"Xueyao, I admit, your strength really is strong! There's really no need for us to fight to the death like this, because it's meaningless! How about this, just tell me the method you use to control these Gu Insects, and I'll immediately retreat with everyone, what do you think?"

Hearing Xiong Yan's words, Xueyao looked at him...

Xueyao found that he seemed composed, but in reality, his eyes betrayed a very subtle excitement.

Obviously, he was not as calm as he appeared...

In fact, Xueyao's guess was right!

Xiong Yan was really nervous right now because he truly longed for Xueyao's cultivation method...

Previously, in Xiong Yan's mind, a Wizard could only cultivate one kind of Gu Insect in a lifetime...

But now, Xiong Yan had discovered that Xueyao had broken this rule.

He was very eager to learn Xueyao's cultivation method.

He knew that once he could acquire this cultivation method, he would be able to control even more Gu Insects.

By then, his strength would increase twofold...

When that time came, Xueyao would not possibly be his opponent anymore.

...

"Don't agree to him, don't agree to him at all!"

Hearing Xiong Yan's persuasive words, the watching Wizards were muttering under their breath!

They were not fools!

They knew if this cultivation method really fell into Xiong Yan's hands, then the difficulty for themselves to obtain it would be too great.

Xueyao sneered and said with a laugh, "You want me to tell you the method? That can be arranged! However, as an exchange, shouldn't you also tell me your method of evolving the Gu Insects?"

Upon hearing Xueyao agree to give up the method, he laughed...

But his expression quickly turned ugly because he heard Xueyao make a demand he could not accept...

After a vigorous twitch of the eyelid, Xiong Yan darkly said, "What... what do you mean? It is only that I want you to tell me your method, and you demand a return? Are you really not afraid that I will destroy you?"

Looking at him, Xueyao was full of disdain...

"What a joke! If you had that ability, you wouldn't be wasting time talking here with me. Now, if there's nothing else, get lost!"

After the earlier probing, Xueyao knew her Gu Insects and his were evenly matched, so she couldn't win against him, but he couldn't win against her either, so continuing this conversation was just pointless bickering...

...

"You... Fine! Fine! Fine! Since you really seek death, then I shall fulfill you! Let you see just how formidable Gu Insects in their prime state can be."

After saying this, full of resentment, he quickly closed his eyes!

When he opened his eyes again, his face had turned slightly pale...

He opened his mouth quickly and spat out a mouthful of blood...

"My children, come! The time to enhance strength has arrived!"

As he spat out the blood, he called frantically.

In an instant, those golden Gu Insects that had been wildly biting Xueyao's were buzzing rapidly as they returned.

Soon, they greedily swallowed the fresh blood altogether.

"They've turned blood-colored!"

"Their aura has become so much more terrifying!"

Watching those originally golden Gu Insects turn crimson from absorbing fresh blood, all the watching Wizards' faces slightly changed.

They did not know by how much the Gu Insects' strength had increased after absorbing the fresh blood, but they felt that their aura had become way more frightening than before.

"This time, I'm afraid Xueyao really won't be able to hold on!"

"I feel the same way!"

"Me too! But there's nothing that can be done, after evolution, the Gu Insects truly cannot be contended with by ordinary ones."

"Yes!"

Hearing all the Wizards muttering, Xueyao laughed, and in that instant, she once again became the center of everyone's attention.

"She... she's laughing again? Does that mean she has another trump card?"

"Impossible!"

"I also think so!"

Seeing Xueyao laugh, after several twitches at the corners of their eyes, they all muttered to themselves!

Just now, Xueyao had summoned the terrifyingly formidable Gu Insects after such a laugh...

So, seeing Xueyao laugh again, they all felt somewhat afraid!

Hearing those Wizards' whispers, the confident Xiong Yan's pupils shrank slightly too.

He too was feeling a little uneasy, he knew that he had now laid all his cards on the table.

So, if Xueyao had any other trump cards, then today he might really be brought down here...

...

"Impossible, she can't possibly have any more trump cards, impossible!"

Shan Hu watched Xueyao laugh and muttered darkly.

Just now, he had confidently stated that Xueyao's Gu Insects were dead...

But the result was a harsh slap to his face from Xueyao.

Now, he spoke again coldly; he did not believe Xueyao could slap his face again.

Xueyao saw everyone staring blankly at her and chuckled lightly!

Soon, puckering her lips slightly, she began to call for help, "Xiaobei, where are you? Someone is bullying me now, you have to stand up for me!"

With that remark, everyone was utterly dumbfounded...

"What... What's happening? Is she just calling for reinforcements?"

"Exactly!"

"I can't figure out this tactic at all!"

Seeing everyone puzzled, Xueyao didn't seem to have any intention of explaining. Instead, she continued with a somewhat wronged tone, "Xiaobei, didn't you hear? Someone is bullying your auntie here. If you don't come now, it's going to be tragic for me."

"Alright, Auntie, I'm coming, coming already!"

With a somewhat helpless reply, Hu Xiaobei rose from his seat...

Originally, Hu Xiaobei had planned to bask in the sun a little longer before stepping in, but now, he knew that was hopeless.

As Hu Xiaobei walked out somewhat dejected, Xue Lianlian and the others chuckled. Before, they had been nervous upon seeing that deep red Gu Insect, but now, they knew there was no need to be.

...

"Is Hu Xiaobei her final trump card?"

Seeing Hu Xiaobei appear lazily, Xiong Yan muttered to himself. At the same time, he breathed a sigh of relief!

He knew if this was indeed the final trump card, then there really wasn't much to worry about...

Standing next to Xiong Yan, Xiong Wei and Shan Hu quickly stood up.

Sworn enemies' eyes blaze upon sighting each other!

Now, seeing their nemesis, they were as excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood.

"You don't take the heavenly road, and bring yourself through the doorless Hell!"

With such an excited laugh, Xiong Wei eagerly looked at Xiong Yan, saying, "Grandpa, now that Hu Xiaobei has come out, let me grab him. I want to kill him bit by bit! I want to make him regret crossing me."

Hearing such agitated words, Xiong Yan glanced at Xiong Wei and coldly said, "I know what to do, just stay put and quiet!"

"Yes!"

As he obediently nodded his head, Xiong Wei touched his swollen face...

He knew his grandfather had a volatile temper.

So, he didn't dare to keep talking.

Because he knew if he kept talking now, the other side of his face would definitely also end up swollen...

...

"Before, I always heard that this Hu Xiaobei was not simple. Now, I really want to see if he truly has three heads and six arms."

As he watched Hu Xiaobei come closer, Xiong Yan sneered...

Before, he had heard from his grandson that Hu Xiaobei was not simple, so he was somewhat curious and wanted to see just how extraordinary he was.

While Xiong Yan stared coldly, Hu Xiaobei had already reached Xueyao's side.

Under everyone's gaze, Xueyao expressed her grievances to Hu Xiaobei, "Xiaobei, they are bullying me, and I can't beat them, so you must help me!"

Hu Xiaobei looked at her pouting lips, his mouth twitching. Soon, Hu Xiaobei quietly said, "Auntie, this... what's going on? This isn't like you!"

Hearing Hu Xiaobei speak somewhat dejectedly, Xueyao giggled and said, "I don't care. After all, you're my backup. Now that there's a problem, you have to come and handle it."

In the past, because there was no one else she could rely on, she had to deal with everything herself!

But now, she knew she didn't need to be so tired anymore, because now she had arms that she could rely on.

Seeing that Xueyao was playing the spoiled child, Hu Xiaobei waved his hands and said, "Fine, fine, I'll handle it! You go enjoy the sun!"

"Okay!"

After vigorously nodding her head, Xueyao quickly turned around. Soon, under everyone's watchful eyes, she left with the Gu Insect...

...

Watching Xueyao decisively walk away, the Wizards were a bit dumbfounded...

"Is she that confident in Hu Xiaobei? Could this Hu Xiaobei really be that reliable?"

"Exactly! He looks so ordinary!"

"No kidding!"

They murmured incredulously. Since earlier, they had been carefully observing Hu Xiaobei.

They found that Hu Xiaobei indeed appeared very ordinary, so in their view, it was simply impossible for him to defeat Xiong Yan...

Hearing everyone's doubts, Xiong Yan sneered repeatedly...

"It seems that the eyes of the masses are indeed snow-bright!"

After sneering, he arrogantly glanced at Hu Xiaobei and said coldly, "So you are Hu Xiaobei?"

With a calm smile, Hu Xiaobei quietly responded, "That's me! Seems like my reputation isn't too shabby, huh? You've heard of me!"

"Yes, I've heard of you! My good-for-nothing grandson was taught a lesson by you before, wasn't he?"

"That did happen! But you don't need to be too upset, I just gave him a light punishment to make him remember. Otherwise, with his attitude, he would really end up in serious trouble later on."

Xiong Wei, upon hearing Hu Xiaobei's taunt, felt his blood boil, "You..."

Hearing his angry retort, Xiong Yan turned his head and said coldly, "Shut up!"

After saying that, he turned back to Hu Xiaobei, his expression darkening as he said coldly, "Yes, my grandson is naive, but he's my grandson. You directly taught him a lesson, isn't that a bit too disrespectful to me?"

"It's indeed showing disrespect, why should I respect you? Who the hell are you, anyway?"

"Hiss..."

All those present took a sharp intake of breath upon hearing Hu Xiaobei's brash words.

"Damn, that's audacious!"

"You're telling me!"

In everyone's shock, Xiong Yan burst into laughter, "It's been many years since anyone dared to speak to me like this! I'll remember you! Once I capture you, I won't kill you outright. I'll bring you back and hang you at the city gate for public display."

Hearing this ominous threat, Hu Xiaobei nonchalantly curled his lip, "If you could catch me, you could do as you please, but too bad, you won't have that chance!"

"Not a chance? Then let me see your true capabilities!"

Sneering, Xiong Yan quickly waved his hand. In an instant, the already aggressive blood-red Gu Insects rapidly charged towards Hu Xiaobei...
