Chapter 585: The Birth of the Holy Witch
"Guan Xiyue, Guan Xiyue, Guan Xiyue..."
Guan Xiyue's name was shouted throughout the venue, giving her a headache because she didn't want to be a holy witch at all.
Guan Xiyue held her hands tightly and said to Chen Yang beside her: "I'm so nervous. What if I become a holy witch?"
"What else can we do? Of course..."
"What is it?"
"Run away."
"Ugh! How can this work? If I become a holy witch, I am their spiritual totem. How can I run away? Alas, this matter is really a big trouble."
"Then you can only pray that the wizard stone doesn't affect you."
Chen Yang shrugged helplessly and looked at the Witch King who had just appeared.
The Witch King was dragging a palm-sized bamboo bag in his hand, and he didn't know what it contained. He looked cautious, as if he was holding a sacred object.
In the center of the venue, there was a wooden table. The Witch King placed the bamboo bag on it. After opening it, he took out a round black stone the size of a little finger and placed it on the table.
After doing all this, he bowed deeply to the stone.
Following his movements, all the Wu clan members bent down and bowed.
Chen Yang also followed suit. Needless to say, this ordinary-looking black stone must be the so-called wizard stone.
After bowing, the Witch King loudly said: "Chosen, this is the beginning."
According to regulations, the first person to be elected was Hou Moyi, who came in third in the vote.
Hou Moyi was a little nervous. She walked to the wizard stone and put her hand on it.
The audience held their breath and stared in silence.
But after a while, there was no movement from Wu Shi.
Hou Moyi had a disappointed expression on his face and was about to move his hand away. At this moment, the stone suddenly trembled.
"It's moving, it's moving!"
The whole audience exclaimed, and some people who supported Hou Moyi even applauded, but because of the small number of people, the applause was not enthusiastic.
The Witch King shook his head and murmured: "This level is far from enough."
Next to him, Yu Mao said: "If others can't sense the wizard stone, then that's all."
"Next person."
An elder announced.
Immediately afterwards, Zhang Xue, who came in second in the vote, walked out.
Like Hou Moyi, she put her hand on the witch stone. Everyone thought there would be no movement, but suddenly a scream came from the witch stone. Everyone was shocked, and Hou Moyi was so frightened that he took a few steps back. , almost falling to the ground.
Chen Yang looked at Wu Shi intently and was immediately surprised.
I saw that the black wizard stone had eight slender legs, two big eyes, and two plier-like teeth that were opening and closing, very vicious, as if they wanted to eat Zhang Xue.
"Gu worm!"
Chen Yang raised his eyebrows and realized that the so-called wizard stone was not a stone at all, but a Gu worm.
The Holy Witch's natural choice is sensed by this Gu insect.
Seeing the Gu insect furious, the Witch King jumped in front of Zhang Xue and shouted angrily: "Zhang Xue is not a descendant of Wu Miao. What is going on? Zhang Tie, please come out and explain clearly."
Hearing this, everyone was greatly surprised. It turned out that Gu Chong was furious because he discovered that Zhang Xue's bloodline was not from the Wu clan.
Zhang Tie hurriedly walked out and knelt down to the Witch King: "Witch King, forgive me, my daughter Zhang Xue is indeed not the biological child of my husband and I. Please let her go."
"Knowing that she is not her biological child, yet allowing her to participate in the Holy Witch Selection is a blasphemy against the Witch God!"
The Witch King looked ugly and said coldly: "From today on, the three of you Zhang family will be expelled from the witch seedlings. They will not be able to return until ten years later."
"Yes, Witch King."
Zhang Tie frowned, even though he was unwilling to leave, he could only agree.
He didn't dare to neglect, so he grabbed Zhang Xue and immediately went home to pack his things.
As soon as Zhang Xue left, the Gu insect returned to calmness. Its legs, eyes, and teeth were all retracted, turning into stone and motionless.
The Witch King stood back among the crowd and continued: "The last one is Guan Xiyue."
Guan Xiyue trembled when she heard the call to her, and whispered to Chen Yang beside her: "What should I do? That Gu insect is so vicious, I'm afraid."
Chen Yang comforted him: "Don't worry, the bug won't bite you. As long as you touch it, run away."
"Xiyue, go quickly." Guan Zheng urged.
Guan Xiyue gritted her teeth, walked step by step to the wooden table, raised her hand, and touched the Gu worm.
But before she could touch the Gu worm, the originally silent Gu worm suddenly started to move, looking at Guan Xiyue with suspicious eyes.
This sudden movement startled Guan Xiyue and she almost ran back.
Fortunately, the Gu worm did not show off, and slowly approached Guan Xiyue along the table. The color of its body changed from black to colorful, its two fangs were retracted, and its eyes were dripping. Turn, it looks like a cute little insect.
"Wow! So cute!"
Guan Xiyue's eyes lit up and she was no longer afraid.
She squatted down, with her head at the same level as the table, and stared at the Gu insect. The Gu insect also stared at her. They seemed to be communicating.
Guan Xiyue stretched out a finger and put it on the table. The Gu insect slowly crawled onto her finger, paused for a moment, and then continued to crawl up.
"Ouch, it's itchy! Geeky..."
Guan Xiyue chuckled a few times, and the Gu worm had climbed onto her shoulder. She reached out and touched the Gu worm's head. The Gu worm was like a puppy, lying on her shoulder happily and letting her stroke it. .
"Chen Yang, look, this little bug is so cute!"
Guan Xiyue shouted excitedly.
Hearing this, Chen Yang covered his face and was speechless. This silly girl, don't you know what this means?
At this moment, the whole audience was silent, but everyone's face was full of excitement, and their eyes were fixed on Guan Xiyue.
Before Guan Xiyue came back to her senses, suddenly, all the witches, including the witch king, bowed and saluted, and shouted in unison: "Meet the Holy Witch!"
Hearing this, Guan Xiyue was stunned and waved her hands and said: "No, no, no, I am not the Holy Witch, don't get me wrong."
The Witch King laughed and said: "Holy Witch, now the Wanling Gu worm has identified you, you are our Holy Witch, this is an unchangeable fact."
"How can such an important matter as the Holy Witch be decided by a little bug. Ouch, little guy, don't bite me, it's itchy, giggle..."
Before Guan Xiyue finished speaking, the Wanling Gu worm gently bit her neck a few times, making her giggle.
Seeing her being so friendly with the Wanling Gu worm, the Wu clan members all smiled.
Even Guan Xiyue forgot about the business, grabbed the Wanling Gu worm off her neck, pointed at it and said, "Little guy, if you don't listen, I'll beat you."
The Wanling Gu worm seemed to understand what she said, looking away with an expression that said, "I didn't hear you." This made Guan Xiyue laugh again, and she liked this little Gu worm very much.
