626 Frostbitten Because of Them

An Jiuyue was speechless when she saw so many stems of herbs.

She was also surprised to see so many Budding Icy Heart Worms here. It made sense that they could eat so many medicinal herbs—this was a large family of Budding Icy Heart Worms!

Budding Icy Heart Worms lived in groups. She had read about them in books from the Suspended Pavilion.

However, she had never seen so many Budding Icy Heart Worms or such a large family of them.

It seemed like… She had never seen a Budding Icy Heart Worm before. She only received an impression of it after entering the Suspended Pavilion’s Medicine Spirit. It was all from the Medicine Spirit.

“Ahem, Yan Nuo, Yan Jin, dig up all these herbs and pile them here.”

With that, she took a white cloth from her space and laid it out, gesturing for them to place the medicinal herbs on it.

“You don’t have to remove the worms. I’ll do it later.”

“Okay,” Yan Nuo and Yan Jin replied in unison. They rolled up their sleeves and got to work.

Qian Jiyun also came to help. Of course, An Jiuyue would not let the three men do it alone. She also began digging for the herbs.

She looked up and reminded everyone, “Remember to shake off the soil and put it on the white cloth.”

“Alright, don’t worry, Mistress. I promise I won’t leave any soil on it,” Yan Nuo replied.

“Go rest at the side. We’ll do it.”

Qian Jiyun frowned when he saw that she was about to dig for herbs.

“No need. I’ll dig too. After all, these herbs are all for me. It’ll be too embarrassing if I don’t do my own things.”

An Jiuyue smiled at him and got to work.

The four of them dug up the herbs quickly. Despite their meticulous digging, they finished in under an hour.

“Mistress, how are you going to get rid of these worms? Let me do it.”

Yan Nuo took the initiative to help. He wanted to remove the worms, but Yan Jin stopped him.

He turned to look at Yan Jin and asked, “What are you doing?”

“It took me 15 minutes to remove two worms,” Yan Jin said.

“What?” Yan Nuo was shocked and in disbelief.

They were only a few small worms. Would removing them be that difficult?

“These worms are ice-types. They might be a type of demonic beast,” Yan Jin said.

He finally realized that these were not ordinary worms. They were ice-type demonic beasts. Even if they were small, they would be difficult to deal with.

“Look at my fingers.”

He stretched out his hand for Yan Nuo to see. His right thumb and index finger were red.

“They’re frostbitten because of them,” he admitted.

Yan Nuo was silent.

Could a worm freeze people?

Moreover, Yan Jin was an Original Soul cultivator. His Original Soul energy was not low. How could he be frostbitten because of a worm?

“If what you said is true, it’ll be even more important for us to do it. Mistress, you—”

“No need. I have my ways.”

An Jiuyue shook her head at them. She took a bag of fine salt from her space and sprinkled it over the stems. Then a miracle happened.
