Just as Luo Chao came to a conclusion, the middle-aged woman suddenly clutched her head and wailed, "Oh, my head, my head hurts so much too!"

Before Luo Chao could react, the middle-aged woman rolled her eyes and collapsed onto the ground.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Immediately after, one after another, the sound of people collapsing echoed continuously, and everyone in the hall fell to the ground!

Seeing this, Luo Chao finally understood.

It seems that the Black Magic Master had tampered with the food in the hospital cafeteria, and now the entire hospital might be afflicted with the Nine Dragons Gu!

Luo Chao felt secretly fortunate that he had gotten up early to cultivate and hadn't eaten yet, so he wasn't affected by the Gu.

However, Lin Yun and the special police officers assigned to protect her were in grave danger, as the meals they usually ate were from the hospital cafeteria!

Thinking of this, Luo Chao prepared to rush back to Lin Yun's ward to check on her.

But just then, in a corner of the hospital lobby, a young man dressed as a doctor, instead of collapsing, swiftly removed his mask.

Luo Chao immediately realized that this young man was the Black Magic Master who had spread the Gu throughout the hospital!

So, Luo Chao quickly pretended to be affected by the Gu and lay down on the ground before the Black Magic Master noticed him.

"Heh heh heh, I didn't expect my Nine Dragons Gu would so easily ensnare everyone; my senior brother didn't want me to act rashly, that coward! Who does he think the Evil Dragon is?"

The Black Magic Master dressed as a doctor burst into arrogant laughter upon seeing everyone in the hall fall.

Then, Evil Dragon raised his wrist, glanced at the time on his watch, and smirked wickedly, muttering to himself, "Hmm, the timing is just right. Those special police should have fallen too. Sorry, senior brother, but I'm taking the head of the Hai Chen Group's president first!"

After saying this, Evil Dragon started to walk through the hall to take the elevator to the tenth floor, intending to take Lin Yun's life.

But as he passed by Luo Chao, he involuntarily stopped in his tracks.

Because Luo Chao had previously not only dispelled his Nine Dragons Gu but also killed one of his Gu insects, Evil Dragon remembered Luo Chao well.

And now that he was close to Luo Chao, he suddenly realized that Luo Chao's appearance looked somewhat familiar.

Evil Dragon crouched down, examining Luo Chao closely, and a look of ecstasy instantly flashed in his eyes!

"Heh heh heh, heaven is really helping me. To think I'd run into you, this is truly killing two birds with one stone!" Evil Dragon laughed maniacally again.

Just then, Evil Dragon had discovered that Luo Chao was the target of another assassin task issued by Black Umbrella on the assassin network.

This meant that Evil Dragon could kill two mission targets at once, earning two bounties!

"Heh heh heh, brother, you can only blame your bad luck. In your next life, be reincarnated as a Gu insect, and work with me to enjoy life!"

While laughing triumphantly, Evil Dragon pulled out a dagger, ready to slit Luo Chao's throat.

Whoosh!

At that moment, a gust of wind sounded, and Evil Dragon only felt a blur before his eyes—Luo Chao, who should have been on the ground, suddenly disappeared.

"Huh?" Evil Dragon hadn't had time to react. When he looked down, he found that the dagger in his hand was also gone!

"Who do you say should be reincarnated as an insect?" Luo Chao's voice suddenly sounded from behind Evil Dragon, and at the same time, a cold dagger was pressed against Evil Dragon's neck.

The cold touch of the dagger snapped Evil Dragon awake in an instant, but he wasn't very scared because he had leverage.

"Heh heh." Evil Dragon chuckled sinisterly and then said, "Not bad, pretending to be dizzy. Careless of me, but if you kill me, they'll all die under the Nine Dragons Gu."

"I can cure them," Luo Chao replied in a low voice.

"I know you can cure them, but I'm afraid there's not enough time. I've calculated that there are at least five hundred people in this hospital affected by the Gu, and my Gu insects can eat through a person's brain in an hour. Five hundred people... can you save them all?" Evil Dragon sneered.

Evil Dragon was right. Although Luo Chao could cleanse a single person of the Nine Dragons Gu in a few minutes, five hundred people were indeed too many; there simply wasn't enough time!

Seeing Luo Chao's silence, Evil Dragon continued, "But if you release me and give me three million US dollars, I can withdraw all the Gu insects right now!"

"I can release you, but don't even think about the money," Luo Chao replied, as he couldn't think of a better solution either.

"Alright, consider me unlucky. Let me go, and I'll withdraw the Gu insects immediately," Evil Dragon said, spreading his hands as if helpless.

Hearing this, Luo Chao had no choice but to let Evil Dragon go.

Evil Dragon stood up, dusted off his clothes, then suddenly pulled a wooden box from his pocket and opened it in one swift motion!

The moment the wooden box was opened, a swarm of unknown Gu insects launched into the air, flooding out in droves.

"Heh heh heh, try my latest Blood Bee Gu if you want to kill me!"

Evil Dragon laughed wildly, already envisioning Luo Chao being stung into a corpse by his Gu insects!

However, to Evil Dragon's surprise, Luo Chao calmly took out his cell phone and even turned on the recording function!

"Oh? Are you preparing to record your last words?" Evil Dragon taunted.

To him, Luo Chao thinking of taking a selfie while facing death was sheer madness.

"I'm just wanting to record a video of you; it will be useful for me!" Luo Chao seriously pointed the camera at Evil Dragon and said.

Seeing Luo Chao aim his phone at him, a sense of panic and unease surged through Evil Dragon's heart.

He immediately felt around his waist, finding it empty.

"It's over!" This was Evil Dragon's final thought before his demise.

Meanwhile, the swarm of flying Gu insects in the hospital lobby rushed straight at Evil Dragon.

Like a pack of wolves seeing fresh meat, the insects rapidly covered Evil Dragon's body.

In less than ten seconds, as the insects dispersed, Evil Dragon had become nothing but a skeletal corpse!

Playing with a piece of Jade in his hand, Luo Chao walked over to Evil Dragon's corpse.

After a bit of searching, Luo Chao found a pack of oddly scented feed.

Luo Chao picked up Evil Dragon's wooden box and experimentally sprinkled a bit of the feed into it; surprisingly, all the swirling Gu insects flew back into the box at once.

It seems this feed is their favorite food!

In his mind, Luo Chao thought, "The Blood Bee Gu is incredibly powerful; I'll hold onto them for now. With this feed, the Blood Bee Gu will work for me!"

Then Luo Chao closed the lid of the wooden box and put the Blood Bee Gu into his pocket.

After securing the Blood Bee Gu, Luo Chao's attention returned to the piece of Jade in his hand.

At this moment, a familiar, strange energy was continuously flowing from the Jade into Luo Chao's body...
