Chapter 2011 A treacherous minister is good, a treacherous minister is wonderful, a treacherous mini
The Insect King wished he could gnaw the wooden sword into wood chips!
But it was also puzzled.
When it first woke up in the mine, it had lost all its memories, so it didn't know who its father was.
Unfortunately, all those insect eggs were killed by their unscrupulous owner. Otherwise, once they hatched, they might have found out who their father was.
Despite its puzzlement, it didn't stop it from giving the wooden sword a good scolding.
Fengxi ignored their argument and kept thinking about how to deal with the juvenile moths.
She asked Commander Liu, "Master, how does the mother moth control the daughter moths?"
"I'm not too sure about that, since I've only seen related records in some ancient books, and they're not very detailed."
Before he could finish speaking, the wooden sword hurriedly said:
"Master, please quickly check the jade slip. If there is no corresponding answer, it means that the black and white jade slip has been lazy again!"
Black and white jade slip: "..."
The black and white jade slips flickered for a moment, and finally another jade slip lit up.
However, this jade slip only records a few kinds of demonic insects and plants, all of which are species that live in the Illusionary Ruins Sea.
Fengxi didn't have time to worry about that now; she quickly looked up information about the Moon-Gazing Mother Moth.
In addition to what Commander Liu mentioned earlier, he also mentioned that when the mother moth lays eggs, she plants a divine imprint inside the eggs and then controls the offspring moths through the divine imprint.
Feng Xi: "..."
How come this is the same method used by the leader of the Heavenly Alliance?
Maybe the leader of the Heavenly Alliance learned it from this insect!
If that's the case, she could completely use her divine sense imprint to envelop the mother moth's divine sense imprint, acting as a shield.
This way, the mother moth can cut off the control of the daughter moths without being detected by the mother moth.
But that's too risky!
Once the divine imprint she left in the Ghost Guard's sea of consciousness is discovered, she will be exposed!
Therefore, this method will not work.
As she was thinking, something came to mind.
Back then, the Insect Emperor spent most of his time sleeping in the mines of the remnants of the Cloud Soaring Sect, only waking up once every thousand years, and then going into hibernation again after three months.
Why hasn't he gone into hibernation since he started dating her?
When she posed this question to the Insect King, the Insect King scratched his head with his claws:
"I do not know either!"
At this time, Commander Liu said:
"It may be related to the power of time. The Insect Emperor came from the Illusionary Ruins Sea, where the power of time is abundant."
When the Insect King was in the mine, although he had to eat a lot of divine stones to replenish his power of time every time he woke up, he could not maintain it for too long, so he could only choose to sleep.
After it forms a contract with you, because you cultivate the power of time, it no longer has this problem and naturally doesn't need to hibernate.
The same principle applies to the Northern Dipper Blood Lotus; it actively chooses you because of the power of time.
Fengxi's mind raced. "Master, if that's the case, there must be something or an array in this cave that releases the power of time, otherwise there would be no way to sustain the survival of the moths and phantom worm larvae."
"If I cut off the supply of the power of time, both types of larvae will enter a dormant state, right?"
"That's certainly true in theory."
Commander Liu thought to himself, "This brat is really smart!"
Fengxi immediately activated the Chaos Technique and scanned the entire cave.
Finally, they discovered a clue in a very hidden corner of the cave.
After activating the isolation array, she sat up and used her dagger to pry open the stones covering the surface, where she indeed found the Time Shuttle Stone.
It's only the size of a grain of rice.
Feng Xi couldn't help but purse her lips. The leader of the Bird Alliance was really stingy!
However, even a mosquito's leg is meat, so he decided to take it and put the Time-Spinning Stone into his storage ring.
How can I steal the Time-Traveling Stones from the other caves as well?
Fengxi thought of the Insect King.
This thing can become invisible, and it can also deter phantom worm larvae. In critical moments, it can even dig a hole to escape, making it the best choice for thieving worms.
Insect King: "..."
I haven't had a single good day since I started dating you!
They're either used as mounts, or they sing ditties; now they're even being used as thieves!
However, after Fengxi promised two purple beast cores, it immediately said indignantly:
"Master, even if you don't give me a reward, I will still do it!"
Because I must save my lost kin and stop them from aiding and abetting evil!
Fengxi thought to herself, "Your awareness is quite flexible!"
She didn't immediately send the Insect King to steal the Time-Traveling Stone, after all, the Ghost Guard was still lying in the cave!
She planned to have the Insect King make his move when the Ghost Guards went out to bask in the moonlight that night.
Having found a solution, she relaxed and quickly fell asleep.
I woke up in the afternoon.
She was awakened by screams.
The screams of the Ghost Guards echoed continuously from inside the cave, and Fengxi, wanting to fit in, had no choice but to join in.
Fan Lizhi and his group were no exception.
Shen Zhilan thought to herself, "Since joining the Shadow Guard Camp, I haven't learned anything else but how to scream."
It's all that damned Liu Yiyi's fault!
The screams continued until evening.
During this time, no one came to check, which was obviously a common occurrence.
After a while, the ghost guards jumped down from the cave and headed towards the exit.
Fengxi knew that they were going to bask in the moonlight again.
Besides being a characteristic of the moths, it's probably also the time when the Ghost Guardians are training.
After Ghost Guard and Fengxi left, the invisible Insect King began to dig for Time Shuttle Stones in each cave.
Its claws are so sharp that it can pry up rocks with ease...
Fengxi and the others had already started basking in the moonlight.
Shen Zhilan was starting to have second thoughts.
She secretly transmitted her voice to Fengxi, saying, "I don't think Ghost Guard is a good place. Let's find a chance to leave later!"
Fengxi asked her, "Where are you going if you leave? The Wind and Fire Tribes must be looking for us everywhere right now! If they catch us, we're definitely in big trouble!"
"We'll have to face it sooner or later; we can't keep hiding from it forever, can we?"
"You don't understand. We are the sinners now, and the Shadow Guard has occupied the moral high ground."
Once we disappear without a trace, Chengdao Hall can turn around and demand an explanation, since we were lost in the Shadow Guard Camp.
By then, the Shadow Guards will only be hoping for our arrival; settling scores will be secondary.
Besides, what's wrong with ghost guardians? They sleep all day and bask in the moonlight at night—what a healthy lifestyle!
Shen Zhilan: "..."
Only a pervert like you would think Ghost Guard is a good place!
But Fengxi wouldn't leave, so she had no choice but to suffer in silence.
When Fengxi and the others returned to the cave, the Insect King had already successfully completed his mission.
Before Fengxi could ask, the Insect King gave her the Time-Traveling Stone he had dug up.
Wooden Sword said slyly, "Big-bellied Grasshopper, I bet you've kept the Golden Pig's head hidden!"
Golden Pig: “…”
Insect King: "..."
You're so despicable!
The Insect King swore that he had not kept anything secret, and he was telling the truth.
Although it had considered keeping it for itself, it gave up the idea after considering the consequences.
Fengxi gave the wooden sword a good scolding, and then rewarded the Insect King with three purple beast cores.
The Insect King was so pleased with itself that it kept mooing and even showed off in front of the wooden sword.
The wooden sword was so angry it jumped around wildly!
Yes, it was an act.
Because Fengxi secretly gave it a purple beast core as a reward for its slanderous remarks.
A treacherous minister is good, a treacherous minister is wonderful, a treacherous minister in favor is absolutely fantastic!
Fengxi sent out a wisp of her divine sense to observe the situation of the ghost guards next door, and found nothing unusual.
This was to be expected, given that the Ghost Guardian still possessed residual power of time.
Now we can only wait.
While Fengxi was waiting, Commander Wan had already turned the Shadow Guard Camp upside down!
However, they still couldn't find Liu Yiyi and the others.
He even suspected they were no longer in the Shadow Guard camp.
He asked Venerable Fang, "Did you help them escape from the Shadow Guard Camp and hide in the Chengdao Hall?"
He only intended to bluff, but he didn't expect Venerable Fang to explode!
"Hey, you surnamed Wan, stop spouting nonsense!"
Our Chengdao Hall never does anything sneaky. On the contrary, your Shadow Guard Battalion can't even find ten living people. Are you kidding me?
"Hand him over to me right now, safe and sound, or I'll make you pay!"
Wow! After playing the submissive role for the past two days, I've finally regained the initiative!
