Chapter 470: The Source of Madness

"Young Master, be careful!" The elder who was resting not far away jumped up and slapped Amber with his hand.

From his point of view, Lu Ye's natal monster was undoubtedly mad. In this situation, the only way was to kill the monster quickly, otherwise the monster would definitely devour the master.

The red knife flashed, and the elder quickly withdrew his hand, looking at Lu Ye in astonishment: "Young Master?"

"Wait!" Lu Ye shouted, his expression solemn.

Amber was actually infected with the madness, which he had never expected. Before, Amber had been fighting side by side with him, never left his side, and had no signs of injury. How did he get infected?

However, unlike other monsters that would go crazy immediately after getting mad, although Amber's eyes flashed scarlet from time to time at this moment, and threatening roars were constantly coming out of his throat, it can be seen that it was trying its best to maintain its sanity and suppress the desire to attack the surroundings at all costs.

After all, it was a pet that had lived and died with Lu Ye for more than two years, and it was also bound by the pet contract given by Tianji. Even if it was infected with madness, it was not completely crazy like other monsters. It still had the last bit of rationality.

There was a message from the battlefield mark, and Lu Ye hurriedly checked. As expected, it was Yiyi who sent the message.

After reading Yiyi's message, Lu Ye looked up suddenly, and Amber, who was standing in front of him, lowered his tiger head to Lu Ye. .

The light flashed on the Panshan knife, and Lu Ye stabbed straight with a knife. The long knife accurately stabbed into the position three inches behind Amber's neck. This knife stabbed too suddenly. Xia Qianqian and others looked at Lu Ye in astonishment. They didn't expect that he had just stopped the elder's actions, but now he actually took action himself.

But the next moment they realized that something was wrong, because if Lu Ye really wanted to take Amber's life with this knife, he would not stab it in that position.

There was a faint strange chirping sound, like the sound of cicadas, but the noisy interference on the battlefield made it less real.

The long knife that had pierced into Amber's neck was raised, blood splashed, and everyone's eyes were fixed on Lu Ye's Panshan knife.

At this moment, at the tip of the knife, there was something like a cicada insect that was pierced and picked out, struggling and squirming, but before everyone could see what it was, the cicada insect suddenly exploded and turned into a pool of black juice!

Lu Ye hurriedly urged his spiritual power to wrap up the ball of black juice and prevent it from spreading.

Everyone stared at the black juice wrapped in spiritual power with inexplicable expressions.

But Amber, who had the cicada insect picked out from the back of his neck by Lu Ye, calmed down at this moment, shook his head, and the scarlet in his eyes had long since faded.

Blood was flowing from the back of his neck, but this kind of injury was only a superficial injury for a monster like it. It raised its eyes and stared at the ball of black juice wrapped in spiritual power, and avoided it with some caution and hid behind Lu Ye.

Lu Ye turned his head and looked at Xia Qianqian, and the two looked into each other's eyes.

"The reason why the monsters went crazy has been found!"

"What?" Xia Qianqian had not recovered from the incident just now. After she subconsciously replied, she suddenly realized: "You mean, the things you picked out just now?"

"It's not the monsters that are going crazy, but something is parasitic in their bodies and controlling them!"

Parasitism, control...

Xia Qianqian was stunned: "Are you sure?"

"Sure!"

If he relied on himself alone, he would not be able to detect the source of Amber's problem so quickly, because the insect parasitic on Amber's neck has completely merged with Amber's breath. Even if he urged his spiritual power to check Amber's body inch by inch, he might not be able to find any abnormalities.

This is why the cultivators of the Ten Thousand Beasts Domain have not figured out the reason why the monsters went crazy. They have also caught some crazy monsters and studied them carefully, but they found nothing.

But there is another Yiyi in Amber's body!

Since entering the secret realm of the Ten Thousand Beasts, Yiyi has not shown up. Before Amber got sick, she didn't pay much attention to it. But as soon as Amber got sick, she immediately checked Amber's body and found the strange insect at once. She quickly sent a message to Lu Ye.

This kind of insect parasitized silently, and even Lu Ye didn't know when Amber was tricked. What is certain is that when Amber was parasitized, the insect should be very small, so small that even Lu Ye didn't find it. It only grew rapidly after parasitizing in its body. When the insect jumped out by Lu Ye, it was already as big as a cicada.

Unfortunately, after being picked out by Lu Ye with a knife, the insect exploded immediately. This may also be the natural way for insects to hide to avoid being discovered by monks.

At this moment, the bursting black juice was wrapped by Lu Ye's spiritual power. Everyone looked carefully and was shocked to find that there were some tiny insects swimming in the black juice. As expected, these insects were very small. If they were not specially checked, they would really be ignored.

Lu Ye urged his spiritual power, and the fiery red spiritual power burst and burned the juice clean.

"Awoo!" Amber returned to the size of a cat, jumped onto Lu Ye's shoulder, and roared in a low voice.

Lu Ye nodded pretentiously while checking the information sent by Yiyi in the battlefield mark.

Yiyi and Amber are in a companion relationship, so Yiyi knows what Amber thinks in her heart, which is something that even Lu Ye, the master, cannot compare to.

Even with the pet contract given by Tianji, the life essence technique and the beast seal that were concluded before, Lu Ye can only have some simple exchanges with Amber at most, and there is no way to be as perceptive as Yiyi.

"What did it say?" Xia Qianqian was surprised. Even she had never seen such a human-like monster.

Lu Ye kept nodding...

After a while, after checking the information sent by Yiyi, Lu Ye said: "It said that when it was controlled by the bug before, it felt something in that direction!" As he said this, he pointed in a direction.

"Felt what?"

"I don't know, but there is indeed an invisible connection with the bug that controls it."

"The source of madness?" Xia Qianqian's eyes lit up.

The monsters went crazy not because of the monsters themselves, but because there were bugs parasitic in their bodies to control them. Those bugs were closely related to something in the distance, so she would naturally have such an association.

If this is true, then everything that was difficult to explore before is now clear.

"Do you know where it is specifically?" Xia Qianqian asked.

"I only know that it is in that direction..."

"That direction..." The elder who had been standing aside and had not spoken seemed to be thinking.

Lu Ye looked at him: "What did the elder remember?"

"That's the direction of Xuanwu Sect." The elder frowned: "The madness of the monsters started from Xuanwu Sect and then swept the entire Ten Thousand Beasts Domain."

After hearing what he said, Lu Ye and Xia Qianqian couldn't help but have an idea in their minds. That's right, the location sensed by Amber is most likely where Xuanwu Sect is.

"But Xuanwu Sect has been destroyed. We have all gone there to investigate, and there is nothing there."

"You have also investigated the mad monsters, but you still didn't find the bugs?" Xia Qianqian said.

The elder was immediately ashamed.

From his point of view, if it weren't for the telepathy between his young master and his natal monster today, the bugs would probably still not be discovered.

The reason for the monster's madness has been found. Although the source has not been determined, it is almost certain. Lu Ye and Xia Qianqian looked at each other and saw each other's thoughts.

Liangjie City can no longer be defended. Judging from the situation of the monsters attacking the city, even if Liangjie City goes all out, it can't hold out for a few days. By then, the city will be broken, and the Ten Thousand Beasts Domain will still follow the predetermined trajectory of history. When that time comes, no matter whether it is the native cultivators of the Ten Thousand Beasts Domain or the visitors from Jiuzhou, they will not have a good end.

So for Lu Ye and others, there is only one way to survive now.

Go to the source of this incident and solve the problem from the source, so that there may be a chance to survive.

"We need some manpower." Lu Ye said in a deep voice.

"I contact people." Xia Qianqian said so, and began to communicate with the outside world.

For someone like her in the ninth level of Yunhe, her connections are naturally not comparable to Lu Ye, a fledgling. Among the Jiuzhou cultivators who came in this time, there are always some people she knows.

"Young Master, what are you doing..." The elder was confused.

Lu Ye thought for a moment and said, "Grand Elder, we have to go to Xuanwu Sect! There should be a solution there."

"Go to Xuanwu Sect now?" The Grand Elder's face changed. Now is the time when monsters are attacking the city. Leaving at this moment is equivalent to fighting out of the siege. How dangerous.

"If you don't go now, you will have no chance. Staying here is just waiting to die!"

The Grand Elder wanted to say something after hearing this, but after careful consideration, what Lu Ye said was not the truth? He nodded immediately: "Young Master is right. Staying here is indeed waiting to die! I'll go see that old man Liu Wuzhai and see if he can send some people to go with us!"

Lu Ye happily said: "That's the best!"

For this trip to Xuanwu Sect, the more people there are, the better. The more people there are, the more things can be accomplished.

"Young Master, wait a moment!" The Grand Elder said this, soaring into the sky and flying straight towards the City Lord's Mansion.

After a moment, a stream of light came straight and landed in front of everyone, followed by a lazy voice: "Xia Qianqian, do you know that if you leave your post at this critical moment, your military merit will be deducted!"

When the voice sounded, Lu Ye was stunned for a moment, because this voice... sounded familiar!

He turned his head and saw a fat man with a round body. The fat man's face was full of fat, his eyes narrowed into a slit, with a big belly and a smile.

Lu Ye was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect to meet this person here! And when he entered the secret realm of the Ten Thousand Beasts before, he didn't notice that this person also came in.

As if he noticed Lu Ye's gaze, the fat man glanced at Lu Ye, and a gleam of brilliance flashed in his narrowed eyes, and his smile became more hearty.
