Chapter 409: Chapter 408: Naive to the Ways of the World, A Pursuit Attack Approaches

The Insect Bamboo Crystal could indeed be considered a valuable trading item among the Insect Race.

Humans could use it to enhance their spiritual power and even reach the threshold of the SSS level.

If it weren’t for Lu Zixun having the system, he might have been interested in it himself.

"What Insect Bamboo Crystal? We’ve only discussed exchanging the Insect Race Heart, don’t slander us!"

Upon hearing Yue Chengwan say this, Tang Tianyu instantly became infuriated.

"The information from the Insect Nest can’t be wrong, it’s not just the Insect Race Heart."

Yue Chengwan said indifferently, with a cold gaze, "We won’t make a move against Lord Xun, but that doesn’t mean other families in the city won’t."

Hearing this, Lu Zixun, who was eating a candied haw on a stick, wasn’t sure whether Tang Tianyu and the others had taken it, as he hadn’t entered with them.

Even if they had taken it...

Anyway, the Emperor-level Insect had died, and Lu Zixun was confident he could take Tang Tianyu and the other person out with him, they wouldn’t be able to catch up.

At this moment, Xue Ning fell silent, only to speak after a while: "It was given by the Insect Nest, we were indeed meant to exchange the Insect Bamboo’s Heart. Our item for trade was Spiritual Stream."

It was like she was speaking to Lu Zixun.

However, using Spiritual Stream in exchange for the Insect Bamboo’s Heart could be considered a fair exchange.

Cultivating Blood Energy, the impure aura could corrode the Insect’s Spiritual Wisdom.

But consuming Spiritual Stream could reduce the level of corrosion.

If what Xue Ning said was true, then the Insect Nest was lying.

Having obtained the Spiritual Stream and not wanting to lose the Insect Bamboo Crystal, this Insect Tide was interesting.

"Impossible."

Yue Chengwan stated decisively, "The Insect Nest is absolutely fair, it would never do such a thing."

"Are you finished?"

Throwing the stick aside, Lu Zixun summoned the Night Evil Sword, "If you’re done, we’ll get ready to leave. Oh, and could you make your hotel simpler? It’s like a maze—it’s hard to tell if I’m here to rest or to play."

After the slight complaint, under Lu Zixun’s control, the Night Evil Sword grew five inches longer.

Looking at Tang Tianyu who still stood frozen, Lu Zixun called out, "Are you coming up, or do you plan to spend the night here?"

"Lord Xun, this goes against the rules."

Frowning slightly, Yue Chengwan blocked the path of the Night Evil Sword.

Fixing Yue Chengwan with a chilling look, Lu Zixun simply said, "Scram."

Yue Chengwan, with a livid complexion, took a deep breath and stepped aside.

Even without Yue Sichen’s orders, sensing the near-SSS level aura emanating from Lu Zixun, Yue Chengwan dared not act.

"Hey, let me ask you something."

The previously frosty-faced Lu Zixun now asked with a grin, "In a few days, does your Yue Clan have some kind of event going on?"

Perceiving that this cat was no ordinary pest, Yue Chengwan turned his head to Yue Ying, indicating he didn’t want to talk to Lu Zixun and let her speak instead.

"In a few days, it will be the Queen’s coronation ceremony."

Yue Ying answered truthfully.

"I see."

Nodding slightly, Lu Zixun took out a pearl filled with Blood Energy from his storage talisman and tossed it to Yue Ying, "Here, it’s for you."

This was something he had just obtained after killing the Emperor-level Insect, and it was useless to a Spiritual Ability User; better to give it away rather than letting it take up space.

"Emperor-Emperor-Emperor-Emperor-level Blood Energy Pearl."

Swallowing hard, Yue Ying was close to tears, "Brother-brother... what should I do with this?"

Sensing the Blood Energy Aura was truly of Emperor-level, Yue Chengwan felt even more relieved that he hadn’t attacked Lu Zixun.

Raising his hand, he ruffled Yue Ying’s head, "If Lord Xun gives it to you, use it. Break through to Emperor-level as soon as possible, so our family can enter the Imperial City too."

Right after the words fell, threads of Blood Energy appeared in the room, killing the other three King-level members of the Insect Race.

Yue Chengwan looked in the direction where Lu Zixun was leaving and said indifferently, "Little sister, remember, we did not see Lord Xun today, let alone a fugitive."

Startled for a moment, Yue Ying looked at the bodies on the ground and nodded in understanding.

The preciousness of an Emperor-level Blood Energy Pearl might not be known to Lu Zixun, but Yue Chengwan was acutely aware of it.

It could be said that Lu Zixun had given their family a great gift.

What a pity...

Yue Chengwan sighed. Given their different affiliations, all they could do for Lu Zixun was to buy him some more time to leave.

"Lord Xun, when did you come?"

Standing on the Night Evil Sword, Tang Tianyu asked as he supported the somewhat acrophobic Bing Xue Ning.

"I’ve been here all along. I guess it was about when my niece decided to go to the Insect Nest, I was already there."

"Ah?"

Upon hearing this, Bing Xue Ning was somewhat astonished, and a hint of crimson appeared on her cheeks.

Tang Tianyu, on the other hand, felt somewhat suffocated. Scratching his head, he tentatively asked, "Lord Xun, where were you last night?"

"I was right here on the sword. I haven’t been able to sleep well these past few days—so annoying."

After voicing his complaint, Lu Zixun’s Spiritual Energy detected the surroundings.

Tang Tianyu and Bing Xue Ning, who thought that Lu Zixun was hinting at something, exchanged a glance before guiltily turning their heads away.

Yet Bing Xue Ning’s face was flushed, her demeanor quite shy.

Turning his head in surprise and glancing at them for a moment, he noted their emotional state.

Lu Zixun, utterly clueless about emotional matters, failed to notice that the two had become much closer than before.

"The trash from the Cao Family was killed in one move, what garbage. Lord Xun? The Queen of the Yue Clan wants to protect this ’kitty’?"

A Flying Dragon stood atop the Insect Nest, morphing into human form after listening to the recounting from the Insect Nest, and murmured while gazing in the direction Lu Zixun had left.

"If I were to throw Lu Zixun’s corpse at the coronation ceremony a few days from now, the expression on Yue Sichen’s face would surely be interesting to watch."

His face showing a morbid excitement, the Flying Dragon quickly pursued the direction Lu Zixun had gone, and judging by its flying speed, it was an Emperor-level insect.

"Oh, right,"

Lu Zixun, advancing at full speed toward the alert area, turned his head and asked Bing Xue Ning, "Did you really exchange the Spiritual Stream for the Insect Bamboo Crystal?"

"Mhm,"

Bing Xue Ning nodded slightly.

Upon hearing this, Lu Zixun’s eyes narrowed—this was interesting.

Even if Bing Xue Ning’s strength wasn’t sufficient, the token she offered, along with the Spiritual Stream, was enough to prove her powerful background.

But the Insect Nest still dared to do this, could it be...

A bold idea formed in Lu Zixun’s mind. Were the Insect Race prepared to tear off the facade?

The more he thought about it, the more he believed it to be true, recalling the secret letter he found on Qi Hengyi’s body.

They could even devise a plan to annihilate the contestants en masse like this. Tearing off the facade was only a matter of time, but such behavior was quite unsightly.

Just as Lu Zixun was about to say something, a surge of Blood Energy Aura came from behind, causing his eyebrows to furrow.

"Ding—Killing Intent Value from Yicang Kong detected: +8000."

His expression grew increasingly serious—this was the most powerful adversary Lu Zixun had encountered since his arrival in the Crimson Land.

Compared to the previous Emperor-level Insect that was killed in one strike, this one was dozens of times more dangerous.
