Divine & Bizarre: Increasing Points to Invincibility-Chapter 943 - 250: Blood Gu Sect Emerges! Sudden Turmoil!_4

A decade, millions of people—these were staggering numbers. On average, this meant that every year, disciples of the Blood Gu Sect within the Shangwu Dynasty would harm hundreds of thousands of citizens! Out of these hundreds of thousands of harmed citizens... even if the mortality rate wasn’t a hundred percent, it must have been around fifty percent, right? Didn’t that imply that every year, the population of an entire county perished because of the Blood Gu Sect?

Moreover, the Blood Gu Sect had been active in the Shangwu Dynasty for not just a decade, but possibly a century or even several centuries. For all these years, despite the great military and economic strength of the Shangwu Dynasty, they still hadn’t managed to eradicate such a huge scourge. It goes to show just how troublesome this entity really was.

"They’re coming over, and I think we should take a step back," Bai Sheng suggested. "After all, if we’re standing in this road and the Imperial City Division officials consider us accomplices of the Blood Gu Sect, even if we’re able to clear up the misunderstanding later, the time and energy wasted in the process would still be enough to give anyone a headache."

Just as Bai Sheng finished proposing this idea, a sudden abnormality occurred! At the same moment, Bai Sheng’s expression subtly changed because he sensed a particularly bizarre aura. This indistinct aura gave him an extremely uneasy feeling.

And then his eyes caught sight of an unusually shaped little insect buzzing past in front of him. Upon seeing such a strange little insect, Bai Sheng’s pupils dilated in shock as he urgently warned, "It’s a Gu insect! The sect disciples confined in the prison cart can’t control Gu insects."

"That means... there might be Blood Gu Sect members nearby. They’re... likely trying to hijack the prison cart!" Just as Bai Sheng finished his warning, the sound of countless fluttering wings could be heard all around. Even the ordinary citizens hiding by the roadside could clearly hear such a noise.

As the roadside citizens hastily turned their gaze toward the source of the sounds, they were met with an unthinkable sight—dark swarms of insects like tidal waves emerging from every alley, their number enough to make one’s scalp tingle.

Such an abnormality... even ordinary people could notice it, let alone the government officials escorting the prison carts and the Imperial City Division! Especially a group of Imperial City Division officials, who immediately became alert.

"Stop!" one of the Imperial City Division officials quickly barked in a stern voice, "Blood Gu Sect disciples are trying to hijack the prison cart! Be on guard! Block these Gu insects!"

So many Gu insects appeared like a tidal wave.

You couldn’t miss them even if you tried.

And the entire street plunged into chaos due to the emergence of these countless Gu insects, as they indiscriminately attacked everyone! Their sharp mouthparts were akin to having been stung by a hornet when they bit into human flesh, or even worse. The pain was unbearable, the sort of pain that nobody could stand.

The physical agony mixed with the psychological terror caused more chaos in the street, and panic spread in an instant. People screamed shrilly, trying desperately to flap the Gu insects off their bodies.

The street was so congested it was impassable, and the prison carts could not move an inch.

More and more Gu insects were converging on those carts!

"Damn it!" An Imperial City Division member shouted, frantically swatting a Gu insect off the back of his hand. He pulled out a talisman, blew a breath on it, and the talisman astonishingly burst into fierce flames, surging towards the front.

In an instant, hundreds of Gu insects were burned to ashes, but still more were swarming in to fill the gap.

How many Gu insects were there? Far more than tens of thousands.

At least hundreds of thousands!! 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
