't dodge."
BOOM!!!
As soon as Chu Yun finished speaking, a powerful force surged from the burning mother's nest, followed by a piercing scream!
Ye Ling glanced at the mother's nest, quickly condensed his right palm with the power of creation, and pulled Chu Yun to flee outside, "Now is not the time to talk about this, it seems we didn't kill the worm mother!"
As Ye Ling pulled Chu Yun to escape, a large amount of black light erupted from the mother's nest and shot towards Ye Ling and Chu Yun at extreme speed!
Ye Ling, having just had a hand severed by those black lights, was acutely aware of their power. He immediately reactivated the Mirror Domain of Causality.
A large amount of black light collided with Ye Ling's Mirror Domain of Causality, was reflected back, and shot into the mother's nest, eliciting even more agonizing screams.
Chu Yun glanced back at the burning mother's nest and said to Ye Ling, "We have severely wounded the worm mother. Its memories are being destroyed, and it will perish soon."
"The worm mother has completely gone berserk, and the worm nest is its domain, filled with countless parasites. Fighting the worm mother inside the nest now is extremely unwise. We just need to escape, no need to fight it!"
Ye Ling: "Can you leave the worm nest now? I can take you out!"
Chu Yun: "Not yet. The worm mother's power is still bound to me. Let's return to the safe house. That place is a blind spot for the worm mother, and it won't find us there for a while!"
"Alright!"
Ye Ling quickly agreed and immediately activated Absolute Divine Movement, teleporting Chu Yun back to the safe house.
Upon entering the safe house, everything around them became calm, as if the turmoil in the worm nest had no connection to this place.
Chu Yun, after returning to the safe house, finally relaxed and let out a sigh of relief. Then she walked up to Ye Ling again and leaned her face towards him.
Ye Ling was startled when Chu Yun suddenly leaned her face towards him, "What are you doing?"
Chu Yun: "I misunderstood you just now. Acting against you at such a critical moment would greatly damage the foundation of trust between us. Slap me."
Seeing Chu Yun's serious demeanor, Ye Ling was amused and exasperated. He waved his hand, "You didn't hit me, there's no need to be so serious. Besides, if you hadn't given me your pill, I might have perished there."
Chu Yun: "You truly don't mind?"
Ye Ling gave a wry smile, "Mind what? If we're being honest, I did take advantage of you."
The situation had been urgent, and Ye Ling's consciousness was not clear, so he had acted purely on instinct to rescue Chu Yun.
However, after calming down, Ye Ling realized he had had enough time to repair his palm with the power of creation before giving Chu Yun the pill.
Of course, Ye Ling didn't explain this in detail to Chu Yun, as it would only make things more complicated.
"Alright, since you've said so, let's not mention what happened earlier."
Chu Yun didn't dwell on the matter too much and then said to Ye Ling, "Before the worm mother discovers this safe house, I'll send you out of the worm nest first."
Ye Ling: "What about you?"
Chu Yun: "My connection with the worm mother hasn't been completely severed yet, so I can't leave the worm nest for now. Once the worm mother's memories dissipate, I'll be able to leave."
"Until then, I'll just hide in this safe house."
Ye Ling: "Then I'll wait with you, and we'll go out together."
Chu Yun looked at Ye Ling speechlessly and said, "We don't need to fight the worm mother anymore. There's no point in you staying here, so leave first. I'll follow shortly."
Ye Ling: "Is that really the case?"
Chu Yun: "Why would I lie to you about this? You personally destroyed the worm mother's memories. It has no way out. Its current rampage is its final madness."
Ye Ling: "If that's the case, then I can witness the worm mother's demise within the worm nest. I have now balanced the time inside and outside the worm nest, so I can stay inside the worm nest for as long as I want."
"Why can't you understand what I'm saying?" Chu Yun, seeing that Ye Ling had no intention of leaving, became angry again, "The worm mother has gone berserk, and the safe house is no longer safe. It will find this place soon. Are you staying here to die with me?"
"Why isn't there an option to live together?" Ye Ling retorted, "I don't like tragic partings, and I don't believe the worm mother can kill us."
"Sigh... you fool."
Chu Yun had no hope of Ye Ling leaving. She casually found a place to sit down and said, "The pill we just took is called the Primordial Sacred Soul Pill. It's a sacred medicine I developed over many years in the worm nest to resist the worm mother's attacks. I only had two in total, and now there are none left."
"The worm mother can plant parasites directly in our souls and interfere with our consciousness. Without the Primordial Sacred Soul Pill, we wouldn't be able to resist the worm mother's power at all."
"When the worm mother finds this safe house and plants parasites in our minds again, we will die with it without even seeing its true form."
"Therefore, Ye Ling, there is no point in you staying here. It's better for one to die than two."
Chu Yun stopped speaking, hoping Ye Ling would think for himself.
"Your pill is called the Primordial Sacred Soul Pill, right? Do you have the prescription?" Ye Ling suddenly asked.
Chu Yun: "What's the use of having the prescription? There are no ingredients left in this worm nest. Even if there were, I don't have the time to refine new Primordial Sacred Soul Pills now."
"If you don't mind, can I see the prescription?" Ye Ling asked with a smile.
"Why are you so stubborn? Can't you understand what I'm saying?" Chu Yun gave Ye Ling an annoyed glance but still handed him her prescription, "If you want to see it, then see it. It's good to know more things before you die."
Ye Ling smilingly took Chu Yun's prescription, scanned the contents, and silently analyzed the ingredients and effects of each medicinal herb, recalling the medicinal power he received when he took the Primordial Sacred Soul Pill.
"I've almost figured out the principle of forming the pill. Here's your prescription back."
Ye Ling muttered to himself, returning the prescription to Chu Yun, and then summoned the power of creation.
Chu Yun took back the prescription, not taking Ye Ling's words seriously, "You learn quite fast, figuring out the principle just by looking at it. It's a shame, though..."
Chu Yun's words were cut short as a rich medicinal fragrance rushed into her nostrils!
Chu Yun's body trembled, and she immediately looked at Ye Ling. In front of Ye Ling, dozens of Primordial Sacred Soul Pills were already floating.
